Boom! Boom!
Facing the siege of three S-class contracted spirits, the Flame Bird was wounded again, but it continued to pull, seizing opportunities to blast skills at the Water Prison.
Five long minutes passed, and the entire audience gradually fell silent, feeling a sense of dread. On the stage, the Flame Bird's body was covered in blood, with wounds all over, some from lightning, some from ice, and some from dark attributes. No matter the injury, it looked horrific. Its right wing even drooped, but the Flame Bird persisted.
Boom!
Finally, the incredibly resilient Water Prison shattered. The Slime successfully broke free, its massive body once again exuding a terrifying pressure! Chen Shu breathed a sigh of relief, not expecting the Flame Bird to hold out for so long.
The freed Slime immediately unleashed Charge and Violent Sitting Kill, leaping into the air and locking onto the Shadow Blood-Eyed Bird. Xie Fengyu and the other two remained calm; although the Slime broke free earlier, it didn't derail their plan. The Extreme Ice Horn Deer shook its head, its horn emitting light, and a frost instantly appeared, attempting to control the Slime. At this moment, the Slime's Tenacity skill had ended.
Gurgle!
Chen Shu frowned and instantly used Terrifying Roar. The Slime's speed plummeted, but the opponent's three contracted spirits were also immobilized. A close call? Chen Shu's brow furrowed; the three contracted spirits quickly recovered, failing to pin down the Shadow Blood-Eyed Bird. The Sky Purple Thunder Beast roared, and another lightning ball instantly arrived. The paralysis effect took hold again, and with various control skills, they managed to drag out the effect of Violent Sitting Kill until it ended.
Boom!
The massive Slime landed helplessly, causing the stage to tremble slightly. Chen Shu's gaze was calm as he continuously sought an opportunity; with his formidable defense, he could hold on until the next skill cooldown. Shortly after, Chen Shu realized something was wrong. No way… The three contracted spirits continuously threw control skills: slows, paralysis, stuns, and other personal negative status effects appeared one after another. The three had formed a complete control loop! Although skills like slows were soft controls, they affected the effect of Charge, preventing the Slime from attacking its target. How could a slow Slime possibly catch up to an S-class contracted spirit!
Damn, it's infinite control, this is unsolvable! It's truly amazing. Will Nanjang City lose just like this? A large number of spectators exclaimed, not expecting Nancang First High School to have such a tactic! While this tactic wouldn't be as effective in team battles, Chen Shu was the sole pillar for Nanjang City. By continuously controlling the Slime, they could easily secure victory!
So, the Water Prison was meant to counter my Tenacity. Chen Shu finally understood; without the Tenacity buff, the control skills now showed their full effect. As the genius team of Nancang Province's top high school, they were bound to have the strength!
Am I going to lose? Chen Shu sighed. If it were a solo battle, the Slime would undoubtedly be the absolute king, but unfortunately, team battles truly held him back. However, even if he lost, Chen Shu would still be hailed as the top high school student in Nancang Province.
Hiss!
At that very moment, a clear cry echoed through the battle arena! The Flame Bird's eyes were filled with stubbornness as it continuously flapped its wings and flew high into the sky again.
Do you have to fight so hard? You can still fight?! It's not worth it for just a ranking! The entire audience was shocked. The Flame Bird had already lost its combat ability; fighting forcefully now was purely based on willpower. Xu Xiaoyu's unyielding spirit influenced her contracted spirit, causing it to spread its wings and soar again!
Xiao Yu, give up! Chen Shu frowned and shook his head. The Flame Bird was at its limit; if it continued to fight, there was even a possibility of death. It's just a Flame Bird, not a phoenix reborn!
Seize the opportunity! Xu Xiaoyu clenched her fists slightly, still not recalling the Flame Bird. Although Nancang First High School's tactic was domineering, it could be broken if someone interrupted the control loop. The Flame Bird's eyes flickered with skill light, fighting covered in blood, it directly charged at the slowest contracted spirit, the Extreme Ice Horn Deer!
Captain, what should we do? Teammate Su Weiyun asked, finding herself in a dilemma. If she ignored the Flame Bird, her contracted spirit would be injured, but if she used a skill, it would break the control loop.
Xie Fengyu said, You deal with the Flame Bird first! Instantly, the Flame Bird and the Extreme Ice Horn Deer clashed fiercely! The outcome was obvious; the Flame Bird was once again injured and had no power to resist. But at least it temporarily tied down one S-class contracted spirit.
Gurgle~~ The Slime used its Charge skill and rammed towards the other two S-class contracted spirits. Finally, the Golden Slime could display its might! Control them first! The Shadow Blood-Eyed Bird and the Sky Purple Thunder Beast instantly unleashed their remaining control skills, delaying it for a period. But Charge's level was too high; its effect had not yet ended.
Boom, boom, boom! The Slime was finally free of negative effects, its speed climbing to its peak! Seeing the distance closing, it unleashed Violent Sitting Kill, its target directly aimed at the Sky Shadow Blood-Eyed Bird! The opponent was an aerial type, so its defense must be extremely low.
Hiss! The Blood-Eyed Bird let out a cry, panic in its eyes, and immediately flapped its wings to fly higher.
Whoosh! The Slime opened its massive mouth, releasing Wind Breath and Wind Mastery simultaneously, directly reversing its flight direction. Too fast! Jiang Mo clenched his fists, his expression extremely solemn, as the Slime instantly closed the distance. Now, the Sky Purple Thunder Beast below had no skills and could only watch.
I can hold on! I must hold on! Jiang Mo muttered, as if hypnotizing himself.
Ahhh!!! A scream came, the Shadow Blood-Eyed Bird was directly pinned by the Slime's giant backside, its eyeballs about to pop out. Only contracted spirits that had truly experienced it knew how fierce the Slime's backside was!
Gurgle! Gurgle! Chen Shu showed no mercy; he had to eliminate the opponent quickly! The Slime continuously made joyful sounds, shaking its body rapidly, wishing it could crush the Shadow Blood-Eyed Bird into powder.
Enough! Enough! Jiang Mo felt a connection and immediately spoke up. I can hold on, my foot! With that, he directly recalled the Shadow Blood-Eyed Bird. He didn't want to leave any sequelae for his contracted spirit for the sake of a competition. Initial S-class contracted spirits were extremely precious; even upon becoming a high-level Beast Tamer, they remained core members.
I'll handle it from here! Chen Shu's expression shifted as he spoke. Now that they were missing the Shadow Blood-Eyed Bird, they could no longer continuously control the Slime. Xu Xiaoyu nodded and recalled her dying Flame Bird. Only three contracted spirits remained on the field. The S-class Sky Purple Thunder Beast and Extreme Ice Horn Deer stood together, looking at the giant monster in front of them, they seemed a little fearful. The Shadow Blood-Eyed Bird's scream just now was still fresh, truly making listeners sad and the onlookers weep.
