Watching the results of the competition, the audience was incredibly excited, even though it was as expected.
"This Spectral-type Pet is amazing, it even knows skills like the Ill-Fortune Curse!"
"Hahaha, that just killed me. The constant coughing of that ironhead rhino earlier must have been caused by the Ill-Fortune Curse, right?"
"It’s my first time seeing a Spectral-type Pet perform a curse skill. Just one look and it’s done, how can anyone defend against that!"
"Are all curse skills like this? They take effect immediately after being cast?"
"Not all, I guess. The last time I saw a Hazy Ghost cast a curse skill, it passed through the target’s body and took about ten minutes to take effect."
"Where did you see that?"
"Heh, I was swindled out of 2000 bucks by someone I knew. The police said the amount wasn’t enough to make a case, so out of anger, I just rented a Hazy Ghost to curse the scammer."
"Er, renting a Hazy Ghost costs more than 2000, doesn’t it?"
"Don’t remind me!"
"..."
...
In the competitors’ area.
"Do you have a chance against her?" asked a man who was at least 1.9 meters tall, his muscles swell with power.
"I can only manage a two-for-one trade to win one round, but ultimately, it’s a losing battle," said the boy next to him, whose muscular build could still be seen despite the baggy school uniform.
"Look at the spirit you’ve got," the man said discontentedly.
Despite his dissatisfaction, the man said nothing more, knowing that this was the best possible outcome.
...
Elsewhere.
A man dressed in simple Mori-style clothing exclaimed, "15 years old, three High-Level Pet Beasts, if I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, I would never believe there could be such a genius in the world."
The boy next to him wearing black-framed glasses twitched his mouth slightly: "You said the same thing to me back in the day."
The man laughed and said,
"Your talent is different from hers; she has Beast Taming Talent, and you have Mechanical Talent. Beast Tamers need to have both their own and their Pet Beasts’ talent to cultivate powerful Pet Beasts, but you’ve only used your talent to achieve it. By focusing all your efforts, it’s possible to cultivate a powerful Mechanical Beast."
"You managed to cultivate a High-Level Mechanical Beast in your second year of high school, something Qiao Sang couldn’t have done."
"Then do you think I can beat her?" asked the boy with the black-framed glasses.
The man pondered for awhile, then decided to change the subject:
"What shall we eat later?"
The boy: "..."
...
At the same time, a middle-aged man sitting in the last row in a tailored suit, sitting upright with a laptop on his knees, said,
"A Ghost Ring Spectre with high talent can awaken curse skills during evolution. Spectral Pet Beasts with irregular colors are indeed extraordinary in some aspects."
He was looking at the data for the Ghost Ring Spectre, and as soon as the relevant information was displayed, he could see the difference between the Ghost Ring Spectre in the arena and ordinary ones.
"Spectral Pets with irregular colors?" the young man sitting to the left, exuding an air of nobility, looked towards the grey figure floating above the girl’s head in the arena.
"To be precise, it’s a partial irregular coloration," the man said. "The main strength of this Ghost Ring Spectre still lies in its control. The recently awakened Mind Headbutt and Ill-Fortune Curse are both beginner-level skills with not much power."
"The Ill-Fortune Curse isn’t an ability that causes misfortune instantly; rather, it brings about an unfortunate event within a certain period of time. At the beginner level, it should happen unexpectedly once within a day."
"That Ironhead Rhino was just too unlucky. The chances of the curse taking effect in a short amount of time right after it’s cast are very small. When you battle Qiao Sang later, if the Ghost Ring Spectre casts Ill-Fortune Curse, just ignore it and focus on the attack."
The young man withdrew his gaze and said indifferently, "Understood."
The man looked at the young man and said seriously,
"She may have three High-Level Pet Beasts, but the national campus Beast Taming competition is 2v2, and even with three High-Level Pet Beasts, she can only send out two for the battle. As one of the only two competitors in the national competition with two High-Level Pet Beasts, you do stand a chance. Don’t disappoint me or your family, got it?"
The young man was silent for a moment, then spoke earnestly,
Why isn’t the scare having any effect... Qiao Sang pondered thoughtfully and said: fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com
