Chapter 519: Chapter 478: I Admit Defeat in This Round (Strongly Suggested to Read Along with Tomorrow’s Chapter)

Immunity trait, a pet beast with this trait will not fall into a poisoned state.

In other words, the poison on the field had no effect on the Red Rush Dragon.

Jin Feifan glanced at the familiar figure on the field, his eyes betraying a trace of concern.

Actually, the fact that Qiao Sang had made it this far in the national high-level competition was beyond imagination, but having advanced to the semi-finals, it would definitely be a lie to say there were no expectations for her to win the championship.

"Qu!"

The whistle signaling the summoning of the pet beasts for the second match sounded at that moment.

As the whistle blew, audiences from the Yuhua Region and Zhongkong Region could nearly hear their hearts pounding, everyone tensed and excited.

Qiao Sang formed hand seals and summoned — Lubao.

As soon as Lubao entered the field, its limbs sank into the poison sludge.

The black poison gas spread upwards, and Lubao couldn’t help showing a look of discomfort, but because it was holding its breath, it made no sound.

"Chik Chik!"

On the other side, the Red Rush Dragon raised its head and let out a loud cry, flapping its enormous wings and stirring up a chaotic air current before soaring into the sky.

Looking at the two pet beasts on the field, the audience stands erupted into noise:

"No way, why has Qiao Sang sent out Bingke Xilu again, and besides, if she was going to send it out, why did she recall it just now?"

"Are you dumb? The field is full of poison, should it just stay in the poison all the time?"

"Sending out Bingke Xilu again, it seems she wants to wear down the Red Rush Dragon first."

"No wonder Bingke Xilu didn’t use Healing Light after the last match ended, it was reserved for the next round."

According to the competition rules, a pet beast that had already won a match but was set to continue battling could not be healed before the second round started.

"Bingke Xilu’s condition is obviously not as good as in the previous match, facing Red Rush Dragon like this, it will probably be finished soon."

"Ah! Why did Qiao Sang send Bingke Xilu out again? After working so hard to win a match, can’t she let it rest a bit?"

"I just thought of Qiao Sang’s previous matches, could she be planning to have Bingke Xilu fight back-to-back?"

"...Facing the Red Rush Dragon, you really dare to think."

In the midst of everyone’s discussion, the referee blew the whistle to start the match.

Zhao Chuanyu gave the order.

The Red Rush Dragon’s abyssal mouth opened wide, and the air flow around it instantly turned into a massive red vortex, the scorching and spinning flames erupted from its throat towards Lubao’s direction.

Qiao Sang said calmly,

"Merge with the water."

Merge with the water?!

Lubao, looking at the poison sludge covering the ground, initially resisted the idea.

But this was a competition; any hesitation might lead to its Beast Tamer losing outright, so Lubao gritted its teeth, closed its eyes, and despite the discomfort and reluctance, it jumped in.

"Boom!"

The Flame Vortex missed its target, splattering the poison.

Seeing the scene before him, Zhao Chuanyu’s eyelid twitched.

How could Bingke Xilu possibly meld into the poison sludge?!

Wasn’t it said that this species could hardly tolerate even slightly impure water?

Moreover, shouldn’t pet beasts capable of merging with water be forced out by the poison in the water?

And this was not a matter of water being poisoned; this was poison sludge!

"This Bingke Xilu’s water-merging trait must at least be A-grade." Things Zhao Chuanyu couldn’t understand were immediately apparent to the leaders sitting in the front row of the audience,

"Indeed, only a Water-type Pet Beast with at least an A-grade water-merging trait would be able to keep using its ability while continuously sustaining damage. But even so, most Water-type Pet Beasts couldn’t stand staying in poison, it’s surprising that this Bingke Xilu is putting up with it."

"Right, I thought that Bingke Xilu, as an endangered pet beast from the Ancient Mist Region, would be more delicate compared to other Water-type Pet Beasts, but it seems I was overthinking."

