Beast Taming: Starting From Zero - Chapter 1425
Chapter 1425. Chapter 1420: Tooth Baby VS Snowdrop (Two-in-One)
Serana formed hand seals.
A mysterious, deep purple star array lit up.
Soon after, a pet beast, about ten meters tall, pure white with ice-blue eyes and long, drooping ears, floated within the star array. Its icy breath formed ice armor on its face and tail, the armor tinged with a faint purple. “
She really sent out Snow Bud Palace…” Qiao Sang gazed at the distant pet beast, his expression unconsciously becoming solemn.
Snow Bud Palace, a royal-level pet beast with both ice and psychic attributes, is extremely rare on Tianyuan Star. Its breath automatically forms ice armor on its face and tail without needing to be used. It is said to prefer solitude and silence, possessing its own territory on Tianyuan Star, where any other creature that enters is instantly frozen.
Of all Serana’s pet beasts, only Snow Bud Palace is truly effective against Ya Bao…
“Serana has summoned Snow Bud Palace!” Nefertis exclaimed from the commentary booth.
“A choice that was completely unsurprising,” Auror said.
“Heart.”
“Heart.”
The most loving heart called out, indicating that Fen Di Duo had just fought a match and was not at an advantage in attributes, so this match would be difficult.
After saying the first half of the sentence, it paused and added, “However, judging from Fen Di Duo’s current state, whether in terms of momentum or other aspects, it looks much stronger than Xue Lei Dian.
” Nephthys chimed in, “After all, Fen Di Duo is currently in a state of fierce fire, and it’s golden fierce fire.”
…
Inside the VIP room.
“Xia Xia!”
“Xia Xia!”
Xia Lala stood by the French windows, shouting loudly, cheering for Ya Bao.
“Jiu Jiu .”
Jiu Bu Gu looked at the snow-white figure on the field, showing an appreciative expression, and called out, indicating that it felt this Xue Lei Dian looked even more beautiful.
“Mo Mo?”
The Dragon King called out, indicating that you know it?
“Jiu Jiu.”
Jiu Bu Gu nodded and called out, indicating that of course, it also watched the news, and many news reports covered when this Xue Lei Dian made a contract with a human.
Snowdrop Palace, an extremely rare pet beast on Tianyuan Star, rarely interacts with or contracts with humans. So when Sera summoned Snowsealed King, Snowdrop Palace’s king-level form, to fight, it caused quite a stir.
“MoMo?”
the Dragon King called out, implying this guy was powerful.
“Jiujiu,” Jiu Bugu replied, indicating no, it was because this guy was very good-looking.
Penjami: “…”
“It’s because it’s a very rare pet beast on Tianyuan Star,” Michaela explained to avoid misleading the Dragon King.
“MoMo,”
the Dragon King exclaimed with a “I knew it” expression, implying that good looks alone would
n’t cause a sensation; rarity was the only explanation. He then gave Jiu Bugu a disapproving look.
Immediately, he looked at Michaela, noticed something, and called out:
“MoMo?”
You don’t seem as worried as you were in the last match.
Michaela watched the scene and slowly said, “Serana’s Snowdrop was contracted when it was at the King level. No matter how many battles it went through with Serana afterward, some synergy can’t compare to that of a pet raised from childhood. Ya Bao is currently in a state of intense fire. Even if it can’t directly defeat Snowdrop, as long as it can severely injure it, it still has a chance of winning.”
Commoner professional beast tamers, with limited resources, sometimes prefer to directly contract with higher-level pets. Serana was like that; three of her five Royal-level pets weren’t raised from the beginner level.
…
On the field.
Ya Bao stomped its foot hard.
The ground cracked, and terrifying crimson flames instantly erupted.
Snowdrop teleported away, appearing high in the sky, its chill spreading.
The temperature on the field plummeted.
The next second, the still-erecting flames extinguished simultaneously, and the entire field rapidly solidified into a thick layer of ice.
The field seemed to have transformed from a fiery inferno into an icy arena.
Just as half the arena was encased in ice, Ya Bao appeared about ten meters behind Xue Lei Dian, opened its mouth, and a magnificent golden beam of light shot out instantly.
Xue Lei Dian keenly sensed the movement and teleported to a higher position.
“Boom!”
The golden beam of light missed its target and exploded in mid-air, the terrifying shockwave carrying golden flames that raged in all directions.
“If I’m not mistaken, what Fen Di Duo just used was the Explosive Flame Bullet,” Auror said hesitantly. “But why is this Explosive Flame Bullet golden?”
