Beast Taming Begins with the Inner Circle of Pets

Chapter 58 The Grand Finals! (Part 3)

Lin Manman let out a soft breath and exchanged glances with her teammates. The next two battles were going to be tough fights!

"Let's go." After saying that, she took the lead and walked towards the competition stage.

By the time they stood on the ring, their opponents, Hui Mingxu's team, had already recovered with the help of the official medical team.

The audience finally saw Lin Manman take the stage, and thunderous cheers erupted throughout the stadium.

"Long live Sister Kid! White Tiger will win!!"

"Go, little girl! You're the only 15-year-old in the history of the Jinling Junior Professional Tournament to reach the Level 2 finals!"

"Please, please let the White Tiger play!! I beg you!!"

"Little Sister, charge forward and take first place!!"

Hearing the shouts from the audience, Lin Manman's four teammates all took a step back in unison, afraid that the audience would also get caught in the crossfire.

Even Hui Mingxu, who was usually aloof, showed a crack on his expressionless face, as if he was trying hard to suppress a laugh.

Lin Manman herself didn't feel much glory, only shame and a desire to cover her face. Although it might be a bit inappropriate, she seemed to truly understand how those idols in her past life felt when their own fans made fun of them.

She tried to keep a straight face, politely shook hands with her opponent, and then immediately raised her hand to summon her four spirit pets: Rainbow Jade, Honey Badger, Ada, and Amber.

The beast tamers on the opposite side summoned their beasts almost simultaneously. When the Blood Devouring Wind Wolf appeared, Lin Manman gave Amber a command.

"Amber, use your Divine Flame Body and Flame Clone to entangle those two Blood Devouring Wind Wolves."

Amber's innate Divine Flame Glazed Body allows her to transform herself into a pure energy body, preventing the Blood Devouring Wind Wolf from inflicting bleeding to activate its innate ability.

A powerful tiger roar echoed throughout the stadium.

The Bloodthirsty Wind Wolf was also slightly startled by the tiger's roar.

In the instant the Bloodthirsty Wind Wolf hesitated, Amber on the field transformed into a giant tiger-shaped phantom made of flames, while another phantom, slightly smaller, appeared on its side. This was Amber's Flame Clone skill.

The audience was also stunned by the tiger's roar. After a brief moment of calm, the arena erupted like a lit firecracker.

"55555 The roar of the mythical white tiger is truly extraordinary! I almost peed my pants!"

"What kind of skill is this? How can it turn into two?"

"It seems to be a clone skill! As expected of the Mythical White Tiger, he's mastered a clone skill at such a young age!!"

"That smaller one is a clone skill, but its original form seems to have changed."

"It's elementalization! It's incredible that such a small spirit beast can be elementalized." Most of the audience in the front row were from schools and some other forces. Compared to ordinary people, they had the eyesight of professionals.

"What? Jiacheng High School is also determined to get this promising talent?"

"Haha, saying we're certain to get it is a bit of an exaggeration. Even if we wanted it, we might not be able to compete with them."

"Mr. Li is too modest. You guys are in the top ten of all high schools in Jinling. If you want to compete, your chances of winning are very high."

The dozen or so high schools present all knew perfectly well that most of them were there for her.

Ignoring the cheers from the audience, Lin Manman focused solely on directing Amber to entangle the two Bloodthirsty Wind Wolves. These two Bloodthirsty Wind Wolves were the most troublesome element for Hui Mingxu's team; if they were to accidentally injure someone and cause them to bleed, the tide of battle could easily turn.

Although Amber is currently only at level two, it is a whole grade higher than the two Bloodthirsty Wind Wolves. In terms of attack power, Amber is indeed much weaker, but its energy accumulation is not much less than that of the Bloodthirsty Wind Wolves. Moreover, its main purpose is only to entangle them, not to engage in direct combat.

In addition, due to Amber's unique talent, the Blood Devouring Wind Wolves' physical attacks cannot cause damage, and even if wind-type skills hit Amber, the damage is halved. If necessary, Amber can withstand the damage and prevent the two Blood Devouring Wind Wolves from shifting their target to someone else.

