Chapter 666 Tingbao VS Explosive Firehawk (Two-in-One)

“Using a Exploding Fireball right off the bat…” Qiao Sang looked at the scene in the sky and immediately exclaimed,

“Ten Thousand!”

Tingbao didn’t have any particularly powerful defensive skills. Its newly learned Light Wall was no match for a perfect-level Exploding Fireball. However, its own defense was already quite high among pets of the same rank, so it wouldn’t be directly broken. Moreover, it possessed the characteristic of multiple scales, which halved the damage it received when at full strength.

The opponent unleashed such a wide-range attack right off the bat. With Tingbao’s movement speed and size, it couldn’t dodge it.

But if it used its movement skills, it might be able to dodge it and continue fighting according to its original plan.

In the sky, countless yellow arcs of electricity surged and crackled around Tingbao.

“Bang bang bang!!!”

Just as its arcs appeared, thousands of burning fireballs exploded! The scorching flames instantly filled the sky.

A surging heatwave, accompanied by shockwaves, swept outwards, accompanied by deafening explosions that shook the entire sky.

Fragments of fire rained down like meteors, creating a shower of sparks.

Amidst the terrifying explosions, a bolt of yellow lightning shot out, tearing through the air and soaring into the heavens.

Thorfinn’s brow furrowed instantly upon seeing this.

“Thunder Dragon has broken free of the blast radius of the Explosive Barrage with its 100,000 Volts! It’s heading towards the sky!” On the broadcasting platform, Tao Jia immediately announced the situation.

“I thought Josan had Raijulong use Thunderbolt for attack, but it turns out it was to break out of attack range.” Chen Zhuo nodded slightly, agreeing with the method:

“With Thunderbolt alone, it’s difficult to break through the Exploding Fireball and attack the Exploding Firehawk, which is also covered in fireballs. However, breaking out of the Exploding Fireball’s range is possible. It seems Josan thought of this method early on, otherwise Raijulong wouldn’t have chosen to use Thunderbolt for movement instead of attacking.”

Thunderbolt is a special attack skill, used by condensing lightning from oneself and striking the target without moving.

However, with sufficient proficiency, it can be trained to use the lightning to accelerate movement instead of attacking from a distance, turning it into a physical attack, or simply a movement speed boost.

“Lili.”

Li Meng Guigui nodded and called out, indicating that it was correct.

After saying that, it seemed to remember something and called out again:

“Lili.”

But even so, Raijulong must have suffered some damage just now.

“This is going to unleash a lightning weather attack…” On the high platform, Thorfinn’s mind raced through all the Thunder Dragon’s skills and traits in the data, instantly understanding what it was about to do. He shouted,

“High Explosion!”

“Explosion!” As

soon as he finished speaking, the Explosive Firehawk flapped its wings, transforming into a dazzling streak of fire, soaring into the sky.

Just as it reached the top, the sky suddenly changed dramatically, with dark clouds churning and obscuring the moonlight and starlight.

“Boom!”

A terrifying thunderclap followed.

Streaks of yellow lightning, like lightning snakes, danced and flickered within the thick clouds, then struck down without warning.

Under the lightning-filled night sky, the Explosive Firehawk’s speed did not falter at all; instead, it suddenly accelerated, continuing its upward charge.

“Thunder!”

Beneath the lightning, crackling yellow arcs of electricity appeared around Thunder Treasure, rapidly converging into a terrifying bolt of lightning power, which slammed down in the direction the “firelight” was moving.

The Explosive Firehawk, like a red afterimage, dodged to the side, avoiding the attack.

However, another bolt of lightning struck immediately afterward.

The Explosive Firehawk continued to move and dodge.

Bolts of lightning relentlessly bombarded Tingbao, their speed increasing with each strike.

But the Explosive Firehawk remained faster, darting left and right to evade.

Lightning continued to strike from the clouds, but none accurately struck its location.

In the stands, the audience began to discuss leisurely.

Most of those remaining were fans of the Dragon Kingdom and Qiao Sang. Even though Tingbao hadn’t managed to attack the Explosive Firehawk after so long, they remained unperturbed.

So what if Lei Julong lost? Qiao Sang would inevitably win in the end.

“I didn’t expect the Explosive Firehawk to be so fast, dodging so many lightning attacks.”

“It moves using a Flame Charge, but among King-level pets, the Explosive Firehawk is already considered quite fast.”