"How is Bingke Xilu’s temperament? Minister Lan should have the most say, Minister Lan, what do you think..." Minister Wang from Chong Island Region said as he looked to the side and then suddenly froze.

The other ministers sensed something amiss and turned their heads in unison, only to be stunned in unison, "Minister Lan, why are you crying?"

Minister Lan choked back tears, "I just feel too heartbroken for Bingke Xilu..."

Several ministers: "..."

"Frost Wind!" Just as Lubao melted into the venom, Qiao Sang shouted loudly.

Lubao immediately understood the intent of its Beast Tamer.

The target of the Frost Wind was not the Chikyuryu, but the venom itself!

Lubao poked its head out over the pool of poison, moving and spraying a chilling breath onto the venom.

Frost rapidly spread, forming an icy crust on the surface of the venom.

Despite being bathed in venom, Lubao was still able to act, though the power of its Frost Wind wasn’t as strong as before.

The spread of the ice was quick but had only managed to freeze less than a quarter of the venom.

So, it was not about wearing down the Chikyuryu, but to freeze the venom to facilitate the next Pet Beast’s actions... I did not expect Bingke Xilu to be able to move while merged with the venom... But it’s over now... Zhao Chuanyu spoke:

"Dragon Dive."

"Chiji!"

The Chikyuryu drew its massive wings back, dove from the sky with sudden force, and as it descended, a blazing brilliance lit up its body, resembling a golden sun sliding down, especially glaring against the night sky.

From the audience stands, spectators of the Zhongkong Region shouted excitedly, "Go on! Charge!" Meanwhile, the Yuhua Region audience looked tense, and those from the Ancient Mist Region covered their eyes, not daring to watch any further.

Dragon Dive, a high-level dragon-type skill, unleashed a terrifying presence, intimidating while striking the opponent, possessing immense power... With this hit, Lubao, already in a poisoned state, was feared to be done for... Luckily, time was up... Qiao Sang looked up at the sky, waved her hand, and recalled Lubao back into the Beast Taming Codex.

"Bang!"

The ground trembled violently, the ice shattered, venom splashed and the spot where the Chikyuryu struck formed a deep crater.

Why did she recall Bingke Xilu? The audience was utterly baffled.

During competition, recalling a Pet Beast into the Beast Taming Codex is against the rules. Before the judge could announce a decision, Qiao Sang calmly stated, "I concede this match."

As soon as these words were out, the entire venue fell silent, then, like lighting a powder keg, the crowd exploded with noise.

"Damn! She conceded? Why did she concede just like that?!"

"Come on! Weren’t you supposed to wear down the Chikyuryu’s energy?"

"I thought Qiao Sang was so capable, but she conceded without even fighting, scared by a single Dragon Dive from the Chikyuryu."

"So, Bingke Xilu was just there to freeze the venom a bit?"

"That bit of frozen venom is useless!"

"Wait a minute... have you guys noticed that the poison gas in the air is gone..."

The audience, realizing the changes in the arena, quieted down again.

Poisonous gas in the air could cause full-body paralysis to Pet Beasts, and venom on the ground could reduce attack and speed, putting Yaobao at a disadvantage whether in the air or on the ground... But after all, gas is just gas; it would eventually disperse... By having Lubao come out and drag out the time until the gas dissipated, ideally freezing the venom as well...

Qiao Sang’s initial aim was not to wear down the Chikyuryu’s energy but to create a less disadvantageous environment for Yaobao.

"Qui!"

The Mechanical Beast wearing the referee badge blew the whistle, announcing Zhao Chuanyu’s victory.

Qiao Sang formed hand seals and summoned Lubao again, saying gently:

"Heal first."

"Bingke."

Lubao nodded, and a blue light appeared over its body.

Soon, the blue light dissipated, and not a single injury could be seen on it anymore.

Qiao Sang waved her hand and recalled Lubao back into the Beast Taming Codex once again.

She then formed hand seals once more.

A green Star Array lit up.

This time, she summoned Yaobao.

"Ya!"
