This is... Everyone stared in astonishment at the chaotic lightning that suddenly appeared high in the sky, and the first skill name that came to mind was "Lightning Weather".

However, they rejected the idea the next second.

"Boom boom boom!"

Blinding yellow lightning flashed across the night sky, each roar seemingly shattering the heavens. A fierce wind howled, whipping up all the dust and sand from the field into the air with a sudden, whistling sound.

Even the hair and hems of the clothes of the two figures standing on the high platform were flying wildly.

This is an effect that cannot be achieved during thunderstorms.

"Qingfeng Yunren has unleashed Thunderstorm!" On the commentary stage, Nefertis's eyes lit up as she exclaimed loudly.

"Thunderstorm, a dual-attribute super-tier skill of both Flying and Electric types. The power of thunder combined with the storm can affect the entire battlefield!" Auror exclaimed excitedly, "I didn't expect Qingfeng Yunren to unleash such a powerful move right from the start!"

Nefertis calmly said, "While the Thunderstorm is powerful, its accuracy is not high. Qingfeng Yunren used this move right from the start, which directly consumed a lot of energy. I don't think it's a particularly good choice."

"The Yin Bell".

Yin Zhongsi called out, indicating that Ghost-type pets are generally afraid of the power of lightning. Although the Thunderstorm has a low hit rate, it can make the Bonefire King feel fear. Both lightning and gale can affect its actions to some extent.

At this point, it showed an interested expression and let out a cry:

"The Yin Bell".

What it was more curious about now was why Qingfeng Yunren hadn't appeared under the Bonefire King's spell.

On the field, Bonefire King wore a solemn expression.

This guy is actually unaffected by spells...

Suddenly, it sensed something and vanished into nothingness.

The next second, a fierce gust of wind swept past where it had been.

Immediately afterwards, with a deafening roar, a magnificent dragon of lightning tore through the dark night sky and suddenly descended from the heavens.

"Bang!!!"

Where it landed, the ground was shattered, and countless fragments of rock flew in all directions.

"Bone!"

The Bonefire King was startled and immediately revealed himself, quickly floating dozens of meters backward.

When it realized what it had done, it was ashamed and tried to hide again.

Just then, the voice of his own beast tamer reached his ears:

"burn."

The Bonefire King immediately stopped moving, and dark red flames filled with an eerie aura shot outwards from his body.

Qingbao, who was preparing to launch a sneak attack from behind, quickly dodged backward, frowned, and revealed himself.

As the camera zoomed in, everyone could clearly see that its two ears were stuffed with white "cotton".

"The Bonefire King is engulfed in bone fire!" Nefertis announced from the commentary booth. "It has successfully prevented Qingfeng Yunren's sneak attack!"

Auror looked at the white "cotton" in Qingbao's ear, then suddenly realized something and exclaimed:

"Qingfeng Yunren blocked out the Bonefire King's voice by tearing off pieces of white cloud from under his body and stuffing them into his ears!"

As he spoke, he exclaimed in admiration, "I never imagined that the white clouds beneath Qingfeng Yunren could have such an effect!"

"The Yin Bell".

Yin Zhongsi revealed an "I see" expression and exclaimed, indicating that it had used a part of its own body as an earplug. It then explained why the spell was not working.

"The Yin Bell?"

At this point, it chirped curiously again, indicating that since the earplugs were so effective that it couldn't even hear the incantation, could it hear the commands given by Josang?

At this moment, the entire audience was abuzz with discussion:

"Can the white clouds on Qingfeng Yunren's body be torn off?"

"Holy crap, I suddenly remembered! When Qingfeng Yunren first appeared, he actually tore off the white clouds from his lower body!"

"Is the soundproofing of this Baiyun Mountain really that good?"

"It's a legendary pet beast, so it's normal that the materials it's made of have a better sound insulation effect."

"Wow, amazing! I never thought the white clouds on Qingfeng Yunren could be used like this!"

"If the soundproofing is really that strong, will we not be able to hear Qiao Sang's commands either?"

"We'll find out whether Qingfeng Yunren will follow Qiao Sang's instructions when he issues them."

Everyone was distracted by the white cloud stuffed in Qingbao's ear, and for a moment no one paid attention to why Xia Huo suddenly gave the command to "burn".

Only Qiao Sang noticed this; she gazed at the figure in the distance, her brows furrowing in the same way as Qing Bao's.

Can you see the wind's path in the summer heat?

The area of ​​bone fire burning around the Bonefire King wasn't large. The timing of this sudden ignition was clearly due to his awareness of the wind's trajectory. If Qingbao hadn't dodged quickly, he probably would have rushed into the area of ​​the burning bone fire...

If an A-rank Beastmaster receives a boost in vision and perception, they might indeed notice the wind's trajectory. However, since the opponent is standing on a platform some distance from the center of the arena, sensing it is unlikely; they can only have seen it...

