Chapter 364 One Slap

Qin Shaotian turned a bit pale. The girl went after his sore spot directly. How relentless.

The smile vanished from his face and coldness rose in his eyes. “You are coming here as a guest. Let me show you the rules a guest must follow!”

Yan Bingyue said nothing else as if not in the mood to win an argument. Since the two of them were having a “good talk,” the judge said the match would begin without further ado.

Hardly had the judge’s voice faded away when four swirls appeared behind Qin Shaotian. He had summoned all the battle pets that he had exposed to the public.

The Bloody Servant, the Lava Dragon, the Earthen Dragon, and the Nature Guardian!

Four towering figures emerged from the swirls and stood on the stage. They created an overwhelming pressure, so strong that people had to hold their breaths.

All of them were top-level battle pets!

The Bloody Servant was rare and had almost gone extinct. The other three were all at the ninth-rank as well. Having any of those pets would make a warrior be seen as more powerful than the competition. However, for Qin Shaotian, the three were merely his secondary pets!

The violent aura was tumbling. The Bloody Servant’s appearance was so hideous that people found it offending to the eyes.

Qin Shaotian mobilized his astral powers while surrounded by his battle pets. His dark hair danced in the air. He took a deep breath and another swirl opened up behind him.

Roar!!

Yet another dragon came out!

Wind-wing Dragon!

A ninth-rank battle pet that could reach the peak of the ninth-rank at the prime of its state!

Three dragons were standing behind Qin Shaotian, like three mountains that protected him. That view had stunned countless people into stillness.

A fierce wind was blowing. Many augmentation skills were cast over the dragons, the Bloody Servant, including Qin Shaotian himself.

That had been done by the Wind-wing Dragon, an improved version of the blast power. At this point, the seventh-rank Wind Siren that Qin Shaotian used before was not even qualified to join the fight. The Wind Siren didn’t have enough energy to sustain so many powerful battle pets at the same time. Only the Wind-wing Dragon had a large enough energy reserve to support all the pets.

Surrounded by the Wind Blessing, Qin Shaotian felt he was so light weighted that he could float off the ground at any time.

But that was not the end of his preparation. The Earthen Dragon and the Nature Guardian were casting their respective skills as well. In less than half a minute, Qin Shaotian was ready.

He was at the best of his state.

Yan Bingyue squinted.

There was a slight change on her face the moment the Bloody Servant appeared behind him, but that flashed past in a second. After Qin Shaotian got ready, she opened up three swirls and three battle pets came out, two of the demon family and one dragon.

That dragon was the fourth most powerful of all dragons, a Crystal Ocean Dragon!

That dragon was rare, a mutated dragon of the water family!

The two pets of the demon family were also powerful. One was a Hell Viper, with a body as tough as that of a dragon. Hell Vipers were skilled in close-quarter combat. The other one was a Nightmare Crafter; it was good at spiritual attacks and could reach the peak of the ninth rank.

Quickly, the stage was packed with top-level battle pets.

Silence reigned.

All of those battle pets were rarely seen and were actually on the same stage right then.

This was only the first battle of the day and it was more intense than anyone would have expected! Come on!

Qin Shaotian looked at her pets and squinted. He was a bit wary of that Crystal Ocean Dragon since it had an outstanding defense. Not even the Earthen Dragon could be as tough as the Crystal Ocean Dragon. It would be a much more difficult opponent if it had already mastered the many secret skills.

Without further thought, Qin Shaotian sent out the Bloody Servant and the Lava Dragon first.

Whoosh!

The Bloody Servant stirred up a foul wind as it dashed forward. Then, it suddenly contorted its body and disappeared into thin air.

The Lava Dragon charged toward its target, like a tank, and lava was boiling around it, leaving many holes on the ground. As the Lava Dragon ran, the ground was constantly changing under its feet.

Bang, bang!

The Lava Dragon breathed out some fireballs as a way to feel out its opponents.

The Crystal Ocean Dragon was glittering and translucent as if it were indeed carved out of crystal. This was a dragon of grandeur. The moment the fireballs were discharged, violent rage appeared in the dragon’s dark golden eyes. The dragon suddenly bellowed into the air!

Roar!!

That roar was intimidating and had a tangible effect. The fireballs were stopped in mid air and then crushed.

The next second, many sharp crystal blades came into being in front of the Crystal Ocean Dragon, like ten thousand arrows shot at once.

Many stone walls appeared in front of the Lava Dragon. That was thanks to the Earthen Dragon.

Right then, a shrill cry was heard. Qin Shaotian and his battle pets were frozen on the spot for a bit. The only one unaffected was the Bloody Servant.

