Beast Taming: Starting From Zero

When Qiao Sang opened her eyes, She realized she had become a middle-school student

Immediately afterwards, She was greeted with a mock test.

Having graduated from a 985 university, wou...

Chapters 1426 and 1421: The Invisible Rain of Fire (Combined)

The temperature on the field rose sharply.

Unseen streams of energy, distorting the surrounding air, fell from the sky.

Wherever it landed, all the floating crystals in the air evaporated and disappeared.

"Bang bang bang!!!"

Explosions rang out one after another, the ice shell cracked, ice fragments flew everywhere, and the ground was blasted into craters.

The entire venue was plunged into a distorted and extremely hot state.

"Xue Lei!"

Suddenly, Xue Lei Palace let out a miserable scream.

Its body was also in a distorted state, and the ice armor on its face and tail was shattered by the collision of unseen energy.

What is this? In the audience, everyone and their pets showed expressions of shock and astonishment.

The audience members who managed to snag tickets to watch the Master Challenge live couldn't compare to professional Beast Tamers in terms of their expertise in Beast Taming. However, they had seen everything from small-scale neighborhood battles to large-scale interstellar competitions. Basically, whenever a pet used a skill, even if they couldn't immediately recall the skill name, they would have some impression of it.

They had absolutely no recollection of the skills currently on the field!

On the commentary stand, Aurore exclaimed in shock:

"The Burning Emperor unleashed an unseen fire skill!"

"Heart Heart." Heart Heart pondered for a moment, then called out, indicating that it only knew about the illusory flame skill.

"Virtual Flame?" Nephthys was suddenly enlightened; her astonishment turned to surprise, and she said:

"Invisible flames fell like rain; the Burning Emperor had fused the Rain of Sparks and the Void Flame together! He had unleashed the Invisible Rain of Sparks!"

As soon as these words were spoken, a commotion arose. Many spectators showed expressions of sudden realization, surprise, and excitement, and took out their phones to take pictures of the scene.

They've seen a lot of combo techniques. In the history of Beast Taming battles, many combo techniques are based on previous techniques. Only a few famous professional Beast Tamers can develop their own unique combo techniques.

Sometimes, to determine whether a professional beast tamer is qualified to become a beast taming master, one only needs to see if they have developed their own combination skills, so that when others see this combination skill in major competitions, they will immediately associate it with the beast taming master.

It is certain that the combination of Phantom Flame and Spark Rain has never been seen before.

"Virtual Flame plus Sparks Rain! Josan has unveiled a combination move that is making its debut in major tournaments at this year's Masters Challenge!" Nefertis exclaimed excitedly from the commentary booth.

"What an amazing talent," Auror exclaimed. "To think of combining the phantom flames and the sparks of fire together, creating an invisible rain of fire, is going to give Serana a headache."

"Heart."

Zhi Ai let out a heart-shaped cry, indicating that aside from being invisible, it remembered that highly skilled Void Flames would burn continuously and could not be extinguished.

After saying that, it looked at the scene on the field, a look of amazement on its face, and exclaimed again:

"Heart."

If that's the case, it's quite terrifying that these fire rains can't be extinguished. No wonder they were able to directly destroy the Snow Fairy Palace's Winter World.

Nephthys said, "Some high-level skills combined together can be even more terrifying than some super-level skills. The combination skill that Fen Diduo is currently using is such a skill."

“However, this also depends on the proficiency of the combined skills, as well as the proficiency of the super-tier skills,” Auror said. “Judging from the current situation, the proficiency of the Winter World is insufficient to completely extinguish these fire rains.”

Nefertis asked curiously, "I wonder if Josan has named this combination move."

Generally speaking, the beastmaster who first develops a combination technique has the right to name it, and even if subsequent beastmasters learn the same combination technique, they will still call it by that name.

...

at the same time.

VIP room.

"Xiaxia!"

"Xiaxia!"

Sharara stood by the French windows, calling out excitedly.

"I never expected Ya Bao to actually pull off that move!" Michaela exclaimed in delight.

During this time, she knew that Qiao Sang had been helping Ya Bao train this combination move, but it was still in practice. She had just successfully performed it yesterday during the final training session, and she didn't expect to be able to perform it again in the competition.

Even if Xue Lei Palace manages to extinguish the raging fire eventually, she will be severely injured, if not seriously wounded.

In her opinion, Ya Bao's competition this time has been a complete success.

"Grind it."

The Dragon King exclaimed, indicating that Ya Bao's combat talent was truly remarkable; even after being poisoned so much, he could still fight like this.

