Fang Si spoke with certainty, "It's fine, Chen Shu can handle his team position!"
Seeing their leader vouch for him, the other three said no more.
"Let's talk about our individual situations."
Fang Si, Black Iron Three-star Beast Tamer, contracted spirits: Super S-grade Crimson Flame Dragon, main offense! S-grade Frost Dragon, main control!
Ning Qingyi, Black Iron Two-star Beast Tamer, contracted spirits: S-grade Stone Rock Giant Beast, main defense! A-grade Gale Sparrow, main speed!
Shen Yue, Black Iron Two-star Beast Tamer, contracted spirits: S-grade Demon Eye Crow, main reconnaissance! A-grade Healing Green Worm, main healing!
Lu Zhining, Black Iron Two-star Beast Tamer, contracted spirits: Super S-grade Charm Red Butterfly, main control! A-grade Black Lightning Bird, main offense!
The four-person beast tamer team boasted a luxurious lineup, with each member possessing an S-grade contracted spirit.
As the team leader, Fang Si even had two dragon-type contracted spirits.
This was also the standard for Huaxia Academy. New students who were admitted at least possessed top-tier A-grade contracted spirits. Once they became Black Iron level, under bloodline evolution, they would transform into S-grade.
Chen Shu gazed at the eight ferocious contracted spirits, a look of surprise in his eyes.
He remained calm and said,
Chen Shu, Black Iron One-star Beast Tamer, contracted spirits: D-grade Golden Giant Slime, main offense, control, defense, and cuteness!
Upon finishing, an incredibly cute slime appeared, bouncing slightly.
Even without using size potions, it was already five meters in size, a true behemoth.
"Ah, this..."
Except for Fang Si, the other three had their mouths slightly agape. When they heard "D-grade," they already felt a sense of foreboding.
What did "main cuteness" even mean?!
Immediately after, Chen Shu spoke again,
"D-grade Elemental Beast, main house-wrecking, secondary offense!"
"???"
Everyone looked over again, their expressions now a little dazed.
"Awooo! Awooo!"
The husky instantly bounded out of its beast space. Upon seeing the slime, it immediately became incredibly excited, constantly butting its head against the slime.
"Goo goo!"
The slime also seemed pleased, responding to the husky's headbutts.
Both shared the same owner and naturally possessed a sense of closeness, as if their bloodlines were connected.
"Goo goo! Goo goo!"
"Awooo! Awooo!"
Looking at the two contracted spirits that were like living treasures, Qiao Yue and the other two looked as if they had turned into idiots.
The surrounding contracted spirits also looked over, staring intently at the husky and the slime, with the demeanor of having never seen the world before.
After a long while,
The three returned to their senses, their gazes turning to Fang Si, seeking a reasonable explanation.
Two D-grade contracted spirits were indeed disappointing. Going to the异空间 (Yi Kong Jian - Otherworld/Dimensional Space) would definitely drag the team down.
If Chen Shu had two A-grade contracted spirits, they wouldn't have said anything.
But D-grade was simply too absurd; it was already at the level of social beast tamers, a far cry from them.
Especially since Chen Shu's two contracted spirits looked so bizarre!
"Agni, Qingyi, have the Stone Rock Giant Beast and the Black Lightning Bird head to the competition platform!"
Fang Si's expression was calm as she directly named two contracted spirits, one for offense and one for defense.
Lu Zhining and Ning Qingyi were slightly startled but said nothing, instead following Fang Si's instructions.
"Chen Shu, fight them!"
Fang Si spoke, wanting him to prove his strength with actions, not just words.
"Yes!"
Chen Shu nodded and asked, "Sister Fang Si, can I use potions?"
As he spoke, a bottle of potion appeared in his hand, containing a purple liquid that exuded a magical aura.
"Holy crap! Don't do anything reckless!"
Fang Si's body trembled. She knew the effects of explosive potions and berserk potions; each was of heaven-defying quality.
"Are you insane?! I told you to fight with your contracted spirits!"
"Oh."
Chen Shu regretfully put away the camouflage potion and had his Little Yellow and the husky head to the competition platform.
The three were completely bewildered, unable to understand why the potion in Chen Shu's hand would make Fang Si so wary.
However, upon seeing the two contracted spirits step forward, they all became serious.
Fang Si understood their strength but still thought highly of Chen Shu, indicating he possessed a certain level of skill.
Lu Zhining and Ning Qingyi exchanged glances and nodded.
The Black Lightning Bird and the Stone Rock Giant on the platform belonged to them. Although they lacked significant coordination due to not having the same owner, their potential ratings alone were enough to heavily suppress the husky and the slime.
Fang Si crossed her arms and said, "Begin."
On the competition platform,
"Roar!"
The Stone Rock Giant Beast was like a giant bear on all fours. Its body was gray, resembling rock, with incredibly strong defenses.
The Black Lightning Bird in the air was only about half a meter long, covered in black feathers, its eyes also a strange black, with crackling currents seeming to linger around its beak.
"Goo goo!"
"Awooo!"
The slime and the husky were still playing around, completely unconcerned about their opponents.
The husky had its back to them, its hind legs constantly bouncing as if it were having a fit.
Just as Lu Zhining was about to speak,
The husky's hind leg suddenly flicked out a wind blade, targeting the Black Lightning Bird in the air.
"So sinister! Attacking sneakily!!"
Qiao Yue and the other two were inwardly shocked, not expecting Chen Shu to resort to such tactics.
"Chit!"
The wind blade sliced through the air. The Black Lightning Bird also didn't react in time, a wound instantly appearing on its body, with blood dripping down.
Chen Shu, hearing the three praise him for being sinister, instantly beamed with pride.
"Awooo!"
The husky became incredibly excited, its agile limbs constantly digging into the ground.
It somehow conjured five fireballs.
Chen Shu remained calm. Who stipulated that skills could only be released verbally?
"This isn't right!"
Even Fang Si was a little stunned. The degree of mastery this guy had over skills was too abnormal!
"Boom!"
The Black Lightning Bird frantically dodged, but was still hit by a fireball.
However, the husky's attack wasn't over!
An ice ball flew over rapidly, exuding a chilling aura.
The Black Lightning Bird's wings were covered in lightning, greatly increasing its agility, and it narrowly dodged the ice ball.
But just as Lu Zhining breathed a sigh of relief,
The ice ball beside the Black Lightning Bird unexpectedly exploded on its own. Although it didn't hit directly, it at least served as a brief control effect.
"Awooo!"
The husky's intelligent eyes emitted a blue light, coupled with its handsome appearance, it looked quite intimidating.
In an instant, a strange lightning bolt appeared above the Black Lightning Bird, striking it directly!
Although it was lightning-elemental itself and naturally had high resistance, it still sustained an injury.
【Continuous Assault】 was now Lv3, increasing damage by 5% each time.
【Lightning Strike】 was the fourth skill released, with its power already having an additional 15% bonus.
"What is this? An all-attribute contracted spirit?!"
Lu Zhining exclaimed, not expecting to be suppressed by a D-grade elemental beast right from the start.
The Black Lightning Bird's eyes were filled with rage, and it began to counterattack!
A dark lightning ball instantly condensed in its beak.
"Chit!"
The lightning ball tore through the air and directly slammed towards the husky.
At this moment, the slime, which had been dormant, stood in front and swallowed the lightning ball whole!
"Huh?! It ate it?!"
Lu Zhining's mouth agape, her eyes filled with shock.
The slime had now used its Dream Eater skill, its elemental resistance was incredibly high, and it directly swallowed the lightning ball.
"Burp~~"
It let out a satisfied belch, and simultaneously used the skill 【Charge】!
