"The Pet Show at the Lantern Garden Party and the Pet Battle Competition have officially begun!"
At the host's command, all the pets instantly sprang into action.
As Cheng Huaijin had predicted, the scene was utter chaos, with shouts of "Dodge!", "Invisibility!", and "Attack!" ringing out everywhere, making it almost unbearable.
The moment the match began, the Blazing Wolf unleashed a powerful burst of flame, forcing back several approaching pets. It steadily closed in on the Thunder Sprite, seemingly aiming to eliminate it first.
The Thunder Sprite nimbly leaped around, dodging the flames. Its small size meant it would often hide behind other pets or climb onto their backs, making it easy for the Blazing Wolf to accidentally injure other pets when trying to attack it.
When the pets are attacked, they will naturally fight back, and for a moment the Blazing Wolf couldn't spare the time to attack the Thunder Sprite.
This was a strategy that Cheng Huaijin and Lei Jingling had discussed before the competition began, to conserve their stamina and energy.
Since it's a massive battle involving 32 pets, it's safer to conserve energy and wait until most of the pets are eliminated before launching a full-scale attack.
"Bubble Frog is eliminated!"
"Candy Worm Eliminated!"
"Snowball Beast eliminated!"
...
Jolteon was almost knocked away by Snowball, and when it stepped on the ground where Snowball had passed, it slipped and fell flat on its face.
"Electric! Electric!" The Thunder Sprite stood up angrily.
"Behind us!" Cheng Huaijin promptly reminded Lei Jingling.
The Thunder Spirit didn't even turn around, but instead released a bolt of lightning that struck the Blazing Wolf's side accurately.
The Blazing Wolf howled in pain and immediately jumped away.
At the same time, Zhao Xuan's Gale Wolf darted through the pack of pets at an astonishing speed. Its speed was so fast that it always attacked before the other pets could react, kicking some of the slower-reacting pets out of bounds.
"Sweet Bear is eliminated!"
"Turkey eliminated!"
"The little stone turtle is eliminated!"
...
Cheng Huaijin observed the arena and noticed that the Gale Wolf was faster than when he first saw it.
The saying goes that speed is the ultimate weapon in martial arts. With such high agility, this beast can strike first in a duel, and it can even unleash multiple attacks. While others can leisurely make one move, this guy can already make two or three.
Quite dangerous. Cheng Huaijin silently noted down the name "Swift Wind Wolf" in his mind.
On the other hand, the Styx Jellyfish fared much better than the Thunder Sprite. It used [Mimicry] to hide as soon as it entered the arena, and then suddenly used its long tentacles to entangle some small pets, throwing them out.
"Little Star is eliminated!"
"The Rain Flower Beast is eliminated!"
"Rainbow Butterfly eliminated!"
...
Besides the pets that Cheng Huaijin was focusing on, there was another pet named "Mud Beast" that caught his attention.
The Mud Beast truly lives up to its name; it looks like a large lump of mud, with only a pair of slightly dull-looking eyes on its head.
"Aba aba." Wherever the mud beast went, the pets scattered and fled.
Its entire body was covered in mud, which dripped everywhere on the ground, making it incredibly sticky. Pets stuck in the mud could only wait for the mud beast to move away, then pull them off the ground and throw them away.
If a large pet gets stuck, it's even worse. It can't move, and the mud beast can't be pulled out, so it can only stand there and get hurt by various accidental attacks.
Oh no!
"Storm Eagle eliminated!"
"Giant ape forfeit!"
"Bibba Bo has forfeited!"
...
Flying pets don't gain much advantage in melee combat either.
Although they can occupy the high altitude for a view, the high altitude also has its limits, forcing them to lower their flight altitude and thus becoming quite restricted.
"Windbreaker Beast eliminated!"
Luo Luoyan is eliminated!
...
As the number of pets on the field dwindled, only Thunder Sprite, Blazing Wolf, Gale Wolf, Styx Jellyfish, Mud Beast, and Golden Monkey remained.
How did this golden monkey survive until now? Cheng Huaijin hadn't even noticed it before.
Suddenly, a thought flashed through Cheng Huaijin's mind, and he remembered a skill. He opened his communicator to check it.
The Eye of Confusion
[Superpower-type skill. This skill can directly interfere with the opponent's visual system, making it impossible for the opponent to accurately judge the pet's position and shape.]
The opponent will find themselves unable to see or track the pet, or even determine if the pet exists. This confusion and uncertainty will confuse and unsettle the opponent, creating opportunities for the pet to attack or escape.
This skill can be combined with other attack skills to produce excellent offensive results. This unexpected attack method often delivers a fatal blow.
The Golden Monkey's [Eye of Confusion] skill level is at least high, considering that even Cheng Huaijin, as a spectator, didn't really notice the Golden Monkey, as the skill's range is quite large.
"That's a really good skill," Cheng Huaijin thought, envious.
If only Jolteon had this skill!