...

On the field.

Sera's pupils contracted slightly as she looked at the almost distorted space before her and the surrounding high temperature, quickly making a judgment:

Martian rain, the invisible Martian rain!

Instead of extinguishing itself upon falling into the frigid winter world, it shattered the ice armor that had automatically formed on Princess Xue Lei's body.

It's a phantom flame, a shower of sparks formed from a phantom flame!

To extinguish the illusory flames, one must either isolate them from the air or suppress them with absolute power. The Burning Emperor has now unleashed a golden raging fire, further enhanced by the power of the sun. In terms of energy, the Snow Lotus Palace may not be able to match it. However, the Snow Lotus Palace's primary attribute is ice, so extinguishing most of the illusory flames should not be a problem.

It's almost over; the raging fire of the Burning Emperor should be extinguished soon...

Serana gathered her thoughts and issued the command: "Lower defenses!"

Despite the pain, Xue Lei Palace circulated her energy, and a visible chill spread from her body, causing countless ice crystals to reappear.

In the air, most of the invisible illusory fire vanished instantly.

At the same time, the chilling aura surrounding Xue Lei Palace rapidly condensed into exquisite ice armor, enveloping its entire body.

However, before the ice armor could fully solidify, a magnificent golden beam of light instantly struck.

Xue Lei Palace instantly disappeared.

"Bang bang bang!!!"

The fire rain was still falling.

Some of the fire rain extinguished, but some continued to fall, bombarding Xue Lei Dian.

The ice armor that hadn't had time to solidify shattered into a large portion.

Just as Xue Lei Palace was preparing to reassemble her ice armor for defense, another golden beam of light struck.

Xue Lei Palace instantly disappeared.

But at that moment, the immense gravity suddenly dropped.

The reappearance of Xue Lei Palace caught everyone off guard, and she was "slapped" directly to the ground.

With a loud bang, the ice shell shattered, and the ground cracked.

The opportunity has arrived! Qiao Sang's eyes lit up when he saw this, but he still restrained the urge to issue the command.

The commands I'm issuing now might affect Ya Bao's instinctive attacks.

High in the sky, Ya Bao, whose golden flames had weakened considerably, looked down at Xue Lei Palace on the ground and opened its mouth.

The raging flames on Emperor Fen's body are almost gone, and the power of his skills will also weaken accordingly. Now is a good time to attack... Serana also sensed the opportunity and issued a command:

"Freeze!"

"Xue Lei!"

The Snow Blossom Palace was pressed down by immense gravity and could not move immediately. It could only lie flat on the ground and circulate its energy.

The next second, all the remaining ice fragments on the entire site seemed to come alive, levitating, rapidly gathering, and frantically swirling around the Snow Lotus Palace, forming an ice storm tens of meters long.

"Princess Xue Lei has unleashed a super-tier skill, Ice Crystal Storm!" Nefertis announced loudly from the commentary platform.

Just as it opened its mouth, golden flames shot out from Toothbear's mouth.

The flame was incredibly warm, golden in color, and only about a meter thick, without any scorching sensation.

"Bang!!!"

Golden flames shot down, bombarding the newly formed, upward-facing ice storm. The ice storm had no ability to resist and exploded directly!

With another loud "bang," golden flames shattered the ice storm and struck Xue Lei Dian.

The shockwave exploded suddenly, accompanied by a golden light.

The light was so dazzling that it almost burned the eyes of the audience, who instinctively raised their hands to shield their eyes.

It felt like the sun was exploding, but without the suffocating heat I had imagined.

"Xue Lei!!!"

Amidst the holy golden light, Xue Lei Palace let out an extremely pitiful scream.

"Bang!"

At the same time, Ya Bao in the sky seemed to burn out, its flames went out, and it fell to the ground.

"Xue Lei!"

"Xue Lei!"

The golden light disappeared, but Xue Leidian did not faint. Instead, she rolled around in agony, screaming in agony as if she were still experiencing some unbearable pain.

The entire room fell silent.

After a brief silence, a clamor arose like dust.

"What kind of skill is this? I've never seen it before!"

"Wait, what kind of flame is this? Is it really that powerful?"

"Ice Crystal Storm is a super-level skill, right? Apart from its color, this flame doesn't look particularly special, yet it can directly crush the Ice Crystal Storm?"

"My god, did the Burning Emperor really have so many trump cards up his sleeve...?"

"The raging fire of the Burning Emperor is gone. Although the Snow Blossom Palace did not fall, it looks like it is seriously injured. It should not be able to compete in the next round. The Burning Emperor traded one for two. Qiao Sang's chances of winning seem to have increased."

