Beast Taming: Starting From Zero
-
Chapter 484: Is this the end?!
```
The electric-type high-level skill, "Electric Field", turns the surrounding area into an electric field for a certain period, where thunder and lightning descend intermittently and also enhance the power of electric-type skills... Qiao Sang felt a jolt in his heart.
To start with such a high-energy-consuming move indicated that the opponent wanted to finish the battle quickly. During the presence of the Electric Field, Xiao Xunbao would find it difficult to use invisibility to approach.
"Xun!"
Xiao Xunbao appeared in an area of the field not affected by the lightning, patted its chest with its paw, displaying an "I was scared to death" expression.
So scary, it almost got struck!
The moment Xiao Xunbao appeared, Paléi Lulu's sharp gaze immediately locked onto it.
The next second, it turned into a yellow streak of lightning and charged ferociously.
Paléi Lulu's speed was incredibly fast, reaching Xiao Xunbao in the blink of an eye.
Xiao Xunbao was startled again and used Teleportation in a frantic rush to dodge the head-on attack.
However, before Teleportation, the effect of the electric arc from Paléi Lulu still reached Xiao Xunbao, causing a numbing sensation.
When Xiao Xunbao reappeared, its rigid body and the faint electric arc on it made Tang Yi's eyes light up.
What a chance! Tang Yi quickly said,
"Ten thousand volts!"
"Lulu!"
Paléi Lulu cried out, and the electric arcs on its body suddenly spread and gathered into a yellow bolt of lightning that slashed fiercely towards Xiao Xunbao's direction.
"Xun!"
Xiao Xunbao's eyes widened as the lightning was already right before its eyes.
Just when everyone thought that the Spectral-type Pet Beast was about to be hit, Xiao Xunbao's figure turned into nothingness and dissipated.
A decoy... Tang Yi looked up at the Spectral-type Pet Beast that had appeared in another location.
The brief skirmish elicited loud cheers from the audience.
Mostly, the cheers this time were from the Zhongkong Region spectators.
"Well done! I knew Tang Yi could do it!"
"Paléi Lulu has a static electricity feature; it doesn't need to directly attack the Spectral-type Pet Beast. As long as it gets near, there's a chance to paralyze it."
"This match is ours! The Spectral-type Pet Beast might be strong, but it has low defense. Once Paléi Lulu gets a chance to attack, the Spectral-type Pet Beast is bound to lose!"
"Truly worthy of being the last champion. Qiao Sang's rhythm is always in her favor when she's competing, but this time the tempo of the battle is clearly with Tang Yi!"
"Have you forgotten how Tang Yi lost the last match?"
"That can't be helped, Tang Bupa was only at the mid-level."
The previously silent spectators of the Zhongkong Region, like someone who turned from introverted to extroverted in an instant, started to talk a lot more.
Paléi Lulu's static electricity, as long as it gets close even without contact, could still have a chance to paralyze... The effect of the Electric Field was still active, and it significantly boosted Paléi Lulu's speed and attack power. Since Xiao Xunbao couldn't just appear within the range of the Electric Field, this would likely lead to it being attacked soon... Qiao Sang's mind raced with various thoughts, trying to come up with a solution to control Paléi Lulu.
Before she could think of a decent plan, Paléi Lulu had already started a new wave of attacks.
"Lulu!"
Paléi Lulu let out a loud cry. Instantly, bolts of lightning, like serpents, flashed and struck toward the areas not covered by the Electric Field.
To seek victory in danger, one must take the initiative to attack! In an instant, Qiao Sang made a decision.
The match couldn't drag on any longer!
"Get close to it!" Qiao Sang shouted.
All this time, she had been too afraid of Xiao Xunbao getting hit, but in fact, Xiao Xunbao was already a High-Level Pet Beast. As long as it wasn't hit head-on by a strong move, how could it lose its fighting ability that easily!
"Xun!"
Her Beast Tamer's words ringing in its ears, Xiao Xunbao understood the intention instantly through their connection. It glanced at the distant opponent and the crackling electric arcs around it. With gritted teeth, it vanished from its spot.
Just as Paléi Lulu was about to continue unleashing lightning outside the Electric Field, it suddenly sensed danger and looked up sharply.
But it was already too late.
