Chapter 66: Chapter 62 Too Self-Absorbed
The Double-tailed Terrapin, a Ground Type pet beast, inherits the Deep-furred Tortoise’s dislike for water.
If one were to possess a Water-type pet beast, this match might see the Double-tailed Terrapin perpetually retracted within its shell, unwilling to come out.
“One with an extremely strong defense, the Double-tailed Terrapin, and the other with an outstanding attack power, the Fire-Toothed Dog, who will emerge victorious in this match!”
The audience at the scene, listening to the commentator’s passionate opening, all cast their eyes onto the arena.
Half a minute later.
“What’s going on with these two?”
“Are they going to fight or not?”
“Qiao Sang! Come on!”
“The referee did blow the whistle and start the match, right?”
“If you’re not going to fight, get off the stage already, and let us watch the performance match between Gao Xulu and Sha Duo quickly.”
Among them was a voice that stood out from the rest.
“Fire-Toothed Dog! Come on!”
“Qiao Sang! Come on!” Bai Yunmiao stood up and shouted excitedly.
She certainly hadn’t forgotten that she was defeated by Chen Qian!
On the field.
Chen Qian was the first to lose patience and issued a command.
The Double-tailed Terrapin stomped its left forelimb hard on the ground, and a crack quickly opened up on the surface a meter in front of it.
The crevice swiftly expanded into more than a dozen fractures spreading towards the Fire-Toothed Dog’s position.
It was then that the Fire-Toothed Dog’s form flickered and split into two.
“Facing the Ground Split, the Fire-Toothed Dog has used Doppelganger, what is this?” the middle-aged commentator was puzzled.
He had been in the industry for over a decade, commenting on around twenty matches every year.
Among them, there were not a few on a large scale, but very seldom had he been this perplexed during a match.
Chen Qian also didn’t understand. freewebnoveℓ.com
She had thought it through before the match, planning to have the Double-tailed Terrapin retreat into its shell as soon as the Fire-Toothed Dog attacked.
With the attacking power of the Fire-Toothed Dog, it was unlikely to break through the Double-tailed Terrapin’s defense.
She would then wait for the Fire-Toothed Dog to tire out before launching her attack.
Unfortunately, the opponent didn’t follow her script.
The reaction of the Fire-Toothed Dog to the Ground Split also wasn’t as she had envisioned in her mind…
She watched intently at the opposite side, wanting to see how the opponent would respond.
“Now is the moment,” said Qiao Sang, her first words since entering the stage.
As soon as she finished speaking, the Fire-Toothed Dog on the left jumped onto the back of the one on the right and stomped forcefully.
The Fire-Toothed Dog on the right was instantly swallowed up by the ground that just collapsed, disappearing from sight.
Meanwhile, the Fire-Toothed Dog on the left used the momentum of the stomp to leap into mid-air.
“The Fire-Toothed Dog evades the Ground Split using its Doppelganger! But what now…” The commentator paused momentarily.
Because the Fire-Toothed Dog in mid-air was rapidly rushing towards the Double-tailed Terrapin, making rapid use of the remaining unstable rubble as footholds.
“That agility is extraordinary,” a guest remarked.
“But why didn’t it launch an attack when the ground was still intact? What’s the difference between attacking now and attacking earlier?” another guest inquired.
“There is a difference, the Double-tailed Terrapin can’t use any skills for about 10 seconds after employing Ground Split,” Song Yuan slowly explained, watching the field.
“Song Yuan, so you do speak, huh.”
Song Yuan: “…”
“This is Blazing Charge!” a guest suddenly exclaimed at that moment.
On the field, the Fire-Toothed Dog, using the scattered rubble, picked up speed in its charge.
As it sprinted, a flame burst forth from within the Fire-Toothed Dog, enveloping its entire body.
Blazing Charge.
A mid-tier skill with considerable power, combining special and physical attacks, it also has a chance of inducing the Burned status on the opponent.
“Quickly retreat into the shell!”
Chen Qian swiftly came up with a response.
She of course knew about the roughly 10-second window where the Double-tailed Terrapin could not attack after using Ground Split, but this didn’t bother her at all.
As long as the Double-tailed Terrapin’s defense was strong enough, standing there motionless and being attacked, so what?
If the opponent was banking on those ten seconds, they would only be disappointed.
Hearing the command, the Twin-tailed Land Turtle stretched its head and limbs out from its shell.
It made an effort to flip over.
It didn’t budge.
It tried to flip again.
Still, it couldn’t move…
The Twin-tailed Land Turtle was in despair.
Its shell was too heavy for it to flip itself over!
The Fire-Toothed Dog promptly jumped onto the Twin-tailed Land Turtle’s stomach, tirelessly spraying sparks and a flame vortex at the turtle’s underbelly.
“Lupa!!!”
The Twin-tailed Land Turtle screamed in agony.
“Get up, now!”
A sweat broke out on Chen Qian’s forehead.
“Lupa!!!”
It couldn’t stand up!
The Twin-tailed Land Turtle truly lived up to its reputation as a Pet Beast with extremely high defensive power.
Even while attacking its weakest defense point, the underbelly, the Fire-Toothed Dog took about two full minutes to make it faint.
Fortunately, the Fire-Toothed Dog was always training to unleash skills, so two minutes of continuous skill release didn’t make it feel too strained.
“The victor is contestant Qiao Sang!”
The Fire-Toothed Dog ran excitedly towards its Beast Tamer, but restrained itself from grinning too widely because of the many people watching.
Qiao Sang caught her Fire-Toothed Dog in one motion, her face a mixture of emotions.
The match had unfolded just as she expected, although there were some minor differences.
For instance.
If she knew that the Twin-tailed Land Turtle couldn’t flip over and would expose its head and limbs, then why attack its underbelly at all?
Why not directly attack its head?!
Her own Pet Beast was just too obedient…