"Who said Princess Xue Lei can't compete in the next round? So what if she's seriously injured? She can rest in the Beast Taming Manual for a while and recover her strength. Then she can continue..."

The noise suddenly subsided.

On the field, Xue Lei, who had been rolling around and screaming in pain, seemed to have finally reached her limit and stopped, her eyes turning dizzy.

Not far away, Toothpick moved its paws, struggling to get up.

The flames on its body were gone, revealing a purplish-black body, looking as if it had been severely poisoned.

What kind of skill was that just now...? Serana looked at the fallen Snow Fairy, then at the Burning Emperor who was trying to get up, her brows furrowed.

Ya Bao… Qiao Sang felt both excited and moved.

What's exciting is that Ya Bao defeated Xue Lei Dian without its own commands and while poisoned; what's touching is that even so badly injured, it still wanted to stand up again.

On the commentary stage, Nefertis suppressed her astonishment, took a deep breath, and announced loudly:

"The Burning Emperor has unleashed a mysterious fire skill, striking Princess Snowdrop! Is the outcome of this match about to be decided?!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the mechanical-type pet wearing the referee's badge glanced at Fangbao, whose paws could still move, and then came to Xuelei's side to observe it.

Instead of immediately blowing the whistle to signal the end of the game and raising the flag, it came to Ya Bao's side.

At this moment, Toothpick pressed his paws to the ground, struggling to get up, but he was unsuccessful.

According to the competition rules, if a pet falls to the ground, is still conscious, but is unable to stand up again, it is still considered a loss.

The pet wearing the referee's badge began the countdown.

Ya Bao's vision was blurry.

Looking at its fallen opponent not far away, it felt that it had not yet won, but couldn't figure out why.

The opponent had already fallen...

Ya Bao struggled to stand up, but the continuous injuries to his body left him completely powerless.

"tooth……"

I should have won, right? My opponent is already down...

Ya Bao stopped struggling and slowly closed her eyes.

But just then, his own beast tamer's voice rang in his ears: "Stand up! You haven't won yet!"

Ya Bao: "!"

"Teeth..."

Under the watchful eyes of everyone and all the pets, Ya Bao reopened his eyes, struggled, and stood up.

At this moment, the entire venue erupted in cheers.

"There are many Burning Emperors! There are many Burning Emperors!"

"Qiao Sang! Qiao Sang!"

The pet wearing the referee's badge blew the whistle to signal the end of the match and waved a green flag in the direction where Qiao Sang and Ya Bao were.

A giant virtual screen appeared out of thin air.

Below Serana's photo, the photo of the Snowy Palace has been changed from color to black and white.

"Josang has won another game!" Aurore shouted from the commentary booth. "The score is now 0-2!"

The cheers and shouts from the audience were deafening.

"Qiao Sang! Qiao Sang!"

"There are many Burning Emperors! There are many Burning Emperors!"

"This game is over, but the match isn't over yet. I'm already looking forward to the next one," Nefertis said.

"Heart."

Zhi Ai let out a heart-shaped cry, indicating that it was now extremely eager to know what the final fire skill that the Burning Emperor would unleash was.

“It resembles Yang Fire, but judging from its power, it is definitely not Yang Fire,” Nephthys analyzed.

During her explanation, Serana raised her hand, intending to take Snowdrop back into the Beast Taming Codex.

At this moment, Qiao Sang spoke up, "Wait."

Serana looked over.

The audience fell silent, everyone wanting to hear what Qiao Sang had to say.

After all, in these kinds of competitions, professional beast tamers rarely say anything other than giving commands.

“The last move Ya Bao used was Holy Fire, a skill that burns the soul. I suggest we have Xue Lei Palace treat him immediately.” As Qiao Sang spoke, she waved her hand and recalled Ya Bao into the Beast Taming Manual.

The Holy Fire can burn the soul, and not just any skill can heal it. Even the Beast Taming Manual cannot restore it. The match has only just finished the second round. If it drags on until the end of the entire match, Princess Xue Lei may suffer from a lifelong illness and be unable to participate in professional matches again.

Holy fire? Scorching the soul? Sera was stunned for a moment, then her expression changed drastically, and she cried out urgently:

"Where's the healer! Quick, a healer!"

A medical team in white coats quickly appeared out of thin air next to Xue Lei and took her away from the site.

On the commentary stage, the two commentators and guests stood there stunned, not saying a word immediately.

The audience fell silent; the scene was utterly still. (End of Chapter)
