Chapter 414: Qin Xiaoxue's Full Strength! The Final Battle!
Chapter 414: Qin Xiaoxue's Full Strength! The Final Battle!
The morning sun shines upon the vast arena, the sky a pristine blue, and a fresh scent permeates the air.
It's a clear and bright summer morning, seemingly setting the stage for the grand finale of the young Beast Masters' Professional Assessment.
Spectators from all directions flock to this massive Beast Battle Arena.
The stands are packed, and the atmosphere is exceptionally enthusiastic as everyone eagerly awaits the arrival of this climactic showdown.
On the electronic screen behind, promotional videos play, eventually freezing on the final images of the three Beast Masters and their corresponding pets in costume.
This is the final day of the Youth Professional Beast Master Assessment, which has lasted for half a month. After intense competitions, the top three from the entire Dragon Nation are finally determined.
The arena remains immaculate.
The Mechanical Association has maintained the arena with cutting-edge technology.
The protective barriers around the arena glow with energy, and the audience is enthusiastic, anticipating the final showdown.
Hostess Liu Xu stands in the center of the arena, wearing a pure white dress, exuding elegance and grace.
The microphone in her hand glitters under the lights, and her face is filled with a warm smile, waiting for the audience to settle down.
"Ladies and gentlemen, good morning! Welcome to the grand finale of the Youth Professional Beast Battle Tournament!" Liu Xu's voice echoes through the arena via the loudspeakers, and the audience responds with thunderous applause and cheers.
"Today, we will witness several unprecedented showdowns! After intense competitions, three young top-tier Beast Masters have emerged, and they will engage in three rounds to determine the ultimate champion!"
Liu Xu pauses, and the atmosphere reaches its climax.
"Before the matches begin, let me introduce today's competition format." Liu Xu raises her hand, asking for silence, and continues, "First, as before, before the final, there were twelve members who advanced. So, among the remaining six members outside the top six, two will be eliminated to determine the top ten!
Additionally, among the top six, one will also be eliminated to confirm the top five! The top five will be decided through a three-round rotation between Qin Xiaoxue, Mu Hanchan, and Shen Fu!
After confirming the top ten and top five, the highly anticipated three-round final will commence! Similarly, to ensure the quality of the competition, the three final rounds will also be conducted through a rotation, ensuring the accuracy of the rankings!"
Liu Xu's voice is crisp, and she continues with a list of acknowledgments and advertisements.
Su Ping sits below, yawning. He didn't get much rest last night.
To be precise, his current cultivation level doesn't require much sleep.
However, under the continuous pressure of back-to-back battles, he feels a bit weary.
The new prompt from the Ten Thousand Spirits Record gives Su Ping a boost.
Though the experience cost is indeed a bit excessive.
A full thousand experience points from the record, if converted back to general experience, would still require a whopping two thousand points.
Of course, Su Ping wouldn't be foolish enough to do that.
Even with the experience from the Forest Garden, which is barely sufficient, he doesn't rush to analyze it.
After all, there's still the competition to consider.
With breeding, he can afford to wait until he's back home.
The reason for his sleeplessness simple: that he just couldn't sleep.
So, after a brief meditation, Su Ping got the idea to create a new prototype with Fifi.
Calling it a toy isn't entirely accurate.
It's more of a supplement to the Ten Thousand Spirits Heart.
After consuming numerous mechanical cores, Fifi's spirit has significantly improved.
Though the Elite Ten Tier isn't particularly high, the 'online traffic resources' have undoubtedly increased.
The update speed of the Dream Heart can't be exceptionally fast, and the Dream Heart isn't solely focused on the game.
So, when Su Ping and his pet were bored and couldn't sleep, they decided to create a brand new website under the name of Wanling's Heart and Su Ping.
Of course, creating a website isn't a big deal. Even if Fei Fei wasn't involved, any programmer could easily do it.
However, with the establishment of Dream Heart, Fei Fei also became interested in many aspects of entertainment and wanted to try some new ideas.
Su Ping didn't pay much attention to the ideas for this 'casual' pet.
Fei Fei himself wasn't that enthusiastic about combat.