Several shadows like black silk crazily and intensely twined around it.
"Lulu!"
Paléi Lulu found its wings and body bound tightly together in an instant.
"Xun Xun!"
```
An electric arc appeared out of nowhere and struck down on Xiao Xunbao, who was in the midst of casting Shadow Control.
Xiao Xunbao, using a three-dimensional shadow to pull the massive Paléi Lulu, was already struggling. With that strike, it immediately lost its strength, and along with Paléi Lulu, began to plummet downward.
The Spectral-type Pet unexpectedly teleported into the range of the electrical field… Tang Yi's heart chilled.
But the next second, seeing the Spectral-type Pet struck by lightning, he breathed a sigh of relief.
However… even after being struck, it still managed to maintain Shadow Control… Tang Yi's expression immediately turned to one of astonishment, quite surprised.
Although Spectral-type Pet Beasts are known for their unpredictable and ghostly nature, their fragility is also well-known. Being hit by a bolt of lightning, not only a Spectral-type Pet Beast but any Pet Beast with thicker skin would have unstable energy, which should cause the Skill they are casting to dissipate.
"Hundred Thousand Volts!" In his astonishment, Tang Yi did not forget to issue an order.
"Papa!"
Paléi Lulu's body was bound, but the energy inside it could still circulate; a violent bolt of lightning suddenly coursed out from its body toward the falling Xiao Xunbao above it!
Just as that swift bolt of lightning approached, Xiao Xunbao vanished.
At the same time, the several shadows binding Paléi Lulu also disappeared.
Paléi Lulu took the opportunity to flap its wings and stabilize its form.
But just as it steadied itself, Xiao Xunbao, with eyes glowing blue, appeared about ten centimeters in front of it.
Although the level of Paléi Lulu's static electricity trait wasn't known, judging from its past competitions, ten centimeters was definitely a safe distance… Qiao Sang watched the space between Xiao Xunbao and Paléi Lulu, feeling a sense of relief.
She had talked about the safe distance from Paléi Lulu before the match, and Xiao Xunbao always remembered it, mastering the distance exceedingly well.
Mystique Level hypnotism, Paléi Lulu shouldn't be able to withstand it…
"Papa…"
Paléi Lulu slowly closed its eyes.
At the same time, the electric field disappeared, returning to calm.
Seeing this scene, all the spectators from the Zhongkong Region tensed up, while the spectators from the Yuhua Region clenched their fists in excitement.
As for spectators from other regions, each one of them watched the arena with shining eyes, intently focused.
Though their expressions varied, at this moment, silence unified them, and their thoughts were surprisingly similar: Is this the end?!
"Fools!" In the contestants' area, a middle-aged man over fifty had an extremely ugly expression on his face.
If Tang Yi had chosen to evolve Paléi Lulu, how could it possibly lose to Qiao Sang!
"Tang Bupa, wake up!" Tang Yi desperately shouted on the field, not giving up yet.
It was all his fault, all because his reaction was too slow and his awareness was not comprehensive enough, dragging the team down!
Paléi Lulu had fought so hard!
It was all his fault!
"Tang Bupa, wake up…" The voice of his own Beast Tamer faintly reached Paléi Lulu's ears.
"Papa…"
Paléi Lulu's mind was foggy as it wanted to open its eyes to continue the match, but its eyelids just wouldn't budge.
Fragmented scenes played before its eyes.
"Hahaha, how can your name be Papa, that lacks impact when shouted during a match. From now on, you'll be called Tang Bupa, don't be afraid, don't be afraid."
"Tang Bupa, you are amazing!"
"Champion! We won the championship!"
"Tang Bupa, I want to grow stronger, to become faster, let's go to the Secret Realm!"
"It's okay, there's nothing in the competition, you just rest well, don't always think about training, once you're recovered we can train just the same."
"I know, but I absolutely will not gamble with Paléi Lulu's future ever again."
"Tang Bupa, wake up!" The voice of his own Beast Tamer entered his ears once again, this time louder than ever before.
"Papa…"
The frequency of its heartbeat quickened, and a mysterious power surged within, Paléi Lulu's consciousness suddenly became clear.
The next second, it opened its eyes.
And at that moment, a dazzling light emerged from its body.
