"Switch!" Qiao Sang shouted.
"Xun Xun!" Little Xun Bao teleported and vanished from its original position.
"Boom!"
With a thunderous blast, flames erupted at the spot where Little Xun Bao had been standing, the shockwave wrapped in fire sweeping through the surrounding air.
The Bimo Fox extended its claw.
A coin flew down from the shockwave.
"Xun Xun~"
Just as the coin was about to reach the Bimo Fox’s claw, Little Xun Bao appeared tens of meters away in midair, grinning mischievously at the Bimo Fox.
"Bimo..."
The Bimo Fox’s gaze was instantly drawn to it.
It wasn’t that Little Xun Bao’s smile was particularly captivating. From its angle, it could only see a silver helmet, chestplate, and two arm guards seemingly worn by someone, hovering in midair.
In the next moment, Little Xun Bao’s body materialized within the armor. Unlike before, its eyes were now glowing blue.
Meanwhile, the item fell into the Bimo Fox’s hand.
Almost the instant it got hold of the object, the Bimo Fox realized something was amiss.
Looking down, it discovered that what it held wasn’t its Fire Coin, but a silver accessory.
"Bimo!"
The Bimo Fox’s eyes widened as realization struck, and it quickly glanced upward.
It saw that its opponent was now missing one of their arm guards, while its own Fire Coin was firmly clutched in their paw.
"Xun Xun~"
Little Xun Bao scratched its nose with one paw while tossing the Fire Coin up and catching it again with the other, a taunting smirk plastered across its face.
"Bimo!"
The Bimo Fox bristled with rage, glaring at Little Xun Bao and baring its teeth.
"Oh! The Bimo Fox’s Fire Coin is now in Ghost Ring King’s hands, while the item that was supposed to be in Bimo Fox’s possession has been replaced with one of Ghost Ring King’s armor pieces!" The commentator shouted passionately:
"This is Trickery! A Psychic Series skill! Ghost Ring King just swapped its item with the Bimo Fox’s!"
The arena exploded with chatter:
"Ghost Ring King can use Trickery? How many Psychic Series skills does it even know?!"
"Without its Fire Coin, doesn’t the Bimo Fox lose half its combat effectiveness?"
"Ghost Ring King didn’t use any items in previous matches and chose to use them only now—was this all for the sake of swapping items with its opponent?"
"Makes sense! Ghost Ring King’s armor can be used both for defense and item swaps, and it’s clearly custom-sized and unusable by the opponent even if taken! Qiao Sang’s strategy is just too brilliant!" freewebnovel.cσ๓
"I think it’s pure coincidence. Apollo’s Pet Beast has always relied on items, and Qiao Sang couldn’t predict that Ghost Ring King would encounter the Bimo Fox in this round."
"Apollo should’ve deployed the Touring Sea Beast instead..."
...
"Attack!" Apollo commanded sternly.
"Bimo!"
Upon hearing its Beast Tamer’s voice, the Bimo Fox instantly calmed down, replacing its angry expression with focused determination.
It stomped hard, and fierce flames burst forth from beneath its feet.
Raging fire blazed up around its legs.
Without delay, the Bimo Fox transformed into a streak of red, darting across the arena in a shrinking spiral, like a fiery vortex closing in.
Its speed was so fast that flames were left in its wake, marking its route.
But this wasn’t all—the spiraling flames didn’t just remain on the ground. Starting from the second ring inward, fire began extending upward into the air!
Higher and higher it spiraled!