“Bone bone”.

On the field, the dark red flames on Bonefire King's body burned for two seconds before disappearing. It looked at Qingbao who had appeared, revealing an expression that said, "You've finally shown up." Then, its eyes glowed with purple light.

Having spent a long time with Xiao Xunbao, Qingbao keenly sensed that this was a curse on the ghost-type pet, and it vanished into the wind once again.

Bonefire King smiled contemptuously, and black waves rippled around his body.

But just then, a deafening roar came from the sky, and a terrifying bolt of lightning crashed down.

The Bonefire King was startled and immediately stopped casting his skill, quickly dodging to the side.

But after moving only a few meters, a terrifying gale howled in, and gusts of wind like flying blades swept over it. The Bonefire King let out a miserable cry amidst the raging wind:

"Bone!"

Why didn't Xia Huo issue any "burn" commands this time...? Qiao Sang frowned, various thoughts flashing through her mind:

Could it be that the opponent noticed that the Gale Treasure attack on Bonefire King wasn't integrated into the attack?

Is this possible?

If you could tell whether something had blended into the wind or not, you wouldn't have been fooled by Little Treasure Hunter's stand-in so many times...

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck me: That's it, the trajectory!

The whirlwinds generated by the Thunderstorm move erratically, rampaging across the field. However, once Qingbao merges with the whirlwinds, their movement becomes more predictable, as the whirlwinds controlled by Qingbao will only attack the Bonefire King.

Without Qingbao's integration, the raging wind was unpredictable, so the opponent didn't have time to issue any commands... Thinking of this, Qiao Sang breathed a sigh of relief, but quickly looked at the field with a serious expression.

Bonefire King has the characteristic of a cursed body, and when attacked, there is a high chance that the opponent will be immobilized.

According to the data, the Bonefire King's Cursed Body is an S-rank, and the probability of immobilizing the opponent is almost 100%.

Once Qingbao is caught in the trap, the opponent will definitely unleash their ultimate move...

In a flash of thought, Bonefire King broke free from the sweeping gale.

At the same time, Qingbao appeared not far away, its body stiff, clearly unable to move.

As expected, I've been tricked... Qiao Sang thought to herself.

“Bone,” Xia Huo said.

“Bone bone”.

Bonefire King, covered in wounds, sneered at Qingbao, who was unable to move. Then, it dug its claws into its own stomach and pulled out a bone that was two meters long and glowed with dark red and purple energy.

"The Bonefire King is about to unleash the Flame-Destroying Bones!" Nefertis exclaimed excitedly from the commentary booth.

Fire-Rotting Bones, Bonefire King's exclusive skill, is considered an advanced skill. Its strength increases with Bonefire King's level and energy. It uses the ghost-type energy attached to the bone club and the energy of bone fire to strike the opponent and can burn the target's soul.

The stronger the Bonefire King, the stronger the power of the Fire-Rotting Bones.

It is said that the ultimate goal of the Fire-Rotten Bones is a super-tier skill... Qiao Sang recalled the information about the Fire-Rotten Bones in his mind, maintained a serious expression, and issued the command: "Wind".

As soon as he finished speaking, Bonefire King raised his two-meter-long bone club and slammed it down hard in Qingbao's direction.

Just as they were about to strike Qingbao, a sudden gust of wind swept in, carrying Qingbao high into the sky.

"boom!"

The bone club missed its target, and dark red and purple energy raged to both sides with the airflow.

"Qingfeng Yunren is frozen in place, but it has moved!" Nefertis exclaimed from the commentary booth, "It's moving using the wind! It heard Josang's command!"

"The Yin Bell?"

"The Yin Bell?"

Yin Zhongsi chirped curiously twice, wondering why Qingfeng Yunren couldn't hear the curse spell cast by the Bonefire King, but could hear Qiao Sang's commands. Could it be that Qingfeng Yunren's evolution condition was also a bond evolution?

Auror pondered, "I've heard that Qingfeng Yunren's Beastmasters are favored by the wind and possess the same ability to control and communicate with the wind. It's possible that contestant Qiao Sang communicates with Qingfeng Yunren through the wind."

"Move by controlling the wind... The immobilization effect is running out of time... Just as the commentators were discussing, Xia Huo quickly finished his analysis."

Despite the severe psychological trauma from previous competitions, she still understands the principle of not letting her mentality affect her performance as a professional beast tamer.

She has adjusted her mindset, but she can no longer experience any excitement or agitation during the competition.

"Barrier".

Xia Huo spoke up.

Bonefire King channeled his energy, and a semi-transparent black barrier quickly condensed, its vast area encompassing Qingbao, who had been swept high into the sky by the wind.

"The Bonefire King has cast a Ghost Barrier!" Nefertis announced from the commentary booth.

