If you are asked to raise a dog, you raise a stellar beast?

Chapter 62 War Tension

"I wonder if your fists are as hard as your mouth!"

Zhang Li summoned his beast and said fiercely.

A giant scorpion appeared beside Zhang Li.

The scorpion had a slender body and a fiery red exoskeleton that reflected a metallic sheen under the light, as if covered in a layer of fiery armor. Its stinger was blackish-red, sharp and slender, the meaning of which was self-evident.

Fire Poison Scorpion!
Xu Mo didn't rush to summon Jian Yi, but instead had the system scan the scorpion for him first.

[Fire Poison Scorpion, Black Quality Tier 2 Peak Taming Beast]

Its element is fire, and the spikes at its tail possess fire poison.

"Damn it! You think I'm afraid of you?!"

Huangfu Xuanjue also had a fiery temper, and he immediately summoned Zhenhai.

Xu Mo sighed, "Dude, I haven't even agreed to fight him yet!"
But since things have come to this, come on then!
With this thought in mind, Xu Mo no longer hesitated and summoned Jian Yi.

"Senior, is this a one-on-one fight or a group brawl?"

Xu Mo made a "come and hit me" gesture at Zhang Li, which made Zhang Li so angry that he gritted his teeth.

"Of course it's a one-on-one fight. How can I, as the senior, bully the younger one?"

Zhang Li spoke calmly, displaying the demeanor of a senior student.

The truth is, his henchmen weren't from the combat platoon, but from the special operations platoon. In other words, he brought along a few support personnel to show off.

Xu Mo chuckled: "Alright then, my brother will fight you."

Huangfu Xuanjue standing next to me? Me?

"Brother, he's a higher level than me."

Huangfu Xuanjue lowered his voice and whispered.

"Don't worry, it's fire-attribute, you can counter it. Just be careful of the scorpion's stinger, it'll be easy to fight."

Xu Mo made a cheering gesture to encourage Huangfu Xuanjue.

Seeing that Xu Mo had already said so, Huangfu Xuanjue felt it would be too embarrassing to back down, so he had no choice but to agree.

"Alright, I'll go up and test his skill level first. If I can't handle it, you'll have to help me."

Xu Mo nodded, with an expression that said, "I'm the most reliable one."

Huangfu Xuanjue stepped forward and looked at Zhang Li: "Let me experience your superior skills, senior!"

"Alright, let's teach your lackey a lesson first."

Zhang Li stared at Xu Mo, his eyes filled with malice.

In his eyes, Huangfu Xuanjue, who always echoed Xu Mo, should be Xu Mo's "little brother".

Upon hearing the word "follower," Huangfu Xuanjue lost his temper.

"You're the lackey! Mysterious Water Cage!"

A cage made of dark green primordial water instantly rose from the ground, trapping the fire scorpion inside.

The moment the Xuan Shui touched the Fire Poison Scorpion, steam immediately formed on the scorpion's body.

The Fire Poison Scorpion also let out an angry roar.

Scorpions and similar insects prefer to hide in cold, damp places.

However, they do not like direct contact with water, and the Fire Poison Scorpion, being a fire-attribute beast, particularly dislikes water.

Especially this extremely yin mysterious water.

"Scorpion Armor! Break through this water cage!"

The fire scorpion immediately expanded its carapace, using it to compress the mysterious water cage.

The black water made a hissing sound when it touched the shell.

But the fire scorpion seemed oblivious to the pain, continuing to expand its carapace.

Finally, the Xuan Shui Cage could no longer withstand the ever-expanding shell and shattered with a crash.

The Fire Poison Scorpion's body was covered in marks from the corrosion caused by the Xuan Water.

The fire scorpion writhed, and its outer carapace peeled off.

Then a "brand new" fire scorpion appeared, leaving behind a pile of corroded old shells.

"Can this still happen?"

Huangfu Xuanjue's eyes widened.

I never expected that these spiky crayfish would molt.

"Haha, the fire scorpion is practically immune to this kind of minor corrosion."

"Fire Poison Scorpion, Poisonous Fire Sting!"

The Fire Poison Scorpion's tail hook rapidly extended, flying towards Zhenhai with its blackened venomous hook.

Zhenhai was exceptionally clever; it immediately retreated back into its shell. The poisonous hook struck the shell, producing a metallic clang.

If you look closely, you can even see the sparks that fly out.

The Fire Scorpion retracted its venomous hook and looked at the scene with a pained expression.

This turtle shell is really hard!
"Hehe, the turtle shells of Zhenhai are specifically designed to counter a little lousy hook like you."

Huangfu Xuanjue said proudly.

Huang Mao Zhang Li's henchmen began their performance: "Coward, coward!"

"I'm not a coward!"

Huangfu Xuanjue immediately became anxious upon hearing the words "coward."

Command Zhenhai to launch an attack.

Seeing this, Xu Mo frowned slightly, while Zhang Li curled up the corners of his mouth.

Tortoises are good at defending against predators but not at attacking.

If you launch an attack rashly in battle, it will be easy for your opponent to find a weakness.

Xu Mo naturally saw through Zhang Li's thoughts, but he did not remind Huangfu Xuanjue.

In these matters, it's better to learn from experience than from person to person.

Sure enough, Zhenhai stuck out his head and spat out a water cannon.

The Fire Poison Scorpion used its Poison Scorpion Armor to withstand the water cannon.

The Poison Fire Thorn flew towards Zhenhai once again.

Because it was spraying water cannons, Zhenhai was unable to retract its head back into its shell in time this time.

He took a solid hit from the Fire Scorpion's fiery sting, although the small hook didn't cause much damage to Zhenhai's flesh.

However, the fire poison took the opportunity to enter Zhenhai's body.

As the fire poison entered his body, Zhenhai let out a painful howl.

Huangfu Xuanjue immediately became anxious.

He wanted to end the battle quickly.

"Vast Realm!"

Huangfu Xuanjue immediately unleashed his ultimate move.

The surging waves directly covered the entire beast-taming arena.

Perhaps due to the influence of the fire poison, the vast domain that Zhenhai used this time was clearly not as powerful as when he sparred with Xu Mo.

The raging waves turned into gentle breezes and ripples.

"Hahaha, your realm is too weak, watch mine instead!"

Zhang Li burst into laughter.

"Poisonous Fire Domain!"

The powerful poisonous fire filled the entire area.

The wind and waves just now turned into poisonous fire.

In the clash of realms, Zhenhai is clearly at a disadvantage!
Xu Mo shook his head. If Huangfu Xuanjue played it safe and used defense as a weapon, the probability of defeating Zhang Li was very high.

After all, there's an elemental advantage, and turtles are known for their endurance when it comes to taming beasts.

However, Huangfu Xuanjue chose to take the initiative to attack, so it was normal for him to fail.

After suffering a defeat in the realm, Zhenhai was also attacked by the Fire Poison Scorpion's fire-type attack.

His condition is getting worse and worse.

However, Huangfu Xuanjue did not want to give up, and neither did Zhenhai.

Zhenhai desperately tried to gather the surrounding water elements to alleviate the pain of the poisonous fire burning his body.

However, the poisonous fire domain had already evaporated all the surrounding water elements.

As time passes by.

The situation was becoming increasingly unfavorable for Huangfu Xuanjue.

In the end, Zhenhai was left with only the ability to defend, and had no power to fight back at all.

The fiery scorpion swung its tail, whipping Zhenhai like a spinning top.

One lash, two lashes, three...

Before the third tail-whip could even be unleashed, an earthen shield protected Zhenhai.

Xu Mo stepped forward and looked at Zhang Li.

"Senior, how about we have some fun?"
