Chapter 456: The Best Moment
Chapter 456: The Best Moment
What did they see?!
A hundred Blazing Star Hound Clones?!
Is this the level a high school student's familiar should reach?!
The visual impact of the scene was so strong that everyone's minds went blank, even the leaders in the front row were dazed.
Almost every viewer watching the match live stream across the country let out a synchronized "Damn."
While Clones at this level were not unheard of in various regions, the appearance of such a spectacle in a high school tournament, even the National Championship, was simply too surreal.
For a moment, the entire First Radiance Pet Beast Battlefield seemed to fall silent.
About two seconds later, the noise erupted, and the scene exploded.
"Damn, damn, damn! These Clones must be fake, right?!"
"Who is this Clone trying to scare to death?!"
"No, I don't believe these are all Clones. This must be some kind of illusion skill!"
"Snap out of it! Illusion skills can only affect a specific target, and there are so many of us here. How can this be an illusion?!"
"Too many Clones. Just standing there is enough to scare anyone to death!"
"Wow, this is really impressive. Master-level Shadow Clone plus Master-level Mars Rain. I've never seen a combination like this in a regional tournament."
"I'm confessing, I'm actually a prophet. I predict Qiao Sang will win the National Championship!"
"Damn! After just a short time, Qiao Sang has become even more insane!" Shi Gaofeng couldn't hold back and let out a curse.
Wang Yao's expression was complex.
If she had thought she could still compete with Qiao Sang during their second-year team training, now she had no such thoughts. The gap was too wide, and she saw no hope of winning.
On the other side, the students sitting in a row, all wearing gray school uniforms, tried to maintain a calm appearance.
"I remember the teacher saying that when two skills reach a high enough proficiency, they can be combined into a Combination Technique. The Shadow Clone and Mars Rain of the Blazing Star Hound seem to have reached Mastery. Do you think they will use them together?"
"Don't say such terrifying things...
"It's probably impossible. Mars Rain requires a lot of energy to cast, and even a High-Class Beast Companion can't provide enough energy for so many Clones to use Mars Rain."
"Don't panic. No matter how impressive, it's still a fire-type familiar. We have to believe in Song Xinyue!"
"But the Blazing Star Hound also has Psychic Type attributes."
"Let's not scare ourselves. I've watched all the Top Seed matches, and the Blazing Star Hound's major moves are all Fire-Type Skills. The only Psychic-type skills seem to be Teleport and Psychic Power."
"Right, believe in Song Xinyue. Her Fire Swallowbird has never lost to a fire-type familiar!"
Despite facing a hundred Blazing Star Hound Clones, and being cheered on by her schoolmates, Song Xinyue was still standing there with her mouth agape, eyes wide open, completely in disbelief.
At this moment, the word "shocked" couldn't even begin to describe her feelings.
Suddenly, Song Xinyue seemed to come to her senses and shouted:
"Flame Dance!"
But it was already too late. She had been too stunned by the scene to react in time.
The same went for the Fire Swallowbird.
The large feathers that fell on the Blazing Star Hounds disappeared without a trace, as if they hadn't caused any effect.
The hundred Blazing Star Hounds opened their mouths, revealing fangs, and pounced on the Fire Swallowbird from all directions.
"Fire Crouch!"
The brutality of the scene made the Fire Swallowbird's feathers stand on end, and it couldn't focus on the Flame Dance command.
Cruel!
Too cruel!
The audience winced at the sight.
Although Clones were fragile and could do limited damage, the sheer number of them attacking the same familiar was a sight that felt too brutal.
The Fire Swallowbird instinctively flew upward.
It wasn't afraid of fire, but it was afraid of being bitten!
"Fire Crouch!"
The Fire Swallowbird's reflexes were incredible. It shot straight up into the sky, like a red streak of light.
However, while it was fast, the Clones were even faster.
Fire Swallowbird had only flown about six meters when one of the Blazing Star Hounds suddenly appeared in front of it, pouncing on its body.
Once the first one appeared, the second and third followed suit...
Almost in the blink of an eye, Fire Swallowbird was sandwiched inside a cluster of Blazing Star Hounds, like the filling in a zongzi, with no gaps between them.
Under Panoramic View, the Blazing Star Hounds converged into a massive sphere in mid-air.
"Use Flame Dance!!!" Song Xinyue shouted, her voice strained.
Stay calm... Stay composed... There’s still a chance. Clones are not the original; even if they attack en masse, their strength is limited. They may look terrifying, but as long as you counterattack, they’ll be as fragile as paper... Most of the Blazing Star Hound’s attack skills are fire-type, and the Clones can only create some obstacles for Fire Swallowbird... Seeing the "sphere" remain motionless, Song Xinyue sensed Fire Swallowbird’s state of panic.
In battle, the mindset of both the Beastmaster and the familiar is crucial.
Song Xinyue understood this deeply.
She took a deep breath and shouted:
"Don’t be afraid! The opponent is fire-type!"
"Fire Crouch!!!"
Hearing her Beastmaster’s voice, Fire Swallowbird felt the pain from the bites, but it was bearable. Its eyes gradually became resolute.
Its wings suddenly spread wide, and it let out a loud call. Flames erupted from its body, and its aura turned wild and fierce.
The Blazing Star Hound Clones that were biting it vanished like paper cutouts.
The inner layer of Clones was gone, but the outer layer remained.
The remaining Blazing Star Hound Clones seemed to be intimidated by the flames, baring their teeth but hesitating to move.
"Fire Crouch!"
Fire Swallowbird, seeing their hesitation, bared its teeth in a "so that’s all you’ve got" expression.
Then, it flapped its wings and began to spin in mid-air.
As it moved, superheated crimson flames, like molten iron, splashed in all directions.
The "red sand" splattered onto the Clones, causing them to disappear one by one.
Flame Dance, an advanced fire-type skill, involves performing a dance-like movement to unleash superheated flames in all directions... Qiao Sang calmly observed the battle, refraining from issuing commands hastily.
When only five or six Blazing Star Hound Clones remained, Qiao Sang’s eyes lit up, and she shouted, "Now!"
At that moment, Fire Swallowbird was still spinning and flapping its wings.
Hearing Qiao Sang’s command, Song Xinyue had a bad feeling.
She scanned the battlefield, and when her gaze shifted to the sky, her pupils dilated.
Damn! There’s still one Blazing Star Hound up there?!
About ten meters above Fire Swallowbird, a Blazing Star Hound opened its mouth, and a terrifying white energy began to condense inside.
Just as she was about to warn Fire Swallowbird, it was too late. A destructive white beam, accompanied by a piercing whistling sound, shot toward Fire Swallowbird’s position.
At the same time, Fire Swallowbird, having just eliminated the last Clone, stopped spinning.
Before it could even show a smug expression, the destructive white beam hit it.
"Boom!"
Fire Swallowbird was blasted backward like a cannonball, creating a deep crater.
Song Xinyue: "!!!"
Qiao Sang’s lips curled into a smile.
Although Fangy’s Clones could all use fire-type skills to attack collectively, the energy consumption was too high. She didn’t dare bet on using fire-type skills against Fire Swallowbird, which was almost immune to them.
It would be foolish to use fire-type attacks on an opponent that isn’t afraid of fire.
After all, even if Fire Swallowbird had a one in ten thousand chance of withstanding the attack, the one who would lose could be Fangy.
It was better to use a large number of Clones to distract and restrict Fire Swallowbird’s movements. When Song Xinyue and Fire Swallowbird’s attention were focused on the Clones, Fangy could time the use of the Destructive Beam. Once all the Clones were eliminated, and their focus and energy were at their peak, that would be the best moment to strike.
