Beast taming, starting from zero point
Chapter 367 - 352: Draw?

Chapter 367: Chapter 352: Draw?

"Awesome, awesome, that’s some serious awesomeness!"

"Just like that, why do I feel like I’m watching an exciting anime?"

"Brother, I feel the same!"

"Despite being an endangered Pet Beast, it’s still fighting so hard, I’m so moved!"

"Binglu Qia! You must win!"

On the field.

Lubao, with a large bump on its head, burst from the water and jumped onto a floating rock.

Qiao Sang looked at Lubao’s aloof silhouette and let out a sigh of relief; she had to admit that unexpected turns in the battle were quite thrilling...

"Healing..." Before Qiao Sang could finish with "Light," she saw the broken surface of the ice refreezing and rapidly surging towards where Lubao was.

This scene was also captured by the audience.

"Does this Snow Guardian bear have such strong recovery powers? To recover so quickly from such a direct hit and continue to attack..."

"That said, I watched Liu Zeru’s matches in the last National School Campus Beast Taming Competition too, and I feel like his style of combat has become much more aggressive this year."

"He has to go all out, this is his last National School Campus Beast Taming Competition," said another student from Xiong Ding High School’s team who had come to compete.

"Actually, I think it’s unnecessary," someone nearby shared their opinion. "This is just the group stage, with Liu Zeru’s strength, he could definitely advance. Why not reserve his strength and go all out in the knockout stage?"

"You don’t get it," the boy said coolly. "Sometimes, you compete not just to win but to prove that all your efforts have truly existed.

It’s good to be young..." The person beside him raised an eyebrow but said nothing more, patiently watching the match.

On the field, Liu Zeru was intensely focused, and just as the ice was about to freeze up to Binglu Qia, he quickly shouted, "Ice Fang!"

Ice Fang, an intermediate Ice-type skill, if bitten by Ice Fang, inflicted damage and had a certain chance of causing the target to fall into a frozen and flinch state.

Here it comes again... First, the ice seals the position, at this time you can either jump into the water or leap upward to dodge. If you don’t jump high enough, the chill from Frost Wind could likely affect Lubao, and once the speed is limited, before it even lands, the Snow Guardian bear, already prepared to launch Ice Fang, would break through the ice and pounce over. If it jumps into the water, it probably will be waiting there too... Qiao Sang’s mind was racing with these thoughts as she quickly responded:

"Melt Water!"

Hearing its Beast Tamer’s command, Lubao immediately jumped into the water.

And at that moment, the cold air struck, instantly freezing the spot where Lubao had just been.

The audience’s eyes were glued to the virtual screen.

All they saw was the moment Binglu Qia jumped into the water, below, the Snow Guardian bear’s teeth had already turned into sharp ice fangs, waiting to pounce and take a strong bite.

"Snow Guardian?"

The Snow Guardian bear bit into nothing but loneliness, a look of confusion on its face.

Meanwhile, behind its head, a swirl of water twisted and transformed into the appearance of Lubao.

The water surged, and Lubao’s tail quickly gathered energy; surrounded by water, the Water Jet Thrust was twice as big as usual and it mercilessly whipped towards the Snow Guardian bear’s head.

"Snow Guardian!!"

The Snow Guardian bear howled as it fell towards the bottom of the water.

It opened its eyes to see nothing but water, with no sign of an adversary.

"Snow Guardian..."

"Snap!"

Just as the Snow Guardian bear showed a baffled expression, Lubao suddenly appeared next to it with another fierce Water Jet Thrust.

"Snow Guardian!!"

Snap, snap, snap... Lubao’s sudden appearances and disappearances, each time bringing a barrage of fierce attacks, left the Snow Guardian bear howling continuously, utterly powerless to fight back.

From the spectator stands, everyone was buzzing with discussion.

"Was that a Water-type Pet Beast with Melt Water abilities just now? That’s so badass."

"Actually, the issue is the level being too low. If the Snow Guardian bear evolved once or twice, it might freeze all the water in the area, and then it would be settled."

"Ah, I wish Binglu Qia would whip me like that..."

"A Water-type Pet Beast with the Melt Water skill should be invincible in the water, right?"

"I saw a post a few days ago, someone came up with a strategy for Binglu Qia’s Melt Water skill. They said just have a Poison Series Pet Beast release poison in the water, and it would either hit or force them out."

Even though the specific scene under the water couldn’t be seen, from the cries in the virtual screen and the reaction of the audience, it wasn’t hard to guess the current situation.

Liu Zeru clenched his fists tightly.

Pleased with this outcome?

To be honest, he was not.

Even though a loss would still allow him to advance, the fact that his opponent was only 15 and had defeated him undefeated made it impossible for him to be content.

Even if he were to lose, he had to beat Binglu Qia before accepting defeat!

"Ah Hu!" Liu Zeru shouted loudly.

His voice reached the bottom of the water, where the badly injured Xuehu Xiong suddenly opened his eyes.

"Xuehu!!!"

A surge of strength from who knows where rose in Xuehu Xiong’s heart, and with a loud cry, he burst through the ice from underwater.

"Lubao!"

Lubao followed closely behind, jumping out of the icy surface.

"Icicle Drop!" Liu Zeru waved his hand and shouted.

At the same moment, Qiao Sang yelled, "Water Jet Thrust!"

"Xuehu!" Xuehu Xiong looked up and called out.

Dozens of solid icicles quickly formed in the air and plummeted downwards.

At the same time, a strong current of water enveloped Lubao, and without hesitation, he charged into the area filled with falling icicles!

Weaving left and right, Lubao, enshrouded in the current, constantly navigated through the descending icicles.

In the blink of an eye, he was right in front of Xuehu Xiong.

Liu Zeru fists still clenched, had no time left. Xuehu Xiong’s condition was poor, and he had expended most of his energy. If they dragged this out any longer, in a water terrain, facing Binglu Qia with its water-melting trait, they stood no advantage at all.

"Ice Fang!" Liu Zeru quickly made a decision.

If they couldn’t delay, then their only option was to go all out!

The cold ice instantaneously condensed on Xuehu Xiong’s teeth.

Lubao, propelling himself with Water Jet Thrust, sped straight towards him, and at the moment of impact, Xuehu Xiong used all the strength in his body to bite down hard.

"Bang!!!"

A vast explosion of energy sent both Pet Beasts flying backward.

Xuehu Xiong lay on the ground, motionless.

"Lubao..."

Lubao struggled to stand but soon collapsed again.

A draw?

The spectator seats went quiet for a moment.

"Actually, I think a draw isn’t too bad, Xuehu Xiong really gave it his all."

"Yeah, it was attacked for so long in the water just now, and to think it still held on and continued fighting."

"Binglu Qia also managed a one against two, which is quite impressive!"

"Ah, my Binglu Qia! Why hasn’t the whistle blown yet? Hurry up and let my Binglu Qia rest!"

On the field.

Qiao Sang looked at Lubao, who was wounded and lying on the ground, thinking of how hard it had trained for the competition in the past few days, and fell silent for a moment before speaking:

"Can you still use Healing Light?"

Lubao didn’t have the strength to reply, but it strained to open its eyes and directly showed its Beast Tamer.

The blue glow shimmered like a switch for controlling sound, silencing the entire audience as it lit up.

When the blue light faded, Lubao was seen standing unscathed on a floating stone, its expression cool and detached.

"Qia!"

"Qiao Sang from Shengshui Middle School wins!"
