"It’s the Ghost Ring King!" someone in the audience exclaimed with excitement.
In the last two matches, Qiao Sang had sent out Flame Gao and Ice Emperor Ram, but the previous performance of the Ghost Ring King had still left a deep impression on many people.
In the absence of King-level Pet Beasts from opponents, rather than watching Flame Gao and Ice Emperor Ram dispatch foes within one or two moves, they preferred the back-and-forth battles with the Steel Sword Falcon or Ghost Ring King against General-level Pet Beasts.
From the commentary booth, Tian Yiwang spoke:
"In the third match, Qiao Sang has sent out the Ghost Ring King, while Qi Fuqing has chosen the Ink Stinger Beast."
Tang Xueran chimed in:
"Will Qiao Sang seize the match point and win the third match to advance into the quarterfinals, or will Qi Fuqing take victory and pull one back? Let’s look at the field."
All cameras focused on the competition scene.
"Xun Xun!"
Little Treasure Hunter looked at its opponent, eyes brimming with fighting spirit.
It heard the surrounding cheers for itself, a fleeting pang of reluctance in its heart, but it forcibly interrupted the noise around it, focusing its attention on the distant opponent, recalling its Beast Tamer’s instructions, and became invisible at its original position.
The Ink Stinger Beast, a Water-type and Poison Series dual-attribute General-level Pet Beast, would habitually spray ink in dissatisfaction at annoyances, preferred to create immense whirlpools in water to finish targets, with poison-laden spikes. Its trait, Poison Stinger, provides a certain chance to poison opponents through contact, and it has the Humidity trait, rendering those near it unable to use Self-Destruction or similar explosive skills... Qiao Sang observed the Pet Beast about six meters tall, primarily green-black, covered with sharp spikes, and a coiled tail, and recalled relevant information in his mind.
Remember that at the Emperor Level, the Ink Stinger Beast will evolve into the Ink Crystal Dragon, transforming into a Dragon-type Pet Beast.
As thoughts flickered, Little Treasure Hunter had already teleported to the ground behind the Ink Stinger Beast.
Its paw raised vertically, while the shadow beneath quickly extended forward.
Qi Fuqing, knowledgeable about Little Treasure Hunter’s moves, quickly responded:
"Earth Ink!"
The Ink Stinger Beast did not turn around, merely flicking its curled tail swiftly toward the ground.
From the center of its tail, a jet-black ink surged from the ground.
It rapidly expanded like a flood, spreading in mere seconds over several dozen meters around the Ink Stinger Beast, completely concealing its shadow.
The commentary continued.
Qiao Sang issued a command: "Grow!"
"Xun Xun!"
Little Treasure Hunter heard its Beast Tamer’s command, spirit invigorated, raising its paw upwards, in a prayer-like gesture.
Instantly, a Ghost Ring King thirty meters in size appeared in the arena.
The giant Ghost Ring King looked down coldly, emotionless, the Overlord’s Aura fully deployed.
"Ink Stinger..."
The Ink Stinger Beast’s expression shifted from indifference to alertness, a natural flicker of fear passed through it.
Yet, it reminded itself this was a competition, and its eyes exuded a blue light.
From the Ink Pool rose a black wave over thirty meters high, surging toward the giant Ghost Ring King!
