Chapter 102
Su Yang strode onto the competition field. Once he was on the field, he noticed that the surrounding audience was growing larger and larger!
"Hurry up, Dai Yun is about to go on stage. If we're too slow, his opponent might already be defeated!"
"Go Dai Yun!"
"Where is Seven Stars City? Never heard of it!"
"Dai Yun's opponent looks so young; he's definitely going to win!"
"What do you mean? Dai Yun's strength is so great that he can win against any opponent!"
"Right, as long as he doesn't face a Gold-grade beastmaster, he's sure to win. He's our Changwu City's genius!"
"I support Dai Yun, after all, I'm from Changwu City!"
"Go Dai Yun!"
"..."
Su Yang had sharp ears and keen eyes, so he could clearly hear what the surrounding audience was saying.
Anyway, he had a preliminary impression of Dai Yun: good strength, many supporters!
But Su Yang didn't take it to heart; after all, Dai Yun was a local!
If the tournament were in Seven Stars City, he would have just as many supporters.
Soon, Su Yang saw Dai Yun.
He had a fresh look, was tall and thin, and quite handsome; he was probably eighteen or nineteen years old.
As soon as Dai Yun appeared, the whole arena was filled with cheers for him!
Dai Yun smiled slightly and waved at the audience, causing another wave of commotion.
"Dai Yun smiled at me!"
"Go Dai Yun!"
"You'll definitely win!"
"..."
Seeing both of them standing in position, the referee immediately announced the competition rules.
"Now, release your pet beasts!"
Dai Yun waved his hand, and a blue hawk flew into the sky.
Immediately after, a giant troll ape appeared beside him!
A girl exclaimed, "It's here, Brother Dai Yun's Azure Cloud Hawk!"
Su Yang scanned the two pet beasts the opponent had released.
Flying in the sky was the Azure Cloud Hawk, a wind-type long-range attacker, Silver-grade peak strength, with Platinum-grade peak growth potential.
That giant troll ape was also quite strong, a metal-type melee fighter, possessing Silver-grade peak strength, also with Platinum-grade peak growth potential.
Dai Yun's family background must be very good.
Otherwise, he couldn't have brought out two excellent pet beasts with Platinum-grade peak growth potential right from the start.
Su Yang released the Storm Eagle, and the moment it appeared, it attracted everyone's attention.
After all, the Storm Eagle was a bit huge; with a thirty-meter wingspan, the same-level Azure Cloud Hawk looked like a dwarf in front of it!
A spectator remarked, "Being big doesn't mean being strong!"
However, some beastmasters watching the match had their expressions turn serious upon seeing the Storm Eagle.
They whispered, "It looks like Dai Yun's opponent won't be easy to deal with!"
One beastmaster whispered, "The opponent seems to be Gold-grade!"
In an instant, the beastmasters around who heard this were stunned...
Seeing Su Yang's Storm Eagle, Huo Kun smiled.
Seeing that Su Yang made no further moves, the referee asked, "Are you both ready?"
Su Yang replied, "Ready!"
"Wait!" Dai Yun said. "You're at least Silver-grade, right? You still have another pet beast, don't you?"
"Depends on your strength!"
"Are you looking down on me?"
Dai Yun stared fixedly at Su Yang, his expression extremely unpleasant.
Su Yang felt that Dai Yun was being a bit sensitive.
It was his freedom to choose how many pet beasts to fight with!
"I didn't mean that. If I need it, I'll bring it out!"
"Fine, very well!" Dai Yun said with a cold laugh. "I hope you'll still have the chance to use it by then!"
Feng Feng Guangyao, who was watching from the sidelines, whispered, "It seems Su Yang intends to use only two pet beasts again!"
"To this day, I still don't know what his third pet beast is; I only know his fourth is the Seven-Colored Psychedelic Butterfly!" Ge Le'an turned to ask Huo Kun, "Captain, do you know?"
"No, no one has ever seen it. It might be his trump card!"
Huo Kun looked at Su Yang on the competition field and said, "Su Yang is now a Gold-grade beastmaster, and his eagle pet already possesses Gold-grade low-tier strength. Perhaps the pet beast he's hiding as a trump card is also Gold-grade!"
Ge Le'an couldn't help but complain, "I hate this kind of beastmaster who isn't being honest!"
Feng Feng Guangyao nodded in agreement.
Just then, the referee announced the start of the match!
Before the battle had even begun, the Changwu City people watching from the sidelines noticed that Su Yang only had one pet beast beside him.
"Is Dai Yun's opponent looking for death? Why not bring out his full strength? Could he be a Bronze-grade beastmaster?"
"Exactly, to not go all out at a time like this, and his opponent is our Changwu City's third-place finisher; not bringing out all his pet beasts is simply courting his own destruction!"
"..."
Just as these spectators were mocking Su Yang for courting his own destruction, they suddenly heard a scream.
Dai Yun's Azure Cloud Hawk spun and fell from the sky, then hit the ground heavily and didn't move again!
The spectators, who had been noisy just a moment ago, fell into instant silence.
It was as if they had all been choked by the throat at the same time!
Ge Le'an asked in a low voice, "Did you see that?"
Feng Feng Guangyao shook his head, "No, just a blur; my eyes couldn't keep up with its speed!"
Ge Le'an asked Huo Kun again, "Captain, did you see it?"
"Yes, I saw it!"
Ge Le'an smiled, "As expected, the Captain is still the best!"
Huo Kun smiled awkwardly.
He had indeed seen it!
He had seen a blur...
Seeing the situation was bad, Dai Yun immediately ordered, "Giant Troll Ape, go!"
As he said this, he also charged wildly toward Su Yang.
With his Azure Cloud Hawk instantly killed, Dai Yun no longer dared to underestimate Su Yang.
He was very clear now: he had to take Su Yang down before the opponent's eagle pet could provide support!
Only then would he have a hope of winning!
Dai Yun was arrogant, but he wasn't a fool. No one who could make it into the top three in the talent-rich Changwu City was a fool!
"Go Dai Yun!"
"Take him down!"
"Take him down quickly!"
"..."
When the Azure Cloud Hawk lost its combat ability and Dai Yun charged at Su Yang with the Giant Troll Ape, all the spectators knew that the battle had reached its most critical moment.
If he could finish off Su Yang before that eagle pet returned, Dai Yun could win.
If he waited for that powerful eagle pet to return for support, Dai Yun's chances of winning would be greatly reduced!
Therefore, they began to cheer for Dai Yun!
Facing the charge of the Giant Troll Ape and Dai Yun, Su Yang appeared somewhat nonchalant.