“Within the Ghost Barrier, the Bonefire King’s speed will change to an extremely terrifying level,” Auror said.

"The Yin Bell".

Yin Zhongsi exclaimed in dismay, indicating that the Thunderstorm move had a really poor hit rate; he had been using it for quite some time and still hadn't hit Bonefire King.

As it spoke, it suddenly realized that Bonefire King was also a Ghost-type, so it immediately changed its tone and called out again:

"The Yin Bell".

Even Qingfeng Yunren, who can transform into wind, might not be as fast as Bonefire King within the ghost barrier.

Ghost Barrier, a high-level Ghost-type skill, not only restricts the target's movement range, but also greatly increases the speed of Ghost-type pets inside, making them move as strangely as real ghosts... Qiao Sang recalled the relevant information in his mind, but did not issue any commands.

Within the semi-transparent black ghost barrier, Bonefire King suddenly vanished, only to reappear behind Qingbao as if by teleportation, raising his two-meter-long bone club.

Qingbao sensed the movement behind him through the surrounding wind.

"Bang!"

With a loud bang, the two-meter-long bone club struck Qingbao hard.

Dark red energy mixed with purple exploded outwards.

The shockwave, carrying two mixed energies, swept outwards, momentarily obscuring the figures of Qingbao and the Bonefire King.

"The Fire-Rotten Bones has successfully struck Qingfeng Yunren!" Nefertis announced loudly from the commentary booth.

“Qingfeng Yunren’s defense is not high. Under the attack of Huo Xiuzhi’s bone, he will probably be seriously injured,” Auror said.

A commotion broke out in the audience. They hadn't expected the legendary pet beast to be attacked so easily, and they were all somewhat disappointed.

However, soon everyone's eyes widened, revealing shocked and astonished expressions, as if they had seen something they could not understand.

On the field, as the shockwave dissipated, the figures of Bonefire King and Qingfeng Yunren became clearly visible.

The bone club struck Qingfeng Yunren's head, but it did not cause him any harm!

Qingfeng Yunren raised its claws and even grabbed the bone club!

"The Bonefire King's Fire Decaying Bone attack struck Qingfeng Yunren!" On the commentary stage, Auror stood up in shock and said, "But Qingfeng Yunren was not harmed at all!"

Nephthys quickly realized something and said, "Qingfeng Yunren has the characteristics of a painted skin."

"The Yin Bell".

Yin Zhongsi nodded slightly and called out, indicating that it thought so too. The Painted Skin could be immune to the first damage it received, so the Fire-Rotten Bones had no effect on it.

It's a painted skin... On the high platform, Xia Huo immediately thought of the reason why Qingfeng Yunren was not injured.

It's just immunity to the first instance of damage, not like the Lord of the Underworld...

Xia Huo took a deep breath, mentally blocking out the face of the Underworld Lord, and adjusted his mindset.

"Bone?!"

Within the semi-transparent black barrier, Bonefire King's eyes widened in disbelief, revealing an expression that said, "How is this possible?"

"Qingqing".

Qingbao, mimicking the Bonefire King's earlier actions, smiled contemptuously, then raised its claws, and a pink giant hammer, twice the size of itself, instantly materialized.

Upon seeing this, Bonefire King was about to dodge.

But at that moment, a deafening roar resounded in the sky.

Bonefire King's body trembled uncontrollably.

"Bang!"

Qingbao wielded the giant pink hammer and struck the Bonefire King hard.

The semi-transparent black barrier shattered and dissipated.

Bonefire King screamed and flew backward.

Qingbao vanished into thin air, arriving beside the Bonefire King who was still flying backwards, and raised its claws.

Under the moonlight, countless dazzling starlight suddenly appeared and sprinkled down, gathering around Qingbao.

A five-meter-long giant hammer, formed from dazzling starlight and pink energy, instantly materialized in Qingbao's claws.

What is this?! Everyone and their pets stared wide-eyed.

The Star-Moon Hammer? Xia Huo's pupils narrowed slightly, and all sorts of thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant.

Are we going to lose again?

No, absolutely not!

"Burn!" Xia Huo's fighting spirit, which had been dormant for a long time, surged again, and he gave the order.

Dark red flames suddenly erupted from the Bonefire King's body, sweeping outwards.

"Qingqing!"

This time, Qingbao did not choose to hide.

"Bang!"

With a deafening roar, a five-meter-tall hammer, formed from dazzling starlight and pink energy, slammed down on the Bonefire King.

At the same time, dark red flames engulfed Qingbao's figure.

"Bone!!!"

Bonefire King let out a shrill scream as it plummeted downwards amidst the raging shockwave.

"Qingqing..."

A gust of wind swept in, dispersing the shockwave and dark red flames. A figure rose rapidly from the blast, wielding a giant hammer, his expression ferocious as he stared at the falling Bonefire King. (End of Chapter)
