Chapter 410: Su Ping vs. Qin Xiaoxue!
Chapter 410: Su Ping vs. Qin Xiaoxue!
As these words appeared, Su Ping's eyebrows furrowed, and Miss Qin's eyebrows also furrowed.
It was obvious that both of them might have expected that they would face each other on the arena during the professional assessment, but it seemed that neither of them had anticipated that this day would come so soon.
Despite the fact that both of them actually knew that this was not really fast.
The last round of the six-to-three elimination was already a genuine semi-final knockout.
It could only be said that their luck was relatively average.
Unless Su Ping and Qin Xiaoxue could both have the opportunity to enter the top three, otherwise, by now, it was already a genuine limit.
However, it was clear that both of them were somewhat unprepared for such an outcome.
Especially Qin Xiaoxue, when she saw the last line, for a moment, she seemed somewhat dazed.
A year ago, when she faced Su Ping, she only spoke of the special nature of this professional assessment and sincerely wished Su Ping good luck.
However, at that time, she asked herself, she absolutely did not expect that the ordinary newly graduated dung-shoveling boy could make it this far.
What she thought at that time was that Su Ping, at most, would just make it to the final trial and come to the capital.
But now, the guy in front of her could actually compete with her to fight for the top three.
The atmosphere at this moment became somewhat subtle.
However, many spectators in the audience obviously didn't get this point and were eagerly awaiting the first competitor to take the stage!
Only the two relatively special people glanced at each other, and a nameless smile appeared in their eyes.
These two were none other than Dongmuxuan, who was still competing with other participants to enter the top twenty candidates in the morning, and a beautiful and generous woman.
Who else could it be if it wasn't Dong Muyun from the Jianghai region?
The brother and sister were sitting in the uppermost seats of the audience, and with Dongmuxuan's large sunglasses and mask, no one realized that the person beside them was the one who had competed in the arena earlier.
"Miss Qin actually met Su Ping?"
Dongmuxuan propped up his chin and spoke with great interest.
Then, this guy, who was a brother and sister born from the same mother to Dong Muyun, turned to look at his elder sister:
"Sis, who do you think will win?"
Dong Muyun put down her silver-framed sunglasses and shrugged: "How would I know?"
Then, Dong Muyun looked at her brother:
"You've been hiding for so long, and the result is just a top twenty finish. How did you manage that?"
Dongmuxuan also shrugged in exactly the same way:
"Sis, I'm also human. Those two are indeed too outrageous! The support from the family isn't much either.
The only thing I can rely on is the teacher's help in cultivating the quasi-transcendental skill combination, the Sky Net. Their skills are genuine transcendental skills! Can you blame me?"
Dong Muyun smiled and then said lightly:
"Go tell that old thing. If the old thing had spent as much effort and time on you as he did on that waste, and as the heir to the Mirror Saint lineage, it wouldn't make sense to recognize a Space Beastmaster at the Imperial Peak as a teacher."
Dongmuxuan smiled, and he obviously didn't confirm or deny what his sister said.
However, he thought for a moment and said:
"Sis, you did a good job with the previous matter. The family's direction can be changed, and your vision is excellent."
Dong Muyun's lips curled up again, but before she could speak, Dongmuxuan continued to ask:
"Speaking of which, if you and Miss Qin switched places, if you were the one on the arena and about to compete with Su Ping at this moment, what would you choose, sis?"
Facing her brother's extremely curious gaze, Dong Muyun thought for a moment and then replied with a slight sigh:
"If it were me, I'd just admit defeat on the arena. Why bother? This is the final trial, and after entering the top three, there's the national-level competition, the Dragon Pets, and the resource rewards for the second-day talent assessment!"
Dong Muyun smiled and shook her head: "There's no need. The outcome on the arena is just a temporary gain or loss. But the main reason is still because Su Ping is worth it."
This time, Dongmuxuan, who rarely shook his head, did so:
"So, sis, you'll never be Qin Xiaoxue. And even if you had the same opportunity, even if you didn't rush to advance to the Monarch level at a young age, you still not appear on the highest arena of the final trial, nor be among the top six in this round."
