Chapter 469: Ice Pudragon
Chapter 469: Ice Pudragon
"Qu!"
The End-of-Match Whistle sounded quickly.
Everyone's faces were filled with shock and astonishment.
After the initial shock, the audience's eyes lit up. The scene before them was truly challenging their understanding.
The students present had never felt so eager to learn.
"Good heavens! How can it still stand after such an explosion?! Is that even possible?!"
"Is there a teacher around? Can someone explain what just happened?!"
"The Blazing Star Hound is a fire-type and psychic-type familiar, right? How did it achieve such high defense?"
"Did the Blazing Star Hound have any powerful psychic-type defensive skills that it didn't use?"
"What level of defensive skill could withstand that explosion?"
"Wu Chongyu is pretty strong too. I think if he hadn't faced Qiao Sang, he would have at least made it to the top five."
"Wait, can someone explain what the Blazing Star Hound did in that explosion to avoid getting hurt?"
"Who said it didn't get hurt? Look at all those injuries on its body. It must have been the defensive skills that kept it going."
"Alright, so what exactly is the Blazing Star Hound's defensive skill?"
...
"In the Contestant Area, Liu Yao turned to Sun Boyi and asked, "What is the Blazing Star Hound's defensive skill?"
Sun Boyi remained silent.
Liu Yao was a bit surprised, "You don't know this?"
Sun Boyi: "..."
Yes, how could I not know this... Sun Boyi felt like he was about to break down.
Honestly, he had never felt so useless in his entire life...
...
In the front row of the audience stands, leaders from various regions were discussing the matter.
"How did the Blazing Star Hound defend against that?"
"I saw an excessive amount of smoke from the explosion, indicating a large release of Fire Energy."
"Do you think the Blazing Star Hound used a Fire-Type skill to defend itself?"
"I didn't say that, but based on the energy fluctuations, it's not impossible."
"Theoretically, using a Fire-Type skill to defend against a Thunderstorm attack is impossible. The collision of these two attributes would only intensify the explosion, causing the Blazing Star Hound more damage."
"How do you explain the abnormal amount of smoke from the explosion?"
"Perhaps the Blazing Star Hound engaged in a fierce battle with the Lightning Slasher inside the explosion."
"You mean the Blazing Star Hound not only fought the Lightning Slasher within the Thunderstorm's range but also defended against the subsequent Thunderstorm attack?"
"…That sounds pretty far-fetched, doesn't it?"
At this moment, Minister Zhou from the Yuhua Region suddenly coughed and said, "Why are you all overthinking this? If you want to know, I can just ask Qiao Sang. After all, she is our Yuhua Region's student. She would likely tell me even about her trump cards."
"Should I ask her for you?"
The last sentence was the key... The corners of everyone's mouths twitched, but they ignored it.
...
On the field.
Fangy stood with his head tilted 45 degrees upward, looking cool.
In reality, his ears were twitching, listening to the praises around him, and his tail was wagging wildly.
Qiao Sang, seeing this, said helplessly, "Come back, we need to change the field."
After the match, the field was in ruins and needed to be replaced.
The Lightning Slasher was carried away on a stretcher, and the referee's mechanical pet was making the "Beast Retreat" gesture, but Fangy was still standing there, posing.
"Ya!"
Under everyone's gaze, Fangy maintained his 45-degree head tilt and vanished, reappearing beside Qiao Sang.
Qiao Sang turned and saw Fangy's expression, her lips twitching.
Soon, the ground sank, and a new, intact field appeared.
Fangy, still in his pose, teleported onto the field with his head tilted 45 degrees.
Is she planning to take on two in a row... Wu Chongyu took a deep breath, trying to steady his nerves.
But the next second, his composure was shaken.
He saw Qiao Sang wave her hand and recalled the Blazing Star Hound, which had just returned to the field, back into the Beastmaster Codex.
Wu Chongyu: "???"
Is Qiao Sang not planning to use the Blazing Star Hound for the next match? Then why did she keep it on the field... Wu Chongyu, being quick with his mouth, shouted, "Aren't you going to continue with the Blazing Star Hound?"
This was the first time during the National Championship that a contestant had spoken to her in front of everyone. Qiao Sang was taken aback for a moment before responding, "Are you trying to get information out of me?"
