Chapter 849 - 568: Inferior Horse vs Inferior Horse_2
"Alright, take your positions."
The referee stepped back a few paces, mainly leaning towards Liu Jisheng, and then pressed the button in his hand.
[Beep!]
[Beep!]
[Beep... Buzz!]
As the horn ended, Number 2 charged straight towards the opponent.
[Next year on this day will be your birthday!]
Its turbo surged fiercely.
"What nonsense."
A flash of determination passed through Liu Jisheng’s eyes, and he sent out a beam of light with his hand.
Whoosh!
The Summoner skill [Silence] hit Number 2 squarely on its face.
This [Silence] was somewhat different from the scarecrow’s flames, possessing a time-bound effect.
After hitting, for a period of time, neither the Summoner nor the summoned creature or the magical beast would be able to use skills.
[That hurts!]
However, being hit by [Silence] didn’t affect Number 2’s advancing speed at all.
Li Pu did not intend to let it self-destruct.
If this guy were truly to explode, he feared even the referee might not be able to save Liu Jisheng in time.
So without self-destructing, Number 2 only had one way left to win.
And that was to create a fatal blow to the opponent.
However, Li Pu overlooked one issue.
That Liu Jisheng’s personal combat skills were weak, but that was only relative.
It depends on whom he is compared to.
Compared to Li Pu or Chen Hualang, he’s almost like a speck of dust.
But compared to ordinary Summoners, Liu Jisheng isn’t bad.
He’s roughly at the level of full tree mind or ancient philosophers.
At the same time, Liu Jisheng also overlooked one problem.
That is... This mech head didn’t seem as formidable as imagined!
With this turbo propulsion speed, though it was strained, he could still evade it.
Even if he applied [Slowing] or [Frost], he could face it even more calmly.
Thus, a scene quickly unfolded on the field: Number 2 chased from behind, while Liu Jisheng ran ahead.
From time to time, he would turn back to throw a Silence or slowing effect.
They chased each other for over ten minutes, with Liu Jisheng’s stamina still abundant, and Number 2 relatively unharmed.
"Huff... Puff... Puff... Junior!"
"How about we call this round a draw!"
Amid heavy breathing, Liu Jisheng made the suggestion.
This mode didn’t seem like a solution.
"Miscalculated, huh."
Li Pu watched the scene, feeling slightly regretful.
Unexpectedly, Liu Jisheng had some skills of his own.
Dragging this on was not a solution, so he acknowledged the idea and agreed to the draw.
"Then, I’ll announce this round as a draw."
Once both parties reached a consensus, the referee teacher immediately announced.
"Whoa! Huff... Puff... Puff...!"
Upon hearing the announcement, Liu Jisheng immediately lay on the ground, gasping for air.
Embarrassing, utterly embarrassing.
Had he known, he might have agreed to his junior for a score lead right from the start.
Luckily, in the confrontation between his horse and the opponent’s horse, he didn’t lose, managing to secure at least a draw.
This way, both sides effectively reset the starting line, shifting from 6 rounds to 5, needing just 3 victories to decide the winner.
"Senior, which summoned creature will you deploy next?"
With that, Li Pu came over.
"..."
Liu Jisheng nearly choked on his breath.
This lame, truly shameless.
After being played in the opening, he was now alert.
"I went first last time, it’s your turn now, isn’t it?"
Thus, he proposed.
According to the rules previously set, the winner’s side should come up first out of fairness.
But this match was a draw, so Liu Jisheng’s proposal was reasonable.
"OK, sure."
Li Pu didn’t object, scanning his summoned creatures.
"Make the best of it."
He walked to the scarecrow, removing Bubble from its head.
[Cheep cheep?]
Bubble seemed surprised, not expecting to be chosen.
Blearily, it walked to the center of the arena, looking over at Liu Jisheng.
"This summoned creature..."
Seeing Bubble, Liu Jisheng’s eyebrows furrowed slightly.
Out of all Li Pu’s summoned creatures, the one he understood the least was this little kangaroo.
It had shown a few moves in previous rounds, not even as detailed as the intel provided.
"Given the circumstances, you should be the one to handle it."
Thinking it over, he decided to deploy Rainbow Fox.
[Caicai!]
