The next moment, the Big Mouthed Monkey aggressively opened its eyes. “Roar! Roar!” It excitedly pulled its hands out of the ground, pointed in a certain direction, and then began gesturing.
Were there two opponents in that direction?
Ziyun understood.
“Crackle—”
In the brilliant electric light, its limbs turned back into thunder elements, then its body blinked a few times before disappearing, leaving only traces of leaping electric arcs, drawing out its phantom-like residue.
“Roar!”
The Big Mouthed Monkey’s expression grew animated, it scratched its head, then strode after Ziyun.
Although it couldn’t catch up, pursuing was enough!
“This is the sixth time Xu Jiujiu’s Frost Dust Wolf was cornered, it finally ceased retreating and chose to head-on with the encircling opponents.1‘
“One against five! With the geographical advantage of the glacial environment, the Frost Dust Wolf aggressively defeated the opponents! After swiftly defeating three Pet Beasts, it left the scene!”
“Eh heh heh- The Frost Dust Wolf is really strong!” Looking at the imposing Frost Dust Wolf on the screen, a smile emerged on Tan Yue’s face.
He is the ardent fan of the White Wolf Girl!
The days without annoying advertisements were already joyful enough, and seeing the Frost Dust Wolf showing off its prowess again, a smile returned to Tan Yue’s face.
“Xu Ran’s Pet Beast has made a new move! With the help of Hu Zhong’s Big Mouthed Monkey, Xu Ran’s Pet Beast has actively sought out other Pet Beasts!”
“This is… an active attack!”
Looking at the big shining words “Starfire Foster Care Shop” appearing on the screen again, Tan Yue’s smile disappeared.
Are you ever going to stop?!!
“Huh?”
Looking at Ziyun, which suddenly appeared on the Pet Beast’s field of view like a descending divine soldier, and feeling the Pet Beast being defeated at the speed of light, a Beast Master in the arena couldn’t help but make a baffled and astonished sound.
He turned to look at that still calm figure, after a moment of silence, he spoke with agony, “Xu Ran! I didn’t besiege you!”
“Oh, just passing by, took the opportunity.”
Xu Ran didn’t even lift his head, casually replied, had Ziyun strike a pose towards the camera, then with the help of the panting Big Mouthed Monkey who had just caught up, rushed towards the direction of another Pet Beast.
Being keen on grabbing the limelight, he didn’t care at all whether the Pet Beasts he encountered had ever besieged Ziyun before.
Was it important? Not important.
With the passage of time, the atmosphere in the arena was gradually changing.
After realizing despairingly that even with a joint siege, they could hardly eliminate those four thousand-point players, the alliance formed by other players began to silently crumble.
They no longer launched joint attacks, but fought individually in their originally formed small teams, prioritizing the preservation of their own rankings and eliminating other competitors.
But, at this moment, they faced the backlash of the siege they had just formed.
Following Xu Ran, the other three thousand-point players began to direct their respective Pet Beasts to actively eliminate others!
You just besieged me? Get eliminated!
Then, Xu Ran and Ziyun became anxious.
Stealing my opponent is okay, stealing my spotlight is not!
Ziyun, in a killing frenzy, rampaged all over the mountains and plains searching for opponents, causing the other Pet Beasts in the arena to tremble with fear.
The other three players, as if they had found their momentum with Xu Ran, collectively accelerated the speed of elimination.
They inexplicably picked up the pace, leaving the other players as the victims.
Thirty left…
Twenty left…
Ten left…
The number of players was decreasing at a rapid pace, until only seven were left.
Besides the four thousand-point players, only Su Xiaoxiao, Duan Anxun who paired up with Gu Ling, and Hu Zhong who teamed up with Xu Ran were left.
“Brother Xu, thank you!” Achieving these results was beyond Hu Zhong’s expectations. He seized the opportunity to express his gratitude, patted Xu Ran’s shoulder, then raised his hand, “I voluntarily drop out!”
On the other side, both Su Xiaoxiao and Duan Anxun expressed their gratitude to Gu Ling, then chose to voluntarily drop out.
In the competition area, finally, only four Pet Beasts were left.
Just as Xu Ran was about to breathe a sigh of relief, a massive white figure suddenly appeared before his eyes…No, it appeared in front of Ziyun.
Looking at the Giant Wolf, covered in snow-white fur without a single uneven hair, whose eyes were filled with the intent to fight, Ziyun’s pupils quickly contracted to pinpoints. The heterochromatic eyes were like a bottomless abyss, filled with sharp battle intent.
