Chapter 78: Is This Using Us for Practice?

"Fine, fine, fine, I know..."

Jiang Che, having been shaken awake, looked up and rolled his eyes at Luo Shuiyan.

Dealing with these small-fry on the opposite side, Jiang Che could end the battle quickly with his current strength.

Originally, he had intended to finish work early and call it a day, but now he could only let Lin Xue'er and the others get some practice in.

"Everyone, charge! We three must not lose face for our boss!"

Xiaohu summoned the aura of his position as the Hall Master of Weihu Hall and said this to Cailin and Yindiao beside him.

"Roar!"

A roar that resounded through the mountain forest erupted, and Little Tiger transformed.

From a size barely larger than a cat, he leaped and grew to over a meter in length.

Although this size was not considered large among Spirit Beasts...

It could even be called small among tiger-type Spirit Beasts, just like an underage one.

But regardless, it was still more imposing than that cute appearance from the beginning.

Moreover, the markings on his body emitted ripples of fluorescent light, and his muscles were well-defined and extremely sturdy.

After all, as a tiger-type Spirit Beast, even if Little Tiger belonged to the underage category, he still possessed an impressive aura.

What's more, Hu Xiaoxiao had an extraordinary background, and her Spirit Beast's bloodline was likewise no small matter, only it hadn't been fully activated yet.

Cailin also transformed into her true form, becoming a Seven-Colored Heaven-Swallowing Python several meters long.

With one tiger and one snake standing there, their aura was indeed much stronger than before.

It was just that Yindiao was a bit awkward; his body had only grown to twice its original size.

But even so, he was still a size smaller than a small pet dog...

The four members of 'Wolf Walks the World' likewise summoned their respective Spirit Beasts directly.

The four people's Spirit Beasts were all around the thirties in level; in terms of cultivation realm, Little Tiger and the other two Spirit Beasts were not weak.

It was just that the strength of the three Beast Tamers, Lin Xue'er and her companions, was quite a bit worse than the four opponents.

'Wolf Walks the World' lived up to its name; all four of their Spirit Beasts were canine-type.

A level thirty-five Red Fire Dog, over two meters in size, had black fur all over its body like steel needles.

Its four claws were burning with raging flames, leaving a trail of ash in the forest wherever it passed.

Little Tiger let out an angry roar and charged directly to engage the Red Fire Dog that had rushed to the very front of the opposing side.

Although the Red Fire Dog's size was quite a bit larger than Little Tiger's.

The dignity of being a fierce tiger made Little Tiger abandon dodging and choose to clash head-on.

For a time, the tiger and the dog fought together, and the surrounding trees were sent flying in all directions under their fierce attacks.

The Seven-Colored Heaven-Swallowing Python, meanwhile, sought out a level thirty-four Stone-Armored Dog whose body was constructed as if from rock.

This Stone-Armored Dog was even larger, a full three meters long.

Its body had a layer of armor like rock, and its defensive power was extremely strong!

Bang! Bang! Bang! The Seven-Colored Heaven-Swallowing Python, relying on the tough scales on its body, also chose to attack head-on.

Bursts of booming sounds rang out, like muffled thunder.

The smallest of them, Yindiao, also encountered an opponent.

At this moment, in front of Yindiao was a level thirty-three Phantom Fox with red fur, similar in size to him.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! The two just locked eyes, and immediately a series of air-piercing sounds rang out in the field.

Both Spirit Beasts were agility-based, and for a time, white and purple figures constantly intertwined in the mountain forest.

As the two figures swept past, ancient trees were shattered into pieces out of thin air.

Lin Xue'er and the other two also joined the battlefield, assisting their Spirit Beasts to fight against the opposing Beast Tamers.

As for the captains of both sides, they both stood where they were.

At Lang Sanping's feet was a silver-white giant wolf over a meter tall and three meters long!

On the forehead of this giant wolf, one could see a silver-white crescent moon mark; it was exactly a level thirty-six Moon-Howling Wolf!

The Moon-Howling Wolf's pair of emerald-green pupils emitted a chilling coldness as they stared fixedly at Luo Shuiyan's movements.

