Chapter 138: Chapter 137: Deep Emotions, Stifling in One Breath
Translator: 549690339
Xiao Yuan pondered for a mont and said, “Since you’ve chosen your newly contracted pet, I’ll pick my fourth pet beast.”
The blue array flickered, and a completely pitch-black creature appeared on one side of the balance.
This pet beast was completely covered in sharply defined armor, its limbs were robust and powerful, and its mouth was full of tusks, giving off a ferocious aura just by standing there.
[Na]: Ink Dragon Louse
[Nature]: Insect System
[Bloodline Level]: Low-level Lord
[Pet Beast Growth Level]: Third Stage three level
[Introduction]: It has both the powerful vitality of insect-like creatures and the offensive power of beast-like creatures. Despite its combative nature, it is not impulsive. It’s rumored to have a trace of the dragon bloodline, making it the first choice for many Insect System Beast Masters.
Good gracious, even his fourth pet beast is already at the third stage. Xiao Yuan’s strength is indeed formidable.
Under the guidance of the female receptionist, Bai Qi placed Gamma on the other side of the balance. The pointer in the middle of the balance began swaying from left to right before leaning towards the side of the Ink Dragon Louse.
The gap between a low-level elite and a low-level lord, a first-stage second level and a third-stage three level, was indeed huge.
However, soon a black and a gold piece, each fell onto the two ends of the balance, gradually evening out what initially was uneven.
“Alright, the growth levels of both your pet beasts have been balanced at second stager level 5, and the bloodline levels have been balanced at high-grade elites. Now, you can pick the type of battlefield.”
The receptionist said with a smile, “Do you two have any preferred battlegrounds? If not, you can choose a random one.”
Xiao Yuan glanced at Bai Qi’s puzzled face, gave a slight smile, and said, “Since this is your first ti here, Bai Qi, let’s choose a random battlefield.”
“Alright, I don’t mind.”
Bai Qi was as calm as water, not caring about Xiao Yuan’s arrangents at all. This attitude only made Xiao Yuan respect him more.
A person who could form a friendly relationship with a mythical creature, he remained calm even when faced with unfamiliar circumstances.
“Alright, then a random battlefield it is. Please expedite.”
“Sure.”
The receptionist nodded and moved quickly. Bai Qi, however, stood there dazed, lost in his own thoughts.
Probably because of Xiao Ding, their battle setting was arranged quickly. The crowd had already flocked in front of the broadcast screen in the hall.
One was the Moon Night Tower Chief’s grandson, the other, a rising star who was gaining popularity recently. Therefore, their battle naturally attracted a lot of attention.
Bai Qiucha gazed at the two profiles on the screen and asked, “Yan, do you think Bai Qi can win against Xiao Yuan?”
Zhou Yan shrugged and replied, “I’m not sure. If Xiao Yuan were fighting soone else, I’d definitely back him. But since his opponent is Bai Qi, it’s sohow hard to predict.”
Quietly, Bai Qiucha remained silent while Gu Shan on her side continuously nodded.
Although his combat experience was not as much as Zhou Yan’s, he could firmly say that Bai Qi was the most unpredictable Beast Master he knew.
In his experience, he had never seen a Beast Master who could play with his pet beast’s abilities so elaborately.
“Hmm, it has started.”
While they were talking, the scene on the screen changed, zooming in on Bai Qi and Xiao Yuan’s battlefield.
“Is that… a volcano battlefield?”
Looking at the slowly flowing magma on the screen, Zhou Yan couldn’t help but sigh.
“Such bad luck for Bai Qi. This battlefield severely limits Sli’s abilities. Even without the Ink Dragon Louse’s attack, Sli will probably get damaged by the surrounding heat,” lanted Bai Qiucha.
She continued, “Then again, the Ink Dragon Louse belongs to the Insect System, and a fire attribute landscape won’t be easy on it either.”
“However, if I recall correctly, Xiao Yuan’s Ink Dragon Louse has the ability of limb regeneration.”
“This battle, will be testing who can withstand the longest.”
With that said, a hint of regret flashed over Bai Qiucha’s face.
To say who was better at fighting a protracted battle amongst the younger generation of the headquarters, probably no one could surpass Xiao Yuan. After all, he was the only one capable of reaching a draw with Zhou Yan.
Volcano Battlefield.
Bai Qi wiped off the sweat from his face and looked at the lifelike battlefield in front of him…
Wait, this was literally a volcano!
After forcibly balancing the strength of the two fighters, followed by this real- life battlefield, Bai Qi felt like he was Liu Laolao when she went into the Grand View Garden, completely perplexed.
City folks sure know how to be fanciful.
“It seems like both of us are not so lucky, ending up with this kind of battlefield,” Xiao Yuan surveyed the surroundings and looking at the Ink Dragon Louse, unaffected by the high temperatures and then to Sli which lied flat on the ground, he offered, “Or, shall we change to a more standard battlefield?”
Bai Qi waved his hand, “No need, let’s just proceed as usual.”
Due to his previous feeding shenanigans, Gamma had acquired fla resistance. However, at only beginner proficiency, it almost lted as soon as it entered the volcanic area.
Luckily, Gamma had, due to the balance, forcibly increased both its bloodline level and growth level hence it did not suffer a critical blow. On the contrary, its proficiency was rapidly increasing at a pace visible to the naked eye.
Another good thod to improve proficiency was discovered…
“That’s the case, thenl won’t show any courtesy,” Xiao Yuan smiled and said, “InkDragon Louse, use Ripping Claw!”
