Chapter 58 - 58 Cheating In The Duel
58 Cheating In The Duel
Shen Fei frowned. “Can he be judged as cheating for doing this in a duel?”
This competition looked very unfair. Who would, in the middle of a duel, suddenly take out a new set of equipment and give it to their spirit beast when they felt that their spirit beast was not able to keep up?
“If this is equipment that you prepared in advance, of course it doesn’t count. But that equipment is a derivative of Zhang Youcheng’s Frost Walker ability, so it’s considered a part of his talent.”
Aloy cleared her throat and looked helplessly at the Ice Ghost in the air.
“As long as it’s related to talent, it’s not against the rules. He’s completely in line with the requirements of the match.”
“So it’s like that...” Shen Fei nodded his head.
So what if Zhang Youcheng had given his spirit beast new equipment midway? How could a set of ice armor make up for the difference in strength between the two spirit beasts?
“You don’t have to worry about the Flame Owl’s skills! Just spit fire directly at his face!” When Shen Fei finished speaking, a ball of raging flames ignited on the chest of the Flame Owl.
The flame continued to linger in the chest of the Flame Owl, and the temperature rose sharply!
“This is a good opportunity, Ice Ghost!” Zhang Youcheng looked at Shen Fei with excitement.
‘This idiot, he probably doesn’t know about the Ice Ghost’s special skill!’
He could take advantage of this opportunity to let him have a taste of his power!
“Ice Ghost, use Ghostly Freeze!” The moment Zhang Youcheng gave the order...
...Ice Ghost’s movements suddenly stopped. It stood there blankly, a thin layer of white frost covering his body, as if it was waiting for something.
But the Flame Owl would not give it the chance to wait. It flapped its wings, and the heat energy all over its body gathered in its abdomen. The fiery heat energy in the air was immediately sucked in by the Flame Owl, and mixed together in its abdomen, forming a bright spot of light. The light continued to move up its abdomen and gradually reached its throat.
The Flame Owl circled around the Ice Ghost.
At the moment, it was looking for a suitable opportunity to launch a surprise attack on the Ice Ghost!
‘Now!’
The Flame Owl’s eyes suddenly turned sharp. It opened its mouth wide and spat a strong pillar of flames directly at the Ice Ghost. Wherever the flames went, the ice melted and the earth cracked!
‘Heh heh.’ The corners of Zhang Youcheng’s mouth curled up. ‘Does he really think that this move would be effective against my Ice Ghost? In your dreams!’
“Now’s the time. Ice Ghost, let him have a taste of your power!”
The moment Zhang Youcheng gave his command, the Ice Ghost’s eyes snapped open.
At the sight of the pillar of fire that was roaring toward it, the Ice Ghost’s face did not show the slightest bit of fear. Instead, it took the initiative to reach out and touch the pillar of fire!
In the next moment, the blazing pillar of fire actually began to freeze! The burning flames slowed down bit by bit, and the original fiery red color quickly turned into a cold blue.
Very quickly, the pillar of fire that was being controlled by the Flame Owl turned into an ice pillar that emitted a cold aura!
“This is...” Shen Fei frowned. This was the first time he had seen such a unique skill.
“Hahaha, this is why I specifically chose this spirit beast to deal with you!” When Zhang Youcheng saw Shen Fei’s expression, he seemed very smug. “Why else do you think I chose such a strange spirit beast?”
The Ice Ghost shook its head smugly. It picked up the ice pillar and threw it at the Flame Owl.
“Coo, coo!” The Flame Owl’s body flashed, and it flapped its wings, calmly dodging the attack.
Shen Fei’s expression did not change as he continued to speak to the Flame Owl, “Don’t worry, Flame Owl, continue to attack him with the same method.”
Even if its skill could block fire attacks, so what? Within a certain period of time, the spirit beast should only be able to use each skill a limited number of times. After a spirit beast reaches that number, it would become exhausted, and then it would no longer be able to use skills again for a long time.
“I know what you’re thinking.” Zhang Youcheng looked at Shen Fei arrogantly. “You think I didn’t consider that, huh? Wrong! I’ve already thought of it!”
At this point, he suddenly snapped his fingers. Many ice pillars suddenly formed around the previously unremarkable breeding institute’s interior.
“Do you know what these crystal pillars are, Shen Fei? This is a special cooling mechanism I used for my beloved Frost Wolf King when it used to rest here...”
Zhang Youcheng’s voice fell at the mention of his previous spirit beast.
Many small holes suddenly appeared on the surrounding ice pillars, continuously releasing bone-chilling cold air. In an instant, the Ice Ghost, which had been slightly dispirited after using its skill, became as lively as a bull. In fact, it was even more energetic than before!
“Your Flame Owl killed my Frost Wolf King before. Today, my Ice Ghost will kill your Flame Owl here! A blood debt must be paid with blood!”
At the mention of the spirit beast that had once accompanied him, Zhang Youcheng’s face immediately turned malevolent.
“Stop, Zhang Youcheng!” Aloy grimaced. “You’ve completely violated the rules of the match. It is forbidden to use anything other than your innate talent to assist a spirit beast in battle!”
“Hahahahaha. Aloy, you’re thinking is too simple,” Zhang Youcheng said to her triumphantly, “This isn’t an open arena. This is my private beast breeding institute!” Zhang Youcheng’s face hardened as he fiercely said to Aloy, “I’ll do whatever I want, I don’t need your guidance!”
After saying this, Zhang Youcheng suddenly took out a remote control and resolutely turned the cooling power to the maximum. A cold and sobering billow swept through the entire arena.
“Hiss...”
‘This guy’s completely nuts!’ Shen Fei wrapped his arms around himself and constantly rubbed his hands together.
He did not kill the Frost Wolf King on purpose. It was normal for accidents to happen in the arena. Every Beastmaster understood this.
Why did he always find himself in such situations?
Shen Fei’s body shivered and he wrapped his clothes even more tightly around himself. With the room this cold, he could barely endure it!
‘My Flame Owl needs to be faster. Let’s end this battle as soon as possible!’
“Coo, coo!” The Flame Owl flapped its wings and flew into the air. Its fighting spirit was still blazing!
‘It can’t go on like this!’ Aloy quickly took off her coat and looked worriedly at the glass cage that was gradually being covered up by the snow. ‘If this continues, then it would just come down to whose spirit beast has the stronger fighting spirit! But this is a feud between men! And Shen Fei’s wearing so little in this cold temperature. He definitely won’t last long inside!’
She had to stop this battle as soon as possible! Aloy looked at the spirit beasts that were stuck in the glass cage in the distance.
Zhang Youcheng was currently preoccupied by the battle before him and had no time to care about her.
This was a good opportunity!
Aloy seized her chance and rushed toward the glass cage in the distance!