Qiao Sang somewhat understood the meaning behind his question, but with all eyes on him and the national live stream ongoing, how could he say that he just wanted Fangy to bask a bit longer in the praise?
If he said that, it would seriously damage the cool guy image Fangy had been working so hard to maintain.
Although Fangy maintained its posture and didn't lose its momentum, Qiao Sang knew it was seriously injured.
The first battle was enough to satisfy Fangy; there was no need to continue fighting while injured in the second round.
Wu Chongyu regretted asking the question as soon as he finished. Just as he was about to explain, the whistle signaling the start of the familiar summoning rang out.
With no choice, Wu Chongyu swallowed his words and formed the hand seals.
The Gray and Green Star Array lit up.
In the next second, both familiars appeared in the audience's view.
"Seek~"
Treasure Seeker waved enthusiastically to the crowd.
"Pu pu." Ice Pudragon politely bowed to the audience stands.
Ice Pudragon, an Ice and Dragon-type dual-attribute Intermediate Beast, was known for its very calm and gentle temperament. Its surface temperature was consistently minus 120 degrees Celsius, and its Trait was Frost Body... Qiao Sang looked at the blue-bodied, long-necked, short-legged familiar in front of him, and the information about it flashed through his mind.
A surface temperature of minus 120 degrees. If someone were to come into close contact with it, wouldn't they really die? I wonder what level of Beastmaster would be able to handle it... Qiao Sang silently complained to himself.
"Qu!"
The Mechanical Pet wearing the Referee Badge blew the whistle to start the match.
"Seek!!!"
As soon as the whistle blew, Treasure Seeker let out a piercing scream, and an invisible sound wave hit Ice Pudragon's ears.
The Scary Face skill, which didn't work on Lulu, was surprisingly effective on Ice Pudragon.
Ice Pudragon's eyes instantly widened, and its body trembled.
The level difference was no joke. Even though Treasure Seeker's Scary Face skill was still at the Novice level, Ice Pudragon didn't recover immediately after being affected.
At this stage of the match, even a one-second delay could determine the outcome.
Ice Pudragon remained frozen in place, while Treasure Seeker's shadow quickly approached.
"Frost Beam!" Wu Chongyu, with his keen eyes, immediately issued the command as he saw the shadow about to connect.
To escape the two-dimensional control of Shadow Control, all the Ghost-type Companion Beast needed to do was move from its current position. Once Ghost Ring Specter avoided the Frost Beam, the shadow would naturally retract.
Hearing its Beastmaster's command, Ice Pudragon snapped back to reality, opened its mouth, and several ice beams condensed in front of it, then shot rapidly towards Treasure Seeker.
"Seek~"
Treasure Seeker grinned and didn't dodge.
Instead, the shadow on the ground suddenly twisted, splitting into several more, each connecting with the incoming ice beams.
The Frost Beam suddenly stopped in mid-air.
Wu Chongyu was taken aback and a sense of foreboding rose in his heart.
He looked down at the ground, and his pupils constricted.
He saw that while Shadow Control was controlling the Frost Beam, it had also connected to Ice Pudragon's shadow!
"Hypnosis", Qiao Sang said.
"Close your eyes!" Wu Chongyu quickly responded to the command.
"Seek~"
Treasure Seeker moved its claws.
At the same time, the shadow controlling Ice Pudragon spread upwards.
Unable to move, Ice Pudragon closed its eyes, looking like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered, a pitiful sight.
In 3D Mode, Shadow Control quickly lifted Ice Pudragon's eyelids.
The energy difference between a High-Class Beast Companion and an Intermediate Beast was immense. Even though Ice Pudragon was a powerful presence among Intermediate Beasts, it was completely powerless against Treasure Seeker's Shadow Control.
"Pu pu..."
As soon as Ice Pudragon's eyelids were forced open, it saw a pair of purple eyes. It couldn't hold on for even a second before its eyes closed, and it tilted its head to fall asleep.
Treasure Seeker lowered its claws, and the shadow disappeared. The ice beams fell to the ground, and Ice Pudragon also collapsed.
The large holographic screen zoomed in on the sleeping Ice Pudragon.
"Qu!"
The Mechanical Pet wearing the Referee Badge floated over, checked, and then used its claw to blow the whistle.
Wu Chongyu: "..."
