Chapter 249 - 245: Holy Light Angel
As Gu Shan was doing his utmost to regain his strength, the blond youth suddenly walked onto the stage, saying, “I underestimated you, the dual talent user, by only sending out a Third Stage Beast Master.”
“To express my apology, I’ll personally participate in the second round.”
“My name is Dean Berg, please advise.”
Watching the polite Dean, who didn’t seem like he was here to fight at all, Gu Shan, who was not good at socializing, was firstly stumped, then his expression became serious. He summoned all his pets, standing ready for battle.
A Four Stage Beast Master couldn’ t be dealt with using the same tactics as in a fight with Zhang Kai. With his third-stage power, Gu Shan only had a chance if he gave it his all.
“Gu Shan is going to lose.”
At the sight of Dean entering the field, Bai Qiucha suddenly sighed, while Xiao Yuan, who was also in the know, had a regretful look on his face.
“Is this Dean very strong?”
Bai Qiucha nodded, saying, “The Bo Ge family was an old family before joining the Federation, with a history only slightly shorter than the Bai Family. Most significantly, their family has a mythical species pet lineage.”
“Three geniuses of the Bo Ge family’s current generation have each contracted a mythical level pet, and this Dean is the strongest among the three.”
Saying this, Bai Qiucha paused before saying, “Bai Qi, you should also be careful. Lilith, from your group, is one of these three.”
“Mythical species pets huh…”
Bai Qi smacked his lips. Indeed, being born into such a privileged circumstance was impressive. The starting point was already at the mythical species, but he had the Evolution Egg, so he wasn’t envious.
Well, let’s see if he could procure some tissue from it later. Maybe he could also paste it onto his own pets, perhaps they would gain mythical bloodline too.please visit ” sitestorys(.)c0m ” maybe y0u will enj0y the captivating sh0rt st0ries.
While Bai Qi and the others were talking, Dean had also summoned his pet. The moment that the pet appeared, the entire arena was cloaked in a dazzling white light, so bright that people couldn’t open their eyes.
When the white light dissipated, there was still nothing in front of Dean, but Gu Shan’s six pets had lost their ability to fight. On the backs of the six pets, all of them bore palm-shaped burn marks.
Seeing this scene, Bai Qiucha, and the others all had serious expressions on their faces.
Perhaps others didn’t see clearly, but they saw it clearly.
In the moment when Dean’s pet appeared, it attacked Gu Shan’s six pets, almost simultaneously defeating them.
The mythical species, indeed terrifying.
“Was that thing just now, a bird-man?”
Bai Qi also saw the whole process of Dean’s second kill of Gu Shan, but the form of Dean’s pet left him somewhat surprised.
With its pure white wings and body cloaked in a holy white light, it looked almost exactly like the angels of Bai Qi’s previous life.
“Bird man? You’re not wrong, Dean’s pet is indeed of angel bloodline. Even though it doesn’t have the divine power from the myths, it’s indeed strong.” Xiao Yuan laughed and said, “But you absolutely cannot mention this in front of the Bo Ge family, or else they will definitely keep it against you.”
“After all, while the Bo Ge family calls their pet an ‘angel’, it’s only similar in appearance, different in essence.”
A real angel is a genuine mythical creature. If the Bo Ge family owned one, they wouldn’t say the Federation, even the Ferocious Beast Tribe could not stand against the Bo Ge family.
“No problem.”
Bai Qi solemnly patted his chest, then turned his attention to Dean.
An Angel of the Holy Light series, perhaps it could help Gamma acquire light resistance in advance?
This might be worth a try…
“But with Dean’s attack so fast, can Li Mu win?”
With Gu Shan losing, the pressure fell on Li Mu, who was in the same group as Gu Shan, if even Li Mu couldn’t defeat the opponent, they might get a straight loss?
“Hard to say, Li Mu tends to be more defensive and counterattacks, but Dean’s Holy Light Angel is terrifying in both speed and attack power. I’m not sure if Li Mu can withstand it.”
Bai Qiucha shook her head, a hint of worry in her eyes.
Li Mu’s Sand Land Dragon was just an ordinary pet, compared to her “Bone Dragon” or Dean’s “Holy Light Angel”, there existed an intrinsic gap. Unless Li Mu could figure out a way to solve the Holy Light Angel’s speed, he would end up as a punching bag.
As expected, in the face of the formidable Dean, Li Mu stepped forward and directly summoned the Sand Land Dragon. Dean seemed to recognize that Li Mu was different from the others and also summoned his Holy Light Angel. Watching the tall figure behind Dean, cloaked in the Holy Light, Li Mu’s face became serious. After hearing Leng Feifei’s command to start, he took the initiative to launch an attack.
Following a roar from the Sand Land Dragon, yellow sand roiled around in the arena. He obviously intended to claim the geographical advantage first.
“Kao, go!”
Watching the increasingly raging sand in front of him, Dean’s face remained indifferent. The Holy Light Angel disappeared on the spot the moment Dean issued the command. When it reappeared, it formed a striking figure in front of the Sand Land Dragon.
“So fast!”
