The next afternoon, Cheng Huaijin ended his class early and went to the wooden building to prepare for training.
The first step was to confirm the information of the pets to be deployed. During this period, the pets had all leveled up, so Cheng Huaijin focused his consciousness into the mark on his wrist.
Pet: Xue Bingna (3/5)
Stage: Infancy
Age: 1 year old
Rating: 8/10
Skills: Lightning Ball Lv. 5 (Lightning), Poison Leaf Blade Lv. 5 (Poison), Black Flame Meteor Lv. 5 (Fire), Energy Clash (Move), Water Curtain Lv. 5 (Water), Blessing Lv. 2 (Psychic), Lightning Arrow Lv. 5 (Lightning), Ice Wall Lv. 3, Chilling Wind Lv. 1, Snow Domain Lv. 1, Heal Lv. 1, Invisibility Lv. 1, Perception (Passive), Icebound Lv. 1, Ice Arrow Lv. 1.
Xue Bingna inherited the level and skills from the previous Thunder Elf, and then added many skills exclusive to Ice-type pets.
Because Xue Bingna is a high-level pet, her [Snow Domain] skill is different from the [Field Skill] of ordinary pets. Instead, it is the same as the [Time Domain] of the non-attribute high-level pet Nine-Colored Deer, which is a skill that grants absolute control over space.
That's scary.
In addition, Xue Bingna also has a healing skill that can restore the status of herself and her teammates, which is very beneficial for 2v2 team battles.
Next up is Little Ironclad Tiger.
Pet: Little Ironclad Tiger
Stage: Infancy
Age: 1 year old
Rating: 9/10
Skills: Ironclad Protection Level 5, Tiger Pounce Level 5, Ironclad Storm Level 4, Iron Will (Passive), Iron Cage Level 5, Iron Impact Level 3, Tiger Roar Level 3.
The little armored tiger is a high-level pet, so it levels up relatively slowly. It has now reached level 9, and it is believed that it will evolve soon, at which time it will also be a very strong combat force.
Pet: Wooden Dragon
Stage: Adolescence
Age: 1 year old
Level: 16/?
Skills: Energy Devour Level 8, Energy Conversion Level 8, Touch of Life Level 6, Seed of Life Level 10, Dragon's Breath Level 10, Nature's Guardian Level 10, Nature's Wrath Level 5, Life Link Level 3, Healing Green Light Level 5, Bark Armor Level 12, Life Domain Level 2, Healing Rain Level 10
The Wood Dragon is a super-tier pet with a skill level cap of 30. Due to receiving energy from dragon blood and dragon scales, the Wood Dragon's level and skills have been greatly enhanced.
A rapid increase in strength comes at a price... The wooden dragon is only awake for one or two hours a day now, spending the rest of its time sleeping and digesting energy within Cheng Huaijin's wrist mark.
Currently, Cheng Huaijin can only field Xue Bingna and Little Ironclad Tiger. Fortunately, these two are strong enough, otherwise it would be insufficient.
It's time to consider contracting new pets; at least we should have three, which would give us more assurance in competitions.
Cheng Huaijin was testing Xue Bingna's new skills when there was a knock on the training room door, and Victoria's face appeared in the image at the door.
"I'm not late, am I?" Victoria was wearing the sports uniform of Yaotian High School. She looked very cool in the dark green uniform, and the matching headband held back her messy hair, making her look both lazy and energetic.
Victoria was also sizing up Cheng Huaijin.
The black-haired girl in front of me had her hair braided into a thick, long braid, and a snow-white fluffy ball sat on her head. Both the girl and the beast had bright, clear eyes, which made people feel refreshed.
Both girls are quite tall, especially Cheng Huaijin, who broke the 175cm mark a couple of days ago. Given that she is only 14 years old, Fang Juexia cursed fiercely that Cheng Huaijin would grow to 3 meters.
"No, I arrived earlier," Cheng Huaijin said with a smile.
Victoria, a level four Beastmaster, has five pet beasts: Thunder Eagle, Shadow Leopard, Windbreaker Wolf Pack, Sandstorm Lizard, and Fiery Serpent.
It includes pets of the Thunder, Dark, Wind, Earth, and Fire types, plus Cheng Huaijin's Ice-type Xue Bingna and Gold-type Little Ironclad Tiger, and surprisingly, there are no pets with the same attribute.
Isn't that a coincidence?
After discussing with Zeng Zhaoying, the two decided that in the two-person battle, Cheng Huaijin would fight Little Ironclad Tiger and Victoria would fight Thunder Eagle.
The combination of metal and lightning increases the skill's attack range, attack speed, and attack power. Furthermore, having one character run on the ground and the other fly in the air also expands the control area.
"What kind of pet do you plan to use in single-player battles?" Cheng Huaijin asked casually.
"I haven't decided yet. We'll see when the time comes," Victoria said nonchalantly.
She ripped off the bandage on her right hand, took out a new roll of bandage from her backpack, and carefully wrapped it around her hand.
After wrapping it up, she punched the air.
Cheng Huaijin actually felt the force of the punch.
Victoria chuckled: "Actually, I used to want to be a boxer. Now, I want to be an adventurer!"
"adventurer?"
Victoria said with a look of longing, "That's right! After I graduate, I'm going to travel with my pets and go around the stars!"
"Not a professional fighter?" Cheng Huaijin asked, genuinely curious. Being a professional fighter was arguably one of the best professions in the Beast Taming world—high pay and respectable. Didn't Victoria like that?
"Fighting is quite fun. But the matches are a bit boring, with so many rules and regulations..." Victoria gestured exaggeratedly, "Adventure is much more exciting!"
"Oh, right! You're the champion of the Seya Empire's arena tournament, aren't you!" she suddenly exclaimed excitedly. "The arena tournament has few rules, so you must have had a lot of fun! It's a pity Teacher Zeng wouldn't let me go; she always says I lack experience..."
Cheng Huaijin blinked, thinking to herself that this was truly a passionate young woman.
Victoria, acting like a little adult, patted Cheng Huaijin's arm: "A skinny little girl like you wouldn't understand the thrill of punches landing on your skin..."
She paused for a moment, then pinched Cheng Huaijin's arm: "You actually have muscles? Come on! Let's have a fight!"
Cheng Huaijin: Thanks for the invitation, I'm off.
Inside the Seid Villa.
Sky City, an affluent residential community suspended in the air.
Sed is nominally a child of the long-lost Ross family, but in reality he is just an illegitimate child of a collateral branch. Because all the children of the collateral branch had died, Sed was brought back.
Sed usually lives in his own villa and does not associate with the Sed family. He has only been to the main house once, and he has never even met Astaria Rose.
In the dead of night, everything fell asleep.
A flying robot quietly sneaked into the villa, its red light flashing and disappearing in an instant.
No one noticed.
