Chapter 176: What Do You Think?
Chapter 176: What Do You Think?
"Flame Fang!" Wang Anqiang's face lit up with joy as he issued the command.
Blazefang's expression turned fierce, the flames enveloping its fangs suddenly intensifying, and a wild, heated aura spread from its fangs.
Without mercy, it lunged toward Fangy, its movements tinged with a mix of frustration and anger.
"This Flame Fang is nearly at mastery level, isn't it?" someone in the audience remarked enviously.
For ordinary Beastmasters like them, who had no background or resources, achieving mastery in a familiar's skill required not only long-term training and breakthroughs during critical moments but also the familiar's inherent talent.
Without resources, if a familiar had mediocre talent, it was almost certain that it would never achieve a mastery-level skill in its lifetime.
Everyone was in the same environment, and Wang Anqiang was not particularly old. Yet, Blazefang's inherited skill was about to reach mastery, which was truly enviable.
"Why isn't Flame Listener moving?" Lin Yuanqi felt anxious.
If anyone in the room was rooting for Qiao Sang to win, it was him.
"Flame Fang."
Just as Blazefang was about to pounce on Fangy, Qiao Sang calmly issued the command.
"The command was too slow", the woman with glasses shook her head.
"He should have chosen to dodge", the slightly overweight man beside her frowned.
"He should have used a skill like Flame Jet to stop it from advancing", someone else chimed in with a different opinion.
Most of the people present were sparring partners, and they habitually analyzed the customers' performances. Without exception, they all thought Qiao Sang's command was subpar.
The next second, the group fell silent as they realized their mistake.
Just as Blazefang was about to sink its fangs into Fangy, Flame Listener didn't retaliate with a violent bite. Instead, it took flight...
"Damn! What's going on?!"
Flame Listener was a Fire Familiar, so why was it flying? Everyone was stunned.
Wang Anqiang was equally bewildered, and for a moment, he forgot to issue a command when he saw Flame Listener appear behind Blazefang.
"Ah!"
Blazefang's fangs bit into thin air, producing a sharp, metallic sound.
Its fangs' flames dissipated as it looked up, only to feel a sudden, intense pain in its back.
"Fire!!"
Blazefang let out a pained screech.
"Good heavens, is this Flame Fang at perfection?!"
The person who had previously envied Blazefang's near-mastery Flame Fang shot up from his seat, his face filled with disbelief as he stared at the center of the arena.
In the arena, Fangy's Flame Fang was not just a simple fiery bite. The flames condensed in front of its fangs, extending over a meter in length.
The air was thick with violent and raging Fire Energy, a crimson glow condensing into two menacing, scythe-like flames in front of its fangs.
Rolling heat waves surrounded the flame scythes, making them resemble the weapons of death, albeit in red.
Fangy's fangs never touched Blazefang. The scythe-like flames merely grazed Blazefang's body, and the next moment, Blazefang let out a heart-wrenching scream.
"Boom!!"
The scythe-shaped Flame Fang exploded without warning.
A Flame Wave radiated outward from the fallen scythe, and scorching tongues of fire quickly engulfed Blazefang's entire body.
Blazefang held on for three seconds before collapsing.
Everyone was speechless.
Damn!
This wasn't just a regular Flame Fang!
Perfection!
This was a Flame Fang at the perfection level of proficiency!
The audience had not yet recovered from the shock of seeing Flame Listener fly, and this display of Flame Fang left them even more stunned.
Perfection—how many middle-aged Beastmasters struggled to achieve such a skill level for their familiars?
And here was a student, not even an adult, who had managed to achieve it...
It's just too much to accept!!
Qiao Sang was among those who couldn't stay calm.
Ever since Fangy reached Mastery, he switched to practicing Flame Fang. It was only this morning, during her usual skill training, that she achieved perfect proficiency.
She had assumed that even if the power increased, it wouldn't be that extreme. However, this perfect proficiency Flame Fang managed to instantly kill Blazefang.
Familiars generally have resistance to attacks of their own attributes, with Ghost-type Companion Beasts being the exception.
Blazefang, a well-known Fire Familiar in the Yuhua Region, was actually killed by an Intermediate Skill of the same attribute...
Could a perfect proficiency Flame Fang really be this powerful? Qiao Sang was somewhat bewildered.
Currently, Qiao Sang had a misunderstanding about the increase in power from skill proficiency. She thought it was just a simple increase in power, unaware that the essence of the skill could change with proficiency.
The person most impacted was Wang Anqiang.
He had thought that once Blazefang returned to normal, he could put on a brilliant demonstration for his colleagues. Instead, he was completely outclassed.
"I lost", Wang Anqiang said hoarsely. "I'm too weak."
Qiao Sang was taken aback by this statement and began to think seriously. Was it not that the perfect proficiency Flame Fang was too strong, but rather that the sparring partner Blazefang was too weak?
Fortunately, Wang Anqiang was unaware of this thought, or he might have spit blood on the spot.
"Is Flame Listener a Psychic-type?" Wang Anqiang asked next.
Although he was momentarily stunned when he saw Flame Listener flying, it now made sense—the feeling was just like a Psionic Familiar floating in the air.
"Yes", Qiao Sang nodded.
As expected... Wang Anqiang was a bit dazed.
As the Beastmaster of Blazefang, who also evolved from Fangflare, his feelings were quite complex.
Seeing that Wang Anqiang was lost in thought, Qiao Sang reminded him, "Do you have another familiar? We should get started; time is money."
Wang Anqiang snapped back to reality and said, "I do, but it would be a waste of time. I suggest you find an Intermediate Trainer; none of the Junior sparring partners here can match you."
A group of people who had just walked over from the spectator stands: "..."
Come on, while that's true, no one says it so bluntly in front of so many Junior sparring partners...
The only person who was happy to hear this was Lin Yuanqi.
If no one could match the stingy Rich Second-Generation in front of them, what right did they have to mock him? This restored his dignity.
An Intermediate Trainer costs 3000 Union Coins per hour... Qiao Sang said helplessly, "Intermediate Trainers are too expensive; I don't have the money."
Everyone: "...!"
You, with a Flame Listener and a Treasure Seeker, are saying you don't have money?
Did Flame Listener's Blazefang reach perfect proficiency without using Heavenly-priced Resources? Even with exceptional talent, it would take several years! And your Flame Listener was just a Fangflare a little over a month ago...
Several people who thought about this froze, stunned.
So, in just over a month, Fangflare not only evolved into a Flame Listener but also achieved perfect proficiency in Flame Fang?!
"I have a suggestion", a man with shiny leather shoes and golden-rimmed glasses suddenly said. "You could come work as a sparring partner for us."
"Not only would you get paid, but since we'd all be colleagues, you could find Intermediate or even Advanced Trainers for guidance during your free time. I believe they wouldn't refuse. What do you think?"
