Chapter 345: Chapter 341: Magma Hellhound

Finally, the electric light dissipated, and the spatial ripples gradually smoothed out. Delta and Sun Hui’s figures finally appeared before everyone.

“So, how did it end?”

Zhuge Chen looked curiously towards the stage, but Zhuge Xu managed to guess something from the expressions of the masters around him, a faint smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.

“Ah~ I was thinking about going back and mocking Guan Qing, but turns out I lost too.”

Sun Hui looked at his right hand trembling ceaselessly, even struggling to hold his spear tightly, and he sighed helplessly.

Never mind Delta, whose basic attributes were comparable to those of a King creature, his attacks under the Void Resonance State were somewhat difficult to resist. Even though he had the physical constitution comparable to a ferocious beast under the combined form of his Broken Thunder Spear, he still felt like his arm muscles were about to be torn apart.

“I lost.”

Sun Hui helplessly shook his head, looking at the panting Delta opposite him, feeling his own energy value that was also virtually depleted, and conceded directly.

Unlike the previous match where Guan Qing and Gamma still had some allowance for one another, his and Delta’s energy values had been mostly consumed, continuing on would probably not affect the Broken Thunder Spear and nor Delta much, but he, the Beastmaster, might have to suffer some internal injuries.

“Thank you for your mercy.”

Bai Qi gave Sun Hui a nod of acknowledgement, then summoned Delta back, immediately tossing a platinum egg into his Beast Control Space.

Different from Gamma’s explosive attack, Delta was genuinely using his own ability to withstand a King creature. If there was a somewhat overpowered ability, it was probably the significant increase obtained under the Void Resonance State.

The advantages of the Space Department were indeed quite potent.

“Um, masters, we’ve already had two battles, shall we take a break?”

Seeing Bai Qi defeating two fifth stage Beastmasters in a row, and moreover, overcoming with the weaker, Zhuge Xu felt extremely delighted.

Although it wasn’t a victory obtained using the mainstream undead creatures from the Wuhou Dojo, just winning already meant enough – once they got through this, the Wuhou Corporation would have enough time to recruit powerful students and instructors to fill the vacancies in the mid and lower levels.

“No rush, our Yanhuo Dojo hasn’t challenged yet.”

Cao Bin shook his head, looked at a man behind him, and said, “Cao Lie, you go.”

“Okay.”

The man named Cao Lie nodded, silently walked to the opposite station, didn’t say a word, just silently summoned his beast.

A huge dog made of magma.

[Name]: Magma Hellhound.

[Nature]: Fire attribute.

[Bloodline Level]: Mid-Level King.

…

The moment the Magma Hellhound appeared, the surrounding air instantly became dry, the stage underfoot slowly cracked, and the slow-flowing magma below could be seen faintly.

“He changed the attribute of the field as soon as he started, this guy is not easy to deal with.”

Bai Qi’s expression turned serious, looked at the ferocious Magma Hellhound, pondered for a moment, then decided on the corresponding beast, and summoned the Husky.

“Arctic Ice Wolf? No, is it a product of Armament Evolution?”

As the celebrity spokesperson of Elf House, the image of Bai Qi’s Alpha and Husky had long been ingrained in people’s hearts, so the surrounding audience recognized Husky’s identity at a glance, but they were soon looked down upon by the people around them.

“Dude, don’t you have internet at your home? This is Bai Qi’s unique Arctic Ice Wolf evolution – Valley-breaking Mechanical Wolf.”

“But didn’t I remember that the Valley-breaking Mechanical Wolf has two heads? That one seems to have three.”

“It seems so, and why do I feel like this Wolf’s aura seems to be no weaker than the Magma Hellhound?”

Looking at Husky, who was not losing to the Magma Hellhound in either size or momentum, the audience was curious, while Duanmeng quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

This kid finally decided to summon a King creature for battle.

“Cao Lie, Yanhuo Dojo fifth stage Beast Master. Beast: King-level Magma Hellhound.”

“Bai Qi, Wuhou Dojo fifth stage Beast Master. Beast: King-level Good and Evil Judges.”

As soon as Bai Qi’s voice fell, the people around were immediately exclaiming.

It turned out to be a King-level creature; the Arctic Ice Wolf’s limit was unexpectedly high.

However, the surprise of the crowd lasted only for an instant, and was soon replaced by stunned expressions.

Arf! Arf!

(Let me go, I want to have a duel with that stinky snake!)

A gray snake was slithering on Husky’s body, no matter how Beta tried to get it off, it couldn’t.

“These two fools, why are they so noisy?”

Bai Qi’s forehead was throbbing, suppressing the impulse to go down and beat the two, but the Cowskin Snake was the first to notice the abnormality around them, gracefully evading Beta’s secret attack, directly hiding behind Bai Qi.

“Are you guys in a battle? Such a crude protective method; back in the Era of the Law Emperor, they used Dimensional Arrays.”

The Cowskin Snake looked around, looked down upon the spatial barrier around them, was about to continue commenting, but found Bai Qi looking at him with dangerous eyes, and immediately retracted its neck.

