Chapter 2489: Chapter 404: Top 6 Contestants

The gazes of the crowd and the Pet Beasts tracked the trajectory of the Hard Bone Fire Monkey as it was blasted into the air, then quickly darted back down.

"BANG!"

With a loud crash, the Hard Bone Fire Monkey slammed heavily onto the ground. As the camera zoomed in, it could be seen with its eyes tightly shut, having fallen into a dead faint.

At this moment, all the spectators who had bet on Candidate Qiao Sang winning 6-0 instinctively held their breath, their adrenaline surging rapidly.

"The Thunder Dragon has unleashed Ten Million Volts!" Despite her shock, Nephthys didn’t forget her duty at the commentator’s desk. She exclaimed excitedly, "Ten Million Volts has successfully struck the Hard Bone Fire Monkey! Is this match finally over?!"

"I can’t believe the Thunder Dragon was able to use the Super-level Skill, Ten Million Volts," Auroal sighed in amazement. "I’m sure Candidate Feng Fu didn’t expect this either, or she wouldn’t have let the Hard Bone Fire Monkey flip onto the Thunder Dragon’s back."

"Sidong," the Sidong Flower cried out, looking up at the majestic figure hovering in mid-air. Even though it was covered in injuries, it didn’t waver in the slightest. With an awestruck expression, it conveyed that only a Pet Beast as handsome as the Thunder Dragon could possibly learn a Super-level Skill at the General-level stage.

"I miscalculated. To think it actually knows Ten Million Volts..." High up on the platform, Feng Fu let out a heavy sigh, suddenly feeling a bit sorry for herself. "If Qiao Sang hadn’t sent out the Thunder Dragon, getting swept zero-to-six would just be getting swept. But now that Qiao Sang summoned her newly-evolved General-level Thunder Dragon for the first time, I still lost the match and handed her a flawless victory. I’m definitely going to get chewed out by my teacher when I get back..."

While these thoughts flashed through her mind, the Mechanical-type Pet Beast wearing the Referee Certificate hovered over to the Hard Bone Fire Monkey. It observed the monkey for a moment, then raised a green flag and waved it in Qiao Sang’s direction.

A Virtual Screen materialized out of thin air above the arena. Feng Fu’s photo disappeared, and the pictures of Qiao Sang, Yaobao, and the others expanded to fill the center. Among them, Tingbao’s photo appeared for the very first time. According to the final tally, a Pet Beast’s photo would only be displayed on the final Virtual Screen if it had actually participated in this round of the competition.

"Ting Ting."

Tingbao looked at its own photo on the Virtual Screen. An unprecedented sense of satisfaction welled up in its heart, but it restrained itself, merely allowing the corners of its mouth to curl up into a faint smile.

"Let us congratulate Candidate Qiao Sang for once again claiming a 6-0 victory!" Nephthys passionately declared from the commentator’s desk. "She has become the final contestant to successfully advance to the Top 5!"

Cheers instantly erupted, and the entire stadium boiled over with excitement.

The spectators who had bet on Candidate Qiao Sang winning 6-0 were practically weeping tears of joy. Some were so overwhelmed they bordered on madness—tearing off their shirts and hurling them into the air, pulling each other into tight hugs, and some even excitedly tossing their own Pet Beasts up into the sky.

They loudly chanted Qiao Sang’s name and Tingbao’s Species name, their fervent energy making it sound as if they were chanting the champion’s name.

"Qiao Sang! Qiao Sang!"

"Thunder Dragon! Thunder Dragon!"

"I’m seriously going to cry! Qiao Sang! I will be your fan forever!"

"For real, Qiao Sang and the Thunder Dragon just saved a family on the verge of falling apart. Qiao Sang! I love you! Thunder Dragon! I love you!"

"The Thunder Dragon is so awesome, too! Even though it’s only a General-level Pet Beast, it actually knows the Super-level Skill, Ten Million Volts."

"Its defensive power feels incredibly strong as well. It doesn’t seem like a newly-evolved General-level Pet Beast at all. The Hard Bone Fire Monkey attacked it for ages just now, but it doesn’t look like it sustained any serious injuries. When I heard the name ’Thunder Dragon’, I assumed it was just an Attack Type Pet Beast."

"This Thunder Dragon definitely has a Defense Type Trait, otherwise it couldn’t possibly withstand the attacks of a Late General-level Pet Beast."

"Feng Fu was too careless. If she hadn’t made the Hard Bone Fire Monkey flip onto the Thunder Dragon’s back at the end, she probably wouldn’t have lost."

"You can’t really blame her. Who would have thought a newly-evolved General-level Pet Beast would know a Super-level Skill? Besides, I remember all of you praising how badass it was when the Hard Bone Fire Monkey flipped onto the Thunder Dragon’s back."

"If the Thunder Dragon didn’t know Ten Million Volts, the Hard Bone Fire Monkey would have definitely won this match. It flipped onto the Thunder Dragon’s back so that it could immediately launch another close-combat attack after tearing through the Electric Grid. With its body still covered in Fire Bone Armor, it probably anticipated the Thunder Dragon would seize the chance to strike and figured it could defend against it. It just didn’t expect that attack to be Ten Million Volts."

"I think so, too. The Hard Bone Fire Monkey could definitely endure a High-level attack skill. As long as it withstood the hit, broke through the Electric Grid, and went in for another close-combat attack, the Thunder Dragon would surely go down. The previous two Fire Bone Attacks didn’t seem to deal any critical damage to the Thunder Dragon, but it was obvious the Thunder Dragon would struggle to endure that final close-combat strike."
