Beast Taming: Starting From Zero - Chapter 1337

Chapter 1332 Steel Treasure VS Violent Reis (Two-in-One)

 In the audience, the crowd and their pets, glared at the blinding light, erupted in a cacophony of noise.

  ”Berserk Reese is too strong! I can’t even see its attack trajectory!”

  ”Is Jerome’s Berserk Reese that strong?!”

  ”That speed is amazing! Forget Steel-type Royal, even that teleporting Dark Ring Lord from before, I don’t think it could dodge Berserk Reese’s attack.”

  ”I have a feeling Jerome might win this match.”

  ”What kind of feeling is that? It’s obvious Jerome will win. Just with that Thunder Shadow ability, Steel-type Royal can’t hit Berserk Reese at all.” “

  I think so too. Even if it has Steel Beam, so what? No matter how high its attack power is, it’s useless if it can’t hit Berserk Reese.”

  ”Steel-type Royal feels like a target right now, just taking a beating.”

  ”Do you think Steel-type Royal can withstand the attack of Thunder Strike?” “

  Difficult. Thunder Strike is an Electric-type Mega-tier move with devastating attack power. With Rainstorm, its power is even stronger. Even a Royal-level Pokémon with strong defense has a high chance of being one-shotted.”

  ”I didn’t expect Steel Power Emperor, who was so formidable in the last match, to lose so easily this time…”

  ”It’s just a matter of one pet countering another, but Jerome’s Violent Reis is truly strong. Even without the torrential rain, it should be able to defeat Steel Power Emperor. If Josan’s next pet doesn’t have one that can counter Violent Reis, the final result of this match will most likely still be Jerome’s victory.”

  On the commentary stage, Nefertis passionately exclaimed:

  ”Violent Reis’s Thunder Strike hit Steel Power Emperor perfectly! Thunder Strike, an electric-type super-tier attack skill, even a pet with extremely high defense will be seriously injured by this attack, even if it doesn’t faint directly!”

  ”This match truly showed me what extreme speed is.” Auror exclaimed: “I only saw Violent Reis’s appearance at the beginning in the star array and when it used Thunder Wings. The rest of the time, I couldn’t see its appearance at all.”

  Nefertis echoed:
  ”The Thunder Shadow ability is really suitable for Electric-type Pokémon, allowing them to maximize their speed and attack. Although Steel-Power Emperor has high defense, no matter how high the defense is, it can only be attacked in the face of absolute speed.”

  ”Gui Gui.”

  The humanoid flower-type Pokémon nodded and exclaimed with a sigh, indicating that it was true. From the beginning of the match, Steel-Power Emperor had been constantly attacked and had no ability to fight back.

  VIP Box.

  Margot analyzed, “Without an offensive move that can cover the entire field, Josan will probably have a hard time winning the next match.”

  ”Qing Qing…”

  Sharara looked worried on the side.

  After waiting for two seconds without a response, Margot turned her head and saw that Michaela was still leisurely eating cantaloupe. She couldn’t help but twitch her lips and asked,

  ”Aren’t you worried?”

  ”We’re already on the field, what’s the use of worrying?” Michaela glanced at the dazzling lightning on the field and said, “Don’t worry, this match won’t end so easily.”

  Upon hearing this, Margot frowned and looked back at the field.

  Even with Steel Emperor’s power already under immense pressure and having withstood a lightning-guided attack, how could Michaela still think this match was going to end?
  Suddenly, she realized something and turned to look at the girl on the high platform.

  In the blinding lightning, everything about her was clearly visible. The girl’s expression was calm, seemingly unconcerned about the current situation.

  Margot paused, a question arising in her mind:
  Why didn’t Jossan seem to feel any pain?
  It was known that the Beastmaster could sense the pain of a pet evolved through the power of bonds; the stronger the bond, the more pronounced the sensation.

  Even with Steel Emperor’s extremely strong defense, it should have been severely injured by the lightning attack, so how could Jossan not even show any reaction?

  This wasn’t normal…

  on the high platform.

  Finally, they could turn the tide… Jerome felt a little better.

  Violent Reis, an Electric-type Royal-level pet, possesses the Thunder Shadow ability. Combined with Torrential Rain, under normal circumstances, it’s impossible to even get close to it, let alone attack it. However, according to the data, Violent Reis has only used one Super-Tier skill so far: Thunder Guided Assault. Thunder Guided Assault requires close-range attacks. If the opponent wants to defeat Steel Treasure, it will definitely use this skill. Once Violent Reis uses this skill, Steel Treasure will have a chance to attack it… Josan stood on the high platform, calmly watching the scene unfold.

  The lightning gradually faded.

  Suddenly, a holy white light shone in the fading lightning.

  “Violent!!!”

  Immediately afterward, Violent Reis let out a shrill scream.

  Jerome’s expression changed drastically.

