The skeleton that emerged from the shadows attracted everyone's attention, even Fang Xuyang was stunned.
The pets in front of them are not unfamiliar. Every high school student has seen them in textbook illustrations, and they can occasionally be seen in daily life.
For example, in undead movies, there are skeleton soldiers that appear in large numbers, and there are NPCs in hardcore haunted houses.
But few... or no one has ever thought of seeing them on the Beast Taming battlefield.
As a second-generation high school student with excellent grades, he regards Mu Shuyue, his biggest rival, as a hidden trump card...
Card soldier?
The audience watching the live broadcast obviously had the same doubt as him. A large number of "..." flashed across the barrage, almost covering up Allen in the camera.
"Fuck, it really is a little skeleton?..."
"The evolved little skeleton, how come it's not a little skeleton?"
"I even thought that there would be cubs of the imperial race fantasy race..."
"But I never thought it would really be a little skeleton, hahahaha..."
"How can a card soldier be better than a little skeleton?"
"Are these bones just food for Thunder Lion?"
"You're here for a snack, right?"
“…”
"But this card soldier looks pretty handsome..."
"I think so too. Look at the upright posture, the flames in the eyes, and the cape..."
"Is that the death mist of the undead pet?"
"No matter how handsome he is, he is still a card player. This is not a movie..."
"But this toothy soldier will definitely be an excellent extra in a movie, hahaha..."
“…”
After a brief moment of stunned silence, Fang Xuyang came to his senses and commanded the Thunder Lion to attack.
No matter what kind of pet Mu Liuyue sends out, he will definitely be the winner of this battle!
"Thunder Lion, Thunder Field!"
Following the Beastmaster's command, the Thunder Lion let out a long roar, and the entire battle space was covered with a layer of shining electric light.
Golden arcs of electricity surged, the Thunder Lion's mane fluttered, a dazzling crystal flashed in front of its chest, a bolt of thunder fell from the sky, and its figure in the lightning was like the god of thunder descending from the sky.
Mu Chuyue's gaze fell on the shining crystal.
This is the effect of Fang Xuyang and his father Fang Chuan's legendary beast taming talent [Wind and Thunder Monarch]. Combined with thunder crystals of corresponding levels, it can allow the pet to perform high-level domain skills in advance.
[Thunder Field] is like the predecessor of [Thunder·Emperor's Domain]. It can shift the battle space to the thunder attribute, greatly increasing the energy value of thunder pets and the power of thunder skills, and will directly suppress the water attribute that is restrained by the thunder.
The moist electric arcs in the forest before, as well as the wild supernatural creatures that were driven over, were all effects of the thunder field.
In the past, when Eren was a little skeleton, he might not be able to deal with domain skills, but now...
Mu Huiyue smiled slightly. This was Eren's first official battle after his evolution. Of course, he would not lose to the guy who came to him to cause trouble.
"Eren, deterrence!"
The tall and upright skeleton raised its head, and black mist surged around it.
An invisible energy wave instantly spread out with him as the center and hit the expanding thunder field directly.
The leaping electric arc seemed to have been paused, stopped in place by an invisible force, and then quickly retreated backwards and retracted into the crystal on the Thunder Lion's chest.
The Thunder Lion still maintained its majestic howling posture, but without the cool background created by the Thunder Field, it looked a little funny standing on the battlefield full of shadows and fallen leaves.
Fang Xuyang showed an expression of disbelief, and equally unbelievable was the exploding live broadcast barrage.
The previous “…” was now replaced by a screen full of “???”, with countless question marks covering the live broadcast screen.
"??? What was it that knocked the Thunder Field back?"
"Am I reading this correctly? That's a deterrent?"
"The Pai Ya Bing used intimidation?"
"That means..."
"The monarch race's card tooth soldiers???"
"Is it the card tooth soldier of the monarch race???"
"They won't be the monarch race's card tooth soldiers, right?"
Countless similar comments with lots of question marks flooded the battle screen in the live broadcast room like a wave.
Even if Mu Chuyue summoned the Fighting Wolf of the Monarch Race, or even the Sun Flame Wolf of the Emperor Race, people would not be so surprised.
After all, with Mu Chuanqi's background here, breeding an evolved version of the higher-level Little Cloud Dog in advance can be considered an extraordinary talent at best.
But the card-toothed soldiers of the monarch race?
"Are you sure this is a Pai Ya Soldier, not some new race like the Lich King?"
"It's so cool. Seeing a scary skeleton, haha..."
