Chapter 558: The Training Was Not in Vain
Chapter 558: The Training Was Not in Vain
This Fire Pet Beast also has a Psychic Type... Levina’s expression changed slightly.
The greatest worry in a battle is not encountering an opponent with a type that counters your own, but facing an opponent who is completely unfamiliar. Such an opponent can always surprise you.
The two familiars in front of her were exactly the kind she least wanted to face.
But they do look quite beautiful... Levina realized what she was thinking and quickly refocused, pulling her thoughts back.
At a time like this, how could she be thinking about such things!
But they really do look beautiful... Levina’s gaze involuntarily shifted to the other blue familiar.
This one is probably a Water Type, but I wonder if it has any other attributes...
As her thoughts wandered, she saw a thick Water Jet hurtling toward the Dream Sprite and Season Sprite on the ground.
At that moment, Levina completely refocused her mind.
She didn’t issue any commands.
To become a qualified Coordinator, one must know when to add and when to subtract during a battle. Not only the familiars, but the Beastmaster's commands and actions are all part of the match.
Strategic commands at key moments can earn points.
Right now, she believed that Dream Sprite and Season Sprite could dodge the attack on their own. Giving a command in this situation would be a penalty.
"Season!"
The Psychic Power attack hadn’t completely incapacitated Dream Sprite and Season Sprite. Season Sprite was the first to get up, pulling Dream Sprite and quickly moving upward.
The Water Jet missed its target.
As Season Sprite pulled Dream Sprite up, Dream Sprite’s dazed head cleared up.
Just then, a swirling flame came hurtling from the front.
A green glow emanated from Season Sprite.
Immediately, a green Barrier, shimmering with a gentle light, appeared in front of them.
The fierce flames hit the Barrier, which held for two seconds before collapsing into pure light particles.
Under the light particles, Dream Sprite and Season Sprite had already separated, flying to opposite sides of the sky.
The brief exchange caused a buzz in the audience stands.
Although Levina’s specialty was coordination, she had still won second place in the Global High School Coordination Competition.
The final part of the Coordination Competition is the battle, so Levina’s battle experience was very rich, and her skills were undoubtedly solid.
After learning that Qiao Sang’s two familiars were High-Class Beast Companions, everyone knew that Levina was likely to lose this match.
After all, among the two familiars she sent out, only Season Sprite was a High-Class Beast Companion.
Qiao Sang, as an exchange student from Blue Star, was either the champion or the runner-up in the Beastmaster match, making her one of the best in her age group.
In a match between two top-tier competitors, the level of one familiar might directly determine the outcome.
Regardless, both had extensive battle experience, and their familiars were rare, so it was unlikely that they could achieve a successful over-level challenge like they might against a regular Beastmaster.
Still, the current scene was somewhat unexpected.
They had anticipated that Levina would be at a disadvantage, but they hadn’t expected that her familiars would be so thoroughly overwhelmed by just using ordinary skills like Psychic Power, Water Jet, and Flame Vortex.
At the same time, Qiao Sang quickly analyzed the situation, recognizing one familiar as a High-Class Beast Companion and the other as an Intermediate Pet Beast.
It wasn’t arrogance; with Fangy’s current energy levels and her Flame Vortex skill at perfection, an Intermediate Pet Beast’s defensive skills wouldn’t last a second.
"Take out the pink one first!" Qiao Sang issued the command after recognizing the difference in the two familiars.
She had studied group battles a bit over the past two days and found that targeting the weaker familiar first was a good strategy.
Although she didn’t know the names of the two familiars, it was easy to tell that the pink one was weaker, being just an Intermediate Pet Beast.
Once one was taken out, the team battle strategy would crumble.
And the remaining one would be much easier to handle.
Pink? Dream Sprite instinctively looked down at her own color, then her expression turned to one of panic.
"Meng Meng!"
Not good! It's coming for her!
"Season!"
The nearby Season Sprite called out in a soothing tone.
Don't worry, it's here to protect you!
As soon as the words left her mouth, Season Sprite felt the temperature around her skyrocket.
Under the Panoramic View, Fangy had already teleported behind them, its mouth open, condensing a Blazing Star Hound head several times larger than its own, made entirely of flames.
At the exact moment Fangy condensed its Flame Fang, Season Sprite's skin changed from brown to red.
Season Sprite, a Fairy-type High-Class Beast Companion, changes her body color based on temperature and humidity, but this change doesn't affect her abilities.
"Mirror Reflect!" Levina, who had been closely monitoring the situation, quickly issued a command, her face pale with shock.
Mirror Reflect, a Psychic-type Advanced Skill, can reflect the damage from a special attack back to the opponent, doubling the damage.
Fairy-type Beast Companions generally can't learn Psychic-type Skills, but there are exceptions.
Through professional system training, familiars have a chance to learn some skills from other attributes.
Familiars with the opportunity to learn Psychic-type Skills are invariably those with exceptional Mental Power.
Season Sprite is one such familiar.
"Season!"
Season Sprite was momentarily stunned.
Weren't we supposed to deal with Dream Sprite first?
Despite her confusion, when she heard her Beastmaster's command, she quickly placed her front paws together, forming a diamond shape with her fingertips.
An invisible barrier instantly condensed in front of her.
At the same time, on the other side.
Lulu's body was enveloped in a swirling flow of water. With a swift movement, she shot up like a blue meteor, tracing a perfect arc in the sky and slamming into Dream Sprite with full force.
Dream Sprite's small body shot upward like an arrow, crashing heavily into the ceiling dozens of meters above, with a dull thud.
"Meng Meng!"
A harrowing cry echoed, and Dream Sprite fell like a rag doll, hitting the ground and fainting.
"Icechill."
Lulu landed gracefully, the water around her dissipating, and she looked up at Fangy.
Qiao Sang, seeing Lulu dispatch the Intermediate Pet Beast, glanced up at the sky, a hint of satisfaction in her eyes.
The past two days of tacit understanding training had not been in vain.
Fangy and Lulu, without needing explicit instructions, knew how to coordinate. Fangy successfully held off the High-Class Beast Companion, allowing Lulu to eliminate the Intermediate Pet Beast without any interference.
Now, only one High-Class Beast Companion remained, and they had this in the bag.
"Tooth!"
High in the sky, Fangy completely ignored Season Sprite's Mirror Reflect, and its flaming fangs descended with a direct bite.
The invisible barrier shattered instantly.
The Blazing Star Hound's flaming head, fangs bared, continued its descent, biting down on Season Sprite with a fierce snap.
"Season!"
Season Sprite let out a heart-wrenching scream, then crashed to the ground with a thud, her eyes closed.
"Tooth!"
Fangy hovered in the air, looking at Lulu, and bared its teeth in a grin.
"Icechill."
Lulu's lips curled slightly, but she quickly regained her aloof expression as if realizing something.
Qiao Sang smiled, waved her hand, and recalled Lulu.
Mirror Reflect is indeed an Advanced Skill, but without any cheats, the proficiency of High-Rank Skills for high Mid-Rank students is generally low. Fangy's Flame Fang, though an Intermediate Skill, has been mastered to the highest level, making it more powerful than most Advanced Skills with low proficiency. The low-proficiency Mirror Reflect couldn't withstand the fully mastered Flame Fang.
Of course, there's always the possibility that this familiar, like the Red Urgent Dragon, was not raised from a young age but bonded with someone who had already trained it extensively.
But that didn't matter. This was a team battle, and with Lulu around, a single Healing Light would suffice.
Fortunately, everything went as she had planned, and even the Healing Light was unnecessary.