“Is the power of the Explosive Fireball at its peak level equivalent to a Super-tier skill?” “

Yes, the Explosive Firehawk’s Explosive Fireball is at its peak level.” “

A King-level pet possessing a Super-tier skill? Thunder Dragon is likely to lose this match.”

“It’s just a Super-tier skill? Thunder Dragon already had Ten Million Volts when it was still Thunder Dragon.”

“Wow! That’s strong!”

“Qiao Sang has many pets with Super-tier skills even at low levels; it’s ridiculously powerful.”

“My god, it’s one thing to be monstrous, but where did it get so many equally monstrous talents from?”

“Electric-type pets are generally fast in both movement and attack speed among all types, but Thunder Dragon always seems a little lacking.”

“Because it’s only a King-level pet, and don’t forget, Thunder Dragon’s primary attribute is Dragon.”

“Of course I know it’s a dragon-type, but after watching so many battles between Emperor-level and Royal-level pets, I almost forgot this is just a battle between King-level pets. No wonder I feel it’s not exciting enough.”

Just as they were discussing, another terrifying bolt of lightning condensed on Tingbao’s body high in the sky and crashed down.

The Explosive Firehawk flashed, easily dodging it.

The terrifying lightning condensed on Tingbao again.

At this moment, the Explosive Firehawk was not far from the clouds.

With each easy dodge, the Explosive Firehawk moved almost only left and right, with no other movement.

Seeing that the lightning on Tingbao was about to strike again, Qiao Sang said,

“Control!”

“Boom!”

A thick bolt of lightning crashed down on Tingbao.

The Explosive Firehawk flapped its wings, about to move to the left to dodge.

However, after moving less than a meter, it was suddenly controlled by an invisible force and could no longer move.

“Bang!”

The lightning finally struck the Exploding Firehawk precisely.

“Explosion!”

The Exploding Firehawk screamed and plummeted downwards.

“What happened?” The audience, who had been leisurely discussing, were all stunned, their faces showing astonishment.

Thorfinn: “!!!”

Psychic power! This Thunder Dragon has a Psychic attribute!

The two hosts and the guest pets on the stage also showed astonishment. Tao Jia quickly reacted, his tone both surprised and shocked:

“The Thunder Dragon used psychic power to control the Exploding Firehawk! Qiao Sang’s Thunder Dragon also has a Psychic attribute!”

“This is truly surprising.” Chen Zhuo’s tone was equally excited: “It seems that the Thunder Dragon not only became a different colored pet after birth, but also awakened an attribute that ordinary Thunder Dragons do not have!”

“Li Li!”

Li Meng Gui Gui was greatly shocked.

So it is possible for a pet to awaken a new attribute after birth!

Chen Zhuo pondered for a moment and said,

“Under normal circumstances, this kind of thing wouldn’t happen. It must be that Qiao Sang’s Lei Julong has the bloodline of another pet beast in its body. So after evolving, not only did its color change, but the attributes of the other bloodline were also activated.”

As soon as he said this, everyone suddenly realized and began to discuss excitedly.

“Wow, so that’s how it is! Non-purebred pets have this kind of advantage after evolution!”

“For professional beast tamers, more attributes in a pet aren’t necessarily better. The more attributes a pet has, the harder it is to learn higher-level skills.”

“That’s true, but the Thunder Dragon is so cool! Its attributes are all the coolest—Dragon, Electric, and Psychic! Wow, I can’t think of any other pet that has all three!” “

Since the Thunder Dragon has the Psychic attribute, why didn’t it use Teleport when it was attacked in the first place? Otherwise, it wouldn’t have been attacked at all.”

“Could it be that it can’t Teleport?”

“How could that be? What Psychic-type pet can’t teleport?”

“Why not? Many low-level Psychic-type pets can’t teleport.”

“You said it’s a low-level pet, but the Thunder Dragon is already a King-level.”

“Who cares if it can teleport? With those three attributes, even if the Thunder Dragon loses, it’ll definitely be because it lacks combat experience.”

“Don’t be so sure, it really lacks battle experience. I’ve never seen Josan use Thunder Dragon much in her previous matches.”

“Josan herself doesn’t participate in many matches, and Thunder Dragon’s level is low, so it’s normal that she hasn’t used it much.”

“Don’t be so sure, just based on these three attributes, plus the super-tier skill ‘Ten Million Volts,’ as long as Thunder Dragon doesn’t underperform in battle, I feel like its chances of winning are quite high.”