  This… this sounds like Violent Reis’s scream? Everyone and all the pets were stunned.

  On the commentary stage, Auror was stunned for a moment, then said, “Why is that scream from Violent Reis?”

  ”I heard it too…” Nefertis was both bewildered and shocked, “Could it be that Steel Emperor could counterattack while enduring the lightning attack?”

  ”Giggle!”

  The humanoid flower-like pet showed an expression of “How is this possible?”

  Everyone’s gaze, along with the pets’ and the camera lenses, was focused on the lightning-filled arena.

  The lightning disappeared.

  Purple feathers floated around Steel Emperor, its left wing holding a huge curved blade radiating holy white light, embedded in Violent Reis’s body. Its right wing was gone, and at the break, white light connected to the holy, huge curved blade.

  Everyone, including Nefertis, Auror, and the humanoid flower-like pet on the commentary stage, stared dumbfounded, their expressions blank, unable to believe what they were seeing.

  Their faces were filled with shock, astonishment, and surprise; they were all stunned.

  ”Steel, Steel Emperor…it…it pulled out its wings?” Someone in the audience stammered, confirming.

  The silence was shattered, and a tidal wave of clamor erupted from the stands.

  ”Holy crap! What kind of skill is that?!”

  ”Skywing Blade! It’s a dual-attribute super-tier skill of both Flying and Steel types!”

  ”I’ve heard of this move! It’s said that to learn it, you must first pull out your wings! That’s why no Flying-type pet can master it. I never thought I’d actually see it with my own eyes today!” “Anyone

  who can master this move is a formidable character. Qiao Sang is so young, yet Steel Emperor has managed to learn it, and Steel Emperor is even willing to learn it…”

  ”I was quite shocked that Steel Emperor could unleash the Skywing Blade, but can someone tell me why Steel Emperor wasn’t injured! The attack just now was a super-tier skill, Thunder Strike!”

  Skywing Blade… On the high platform, Jerome’s expression was grave, his heart pounding.

  As a student of the Flame Class at Flame University, he was mostly training outside and wasn’t really aware of what was happening at school. However, someone insisted on sending him

  the information, saying that a student from another school had used the Skywing Blade on their pet. At the time, he was only slightly surprised, but after watching the promotional video and doing some research, he learned that the student who used the Skywing Blade at the school was Qiao Sang.

  He knew Steel Emperor could use the Skywing Blade, but the question was, why wasn’t Steel Emperor injured by the Thunder Strike?
  In his view, even if Steel Emperor’s defense was incredibly strong, if it didn’t faint immediately from the Thunder Strike, it should have been seriously injured. Then, Violent Reis could have finished the match with a single strike, instead of being able to unleash a powerful attack like the Skywing Blade to counterattack!

  Why? Why is this happening?!
  On the commentary stage, Nefertis, after a brief moment of stunned silence, grabbed the microphone and abruptly stood up, exclaiming in shock:
  ”Steel Emperor unleashed the Skywing Blade attack on Violent Reis! It has no wounds whatsoever! It withstood the Thunder-Guided Assault!” “

  My God, what an unexpected reversal! Steel Emperor actually withstood the Thunder-Guided Assault!” Auror gasped, astonished.

  ”Guigui?!”

  ”Guigui?!”

  The humanoid flower-like pet stared wide-eyed, its face filled with shock, wondering what the Skywing Blade skill was. Steel Emperor had actually pulled out its wings! Could it put its wings back?!
  Nefertis’s headset was simultaneously translating through the humanoid flower-like pet, explaining:   

  ”However, before truly mastering this move, the pulled-out wings cannot be put back in.” Auror sighed with admiration, “Therefore, the mental fortitude of pets that can learn Skywing Blade is beyond that of ordinary pets. Steel Emperor’s ability to unleash this move is enough to show its extraordinary nature.”

  ”Gui Gui…”

  Unable to put it back in… The humanoid flower-like pet gasped.

  Auror continued, “But what shocks me even more than Steel Emperor’s use of Skywing Blade is that it didn’t suffer any damage from Thunder Strike! You have to understand, Thunder Strike is a Super-Rank Electric-type skill, one of the most powerful among all Super-Rank Electric-type attacks. The torrential rain on the field further amplifies its power, yet Steel Emperor seems completely unharmed by such a powerful skill. It’s unbelievable.”

  Nefertis pondered,

  ”Steel Emperor must have used a defensive skill that temporarily grants it immunity to the attack when it was hit by Thunder Strike; otherwise, the current situation doesn’t make sense.”

  ”The truth will only be revealed through post-match interviews,” Auror said.

  After the lightning disappeared, the effect of Steel’s absolute defense also vanished. It seemed this move could be held back for now… Jossan collected his thoughts and said in his mind,
  “Time to finish him off.”

  At the same time, Jerome said, “Transform into Lightning.”

