In the Astral Pet Battle Stadium.
Bursts of cheers erupted. The other ordinary students who didn't have the chance to participate were also very excited from the spectator seats.
By then …
Almost all the participants who could pass the preliminaries were outstanding students who ranked in the top 100 of the academy's combat strength ranking. Among them, there would be some celebrities who were rarely seen in the academy.
The quality of the competition had obviously increased. The pets that were sent out were at least of the third rank. Second-rank pets were rarely seen. Even if there were, they would be defeated as soon as they entered the arena.
When it came to those strong students who were on the combat strength ranking, the atmosphere would be heated up!
"There are still about 10 minutes left. Don't worry."
Su Yanying and Lan Lele went to the arena as well. They found their seats and sat down at once.
At the moment, other competitions were going on. The two sides were quite strong and they were locked in a fierce battle.
Su Yanying looked around and suddenly felt someone was looking at her. She turned around and found that the source of the gaze was in front of her. There was a cold and straight figure sitting there. It was Jiang Hanxue, who had the nickname "Ice Cube."
She didn't have anything to do with Jiang Hanxue in the beginning. However, as the people around them talked about it, they somehow became competitors.
Gossip was a fearful thing.
Later on …
She started to care about Jiang Hanxue.
Over time, they really became competitors with each other.
That gaze was naturally from Jiang Hanxue. Su Yanying's eyes glowed. Now that she had tested the combat strength of several pets, she was absolutely confident that she could defeat Jiang Hanxue. It wouldn't be a close fight like before!
Lan Lele looked at the display on the electronic board and encouraged Su Yanying, "Yingying, it's your turn. Be careful. I'll wait for your triumphant return."
Su Yanying smiled. "Don't worry. I know my opponent well. I can crush him with the Fallen Phoenix alone."
At this time, the commentator also called out the names of Su Yanying and her opponent.
The audience cheered along.
Su Yanying was a celebrity in the academy. After all, she was among the top 10 of the combat strength ranking for senior girls. Naturally, she would attract a lot of attention.
Soon, her opponent went on stage. It was a short and fat boy.
The short and fat boy went on stage and said, "Miss Su, if I win, can you give me an autograph? Just sign on my chest. I promise I won't take a shower for the rest of my life!"
"Phew!"
The audience booed.
"Senior Sister Su is shared by all of us, who dares to monopolize her!!" A group of males below the stage roared.
Hearing the commotion, Su Yanying frowned and said coldly, "Wait until you win."
"Alright!" The short and fat boy was encouraged. He summoned his pet at once. It was a pet of the water family with a middle-rank bloodline, the Hidden Water Beast.
This was a humanoid pet. Its body was like a mass of water and it was best at hiding and assassinating.
The pet was also equipped with an elemental dagger that could turn into a stream of water along with its body.
Without hesitation, Su Yanying summoned the Fallen Phoenix.
"Screech!"
As soon as the Fallen Phoenix showed up, the crowd cried out in surprise. After all, the Fallen Phoenix was a pet with an advanced bloodline. Naturally, the Fallen Phoenix would become an advanced pet once it reached adulthood. The Fallen Phoenix was extremely precious and the other pets at the middle and low rank could not compare to it.
Blazing flames curled around the Fallen Phoenix, making it look like a divine bird.
In a situation where their attributes countered each other, it would depend on whose combat power was stronger.
As soon as the referee announced the start of the match, the short and fat boy loudly admitted defeat.
This result was within everyone's expectations.
Su Yanying thought the boy was sensible. But then, she saw the happy smile on the boy's face when he called away his pet.
Su Yanying frowned. Something didn't feel right.
At this moment, the short and fat boy summoned his second pet, a pet of the stone family.
While the Fallen Phoenix could not be countered by this pet, it was resistant to fire.
"It's the Earth Seizer!"
Su Yanying's expression changed the moment she saw this pet. The Earth Seizer was one of the more outstanding pets of the stone family. While it could not defeat pets of the fire family, the Earth Seizer was the bane of flying pets!
"I'm sorry, Miss Su. I've looked up all the information about your matches and I know your pets like the back of my hand. Of all your pets, the Fallen Phoenix is the most difficult to deal with. As for the Ugly Rock Beast and the Fanged Tiger, while they are also strong, they are good at fighting head-on. You only need to crush them head-on.
"But for the Fallen Phoenix, even a fifth-rank pet would find it hard to defeat it. Instead, the Fallen Phoenix would exhaust the Fallen Phoenix to death.
"Of course, you still have that talented little mouse. But it won't be of much use in a match like this. My Earth Seizer alone can defeat the Fallen Phoenix easily."