“Don’t take attributes too seriously. There are plenty of professional Beastmasters who win against their type. Last time at the Beastmaster Cup, there was even a supposedly weakest Bug-type Royal-level Beast that won against a Dragon-type Beast.”

Just as everyone was discussing, Thorfinn shouted sharply:

“Substitute!”

As his words fell, the Explosive Firehawk, which was falling from the sky, suddenly split in two.

“Boom!”

A loud bang, and a bolt of lightning struck down, hitting one of the Explosive Firehawks.

That Explosive Firehawk immediately vanished.

At the same time, another Explosive Firehawk appeared in the air.

The two Exploding Firehawks stabilized in mid-air, transforming into two streaks of fire that soared rapidly upwards.

High in the sky, arcs of electricity gathered on Tingbao’s body.

However, before it could coalesce into lightning and strike downwards, two burning crimson flames erupted from different directions below, to the left and right.

Tingbao was forced to stop gathering its lightning and twist its body to dodge quickly.

The two burning crimson flames that struck the sky did not dissipate; instead, like two crimson whips, they swept back and forth in the air, chasing Tingbao’s movements, attacking him.

Wherever the scorching flames swept, the air was distorted by the heat.

This wasn’t to attack Tingbao, but to keep him moving, preventing him from unleashing his lightning power and hindering their upward movement… Qiao Sang watched the scene unfold, his mind racing.

Exploding Firehawks had almost always won matches using the Exploding Fireball technique, and in this match, it was definitely planning to use it as well.

This skill could grow and was incredibly powerful, but it had a drawback.

That is, to successfully attack the target using this skill, one must be at a high position, or at the same position as the target. Only then can the explosive fireballs appear around the target.

Even if the distance to the target is too far, as long as it is used from above, and there are enough explosive fireballs, it is still possible to damage the target.

Therefore, the Explosive Firehawk is working so hard to fly into the sky, in order to reach the same height as Tingbao, or even higher.

Actually, it’s not a big deal for it to fly higher. Although it can unleash explosive fireballs, in the current thunderous weather, the higher it flies, the more dangerous it actually is…

Qiao Sang thought of this, her eyes flickered slightly, and she did not issue any commands.

High in the sky, Tingbao moved while circulating its energy, imitating the Explosive Firehawk by occasionally bombarding the lightning downwards.

“Bang!”

After bombarding twice, a bolt of lightning successfully struck one of the Explosive Firehawks, but the Explosive Firehawk dissipated, and another one immediately reappeared, continuing to move upwards as it turned into flames, while unleashing a horizontal attack of flames upwards.

Soon, the two Explosive Firehawks reached the same height as Tingbao.

“It’s close enough…” Qiao Sang, watching the exploding fire hawks moving as if in a thunderstorm, had a sudden thought and shouted,

“Fire!”

As soon as he finished speaking, hundreds of white scales emerged, gleaming with silvery light, shooting out like a sky full of sharp blades, tearing through the air and splitting in different directions, simultaneously hurtling towards the two exploding fire hawks.

Almost at the same moment the white scales shot out, thousands of burning fireballs appeared in the air.

“Bang bang bang!!!”

Before the silvery-white scales could reach the two exploding fire hawks, the thousands of fireballs exploded simultaneously, the scorching flames instantly covering the entire sky, momentarily obscuring Ting Bao’s figure.

The silvery-white scales didn’t break through the flames of the explosion; instead, they turned into charred remains, falling downwards with the rain of flames.

Suddenly, a surge of fire erupted in the air, as if something was about to burst forth.

“Don’t stop!” Thorfinn shouted.

“Explode!”

Thousands of burning fireballs reappeared high in the sky.

The one that cried out was the Exploding Firehawk on the left, but based on its past battle performance, it didn’t usually cry out when using Exploding Fireballs. Moreover, the Exploding Firehawk had already reached the same height as Tingbao, so there was no need to expend energy maintaining the substitute.

You must know that using a super-tier skill requires a lot of energy for a King-level pet, but it had already used Exploding Fireballs twice, and the substitute was still there, with both Exploding Firehawks still in the same pose of spreading their wings and using the skill.

The one on the right was the real Exploding Firehawk! After a brief moment of thought, Qiao Sang made his decision and said,

“Right!”

“Bang bang bang!!!”

Thousands of burning fireballs exploded again.
