Chapter 1443 The Fierce-Scaled Dragon Battle
"boom!"
A powerful shockwave, accompanied by dazzling light, swept across the entire arena.
The Nebula Fairy was sent flying backward, crashing directly into the barrier that covered the area, and finally fell to the ground, never to rise again.
The audience was silent.
"Nebula Fairy launched a surprise attack! However, it was perfectly neutralized by the Dark Ring Lord's incredible reflexes! The Stardust Beam pierced through the shadows and struck Nebula Fairy herself! Nebula Fairy looks like she can't get up anymore! Is this match over?!"
At Nephthys's voice, the little treasure hunter cautiously stretched out its two claws, and a black shadow quickly spread, instantly connecting with the Nebula Fairy.
The next second, the Nebula Fairy was controlled to turn over, then turn over again and again.
Finally, under the control of the shadow, the Nebula Fairy did a handstand.
Auror, who was about to respond, paused for a moment upon seeing this.
The audience was completely bewildered.
Seeing that his opponent still hadn't made a move, Little Treasure Hunter finally relaxed, breathed a sigh of relief, and released Nebula Fairy.
This should really be over now.
"boom!"
The Nebula Fairy fell back to the ground.
Lefebvre's eyelids twitched.
"The Lord of the Underworld is quite cautious now, having learned from his previous experience," Auror said with a smile. "He knows to check on the Nebula Fairy to see if it has truly fainted this time."
"Reli".
Jeriloka took a graceful sip of water and called out, indicating that even with the Lord of the Underworld's antics, the Nebula Fairy still hadn't woken up, and it seemed she had truly fainted.
After speaking, he looked at the staff member next to him and pointed to the empty water glass.
The staff quickly stepped forward and filled the water cup with water.
Gerril Roca took a satisfied sip.
While it was drinking water, the pet wearing the referee's badge came to the Nebula Fairy's side, checked it, and then raised the green flag and waved it in the direction of Josang.
A virtual screen appeared out of thin air on the field, and below Lefebvre's photo, the Nebula Fairy's portrait changed from color to black and white.
A medical team in white coats appeared out of thin air next to the Nebula Fairy, carried it away, and disappeared.
"The result of this match is in! The Lord of the Underworld has emerged victorious! Jossan has won the match!" On the commentary stage, Nefertis announced in a passionate voice, "The score is now 1-2! Jossan is leading by one point!"
"Looking around~"
"Looking around~"
Seeing that the dust had settled, Little Treasure Hunter stood tall and greeted the audience warmly.
Cheers erupted instantly, and the entire stadium erupted in cheers.
"Qiao Sang! Qiao Sang!"
"Little treasure hunter! Little treasure hunter!"
"The Lord of the Underworld! The Lord of the Underworld!"
"The Lord of the Underworld is simply too strong! He actually defeated the Nebula Fairy without taking any damage!"
"When the Nebula Fairy suddenly launched its attack, it startled me. I thought it was going to succeed in its sneak attack, but the Lord of the Underworld reacted quickly enough to defuse the crisis."
"Qiao Sang reacted the fastest. Before the Nebula Fairy even started to act, she noticed it and reminded the Lord of the Underworld Ring. Otherwise, this game would have been very difficult to predict."
"And the Sacred Fire of the Burning Emperor, I feel that the Sacred Fire really played a crucial role several times, especially during the last sneak attack. If the Sacred Fire in the Nebula Fairy's body hadn't suddenly taken effect, the Underworld Ring Monarch would definitely have been successfully ambushed."
"Although the Lord of the Underworld didn't suffer any injuries in this match, it still felt like a pretty close win."
"The match between the Lord of the Underworld and the Nebula Fairy is really exciting. It feels like if either of them makes a mistake at any stage, the outcome of the match will change."
"To be honest, Nebula Fairy performed very well. It was able to unleash its power in the final stage when it was in dire straits. If it weren't for the Holy Fire suddenly taking effect, it should have won this match."
"What? It's at most a draw. Don't forget that the Netherworld Lord also has the 'mutual destruction' trait."
"That's right, the Dark Ring Monarch's mutual destruction trait hasn't been activated yet. Does this mean that the Dark Ring Monarch can at least take away one of Lefebvre's royal-level pets?"
"Lefeld's two aces are gone, but Josang's Netherworld Lord is still unharmed. Although Lefeld still has three royal-level pets in their prime, I feel that Josang's chances of winning are actually higher."
"If Josan can defeat Lefebvre in the end, I'm sure she will become famous throughout the galaxy."
"I feel like she's about there now."
“That’s different. Winning the championship will definitely bring greater prestige and fame. Don’t geniuses need achievements to prove themselves? If Qiao Sang wins the championship, he will achieve that in one step.”
