On the field, "The Sun" plummeted vertically at an extremely terrifying speed.
The four colors of poisonous fog grew increasingly dense.
"Bang bang bang!" The fire rain continued to fall.
The Nightmare Serpent did not use any defense, but instead endured the rain of fire falling on it and continued to unleash its poison gas.
The poison gas spread.
Serana is preparing to make the Nightmare Serpent abandon its defense and launch an attack... Josan watched the scene on the field, his brain working at high speed.
Given the power of Toothpick's Radiant Strike, if Nightmare Serpent doesn't dodge, it will definitely fall under this attack. However, Toothpick will also be affected by its four types of poison gas, making it impossible to fight in the next match unless it unleashes its full power...
With Ya Bao's current proficiency in Radiant Impact, it could interrupt the attack midway, but against a pet beast like the Nightmare Serpent, it would be almost impossible to remain unharmed after a head-on attack.
Is there a way for Toothbear to attack the Nightmare Serpent at close range without being poisoned by its gas...?
"That's it!" Qiao Sang suddenly realized something, her eyes lighting up as she exclaimed loudly.
"wind!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a red, hot wind carrying sparks was suddenly released from the falling "sun." As the "sun" fell, the crimson gale, like a powerful whirlwind blowing upwards, completely isolated the "sun" from the surrounding poisonous gas.
Wherever it passed, poisonous gas flew wildly and spread in all directions.
"The Burning Emperor has unleashed the Scorching Wind!" On the commentary stage, Nephthys exclaimed with delight.
Auror was equally pleasantly surprised, saying, "I didn't expect that Fen Diduo could also unleash Scorching Wind while performing Radiant Impact. Whether it's Radiant Impact or Scorching Wind, Fen Diduo's proficiency is very high!"
"Heart."
Zhi Ai called out with affection, indicating that it seemed Qiao Sang wanted the Burning Emperor to use his scorching winds to disperse the surrounding poisonous gas, which was indeed a good idea.
"Use scorching winds to disperse the poison gas... No, it won't disperse it..." Serana, who was focused on the speed and position of the "sun's" fall, suddenly spoke up: "Barrier."
"Moldy."
The Nightmare Serpent's eyes glowed purple, and the next second, a purplish-black spherical barrier enveloped its body.
Meanwhile, it continued to release various toxic gases.
Purple, black, red, and green poisonous gases quickly spread throughout the barrier.
"Bang!!!"
A deafening roar.
With a "crack," the purplish-black barrier shattered.
The "sun" crashed down on the Nightmare Serpent.
A golden light exploded out, and a vast and terrifying power instantly swept across the entire area.
Where it landed, the ground was blasted into a huge crater.
The ground shook and cracked, and poisonous gases of various colors were roared into the air by the shockwave and red hot wind.
The magma, which had turned completely purplish-black, was instantly blasted up, rising high into the sky to form a huge purplish-black water column, which then fell downwards along with the rain of fire.
"The Burning Emperor has struck the Nightmare Serpent head-on!" Nephthys exclaimed from the commentary booth.
A commotion erupted in the arena.
"Is the competition really over already?"
"I think so. The Blazing Sun Impact of the Burning Emperor looks pretty powerful, and the Nightmare Serpent probably can't withstand it."
"The Nightmare Serpent just used the Dream Eater Barrier. This barrier is a super-level skill. Even if it can't completely block the damage, it should be able to withstand most of it. The Nightmare Serpent might not necessarily fall down immediately."
"Even if the Nightmare Serpent falls, I feel that the Burning Emperor won't be able to hold on for much longer. With so much poisonous gas and toxic magma, even a pet with high defense wouldn't be able to remain unaffected."
"The scorching wind could disperse the poison gas before, but when the Radiant Impact hit the barrier, the scorching wind definitely couldn't be used. The poison gas inside the barrier must have been absorbed by the Burning Emperor."
"Didn't Qiao Sang issue the 'screen' command? Fen Di might be able to hold his breath indefinitely."
"Do you think it's possible to not breathe for so long?"
"Speaking of which, isn't the Nightmare Serpent's bad luck trait quite famous? The Burning Emperor has attacked the Nightmare Serpent so many times, won't that have an effect?"
"It's very likely, but at most, the Burning Emperor will just inhale the poison gas, unable to unleash his fierce fire, and thus unable to fight. He'll be even more unlucky."
"It feels like a one-for-one trade. Among Qiao Sang's pets, the Burning Emperor has the highest attack power. Although the Nightmare Serpent is also quite disgusting and difficult to deal with, it feels like a loss to trade it for it."
"Just watch, if Fen Di Duo also falls and can no longer fight, this match will definitely be won by Serana in the end."