“Ahem … anyway, I suddenly remembered I had insomnia last night, I’ll go back first.”

After speaking, the Cowskin Snake moved towards Bai Qi’s palm, trying to return to the Secret Space to lay low.

Awooo!

(Stinking snake, don’t you dare run! Taste my paw!)

Seeing that the cowskin snake was trying to run away, Beta immediately rushed up to stop it, but halfway through, he saw a fist smashing towards his face, and it landed accurately on his nose.

Awoo~

(Human, you actually sneak attacked me! It must be that stinking snake, up to no good!)

Beta pitifully covered his nose with an aggrieved look in his eyes, while the cowskin snake was secretly laughing.

“You, go and paint the Dimension Array, or else…”

Bai Qi squinted his eyes slightly, making the cowskin snake shudder and quickly nod in agreement before Bai Qi threw it back.

Awooo…

(Damn, that stinking snake managed to slip away again…)

Beta reluctantly watched the released cowskin snake, his dark eyes rolling around, already planning how to deal with it when they get back.

“May I ask, can we start now?” Cao Lie casually asked, seeing that Beta was still messing around.

“Ahem, very soon.”

Bai Qi apologetically waved at Cao Lie, and then grabbed Beta by the scruff of his neck and said, “Quickly finish this match for me; if you lose, I will physically discipline you, understand?”

Awoo?

(Physical discipline?)

Beta curiously looked at Bai Qi. But upon seeing Bai Qi’s scissor gesture and the wandering gaze, Beta instinctively covered his privates with his front paw, giving Bai Qi a pitiful look.

Awoo Awoo…

(Human, how could you treat me like this…)

“Hurry and go to the competition, you’ll have to face the consequences if you lose,” Bai Qi gave Beta a swift kick in the butt prompting him to reluctantly step onto the stage. As soon as his front paw landed, it was seared by the Magma Arena’s surface.

Awoo!

(This stage actually sneak-attacked me!)

Beta eyed the stage cautiously while Schuck, who was at the side, couldn’t bear to watch anymore. He sprayed several cold breaths directly onto the stage, and froze the Magma Arena.

“So this is the effect of Armament Evolution.”

Wen Ruoshui nodded slightly at the sight. “With both parties on stage, let the match officially begin!”

As Wen Ruoshui’s voice fell, the Magma Hellhound attacked in one go, spewing out Magma Cannonballs with the fury of a volcanic eruption that rained down towards Beta.

Awoo Awoo!

(Despicable, you actually sneak-attacked me!)

Beta skillfully dodged from left to right, as if he could be hit by the Magma Cannonball at any time, but each time he accurately avoided it, occasionally he even found the time to cool off his feet.

“Excellent predictive ability, but so what?”

Cao Lie commented on Beta’s performance in a monotone. The Magma Hellhound did not change its actions at all, but the cannonballs suddenly transformed into Magma Dogs and charged towards Beta.

“Same strategy, what a coincidence.”

Upon seeing that, Schuck’s eyes flashed red, and Mechanical Wolves began to separate from him, each choosing a Magma Dog and launching an attack.

At the same time, the Mechanical Lord unfolded, a row of Frozen Towers aimed precisely at the continuously falling Magma Cannonballs. The Magma Hellhound’s attack did not manage to land a single hit on the ground.

“Is this the ability of Armament Evolution? Why does it feel different from mine?”

“Are you stupid? They’re king-level creatures, what about you? Besides, don’t you see that the separated Metal Wolves aren’t afraid of magma? They’re obviously special materials, are you sure you can afford them?”

“Right, I’m not worthy.”

Schuck’s countermeasures lit up the audience’s eyes, and Zhuge Xu was grinning ear to ear.

No matter how this battle ends, Rune Weaponry and the Arctic Ice Wolves will surely be top-sellers.

What a pity, judging from this, Bai Qi’s main pet probably won’t show up, otherwise, skeleton creatures could also be a hot seller.

Seeing that its attack did not have any effect on Beta, and instead, there was a faint trend of being suppressed, the Magma Hellhound’s body glowed even brighter, the surrounding temperature abruptly rose again, and the originally suppressed Magma Dogs began to counterattack the Metal Wolves.

“Temperature gradually approaching real magma, switching to combat mode.”

Schuck swiftly scanned the Magma Dogs around him, and instantly sent a command to all the Mechanical Dogs. The red Rune Marks suddenly emerged, actually beginning to actively absorb the thermal energy from the Magma Dogs.

With the help of Endless Material Science and Ultimate Engineering, even though he hadn’t fully grasped them yet, they were enough to consolidate what Schuck had learned and give himself a boost.

With the continuous draining of thermal energy, the Magma Wolves became increasingly rigid, gradually becoming petrified and were smashed into pieces one by one by the Mechanical Wolves.

However, the Magma Hellhound remained calm and stood in the same spot. But, magma slowly rolled out from it, continuously pouring into the ground.

In an instant, two streams of magma suddenly erupted on either side of Beta, like a giant mouth trying to swallow Beta. The surrounding land was immediately eroded by the magma, leaving no room for Beta to evade.
