Chapter 33: Cooperative Strike Technique? Is the Fight Over?
Chapter 33: Cooperative Strike Technique? Is the Fight Over?
Zhou Shuchen was dumbfounded. He had only intended to mock Su Ping with a sarcastic remark.
After all, how could a contract companion beast of this level be summoned? If Su Ping's contract companion beast had reached this level, why would he need to use that rental beast to fight him?
This clearly didn't make sense!
It didn't seem scientifically plausible either.
However, as Su Ping nodded in agreement and the summoning light disappeared, the proud Timberwolf that appeared beside him was the same size as the previous one, without a shred of difference!
Stranger still, the fur of this Timberwolf was noticeably more vibrant than that of the others.
What on earth was this creature?
Was it really a Timberwolf?
Among all the people present, Su Ping was the most eye-catching, and as he finally summoned his companion beast, he immediately drew the attention of the other students.
The onlookers were one thing, but when Zhang Guowei and the young man from Flame King Corporation caught sight of Xiao Qing for the first time, the peculiar color of her fur caused them to exclaim in surprise:
"A mutant companion beast!"
It was clear that their exclamations had finally made the others understand what this strangely colored Timberwolf was.
"A mutant companion beast? I've heard they're quite rare and highly valuable."
"Not necessarily. It depends on the nature of the mutation and whether it's beneficial. But generally speaking, they're definitely more valuable than ordinary companion beasts."
"A mutant Timberwolf might not be worth less than an Overlord-grade companion beast, right?"
The exclamations around him were secondary.
What truly left Zhou Shuchen speechless at this moment was the size of this Timberwolf.
The body of this mutant Timberwolf was the same size as the previous one, which meant that...
Before he could think further, the twin Beastmasters were already urging him:
"Can you move aside?"
Everyone finally reacted and cleared a path, stepping aside to make way for the nearby training arena.
The twin brothers were around the same age as them, but their cultivation realms and beastmaster skills were more advanced, indicating they were students from a key foundation academy in Linzhou.
The fact that they required sparring partners of the Fifth to Seventh Ranks further proved this point.
Moreover, in a sense, the two brothers, being Beastmasters controlling two companion beasts, had a significant advantage over the sparring companion beasts that lacked Beastmaster support.
However, Su Ping didn't mind and even watched the arena with keen interest.
Little Dot and Xiao Qing, aside from Old Sandy, were the only two Timberwolves that had undergone the Heartwood Cultivation, and they had been used as sparring partners to compete against each other.
But this time, they were going to collaborate in a joint attack, which piqued Su Ping's interest.
However, what Su Ping didn't expect was that after the twin brothers entered the arena and summoned their companion beasts, they glanced at each other, and to his surprise, they were also a pair of Timberwolves! And their sizes were no different from his Timberwolf.
"Attack!"
The brothers didn't hesitate, and the two Timberwolves swiftly charged towards Xiao Qing and Little Dot.
Their speed was impressive, but what truly captivated Su Ping was the coordination between the two Timberwolves.
The Timberwolves, by nature, were the epitome of teamwork.
Under the guidance of Beastmasters, individual strength was significantly enhanced, so after becoming companion beasts, this cooperative combat style gradually faded.
However, these twin brothers were different.
The two Timberwolves, one in front and one behind, worked together seamlessly, almost perfectly coordinated.
Especially when compared to the teamwork between Little Dot and Xiao Qing, which was not just a little inferior,
In the first instance, Xiao Qing, unable to quickly join the fight, found herself at a disadvantage!
Little Dot's body grew larger, and the accelerated growth effect of the Sunlight Absorption doubled his strength and speed, immediately overpowering the Timberwolf he was entangled with.
However, the other Timberwolf had already pushed its way forward.
This Combined Combat Technique was not a skill, but in many situations, it was far more practical than the skills the companion beasts were proficient in.
How interesting! Truly fascinating.
Su Ping felt as if he had been drawn in by some rare treasure.
In that instant, his mind seemed to flash with a bolt of lightning.
However, this was just an initial idea, and it required continuous training to truly perfect it.
But Su Ping's heart was filled with indescribable joy, like a dry sponge, watching the seemingly crude yet incredibly coordinated Combined Combat Technique in the arena.
Little Dot, along with the rented wolves, had been instructed by Su Ping to prolong the battle as much as possible. After all, the customers had paid, and it would ease his conscience to train with them for a while longer.
Unfortunately, compared to Little Dot, Xiao Qing didn't have such a good temper.
Although she didn't like Little Dot, they were still opponents. Now, seeing her opponent being bullied, and those cunning wolves avoiding her and prioritizing Little Dot, Xiao Qing became extremely indignant!
Could it be that, in their eyes, she appeared less threatening than that guy?
Xiao Qing exploded with rage!
"Roar..."
The terrifying empowerment of the Toxic Wood Heart made the Toxic Vine Strangulation, already distinct from the ordinary Wolf Vine Strangulation, even more formidable. Purple vines burst forth from the ground, as if materializing out of thin air.
They resembled purple venomous snakes, coiling around their targets.
Their speed was astonishing, following their targets.
Their speed was astonishing, surpassing even the clearly enhanced running speed of the two wolves!
"Roar..."
An excited roar echoed as one of the twin wolves had its paw directly entangled by the vines.
If these were ordinary vines, perhaps the wolf could have freed itself using its strength and skills.
Unfortunately, these were the Toxic Vines empowered by the Toxic Wood Heart.
Not only did they entangle their target, but they also carried a paralyzing poison!
As expected, after being entangled, the wolf could barely move its legs within three seconds. It tried to take a step but stiffened in place. It stretched its leg and then, to everyone's surprise, fell with a thud onto the combat arena.
With two against one, the remaining wolf didn't last more than ten seconds.
After Xiao Qing unleashed her Toxic Vine Strangulation, the situation was swiftly reversed.
From the earlier scenario where Little Dot was being overwhelmed, it turned into a complete victory. From start to finish, there was no chance for the other side to take out even one of their beasts first.
The medical staff quickly rushed onto the arena, picked up the two wolves, and administered two doses of antidote before reassuring the worried twin Beastmasters:
"It's just a paralyzing poison. They'll be fine after some rest. There's no other danger, so don't worry."
The twin Beastmasters finally breathed a sigh of relief.
However, the rest of the onlookers who had witnessed this unique Beastmaster battle from start to finish now had complex expressions on their faces.
A mutated wolf, and its mutated attribute was the rare Toxic attribute!
No wonder Su Ping wasn't interested in that Scythe Giant Centipede.
Just then, the staff member responsible for treatment also brought over the now-awakened Crimson Fang Tiger.
He handed it over to Zhou Shuchen, who was currently looking dazed.
Zhou, the head of the class, held the Crimson Cloud, the Crimson Fang Tiger, which had been unconscious before but was now fully recovered and eager to fight again to avenge its master's honor.
Zhou Shuchen glanced at the wolf, which was no smaller in size than the previous one and could even control the terrifying toxic vines.
And at this moment, someone asked:
"Zhou, are you and Su Ping going to continue the battle?"
Instantly, everyone's gaze shifted to him.
Yeah, are they going to continue?
