Luo Wuyue let out a heart-wrenching, beast-like wail.
His eyes were bloodshot, and two lines of bloody tears slowly stread down his face.
He looked at the battle stage in disbelief.
The pet he had poured countless efforts into, endured imnse pain for, and finally managed to cultivate, was just... just gone, without a trace?!
"This is impossible!"
He scread frantically, but the brain domain backlash had already begun!
"Quick, give him the Domain Lock Spirit."
The Starsea Cup did not have human judges; the entire process was adjudicated by an intelligent system.
However, to be safe, the Staff mbers maintaining the battle stage's isolation shield also carried Domain Lock Spirits.
Soon, a solid body bag appeared on the opposing command platform.
At the sa ti, an electronic synthetic voice rang out.
"Luo Wuyue has lost the ability to continue the match. This singles match is won by Mingxi!"
"Whoosh!"
The audience finally ca to their senses, erupting in even more intense cheers.
It was rare for a pet to die during a match.
Not to ntion dying so... dismbered.
This was the first death in a match in this national competition.
"Is this Mingxi a bit too bloodthirsty?"
"I don't think so! Didn't you see that Luo Wuyue even activated the 【Berserk】 trait for his pet? Wasn't he going for Black Pearl's life? If he can harbor murderous intent, can't Ming Shen fight back?
Don't be so hypocritical!"
"Exactly, why don't you ntion how arrogant Luo Wuyue was? He kept provoking Ming Shen, and his pet dying is what he deserved!"
As Mingxi showcased her brilliance in the national competition, her fan base surged to the point of causing ngo Blog to crash.
Yes, it was that exaggerated!
She was definitely the most watched competitor in this national competition! No one else ca close!
At least a quarter of the audience mbers or their pets today were fans of her or Golden Yuanbao and the others!
So, if anyone spoke ill of Mingxi, that person would inevitably be t with several, or even dozens, of sharp glares.
It was as if soone had touched their Reverse Scale.
The comntary booth, which had a rather weak presence in this battle, now beca lively.
Neither of the two comntators was a fan of anyone, so they weren't at odds but instead discussed the final unexpected turn of events.
"Uncle Great Sword, did you figure out what happened at the very end?"
The comntator nicknad Great Sword propped his chin, thinking like a philosopher, and after a long while, he said with so uncertainty, "This is what I think: Anatoth should have a trait similar to 【Free Movent】, which allows it to rge into any liquid, including venom.
Anatoth just entered the venom pool, and during the process of using the skill Hidden Sea Elegy, it also made contact through the venom, entering its body through the wound on the Phosphor Razor, as blood is also a liquid."
The other comntator frowned, "But that shouldn't cause the Phosphor Razor to explode from the inside out, right?"
That was also the point that Great Sword had been unable to understand.
Traits similar to 【Free Movent】 were not rare, but they definitely did not have the ability to make a pet explode from within.
He suddenly thought of the venom that had disappeared from the ground!
A flash of inspiration!
"It's Volu Water!"
"Anatoth used Volu Water to absorb all the venom into the Phosphor Razor's body, which caused its body to rapidly expand, its energy field to beco chaotic, and the venom's erosion would also disrupt all the balances in its body!
How could the Phosphor Razor have any chance of survival!"
Mingxi couldn't hear the comntators' conversation.
If she had heard it, she would definitely have given this comntator a thumbs up.
He was right.
The Phosphor Razor died at the hands of the most ordinary water-type skill, Volu Water!
Mingxi had already summoned Little Silver Flower at this ti, letting her heal the miserable Black Pearl.
"Does it hurt?"
Looking at Black Pearl, who was obediently drinking the antidote and energy recovery potions, Mingxi's eyes were full of heartache, and also unconcealed pride.
"Argh!"
Black Pearl grinned, revealing a mouthful of sharp teeth, indicating that she didn't hurt at all, and even asked her if she felt unwell due to empathy.
My little cub has really grown up.
The healer is relieved · jpg
Mingxi almost shed a stream of hot tears.
My child has grown up.
...
Because Luo Wuyue was defeated in just one round, and it resulted in the death of his pet, his brain domain suffered a severe backlash, directly causing him to lose his qualification to battle with Guan Cheng.
This also ant that no matter who won or lost between Mingxi and Guan Cheng, both of them would successfully advance.
However, what surprised Mingxi was,
"Xiao Xi, you don't need to prepare for the match with Guan Cheng anymore, because he voluntarily conceded, so the result of your group is already set."
Mingxi was stunned for a mont.
"Guan Cheng conceded? Did he say why?"
Was this important figure so unconcerned with formalities? Conceding just like that, especially against a junior like her.
Where was his pride? His face? His dignity?
He didn't want any of it?
Shen Linhua's expression was strange, "His team conveyed that he was worried that accidentally losing to you would damage his image as an important figure, so it's better to «N.o.v.e.l.i.g.h.t» concede voluntarily. Others will think he is treating a junior with courtesy by giving you a round."
"...Then he really thinks highly of ."
The opponent conceding was, of course, a good thing, but she was actually quite looking forward to the match with Guan Cheng.
She had never had a proper battle with an SSS-level Beast Master.
The previous Butterfly Demon, and his distant sycophant, were both opponents she had brute-forced with her cheats. To be precise, they couldn't be considered proper battles.
With the singles match successfully advanced, Mingxi's task in the national competition was now only the doubles.
The first match of the doubles 3-into-2 competition was scheduled for the afternoon.
Against Xiao Linyuan.
When they brushed past each other in a certain part of the arena, Xiao Linyuan's face was so gloomy it looked like water could drip from it, and a bone-chilling killing intent spread out as if it were tangible.
He slowly raised his hand, made a throat-slitting gesture in Mingxi's direction, and silently mouthed the words:
"You just wait!"
Mingxi rolled her eyes.
Childish.
2:40 PM.
The broadcast announced: "Doubles 3-into-2 match, Group 15, Xiao Linyuan, Mingxi, please enter the arena!"
Mingxi and Xiao Linyuan ascended the command platforms from two different passages.
The electronic synthetic voice announced the start of the match.
The atmosphere in the massive circular arena was extrely tense.
Mingxi took a deep breath, her eyes sharp as knives, and ford hand seals to summon!
Two distinctly different lights shone.
On the left side of the battle stage, Chiyu stood majestically with an iron-blooded aura, dark red tal armor covering its entire body. Its fists clashed together, emitting a dull clang of tal.
A heavy, tenacious, unmoving steel will perated the air!
The next second, the steel wing armor behind it transford and combined into the Pomie Gun, its tip gleaming with cold light.
On the right side, amidst a sacred and gentle light, Little Silver Flower danced elegantly.
Her silver hair flowed like a waterfall, her pure white wings gently unfurled, and she was surrounded by sparkling lights, like a shattered star belt.
She floated barefoot, her pink dragon eyes calmly observing the opposite side, an invisible wave of pressure subtly emanating.
"Wow!"
"It's Little Silver Flower and Chiyu!"
"So beautiful!"
"So cool!"
"Sisters, stand up!"
"Chi!"
"Mianmian!"
"Little Silver Flower Goddess! I love you!"
"Chi Chi!"