Nefertis pondered and said,
“I remember when Fen Di Duo used the Radiant Sun Impact in a match, the flames around his body turned completely golden. Last time, the analysis said it was a combination of Yang Fire. I think this time it should be a fusion of the Explosive Flame Bullet and Yang Fire.”
“Heart Heart?”
“Heart Heart?”
The beloved Heart Heart looked puzzled and called out twice, indicating that Fen Di Duo had been poisoned by mixed poison gas. It didn’t look poisoned at all. “I’ve never heard that the poisoning state disappears after the raging fire is activated?”
“No,” Nefertis said, “Fendido is indeed poisoned. Other toxins might not be immediately apparent, but the nerve mist is already showing its effects. Fendido activated the golden raging fire during a match before; its reaction speed was much faster then.”
Just as the commentators were talking, Snowdrop, high up, pouted and blew a breath of cold air.
Tiny blue ice crystals fell with the cold air.
Then, the cold air descended in a blanket, condensing the moisture in the air.
Tiny icicles appeared on Tooth’s eyelashes, but quickly melted and disappeared.
“Icy Weather,” a high-level ice-type skill, can transform the weather within a certain range into a truly icy world. It increases the attack of ice-type pets while slowing down opponents and even having a chance to freeze them… Qiao Sang recalled the skill’s information and issued the command:
“Sunny Day.”
Although the sun was blazing overhead, it couldn’t dispel the icy weather within the area. However, as long as Ya Bao used Sunny Day, the icy weather would disappear.
On the field, Ya Bao, hearing its Beastmaster’s command, paused for a moment, wondering, “Sunny Day what?”
For a moment, it couldn’t recall which skill the command from its Beastmaster referred to.
Just then, Snowdrop raised its paw, drawing it like a bow.
A bow and arrow, radiating icy energy, materialized in its paw.
Snowdrop’s eyes glowed blue as it drew the bowstring taut and fired the arrow towards Toothpuff.
Wherever the arrow passed, icy energy spread, creating a high-pressure airwave.
The ice arrow tore through the air with terrifying speed.
Toothpuff only noticed it when it was about five meters away and instantly vanished.
The arrow missed its target, but the next moment, it abruptly changed direction, continuing its attack towards the location where Toothpuff had appeared.
“Snowdrop has used Ice Arrow Tracking!” Nefertis exclaimed excitedly from the commentary booth, “This is a combination of Permafrost Arrow and Coordinate Positioning! No matter where the target is or how it moves, the ice arrow will keep tracking it until it hits!”
Ya Bao… Qiao Sang’s heart sank slightly.
When she gave the command, Ya Bao had clearly paused for a moment.
Normally, Ya Bao would have immediately changed position and tried to use Sunny Day.
It hadn’t understood her command…
Even if the bad luck had disappeared, the effects of the mixed poison gas remained. These poison-based skills were all continuous damage. Next, Ya Bao would suffer corrosive damage, its reactions would slow down, it might even hallucinate, its speed would decrease, and it wouldn’t understand her commands.
No, it was still possible it would understand, but it would have to call out the full skill name.
But calling out the full skill name in an A-level professional beast tamer competition was a major taboo. Not only would it clearly let the opponent know the skill to be used, but it would also waste time because the skill name was too long. In
a battle between royal-level pets, if the beast tamer called out the full skill name, the opponent would probably attack their own pet while they were still talking.
In this match, he couldn’t rely on his own command anymore; he had to rely on Ya Bao himself… Qiao Sang gathered his thoughts, took a deep breath, and shouted,
“Blow it up!”
“Ya Ya!!!”
Ya Bao understood, and it cried out excitedly. Then, it opened its mouth and bit down hard on the ice arrow that was coming straight at it.
With a “crack,” the ice arrow instantly turned into shattered ice, melting away under the heat of the surrounding flames.
Xue Lei Dian remained calm, drawing her bow again and continuously firing ice arrows in Ya Bao’s direction.
Ya Bao looked at the endless stream of ice arrows, its eyes glowing blue. All the ice arrows were instantly controlled by an invisible force, freezing in mid-air.
Seeing this, the blue light in Xue Lei Dian’s eyes intensified, and all the ice arrows were imbued with another controlling force.
Under the two forces, the ice arrows trembled, then shattered and dissipated.
Just as all the ice arrows dissipated, Ya Bao transformed into a golden streak of fire, charging straight towards Xue Lei Dian.