Dong Muyun glared at her smelly brother but didn't refute anything. She just smiled and said:
"That's true. Even Beastmasters should be brave and ambitious."
However, after a slight pause, Dong Muyun smiled and said:
"But in some aspects, there's no need to be too concerned. Still, as I said, temporary gains and losses aren't that important.
Dong Muxuan smiled. The siblings' concepts were indeed slightly different in this regard. As an older sister, she liked to approach things from a third-party perspective and didn't care much about the struggle between the moment and herself. Instead, she valued the slow and steady flow of time.
After getting to know Su Ping better, he also fully agreed with his sister's ideas.
The six-to-three competition proceeded smoothly.
It must be said that this kind of showdown was very eye-catching, and even more intense than the previous twelve-to-six competition.
Ye Zhou faced Mu Hanchan.
The former's beast taming ability was extremely mysterious, while the latter's strength was also extremely powerful. In the eyes of some people, both had the strength and potential to compete for the championship.
This time, even Ye Zhou finally showed some changes when facing Mu Hanchan.
The Ringed Tiger and Ice Whisper Cicada had defeated countless opponents, but this time, relying solely on these two, faced with the Absolute Zero's absolute defense, their strength was clearly insufficient.
For the first time, the Ice Whisper Cicada in Ye Zhou's hands displayed a skill that had never appeared before, and it was precisely this skill that completely tipped the scales of the original battle.
Time Freeze!
Time-based beasts were the most mysterious and rare, and even their skills were like this.
The public's understanding and knowledge of time-based beasts were indeed too little.
Time Freeze was a relatively simple skill.
This didn't seem like a particularly amazing ability, but it was truly terrifying and frightening, just like the spatial beast's teleportation.
This was the most basic use of these two attributes, but these attributes themselves represented that even just using them was enough to be frightening!
During the time freeze, whether it was the opponent's beast or the beast tamer themselves, they were like sitting ducks.
Although the duration of this freeze was only a fleeting moment, perhaps not even reaching a full second, it was enough.
Mu Hanchan was very dissatisfied.
Absolute Zero could freeze almost all living beings.
However, whether it was the Ringed Tiger or the Ice Whisper Cicada, they both seemed to have unique defensive abilities, or perhaps their bodies were unaffected by temperature.
At most, their actions would slow down slightly, and their energy consumption would increase, but the effect did not meet expectations.
This made her combat style consistently unfavorable, and after her main combat beast's large amount of energy was consumed without being able to respond to the time freeze.
Then, as the Ringed Tiger's time wheel locked onto her, with a thought, the beast tamer directly faced the possibility of death, and the result of the battle was revealed.
As expected, Ye Zhou became the first person to advance to the top three.
This consistently low-key person, whose combat style was not flashy, made everyone's hearts tremble by showing just a bit of his strength.
Even Su Ping was like this.
Time Freeze.
This ability was too frightening.
Although Ye Zhou's Ice Whisper Cicada couldn't achieve a time freeze of more than one second at the same level, if it was like this, how could he, as the beast tamer, directly attack himself?
Moreover, there was also the Time Sandglass!
Su Ping didn't know.
Or, could Qing and Qian Yi protect themselves from the time freeze in that moment?
He didn't know either.
However, it was clear that tonight, he had to watch Ye Zhou's battle video several times and study it thoroughly.
Compared to Ye Zhou, the second battle between Chen Zhan and Shen Tu Yan was relatively simple and crude.
This was the type of battle Su Ping liked.

These two were pure energy clashes, simple slaughter, but an ultimate enjoyment.
If only looking at energy, Qing and Qian Yi were not inferior to anyone.
Only Ye Zhou's disgusting play made Su Ping wary.
Compared to these two, it was like some network game dungeons.
One was a purely numerical dungeon that could be cleared once the level, equipment, and attributes were sufficient.
The other was a dungeon with nasty mechanics, requiring the satisfaction of various messy conditions, a thorough understanding of boss dungeon mechanics, and possibly even several trial-and-error attempts to become familiar with it before having a chance to clear it.
