After using cheats, I became the strongest Beast Tame - Chapter 83
Chapter 83: Chapter 81 I Seem to Be Out of Work Soon (Five More)
The Devil Commander Dog’s plump hindquarters were firmly clamped in the jaws of Taotie; it glared viciously back at this damnable crocodile behind it.
All of a sudden, an idea struck Chen Xing, “Taotie, drag it into the water!”
Taotie’s four stubby legs kicked furiously underwater, and with a swish of its tail, the force generated was enough to pull the Devil Commander Dog into the water.
The Devil Commander Dog was an evolved form of the Ghost-Faced Tibetan Mastiff, with a full energy level of 37, and it too had just evolved not long ago, barely reaching an energy level of 38.
In terms of physical strength, it hadn’t fallen behind Taotie.
It still wanted to struggle, but suddenly the nearby waters surged with waves and a colossal vortex appeared out of nowhere.
Not just the Devil Commander Dog but all the Beast Tamers engaged in battle were enveloped within the reach of the Great Vortex.
This Great Vortex move earned silent praise from the many connoisseurs watching.
This Salty Bay Crocodile was truly extraordinary.
The fact that it far surpassed others of its age in physique was evident at first glance.
But the mastery of its skills was also quite impressive.
Mastering an advanced skill could perhaps be attributed to luck, because from the level of skill release seen just now, the proficiency in this advanced skill wasn’t very good; it could only be said to have barely managed to release the skill.
The skill’s pre-casting time was slightly too long, especially the prelude phenomenon. In the fast-changing heat of battle, the enemy wouldn’t give it so much time to slowly unleash the skill; obviously, the faster the release, the better.
However, its mastery of the intermediate skill Great Vortex was truly essence.
Sublime, almost without any noticeable skill casting movements, the huge vortex was already formed!
“Almost perfect,” praised Qiu Shangqing from miles away, with deeper admiration in his eyes.
Gifted in physical talent, quick in skill mastery.
Chen’s Salty Bay Crocodile was promising material.
Taotie, clutching the lower half of the Devil Commander Dog, swam towards deeper water.
In the chaos of the vortex, the Devil Commander Dog couldn’t find its bearings, and what was more critical, the turbulent surface made it difficult for its teammates to locate it, impeding rescue efforts.
This was one of the combat techniques of aquatic Beast Tamers, dragging the prey under the water to drown them alive.
Chen Xing’s gaze was unfathomable. Even if the Devil Commander Dog had stronger breath-holding capabilities than a typical canine, how long could it really last? An ordinary canine’s breath-holding time underwater scarcely exceeds a minute.
This was due to their special physiological structure.
The Devil Commander Dog likely had a longer breath-holding capability than ordinary canines, but how much longer could that be? Five times? Ten times? Twenty times?
Moreover, given the amount of energy it had expended in its frantic struggle, how much oxygen could still be left inside its body?
And furthermore…
The Taotie that was biting the Devil Commander Dog continued to perform the Death Roll in the water vigorously.
The Devil Commander Dog’s muscles were highly condensed, and what the one-time evolution had greatly enhanced was this very compactness of its muscles.
So the stationary Death Roll did not inflict mortal damage on it, but the energy consumption spiked by +1000%.
The Devil Commander Dog realized it was in a dire situation and struggled desperately, its hind legs and forelegs kicking frantically, the sharp claws raking Taotie’s head until it was a bloody blur.
Taotie closed its eyes with three eyelids coming together.
The oxygen in the Devil Commander Dog’s body was growing thinner…
Finally, it couldn’t resist its instincts any longer.
Its tightly closed dog mouth opened, and bubbles rose…
The Devil Commander Dog started to roll its eyes, its struggles growing weaker and weaker.
In a flash, a white figure appeared beside it, grabbed the Devil Commander Dog, and vanished from the spot.
Taotie watched as its prey disappeared from its mouth, furiously biting at the spot where the white figure had vanished.