  Steel opened its mouth, about to unleash Abyss Bite, but at that moment, Violent Reis’s eyes flashed, and it transformed into lightning and disappeared from the spot.

  On the commentary stage, Auror exclaimed excitedly, “Violent Reis can still fight after being attacked by the Skywing Blade!”

  “Violent!”

  As soon as he finished speaking, Violent Reis appeared in mid-air, crying out in pain as it plummeted downwards.

  Auror’s excited expression instantly turned to astonishment, and then he sighed, “It seems that even if Violent Reis withstood the Skywing Blade’s attack, it can no longer move as it did before.”

  Just as he spoke, Steel released its left wing, and its right arm, connected to the white light, moved slightly.

  Instantly, a huge curved blade radiating holy white light attacked the falling Violent Reis.

  Sensing the danger, Violent Reis, enduring excruciating pain, transformed into lightning once more as the massive curved blade was about to strike.

  The blade shifted direction, returning to Steelboom and automatically re-entering its right arm.

  Steelboom then flapped its wings, soaring into the sky. With a shake, countless purple blades reappeared, hovering around it.

  ”Violent Reis has been attacked by the Skywing Blade and won’t last long. Wait for the right opportunity when it reappears,” Josang thought to himself.

  ”Steel Power,” Steelboom responded.

  It couldn’t afford to be defeated two-on-one like this; it had to try that move… Jerome took a deep breath, his eyes resolute, and shouted,
  ”Explode!”

  On the field, a torrential downpour ensued.

  A feather hovered high above Steelboom’s head, countless purple blades hovering around it.

  ”Violent!”

  Almost simultaneously with Jerome’s command, Violent Reis appeared even higher, its expression not one of pain, but of determination.

  Countless purple blades surged upwards.

  Violent Reis transformed into lightning again and vanished.

  ”Boom!”

  Immediately following, lightning flashed and thunder roared, the sound like the edge of the sky being torn apart. The intense tremors reverberated throughout every corner of the arena. Streaks of yellow lightning ripped through the night sky, illuminating the faces of the spectators.

  At the same time, flashes of lightning crackled across the sky and even the ground.

  This was… Qiao Sang’s expression grew increasingly serious as he watched the lightning bolts streaking across the sky.

  This was definitely not just a simple thunderstorm…

  ”Defense,” Qiao Sang thought to himself.

  Steel Treasure didn’t respond; only a luminous, iron-gray aura silently emanated from its featherless body.

  Suddenly, a bolt of lightning flashed above Steel Treasure.

  The next second, all the lurking lightning in the night, along with the intermittent bursts of lightning in the air and on the ground, all converged on Steel Treasure’s location!

  The Thunder Domain Detonation was a combination of the super-tier skill Thunder Domain Descent and the high-tier skill Thunder Detonation. First, Thunder Domain Descent was used, filling the entire area with lightning. Then, Violent Reiss drew lightning down in the target direction, creating a continuous thunder explosion. As long as Thunder Domain Descent was active, the explosions wouldn’t stop… Originally, the success rate of Thunder Domain Descent wasn’t high, so he didn’t dare let Violent Reiss use it carelessly, but now it seemed to have succeeded… Jerome felt a little relieved. “

  Wow, such powerful power…” Everyone and their pets’ eyes lit up.

  ”Such a powerful skill!” Nefertis exclaimed excitedly from the commentary platform.

  ”I didn’t expect Violent Reiss could unleash such a powerful skill!” Auror exclaimed excitedly.

  ”Guigui!”

  The humanoid flower-like pet’s eyes widened.

  ”Steel Power…”

  High in the sky, Steel Treasure showed a solemn expression.

  It channeled its energy, just as it was about to unleash Absolute Defense again, when Violent Reiss suddenly appeared above, letting out a scream of “Violent!” as it plummeted downwards.

  Jerome: “!!!”

  All the lightning power on the field seemed to freeze for a moment.

  ”Steel Treasure!” Josan’s eyes lit up, and he shouted in his mind.

  ”Steel Power!” Steel Treasure’s eyes also lit up, and it cried out.

  All the purple blades instantly rushed towards Violent Reis. “

  Bang bang bang!”

  At the same time, bolts of lightning exploded on Steel Treasure’s body.

  Violent Reis did not transform into lightning, and all the countless purple blades hit him!

  ”Violent!!!”

  All the lightning that covered the field disappeared, and Violent Reis screamed and fell heavily to the ground.

  The lightning disappeared, and the huge figure of Steel Power Emperor appeared in everyone’s sight. Its figure swayed for a moment, but quickly stabilized.

  The camera tilted down, giving a close-up of Violent Reis in the rainstorm.

  Its eyes were closed, and it had already fainted.

  Countless purple blades spun upwards and plunged back into Steel Treasure’s body.

  ”Steel Power…”