Chen Zhan and Shen Tu Yan were the former.
Compared to the complex time-based beasts, the wind domain and mechanical beasts' energy collision was a tactical energy clash and a straightforward battle.
And the final result was not too surprising.
Shen Fu had already achieved a remarkable feat by reaching this point.
During the final battle, Chen Zhan's main combat pet, Qinglong, used the 'Wind Domain,' a skill that did not belong to this stage of the Dragon Clan. After that, the outcome of the fight was no longer in doubt.
Domain skills are relatively unique control skills. They significantly boost one's own abilities while severely weakening the opponent.
Among the Blue Star Beast Masters, the most revered super-tier domain skill is the Necrotic Realm, a super-tier domain skill that Charles developed two years before Zhou Tian's Five Elements.
Although the Wind Domain is not as impressive as the Necrotic Realm, it is still a domain skill. Even if Shen Fu was reluctant, he used his best skills, but the wind still tore open the domain and blew it away.
The excitement of these two beast-mastering battles is self-evident.
However, Su Ping found it somewhat bland.
Even until Chen Zhan and the reluctant Shen Fu left the ring, it was still the same.
In fact, Su Ping didn't care much about the final trial rankings.
The so-called reward of the top three spiritual fire seeds was of no use to him.
The second day's assignment was precious to others, as it was a medium for beast masters to improve and showcase their abilities.
However, Su Ping's Ten Thousand Spirits Record was the least lacking in beast master talents.
As for the other rewards, dragon pets, and other things, as long as they entered the top five, they would be available.
His feelings for Qin Xiaoxue were relatively complex.
However, there was no doubt about the other party.
Qin Xiaoxue was an extremely competitive person. Thinking of this, Su Ping glanced at Qin Xiaoxue, who also looked back at him. Then, without waiting for both of them to take the stage, Qin Xiaoxue directly spoke up:
"No surrender! No mercy! Neither of us is allowed to give up! If you dare to surrender directly, I won't talk to you for a month, not even a week!"
Su Ping was startled, and then he couldn't help but laugh.
These seemingly coquettish words, more threatening than anything, left Su Ping feeling helpless.
It seemed that Miss Qin wasn't foolish after all.
Soon after, Qin Xiaoxue continued, "Don't forget, you once told me that you would let me see your strength! Is there a better stage than this?"
After speaking, Qin Xiaoxue didn't waste any more words. Without waiting for the host to speak, she disappeared from the other side of the enormous ring after it had completed its self-cleaning and repair.
Su Ping's eyes gradually became firm as he stepped onto the ring and stood in the center of the stage, attracting everyone's attention.
The girl in the distance, still in her memory, was different from any previous time.
Now, Qin Xiaoxue stood as his opponent, far away from him.
Her bright eyes held excitement and battle intent that ordinary peers of the same age lacked.
Indeed, for Miss Qin, she seemed not to need a surrender-earned top three.
Thinking of this, Su Ping pursed his lips and revealed a smile.
Let's see, besides the tree-crowned wolf king he personally cultivated and the other two pets, what kind of strength did they truly possess!
At the same time, the referee's voice once again slowly echoed above the ring:
"Random Terrain: Thorny Forest! Please prepare, both contestants. After a 10-second countdown, the match will officially begin. During the match, the use of potions and mechanical weapons is prohibited. 10, 9, 8..."
The familiar countdown sound started again.
The enormous ring once again slowly transformed.
The mechanical metal ring disappeared.
In its place was a forest filled with thorns and trees.
Obviously, whether it was Qinglong or Qin Xiaoxue's three pets, the forest was the main battlefield for both sides.
As for Qian Yi, the terrain didn't matter much.
Since it's like this, let's begin!
Su Ping's eyes flashed with a ray of light, and at the same time as the countdown ended,
Two rays of summoning light appeared once again.
Just right, let's see the strength of the strongest evolutionary form of the forest wolf, the tree-crowned wolf king, and the mutated evolutionary form of the forest wolf, the verdant demon wolf spirit.
"Woof!"
For a moment, two wolf howls simultaneously echoed on the thorny forest of the enormous ring!
