Beast taming, starting from zero point-Chapter 950 - 771: Yaobao vs Steel Giant Dragon (Two-in-One)_3
Chapter 950: Chapter 771: Yaobao vs Steel Giant Dragon (Two-in-One)_3
Her brain was working at lightning speed, and in an instant, she understood why Apollo had already said "ground" twice even before Yaobao teleported to the ground.
It was all because she had first mentioned the word "Purgatory."
Even if she didn’t fully state the name of the skill "Magma Purgatory," an experienced Professional Beast Tamer could deduce the skill’s point of origin from just a few key words.
And Apollo was precisely that kind of Professional Beast Tamer.
He was far stronger than any opponent she had faced before... Stay calm, there’s still a chance... Qiao Sang took a deep breath, steadying her nerves.
Her gaze pierced through the dense rain of fire, locking onto the Steel Giant Dragon whose figure seemed shrouded in a glowing layer of light.
At this moment, the commentator’s passionate voice rang out:
"Oh! Apollo has preemptively predicted Flame Kiru’s location! The Steel Giant Dragon’s Dragon’s Pulse has successfully struck Flame Kiru!"
The arena erupted with cheers and commotion.
"Apollo’s prediction is just too precise!"
"Amazing! How did he even guess that Flame Kiru would teleport to the ground?!"
"Incredible! No wonder he’s the four-time reigning champion of the Pet Beast Arena Championship!"
"The Steel Giant Dragon is insane! It managed to hit a teleporting Pet Beast even under the Mars Rain’s assault!"
Qiao Sang’s ears couldn’t catch any of these sounds.
To be precise, her attention was too focused, causing her to instinctively block out all the surrounding noise.
She saw the Mars Rain continuously exploding upon the Steel Giant Dragon, and the ground beneath its feet sinking deeply. Its body was trembling minutely.
The Mars Rain was indeed taking effect against the Steel Giant Dragon! Qiao Sang’s eyes lit up, and she shouted:
"Yaobao!"
It wasn’t just a shout; it was a cry of exhilaration.
"Ya!"
A beam of fire suddenly burst forth!
How could this happen—despite taking the Dragon’s Pulse head-on, its state seemed even stronger than before... The fire-filled sky partly obstructed Apollo’s vision, leaving him with the fleeting impression of a beast wreathed in flames charging directly at him.
Fierce fire! It’s Fierce fire! Apollo felt a chill in his heart, realizing that the match had reached its critical moment.
As long as he could withstand this wave, once Fierce fire’s effect expired, Flame Kiru would certainly fall into an exhausted state!
"Explode!"
"Steel Steel!"
With a loud cry following its Beast Tamer’s command, the Steel Giant Dragon roared, its body suddenly radiating a brilliant white light.
Next, the white light condensed around it into countless tiny white points.
Metal Explosion, a high-level steel-type skill, reflects the damage from the latest attack back to the opponent with tremendous force. Its power was immense, but—it’s not a ranged attack... Qiao Sang’s heartbeat quickened as she shouted:
"Keep going!"
Keep going, continuing the unfinished assault.
No one else might have understood, but Yaobao immediately grasped its Beast Tamer’s intentions.
Just as the Steel Giant Dragon’s white light points were clustering, the advancing flames rushing at it abruptly disappeared and materialized a hundred meters away.
Apollo was caught off guard, momentarily stunned by this unexpected maneuver.
Wasn’t it said that a Pet Beast provoked into Fierce fire mode would typically enter a berserk state and engage in direct combat? Why, then, would it be so calm as to pull back and distance itself?
Wait a moment! Flame Kiru isn’t dodging Metal Explosion—it’s preparing for an attack!
But by the time Apollo realized this, it was already too late.
"Boom boom boom!"
The white light points surrounding the Steel Giant Dragon expanded into eight-meter-long beams that shot outward in all directions. Explosions erupted one after another with deafening blasts.
Several beams collided with the Mars Rain, generating even more intense shockwaves.
Simultaneously, Yaobao, its entire body ablaze, grinned ferociously, its expression brimming with excitement.
Its right forelimb stomped forcefully downward, and thick, scalding, dark red magma instantly erupted from beneath its feet! The entire battlefield was quickly overtaken!
The radiant crimson light resembled the depths of purgatory, unstoppable, and terrifying.
The surging magma, like a roaring red tide, swept over the Steel Giant Dragon entirely from head to toe.
"Steel Steel!!!"
The Steel Giant Dragon let out the most harrowing cry of its life.
Meanwhile, the Mars Rain continued to fall.
With fire pouring from the heavens like a torrential downpour and magma engulging the earth like a hellish purgatory, the entire battlefield transformed into a forbidden land.
In this moment, everyone’s minds went blank, mouths hanging open in unconscious shock, their faces frozen in disbelief.
Even Apollo.
"Steel Steel!!!"
The Steel Giant Dragon howled in agony as the Steel Wall it had maintained throughout the match abruptly vanished.
Boiling magma surged beneath it, while fire continued to rain down on it, exploding unrelentingly.
Struggling and roaring, the Steel Giant Dragon writhed until finally, with an earth-shattering "boom," it collapsed entirely, motionless.
Silence, a deathly silence.
M-Magma Purgatory?!
Apollo’s expression was a mix of shock and bewilderment.
So when Qiao Sang mentioned "Purgatory" earlier—was it referring to the super-level skill, Magma Purgatory?
At this point, the Mechanical Beast Referee blew the whistle signaling the end of the match.
The commentator, as if jolted awake, swallowed hard and took a deep breath before enthusiastically shouting: "Let’s congratulate Qiao Sang for winning the first match!"
The arena remained quiet.
"Ya..."
Yaobao’s flames dissipated, and its body wobbled slightly.
Then, stabilizing its posture, it puffed out its chest and raised its head slightly, making sure to flaunt its hairstyle prominently for all to see.