Xue Lei Dian drew her bow fully.
An ice arrow instantly condensed and shot out.
Like a streak of blue light, it flashed past, striking directly at the golden flames.
However, just as the ice arrow and the golden flames were about to make contact, the golden flames suddenly exploded.
Under the intense heat, the ice arrow, filled with icy energy, melted instantly!
The golden flames continued their ascent!
Snowdrop’s expression changed slightly, and it vanished in an instant.
At this moment, Serana spoke:
“Winter.”
“Snowdrop.”
Snowdrop raised its paws, bringing them together, and a visible chill instantly spread and permeated the air.
Its ears and tail fluttered like ribbons without wind, and its body was surrounded by starlight-like ice crystals.
The chill descended overwhelmingly, as if the temperature had suddenly dropped to tens of degrees below zero.
Even though Snowdrop was high in the sky, far from the ground, the area that hadn’t completely frozen solid instantly condensed into a layer of ice.
The golden flames on Tooth’s body rapidly weakened, as if they were about to go out, and its eyelashes, paws, and all parts of its body began to freeze.
But then, dark red magma flowed from its body, covering it like armor.
The next moment, golden flames blazed fiercely once more.
Where the ice had frozen, the shell rapidly melted.
Lava armor… Serana frowned, watching the golden flames burning intensely again high in the sky.
So much time had passed; why hadn’t the raging fire of the Burning Emperor subsided?
“Princess Xue Lei has unleashed Winter World!” On the commentary stage, Nefertis excitedly exclaimed at lightning speed, “Winter World! Within this world, everything can turn to ice! However, while activating the Fiery Blaze ability, Emperor Fen also activated Lava Armor! This prevented him from being frozen!”
Winter World, an ice-type super-tier skill, can transform the surrounding world into winter, instantly freezing any creature within its range, almost unavoidably. Unlike Ice Domain, Winter World cannot arbitrarily control the thawing of targets, and once frozen, there will be no consciousness, the brain is also frozen… Qiao Sang watched as Ya Bao activated Lava Armor and breathed a sigh of relief.
Lava Armor isn’t guaranteed to be activated just because someone is frozen. Fortunately, the Holy Fire purified the curse of bad luck; otherwise, Ya Bao might not have been able to activate this ability.
Speaking of which, Ya Bao’s Fiery Blaze should only last about a minute…
Qiao Sang’s heart sank slightly. After learning that Ya Bao could activate golden Fiery Blaze, she had specifically tested it during training.
The golden flames, amplified by the sacred fire and the sun’s power, were enhanced in both duration and intensity.
Even so, time was running out…
Toothbear… Josang restrained the urge to issue a command.
Toothbear, affected by the poison, couldn’t understand her brief commands or codes; speaking aloud might only irritate it.
In a flash, Toothbear raised its head slightly and opened its mouth.
Like an invisible energy bursting forth, crystals in the air instantly evaporated, and terrifying currents of energy shot upwards, seemingly swirling around something. It
actually used this move… Josang was somewhat surprised.
She had thought that Toothbear, under poison, would only rely on its combat instincts to use skills, and only those she was familiar with. But this move was something she had only recently begun practicing.
What was this? Sera, keenly sensing the danger, said,
“Freeze.”
Snowdrop channeled its energy, trying to spread the cold air and freeze the invisible energy.
But at that moment, Toothbear appeared out of thin air behind her, opening its mouth, and a giant multi-headed fiery beast instantly formed from golden flames.
Xue Lei reacted swiftly, shifting her body to the side and raising her claws backward.
The ice crystals in the air surged wildly.
The giant multi-headed Burning Emperor formed from golden flames and most of Ya Bao’s body instantly froze into ice.
The giant multi-headed Burning Emperor crackled, turning into countless ice crystals.
At the same time, magma flowed from Ya Bao’s body, and its icy shell rapidly melted away.
Xue Lei seized the opportunity, opening her mouth, and a terrifying white energy suddenly condensed deep within her throat.
Before her icy shell could completely melt away, Ya Bao also opened its mouth.
A magnificent golden beam of light shot out instantly, colliding with the incoming white beam.
“Bang!!!”
A deafening roar erupted, and the shockwave, carrying golden flames, spread in all directions.
Layers of intense heat and flames momentarily shielded Ya Bao and Xue Lei Dian’s bodies.
In the shockwave, the two figures were sent flying in opposite directions.
“Bang!”
At the same time, high in the sky, the unseen energy exploded at the highest point. (End of Chapter)