Sizzle…
The Ink Dragon Louse growled lowly, instantly transforming into a bolt of black lightning, appearing in front of Sli. As its claws swiped, it aid to tear Sli into pieces.
The most famous attribute of the Sli, as a mber of the Alien Series, is its fluid body. Because of this, a sli can swallow anything. However, correspondingly, its physical defense is extrely weak.
It seed like the Sli wouldn’t be able to dodge the Ink-Dragon Lice’s attack in ti.
“Is it over just like that?”
Looking at how Gamma was stretched to the limit in the claws of the Ink- Dragon Lice, the audience outside seed sowhat disappointed.
Initially, they held so unexplainable expectations for Bai Qi’s Sli, hoping to see so surprising performance. It seed that they had been overthinking it.
“Uh, why hasn’t this Sli split yet?”
Just as so viewers were about to switch settings, soone suddenly noticed sothing.
At that mont, Gamma was being stretched freely in the claws of the Ink- Dragon Lice, but it hadn’t shown any signs of breaking. Unaware people might have even thought the Ink-Dragon Lice was playing with a rubber band.
Toughness. It was an ability the Sli enhanced after absorbing the skin of an Earthshaking Bull Demon. Even though it hadn’t ford into a skill, it surely had improved a lot.
At the very least, it wouldn’ t be torn apart easily by any ordinary skill.
“I knew it, this Sli isn’t ordinary!”
Contrary to the surprise of the audience, Xiao Yuan wasn’t at all shocked by the Sli’s performance and considered it quite natural.
“Ink-Dragon Lice, Shadow Thorn Stab!”
Upon hearing the order, the Ink-Dragon Lice curled up imdiately. A stream of pitch-black liquid flowed from its armor and quickly spread to the Sli’s surroundings, enveloping it.
Soon after, in a place invisible to the crowd, a series of spikes made of shadow energy pierced Gamma’s body instantly and split the Sli under the drag of the Ink-Dragon Lice, like a sharp blade.
The toughness hadn’t ford into a skill yet. Even if it had, it would be quite difficult to withstand the Shadow Departnt Power.
“Hmm…I forgot to train Gamma’s Shadow Resistance. In the future, I need to raise a few more Elental Skeletons to practice with it.”
Looking at the dismbered Gamma, Bai Qi smacked his lips without any worry about Gamma’s condition.
Only tens of fragnts. Even Beta was better than that. It wasn’t good enough.
“Has Bai Qi gone mad? His pet beast is being torn apart and he’s so calm.”
“I rember Slis can reorganize themselves after being torn apart. Maybe Bai Qi thinks the sa?”
“But, have you ever seen a creature survive after being corroded by Shadow Departnt Power?”
“Uh, no, I haven’t.”
Seeing the chunks of green jelly being corroded by the Shadow Departnt Power, again the viewers were disheartened.
On the one hand, there was the corrosion of the Shadow Departnt Power. On the other, there was the burning of volcanic magma. If the Sli could withstand that, it would be a big surprise.
Just monts ago, they thought Bai Qi was going to show sothing new and amazing, but this was the result.
“Um, it seems like sothing has changed again.”
That familiar voice echoed once more with the students turning their gaze to the screen again. Upon seeing the slowly gathering Sli, they were stunned.
It could even resist the Shadow Departnt Power?
Gulp Gulp?
(Master, what is this? Why does it taste so bitter?)
After being “dismbered” by the Shadow Thorn Stab, Gamma finally woke up slowly. It controlled its body to gather rapidly while steadily digesting the Shadow Departnt Power inside of it.
“Do not worry, eat it if you can. Kids should not be picky eaters!”
Gulp Gulp!
(Alright, Master.)
Gamma shook its body a bit. The Shadow Departnt Power inside its body was swallowed at a speed visible to the naked eye and its body beca green again.
Seeing this performance of Gamma’s, Xiao Yuan felt no more relaxed than before and commanded Ink-Dragon Lice to use the Shadow Thorn Stab again.
As expected, the Shadow Departnt Power was swallowed by the Sli once again, and it coincided with the birth of the Shadow Resistance.
“I never thought that a Sli could have such strong vitality. I was underestimating you.”
Xiao Yuan’s face grew solemn, and he said, “In that case, I have to exert my real strength.”
As soon as he said this, a red light flashed in Xiao Yuan’s eyes. The originally firm eyes of the Ink-Dragon Lice turned completely red, and its montum also surged.
Beast Master Talent: Berserk.
This can make pet beasts enter a berserk state, elevating all attributes and skills, then bursting out hundreds of percent of their power.
Afterward, the Ink-Dragon Lice curled up into a ball shape again, and the Shadow Departnt Power flowed out but didn’t attack Gamma actively. Instead, it stuck to the armor of the Ink-Dragon Lice, much like spikes.
“Ink-Dragon Lice, Thorny Chariot!”
At Xiao Yuan’s command, the Ink-Dragon Lice quickly started spinning. The shadow spikes on its body transford into rapidly rotating blades as it charged at Gamma.
Under this density of attack, Gamma would be split into thousands or even tens of thousands of fragnts. Xiao Yuan couldn’t believe that Bai Qi’s Sli could survive this.
Finally, in the eager eyes of many, the Ink-Dragon Lice violently ramd into Gamma.
However, the brutal scene people had expected to see did not happen. Instead, Ink-Dragon Lice was engulfed by suddenly expanding Gamma, spinning in place.
It felt like, it went down in one gulp.
“Why am I not surprised at all…”
Watching Gamma, which had swallowed the Ink-Dragon Lice in one gulp, Bai Qiucha and Zhou Yan looked at each other; there was no surprise to be found in their eyes.
