Chapter 78 - 74: Ziyun vs Frost Dust Wolf! 1
Seeing the burst of power from the Brawl Bear Apprentice, both Xu Ran and Ziyun became serious.
Such a powerful strike.
Under the blessing of its inherited fist technique, the strength of the Brawl Bear Apprentice’s strike wasn’t much weaker than that of Thunder Roar and Electric Pursue combined with Ziyun.
Indeed, other Beast Masters should not be underestimated.
How then should the Dark Scale Dragon respond to this strike?
As Xu Ran entertained this thought, the Dark Scale Dragon moved.
“Roar!!!”
As the shadow of the fist quickly grew larger in its field of vision, the Dark Scale Dragon’s cold pupils narrowed into a pinprick, then completely vanished, leaving behind a pair of slightly bizarre, pupilless black eyes.
The omnipresent shadow of the fist slowly condensed and dissipated in its field of vision, leaving only a pair of paws slowly approaching for an attack.
Dark Scale Dragon two stars skill: Starlight Level, Pupilless Eye!
In the next moment, the Dark Scale Dragon extended its claws to meet the incoming fists head-on. The moment its claws were extended, a tremendous power was injected into the claws, causing them to shimmer with a cold light, resembling obsidian.
Dark Scale Dragon two stars skills: Starlight Level, Dark Crystal Claw!
At the next instant, the two Pet Beasts collided head-on.
“Boom!!!”
Accompanied by a violent impact of energy, waves of blast spread rapidly across the entire field from the center of the two Pet Beasts, inciting layers of ripples in the protective energy shield.
That is…
Seeing the situation in the arena, everyone gasped.
The Dark Scale Dragon had unscathed grabbed the Brawl Bear Apprentice’s double fist amidst a barrage of punches!
“Retreat quickly!” Lyu Guang’s pupils abruptly contracted, and his face turned pale in the next moment as he quickly issued a new command to the Brawl Bear Apprentice.
However, it was already too late.
The Brawl Bear Apprentice’s fists were firmly clasped by the iron claw-like paws of the Dark Scale Dragon, unable to move. The Dark Scale Dragon, close at hand, opened its mouth wide and a dark energy spewed forth directly aimed at the shoulder of the Brawl Bear Apprentice, melting a large amount of flesh and blood.
Dark Scale Dragon two stars skills: Starlight Level, Dark Breath!
“Ahh!!!”
The painful scream of the Brawl Bear Apprentice caused Lyu Guang’s expression to change rapidly. He immediately raised his hand, indicating surrender.
“You have my respect.” Gu Ling smiled and signaled the Dark Scale Dragon to let go of the Brawl Bear Apprentice.
The severely injured Brawl Bear Apprentice was immediately taken for treatment. Lyu Guang’s face was slightly unsightly as he glanced complicatedly at the girl opposite.
He knew that she had deliberately held back at the last moment.
If the target of that Dark Breath had been the Brawl Bear Apprentice’s chest, whether the Brawl Bear Apprentice could have survived would have been questionable.
“I lost.” Leaving these words behind, Lyu Guang clenched his fists and headed towards the Brawl Bear Apprentice for treatment.
“Ha~”
The Brawl Bear Apprentice watched its Beast Master weakly, its eyes full of guilt, as if blaming itself for not performing better.
“It’s okay.” Lyu Guang managed a small smile. “You did your best. Now rest and get treated.”
Pacified by its Beast Master, the Brawl Bear Apprentice’s spirit slightly uplifted, and under the warmth of the healing power, it soon succumbed to sleep.
Seeing this, Lyu Guang let out a sigh.
There’s always someone better, and there’s always a higher sky.
Having lost to Gu Ling, he now thoroughly understood the meaning of this phrase.
Fortunately, they won’t be in the same league soon.
Lyu Guang’s fists clenched slightly, his spirit slightly uplifted.
His contract power was not far from the second stage. To participate in the New Beast Master Challenge Match, he had stopped meditating for a while. Otherwise, he might have broken through by now.
After the competition ends and he resumes his meditation, his contract power should quickly reach the second stage, and the Brawl Bear Apprentice should break through to the Elite Stage. Even if they leave the city, they should have some ability for self-protection. Meanwhile, the other three are still at the Transcendent Stage, where Pet Beasts start.
One failure doesn’t count for much.
“Let us greet Gu Ling and her Pet Beast, the Dark Scale Dragon, with the warmest applause. They have won the excellent victory of the Red Group with an exciting battle!”
Listening to the cheers and applause all around him, Xu Ran gradually returned to his senses.
His expression became serious.
So strong!
The Dark Scale Dragon’s skill was just too powerful.
Especially the final Dark Breath that severely wounded the Brawl Bear Apprentice. It gave Xu Ran the feeling that was quite similar to that of the day they left the city and encountered the Beast Tide. The strong mysterious General Stage Red-eyed Demon Dragon repelled the Beast Tide with one strike.
“This Gu Ling is a bit difficult to deal with.” Xu Jiujiu gritted her teeth, showing a helpless expression, “I feel a lot of pressure!”
“Who made you think you have won against me?” Xu Ran could not help but roll his eyes, “Perhaps the one who has to face her could be me.”
“Like that.” Xu Jiujiu’s eyes lit up, “Good idea!”
Xu Ran:”… Ha?”
“How about this. I intentionally lose, and you go fight her!” Xu Jiujiu had a look of eagerness.
“Don’t joke around, it will be our turn to go on stage soon.” Xu Ran rubbed his temples helplessly.
“Alright, alright, I’m just teasing you.” Xu Jiujiu crossed her arms, “I’ll give it my all in a bit, so you better watch out. My dog is pretty strong.”
“My Pet Beast’s strength is not to be underestimated either.” Xu Ran lightly patted Ziyun’s head, smiling faintly.
As the two conversed, the staff had already quickly reset the arena to its original state. Lyu Guang’s Brawl Bear Apprentice was being treated, and Gu Ling was returning to her seat with the Dark Scale Dragon..