"I don't dare to comment on Qiao Sang anymore. I always feel that she must have her reasons for doing everything."
"I have completely submitted to the power and talent of God Joe."
"So this is the one who called for the God of Qiao? It's not certain who will win in the end. Lefebvre's remaining three royal-level pets are not weak either. How come you're making it sound like he's bound to lose in the end?"
"Isn't that because Lefebvre has lost both of his aces?"
"Although Lefebvre's two aces have fallen, his remaining three royal-level pets are also very strong, okay? There's a popular post online that says Lefebvre's strongest pet is actually Nightshade."
"Nightmare Spirit? Why? It's just a rare combat form, isn't it?"
"You definitely haven't seen that post. The person who posted it analyzed that since three years ago, Nightshade has never lost a match. Its win rate in major professional matches has been 100% for the past three years."
"Isn't it because it doesn't appear often? Both Hellfire and Nebula Fairy have won several matches in a row, but I remember that Nightshade has only won two matches in a row at most."
"It didn't collapse after two games, it was just taken back by Lefebvre."
"Speaking of which, in the matches that Leifeld has participated in over the past few years, it seems that I haven't actually seen E'Xiling pushed to the limit in any of the matches."
"If Lefebvre sends out Nightshade next, you'll see it pushed to its limit by Little Treasure Hunter! Little Treasure Hunter!"
"Xia Xia!"
"Xia Xia!"
Inside the VIP room, Sharara waved her light stick and cheered excitedly. Michaela suppressed the urge to burst out laughing and took several photos of the scene. She didn't post them in the group chat, and no matter how much the people in the group cheered, she remained silent.
Although Josan won the last round, it was actually very close. If it weren't for the Holy Fire working wonders several times, the Little Treasure Hunter's mutual destruction ability would have been triggered, and the chances of a draw would have been very high.
Lefebvre certainly has the ability to win the championship. Based on past experience, she should not rush to open the champagne when both sides are evenly matched and she has the advantage, otherwise she may easily turn her joy into sorrow.
After taking the photos, Michaela looked at the constantly refreshing messages in the group chat and resisted the urge to reply.
On the field.
"Looking around~"
"Looking around~"
Little Treasure Hunter enthusiastically greeted the audience, making sure to reach every single person in the audience.
After A finishes swinging, swing to B; after B finishes swinging, swing to C; after C finishes swinging, swing to D.
Every time I waved to a different area, the audience in that area would respond with even louder screams and cheers than those in other areas.
A continuous stream of white energy flowed into its body.
Qiao Sang was both delighted and secretly wary.
To everyone's delight, Little Treasure Hunt won the match unscathed and gained an unimaginable amount of white energy. However, he was wary of the beast tamers of Yantian Star, who proved to be formidable opponents. Even if one thoroughly researched the beast tamer, his pet might still suddenly turn the tide of the battle.
If it weren't for the Holy Fire taking effect in the end, the little treasure hunter would definitely have been ambushed successfully.
Although the two most troublesome royal-level pets had been dealt with, we still couldn't be careless. Any mistake or relaxation could lead to defeat. As Qiao Sang thought this, he waved his hand and recalled Little Treasure Hunter, who was enthusiastically waving to the audience, back into the Beast Taming Manual.
Now that it's the finals, we can't afford to make any mistakes. Even though Little Treasure Hunt can continue to fight, if we keep it on the field, the opponent will definitely send out a pet that can counter Little Treasure Hunt.
Having finally managed to disrupt the order of Lefebvre's best lineup and avoid being countered in every match, she didn't want to be countered again.
The audience, who were screaming and cheering for the little treasure hunt, suddenly stopped.
"Joseph has chosen to summon the Lord of the Underworld back!" Aurore announced loudly from the commentary booth.
"With Lefebvre still having three Royal-level pets, summoning the Nether Ring Monarch back for recovery is indeed a better option," Nephthys said with anticipation. "I wonder what kind of pets Lefebvre and Josang will summon in the upcoming matches."
"Reli".
Geriloka took a sip of water and meowed in response, indicating that it was also looking forward to it.
During the conversation, the venue was changed.
A mechanical-type pet wearing a referee's badge came onto the field and blew the whistle to signal preparation.
The light and shadow of the number "10" appeared on the field, constantly changing accompanied by mechanical sounds.
"9, 8, 7"
Of the remaining royal-level pets, Qiao Sang only has Ice Saint Asia and Steel Power Emperor. According to the divination results of Copper Coin Bu Bu, Ice Saint Asia should have faced Nebula Fairy. In the divination, Nebula Fairy was the third to appear. According to this situation, Ice Saint Asia should also be the third to appear. So, the next one to appear is most likely Ice Saint Asia. Leifeld pondered for a moment and quickly made a decision.
