Chapter 23: Instant Kill! Catch Him Off-guard
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Looking at the drowsy Flame Owl lying on Shen Fei’s shoulder, the contempt in Zhang Youcheng’s eyes became even more intense!
Initially, a Page-rank spirit beast was already insulting enough. And now, it was even sleeping!
The audience present also looked at Shen Fei with derision.
With his talent class, how could he have the nerve to ask them to rush him all at once?
‘Looks like he was just bluffing. As soon as the spirit beast was summoned, it immediately revealed its true nature!’
“Do you have any other spirit beasts?” Zhang Youcheng was so bored that he yawned. “This kind of ordinary pet can’t last more than a second before my Frost Wolf King. If you want to fight, you should at least get a better one.”
Even the Frost Wolf King, which was full of fighting spirit a moment ago, relaxed its fighting stance after seeing the Flame Owl, lazily sweeping its tail. The Frost Wolf King did not even bother to look at such an opponent.
“Forget it. Your spirit beast is going to die anyway, so I’ll give you a chance to try and struggle before your death.” With a wave of Zhang Youcheng’s hand, the Frost Wolf King obediently sat down.
“I’m much stronger than you. So, to keep things fair, I’ll let you have the first three moves!”
Zhang Youcheng proudly crossed his arms and looked at Shen Fei with eyes full of ridicule.
“I don’t want others to say that I’m bullying you because my spirit beast’s rank is higher!”
A burst of laughter came from the audience.
“Zhang Youcheng, don’t worry about that. Just beat him up!”
“That’s right. Since he’s asking for it, then fulfill his wish!!”
Shen Fei ignored them and shook his arm. In an instant, the Flame Owl on his shoulder spread its wings and flew towards the Frost Wolf King.
“Hoot!”
Less than a second after it took off, the Flame Owl’s round body dropped like a deadweight.
In the next moment, it would dive nosefirst into the ground...
“Hoot, hoot!”
The Flame Owl flapped its wings with great effort, struggling back into the air, and using a lot of strength to fly again. Its movements were full of hiccups...
“It can’t be...”
As Shen Fei’s opponent, Zhang Youcheng was the first to laugh.
“I thought your Flame Owl was just a little bad. I didn’t expect it to be a piece of trash that can’t even fly! It’s quite suitable for a good-for-nothing like you!”
The audience fell silent after watching the Flame Owl’s performance.
“You should’ve fed your Flame Owl less. It’s so fat it can’t even fly!”
“I’m dying of laughter. It can’t even fly. I really don’t know how he chose this one.”
“Poor thing. It’s better to stay in the beast breeding tower than follow such a master.”
“Too pitiful...”
Watching the Flame Owl’s clumsiness, Aloy could not help but rub her eyes. The Flame Owl’s performance just now really surprised her. Aloy’s heart was in her throat.
‘A Marquis-rank spirit beast shouldn’t be unable to fly steadily, right? Could I have misjudged him just now? That shouldn’t be the case.’
Aloy frowned, her eyes fixed on the Flame Owl.
‘There must be something wrong with this Flame Owl!’
...
In the arena, Shen Fei’s expression turned strange.
‘This little fellow is an even better actor than me!’
Seeing the Flame Owl trying its best to act weak, Shen Fei could not help but laugh. He felt much more at ease now!
At this time, the Frost Wolf King had completely lowered its vigilance against the Flame Owl. It even lazily laid on the floor of the arena, wagging its tail in boredom.
Seeing the Flame Owl’s failed attempt to fly over, the Frost Wolf King yawned in disdain and turned its head away, not even wanting to look at it.
In Zhang Youcheng’a mind, the cogwheels seemed to be turning, but slowly.
The Flame Owl did not have many innate skills. Other than spitting fireballs and casting a fire barrier, it did not know anything else. So what if he lets Shen Fei have three moves? He would not be able to kill the Frost Wolf King in one hit anyway!
But the moment the Flame Owl flew toward them, before Zhang Youcheng could react, the once lazy Frost Wolf King’s expression suddenly changed!
It actually felt a powerful ancient pressure from the Flame Owl! The terrifying aura made the Frost Wolf King raise its four limbs in a panic, trying to stand up and escape.
“Whine!”
However, before it could stand up, the Frost Wolf King howled in pain. The moment it stood up, its body lost all strength, and the wolf could only lie on the ground, motionless.
As for the audience, no one noticed the abnormality of the Frost Wolf King.
“What happened to his Frost Wolf King?”
“I don’t know. Maybe he’s giving Shen Fei the three first moves.”
“Zhang Youcheng is really too gentlemanly...”
Even Zhang Youcheng himself had not noticed the Wolf King’s abnormality!
“Hoot, hoot!”
The Flame Owl flapped its wings and flew steadily in the air. It turned around elegantly, and its round body instantly became more slender.
Sure enough, the previous round form it adopted was just an illusion!
In the stands, Aloy heaved a sigh of relief. She knew that it was not that simple!
“Hoot, hoot!”
The Flame Owl’s chest expanded rapidly as if it was blowing air. It flapped its wings and a hot fireball flew towards the Frost Wolf King!
The fireball melted all the frost in its way.
“Not good! Frost Wolf King, stand up!”
It was only at this moment that Zhang Youcheng realized that something was wrong. He instantly panicked and hurriedly executed his innate talent, summoning a huge ice shield in front of the Frost Wolf King!
However, the fireball easily penetrated the ice shield and hit the Frost Wolf King’s body!
“Howl!”
The Frost Wolf King howled in pain. The thick fur on its body was instantly covered in crimson fire.
“Howl!!!”
The Frost Wolf King was being burned to the ground as it rolled around. But no matter how it tries, the flames on its body did not show any signs of extinguishing!
The audience closed their eyes when they saw this tragic scene.
“Frost Wolf King!” Zhang Youcheng’s face instantly turned deathly pale.
This was a spirit beast that the clan had painstakingly found for him! If it were to die, they would probably not be able to find a second one for decades!
He kept using his talent, creating more ice to put out the fire. But every time he used it, the frost would be swallowed by the fire on the Wolf King’s body.
‘How did it become like this?!’
Zhang Youcheng’s mind was in chaos, and he could only watch as the Frost Wolf King was swallowed by the flames.
Everyone in the audience stared at the ball of fire that was still burning. Everything that happened just now was too sudden. Some people did not even have time to react to what was going on before the tables were turned.
Everyone stared nervously at the burning flame. The fire continued to burn for a few minutes.
‘Could the spirit beast inside be cooked?’
“Guh!” Zhang Youcheng spent a Herculean effort to put out the flames on the Frost Wolf King’s body. However, the Frost Wolf King had been completely roasted from the inside out!
In an instant, the entire place fell silent.