"Junior sister, just a freshman, yet you actually dare to come and participate in the Selection Tournament. You really have quite a lot of nerve." "It's just a pity, this Selection Tournament looks at strength, not at pretty faces; even if you look good, it's useless."

While speaking, Lang Sanping hooked the corner of his mouth into a cold sneer and twisted his neck, making the sound of joints clicking.

"Today I will let you see that the seniors in their fourth year haven't been loafing around for these three-plus years at the academy!"

As his voice fell, the Four-Star Spirit-Grade Beast Master Lang Sanping instantly erupted with astonishing speed and charged toward Luo Shuiyan.

And the Moon-Howling Wolf at his feet had even greater speed, almost arriving in front of Luo Shuiyan in a single flash.

The Moon-Howling Wolf let out a long howl toward the sky and raised its claws to swipe at Luo Shuiyan.

One could see that on its sharp wolf claws, several streaks of ghostly blue light flashed, accompanied by a terrifying wind-breaking sound.

Luo Shuiyan's eyes narrowed; she did not choose to clash head-on, and her figure instantly vanished from where she stood like a ghost.

Several streaks of ghostly blue divine light slammed into the spot where Luo Shuiyan had just been standing, instantly smashing several gullies into the ground.

"Fire Phoenix Cry!"

While dodging, Luo Shuiyan raised her hand and a Flame Phoenix flew out.

It instantly slammed into the Moon-Howling Wolf, which had just landed and had no time to turn around.

That massive Moon-Howling Wolf was actually sent flying directly by her, crashing through several ancient trees before stopping.

The fur on its body, originally silver, became charred black under the burning of the flames.

"This woman's combat power is not ordinary!"

Luo Shuiyan's ghostly movement technique and her instantaneous spell-casting speed finally made Lang Sanping wary.

"You three! Hurry up and finish them off!"

Lang Sanping knew that Lin Xue'er and the other two were actually the weak link of this squad, as there was a large gap in cultivation realm between them.

The other three nodded upon hearing this, and immediately launched even more ferocious attacks.

For a time, the pressure on Lin Xue'er and the other two, who were already at a disadvantage, increased sharply.

"Lu-la-la-lu-la-lu-la!"

Just at this moment, a strange singing voice rang out in the arena.

Seeing that Lin Xue'er and the other two were struggling more and more, Jiang Che finally unleashed his skill, activating the buffing Kirin Anthem.

With the support of Jiang Che's skill, the strength of Lin Xue'er, the other two, and the three Spirit Beasts including Little Tiger increased greatly, finally stabilizing the battle.

"I feel like my body is filled with power! Roar!"

Little Tiger let out a roar, and the muscles all over his body became even more developed.

Although he had multiple wounds on his body burned by flames, his aura at this moment was even more formidable than before! With his strength greatly increased, he actually forced the opposing Red Fire Dog to retreat step by step for a time!

Cailin and Yindiao also had their defense and speed bolstered by Jiang Che's support.

"This! There is actually a team buff skill?!"

The academy elders who were overseeing the battle in the sky were shocked beyond measure at this moment.

One must know that this kind of group augmentation skill is the most scarce in team combat.

"It is time to use our weapons!"

Luo Shuiyan reminded them aloud.

Relying on the strength of Lin Xue'er and the other two, it was still somewhat difficult to level the playing field with just one buff skill.

If it were before, they would not have dared to use their Dharma Treasure.

But now that they had Elder Guo as their backing, there was no need to worry about anything.

The three of them unleashed their respective Dharma Treasure, and their combat power increased instantly; the Dharma Treasure in their hands emitted formidable divine radiance!

Originally only Advanced Beast Master, they were now able to exert combat power comparable to a Spirit-level Beast Master under the augmentation of their Dharma Treasure!

"This woman seems to be training her troops!"

"She is using the 'Wolf Roams the World' members as whetstones to cultivate the squad's synergy?!"

Someone on the high platform noticed the clues.

For a moment, the expressions of the people around changed slightly.

One must know that this was a freshman team fighting against a senior team, and under the circumstances where the gap in strength was so large.

To still be able to issue orders so calmly, and even want to use the opponent as a whetstone! This woman is truly somewhat terrifying! (End of chapter)