Whoosh!

The Nightmare Crafter had just launched its skill when the Hell Viper came, crushing down the stone walls. Its first target was the Lava Dragon. Halfway through, the Bloody Servant jumped onto the Hell Viper and hurled out some sharp blades. Soon, the Hell Viper’s scales cracked and some cuts appeared.

The Bloody Servant robbed the Hell Viper of some of its dark energy as well.

The Hell Viper was alerted. It curled up and opened out its mouth, making some warning hisses.

All of that happened within an instant. Judging by the first round of attacks, Qin Shaotian and Yan Bingyue’s battle pets were tied. Actually, Qin Shaotian was at an advantage because the Blood Servant was the best when it came to close-range combat; it was a natural enemy to the Hell Viper.

Qin Shaotian had finally cleared his head after the impact of the Nightmare Crafter’s scream. He judged the situation, snorted, and issued another order.

Boom!

Vines crept out from the ground, turning the space behind Qin Shaotian into a dense forest where strange plants were growing out, such as flowers with spikes and twisting vines.

At the same time, part of the ground caved in ahead of the Lava Dragon. The lava coursed down its body and into the pit, instantly becoming a small lava pond.

Since those pets were at the eighth rank, changing the terrain was more than easy for them.

Roar!

The Lava Dragon stepped into the lava pond, making it boil. Many flaming arrows flew out from the pond toward Yan Bingyue.

A layer of frost-like substance appeared over the Nightmare Crafter and the Hell Viper’s skins. That was a skill of the Crystal Ocean Dragon, Crystal Shell.

With the help of the Crystal Shell, the Hell Viper remained unhurt by the flaming arrows pouring down.

Roar!

The Crystal Ocean Dragon roared. A layer of ice covered up the ground and many ice spears as thick as ten meters grew out of the ground; their aim was the Lava Dragon. While the two parties’ battle pets were hurling out all their skills, the judge had escaped to the highest point of the seal. The space inside the seal was shaking and trembling due to the pets clashing. All those skills were at the advanced rank, even the ninth rank. The audience was dazzled. The previous matches had always had one party with an overwhelming advantage. This was the first time they had seen a match where the two parties were exhausting each other with advanced skills. They watched with the utmost concentration and excitement.

Bravo!

What a marvelous battle!

On the stage, both Qin Shaotian and Yan Bingyue were standing there, waiting, while their battle pets roared and fought, as if the battle had nothing to do with the two of them.

They were generals, commanding their soldiers.

Both were aware that the glamourous fights were merely the appetizer.

“Bloody Servant, Specter Strangulation!”

Qin Shaotian suddenly squinted his eyes to hide the sudden appearance of killing intent.

Enough playing around. Time for the real deal!

The Bloody Servant was brawling with the Hell Viper. Instantly, the former threw out the sharp blades in its body, freeing itself from the Hell Viper’s entanglement, and at the same time, tearing off pieces of flesh from the reptile.

Whoosh!

The Bloody Servant broke free from the Hell Viper and then vanished like a puff of smoke.

In less than a second, Yan Bingyue suddenly turned around, only to see a ferocious figure crawling out from her shadow. It was the Bloody Servant!

It had run past the Hell Viper and the Crystal Ocean Dragon, directly popping out behind her!

Sneak attack!

The savage figure waved its sharp blades. The moment it crawled out from her shadow, the Bloody Servant had been ready to “hug” her.

Still, it seemed that Yan Bingyue was prepared. As she turned around, she mobilized astral powers and a strange pattern came into being in her hand. With a swishing sound, the sword in her hand began to shine with boundless radiance. Some sparkles appeared in the air. She managed to fend off all of the Bloody Servant’s sharp blades with her sword!

Qin Duhuang was taken aback by that sight.

The same could be said for the other family heads as well.

Did she manage to withstand a strike from the Bloody Servant with her physical strength and the sword?

The Bloody Servant was at the eighth-rank and was much more powerful than the Cyborg Pet. If the Cyborg Pet were to fight the Bloody Servant, the former would be torn into pieces within one move!

While people were still astonished, Yan Bingyue suddenly approached the Bloody Servant. Her dark eyes began to give out a purple glow and her pupils turned purple as well.

With a bang, she slapped the strange pattern on the Bloody Servant’s chest.

The pattern exploded.

“Halt,” she murmured.

The Bloody Servant felt a heavy load had lowered to its chest and then it heard how its bones were cracking. Because of that one slap, the Bloody Servant flew backward and smashed into the protective seal!

One slap and she knocked away the Bloody Servant!!!

That was soul-shattering. Countless people stood aghast, not daring to move.
