Cheng Huaijin shouted, "Electromagnetic shield! Electromagnetic shield!"
The Thunder Elf stared blankly at the wall before it.
Where is this place? Where is Cheng Huaijin? Where are its companions?
When Cheng Huaijin saw the bewildered look in the Thunder Spirit's eyes on the battle stage, he knew that the guy had been hit by Ghostface Smoke's mental attack!
You need to get extra training when you get back! Your reactions are so slow!
In a battle between masters, victory or defeat can be decided in 0.1 seconds.
Scott grinned wickedly: "Let me show you, you country bumpkin."
Cheng Huaijin had excellent hearing; after all, she was the owner of the dragon egg and the little armored tiger, and her physical abilities were top-notch. She naturally heard Scott's provocative words and pointed to herself: "Me?"
Scott smirked and said in a particularly pretentious tone, "Smoke, soul, possession."
The "Smoke Spirit Possession" skill allows the Ghostly Smoke to possess an opponent, controlling their behavior and rendering them unable to fight.
This skill is considered Ghostface's signature move, defeating countless pet beasts.
Cheng Huaijin wasn't flustered. She had urgently calculated several battle simulations yesterday and discussed them with Lei Jingling, explaining what to do if they encountered the corresponding situations.
The way pets fight in this world is morbid; it's basically a one-man show by the Beastmaster, with the pet simply following suit. Very few pets can break free of their Beastmaster and fight independently on the battlefield (except for wild combat). However, Cheng Huaijin believes that the Beastmaster should play a supporting and guiding role, not a dominant one. After all, it's the pet, not the Beastmaster, that's on the battlefield.
So almost from the very beginning, Cheng Huaijin was consciously cultivating her pets' fighting spirit. She would try to play the role of a coach before each battle, striving to let her pets perform better on the battlefield.
Now is the time to evaluate the coaches' results.
The reason why Ghostface Smoke's [Heavy Smoke] and [Smoke Soul Possession] are so powerful is that once a pet is affected, it will fall into an illusion and have its mind controlled, leaving the beast tamer powerless to do anything about it.
But Thunder Spirit is different; Cheng Huaijin had already told it that long ago.
What if you can't see me during a match?
-The opponent used a despicable mental attack! The kind-hearted Thunder Spirit has fallen for it! Use Water Curtain Heaven and wait for the opponent to reveal their true colors!
"What if I do something strange during the match that I wouldn't normally do? Should I believe you?"
"Electricity!"
- Strangely, it's a fake Huaijin! The fake Huaijin is about to attack!
"If my instructions during a duel contradict your judgment, what will you do?"
"electricity!"
...Trust Cheng Huaijin!
"What if you've been hit by a psychological attack? Wouldn't that give your opponent the upper hand?"
"Electricity!"
No way! I, Ben Lei, can definitely tell the difference! The difference between the real Huai Jin and the fake Huai Jin is huge!
...
On the battlefield, the Thunder Spirit was trapped by smoke.
The area affected by thunderstorms gradually weakened and eventually disappeared.
The two pet beasts on the battlefield maintained an eerie balance in a relatively still state.
The Thunder Sprite remained suspended in the air, motionless except for flapping its wings.
Ghost-faced Smoke, too, floated in the air, facing Thunder Sprite, and remained motionless.
"What's going on?" Scott frowned. "Ghost Smoke! Use Ground Shock!"
Ghost Face remained motionless.
The chat on the "I Love Beast Taming" live streaming platform exploded.
[Wow! This is a countermeasure!]
What's going on? Why isn't it moving? Am I stuck?
[Let me explain what this means.]
[What countermeasures? I don't understand. lol]
The countermeasure means that the Thunder Spirit is utterly defeating the Ghost-Faced Smoke in the illusion.
[Huh?] [Huh?] [Huh?]
...
Guan Shanyue felt a headache coming on when he saw the screen full of "Huh?", as if he was facing a group of brainless, mentally challenged students, and his professional habit was about to flare up.
Cheng Huaijin is really something. He said he was going to see what it was like, but he ended up showing his face to the entire intergalactic world.
A level one beast tamer who defeated a max-level beast tamer, and the 13-year-old champion of the Saiyan Empire's arena, Cheng Huaijin may truly be the future star of China, no, perhaps even the future star of Earth, or even the Milky Way.
At this moment, Cheng Huaijin was unaware of Coach Guan's high praise for her; she was simply focused on the situation on the battlefield.
His fingers tapped rhythmically on the railing, then suddenly stopped.
Ghost-Faced Smoke spat out a mouthful of blood, the blue light in his eyes went out, and he fell to the ground, motionless.
The Thunder Sprite wasn't much better off; it fell to the ground with a thud, its limp body only showing slight rises and falls in its small chest, indicating that it was still alive.
The entire audience erupted in uproar.
What happened?
"It's over? I didn't see anything!"
"Who won? Is Ghost Face Smoke dead?"
"Damn it, I bet on Ghost Face Cigarettes!"
"What's your hurry? Have you forgotten that Ghost-Faced Smoke also has a real body?"
...
The Ghost-Faced Smoke creatures originate from the bottomless mines of the Seia Empire, their appearance consisting of smoke and mist. Their true forms only reveal themselves as a last resort. Exposure of their true forms inflicts severe damage; generally, only Ghost-Faced Smoke creatures in the wild will expose themselves for survival. Once exposed, they can unleash a powerful attack. If they kill an enemy, they can absorb energy from the enemy's body; if they fail, they die.
“According to the rules, Ghostface Smoke lost its fighting ability first, so Thunder Elf won,” Cheng Huaijin said to Scott.
Scott's eyes were red with anger. He couldn't bear to lose to a child like this, nor could he bear to see his dream of a 16-match winning streak shattered. Today was supposed to be his grand spectacle, the perfect opening act for his intergalactic conquest!
