This match will probably be a bit tough. Judging by its body size alone, this Algae Dragon is clearly in the late Low-level stage. However, Electric counters Water, so Tingbao doesn't necessarily have to lose... Qiao Sang's brain analyzed at high speed.
Looking at his opponent in the distance, Tingbao continuously swished his tail against the ground to warm up, his expression no different from when facing his opponents in the previous two rounds.
The Algae Dragon, on the other hand, sized Tingbao up with a slightly raised chin, disdain in its eyes, and an utterly arrogant expression.
Noticing the opponent's gaze, Tingbao's face darkened, and the whipping motion of his tail grew significantly heavier.
"Be careful. This one is called Tingbao, a dual Dragon/Electric-type pet." A young man of about twenty wearing black-rimmed glasses spoke steadily, standing behind the Algae Dragon.
"Zao zao."
The disdain in the Algae Dragon's eyes vanished, replaced by a serious expression.
It clearly knew that the Electric attribute countered it.
In the spectator area.
The crowd looked at Section #23, where the two Dragon-type pets were battling, and began to discuss.
"Who do you think will win?"
"Little Thunder Dragon, most likely. It's not just a Dragon-type but also an Electric-type. In terms of offensive power, it's definitely a bit stronger."
"I'm backing the Algae Dragon. Look at its size, it's a whole circle bigger than Little Thunder Dragon. I bet that little Thunder Dragon only hatched from its egg not long ago."
"Don't underestimate that Little Thunder Dragon just because it's small, it already knows combination moves."
"The Algae Dragon has a higher chance of winning. Someone specifically analyzed it before, aside from a few Mid-level pets, the Algae Dragon is the strongest among the remaining competitors in this tournament."
"Agreed. And in this kind of tournament, it's not just about the pets, it also depends on the Beast Tamers commanding them. The Algae Dragon's Beast Tamer is named Di Shoucheng from the Deni Beast Taming Academy, and he's in the Beast Taming department. Little Thunder Dragon's Beast Tamer clearly looks like a high schooler, there's no comparison."
"Didn't they say the person who brought Tingbao to compete is a D-rank Beast Tamer?"
"That's news from two days ago, clearly fake. Someone specifically asked her yesterday, and she admitted herself that she isn't a D-rank Beast Tamer."
She's obviously not a D-rank, she's a B-rank... Mikayla corrected in her mind as she listened to the voices around her. Her expression remained unchanged, as if she hadn't heard a thing, as she kept her gaze on the field.
Amidst the discussions, the light-shadow of the number "3" appeared on the field.
Accompanied by a mechanical voice counting down.
In the corner, Little Treasure and Qingbao heard the sound of the match starting and turned their heads toward their Beast Tamer's direction. However, Little Treasure quickly turned back, continuing to explain the rules and precautions of the Ultimate High-level Pet Championship.
"Qing qing."
Qingbao similarly retracted her gaze, nodding earnestly as she listened to Little Treasure.
"Xun xun~"
Suddenly, Little Treasure clicked on the touchpad.
The content regarding the Ultimate High-level Pet Championship on the laptop screen instantly transformed into a travel guide map of Hasman.
"Xun xun~"
"Xun xun~"
Little Treasure grinned and called out twice: Once your competition is over, we can explore the area properly.
"Qing qing~"
Qingbao blanked out at first, then her eyes lit up, and she nodded her head.
At the same time, the matches on the field began.
Almost all the pets launched their attacks simultaneously.
Section #23.
Rows of yellow electrical arcs surfaced across Tingbao's body right away, converging into a thick bolt that struck down toward the Algae Dragon.
The Algae Dragon, which was opening its mouth to shoot a Water Gun, snapped its mouth shut, moved forward rapidly, and swayed its body slightly, easily dodging the incoming yellow lightning bolt.
"Mist." Di Shoucheng commanded decisively.
While moving rapidly, the Algae Dragon opened its mouth, and white mist surged forth, rapidly spreading across the field.
Mist, a Mid-level Normal-type skill. Sprays mist at the opponent to obscure their vision, thereby reducing the hit rate of the opponent's skills.
The white mist completely blocked Tingbao's vision, prompting him to observe his surroundings with vigilance.
At this moment, Qiao Sang opened her mouth and spoke: "Discharge to the left."
Tingbao put on a serious expression. Rows of yellow electrical arcs surfaced across his body, striking down in a concentrated blast toward the left.
Bang!
"Zao zao!"
A loud crash resounded, followed immediately by the Algae Dragon's painful shriek.
The white mist churned as the Algae Dragon flew backward out of it, tumbling heavily onto the ground.
How did she know the exact direction the Algae Dragon was in... Di Shoucheng's face turned grave.
As the Algae Dragon hit the ground, the mist scattered slightly. Seeing this scene clearly, the crowd erupted into clamor.
"Holy crap, what happened? I wasn't paying attention for a second and the Algae Dragon got hit?"
"No way, how on earth did Tingbao attack the Algae Dragon? I couldn't even see clearly from where I'm sitting."
"I heard it! It was the position called out by that contestant named Qiao Sang!"
"How did she know?"
Everyone was bewildered and utterly dumbfounded.
A battle between two Dragon-type pets was truly a rare sight even in past editions of the Contract Synergy Tournament, so the cameras had been focused on Field #23 right from the start.
In the guest panel area.
"Contestant Qiao Sang was actually able to locate the Algae Dragon's direction with such precision!" Fu Jian remarked with a face full of astonishment.
"Tie tie."
Tie Daoyi let out a call, displaying an appreciative expression.
Fyodor seemed to have realized something and blurted out in surprise:
"She judged the Algae Dragon's position based on the movement of the mist!"
Fu Jian blanked out for a moment: "The movement of the mist?"
Fyodor explained: "Mist can obscure one's own figure and the opponent's vision, but in reality, the Algae Dragon is still inside it. Moving around is bound to create air currents, and as long as there are air currents, the direction can be determined."
Fu Jian was somewhat shocked: "For Contestant Qiao Sang to observe things so minutely!"
"Tie tie." Tie Daoyi called out with a sigh of admiration.
"This Contestant Qiao Sang is far from simple." Fyodor summarized.
On Field #23.
Seeing that he had actually hit the opponent, Tingbao couldn't help but reveal an excited expression, holding back from crying out loud.
Its movement trajectory and the sound of its movement were way too clear... Qiao Sang couldn't help but comment internally.
Currently a B-rank Beast Tamer, combined with the hearing feedback provided by Yabao and the vision feedback provided by Lubao, she could hear the sound of the Algae Dragon moving in the mist and see the churning of the mist caused by its movement with absolute clarity.
In her eyes, the Algae Dragon's movement trajectory was practically no different from being completely visible.
"Discharge." Qiao Sang reined in her thoughts, preparing to follow up.
By now, the mist had dispersed considerably, making the Algae Dragon's figure clearly visible.
"Lei lei!"
Rows of yellow electrical arcs rapidly surfaced across Little Tingbao's body, concentrating into a bolt that struck down toward the Algae Dragon.
"Dodge!" Di Shoucheng shouted.
"Zao zao!"
Enduring the pain in its body, the Algae Dragon whipped its tail against the ground and leaped up forcefully, soaring to a height of roughly four meters to dodge the yellow lightning attack.
Immediately after, it opened its mouth and shot a silver-white beam roughly two centimeters thick directly toward Tingbao.
