"Why shouldn't it be allowed? Being able to use magical artifacts is also a kind of strength of magical beasts."
Some people expressed their support, feeling that this magical beast named Gigika Sand Bucket opened up new ideas for them in training magical beasts. "If you're so capable, why don't you train magical beasts using magical artifacts too?"
"Of course not! Beast battles are meant to determine the strength and bloodline of magical beasts. If magical artifacts are used, can it still be called a beast battle? This is not only unfair to other magical beasts, but it also goes against the original purpose of beast battles."
Most people do not support it.
And the sound kept getting louder.
"Why are you allowed to use magical artifacts?"
"Under normal circumstances, who has ever seen other magical beasts use magical artifacts?"
"Either prove your worth with your skills, or get out of here! I feel indignant for those monsters who were unfairly eliminated."
...
The raccoon's reputation, which had just improved slightly after defeating the scaled elephant, vanished in an instant. As the criticism grew louder, almost everyone believed that the raccoon had gotten to his current position through connections. This situation caught the attention of the Cloud Tower, and the higher-ups even held discussions overnight, deciding to temporarily add a rule that magical beasts could not use magical artifacts in the beast fighting arena.
"What do you mean? This is clearly bullying!"
Upon hearing the news from outside, Niu Niu, who had the most fiery temper, slammed his fist on the table and stood up.
"Calm down, they are the organizers, there's nothing we can do if they want to do this."
The eldest brother frowned and looked at the little raccoon, "Xitong, we can't use magic tools and talismans like the Hun Tian Bracelet and the Wu Xiang Brush tomorrow. Can you handle it?"
There is no doubt that the finest barrel is the strongest among all of them and among all the beasts.
However, in their continuous observation, the raccoon had always used these magical artifacts as its primary means of attack. In particular, the talismans on the thin barrel were equivalent to weapons and cultivation techniques in the hands of martial arts practitioners.
Which major competition would prohibit martial arts practitioners from using their techniques and weapons?
It is indeed too much to bully others.
If the small barrel isn't confident of winning against the last monster, then it should forfeit.
The eldest brother always thinks more deeply than others when it comes to such important matters. "If we can't get the Dragon Cloud Root in the competition, we can still obtain it through other means, or find other wood-type treasures. If you get injured, Xitong, our Xianlong Peak will be short of another combatant."
It's not just about combat strength; the vast network of connections behind Xi Tong is something even Dean Yan can't match.
"It's okay, I'll give it a try."
Having come this far, with Long Yungen so close at hand, how could we possibly just give up?
Jia Xitong didn't give a definitive answer, only saying that she would try her best.
If you can beat it, beat it; if you can't, run away.
For a cultivator at the mid-stage of the Rune King realm, running away might be embarrassing, but it could be very useful.
Final round
"Today is the final of the 208th Beast Fighting Tournament. The two remaining finalists are the magical beast Youlong, who holds an eight-game winning streak. I believe everyone is familiar with it. Youlong is a magical beast with dragon blood, and it is very powerful. Since participating in the Beast Fighting Tournament, it has never fallen from the first place position."
Most viewers believed that Youlong would once again win the beast fighting competition.
The atmosphere on stage was heating up.
Someone began introducing the two monsters that were about to appear.
"The other finalist is the dark horse of this year's Beast Fighting Tournament, Gigika Sandbaron! From an inconspicuous Rank 8 Beast to now standing on this stage, this little Beast Gigika Sandbaron has entered the finals in an unexpected way."
Gigika Sandbar is clever and resourceful, using magical artifacts and talismans to attack her enemies. However, this method of attack has drawn criticism from thugs from all over the world. Will Gigika Sandbar be able to defeat the undefeated Youlong, despite being restricted from using magical artifacts and talismans?
"Come on, place your bets!"
The man gave a long and enthusiastic introduction, but in reality, it was all to lure people over quickly: "Gigi Sand Bucket vs. Swimming Dragon, odds of 500:2."
Isn't all that hard work and shouting just for money?
If the raccoon wins, the payout is 500 times; if the dragon wins, the payout is doubled...
Such a disparate payout ratio is enough to show how pessimistic people are about Gigika Sand Bucket.
These beast-fighting matches, betting in advance, are something my senior brothers are very familiar with!
Back when Qing Shuangfeng and his fellow disciples first made a fortune, it was at the Holy Capital Academy, during Junior Brother Yan's competition.
Everyone got rich back then, except for the eldest brother.
Because the senior brother was too cautious, his trust in junior brother Yan was only worth ten coins.
But now the opportunity has come; youth is wasted if you don't go crazy.
Despite being eighty years old, the eldest disciple felt very young. He rushed to the betting area and bought ten mid-grade spirit stones worth of Jijika Shatong Sheng.
The other bettors were completely stunned when they saw such a large sum of money.
However, when they saw who placed the bet, they were surprised to find that the martial arts practitioners in Gigi Kasha's team were really rich. In order to boost the morale of their team, they threw away ten mid-grade spirit stones without hesitation.
Occasionally, one or two monks who wanted to snag a bargain would also buy Jijika Shatong Sheng.
Then these people were ridiculed.
"Does anyone really think that bucket will win?"
"What's the difference between having this thought and throwing a spirit stone into the water?"
...
Basically, nobody is optimistic about the raccoon.
##
A lot of preparation has been done for the final, and now it's finally time for the real thing to begin.
"You are not allowed to use magical artifacts or talismans." Before going on stage, the referees repeatedly warned the raccoon.
After speaking, the referee glanced at the sun.
He probably felt that this round of the competition wouldn't last long and could end early.
"How scary, we're out of weapons."
The little raccoon Chacha gave a sarcastic remark, then spread its little wings and fluttered towards the stage.
The final arena was ten times larger than a regular arena.
This was specially designed for beast fighting.
The surrounding area offers a wide and unobstructed view, allowing spectators to enjoy an unparalleled experience. The stones used in the arena were transported from afar and are very precious, capable of withstanding attacks from magical beasts possessing the strength of a peak Martial King.
But clearly, compared to this arena, the raccoon was like a sesame seed on a large pancake. Amidst the cheers of the crowd, a monster over five meters long, resembling a lizard with a pair of black fleshy wings on its back, emerged from below the stage.
It approached, reeking of blood, its rough skin covered in scratches and healed wounds. Its crocodile-like eyes stared at Jia Xitong on the stage, as if it would pounce at its master's command.
The cheers and excitement below were deafening.
"Swimming Dragon!"
"My God, it's gotten even bigger!"
"As expected of the King of Monsters worth 10,000 high-grade spirit stones, my legs went weak when I saw it!"
"When will I be able to have a magical beast like that?!"
...