"Who can tell me that I am not dreaming, there are really monarch race card tooth soldiers in the world? ”
"Does Fang Xuyang look like he's dreaming?"
"Indeed, hahahaha..."
“…”
Domain skills are essentially an extension of the pet's own energy. The deterrence of the monarch race is considered the entry level, and the real form is the imperial domain of the emperor race.
The thunder field created by the warrior race with the help of the beastmaster's talent is of course no match for the deterrence of the real monarch race.
After fighting back to the Jinglei Arena, Mu Liuyue took advantage of the victory to pursue the opponent, and the tall skeleton instantly disappeared into the shadows.
"Netherworld Fire."
The Pai Ya soldier emerged from the shadows, came to the side of the Thunder Lion, and snapped his slender fingers.
The dark blue flames instantly enveloped the Thunder Lion, and the mental damage caused it to scream miserably.
"Thunder Lion...!"
Fang Xuyang came to his senses and realized that the burning of the Nether Fire could not be extinguished in a physical sense. If he didn't think of a way, the Thunder Lion would continue to be hurt.
"Lightning Charge!" he shouted quickly.
A surge of electricity was set off around the Thunder Lion, and under the electromagnetic acceleration, its figure was as fast as lightning and it instantly rushed towards the Pai Ya Bing.
However, Ellen had already dived into the shadows the moment the electrical changes occurred around him.
The Thunder Lion's attack failed, and it stopped and took two steps forward. Its body was filled with bouncing arcs of electricity, and the dark blue flames had been completely melted away.
Although the Lightning Charge failed to hit Eren, it allowed the Thunder Lion to break free from the difficult-to-resolve Netherfire.
Fang Xuyang does have some tactics in using attack skills to maintain defense, unlike most of his peers who are still stuck in using attribute restraint skills to bombard each other.
"Use thunder!"
Seeing that the Thunder Lion had recovered, Fang Xuyang took advantage of the situation to chase it, and several thunders fell along with his commands.
The Thunder Lion used its skills very quickly, with lightning falling in layers, but none of them could hit the Pai Ya soldiers wandering in the shadows.
In the battle environment filled with shadows in the forest, Eren was fully confident that no skill would hit him.
"Let's have another Netherworld Fire!" said Mu Liuyue.
The Pai Ya soldier followed the shadow to the side of the Thunder Lion and was about to break away from the shadow, but Fang Xuyang's order came faster than his.
"Thunder Lion, use Thunder on yourself!"
“Woooooooooooooooo!”
Without any hesitation, the thunder fell on Thunder Lion himself.
Accompanied by a loud crackling sound, strong electric light illuminated the area around the Thunder Lion. The shadows were dispersed in the strong light. The card soldiers had no place to stand and could only turn to emerge from the shadows outside the strong light.
"It works...!" Fang Xuyang clenched his fists and applauded his own brilliant judgment.
Although the skill of sneaking into the shadow is troublesome, as long as there is no shadow, the card soldier will naturally not be able to get close to the Thunder Lion.
The lightning faded, and the Thunder Lion on the battlefield breathed softly, its sharp eyes fixed on the Pai Ya Bing who had once again disappeared into the shadows.
Thunder is a C-level thunder attack skill. The Thunder Lion, which has the characteristics of lightning adaptation, can resist most of the damage caused by thunder. It can rely on this move to defend against the sneaky raids of the Pai Ya Soldiers.
"Charge with lightning!" Fang Xuyang said.
The Thunder Lion turned into a stream of golden light, rushing towards the card soldiers with sparks and lightning.
The light dispelled the accompanying shadows, and the tall skeleton cast a shadow, turned on the spot, and once again disappeared into another tiny shadow under the fallen leaves.
Ellen's condition did not fluctuate at all because of the opponent's attack. In Ellen's eyes, Thunder Lion's signature Lightning Charge was not as skillful and difficult as Puppy's increasingly improved Shadow Step and Sneak Attack.
The shadows spread again, and another bolt of lightning struck the Thunder Lion itself, dispelling the possibility of the Opening Tooth Soldier getting close to it.
"This defensive method that hurts yourself a lot..." Mu Liuyue sighed softly in her heart.
It would be fine if this was the cost of finding an opportunity to counterattack, but the reality was that Thunder Lion had exhausted all his strength just to defend against the sudden attack from the shadows.
Fang Xuyang is indeed good at using tactics, but he cannot be considered a beastmaster who cares about his pets.
