Chapter 19

"Yue, it seems there’s a battle over there, and it hasn’t started yet."

Outside the arena, two young girls were walking along a small path outside the venue.

Through the mesh isolation net, the two girls were suddenly attracted by the movements of the summoned beasts inside.

They instinctively looked over and just happened to see the Ice Armor Beast and the Iron-Eater Beast that had just appeared.

"That person... is Chen Kai?"

The girl called Yue by her companion saw the appearance of the boy in the school uniform and his beast, and immediately said in surprise.

"Do you know someone? Yes... someone is indeed wearing your school’s uniform."

"Uh-huh, that person is my classmate, very powerful..."

"Who is stronger, you or him?"

"I can’t compare, there are very few in the entire grade who are stronger than him..." Yue immediately said, "His Ice Armor Beast has already reached level six, and the racial skills Ice Split Claw and Ice Armor are already very proficient."

"Oh, I didn’t expect him to be such a top student. Do you know his opponent? The beast is an Iron-Eater, just like yours."

"I don’t know him, but from my experience raising an Iron-Eater, that Iron-Eater’s growth level is probably not yet level six... I think it will lose."

"Unless it has mastered the Hardening skill, it will be difficult to break through the Ice Armor. And Iron-Eaters are typically lazy... At this growth level, the Hardening skill is most likely still at the beginner level."

Yue sighed helplessly, deeply feeling the pain of raising an Iron-Eater. If she could choose again, she would absolutely not choose the Iron-Eater because it is too lazy!!!

Chen Kai himself had the same judgment as these two passersby.

Generally, Iron-Eaters at this growth level rarely have their Hardening skill trained to the proficient level. At least, none of his classmates have.

Even if it reaches the proficient level, it may not necessarily be able to counter the Ice Armor Beast, after all, both of his Ice Armor Beast’s racial skills have also been trained to the proficient level!

Although adult Iron-Eaters have higher overall qualities than adult Ice Armor Beasts, this Iron-Eater is clearly still a juvenile!

"Ice Armor Beast, Ice Split Claw!"

Beast masters can communicate with their contracted beasts through mental telepathy. At the beginning of the battle, Chen Kai ordered the Ice Armor Beast to initiate the attack.

Whoosh!!

The Ice Armor Beast suddenly burst forward, its ice-blue body rushing towards the opponent. At the same time, ice frost enveloped its front claws, and the cold air made the ground it stepped on freeze with a layer of white frost.

Soon, it leaped up, swinging its sharp ice claws in the air, tearing towards the Iron-Eater with a fierce momentum.

"Good burst, well-trained, worthy of a student from a key school."

The referee, Bai Shi, noticed the Ice Armor Beast’s impressive strength.

"Hardening."

On the other side, Shi Yu issued the command.

Although proficient Hardening is undoubtedly strong, it was their first battle, and they had no practical combat experience. For Shi Yu and Eleven, saying they were confident would be a lie.

Could the hardened body defend against the opponent’s attack?

Could the hardened attack break through the opponent’s Ice Armor?

Shi Yu and Eleven were still unsure about these things. This practical combat was precisely to test their strength.

It must be said that the fall training was a good training method.

Apart from the final impact, the fall process was also a test of Eleven’s mental fortitude.

After all, knowing that a strong impact was imminent but still having the courage to jump and use abilities in mid-air, it’s hard not to develop a strong will.

Therefore, facing the Ice Armor Beast’s claw, Eleven’s mental fortitude was surprisingly good. She remained calm and quickly activated Hardening!

The proficient Hardening skill was released very quickly, almost instantly. A metallic luster enveloped Eleven’s entire body!

The black fur areas turned deep and metallic, while the white fur areas hardened like shining silver. Eleven let out a roar and immediately completed her full armor!

Crack!!

In the next second, the Ice Armor Beast’s Ice Split Claw came into contact with Eleven’s fully hardened body.