Without the threat of the two Bloodthirsty Wind Wolves, Honey Badger led Liu Ping towards the opposite side. The berserkers and holy sword warriors on the other side were also prepared, and with the help of the horned apes, they successfully thwarted Honey Badger's charge.

The honey badger and Liu Ping were stopped in place by two soldiers and a gibbon on the other side.

"Honey Badger, unleash your ultimate move!" Lin Manman shouted as she saw that the honey badger was entangled.

Amber can only hold off the two Bloodthirsty Wind Wolves for a limited time; the battle must be ended quickly.

Upon hearing Lin Manman's voice, the honey badger immediately let out a low growl, used its claws to knock back its opponent, and seized the opportunity to unleash a meteor shower.

As the skill was successfully released, huge rocks condensed above Hui Mingxu and the others, then rapidly fell and crashed down upon them.

Hui Mingxu and the others were shocked and hurriedly used their skills to attack the boulder in the air, but the boulder was too big and the skills failed to shatter it.

This move was something Lin Manman had strictly instructed Honey Badger to use from the very beginning of the competition; he must not use it lightly without her signal. Because of more than a month of training, Honey Badger had significantly improved the level of his Meteor Shower skill. If he used all his energy to activate the skill, it could be comparable to the damage of a level 5 professional, but Honey Badger would run out of energy after one use.

The boulder crashed onto the ring, the tremendous shockwave reverberating throughout the arena. Even the spectators instinctively recoiled in fright.

"My god, is this a catastrophic skill? That's terrifying!"

"Is this really a Level 2 professional? This is way over the top!"

"That girl has quite a few trump cards up her sleeve!"

"Hiss, this won't kill anyone, will it?"

Not only were the audience worried, but the referees were also keeping a close eye on Hui Mingxu and the others, fearing that one of them might not be able to withstand the blow and be smashed into a pulp, beyond saving.

The referee was concerned, and Lin Manman was also concerned about Hui Mingxu and the others. However, it was clear that her concern was different from the referee's.

"Rainbow Jade!" Now is the perfect time for a sneak attack!

While directing Hongyu to launch a sneak attack as Huimingxu and the others were scrambling to dodge the falling boulders, Lin Manman also took advantage of the chaos to retrieve the incapacitated honey badger into her pet space.

Beastmasters are a class that relies on their spirit pets to fight, and their physical abilities are inferior to those of mages of the same level. The opposing beastmaster did not have protective gear of the same level as Lin Manman, so after being hit by the boulder twice, and after the turtle shell defense and energy shield that the Mudstone Turtle had given him were shattered one after another, he became the first target of Hongyu's sneak attack.

The Beastmaster was successfully removed from the arena, and the summoned spirit pets on the arena were also forced to return. Without the threat of the Blood-Devouring Wind Wolf, Amber also dispelled its flame clone, but it still retained its Divine Flame Body. Instead, it cooperated with Liu Ping and Ah Dai, who had been providing aerial support, to leave the two warriors who wanted to rescue their teammates behind.

Not long after the Beastmaster was knocked off the stage by Hongyu, the Water Mage also exhausted his shield's energy and was then sent flying by the quick-witted Hongyu. Unfortunately, Huimingxu's protective gear was of a high level, and even though he dodged somewhat awkwardly, his defense remained impenetrable.

Lin Manman frowned. This was a bit troublesome! Now that the honey badger was incapacitated, neither Xue Songwen nor Fang Yaqi had the ability to quickly restore its fighting strength. If Hui Mingxu was allowed to hold out until the meteor shower ended, she would have no means to deal with the domain technique.

With that thought in mind, she no longer hesitated and raised her hand to summon Silver Moon.

"Silver Moon! Shadow Control!"

Silver Moon slashed out with its claw, and a black shadow extended from its claw to Hui Mingxu's feet, merging with Hui Mingxu's shadow. Hui Mingxu, who was frantically dodging, found his body suddenly out of control, frozen in place, unable to move.

Two massive boulders, which he couldn't dodge, struck his already dimmed protective light shield. The shield flickered briefly before shattering. Then, Rainbow Jade and Silver Moon simultaneously unleashed their skills, sending Radiant Brightness off the stage...
