Weakest Beast Tamer Gets All SSS Dragons novel Chapter 901

Chapter 901: Chapter 901 - Taming the Fifth Year - Attrition - Balancing Chaos

Serpent current reserves: Approaching the threshold where combat effectiveness would begin seriously degrading.

The Wolverine intensified the earth assault, with earth projectiles becoming faster and more frequent.

"Took you long enough to figure it out," Min called cheerfully. "I was wondering how many elements you’d try before going with the obvious answer!"

"I was being thorough," Ren responded with mock dignity. "Some of us value complete data collection over rushing to conclusions."

"Some of us also prioritize winning before opponents burn all their resources," Min countered. "But sure, let’s call it ’thorough investigation’ instead of ’overthinking.’"

Even in competitive battle, their friendship came through in the easy way they needled each other.

But the humor didn’t reduce the seriousness of what came next.

The Wolverine’s earth technique was ready. Massive. Overwhelming. Designed to end the fight decisively rather than prolonging exchanges that favored the serpent’s sustainability through absorption.

The bombardment became nearly overwhelming. The serpent’s evasion and explosive propulsion were barely sufficient to avoid the increased rate of incoming attacks. Several projectiles grazed its scales, leaving visible marks where impacts had occurred.

And simultaneously the Wolverine began demonstrating something that would inevitably make Min complain: Ren’s own control over fire and water was still greater than Min’s despite the impressive innovation his friend had achieved.

Ren could control both elements with refinement exceeding what the serpent demonstrated, even though separately for now.

The gap wasn’t enormous in water, both Min’s beasts being specialists there. But in competitive combat, that gap was decisive when exploited properly.

And when Ren began using those elements not to attack but to interfere with the control and projectiles the serpent launched, the drop in effectiveness became immediately obvious.

Fire that Min generated was neutralized by fire control from Ren’s beast that knew the exact temperature and composition to cancel his efforts.

Efficiency ratio: approximately 3:1 in Ren’s favor.

Water was redirected by manipulation exploiting superior control under elemental influence.

When the serpent launched water projectiles, Ren’s Wolverine would generate counter-currents.

Efficiency ratio: approximately 2:1.5 in Ren’s favor.again.

It was a demonstration of mastery stealing back the spotlight that Min had established with his dual-element beast revelation. A moment making clear that even his brilliant innovation wasn’t sufficient when facing someone with fundamentally superior domain over the elements being contested.

The serpent’s effective attack rate dropped as almost all its attempts were neutralized before reaching the target. And the mana expenditure for those failed attempts meant the serpent was burning through its reserves even faster than the evasion had been costing.

The situation was collapsing. Min’s innovations had been impressive and had extended what may have been a quick defeat into several minutes of competitive exchange.

But extensions weren’t victories... And the underlying resource disparity combined with Ren’s superior elemental control was finally asserting itself decisively.

"Hey!" Min protested with genuine frustration and some self-aware humor. "You’re stealing my essence and breaking my special moment again! First the invisibility, now water and fire elements. Can’t you let me have at least one thing that’s uniquely mine?"

The complaint was delivered with theatrical exaggeration that drew laughter from the audience.

A Finch and Theodore’s worthy act... Arms spread wide, expression of mock betrayal and all the whole performance calculated to entertain even while making a legitimate point about Ren’s tendency to outshine everyone else’s efforts like some novel’s main character.

"Oops, you’re right, I’m sorry!" Ren called back with absolutely zero sincerity in his apology.