The short and fat boy smiled. The outcome of the match had been decided.
Su Yanying pulled a long face. She had looked into this boy's information. But the Earth Seizer was not among his pets. That was why she could send out the Fallen Phoenix so easily.
"Oh, I forgot to tell you, Mr. Su. For this competition, I've used up all the pocket money I've saved for the past three years. I rented this Earth Catcher and my trump card a month ago. My purpose is to participate in this competition."
The short and fat boy chuckled. His gaze swept across the field as he said, "I want everyone to remember my name and know of my existence at the end of this competition! I will not remain a nobody after I graduate! "
Su Yanying took a deep breath.
Three years' worth of pocket money …
What did that mean?
"So, you haven't spent any pocket money in the past three years?" Su Yanying couldn't help but ask.
The short and fat boy raised his eyebrows. "That's right."
"Then, don't you eat snacks?" Su Yanying couldn't imagine how horrible life would be if he didn't have potato chips, cola, fried chicken, and other snacks!
The short and fat boy frowned. "Of course."
Was this the time to talk about this?
"Then why are you still so fat?" Su Yanying asked.
Bang! Soul Strike!
The short and fat boy felt as if he had been punched by a substitute. His chest felt tight. His lips twitched several times. Finally, he managed to hold himself back and said in a hoarse voice, "Su Yanying, you will regret saying that."
"Is that so?"
Su Yanying raised her hand, and a gust of wind wrapped around the Fallen Phoenix, causing the already light and agile Fallen Phoenix to fly even faster.
She had met her nemesis but she still chose to fight.
"Hmm, courting death."
The short and fat boy's face was gloomy. He sent a message to the Earth Seizer. "Dungeon Imprisonment!"
Bang! Bang!
Bang! Dozens of spikes suddenly protruded from the ground and rushed toward the Fallen Phoenix in midair.
"That's the Dungeon Skill that the Earth Seizer is best at!" the commentator exclaimed.
Su Yanying was eager to fight. How could she know who was stronger without fighting?
Restrained?
That was true.
But if she was strong enough, she could pry open the shackles that restrained her!
"Flaming Bird!" Su Yanying ordered the Fallen Phoenix to attack.
"Flame Cut!"
Su Yanying used two pet skills in a row. A flaming bird flew out from the Fallen Phoenix and dived toward the short and fat boy.
The short and fat boy sneered. "Ksitigarbha Protection!"
Bang!
Many earthen walls were erected on the ground, shielding him.
The flaming bird smashed into the earthen walls, turning into sparks and dissipating in an instant.
As for the Flame Breath Cut that followed closely behind, it was also rendered useless.
Su Yanying's expression changed.
So hard.
Pets of the earth family were highly resistant to fire. But the earthen walls were too hard!
"It's time to end this."
The short and fat boy used "Delaying Observation" to see what was going on outside. Seeing that the Fallen Phoenix's attack was futile, he sneered. "Do you think that I spent all the pocket money I saved for three years just to buy a piece of garbage?"
Su Yanying had already used her Delaying Observation. She was surprised to hear what the short and fat boy inside the earthen wall said. She looked at the Earth Seizer again and her expression changed.
"It's an adult Earth Seizer!"
"Fifth-rank!"
Su Yanying's face clouded over when she saw the number of rock horns on the Earth Seizer's jaw.
If the Earth Seizer was an average third-rank Earth Seizer, her Fallen Phoenix would be able to fight back, even if the Earth Seizer's property was incompatible with hers. But this was a fifth-rank Earth Seizer … Her Fallen Phoenix was only at the upper position of the third rank!
"Come back." Su Yanying was disappointed. She had been tricked. She admitted defeat.
But she still had the Lightning Rat and the Fanged Tiger, which were her trump cards.
While she was calling out to the Earth Seizer, the Fallen Phoenix suddenly sensed a resistance. At the same time, the Fallen Phoenix was being chased by the Earth Seizer and was forced into a corner.
The Fallen Phoenix breathed out Flame Cut and attacked the Earth Seizer from left and right. However, the flames didn't cause much damage to the Earth Seizer. The Earth Seizer was merely blackened.
"Come back." Su Yanying hurried to activate the power of the contract.
Right at this moment, a long cry filled with arrogance and anger rose to the sky!
"Shriek!"
A puff of flame burst out. At the same time, a beam of scorching light swept across, cutting off all the Earth Seizer that was flying around in the air!
The speaker who was lamenting the fact that the Fallen Phoenix was being targeted and that it was hard to turn the tables suddenly froze.
What did he see?
Eighth-rank pet skill of the fire family, Blazing Ray?!!
