Beast taming, starting from zero point novel Chapter 442

Chapter 442: Chapter 417: It’s Not Just Your Pet Beast That Can

On the field.

"Burp~"

Xiao Xunbao checked its own body condition.

Hmm... it didn’t feel like evolving, it seemed more hard work was needed...

"Search..."

Xiao Xunbao looked at the opponent in front of it, showing a serious expression.

The Snow Aohu, a mid-level Ice-Type Pet Beast from the Ancient Mist Region, was especially good at staying up late, often performing better at night than in the morning... Qiao Sang’s mind flashed through information related to the all-white beast with black rings around its eyes.

In the competitors’ area, the crowd watching the still unyielding Treasure-seeking Demon couldn’t help but discuss.

"Why is Qiao Sang still using the Treasure-seeking Demon?"

"The Treasure-seeking Demon isn’t the type for prolonged battles; he probably wants a quick fight, thinking the energy spent in the first round wasn’t much."

"Why not just send out the Liaoxing Dog or Bingke Xilu, why go for something thrilling?"

"The thought process of a genius is not something we ordinary folks can comprehend."

"..."

Those who had made it to the divisional competition were geniuses from various regions, but compared to Qiao Sang, everyone else seemed quite ordinary.

This remark pierced their hearts like a knife.

It hurt, it hurt so much!

The most upsetting part was that no one immediately spoke up to contradict it.

This meant that subconsciously, no one thought there was anything wrong with the statement.

...

As the match began, Xiao Xunbao instinctively wanted to hide its figure.

But thinking of its burping, it refrained.

"Search... burp~" _{freeweɓnøvel.com}

Xiao Xunbao sighed like an experienced adult.

Burping was so annoying...

"Snow Aohu!"

While Xiao Xunbao halted briefly due to burping, the Snow Aohu did not hesitate; it opened its mouth and spewed out a white mist.

The mist surged with coldness, visibly covering most of the field.

Chen Ye silently exhaled, trying to adjust his emotions to their best.

Right now, he had no other thought than wanting to defeat the Treasure-seeking Demon and make Qiao Sang summon Bingke Xilu to battle him next.

Even if Bingke Xilu came out and defeated the Snow Aohu in one second, he would accept it!

The white, cold mist concealed the figure of the Snow Aohu.

Ice Fog, a mid-level Ice Skill, differed from Water Fog only in its lower temperature, and as mastery increased, supercooled water and ice crystals would form within... Qiao Sang spoke:

"Invisibility."

Though Xiao Xunbao was burping at the moment, not being able to see the opponent in the Ice Fog, invisibility was still better than being visible and constantly tensely worried about an unseen attack.

After all, burping was not continuous, and there were quiet moments in between when the opponent would have to spend time determining Xiao Xunbao’s location.

"Burp~"

Xiao Xunbao obediently disappeared from sight.

At the moment of its disappearance, a white ice line shot out, striking precisely where Xiao Xunbao had been just before vanishing.

Did it miss... Chen Ye’s heart sank on not hearing a scream, but he quickly comforted himself:

No worries, no problem. If one strike didn’t hit, then try another. The Treasure-seeking Demon keeps burping, essentially revealing its location periodically. He just had to hit when it burped next.

"Burp~"

At that moment, the burping sound suddenly echoed through the white Ice Fog.

"Freezing Beam!" Chen Ye’s face lit up with joy as he called out loudly.

The Snow Aohu immediately shot the freezing beam toward the location of the sound.

The white ice beam penetrated the Ice Fog and didn’t hit anything.

"Move quickly!" Chen Ye’s expression changed, and he shouted loudly.

He couldn’t lose! Otherwise, where would he ever find another chance to battle against Bingke Xilu in his lifetime! Chen Ye roared inwardly.

But it was already too late. The Liaoxing Dog fired the freezing beam toward the direction of the noise, not noticing several black shadows attacking from its left.

"Liaoxing!"

The Liaoxing Dog struggled, then it saw a pair of blue eyes.

At that moment, the ice fog dissipated, and everyone could see two Treasure-seeking Demons and one Liaoxing Dog with its eyes closed on the ground.

The next second, one of the Treasure-seeking Demons that was farther away from the Liaoxing Dog suddenly disappeared.

"End!"

A Mechanical Beast wearing a referee badge floated over to take a look and blew the whistle indicating the end of the match.

Qiao Sang looked towards Chen Ye, who had a dazed expression on his face, and smiled, "It’s not just your Pet Beast that can use a substitute."

Xiao Xunbao might not be able to move its substitute while using other Skills, but making it burp twice was doable.

"Xun~"

Xiao Xunbao nodded with a proud expression.

It’s just so hard to want a match on the same stage as Bingke Xilu... Hearing Qiao Sang’s words, tears started streaming down Chen Ye’s face.

Why start crying all of a sudden... Qiao Sang was dumbfounded.

She had never encountered an opponent who cried after losing a match until now...

As Chen Ye cried, the audience in the stands also discussed.

"What the hell, that was it? I didn’t see anything!"

"I hate stuff like fog and smoke the most, I have no idea what’s happening inside."

"Right when the ice fog cleared, I saw two Spectral Series Pet Beasts, but I’m not sure what they did."

"It was a substitute. The Treasure-seeking Demon used its substitute to belch and deceive the opponent about its whereabouts while the real body sought out the opponent’s location to launch an attack."

There were some high-level Beast Tamers in the audience stands who could easily see through the situation on the field with their senses and experience.

Amidst the discussion of the crowd, Qiao Sang left the arena.
