Chapter 485: Pare Lulu
Chapter 485: Pare Lulu
"Seek~"
Treasure Seeker grinned, his eyes turning blue.
Two thorny vines immediately halted mid-air, then abruptly turned and lunged toward Spiky Thorns.
"Thorn, thorn!"
Spiky Thorns quickly retreated, but the vines moved faster, instantly binding it tightly.
Tang Yi decisively commanded, "Release!"
The Thorn Vines were cast by Spiky Thorns. Even if they were now being controlled by Ghost Ring Specter, they would disappear once the spell was released.
Hearing its Beastmaster's command, Spiky Thorns circulated its energy, and the two binding Thorn Vines immediately dissolved into green light and vanished.
Before Spiky Thorns could make its next move, it suddenly flew uncontrollably into the air.
Then it started spinning in a 360-degree rotation.
The audience of Hollow Plains remained silent, while the rest of the spectators began to murmur:
"I told you Tang Yi isn't a match for Qiao Sang."
"He can't fight, he simply can't."
"Ghost Ring Specter didn't even move. Just one use of Psychic Power, and Spiky Thorns couldn't handle it."
"Spiky Thorns is just an Intermediate Beast; it's no match for Ghost Ring Specter. The real excitement will be with Pare Lulu."
Tang Yi felt a heavy weight in his heart. He was all too aware of the gap between himself and Qiao Sang.
During the exchanges between schools in the Imperial Capital, he and Zhao Chuanyu had competed before. He couldn't defeat Zhao Chuanyu, who had bonded with the Red Urgent Dragon, and Qiao Sang, who could beat Zhao Chuanyu, was naturally out of his reach.
But to give up like this was impossible!
Tang Yi's gaze grew resolute, and he called out loudly:
"Spike!"
Spiky Thorns, gritting its teeth against the nausea, tensed every muscle in its body.
Hundreds of spikes shot out from its body, firing in a 360-degree arc in all directions.
If Ghost Ring Specter moved to dodge, it would stop the Psychic Power control... Tang Yi watched the scene in the air, waiting for Ghost Ring Specter to make its move.
"Spatial Shift", Qiao Sang said calmly.
Spatial Shift? Tang Yi's eyelids twitched, a sense of unease creeping over him.
To dodge the spikes, wouldn't teleportation be enough? Why use Spatial Shift?
As he pondered this, Treasure Seeker's blue eyes darkened.
In the next second, the spinning Spiky Thorns vanished from its spot and reappeared in front of Treasure Seeker.
Dozens of spikes struck Spiky Thorns, embedding themselves in its body.
"Thorn, thorn!"
Spiky Thorns let out a piercing cry.
The remaining hundreds of spikes fell to the ground.
Treasure Seeker's eyes returned to their original golden hue.
Spiky Thorns plummeted downward.
"Finish it", Qiao Sang commanded at the right moment.
"Seek~"
Treasure Seeker extended its claws, and a black Shadow Orb condensed, hurling toward the falling Spiky Thorns.
"Use Thorn Vines!" The situation was unfolding too quickly, and Tang Yi instinctively issued a command without much thought.
Spiky Thorns couldn't dodge while falling, but it could use Thorn Vines to help itself move!
However, thoughts and reality are different.
The Shadow Orb moved too fast. Before Spiky Thorns could even begin to condense its energy, there was a loud explosion as the Shadow Orb detonated on its body.
Spiky Thorns hit the ground and was immediately knocked unconscious.
“Qu!”
The Mechanical Pet wearing a Referee Badge floated over, took a look, and blew the whistle.
“Xunxun~”
Treasure Seeker raised its paws and turned toward the audience stands, displaying an expression that said, "Praise me, I'm ready!"
“Wow!”
The audience from Hollow Plains turned grim, while the spectators from Yuhua Region were ecstatic, bursting into cheers.
While no one was surprised that Ghost Ring Specter had won against Spiky Thorns, this was the final match, and the victory brought a different kind of excitement.
“I told you Tang Yi is no match for Qiao Sang!”
“Wow, that last move was amazing. He used Spiky Thorns as a shield!”
“Hahaha, all the Skills Spiky Thorns used ended up hurting itself.”
“Just one more win, and the champion will be Qiao Sang!”
A spectator from Hollow Plains couldn’t stand the smug looks on the Yuhua Region fans and spoke up, “Don’t get too excited yet. Tang Yi’s strongest familiar is Pare Lulu.”
A Yuhua Region spectator immediately shot back, “So what if one familiar is strong? Qiao Sang has three powerful familiars.”
The Hollow Plains team had historically dominated the National School Beastmaster League, and the pride of the Hollow Plains people ran deep. They had never faced such a blow on the match field.
The local spectator opened his mouth, wanting to argue back, but found no solid ground to stand on, so his face grew even darker.
In the first row of the audience stands, the Vip area.
“Great job!” Minister Zhou, unable to contain his excitement, stood up and clapped loudly. However, upon seeing the expressionless face of Minister Yan beside him, he quickly sat back down, his face contorted with suppressed excitement.
“Qu!”
The whistle blew again.
Knowing he would lose the first match, Tang Yi had already adjusted his mindset and began forming seals with his hands.
The Gray Star Array lit up.
In the next second, a familiar appeared before everyone's eyes. It was a creature with a dark purple body, purple eyes, and two purple shoulder plates with lightning patterns. It also had purple knee guards on its legs, stood on two feet, and had a pair of fan-like wings on its back.
“Papa!” It called out to Treasure Seeker as soon as it appeared, causing a chaotic gust of wind to swirl around.
“Xunxun!”
Treasure Seeker, sensing the challenge, responded with a loud call, but nothing happened around it.
Treasure Seeker: “...”
Pare Lulu, a High-Class Beast Companion with Electric and Flying attributes, was extremely rare in Hollow Plains. Unlike ordinary dual-attribute familiars, it had the potential to evolve into a tri-attribute familiar with the addition of the Dark attribute. Its traits included Static, which could paralyze opponents upon contact; Volt Absorb, which allowed it to absorb electric attacks and convert them into health; and Defiant, which made it immune to confusion and unaffected by intimidation Skills.
Qiao Sang, looking at the formidable familiar, felt a mix of unspoken excitement and tension.
This was the last opponent...
On the other side, Tang Yi took a deep breath, trying to keep his tone calm, “Pare Lulu, it’s all up to you!”
“Papa!” Pare Lulu called out seriously.
“Qu!”
The whistle signaling the start of the match blew.
Treasure Seeker, realizing that this opponent was not as easy to handle as the previous one, immediately vanished.
Pare Lulu flapped its wings, soaring into the sky, with yellow electric arcs dancing around its body.
“Papa!”
With a high-pitched call, the yellow electric arcs burst outward from Pare Lulu, spreading across more than half the arena!
