The situation wasn’t quite as Zhao Chuanyu had anticipated; the audience was in an uproar, but no one was laughing at him for being foolish.
"Damn it! The Prideful Poison Star is just too poisonous! Look at what it has done to Bingke Xilu!"
"Ah! My Bingke Xilu! Its scales have been corroded; imagine how much pain it must be in!"
"Hey, hey, hey, don’t go too far, people of the Ancient Mist Region. This is a competition and the folks from the Yuhua Region haven’t said a word yet."
"Heh, Zhao Chuanyu should be thankful that this isn’t the Ancient Mist Region."
"Do all Water-type Pet Beasts hold their breath like this, or did Bingke Xilu specifically train for it?"
"From the looks of it, Zhao Chuanyu’s situation is not good."
"The Ice Flower Seal doesn’t seem as powerful as they say on the internet; it hasn’t been of any use since noon."
"That’s because there’s too much poison in the air; not only is the energy of the Ice Flower Seal affected, but when the Prideful Poison Star breathes it in, it can even recover a bit."
"Great, after half a day’s fight, Bingke Xilu healed everything with Healing Light."
"What’s there to fear? The Prideful Poison Star hasn’t even used its ultimate move yet."
Despite the unfavourable situation on the field following the recent exchange, the audience from the Zhongkong Region, who knew about Zhao Chuanyu’s strength, did not believe that Qiao Sang would be able to win the match easily.
...
On the field.
"Proud..."
The Prideful Poison Star struggled to rise, its body blossoming with several delicate ice flowers.
Its eyes glowed blue, and a light wall had already re-formed atop its head.
The drawback of the Ice Flower Seal was quite obvious; it only worked when it came into direct contact with the target’s body. But as snow took time to reach the ground, if the opponent knew in advance that the falling snow was Ice Flower Seal, they would be ready—it would set up a Skill to shield its head from the snow containing the most energy of ice sealing... As the energy in the succeeding snow decreased, the rate of ice flowers blooming would also slow. As long as the target had strong physical fitness, at most it would just affect its movements... Qiao Sang watched the Prideful Poison Star and analyzed its condition subconsciously.
If the Ice Flower Seal were a bit more powerful, the opponent wouldn’t have dared to let the Prideful Poison Star remove its light wall earlier to attack Lubao with Venom Impact...
At that moment, the blue light on Lubao dissipated.
Qiao Sang immediately gathered his thoughts and called out loudly,
"Ice Flower Seal!"
If one wave didn’t do the job, then give it another wave!
Seeing as the Prideful Poison Star was currently deploying its light wall, let it continue to remove the light wall to interrupt the casting of the Ice Flower Seal!
Lubao raised its head and opened its mouth, instantly filling the area with invisible cold air.
Quite a lot of poison fell into its mouth.
Zhao Chuanyu squinted at this scene, making no move.
After Lubao finished casting Ice Flower Seal and closed its mouth, its body was clearly stiffened, emitting dark gases.
Then, it took a deep breath, and its body illuminated with blue light once again.
Zhao Chuanyu realized that Bingke Xilu, capable of holding its breath, was unlikely to proceed as he had originally planned.
He had intended to use lethal poison to continuously drain Bingke Xilu’s energy so that when the time came, the Prideful Poison Star would still make it to the next round to deplete the Liaoxing Dog, maximizing its usefulness before exiting the stage.
Now it seemed, that plan wouldn’t work.
Since that was the case, it would be better to take advantage of the fact that the Prideful Poison Star had not yet fallen to use all its energy to create a Poison Series field!
Upon thinking this, Zhao Chuanyu no longer hesitated and issued an order, "Venom Blast, all of it!"
