Chapter 44 - 44: Winner of the Arena (Please continue reading!)
“An ambush?”
Seeing the situation on the battleground take a sharp turn, and feeling Azurefrost Falcon’s panic, Margaret Yule’s face darkened. She knew her pet wouldn’t be defeated so easily.
“Unleash a full-powered Froststorm!”
“Li!” The Azurefrost Falcon let out an angry screech, as if venting its inner rage, its body beginning to emit small whirlwinds that gradually gathered, attempting to form a Froststorm that would devour everything.
Releasing an area attack skill under Rainbow’s Confusion control?
“Keep your distance, Confusion Strike!”
Watching Azurefrost Falcon’s resistance, David Jones smiled slightly and immediately issued orders to Rainbow.
Under the control of Rainbow’s light-blue Confusion, the Azurefrost Falcon’s body slammed hard into the ground, struggled to rise into the sky again, then continued to fall hard back onto the ground.
“Boom, boom, boom…” a series of loud noise sounded on the platform.
The helpless body of the Azurefrost Falcon sank into the pitted ground, its face showing a painful expression due to the severe pain coming from all sides. The miniature whirlwinds it had painstakingly condensed earlier were already broken and dissipated.
Margaret Yule watched her falcon, which had lost most of its combat power, her pretty face slightly pale, her heart in turmoil.
She knew clearly that if the battle continued like this, she could only face defeat.
At this thought, a determination flashed in Margaret’s eyes. She bit her red lips, summoning all her Arcane Force, trying to activate her Innate Talent—Ice Blessing—as a last resort.
Within an instant, deep blue flames seemingly rose rapidly around the Azurefrost Falcon. Its body suddenly became incredibly dazzling, with large amounts of Ice elemental arcane energy gathering in front of it.
Her Ice Blessing could greatly increase the Arcane Grade of Ice-elemental pets and also enhance the power of all Ice-elemental skills.
The additive effect of these two enhancements could deal up to triple damage to a target with a single skill.
“Full-powered Ice Blade!” Margaret Yule commanded loudly.
Boundless Ice arcane energy rippled above the Azurefrost Falcon, as numerous blue ice blades condensed from the ripples and shot violently towards Rainbow like blue light.
“Counterattack with full-strength Cold Breath and let them see our power!” Excitement appeared on David Jones’ face.
Upon hearing this, Rainbow’s slender body stood upright, its eyes coldly staring at the suddenly erupting Azurefrost Falcon in the distance.
It then started to gather power, continuously absorbing the Ice-elemental arcane energy around it, its mouth beginning to shine with a dazzling, cold blue light.
Facing the incoming Ice Blades, Rainbow suddenly spat out a huge Cold Breath loaded with vast amounts of Ice-elemental arcane energy, creating a terrifying blast of air.
Under the tense gazes of countless spectators, a terrible icy current collided brutally with numerous blue light-turned Ice Blades, like meteors crashing into each other before a resounding explosion echoed in the air.
The deafening noise suddenly sounded in the sky above the Duel Platform, with many spectators directly hunching over and covering their ears.
After a while, the dust in the field gradually dispersed.
Slowly, Rainbow’s crystal-clear body appeared before David Jones.
David Jones nodded slightly at Rainbow and then looked at Azurefrost Falcon flying in mid-air.
“Pull it down with Confusion!”
David Jones didn’t know how much longer the proud Azurefrost Falcon could endure, but he could tell from its flying posture that its stamina was running low.
Meanwhile, Margaret Yule stared solemnly at the always pristine Coldjade Snake, commanding with thought, “Continue with Ice Blade!”
“Yi!” Rainbow let out a clear cry.
In mid-air, the movement of the Azurefrost Falcon suddenly stopped. A powerful restricting force tightly limited the flight of the Azurefrost Falcon, and its blue-white body began to fall rapidly from the sky.
“I admit defeat,” Margaret Yule decisively raised her right hand and said.
The outcome was pretty clear now. If she couldn’t win, there was no need to let her Azurefrost Falcon continue to suffer damage.
“Stop it!” Upon hearing this, David Jones immediately said to Rainbow.
Rainbow promptly canceled the strong Confusion binding on the Azurefrost Falcon.
The referee immediately blew the whistle and declared: “The winner is David Jones!”
At the same time, the sharp, passionate voice of the host suddenly sounded through the speakers in the arena.
“After the intense competition in the morning, the first ten-win champion of the new generation of Trainers has emerged. He will receive a reward of one million star coins from the Trainer Guild and a special gift package.”
“Let’s congratulate him!”
“Ten wins in a row! Ten wins in a row!”
A wave of cheers also resounded from the audience.
Under the guidance of the staff, David Jones came to a room on the ninth floor of the Trainer Guild building.
Here, he would receive the real reward for the Champion Challenge.
“As the winner of this challenge, what do you think of the difficulty of the competition held by the Trainer Guild this time?” Guildmaster Gavin Maud asked curiously.
In the past, the Waterland Trainer Guild competitions were round-robin eliminations. Participants went through rounds of matches to determine the top three winners.
This year, the difficulty of the competition was deliberately increased to select talented Trainers who were good at pet battles in Waterland City.
New Trainers had to face ten opponents, and most importantly, their pets did not have enough rest time.
Under these two critical conditions, Gavin Maud thought that maybe no successful champion would appear this year.
Unexpectedly, the David Jones standing before him gave him a big surprise.
Looking at the impressive-looking middle-aged man in front of him and sensing his interested gaze, David Jones smiled and said: “It’s good, a very interesting competition.”
Gavin Maud couldn’t help but laugh at the words, then decided to cut to the chase and handed David Jones a black card.
“There are one million star coins on this card, which is the reward you’ve won for successfully defending your title.”
“In addition to that, the special gift package you’ve won is actually the qualification to enter the Mountain Southshore Dungeon a month later,” Gavin Maud said, looking at David Jones and speaking in a deep steady voice.
“Dungeon?” David Jones was slightly startled and couldn’t quite react.
When did a remote Level III city like Waterland, with its scarce Arcane Force, give birth to a dungeon!
“Yes, it’s the Blessed Dungeon you know.”
It seemed that Guildmaster Maud had noticed the surprise in David Jones’ heart and calmly confirmed.
“Of course, the Mountain Southshore Dungeon this time is just a low-level ice dungeon with limited pet resources, and the pets living inside are all Class I and below.”
Seeing the joy begin to surface on David Jones’ face, Gavin Maud couldn’t help but cough lightly twice and said..