In the blink of an eye, the light and shadow arrived at "1" and then disappeared.
Jossan and Lefebvre simultaneously formed hand seals.
Two mysterious and profound purple star arrays lit up on the field.
Before long, two enormous pet beasts appeared in their respective star arrays.
As one of the pets appeared, the temperature of the entire area plummeted, as if large, white snowflakes were falling from the sky without warning.
In the audience, everyone and their pets unconsciously showed expressions of amazement, and they all took out their phones to take pictures of the scene.
"The summoned beasts for this match have appeared!" On the commentary stage, Nefertis exclaimed, "Players Lefebvre and Jossan have summoned the Steel-Scaled Fighting Dragon and the Ice Saint respectively!"
The Steel-Scaled Dragon is a royal-level pet beast with both Fighting and Dragon types. Although it possesses the Dragon type, its form is more humanoid. It is said to have the innate characteristic of an indomitable spirit. When it is frightened, its speed will increase. It lives on the top of a treacherous mountain year-round, constantly whipping waterfalls with its dragon tail. It is believed that the arduous physical training can better stimulate the dragon power within its body. Because of its appearance, it is generally not recognized by other dragon-type races. However, because of its super strength, it is deeply loved by Fighting-type races. It is an extremely special pet beast. Qiao Sang looked at the pet beast in the distance, which was about twenty meters tall. Its body was covered with thick dragon scales of blue and gray, like a tailor-made hard armor. The two horns on its head curved backward like a crown. Its tail was exceptionally thick. It stood on two legs and was more humanoid. Information about it appeared in his mind.
Regarding the Steelscale Fighting Dragon, judging from its type, Fighting seems to be a perfect counter to Lupus's Ice type. Thinking of this, the first thought that came to Jossan's mind was:
How unlucky! I summoned a pet that counters me. But in top-level professional competitions like this, attribute advantage is sometimes easier to deal with.
The second thought immediately followed: Could the other person have made their deductions based on the order in which the divination results appeared?
In the blink of an eye, the muscles all over Ganglin Doulong's body suddenly swelled up.
"Steel Scales!"
Then, with a roar, he stomped down hard with his left foot, which was filled with explosive power.
Suddenly, a terrifying white energy erupted from it, exploding wildly in the direction of Lu Bao.
The site exploded, sending rocks flying everywhere.
Just as the terrifying white explosive energy was only about ten meters away from Lu Bao, a bone-chilling cold suddenly descended, and the explosive energy underground abruptly stopped. The scattered rocks also condensed into an ice shell and froze in mid-air.
Everything on the field was covered with a thick layer of ice, including the Steel Scale Dragon.
However, the moment the ice shell condensed on the Steel Scale Dragon's body, the muscles under its scales expanded. Without any burst of energy, it directly used its strength to shatter the ice shell around its body with a "crack"!
Immediately afterwards, the Steel-Scaled Dragon, like a white afterimage, rushed straight towards Lu Bao!
"Protect!" Qiao Sang commanded.
Sharp ice spikes rapidly grew all over Lu Bao's body, covering every corner of her body.
The ice cones form so quickly, almost instantaneously.
But the Steel-Scaled Dragon's movement speed was terrifyingly fast. With its charge, the air was split apart like water, and the ice shell on the ground cracked and splashed away along its trajectory.
Despite the Steel-Scaled Dragon's movement speed, the formation of ice spikes on Lu Bao's body appeared incredibly slow.
When they were only ten meters away from Lu Bao, the ice spikes on Lu Bao's body had not yet fully formed.
Suddenly, the Steel-Scaled Dragon unleashed an even more terrifying speed, disappearing in an instant as if by teleportation, and reappearing a few meters above Lu Bao. It swung its fist, which was filled with silver-white energy, and smashed it down hard.
Wherever it lands, the tip of the icicle shatters instantly.
However, at this moment, the cold air spread again, and the entire body of the Steel Scale Fighting Dragon was covered with an ice shell, freezing it once more.
The next moment, the ice shell cracked open with a "crack".
However, at the very moment the ice shell cracked, Lu Bao did not create distance, but instead looked up and shot out an extremely cold beam of light.
A chilling aura surged into the soul of the Steel-Scaled Dragon like a whirlwind.
Its entire body was once again covered with a thick layer of ice.
This time, the ice shell did not shatter directly like it had the previous two times.
The Steel-Scaled Dragon remained frozen in mid-air, its fist poised in a swinging motion. (End of Chapter)