What's more, Eren certainly has more than just shadow stealth as a means of surprise attack.
"Eren, Soul Tremor."
The tooth soldier emerged from the shadows, opened his jaws, and attacked the Thunder Lion with a silent tremor, which also had some deterrent effect.
The sudden mental blow froze the Thunder Lion in place, unable to even lift its claws.
"Thunder Lion!" Fang Xuyang's mind quickly scanned the skills of the Thunder Lion, but he couldn't find any one that could be used at this time.
"Bone spur attack!" Mu Liuyue did not give them a chance to hesitate.
The tall and straight skeleton stood in an elegant T-step, with a slender white bone in its hand. Layers of black liquid covered it, giving the bone a sharp metallic color.
That is the effect of the C-rank steel-type strengthening skill, Calcification.
Ellen held the bone in one hand, raising it horizontally in front of his eyes, as if he was holding a sharp rapier.
The next second, his figure flashed in front of the Thunder Lion and pierced the opponent's abdomen.
Bone spur attack hits!
The Thunder Lion screamed and fell to the ground, and a large amount of light golden blood spread out. This bone spur attack directly hit the vital point, and it had no time to react.
"Thunder Lion, stand up!" There was a hint of panic in Fang Xuyang's voice.
He thought he was fully prepared before launching this battle, but who would have thought that his Thunder Lion would be completely at a disadvantage.
If he continues like this, he will lose to Mu Shuyue...
"Stand up!" Fang Xuyang roared, with a flash of lightning in his eyes.
The crystal on the Thunder Lion's chest burst out with brilliant light. The electric arc sealed the wound on its abdomen and even supported the collapsed part of its body. It tried hard to stand up using its front paws.
Beast Taming Talent: Wind and Thunder Monarch!
Golden arcs of electricity popped out of the Thunder Lion's eyes, and its mane swelled, filled with a large number of crackling arcs. Its whole body emanated scorching electric light, as if it was burning its remaining strength.
"Thunder!"
“Woooooo!——”
The Thunder Lion raised its head and howled loudly. Countless thunders struck the ground, almost illuminating the entire battle space.
There was no need for Mu Huoyue to give any orders, as Eren had already disappeared into the shadows.
If a large-scale lightning strike occurred in a regular battle, it might force Eren to lose his Shadow Escape area in an instant.
But in this wild secret forest, even a light-type pet cannot drive away all the shadows, and Thunder Lion's efforts are doomed to be in vain.
After the thunder waterfall, only scorched and dry leaves were left in the battle area. The Pai Ya Bing emerged from the shadows at the edge and appeared in front of the opponent unscathed.
The tall skeleton seemed like the god of death returning from hell. No matter what tactics were used, it was impossible to defeat it.
"It seems that the failures you experienced in the past did not make you see yourself clearly." Mu Yuyue shook her head and said, "The difference between outdoor battles and official battles... and the state of the pet."
After using the thunder, the Thunder Lion was already on the verge of collapse, but it still held on and refused to disobey the Beastmaster's orders.
Long before the battle began, Mu Huiyue discovered that Thunder Lion's condition was not as good as it looked.
Judging from the change in points, Fang Xuyang and the Thunder Lion have been fighting each other since entering the secret realm. His beast taming talent has no effect of restoring physical strength, and the Thunder Lion has been holding on.
Facing the Pai Ya soldiers with shadow stealth capabilities, the Thunder Lion is not without the ability to fight.
Its lightning speed under electromagnetic acceleration is its greatest weapon. As long as it pays close attention to the shadows around it, the Thunder Lion can rely on its own speed to avoid most attacks.
It’s a pity that its beastmaster was so focused on winning that he didn’t even notice this small chance of victory on the battlefield.
Hearing Mu Chuyue's words, Fang Xuyang's pupils constricted and he even revealed a look of fear.
He was afraid of losing to his Mu Huoyue, just like the countless times he had witnessed her defeat him in the past.
"End this battle, Eren." Mu Huoyue no longer looked at him.
“Click.”
The card soldier stood gracefully in place, stretched out his slender finger bones, and snapped his fingers.
The dark blue flames swept up and enveloped the body of the Thunder Lion.
It howled in pain, and its huge body fell to the ground with a loud bang.
A winged recording terminal flew over, and after confirming Thunder Lion's status, the battle result popped up on the projection frame.
Thunder Lion 0:1 Pai Ya Bing.
In this battle, Mu Shuyue wins!