In a split second, the ice crystals on the Ice Armor Beast’s front claws, which had been tearing through, quickly shattered as if they had encountered something hard.

At the same time, excruciating pain spread from the front claws to the Ice Armor Beast’s brain.

"Counterattack."

Almost instantly, Little Eleven looked at the opponent.

Feeling the opponent’s attack, she was only bewildered.

Because the power of this attack... seemed weaker than her training intensity.

Under Shi Yu’s command, Eleven’s eyes sharpened, and the bewilderment disappeared. She let out a roar and, while maintaining her full Hardening, swung her arm and delivered a full-force punch!

This sudden change completely caught Chen Kai and the Ice Armor Beast off guard, and their expressions changed.

Ice Armor!

Chen Kai transmitted his thoughts, his expression panicked.

"Hisss" The Ice Armor Beast, as expected, successfully used Ice Armor. The ice-blue scales on its body became even more crystalline, and cold air surged out.

In addition to the scales becoming harder, the energy that surged out could freeze the opponent upon contact. This was the effect of Ice Armor.

However.

As Eleven’s bear paw struck the Ice Armor Beast, "Crack" the Ice Armor, like paper, quickly collapsed. The outer layer, similar to the ice frost from the Ice Split Claw, rapidly disintegrated. Then, the ice frost that had frozen the Iron-Eater shattered under the massive impact.

Bang!

With the immense force, the Ice Armor Beast was almost instantly slapped away, flying several meters backward and rolling on the ground for several more meters before finally stopping.

After the first round of confrontation, everyone at the scene fell silent.

Seeing this, Chen Kai’s heart skipped a beat, and his vision went dark.

As the Ice Armor Beast’s master, he could sense that the Ice Armor Beast had been knocked out with a single blow!

This, this is not scientific!

The Ice Armor Beast he had raised without any flaws, lost like this???

How is this possible!!!

At this moment, Shi Yu’s heart also skipped a beat.

Because the practical performance of the proficient Hardening skill seemed too strong. If he had known, he would have let Eleven perform normally and not use dinner to boost her fighting spirit.

Is this over... This doesn’t match his requirement for an evenly matched battle. It seems he needs to find a stronger opponent to further test their strength.

"Is it... over?"

The referee Bai Shi was also stunned. He rubbed his eyes and opened his mouth wide.

What just happened...

That was...

"Proficient Hardening?" Bai Shi and the Iron-Eater’s master, Zhuang Yue, outside the isolation net, both spoke in surprise.

They were speechless, completely not expecting that a young Iron-Eater at only level five could develop the Hardening skill to this level.

"Your top student classmate lost..."

"Sorry, I must have mistaken him. He’s not my classmate." After a moment of silence, Yue said.

A level five Iron-Eater with proficient Hardening is ridiculous.

This talent is too strong... Also, is the beast master a high-level beast master retraining a new beast?

Otherwise, he must be a second-generation rich kid or a second-generation beast master with top-tier nutrition and special training methods.

Seeing Chen Kai’s expression, you can tell how exaggerated Shi Yu and Eleven’s performance was. At this moment, Yue only hoped that her classmate, who was a top student at school, could handle this pressure.

At this moment, Chen Kai felt like he wanted to vomit blood, not understanding why he came to this place to find an opponent.

This Iron-Eater... This beast master, compared to the opponents he had faced before, is completely unreasonable.

Losing is one thing, but the key is that it didn’t serve any training purpose, and he was defeated in seconds... Damn, how was this Iron-Eater raised.

The most ridiculous thing is, when Chen Kai looked at the Iron-Eater, Eleven actually laughed, stabbing another knife into Chen Kai’s heart. He regretted it, realizing that school is still suitable for him, and society is full of monsters. He was starting to doubt his life.

Eleven: (O ^~^ O) Hehe.

At this moment, Shi Yu, Chen Kai, and the people around them had different emotions, but the happiest one was Eleven herself.

Because dinner was saved! Saving dinner is a great victory! This made her happier than winning the battle.
