Beast Taming Begins with Inheriting a Legacy.

Chapter 41 Top 4 Opponents: Ghost-type Pets

Immediately, Xian Jiu used high-speed movement and rushed into the sea of ​​fire without hesitation!

Upon hearing this instruction, Lu Jiuwen frowned in confusion: "What is Gu Ling trying to do? Does she really want Xian Jiu to brave the flames and charge out?"

Just as Xian Jiu was about to be engulfed by the flames, Gu Ling suddenly spoke up: "Xian Jiu! Use teleportation!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Xian Jiu's figure disappeared into the vortex of flames!

"What?!" Lu Jiuwen's pupils contracted slightly.

The next second, Xianjiu's figure appeared out of thin air behind the three-tailed fire fox.

Gu Ling: "Use Iron Tail!"

Xianjiu's cat tail lit up with a white light and swept towards the three-tailed fire fox!

boom!

Caught completely off guard, the three-tailed fire fox was struck by the iron tail and sent flying in pain.

Lu Jiuwen's gaze was fixed on the three-tailed fire fox on the battlefield. He spoke again, "Three-tailed fire fox, stand up!"

Upon hearing Lu Jiuwen's voice, the three-tailed fire fox, who had already collapsed from severe injuries, tried again to get up from the ground.

Seeing this, Gu Ling immediately added insult to injury: "Xian Jiu, the final blow! Ten Thousand Volts!"

"Meow—"

Xian Jiu gathered all her strength, and a powerful force of lightning converged, condensing into a bolt of lightning that struck the three-tailed fire fox!

Zzz~

A direct hit from 100,000 volts!

The three-tailed fire fox completely lost consciousness and collapsed to the ground.

The outcome is already decided!

……

Inside the studio of the new esports arena.

Several teachers from Nanping No. 1 Middle School are watching the battle footage displayed on several screens, scoring and commenting on each student's performance.

Nanping No. 1 Middle School installed camera equipment near the battlefield in advance to broadcast all the students' matches in real time to the studio in the battle hall.

At this moment, a middle-aged man walked in. He had regular features, wore glasses, and exuded a refined and peaceful demeanor.

The teachers inside the room all stood up to greet the visitors:

"Principal Zhou, what brings you here?"

The visitor was Zhou Xinhong, the current principal of Nanping No. 1 High School. He smiled and said, "Isn't today supposed to be the quarterfinals? I came to see which matches are the winners' bracket quarterfinals."

A teacher pointed to two screens: "There are two quarterfinal matches currently underway, one over here and one over there."

After finding a seat, Zhou Xinhong joined the other teachers to watch the competition.

"It's quite rare to see a little girl with a ghost-type pet, a miniature doll."

"Ghost-type pets are indeed difficult to deal with; it looks like the other side's little vine monster is going to lose."

As expected, the miniature doll emerged victorious amidst the teachers' back-and-forth conversation.

At that moment, on the other side of the screen, the Electric-type Raichu suddenly used the Psychic-type move Teleport, immediately attracting the attention of all the teachers present.

"Huh? This Raichinja can actually use the Psychic-type move Teleport? That doesn't make sense, does it?"

"It doesn't really feel like a psychic-type awakened power..."

"According to the order of advancement, the next one will be the Ghost-type Mini Doll battling this potentially mutated Thundercat..."

Looking at the Thunder Seal Cat on the screen, Zhou Xinhong slowly said, "It's also possible that this Thunder Seal Cat has a mutated talent, gaining an additional psychic attribute."

Seeing that the principal himself was interested, the grade director next to him glanced at the student's information and said to Zhou Xinhong, "This student is named Gu Ling. She performed very well in the previous rounds, and this is the first time she has shown the super-powerful attribute of her pet in the battle exam."

Zhou Xinhong smiled and said, "This student Gu must have discovered that Lei Yin Cat has Psychic-type skills a long time ago. He has been hiding his trump card in the previous rounds, trying to catch his opponent off guard."

"Although the other student lost, he also made good use of the Three-Tailed Fire Fox's Blaze ability."

Seeing some promising young talents brought Zhou Xinhong a great deal of relief.

I hope to achieve a good ranking in this friendly match.

Zhou Xinhong's gaze returned to the battlefield on the screen.

At the same time, the referee announced the result of the match:

"The Three-Tailed Fire Fox is unable to fight, and the Thunder Cat wins..."

Before the referee could finish his announcement, Lu Jiuwen had already strode into the battlefield and gently scooped the three-tailed fire fox into his arms.

Lu Jiuwen's expression had returned to calm. He turned to Gu Ling and said, "Gu Ling, congratulations on your advancement. I'll take the Three-Tailed Fire Fox to get treatment now."

Gu Ling nodded: "Okay, you should go now."

After Lu Jiuwen left, Gu Ling also went down to the stage.

Huang Weiwei greeted Gu Ling with a smile: "Lingling, you're amazing! Congratulations on advancing to the top 4!"

"Senjiu was amazing too! The final 100,000 Volt was super cool!" Huang Weiwei didn't forget to praise Senjiu as well, giving her a thumbs up.

Xian Jiu proudly tossed her head: "Meow~" Absolutely!

Just then, the name "Huang Weiwei" was called over the loudspeaker. Huang Weiwei's face immediately fell: "Lingling, I'm going to take my battle test now. You have to tell me clearly about Xianjiu's ability to use super-powered skills after my battle. I'm so curious..."

Gu Ling nodded, somewhat amused. "Okay, go ahead."

Although Huang Weiwei was eliminated in the round of 16 and fell into the loser's bracket, she still has to continue to take the battle test.

The loser bracket exam rules are to give students who encountered strong opponents in the early stages and were unfortunately eliminated a chance to compete for the remaining spots in the elite beast taming class.

The number of students in the Beast Taming Elite Class is maintained at around 30 to 35 each year. Basically, students who make it into the top 16 are guaranteed to enter the Beast Taming Elite Class, and the extra student spots are selected from the losers' bracket.

Finally, the students who remain in the earlier letter groups have a greater chance of being assigned to the Beast Taming Elite Class.

After Huang Weiwei left, Gu Ling ran into Long Yifei and Dai Hao.

The two had only been there a short time, but they had already witnessed Xianjiu's final use of teleportation, and were equally astonished.

After Gu Ling walked over, Long Yifei winked and asked, "Gu Ling, you're awesome! You actually had this trick up your sleeve? When did Xian Jiu learn superpower skills?"

Gu Ling delivered the explanation she had prepared in advance: "I only discovered this in the last couple of days. It seems that Xian Jiu's talent has mutated, and he has gained a superpower type."

"I see." Long Yifei suddenly realized, and then imagined the rest: "Then maybe the electric talent that Xian Jiu lacked was made up for in the superpower type."

Seeing that Dai Hao seemed a bit down, Gu Ling couldn't help but ask curiously, "Dai Hao, what's wrong?"

Logically speaking, Dai Hao should be even more excited than Long Yifei to encounter something like Xianjiu's talent mutation.

"He lost in the quarterfinals," Long Yifei answered first, his tone laced with undisguised schadenfreude. "And he was even instantly defeated!"

"What's going on?"

Hearing this, Gu Ling became even more curious.