"I reckon Serana thinks the same way. Trading the Nightmare Serpent for the Burning Emperor is really a good deal."
Amidst the uproar, the shockwave on the field dissipated.
The Burning Emperor stood on the body of the Nightmare Serpent.
However, the next second, Fen Diduo suddenly disappeared and reappeared in the sky, breathing heavily.
Inside the giant pit, the Nightmare Serpent's eyes were closed, and it had already fallen into a state of unconsciousness.
The scene was quiet for a brief moment, then erupted into an even louder uproar.
"My God, the Radiant Impact took down the Nightmare Serpent in one fell swoop?"
"That's normal. The Nightmare Serpent's defense is not high among royal-level pets. Moreover, it was hit by Lava Purgatory and Spark Rain before. It definitely can't withstand another attack like Radiant Impact."
"Was the Burning Emperor holding his breath the whole time? Could it hold it for that long?"
"You're overthinking it. It probably held back again later. It used the Scorching Wind skill in the middle, and that skill has to be used with the mouth. With so much poison gas, some of it must have gotten in."
"No, it's precisely because of the scorching wind that the poison gas couldn't get in. The wind dispersed the poison gas, okay?"
"All I can say is that Joe is awesome, he got the first win right away."
"Don't be too happy yet. You've forgotten how many of the pets that fought against the Nightmare Serpent before fell without being hit head-on."
"I don't think Fen Di Duo would do that. Wasn't it holding its breath the whole time before?"
On the field, the pet wearing the referee's badge came to the Nightmare Serpent and checked it.
Just as he was being examined, a sudden purple light flashed on Ya Bao's body high in the sky, followed by a painful expression, and his body rapidly turned purple at a visible speed.
The next moment, it fell from a great height.
Qiao Sang: "!!!"
"Ya Bao!" Qiao Sang couldn't help but shout.
With a "bang," Ya Bao fell into the black lava, splashing lava everywhere.
Upon seeing this, Serana's lips curled into a slight smile.
The Nightmare Serpent has been attacked so many times that it will definitely trigger the Bad Luck trait. In addition, there are four kinds of poisonous gas that are still more or less spread throughout the air and the ground is covered with highly poisonous lava, so it is not a problem for the Burning Emperor to be poisoned.
Sure enough, it got infected.
In the audience, everyone and their pets fell silent for a moment, then began to chatter amongst themselves, all marveling at how powerful the Nightmare Serpent's venom was.
Everyone originally thought that the Burning Emperor had won the victory, but unexpectedly, he still collapsed from poisoning at the last moment. Sure enough, Serana was still the same Serana, with rich combat experience, and quietly replaced one of Qiao Sang's main forces.
"The Burning Emperor fell from the sky!" Nephthys shouted from the commentary platform.
Auror remarked, "It seems that the Burning Emperor has indeed inhaled the mixed poison gas cast by the Nightmare Serpent."
"Heart."
Zhi Ai let out a heartfelt cry, indicating that when Fen Di Duo struck the Mold Nightmare Serpent, the surrounding poisonous lava also splashed onto its body.
“That’s right.” Nephthys analyzed, “Not only that, but before Fendi fell, his body flashed with purple light. This is a sign that he was affected by the bad luck trait. The bad luck trait should have increased the probability of Fendi being poisoned.”
Ya Bao… On the high platform, Qiao Sang clenched her fists tightly.
When facing Serperior, she knew that Teostra would inevitably be affected by the Bad Luck ability and poisoned, because attacking Serperior was unavoidable; at most, she could try to inhale less poison gas.
As long as the Nightmare Serpent falls and Ya Bao is still standing, she will take Ya Bao back into the Beast Taming Manual to recover.
Although I promised Ya Bao that I would let it fight to the end when it faced Serana or Lefebvre, in order to win, it is necessary to return to the Beast Taming Book to recover after each battle against a poison-type pet that can cause continuous damage, so that it can better perform in the next battle.
She had discussed this with Ya Bao, and after promising that Ya Bao would definitely participate in battles again, it agreed.
As long as Ya Bao can stand up...
As long as it can stand up...
Qiao Sang stared intently at the figure within the black magma, whose entire body had turned purplish-black.
“Xiaxia…”
Inside the VIP room, Xia Lala stood by the floor-to-ceiling window, a worried expression on her face.
On the field, after examining the Nightmare Serpent, the pet wearing the referee's badge came to Tooth Treasure's side.
Just then, Ya Bao moved his body slightly, slowly stood up, and his eyes were resolute.
"The Burning Emperor has stood up!" On the commentary stage, Nephthys exclaimed with a look of surprise.