The Rainbow Fox affectionately rubbed against his leg, then walked out elegantly.
Sending out the Rainbow Fox was because it is the most versatile among his summoned beasts.
It can attack, defend, weaken, and enhance, with quite a variety of tactics.
Of course, the most important reason is to send it out early, to avoid encountering the opponent’s ugly wolf later.
Liu Jisheng has fifty percent confidence that the Rainbow Fox would simply concede if it faces the little ugly wolf, and fifty percent confidence it might go easy and then concede.
In short, this springtime fox cannot meet the little ugly wolf.
Both sides’ summoned beasts were in position, and Liu Jisheng explained some tactics to the Rainbow Fox.
Li Pu, on the other hand, bent down, patted Bu Bu’s shoulder, and handed it a golden carrot, which was self-explanatory.
[Eat, eat, eat!]
Bu Bu’s eyes lit up, raising a small fist to indicate it would do its best.
Reluctant to finish the golden carrot in one go, it started nibbling it bit by bit.
[Beep!]
[Beep!]
[Beep...Buzz!]
As the referee pushed the button, the arena bell rang.
[Caicai!]
The Rainbow Fox seized the initiative, arching its back and firing the red off its body.
With the red detached, its seven colors became six.
That red light ribbon spun in mid-air, transforming into a fire pillar that rushed towards Bu Bu.
[Eat?]
Bu Bu, chewing its food, looked up, and then opened its mouth.
Whoosh!
The fire pillar went straight into its mouth, seemingly without any impact.
No, it did have an impact.
It became a bit happier.
[Eating!]
Bu Bu: Braised golden carrot, tastes great!
(The attack power of this fox isn’t weak, huh.)
Li Pu watched with arms crossed, understanding in his heart.
[Fire Swallowing]: Swallow flames, and temporarily gain corresponding burst abilities based on the strength of the flames.
He could plainly see that Bu Bu temporarily gained quite a bit of strength, indicating the opponent’s attack power was formidable.
[Caicai?!]
Seeing this scene, the Rainbow Fox got a little startled.
It knew that the elder usually loved chewing heads, but never expected it could even swallow flames.
Liu Jisheng: Caicai, try some other attack methods.
At this moment, Liu Jisheng’s voice resonated in its mind.
[Cai Cai Caicai!]
The Rainbow Fox acknowledged, arching its back once more.
Whoosh!
This time, it was a blue light ribbon, which turned into a large ice spike.
Just as the ice spike neared, Bu Bu, grasping the golden carrot, suddenly vanished with a flicker.
Clang!
The ice spike slammed into the empty arena floor and shattered into pieces.
Bu Bu, having used [Ghost Step] to dodge, dealt a surprise pouch punch.
[Eat you eat!]
An energy body flying kangaroo exploded into a light cluster.
Boom!
[Caicai Caicai!]
The Rainbow Fox, caught off guard standing in place, was coughing repeatedly due to the explosion smoke.
Indeed, it didn’t dodge.
Because Bu Bu’s throw was off target.
"..."
Li Pu wiped his forehead, realizing that this guy still hadn’t corrected its bad habit of lacking accuracy.
But without needing his guidance, Bu Bu, who mixed around everywhere all the time, had already summarized battle experience that suited itself.
Watching it hold the carrot in its mouth, then began digging with both hands.
A large number of blue light kangaroos danced wildly through the sky.
If precision is lacking, the quantity makes up for it.
[Caicai Caicai!]
The Rainbow Fox, assessing the dire situation, hurriedly emitted an orange light ribbon.
Unsure of the properties of the orange light ribbon, it swiftly transformed into numerous agile thin lights since leaving the body.
Each thin light accurately struck those blue light little kangaroos mid-air.
Boom! xN
Attacked prematurely, they exploded one after another.
Even Bu Bu’s secretly hidden dancing kangaroo ([Mysterious Chaotic Dance]) among the flying kick kangaroos ([Mighty Strike]) was neutralized in advance, failing to play its expected role.
Meanwhile, the previously lost red and blue colors of the Rainbow Fox returned to its body.
"Seems like encountered a worthy opponent."
Li Pu showed interest.
He wasn’t afraid of a prolonged battle because Bu Bu’s endurance capability was impeccable.
