"Summon Shadow Leopard!" The bright-eyed thief quickly placed her palm on her silver grimoire, preparing to summon her third beast.
"Too late!"
The triangular-eyed man who had just flashed out of the door laughed coldly, his voice extremely pleased with himself.
Without any summoning action, a small monster covered in black flames appeared behind him. Yue Yang had already seen the beast encyclopedia that Yue Bing had brought back from the academy. He discovered that this small monster looked a bit like the Fire Essence Monster in the encyclopedia. According to the beast encyclopedia, the Fire Essence Monster's attack power was not strong, but it was good at casting fireballs. The Fire Essence Monster was a product of the Demon Abyss. There was no such evil creature in the Soaring Dragon Continent.
Seeing that the triangular-eyed man had a Fire Essence Monster following him without summoning, the mercenaries were all in an uproar.
This was not because they were shocked at his strength, but because they despised him.
There was an unwritten rule in the world of mercenaries and in duels between martial artists. In a public duel, everyone had to use an open and aboveboard summoning method to duel.
Only the most despicable and shameless people would secretly summon their beasts and launch a sneak attack on their opponent.
This triangular-eyed man called Xie Huo must have secretly summoned this Fire Essence Monster from the Merry Forest Building. He did not come out and waited until Wu Yi was at a disadvantage before coming out to take advantage of the situation. It was already annoying enough that he did not care about a one on one duel. He had even summoned his beast first. It was really unbearable. If not for the fact that the mercenaries knew this guy and knew that they were not his opponent, they would have rushed up and hacked him to death.
When another Devil Bee appeared behind the triangular-eyed 'Xie Huo', everyone was so helpless that they did not even have the strength to scold him. This kind of shameless guy should be struck by lightning. He should not be allowed to live in this world anymore.
If Xie Huo said that his Fire Essence Monster was not purposely targeting the bright-eyed thief's Bewildering Butterfly, there might be one or two idiots among the mercenaries who would believe him.
However, when this Devil Bee with yellow and black stripes on its abdomen appeared, even an idiot would understand.
This Xie Huo, who had an abnormally wretched appearance and an extremely trashy character, was clearly targeting the bright-eyed thief. Combined with what Xie Huo had just said about the right to her first night, everyone suddenly felt that even though they were not good people and were a complete mess, compared to Xie Huo, they were practically saints.
I've seen people with trashy morals, but I've never seen such a trashy person!
Bewildering Butterflies and other insect-type flying beasts were most afraid of fire or ice. That Fire Essence Monster's fireball would definitely be able to instantly kill the defenseless Bewildering Butterflies.
As for the powerful Spider Demoness, her only nemesis was the Devil Bee.
The Demon Bee's agility allowed it to dodge the spider webs, and at the same time, it was not afraid of the spider's venom. On the contrary, its stinger could paralyze the Spider Demoness to death … The bright-eyed thief saw Triangle Eyes Xie Huo's two beasts, and was so nervous that her whole body trembled slightly. Following the bright eyed thief's command, the Bewildering Butterfly quickly flew up, preparing to fly back into the Light Barrier and be recalled into the Silver Grimoire. However, it was too late.
The Fire Essence Monster spat out a black fireball that formed a curved parabola. It chased after the Bewildering Butterfly and finally exploded on its wings.
Boom!
The Bewildering Butterfly was blasted into pieces by the black fireball and burned into charcoal.
On the other hand, the Rock Golem that had lost control of the Bewildering Butterfly immediately moved. It walked over with large strides, raised its huge rock fist, and heavily smashed it towards the Shadow Leopard that the bright-eyed thief had just summoned. Although it was impossible for the Rock Golem to hit the Shadow Leopard that was famous for its speed and stealth, the Shadow Leopard had no way to fight against the Rock Golem and could only hurriedly dodge.
The Rock Golem's heavy fist pounded the ground.
The huge force was like thunder exploding, causing the ground to tremble.
On the other side, the Spider Demoness let out a terrified scream and quickly escaped towards the Light Barrier. It continuously jumped a few times and was finally able to escape into the Light Barrier before the Devil Bee caught up.
Although it managed to escape, it was still trembling in fear. It was obvious that it was incomparably afraid of its nemesis.
"So this is how summoned beasts fight. Interesting." Yue Yang watched with great interest. He had finally seen a battle between beasts between summoners.
In a battle, other than fighting with strength, one also had to fight with wits.
Beasts were not omnipotent. The most important thing was to coordinate their battle tactics.
