1235. Chapter 1230: Fighting the Earth Dragon Again
“Xunxun~”
Little Xunbao called out, announcing that he had downloaded and registered two days ago. He’d learned that major competition platforms only hire well-known referees these days, and that livestreaming would help him gain more fame, eventually allowing him to become a full-fledged referee at major tournaments.
Qiao Sang: “…” “
No, judging at a major competition platform—is that something you, an F-rank referee, should even consider now?
” “You don’t have to do a livestream. Once we participate in the StarCraft Cup, you’ll naturally become famous, and then they’ll definitely be vying for you to be a referee,” Qiao Sang said casually.
She knew that Little Xunbao had just earned his refereeing license and was still fresh in the air. He wouldn’t be interested in refereeing at major tournaments after a while.
“Xunxun~”
Little Xunbao called out, operating his phone. “
But it’s going to be a long time before you can participate in the StarCraft Cup. Who knows how many years it will take. “
He waved his paw at the phone, calling “Xunxun, Xunxun.”
Qiao Sang: “…”
That’s the truth…
Qiao Sang said nothing more and returned to watching the game.
At that moment, an elderly-looking insect-type pet stepped between Tingbao and Tululong and pressed the referee’s wristband.
A translucent barrier rose around them, forming the size of a field.
Inside, the referee, wearing a badge, blew the whistle to signal the start of the match.
Tingbao’s body immediately erupted in crackling yellow arcs of electricity, which slashed towards Tululong.
“Tutu!”
Simultaneously, Tululong roared, and the grass beneath Tingbao suddenly ripped apart.
Tingbao noticed the movement below, but his beastmaster’s words flashed through his mind, and he didn’t dodge.
“The most important thing in a fight is to strike first. If you can outperform the opponent, they will have to adapt to your rhythm. So don’t hesitate when using your skills, and trust yourself.” “
Strike first, I’m faster…” Tingbao’s eyes widened, a sharp glare as he glared at Tululong.
Tululong was caught completely off guard, and fear welled up in his heart.
The rock spike that was about to burst through the torn grass suddenly stopped.
“Tingting!”
Tingbao roared excitedly, sensing the pause below.
The next second, the lightning that had been striking the Earth Dragon suddenly dispersed, and yellow arcs of electricity rapidly intersected, converging into a net that enveloped the Earth Dragon.
The power of lightning could not harm the Earth Dragon, but it could still feel the surrounding lightning.
This power freed it from fear and brought it to its senses.
The same trick again… The Earth Dragon recalled something, and with a look of disdain, it burrowed into the ground.
“I’ve reviewed your match. To use the electric net to completely envelop the Earth Dragon in all directions, the first thing to do is get it off the ground. It has ground-based attributes, so it’s difficult to get it off the ground under direct attack. However, there’s a time when it can easily leave the ground: when it burrows into the ground.”
“Remember, just after it burrows into the ground, not after it’s been there for a while, because then you won’t be able to determine its position.”
Already prepared, Ting Bao, recalling his Beastmaster’s words, unhesitatingly gathered the arcs of electricity that had been surging from his body into a powerful lightning force, blasting it towards the point where the Earth Dragon had burrowed.
The surrounding ground instantly shattered.
“Tut, tut!”
The Earth Dragon was blasted free, striking the top of the electric net.
Ting Bao seized the opportunity to unleash his lightning force once more.
This lightning bolt didn’t strike the Earth Dragon, but instead landed on the electric net.
Immediately, the arcs in the lower half of the net rapidly extended, intersecting, and converging, forming a spherical net that completely trapped the Earth Dragon.
“Xunxun!”
Little Xunbao shouted excitedly from outside the barrier.
The Earth Dragon had been successfully trapped. Now, all he had to do was unleash his ultimate move… Qiao Sang thought to himself.
“Tingting!”
Tingbao’s eyes lit up as he looked at the completely trapped Earth Dragon. Without a moment’s delay, he charged in its direction.
Simultaneously, a silver-white light condensed on his tail.
“Tu Tu!”
As a dragon-type pet, the Earth Dragon naturally knew what this move was. Its face changed slightly, and it instinctively tried to burrow into the ground.
But the electric net below blocked its digging motion.
Its face darkened drastically, and it raised its head and pouted, intending to attack as a defense.
“Bang!”
However, its earlier attempt to burrow into the ground had delayed it considerably. Before it could erupt with streams of mud like bombs, its tail, gleaming with a silvery-white glow, slammed down hard on it.
“Tu Tu!”
the Earth Dragon screamed.
“If the dragon’s tail successfully hits, don’t be too happy. The Earth Dragon has high defense, so it won’t necessarily be defeated by this blow. Remember to finish it off.”
“Ting Ting?”
What does finishing off mean?
“It means giving it another hit.”
“Ting Ting!”
Ting Bao, recalling his conversation with his beastmaster, suddenly gathered a rich silver-white light in his tail and swung it down heavily.
“Tu Tu!”
the Earth Dragon screamed again.
The ground beneath it cracked, sending clouds of dust flying.
By the time the dust settled, the Earth Dragon had fainted.
“Xunxun!”
Little Xunbao exclaimed excitedly, holding his phone.
The insect-type pet, wearing a referee’s badge, paused for a moment, then stepped forward to check on the Earth Dragon.
After a moment, it turned with a complicated expression to look at Tingbao, blew the whistle to end the match, and called out,
“Dede.”
A virtual panel appeared above Tingbao.
[Species: Thunder Dragon]
[Level: Intermediate]
[Points: 14980]
[Rank: 1]
The barrier vanished.
The insect-type pets watching nearby looked at each other, bewildered, as if they couldn’t believe the Earth Dragon had lost.
Tingbao stared at the unconscious Earth Dragon, a dazed expression on his face.
Did it win?
Just then, Qiao Sang walked over and said with a smile,
“Great, Tingbao, congratulations on your victory.”
“Xunxun!”
Little Xunbao turned off the live stream, put away his phone, floated over to Tingbao, and excitedly patted him on the head.
Well done, Old Six!
It had been watching Tingbao’s first battle with the Earth Dragon, so it naturally knew how much Tingbao had improved during the match.
“Tingting!”
Tingbao looked at his beastmaster, finally feeling the real victory. With an excited expression, he swung his tail forward, picked up his beastmaster, and threw him upward with force.
Qiao Sang couldn’t help but smile brightly, letting Tingbao toss him around without dodging him as he had in the past.
“Dede.”
At the same time, the elderly insect-type pet took off its referee certificate and called out to the surrounding insect-type pets.
The insect-type pets came over, lifted the unconscious Earth Dragon, and walked towards the cave. (End of this chapter)