“Guanghu First Middle School, Team Member No. 2, Devil Commander Dog eliminated,” announced a cold, mechanical voice.
Fuck!
This time, it wasn’t just the audience that was shocked; the three team members nearby also looked at Chen Xing with incredulous expressions.
Chen Xing, however, was quite composed.
He knew that this time it was just a coincidence, in a head-to-head fight, Taotie would most likely have a hard time defeating the Devil Commander Dog.
Because in a direct confrontation, the Devil Commander Dog wouldn’t give Taotie the chance to drag it underwater.
This victory was bolstered by the perfect alignment of time, location, and harmony, achieving the stunning feat of a 25 Energy Level beast eliminating a 38 Energy Level Devil Commander Dog, which would be hard to replicate.
Chen Xing silently reviewed the battle that had just taken place.
Sealing the venue and releasing a flood to create a special aquatic environment was an advantage of location.
The Shadow Lurk Cat knocking the Devil Commander Dog into the water was the element of harmony.
The Devil Commander Dog not being able to breathe underwater, and lacking the skills to extricate itself from the situation, was the advantage of timing.
Only with the convergence of time, location, and harmony could they achieve the results of this battle.
In the stands, the cheering for this victory was louder than it had been for any prior match.
In the waiting area of the arena, Chi Ziyao stared blankly at the screen, Taotie’s ferocious image in the water dominating her thoughts.
She couldn’t help but substitute her own Beast Taming with Taotie’s position.
If it were her beasts, could they achieve such an impressive victory?
Defeating two senior year school team members, one of which had evolved.
In the end, a bitter smile appeared on her face.
No, no matter how she replayed it, she could not replicate this victory.
Unbidden, the words of her ancestor came to mind, “Being first means it’s the highest you can go. Being third means there are still first and second ahead of you.”
It wasn’t just Chi Ziyao; all the first-year Beast Tamers in the waiting room were feeling utterly deflated.
Many had the same thought pop into their heads almost simultaneously.
Is this my competition for the college entrance exam?
…
“Leave some chances for us to perform.”
Wen Jin said with a chuckle.
Chen Xing nodded, he too knew that too much was overkill.
Today’s performance had already been eye-catching enough.
After the loss of a Devil Commander Dog, the situation on the field turned to four against two.
Aside from having to withstand the fierce onslaught of three once-evolved beasts head-on, they also had to be cautious of Old Sixth lurking in the water.
A careless fall into the water could lead to a sneak attack by Old Sixth.
Left with no other choice, the remaining Devil Commander Dog fought defensively, eventually eliminated by a Meteor Wave Kick from the Furious Plow Fiery Ape.
Once only the Earthquake Pig remained on the field, the outcome of the match was sealed.
While the Earthquake Pig’s defenses were astonishing, its formidable protection came at the cost of agility and offensive capabilities.
Ultimately, it fell under the combined assault of four beasts, losing its ability to fight.
The battle ended, and the audience delivered a round of enthusiastic applause.
On one hand, it was for the spectacular battle they had just witnessed.
On the other hand, it was in recognition of the enduring fighting spirit shown by Guanghu First Middle School right to the very end.
“Ladies and gentlemen in the audience, the first match of the opening game has been successfully decided! The first team to secure a berth to advance is from Jincheng New District’s Azure Dragon Eighth Middle School, let’s cheer for them!”
Amidst applause, the four in white team uniforms left the arena through the passageway.
Outside, the field judges who were Beast Tamers entered to restore the battlefield.
They needed to restore the field as much as possible before the next battle, as the flooded area was unsuitable for any new fights.
Meanwhile, in a hospital room several kilometers away.
The Ghost-Face Mastiff lay in a hospital bed with bandages wrapped around it, its two legs hooked up to IV drips.
Next to it, on a small stool, Tian Xuechuan was spitting out melon seed shells, his expression grave.
Damn, just one day out with sick leave, and it looks like I’m about to lose my job?
