Chapter 438: The Regional Tournament Comes to an End
Chapter 438: The Regional Tournament Comes to an End
As Icechill appeared on the field, the entire audience erupted into thunderous cheers.
What could be more exciting than seeing Icechill in the final match?
Nothing!
Absolutely nothing!
"Icechill! Icechill!"
"Qiao Sang! Qiao Sang! I love you so much!"
"Ah! Qiao Sang really made me cry! According to her usual habits, she would have definitely sent out the Treasure Hunter Demon for this match! But she sent Icechill for us!"
"Uh, don't be too dramatic. Sending Icechill is better, isn't it? It ensures a win."
"You're from another region, you don't understand a thing!"
"..."
The uncle in the back row, who had been pressed by Ji Hui Tatta, had tears in his eyes.
This injury was worth it!
He would definitely make it to the "Top Lucky Moments for Audience" list of the year!
...
Ash Firefox, an Intermediate Fire Beast, could shoot hot steam from its ears to intimidate opponents, a trait that Qiao Sang noted as she observed the familiar standing before her. The familiar's body was mostly gray, with only the inside of its ears and its eyes a fiery red.
"Icechill."
Lulu looked at the tiny opponent with a cold expression.
Yes, tiny.
Ash Firefox was less than a meter tall, only slightly larger than the Treasure Seeker in Lulu's eyes.
"Gray Gray!"
Ash Firefox braced itself, ready to attack at any moment.
Its expression was a mix of fear and eagerness.
At that moment, the mechanical voice signaling the start of the match rang out.
"Flame Jet!" Shao Liben shouted immediately.
Hearing its Beastmaster's command, Ash Firefox's fearful expression vanished, its eyes becoming determined. It opened its mouth, and a high-temperature flame shot out, aiming directly at Lulu.
The attack was fast, but only by Intermediate Pet Beast standards.
Lulu stood still, the incoming flame appearing to move in slow motion to her.
As the flame was about to hit Lulu, she calmly stepped to the left, narrowly avoiding it.
The audience erupted in cheers, as if they had just witnessed an incredible duel.
"Icechill! She's amazing!"
"666! Look at that calm and composed stance, she's so cool!"
"Hey, hey, hey, you people from the Ancient Fog Region, don't be ridiculous. A High-Class Beast Companion fighting an Intermediate Pet Beast, isn't that just basic?"
"What do you know? The same move looks so much cooler when Icechill does it!"
"..."
On the field, Shao Liben issued his next command:
"Flame Wheel!"
Flame Wheel, a Mid-Rank Fire Skill, covers the body in flames and rolls towards the opponent like a wheel, causing damage and potentially inflicting a burn status.
"Gray Gray!"
Ash Firefox let out a cry, then rolled forward. Flames instantly enveloped its body, and it began to spin rapidly, like a fiery wheel, charging towards Lulu.
The intense heat and ferocity of the attack caused visible steam to rise from the ground as it passed.
In the blink of an eye, Ash Firefox was right in front of Lulu.
Lulu seemed to sense that Ash Firefox would not attack at this moment and remained still.
Sure enough, when Ash Firefox was about a meter away from Lulu, it suddenly changed direction and began circling around her.
The Flame Wheel grew faster and faster, becoming a red blur. Suddenly, Ash Firefox leaped into the air, rising to about five meters behind Lulu.
It was going to attack Lulu's back of the head!
"Right now!" Qiao Sang shouted, her eyes fixed on the match.
"Icechill."
Hearing her Beastmaster's command, Lulu immediately swung her tail. A massive stream of water enveloped it in an instant.
In the next second, Lulu turned her body, and the water-encased tail struck Ash Firefox with perfect accuracy.
With a loud bang, Ash Firefox was sent flying like a cannonball, eventually landing heavily on the ground and rolling over twice before lying still.
"Whistle!"
The Mechanical Pet wearing the Referee Badge floated over to Gray Fox, blew the End-of-Match Whistle, and checked on the fallen beast.
I lost... Shao Liben glanced at Qiao Sang, waved his hand, and recalled Ash Firefox.
At that moment, the massive Led canopy above slowly opened.
In the sky, a gigantic Icechill made of Blue Light suddenly appeared.
With a flick of its tail, it seemed to be dropping blue waves downward.
When the waves had fallen a few meters, the gigantic Icechill made of Blue Light abruptly exploded.
A shower of blue fireworks rained down from the sky.
"Icechill..."
Lulu lifted her head, her eyes reflecting the blue fireworks.
Qiao Sang also looked up, thinking to herself that these fireworks were quite beautiful!
"Ladies and gentlemen! The National School Beastmaster League, featuring participants from the Ancient Fog, Yuhua, Lianke, and Xilu Regions, has concluded the Regional Tournament!" Yi Ao, standing on the Blue Platform, held a microphone and announced with enthusiasm, "The award ceremony will take place in 20 minutes! Please stay tuned!"
As he finished speaking, the entire venue erupted in thunderous applause and cheers.
...
While waiting for the award ceremony at the Sea City Beast Arena, in Hollow Plains.
In a luxuriously decorated meeting room, a man seated at the conference table spoke:
"What do you think about the proposal from the Xilu Region?"
Apart from him, the table was empty, but at the far end, a massive holographic screen displayed 12 video feeds, each showing a person in formal attire.
Each of these individuals was a leader from the Highest Educational Authority of their respective regions.
Who would have thought that a National School Beastmaster League, even at the final stage of the Regional Tournament, would require these high-ranking officials to convene a special meeting to discuss it?
"I believe this rule should be added. We are selecting the strongest high school students, and if someone wins a match by using Spatial Shift to remove their opponent from the arena, it's unfair to the other students", said a bald man in one of the video feeds.
"Haha, being able to train a familiar to use Spatial Shift to such a level is also a sign of strength. How is it fair to restrict Spatial Shift, thereby undermining the efforts of the student who has worked hard to achieve such proficiency?" a middle-aged man with sagging jowls responded indignantly.
A relatively younger man spoke calmly, sharing his thoughts:
"This is a National School Beastmaster League combat match, primarily focusing on the aspect of combat. If participants start using Spatial Shift to remove their opponents from the arena, how can we have a fair competition?"
"Didn't the rules for the Regional Tournament change because someone did just that? If the Regional Tournament can change its rules, why can't we?"
The middle-aged man with sagging jowls snorted coldly and said:
"We can change the rules, but we should wait until this year's National School Beastmaster League is over. It wouldn't make sense to change the rules now, after the Regional Tournament has concluded."
At this point, an elderly man with gray hair smiled and asked:
"Minister Zhou, are you opposing this because the contestant is from your Yuhua Region?"
"Nonsense, after all the hard work and talent we've nurtured, it's not a dream for her to win the national championship. How can you just weaken her abilities at will?" the middle-aged man with sagging jowls said with a righteous tone:
"What do you take me for? I am speaking entirely from the perspective of selecting talent, with no personal bias!"
