Beast Taming: Starting From Zero
Chapter 483: Paléi Lulu

"Xun~"

Xiao Xunbao grinned, her eyes turning blue.

The two thorny vines that were suspended mid-air abruptly halted before turning headlong towards the direction of Palm Spiker.

"Spiky!"

Palm Spiker quickly retreated, but the vines were even faster, swiftly binding it tightly.

Tang Yi made a split-second decision, commanding, "Disengage!"

Since the Spiky Vines were manifested by Palm Spiker, even now under the reverse control of Ghost Ring Specter, they would naturally disappear once disengaged.

Hearing the command of its Beast Tamer, Palm Spiker circulated energy within its body, and the two vines binding it instantly vanished into green specks of light.

Before Palm Spiker could make its next move, it suddenly lost control and was flung into mid-air.

Following that, it began to spin at high speed in a 360-degree rotation.

Observing the situation in the arena, the audience from the Zhongkong Region was silent, while others started to discuss among themselves:

"I told you Tang Yi is no match for Qiao Sang."

"He can't fight, just can't."

"Ghost Ring Specter hasn't even made a move, and with just a single Telekinesis attack, Palm Spiker couldn't withstand it."

"Palm Spiker is just a Medium Level Pet Beast, definitely no match for Ghost Ring Specter. The real interest lies with Paléi Lulu."

He's no match… Tang Yi felt a heavy weight in his heart.

He was all too aware of the gap between himself and Qiao Sang.

Zhao Chuanyu, who was with him in the Imperial Capital, was not someone he hadn't competed with during inter-school exchanges. Tang Yi couldn't beat Zhao Chuanyu, who had bonded with the Red Swift Dragon, and naturally, he couldn't beat Qiao Sang, who had defeated Zhao Chuanyu.

However, he couldn't just admit defeat like that!

Tang Yi's gaze hardened, and he shouted resolutely:

"Spikes!"

Palm Spiker, despite feeling nauseated, opened its eyes and tensed all the muscles in its body.

A hundred sharp spikes shot out from its body in an instant, launched in a 360-degree spread without any blind spots as it rotated.

If Ghost Ring Specter dodged the spikes, it should have to stop the Telekinesis control… Tang Yi watched the scene in mid-air intently, waiting for Ghost Ring Specter to move.

"Spatial Movement," Qiao Sang said calmly.

Spatial Movement? Tang Yi's eyelids twitched, a sense of unease starting to creep in.

Wouldn't a simple Teleportation suffice to dodge the spikes? Why use Spatial Movement?

In the midst of his thoughts, Xiao Xunbao's eyes, glowing with a blue light, suddenly darkened a few shades.

The next second, still spinning, Palm Spiker vanished from its original spot and appeared before Xiao Xunbao.

Dozens of sharp spikes, launched just in time, all struck Palm Spiker.

"Spiky!"

Palm Spiker screamed in agony.

The remaining hundred or so spikes dropped simultaneously.

Xiao Xunbao's eyes returned to their original golden color.

Palm Spiker fell downwards.

"Finish it off," Qiao Sang instructed at the right moment.

"Xun~"

On hearing this, Xiao Xunbao extended a paw, and a black Shadow Ball instantly formed, hurled towards Palm Spiker as it continued to fall.

"Use Spiky Vines!" The situation unfolded too swiftly for Tang Yi to give it much thought, and he blurted out the counter-command instinctively.

Palm Spiker, while falling, couldn't dodge well, but it could use the Spiky Vines to help itself move!

```

However, reality often differed from one's thoughts.

The Shadow Ball was too fast; Lili hadn't even begun to gather energy when, with a loud "bang", the Shadow Ball exploded upon impact with its body.

Lili fell to the ground, knocked unconscious on the spot.

"Qu!"

The mechanical beast wearing the referee's badge floated over to take a look and blew the whistle.

"Xun Xun~"

Xiao Xunbao opened its claws upwards and showed the audience an expression that read, "Praise me, I'm ready."

"Wow!"

The faces of the audience from the Zhongkong Region darkened, while those from the Yuhua Region were flush with excitement, cheering wildly.

Although no one was surprised that the Ghost Ring Specter defeated Lili, this was the final match, and winning felt different from the usual victories.

"I told you Tang Yi was no match for Qiao Sang!"

"What a move at the end, cool! He used Lili as a human shield by moving it right there!"

"Hahaha, Lili ended up using its skill on itself."

"Just one more win and the championship is Qiao Sang's!"

An audience member from the Zhongkong Region couldn't stand the gloating of those from the Yuhua Region and said, "Don't get too excited too early, Tang Yi's real powerful Pet Beast is Paléi Lulu."

The fan from the Yuhua Region immediately retorted, "What does it matter if he has one powerful Pet Beast? Qiao Sang's three Pet Beasts are all awesome."

The national championship of the campus Beast Taming League had always been primarily won by the Zhongkong Region, and while they didn't say it out loud, the natives carried a sense of pride, unused to this kind of treatment on the competitive stage.

The local fan wanted to argue back but couldn't find a point to refute, so his face grew even darker.

In the first row of the spectator seats, the leadership area.

"Well done!" Minister Zhou was so excited he couldn't contain himself, standing up and clapping loudly before quickly noticing the lack of expression on Minister Yan's face, then quietly sat down, his face distorted because he was overly excited yet trying to restrain himself.

"Qu!"

The whistle signaling the start of the match blew.

Tang Yi, already prepared for an eventual loss in the first match, clasped his hands together.

A gray Star Array lit up.

The next second, a Pet Beast appeared before everyone, its entirety a dark purple color with purple pupils, two purple shoulder pads with lightning patterns on its shoulders, purple knee pads on its legs, standing on two feet, and a pair of fan-shaped wings on its back.

"Papa!" It cried out to Xiao Xunbao just as it appeared, stirring up a chaotic flow of air.

"Xun Xun!"

Xiao Xunbao, not willing to show weakness, also shouted back at it, but there was no change in its surroundings.

Xiao Xunbao: "..."

Paléi Lulu, an Electric-type and Flight-type Dual Attribute High Level Pet Beast, extremely rare in the Zhongkong Region. Different from typical Dual Attribute Pet Beasts, it had the potential to evolve into a Tri-attribute Pet Beast with a Dark-type... With three characteristics, first, Static Electricity, its body carrying static electricity, sometimes paralyzing opponents on contact, second, Charge, which allowed it to recover rather than take damage from Electric-type skill attacks, and third, Steadfast, preventing it from becoming confused and unaffected by skills like Intimidation... Qiao Sang felt an indescribable excitement and nervousness looking at the impressive beast from a distance.

This was the last opponent...

On the other side, Tang Yi took a deep breath, trying to keep his voice steady, "Tang Bupa, it's up to you now."

"Papa!" Paléi Lulu responded seriously with a cry.

"Qu!"

The whistle blew, signaling the start of the match.

Xiao Xunbao, realizing the opponent wouldn't be as easy to handle as the last, immediately turned invisible.

Paléi Lulu flapped its wings and soared into the air, yellow arcs of electricity dancing exuberantly around it.

"Papa!"

As Paléi Lulu let out a resounding cry, the yellow arcs of electricity suddenly expanded from its body and struck outwards.

The power was so great it covered more than half the arena!