It felt a great deal of pressure from the opponent.
This was a very strong opponent!
The pressure the opponent brought was only second to the previous Dark Scale Dragon!
“What do you mean?” Xu Ran frowned slightly, turning his head to glance at a short-haired girl next to him, her wheat-colored skin and a bit wild-looking outfit.
“We still have a lot of time, why don’t weThe short-haired girl narrowed her eyes slightly, was about to make a suggestions with a playful smile, but she was interrupted.
“Ding ”
The bell ringing marked the end of the rematch.
“Darn!” Xu Jiujiu rolled her eyes in displeasure, “What a killjoy.”
The entrance to the competition arena opened again, and the Pet Beasts walked out.
The defeated beasts, which had lost their combat power earlier, had received medical attention. At this moment, their injuries had been healed, and they returned to their respective Beast Masters.
Of course, there were also the beasts that were in perfect condition due to voluntary elimination and the beasts of the last four contestants standing.
“Congratulations to the four contestants, for securing the final victory in the rematch, and advancing to the next round!” The host began with a smile.
“As the top four contestants advancing to the final, you have one chance to make a statement for the upcoming finals.”
As he spoke, camermen aimed their cameras at the four and the microphones were promptly handed over by the staff members.
Such an unexpected opportunity?
Xu Ran’s eyes lit up instantly.
He pulled out the banner from his backpack that he didn’t use earlier, waved it twice in front of the camera after opening it.
“Starfire Foster Care Shop, offering the best love and care for your Pet Beasts!”
Knew this would happen!
The entire venue fell silent, even the host couldn’t help but twitch at the corner of his mouth.
Seeing Xu Ran launching an advertisement again, they surprisingly had a feeling of “this just feels right”.
Apart from Xu Ran, the remaining three performed more formally.
Lyu Guang picked up the microphone, faced the camera, touched the hairband on his head, his expression full of confidence, “Champion, I’ve got this.”
Gu Ling next to him smiled slightly and took over the microphone, “I hope that this competition will allow my Dark Scale Dragon to meet a worthy opponent.”
Xu Jiujiu blinked, “Then I…’d like to wish everyone a Happy New Year! May everyone…”
Seeing Xu Jiujiu earnestly beginning her New Year’s greetings, the venue fell silent once again.
It’s half a year until the New Year, what are you doing?!
Out of the four advancing contestants, why are two of them abnormal?!
Even Xu Ran couldn’t help but stare at Xu Jiujiu a little longer.
This person, is somehow even more attention-grabbing than me?
“Ahem ahem.” The host coughed awkwardly, “We’ve felt the enthusiasm of contestant Jiujiu Xu, and with that, the rematch is over. But before the end of the live broadcast, we have a final procedure.”
“That is the pre-lot draw to decide the order of the semi-finals and finals.”
“The four candidates will be divided into the Red group and the Blue group, with two candidates in each group. The groups will face off in the semi-finals and decide the winners and losers.”
“The winning and losing groups will face off in the finals.”
“The winner of the winning group will be the ultimate champion of this competition, and the loser will be the runner-up.”
“The winner of the losing group will be in the third place, and the loser will be in the fourth place.”
“And now, the draw is in my hands!” The host took out a lottery box, “There are four pieces of paper in it, numbered one to four.”
“Numbers one and two are the Red group, and numbers three and four are the Blue group.”
“Contestants, please draw!”
Xu Ran and the others looked at each other, then stepped forward together, quickly picking out their respective numbers from the lottery box.
Opening his own piece of paper, Xu Ran couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows.
Number three.
So, his next opponent is number four?
He looked up, directly meeting a pair of bright eyes.
Xu Jiujiu waved the number four paper in her hand at Xu Ran and made a face, “We’re up against each other!”
“It seems so.” Xu Ran shook his head helplessly.
“Meow-”
Ziyun looked serious and turned to look at the Frost Dust Wolf, who was much bigger than her.
This guy…is so strong!
“How about we make a bet?” Xu Jiujiu suddenly leaned in sneakily.
“What bet?” Xu Ran raised an eyebrow, instinctively stepping back half a step.
“If we win this battle, I’ll send my Frost Dust Wolf to your foster center.” Xu Jiujiu patted the big head of the Frost Dust Wolf, “If I win, you have to give my Frost Dust Wolf ten free washes and groomings!”
Good deal, there’s profit to be gained regardless of winning or losing.
Xu Ran had a bright smile on his face, “No problem..”