The entire stadium erupted in cheers and screams.
"There are many Burning Emperors! There are many Burning Emperors!"
Toothbone… Qiao Sang’s eyes lit up.
"Ya Ya..." Ya Bao tried to steady himself so that he wouldn't fall down.
It still remembered the rules of the game: even if it fell after its opponent, that was still...
Too……
What else is it?
Ya Bao looked confused.
It's something I can't quite remember...
Never mind, it can't fall down, it's only been one game!
The pet wearing the referee's badge observed it for a while, then picked up the green flag and waved it in the direction where Qiao Sang and Ya Bao were.
A virtual screen appeared out of thin air, and below Serana's photo, the image of the Nightmare Serpent changed from color to black and white.
"The result of this match is in! Player Josang has taken the first point, and the score is now 0-1!" Aurore announced loudly into the microphone from the commentary booth.
The entire stadium erupted in cheers and screams.
"Qiao Sang! Qiao Sang!"
"There are many Burning Emperors! There are many Burning Emperors!"
Amidst the frantic screams, there were also some more rational voices:
"Although Fen Di Duo won this game, it probably won't be able to play the next game in its current condition."
"He's inhaled all those toxic gases—corrosion, nerve damage, stress, and memory—so he probably doesn't even know what kind of orders Qiao Sang will issue next."
"Short instructions or code words are definitely not something I can recall right now."
"If the Burning Emperor can't win, Sera will get back this point sooner or later."
"Why don't you all think it's a good chance? Doesn't the Burning Emperor have the Fierce Fire property?"
"The bad luck trait of the Nightmare Serpent has already been activated, and the Burning Emperor has been greatly affected. It's hard to say whether the Blazing Fire trait can still be activated."
"That's right. Serperior's Bad Luck ability is notoriously difficult to deal with. Serana's previous opponents have said that Serperior's Bad Luck ability is S-rank, and it will continuously bring bad luck to the opponent who hits it."
On the field, Qiao Sang raised his hand, just about to put Ya Bao back into the Beast Taming Manual.
However, at that moment, terrifying golden flames suddenly erupted from Ya Bao's body.
"The raging fire of the Burning Emperor has appeared!" Aurore exclaimed loudly from the commentary booth.
The audience fell silent for a moment, then erupted into an even louder uproar, especially from Qiao Sang's fans, who were overjoyed.
In their view, Fen Diduo was already incapacitated, but now that the raging fire has been unleashed, the situation is somewhat different.
A fierce fire... Qiao Sang's heart sank, she lowered her hand, and changed her mind.
Once the Fierce Fire trait is activated, it cannot be activated again within a day. Even if I take Ya Bao back into the Beast Taming Manual and it recovers some of its strength before going into battle, it will not be able to activate Fierce Fire again.
To maximize Ya Bao's fighting power, the only option is to let Ya Bao go straight to the next battle...
As the thought flashed through his mind, Ya Bao showed a pained expression, and the purple light on his body flickered once more.
The next second, the golden flames around it noticeably weakened.
"Teeth..."
No, this is only the first game, this is only the first game... it has to play again, it has to play again!
"Teeth!"
Ya Bao roared to the sky, and golden flames suddenly exploded around him, the heat wave sweeping across most of the venue!
Golden firelight flickered, and in the burning flames, Ya Bao's figure was illuminated with unparalleled holiness, even his eyes were dyed gold, as if he were the incarnation of the sun.
Where no one could see, the purple curse power within it vanished instantly when the golden flames erupted.
Many viewers were amazed by this scene and took out their phones to take pictures.
At the same time, Qiao Sang seemed to sense something, her heart stirred slightly, and she called out:
"Teeth."
Like the embodiment of the sun, Ya Bao nodded to his beast tamer.
The effects of the bad luck trait are really gone?! Qiao Sang was overjoyed.
A raging fire... On the other side, Serana was disappointed for 0.01 seconds.
She thought that the Nightmare Serpent's bad luck would prevent the Burning Emperor from unleashing his fierce fire.
However, Serana's disappointment soon vanished.
It's not a big deal if the Fierce Fire characteristic is activated. After changing to a different field and waiting for the referee to announce the countdown, a lot of time will be wasted. By the time the match officially starts, the Fierce Fire of the Emperor probably won't last long.
As Serana thought this, she waved her hand and recalled the Nightmare Serpent into the Beast Taming Manual.
The venue change is complete.
A pet wearing a referee's badge came onto the field and blew the whistle.
The light and shadow of the number "10" appeared on the field, constantly changing accompanied by mechanical sounds.
"9, 8, 73, 2, 1".
The light and shadow vanished. (End of Chapter)