As of now, Xiao Qing and Qian Yi's combat strength was already sufficient.
Thinking of this, Su Ping rubbed his temples.
He looked towards the arena.
The top six contestants had already taken their positions:
Qu Zhen, Qin Feng, Feng Rong, Xie Qiong, Pan Xiaoyu, and An Hong.
These were the six members of the top twelve who had been eliminated earlier.
Among these six contestants, according to Su Ping's speculation, the two most likely to be eliminated were An Hong and Feng Rong.
An Hong, as the fourth-ranked student from Shanhe College, was inherently weaker in terms of strength.
He was lucky to have made it to the top twelve.
However, there wasn't much difference between being in the top twelve and not making it to the top ten.
As for Feng Rong, being the last of the eight Beast Mastery colleges, Yingling College, he faced more constraints.
Moreover, his raw strength was indeed inferior to the others.
There was no need to say more about Xie Qiong, who possessed the super-tier Bone Dragon skill, and Pan Xiaoyu, who was just one step away from Mu Hanchan.
Qu Zhen and Qin Feng, the combat strength of their pets, had already been confirmed.
Although these two were relatively excellent, they didn't have that super-tier trump card, so it was reasonable for them to be eliminated.
In fact, this wasn't unexpected.
In the first round, Qu Zhen, Feng Rong, and An Hong were defeated by their opponents. Qu Zhen faced Qin Feng and narrowly lost, but in subsequent battles, he had a clear advantage over these two.
This Beast Master from Tianfu College breathed a sigh of relief, barely making it into the top ten.
An Hong and Feng Rong were reluctant, but there was nothing they could do about their inferior strength.
The top ten represented that after becoming a Monarch, they would directly have a pet with Imperial-tier potential.
This huge gap made the two eliminated contestants extremely dejected.
However, there was nothing they could do about it.
No one felt sorry for them, because soon after, except for the final match, the battle for the top five began in the afternoon, right after the final match.
Compared to the dense schedule in the morning, the battle for the top five only had three Beast Master battles.
Mu Hanchan, Qin Xiaoxue, and Shen Fu.
It was a round-robin format.
Undoubtedly, just entering the next stage of rankings, the intensity of the battles doubled.
Qin Xiaoxue vs. Shen Fu.
Shen Fu vs. Mu Hanchan.
Mu Hanchan vs. Qin Xiaoxue.
In the first battle, Qin Xiaoxue made her appearance.
Su Ping also became more alert and watched closely.
Reaching the top five, with a Dragon pet, even if Shen Fu was the young master of the Shanhe Group and didn't lack money,
But Dragons weren't something that could be bought with money.
This young master Shen Fu also exerted all his strength.
Those three mechanical pets, which he played with great skill, were truly firing on all cylinders.
However, the final result was cruel.
The development of mechanical pets in Dragon Country wasn't rapid.
Only some top-tier mechanical blueprints were obtained by Dragon Country before through Meng Huangliang.
Especially some large-scale mechanical warships that traveled through the starry sky.
This work was organized and uploaded by Liujiu Book Bar~~
However, ordinary combat mechanical pets for civilian use still fell short.
Even the mechanical pets of the Shanhe Group, which were quite good, especially the Judgment Angel,
Had two forms and combat styles.
But there was no way around their inferior strength.
If it were before yesterday, Shen Fu still had a chance to win,
But after yesterday, he naturally awakened the Thorn Garden, and even if he wasn't deliberately suppressing it, he would directly advance to the Monarch-tier Wood, the Flower Fairy, and the Life Ancient Tree.
The first defeat seemed to leave Shen Fu unable to adjust.
In the second match, facing Mu Hanchan, the outcome was still the same.
That's right, by the end of the second match of the top five battles, the top five contestants had already been decided.
Shen Fu's face was pale and reluctant.
At this moment, he experienced the feelings of those who had been eliminated before.
Just a little more, and it would be the difference between an ordinary Imperial-tier pet and a Dragon pet.
The ordinary Imperial-tier youngling pet, not even the Mountain River Group could obtain one.
As the third-generation heir of the Mountain River Group, this was nothing special, but it was different when it came to dragons.