For example, a Bewildering Butterfly would not be able to defeat a Battle Eagle, but it was extremely effective against the Rock Golem. The Spider Demoness was the nemesis of flying beasts, but the Devil Bee was an exception. The Flame Essence Monster's fireball could instantly kill the Bewildering Butterfly, but its true battle power was not even 1% of the Rock Golem's.
After watching this battle, Yue Yang came to a conclusion.
One thing to counter another.
There were no invincible beasts in this world, but there were near invincible battle tactics and counter tactics.
Now, Yue Yang understood why warriors with summoning grimoires had such a huge advantage.
The reason was very simple. It was because a warrior with a grimoire would first have a Guardian Beast that would never truly die and would never betray him. Secondly, as long as one had a grimoire, there wouldn't be too many restrictions when it came to contracting beasts. They would be able to use more beasts to carry out targeted counterattacks. If Xie Huo had not suddenly joined the battle and interfered, Wu Yi, who had been completely suppressed in battle tactics, would probably have been torn to pieces by the Shadow Leopard.
As for now, the bright-eyed thief's situation was far from good …
"Let's go, Wu Yi is about to summon a powerful beast. I can't hold on for long." The bright-eyed thief did not bother to comfort the terrified Spider Demoness and quickly stuffed an exquisitely crafted scroll into Yue Yang's hands. "This is a 'Teleportation Scroll'. Open it and inject your spiritual energy into it, just like how you summon beasts."
"Summon beasts?" Yue Yang pretended to be innocent as he blinked his star-like eyes.
"Ah, you don't even know how to summon beasts?" The bright-eyed thief felt as if her head had been struck by lightning. Could it be that this brat spent all his time chasing girls? Could it be that he didn't even have a single beast?
No wonder he had just applied to be a mercenary a few days ago.
This time, she was done for.
"You want to leave? It won't be that easy. "Xie Huo laughed sinisterly.
He made a very strange gesture and used his dagger to quickly draw a bloody pattern on his palm.
The pattern flashed with a red light. Two of the red lights shot towards the sky and exploded like fireworks, scattering the red light in all directions. At this time, a thought wave appeared in Yue Yang's mind: Your enemy is forcing you into a 'Death Duel'. Before one of you dies, you cannot leave the boundary of the 'Bloody World of Death'. Otherwise, divine punishment will descend and all the veins in your body will explode and you will die.
The bright-eyed thief's lily-white hands trembled slightly. It was obvious that she had also received Xie Huo's' Death Duel 'message.
Xie Huo's request for a 'Death Duel' was not without conditions. His face was as pale as paper, and his bloody hand seemed to be swallowed by an invisible monster. His wound continuously split open and bled, even rotting, emitting a foul stench.
"Die in my place. This is your honour. Hahaha." Xie Huo pressed his bloody hand on the Flame Essence Monster's head. The Flame Essence Monster exploded with a bang, its flesh and blood flying everywhere.
"Well done. Cough cough, I can finally summon you. Your time of death … has come." Wu Yi's eyes, ears, mouth, and nose were all bleeding. He looked extremely terrifying. The excessive consumption of spiritual energy and the forceful summoning that exceeded his limits caused Wu Yi's body to quickly collapse. The strange thing was that the blood that flowed out of his body all turned into a bloody light and flowed towards the red crystal in his fist. In the end, the red crystal, which had absorbed enough blood and spiritual energy, emitted a demonic red light, dyeing a large area around it a bloody red.
The surrounding mercenaries all felt an indescribable fear in their hearts. The cowardly mercenaries' teeth started to tremble uncontrollably.
The mercenaries were all trembling as if they were in a world of ice and snow.
The powerful beast that Wu Yi had used his blood to summon for three whole minutes had finally been successfully summoned.
"Moo!"
A terrifying howl caused the Demon Bee that was circling above everyone's head to fall to the ground in fright. It trembled as it crawled, but it was actually unable to spread its wings and fly into the sky. Even though it was safely hiding inside the Light Barrier, the Spider Demoness couldn't resist its fear. It turned into a green light and automatically entered the Silver Grimoire, abandoning its master and escaping the battlefield.
Yue Yang saw that a giant bull with dark green skin and blood-red eyes had been summoned by Wu Yi.
The mercenaries were so scared that they all scattered in all directions. Not a single one of them dared to stay.
Even the warriors who were standing on the balconies of the Merry Forest High Building to watch the battle turned pale with fright. They cried out in fear, "Heavens, Wu Yi actually summoned a Bronze-ranked Barbaric Bull."
"Bronze-ranked Barbaric Bull?" Yue Yang curiously asked the bright-eyed thief, "Is this the legendary Barbaric Bull that has [Doom's Eyes]?"
