---
These are the attributes of the ox that Li Wu and his team encountered.
The level of terror it exudes is beyond comparison. Its combat power is on par with the griffin of Team 002, if not even more terrifying.
While the ox might not win in a direct fight, if the Little Skeleton faced it, the defensive formation of minions would likely be breached in the first round by this frenzied ox.
The fact that a regular team member's strength can rival that of a top team's captain gives a glimpse into how formidable Team 044 is.
Honestly, Li Wu has little confidence in defeating Team 044.
But thinking about the rewards of defeating Team 044, Li Wu's determination surges. He shouts at Piggie, who is on the stage, to motivate him.
"Piggie, was yesterday's stew delicious? If you win this match, you can drink it every day. But if you lose, you'll have to endure being ridden by the Little Skeleton every day."
A classic carrot and stick approach!
It's an old tactic, but it works wonders on this pig.
Initially unmotivated and even a bit timid, Piggie becomes energized upon hearing this.
Piggie nods vigorously, indicating understanding.
Piggie gets it, and he will give it his all!
With determination, Piggie stares at the ox, which is several times larger than him, trying to convey his readiness through his eyes.
The ox, on the other hand, expresses that Piggie's eyes are too small to notice.
"Prepare! Begin the match!"
As the referee signals, the battle between the pig and the ox commences.
The ox snorts, charging forward with its powerful hind legs.
Piggie, without hesitation, activates its Gigantification and charges as well.
A loud "Boom" echoes as the pig and the ox collide, and the pig is sent flying several meters by the ox's charge.
Clearly, in a pure test of strength, the pig falls short compared to the ox.
However, the pig has other advantages. Realizing its strength disadvantage, it quickly activates Gravity, focusing it on the ox.
A tenfold gravity suddenly bears down on the ox, weighing it down.
Seizing the opportunity, Piggie launches an Earth Spike.
A thick earth spike erupts from the ground, aiming directly at the ox's lower body.
Piggie learned this move from the previous wolf encounter.
Under the increased gravity, the ox fails to dodge and takes the full impact.
Although the ox's defense is formidable, the spike hits a sensitive spot, causing significant pain, if not severe damage.
This ox is male.
While it doesn't break its defense, the pain is very real.
Piggie's eyes light up, realizing the effectiveness of this attack.
Such an attack is truly vicious.
The ox, already irritable, becomes enraged by this relentless assault.
It lets out a furious bellow, a Mad Bull's Roar, disrupting Piggie's casting.
The angry ox seizes the moment, activating Bull's Strength and charging at the pig, knocking it over. It then raises its hooves to stomp on Piggie's belly.
Fortunately, the ox's roar is short-lived, allowing Piggie to break free from the control and cancel its Gigantification, narrowly escaping the stomp.
Piggie, undeterred, follows up with another Earth Spike.
The ox, now in a frenzy, takes the hit to its vital area and loses all restraint, entering the Mad Bull State. Its strength skyrockets to boss-level.
Simultaneously, the ox launches a relentless pursuit of the pig.
Initially, Piggie attempts to dodge the onslaught with its small size and agility, but soon realizes it's futile.
Despite its large size, the ox is also swift.
The pig struggles to create distance, and every stomp from the ox creates a crater, with flying debris that is quite damaging.
Without Gigantification, Piggie's defense is inadequate, and it cannot withstand the onslaught of debris. Thus, it is forced to activate Gigantification again.
The moment it tried to enlarge, it was immediately knocked flying by the bull.
Even with the enlargement, Piggie still felt somewhat inadequate.
Seeing the situation, Lu Wu quickly shouted from below.
"Piggie, upgrade! If you don't upgrade, you won't be able to beat them."
Lu Wu's words made the audience almost burst out laughing.
What kind of command is this? At this critical moment, can't you give a better command? What's the point of giving such a command? To make the opponent laugh? Can your summoned beast really upgrade just by voice command? Do you think it will upgrade just because you say so?
Well, as it turned out, some summoned beasts could indeed be upgraded by voice command, like Piggie.
At Lu Wu's shout, the pig immediately upgraded.
This was quite normal, as the pig was already good at cheating. Besides, it had recently drunk two pots of Skeleton Soup.
Although only one pot was genuine, and the effects of both pots had been absorbed to a large extent, the two pots still provided the pig with a significant amount of energy, allowing it to upgrade at will.
It directly reached Elite Tier 3.
With the upgrade, the pig's strength increased by a level. Piggie felt incredibly powerful, even daring to face the bull head-on.
Lifting its hooves, it unleashed an advanced skill, Cuteness Stomp, directly at the bull.
This was a group attack and control skill. When the skill burst, all enemies within a 90-degree arc in front of the pig would enter a brief dazed state.
Theoretically, the bull should have been stunned in place for about a second.
But that was theory. For this theory to hold, the opponent's weight had to be less than the pig's, and their strength could not exceed the pig's by much.
The bull did not meet either of these conditions.
So, this well-qualified bull was not pinned in place. It just wavered for a moment before charging forward and colliding directly with the pig.
Fortunately, the pig was heavy and quick-witted, activating gravity at the first moment. Otherwise, this blow would have sent the pig flying.
The collision also woke Piggie up, making it realize that it still couldn't face the bull head-on.
What should it do? It looked back at Lu Wu with a pitiful expression.
Piggie's expression was easy to understand.
What should it do if it can't upgrade and can't beat the bull? Online, waiting, very urgent!
Lu Wu hesitated for a moment, bit his lip, and then made a decision.
"Come on, open your mouth!"
Lu Wu had initially not planned to let Dudu eat the fruit.
"I didn't want you to eat this because it was delivered a bit late, and I was afraid the bonding skill would take too long to activate, which might delay the pig's Competition.
But Given the current Situation, it's Worth aShot."
DecIDING to let Dudu eat, Lu Wu couldn't Help but feel a Bit excited.
After all, this Fruit would Not Only potentially Strengthen thePig, But Also Make His Wife More beautiful.
SoHe Was Particularly Attentive.
"Come On,OpenyourMouth!"

'Come on, open your mouth!' Lu Wu said, handing the fruit to Dudu. Dudu's face turned red, and she became a bit flustered. She couldn't open her mouth, so Lu Wu had to let her eat it herself. After swallowing the fruit, Dudu's body emitted a faint glow. This time, she didn't fall into a coma and even demonstrated the shrinking skill right in front of Lu Wu. In less than a minute, Dudu went from 160 pounds to 99 pounds, her weight reduced by 61 pounds, and her beauty returned to its peak..."