However, no matter how much was said, it was useless. Having lost consecutively to two people, the final result was almost certain.
Nevertheless, the last match still had to be fought.
Because, aside from the top five, there was also a difference between fourth and fifth place.
This difference wasn't necessary in the top ten or even the top twenty.
But within the top five, it was extremely crucial. The five dragon pets were chosen based on their rankings.
If a desired dragon pet was selected by someone else, it would be a real pity.
And in this final battle for the top five, the last two remaining female contestants, both of whom were stunning beauties, instantly became the talk of the town.
A Wood-type versus Ice-type showdown!
The randomly generated map was the Snowy Plateau.
Clearly, this was a map that heavily favored Mu Hanchan.
In the previous battles, aside from facing Ye Zou, where she was helpless, Mu Hanchan's terrifying dominance was enough to make people believe in her abilities.
This time, with the additional advantage of the terrain, even before the match, there were those who were certain that Mu Hanchan had secured the fourth place.
However, the final result was beyond the expectations of most people, except for Su Ping.
Indeed, Qin Xiaoxue could be said to have secured her fourth place with a thrilling victory.
Because that Flower Fairy finally made her move.
Life Tide!
This high-level skill, which could be seen under the master-level permissions within the Breeder's Association, was naturally known to Su Ping.
And in the records of the Breeder's Association, this Life Tide skill could be described in one sentence.
When this skill is activated, within its range, as long as one doesn't die, they won't die.
This statement seems grammatically incorrect and somewhat incomprehensible.
But when Qin Xiaoxue had the Flower Fairy activate it, it truly demonstrated the value of Life Tide as one of the strongest combat-type state skills of the Life and Wood types.
Is Absolute Zero terrifying?
Of course, it's terrifying. It's a power so formidable that even energy freezes.
Ice Spirit King, Frostwing Golden Eagle, Snowflake Sacred Sword.
These three Ice-type pets, under Absolute Zero, unleashed an unimaginable offensive power.
However, with Life Tide activated.
Completely restored to full health, their injuries healed, and the Wood Body and Life Ancient Tree freed from their frozen state, they no longer had to worry about energy and could freely unleash the Jungle Carnival, Thorny Garden, and the Life Ancient Tree with its Death Wave.
They directly defeated Mu Hanchan's three pets in one fell swoop.
This wasn't a case of capturing the king to capture the bandits, but rather a head-on battle, enduring Absolute Zero with thrilling ease.
The appearance of this scene made Qin Xiaoxue's momentum reach its peak at this moment.
At the same time, different voices began to echo:
"Why didn't Qin Xiaoxue let the Flower Fairy use Life Tide yesterday?"
"Isn't this just letting Su Ping directly enter the top three? What's the relationship between these two?"
"Cheating! This is cheating! In my opinion, even if Qin Xiaoxue faced Chen Zhan's Wind Dragon, she might not have lost."
"+1, Shen Fu and Chen Zhan fought for so long, and although Qin Xiaoxue also disabled some of Shen Fu's abilities, she still defeated him quite easily. Qin Xiaoxue definitely has the strength to be in the top three."
"Pfft! I object!"
"What are you objecting to? That couple is talented and beautiful, it's not your turn, you monster, to object."
"It's not that Qin Xiaoxue couldn't break through Su Shen's Green Demon Wolf with Life Tide; there was still one minute left, and that Origami Man could have made his move then."
"Exactly, they're just jealous of my husband. Who knows what Qin Xiaoxue was thinking? Maybe she wanted to attract her husband's attention."
"..."
It was clear that this final battle for the top five sparked much discussion.
Especially after yesterday's Wolf King showdown, the Flower Fairy's display of strength and the dazzling Life Tide, the chatter only intensified.
Fortunately, such arguments and quarrels were common occurrences.
And even better, after a short one-hour break, as the setting sun slowly tilted towards the west.
This final showdown for the top three was finally about to decide the rankings.
And the first to take the stage was Su Ping, who had briefly been at the center of the discussion.
The first match to determine the top three rankings:
Su Ping vs. Chen Zhan!
