Chapter 409: Of Course We Can Continue! (Second Update)
On the field.
In a match, injuries are inevitable. If one fears getting hurt, they shouldn't even step into the arena. Zhang Xueming couldn't help but stand frozen, feeling the commotion around her.
No matter how much she tried to be strong, her body's natural reaction betrayed her.
After all, Zhang Xueming was still a child. Though she was more composed than her peers, she was still young and had never faced such a situation before.
On one hand, she felt she had done nothing wrong, but on the other, she wondered if she had been too harsh on their endangered familiar on their home turf. Should she have let them make a few moves first?
These conflicting thoughts pulled at her, preventing her from fully savoring her victory.
On the other side, Lulu lay motionless, covered in injuries.
A Mechanical Pet wearing a referee badge floated over to Lulu.
Though Qiao Sang knew Lulu would eventually lose, seeing her lying still made his heart sink.
Perhaps I shouldn't have just focused on having Lulu hide. Maybe she wanted to attack, to face a strong opponent. She didn't even land a single hit before losing. Will this leave any psychological scars? Even if I knew Lulu would lose, I should have let her fight to the best of her ability, so she wouldn't have any regrets... Qiao Sang steadied his emotions, took a deep breath, and shouted:
"Lulu! Can you continue?"
Lulu felt so exhausted, wanting to move but unable to.
Did she lose...
Lulu remembered the second time Fangy saved her.
She didn't understand why, even though she had never been kind to Fangy, he still saved her.
Why, despite her hard training, she could never catch up to Fangy, who seemed to spend all his time sleeping.
She also thought of her Beastmaster.
She was a very kind human, so kind that even when she was heartbroken and didn't want to see Fangy, Lulu never considered forcefully breaking their bond.
This is a match. If she loses because of my insistence on continuing, she will be upset.
She didn't want to lose...
At that moment,
"Lulu! Can you continue?"
Her Beastmaster's voice seemed to come from far away, pulling Lulu's fuzzy consciousness back.
Of course she could continue!
The Mechanical Pet with the referee badge checked Lulu's condition, placed its paw on the whistle, and slowly lifted it.
It didn't notice that one of Lulu's paws had moved slightly.
Just as the Mechanical Pet was about to blow the whistle, a blinding blue light suddenly illuminated Lulu's body.
The Mechanical Pet froze in shock.
"Lulu!"
When the blue light dissipated, a completely unharmed and fully energized Glacialia appeared before everyone's eyes.
"!!!" The Mechanical Pet, stunned, silently retreated.
Lulu is magnificent! Qiao Sang's heart raced, feeling both excitement and emotion.
No one knew a familiar's condition better than their bonded Beastmaster.
Qiao Sang hadn't expected Lulu to use Healing Light even in such a dazed state.
Wanting Lulu to have no regrets was one thing, but seeing her perseverance was another.
The entire arena fell silent, and all the angry spectators suddenly froze, staring at the pale blue figure on the field.
Then, thunderous cheers erupted throughout the battle arena.
"Ah! Glacialia! Glacialia!"
"I'm about to cry! Glacialia was hit so hard but didn't give up!"
"Damn! Damn! How could I forget that Glacialia is a divine healer?!"
"Feifei!"
"Healing Light! It's Healing Light! It's the legendary light of miracles!"
"When I heard Qiao Sang shout, she got up! Oh my god! I'm so moved!"
After the initial excitement, many people began to worry:
"Should we continue fighting? I don't want to see that scene again. You have no idea, I almost had a heart attack!"
"I don't want Glacialia to keep fighting either, but when Qiao Sang shouts, Glacialia seems to hear a summon, and that bond is really hard not to be moved by!"
"Feeling moved is one thing, but we also need to know our limits. If we keep fighting, we'll just get beaten up again, right?"
"It was hard enough to recover. Why keep getting hit? If it were me, I'd just concede."
"But look, Glacialia seems to have a lot of fighting spirit."
On the field.
"Lulu!"
Lulu was no longer aloof. Instead, she stared intently at Ice Sea Lion, her expression serious and eager.
"Ice Sea."
Ice Sea Lion sensed the change in her opponent, blowing the fur from its mouth to one side and adopting a more serious attitude.
Is this not a Divine Skill?! How could such severe injuries heal so quickly?!
All previous thoughts vanished, and Zhang Xueming suddenly realized he had to use his ultimate move to take Glacialia down in one go!
Otherwise, with Glacialia's Healing Light, if Ice Sea Lion kept this up, the next match against Blazing Star Hound would be even harder.
"Ice Spikes!"
As Zhang Xueming spoke, Ice Sea Lion condensed icy cold air around itself. Dozens of Ice Spikes, each about a centimeter thick and ten to twenty centimeters long, appeared out of nowhere and shot toward Lulu.
Lulu dodged continuously, weaving through the Ice Spikes.
After the first wave of Ice Spikes, another wave appeared, replenishing the attack in a steady stream.
The Ice Spikes that missed their target stuck into the ground, not disappearing.
Lulu's dodging speed increased, and with absolute focus, she seemed to see the trajectory of each Ice Spike as it fell.
But just as she was about to move to the left to dodge, she suddenly realized that the area ahead was full of Ice Spikes.
From a bird's-eye view, Ice Spikes covered a large area of the field.
Strangely, within a three-meter radius around Lulu, not a single Ice Spike had landed.
"Mountain Crush!"
Zhang Xueming called out.
"Ice Sea!"
Ice Sea Lion let out a cry, planting its four paws firmly on the ground. With astonishing explosive power, it leaped twenty meters into the air.
On the surface, it was using Ice Spikes to attack, but in reality, it was to pin Lulu down. The space left in the middle was just about the size of Ice Sea Lion, ensuring that when it used Mountain Crush, Lulu would have nowhere to hide. Mountain Crush, one of Ice Sea Lion's two Advanced Skills, allowed it to jump to a high position and press down on its opponent with its body. For opponents with a significant size difference, this move was almost fatal.
But it didn't matter. Now that Lulu's Water Spray could change direction multiple times, as long as her reaction speed was fast enough, she should be able to dodge it. Qiao Sang observed the field, analyzed the situation, and was about to give an order when she saw Lulu looking up, eager to attack.
Qiao Sang was taken aback.
"Lulu!"
At the same time, Lulu, as if sensing her Beastmaster's thoughts, turned her head and called out seriously.
That's right. Why did my first thought always be to make her dodge? Lulu clearly wants to attack.
What Skills can harm Ice Sea Lion?
Lulu's strongest attack Skill right now is probably Water Spray... No! There's one more to try... Qiao Sang looked up at Ice Sea Lion, now a black dot in the sky due to its high jump. She estimated the distance, steeled her resolve, and called out:
"Frostflower Seal!"