This thought flashed through all spectators’ minds. Before they had time to be surprised, they saw the Sand Land Dragon being flung backwards, a massive scorch mark visible on its large body.
Could such speed and strength truly belong to a four-stage creature?
The crowd exchanged glances while the first group of Federation students looked even heavier, seeing no hope for victory.
“The Bo Ge family has truly bred an array of talents over the years. Not only have they joined the council, but even their Beast Masters in the Thirteenth Bureau are exemplary, aren’t they?”
Watching the Holy Light Angel effortlessly repel the Sand Land Dragon, Zhao Futu had a strange smile on his face. Wang Jian, seemingly oblivious to Zhao Futu’s implication, nodded and replied, “After all, they are a long-established grand family. It’s not surprising that they can nurture such talents.”
“That’s true, but I wonder if they are still the same as their ancestors…”
Thinking of something, Zhao Futu’s aura gradually became cold. Wang Jian, who had been listless the whole time, slowly opened his eyes and looked towards the recovering Sand Land Dragon in the arena. He remarked, “It seems this fight will be a bit more intense.”
“Hopefully.”
Zhao Futu smiled faintly and refocused his attention on the competition.
The Sand Land Dragon, punched into a shambling retreat by the Holy Light Angel, managed to clumsily get back to its feet. Its thick sand shell slowly fell away, revealing an unharmed body while summoning layers of sand around it again to encase the Holy Light Angel.
“Not bad. You managed to defend yourself the instant the Holy Light Angel launched a surprise attack.”
Dean chuckled lightly, asking, “But can you block this?”
After his words, Dean snapped his fingers. Kao, the Holy Light Angel, pulled his hands in the void, condensing a sword of light, and launched another attack on the Sand Land Dragon.
The attack had the same terrifying speed as before, but this time the Sand Land Dragon, having been prepared and sensing the movement of the Holy Light Angel, turned to sand and dodged the attack, meanwhile manipulating the surrounding sand to disturb the Holy Light Angel repeatedly.
As a mythical creature of the Holy Light series, the Holy Light Angel possessed exceptional healing power. Small injuries wouldn’t affect it.
Therefore, Li Mu did not resort to futile attacks; instead, he kept harassing from the periphery in search of an opportunity to strike a deadly blow.
However, Dean did not seem interested in battling with Li Mu. Finding that the Sand Land Dragon’s true body was hard to locate, he suddenly paused his movements. Spreading his wings, a dazzling white light reappeared. The surrounding sand was instantly burned into a crystal, and the figure of the Sand Land Dragon was revealed again.
Yet Li Mu seemed unflustered. He issued a series of commands, and the sand under the Holy Light Angel formed complex runes. The surrounding crystals, under the control of the Sand Land Dragon, fused together to form a massive crystal cage, forcing the Holy Light Angel towards the ground runes.
Simultaneously, these runes extended towards the sky as if they were alive. The moment they touched the cage, the frail-looking cage blocked the Holy Light Angel’s attack.
“Solidifying, guiding, reflecting… battle runes?”
Looking at the strategy Li Mu employed, Bai Qi felt a sense of familiarity.
Wasn’t this the strategy he used in the intercity joint exams? The difference was that he used a bone cage while Li Mu illustrated a sand crystal cage.
“So the laid-back attitude shown earlier was all about preparing these runes.”
After successfully taking control of the Holy Light Angel, Li Mu started to prepare his abilities serenely. This tactical move revived some confidence among the Federation students.
“I thought it was some trump card. Turns out to be runes?”
Witnessing the yellow sand, under the control of the Sand Land Dragon, rising higher and higher, Dean’s face bore a hint of disappointment. He said, “Kao, Purification Spear.”
Following Dean’s command, the Holy Light Angel halted its act of hacking at the cage, formed a throwing gesture, and a lance gleaming with a gentle light appeared in the Angel’s hand.
Whoosh!
The Holy Light Angel threw the lance with force, and it flew out at a horrifying speed. Wherever the light of the lance passed, both the crystal cage and the sandstorm were rapidly disintegrated and disappeared. Before the Sand Land Dragon could dodge, it was punctured by the light lance.
Aooo…
The Sand Land Dragon, writhing with pain, reverted to its original form and fell from the sky. A large wound appeared on its abdomen, revealing the scorched flesh inside. There was not even a drop of blood, but it was evident to discerning eyes that the Sand Land Dragon no longer had the ability to fight.
“The Purification Spear, it can even hit the Sand Land Dragon in its sand state and cause damage? That’s kind of offside.”
Bai Qi looked intently at the Holy Light Angel in the field. In the face of such an attack, even Bai Qi began to question Gamma’s defense. He really couldn’t guarantee that Gamma could fend it off without resisting light.
Indeed, the mythical species weren’t merely for show.
Bai Qi rubbed the fluff on his chin, his eyes gleaming with intense anticipation.
Once the training ended, he’d find a way to obtain a mythical bloodline and attach it to his own pets.
No, he would attempt to slice off a piece or two of the creature during the major competition. Maybe he would secure the mythical bloodline directly.
Yes, that’s settled!
