Chapter 12 (1/2)

The whole venue was in an uproar!

Zhang Xiao had lost two times in a row!

To make it worse, Zhang Xiao had sent out precious pets like the Dragon Hound and the Stone Rhino. One of them had the bloodline of a king beast and the other was a pet that was antagonistic to the Lightning Rat. For the second pet, it would reach the fourth rank once it grew into adulthood!

Two pets like this had both been defeated by a cheap, low-rank Lightning Rat!

“Is that a pet skill of the thunder family, Thunder Shadow Illusion?”

“Good heavens, how can a Lightning Rat use such an advanced pet skill?”

“That is simply horrifying. That is the king of rats!”

Many students present had recognized the “Thunder Shadow Illusion.” They discussed heatedly in shock.

“I won again…”

Su Yanying felt she was dreaming as she looked at the Lightning Rat which was bouncing back to her. None of it seemed real.

“Sh*t!!”

Zhang Xiao was embarra.s.sed by the shouts of surprise that came from around the venue.

He could blame his carelessness and underestimation for losing the first round. However, he had to admit inferiority since, for the second game, he sent out the Stone Rhino but failed again.

A mere Lightning Rat had defeated him. How shameful that was!

“If it weren’t for the fact that the Starry Hiero Beast is still in cultivation and I cannot bring it here, I wouldn’t have allowed the match end like this!” A cold and vicious glare filled Zhang Xiao’s eyes; he directed his ill intent to Su Yanying who was in the distance. He couldn’t stomach the fact that she had humiliated him!

“Next, please send out your pets for the third match,” The judge said loudly. Then, he looked at the Lightning Rat in Su Yanying’s arms. This little guy was amazing. It was so talented that it would incur jealousy. Without any surprises, the Lightning Rat was capable enough to defeat all the other low-rank pets with the two advanced pet skills.

“Hmm!” Zhang Xiao snorted coldly. He turned around and went off the stage without the third pet.

He admitted defeat.

He had another pet that was more powerful than the Dragon Hound; that pet was his ace card for the preliminary matches, but it wasn’t much different from the Dragon Hound.

Besides, he still had to find a strategy to counter the “Thunder Shadow Illusion” constructed by the Lightning Rat. To fight the Lightning Rat recklessly with no regard for the consequences would lead to a lose-lose situation.

He had many more opponents to compete with. Losing this one point would not hinder him from pa.s.sing the preliminary match. He didn’t need to reveal all his cards which would only expose all his abilities to others.

With the departure of Zhang Xiao, a great deal of cheering broke out at once.

Except that there was some booing amid the cheers.

n.o.body could have thought that they would cheer for a low-rank, cheap Lightning Rat at a grand and serious event like this. While surprised, they found this turn of events hilarious.

“I won…”

Su Yanying stood there, absent-minded, and watched as Zhang Xiao left the stage. The pa.s.sionate cheers were telling her that everything was real.

She…

She didn’t do anything and still she had won.

The Lightning Rat that was lying in her arms; to think she had once considered removing the contract that had brought her such an effortless victory.

“Thunder Slash, Thunder Shadow Illusion…” Su Yanying looked at the Lightning Rat that was nuzzled up in her arms. This was strange. Surprisingly, the pet skills that were so intimidatingly powerful could be found in a Lightning Rat.

Why didn’t she know that it was so talented in combat before?

She just left it for a month at the store and it came back a different person. No, a different rat.

The thought of pet boarding reminded Su Yanying of something. The confusion in her eyes was fading away. She wondered if everything was related to that pet store she went to.

But, that was just a normal pet store. This was unlikely.

…

“Such an eye-opening day!”

“Right. We have just witnessed a magical fight.”
