The Strongest Dragon in the Era of Beast Taming - Chapter 639:
Chapter 639: Chapter 633: Rift Sky Dragon
“`
Bearing immense pressure, Stan Dragonjoy stepped onto the stage under the expectant gazes of his teammates.
The announcer Jay’s voice was filled with excitement as he introduced, “As the final trump card of Dragonsoar Academy, contestant Stan Dragonjoy has sent out his ace pet, the Rift Sky Dragon!”
On the battle platform, the sky-blue dragon wings, like the scythe of the grim reaper, unfurled wildly as a dragon with its head stretched upward and horns bending out from its skull roared into existence.
Its forelimbs were long and robust, unlike the majority of half dragon species, and the dragon scales on the Rift Sky Dragon’s chest and abdomen were ethereal, resembling roaring blue flames.
The short dragon tail ended with a crystal full of thorns, its surface shimmering with the ripples of space.
“Pet Name”: Rift Sky Dragon
“Pet Type”: Fire, Space
“Species Level”: King
“Grade”: Class V middle-level
“Species Skill”: Rift Boundaryless, Spatial Direct Travel, Space Collapse, Mass Flame Breathe, Rift Flame, King Domination
“Pet Profile”: As an extremely rare space dragon species, the defense ability of the Rift Sky Dragon is incredibly weak, but it can use the blue flames erupting from spatial rifts to increase its mobility and reaction speed. It is a dragon species adept at keeping distance and toying with its opponents, with an extremely eccentric character.
“A Class V middle-level Rift Sky Dragon, I wonder if it can entertain Loona to the fullest!”
After using the Illusion-Piercing Eye to review the opponent’s pet data, David Jones still had no intention of commanding, leaving the stage to Loona for a demonstration.
Stan Dragonjoy took a deep breath and at the moment the referee announced the start of the match, he sent out the command with his mind.
“Rift Sky Dragon, Spatial Direct Travel.”
“Roar!”
The Rift Sky Dragon flapped its wings at once, stirring the spatial ripples around, allowing its massive dragon body to merge with the surroundings and vanish without a trace.
“Here it comes, Stan Dragonjoy has chosen to use his pet’s special abilities, allowing the Rift Sky Dragon to hide in the spatial rifts and easily dodge the Star Moon Dragon’s breath,” announced Jay.
“Now David Jones must be careful, the Rift Sky Dragon that comes and goes without a trace in space could deliver a fatal blow to the Star Moon Dragon at any moment!”
“Baa!” (Starlight Infusion!)
Loona knew that the Trainer’s Illusion-Piercing Eye could see through space to locate the Rift Sky Dragon, but it showed no intention to seek assistance.
The main reason Loona had developed the enhancement skill Starlight Infusion (Reverse) was because this type of enhancement skill was almost impossible to dodge.
Even if the opponent hid within the spatial rift, it had a way to impose enhancement states through the omnipresent starlight.
Boom boom boom!
Under David Jones’s perceptive gaze, one could see Loona slowly lifting its pitch-black dragon claw, as a starlight storm instantly formed.
Countless beams of starlight, showering down like raindrops, erupted on the battle platform, creating a succession of pattering sounds.
At the spectator stands of Phoenix Colledge.
Bella Wanton watched the distant splendid starlight with a hint of intoxication in her eyes.
Her little follower, Karen Simpson, couldn’t help but exclaim, “So powerful, such a dazzling yet dangerous enhancement skill!”
Bella Wanton’s lips curved slightly upwards as she looked at Stan Dragonjoy’s troubled expression, finding it rather interesting.
…
“This is preposterous, not even spatial ripples can dodge the enhancement of Starlight Infusion, it just doesn’t make sense!”
Feeling the Rift Sky Dragon’s strength surge like an erupting volcano, Stan Dragonjoy clenched his teeth, his eyes losing their previous calm.
“`
According to the information provided by his teammates, once a pet was hit with the opponent’s “Starlight Infusion,” it would be in extreme pain during subsequent attacks, lose its rationality, and even fail to follow the trainer’s commands, left only with the thought to kill the opponent.
“We can’t get hit by that skill again!” Stan Dragonjoy’s expression grew serious.
Following this, if the Rift Sky Dragon was to suffer another strike of the “Starlight Floating,” it would endure torment several times more painful!
The Rift Sky Dragon, daring not to show itself, revealed a trace of cold sweat on its forehead, its eyes inadvertently stealing glances at the felled pets that nearly sought death due to excruciating pain, fearing it would share the same fate.
“Rift Flame + Mass Flame Breathe!” Stan Dragonjoy swung his right hand forward.
Suddenly, distorted space ripples formed around Loona, with azure flames dancing along the flickering spatial waves.
Like a great explosion, terrifying pillars of fire surged into the sky, lifting countless high-temperature crystallized sand grains that glittered under the moonlight.
Upon seeing this frightening scene, even the trainers in the audience couldn’t help but open their mouths wide, feeling the breeze on their faces, all the force and heat absorbed by the defensive barrier.
“We’re not losing, are we?”
As they gazed at the flames obscuring their vision, many spectators began to waver, and even Stan Dragonjoy’s eyes were filled with hope.
This combination of moves wouldn’t threaten a Class VI Frost Wyvern, but it was definitely a decisive blow for a lower-level Class V Star Moon Dragon.
“As expected of Dragonsoar Academy’s top student, this is quite interesting!” David Jones’s eyes gleamed slightly.
The gap between the Eight Academies and the Flowery Kingdom’s Big Five was huge—the top five places of the National Trainer Cooperation Competition were always occupied by the Big Five every year.
Even so, Stan Dragonjoy had proven through his actions his pursuit of and determination for victory.
“Too bad, playing with fire in front of a pharmacist is a bit of a novice move.”
David Jones withdrew his hand, which had been guiding the Afterglow Array that preemptively detonated the opponent’s fire attack.
“Meh!” (A flaw!)
Loona’s shadow flashed as the “Local Slowdown” skill was activated, giving the opponent an unfair home raid.
If he couldn’t locate the Rift Sky Dragon, then there was no need to search for it!
The next second, Stan Dragonjoy felt a chill around his neck and six dragon claws merged together like a ferocious dragon head suddenly appearing before him, sending his thoughts into a freeze.
What’s happening?
How could the Star Moon Dragon be faster than his Rift Sky Dragon! What was his dragon actually doing?
The Rift Sky Dragon lowered its eyelids to avoid the questioning gaze of the trainer, filled with confusion and incomprehension.
“What power is that?”
To be honest, it hadn’t sensed any spatial fluctuations other than its own, but what was odd was that after it had released its skills, the opponent had already taken his trainer hostage in an instant—this was not a speed a Class V pet should possess!
“The winner of this round has finally emerged!”
The judge announced loudly, “Let us congratulate David Jones with warm applause for being the first contestant in this tournament to achieve a historic seven-in-one sweep!”
After the match, David Jones walked up and shook hands with Stan Dragonjoy according to protocol.
“Including the Star-Condensing Elixir, if you had another King pet like the Rift Sky Dragon back then, would you have chosen Dragonsoar Academy?” Stan Dragonjoy pursed his lips, unwilling to accept defeat.
Maybe his uncle’s choice was the right one!
That Star-Condensing Elixir had allowed his Arcane Star Cultivation to jump from the apex of Class III to the apex of Class IV, propelling him from the top hundred of the Dragonsoar Rankings to the very top, yet he still couldn’t defeat the beast-taming genius that his uncle had seen potential in early on!
Upon hearing this, David Jones was slightly surprised and then firmly shook his head.
