Chapter 70: Chapter 70: Who’s Going to Stop Him! _1
Translator: 549690339 |
Xu Ran was completely unaware of the stir his breach of defense was causing among those in front of the TV.
At this moment, through Ziyun’s vision, he saw the adversaries closing in on him, a strange look flickered across his face.
“Sixteen… why so many?” Hu Zhong, not quite staying calm, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, “Brother Xu, why do you attract such animosity?”
“Maybe they think I’m an easy target.” Xu Ran smiled casually.
Hu Zhong’s face turned somewhat embarrassed; initially, he too had viewed it that way.
-Let them see what we’re made of.” Xu Ran’s voice took on an invigorating tone, and he yelled, “Attack us all together!”
At these words, all the other competitors in the area turned to look at him.
Organizing their pet beasts to encircle the four thousand-point competitors, it was very awkward for them to realize that those four competitors were right beside them, and they, the Beast Masters who were commanding in battle, were in the same area.
This somehow gave a feeling of face-to-face plotting.
Especially when the pet beasts did not hide their identities and who was taking action against whom was obvious at a glance, it was awkward.
To avoid the awkwardness, they unanimously didn’t look at each other, focusing their gazes on the direction of the competition area instead.
Yet, Xu Ran went the unconventional route, not only being openly confrontational but outright provocative.
For a moment, the expressions of the Beast Masters who commanded the pet beasts to surround Ziyun changed.
All together? That’s what you said!
“Well, then we’re not holding back!” One of the competitors was quite straightforward in their response, he immediately commanded his pet beast to make a move.
Although the other competitors didn’t reply verbally, their commands were equally swift.
Various attacks erupted from the air and the ground, targeting Ziyun and the
Big Mouth Ape who were surrounded.
“Brother Xu!” Hu Zhong’s voice had a trace of anxiety.
“Have Big Mouth Ape protect itself.” Xu Ran spoke in a low voice, while instructing Ziyun through the air, “Use Electric Pursue! Show them some colors!”
“Meow-”
Ziyun’s eyes, besieged by numerous attacks, flickered with anticipation.
Such an attack?
It’s not even as good as the customized attack in the training field!
It took a slow step forward, endless purple thunderbolt erupted from its limbs, instantly turning its purple claws into pure elements of thunder.
“Crackle–Zap–”
The sound of the electric arc piercing through the air became sharper, hke a giant stone thrown into a lake. The diffused plasma in the air caused numerous jumping electric flashes.
An energy wind rose up from beneath Ziyun’s feet, spinning and lifting the plasma in the air. In a blink, it became a tangible thunderstorm which swirled rapidly around Ziyun.
In the next instant, Ziyun’s form disappeared from its original spot, appearing in front of a white horse with a single horn and a pair of wings on its back.
This was the Wind Step Horse, a considerably dominant pet beast species among the wind attribute.
At this moment, this ‘child of the storm’ was paralyzed by the electric arcs that were unnoticeably permeating its surroundings. It could do nothing more than stand and watch Ziyun’s paw, wholly transformed into an elemental form, descend upon it.
“Whinny!”
Frenzied dancing electric flashes suddenly emerged from the body of the Wind Step Horse. It fell slowly to the ground, writhing in agony, as its snow-white fur was scorched black by the electricity.
“Boom!!!”
Continuous loud noises echoed behind Ziyun.
This was the late arrival of the combined attack from numerous pet beasts which only landed after the Wind Step Horse fell, at the spot where Ziyun initially was.
Two Star Skill, Starlight Level – Electric Pursue!
Ziyun’s move stunned all the pet beasts and their respective competitors who saw the whole process through their pet beasts’ visions.
So strong?!
Hu Zhong’s eyes widened in surprise, his breath quickened a bit.
I hit the jackpot!
He sharply turned his head, looking at the calm expression on Xu Ran’s face. He suddenly felt a sense of profound respect.
I, Brother Xu, am too terrifying!
Xu Ran neglected Hu Zhong, and after the killing blow from Ziyun, he quickly reminded it, “Ziyun, don’t forget to advertise.”
Oh right! Advertise!
Ziyun, immersed in her killing power, snapped back to reality, quickly located the hidden camera as it looked around.
It twisted its body, positioning the words “Starfire Foster Care Shop” on its clothes in the most conspicuous place, striking an elegant pose.
“Meow-” (Starfire Foster Care Shop, trustworthy!)

Tan Yue collapsed on the sofa, staring at the five eye-catching characters on the screen, feeling as though Xu Ran slapped him in the face again across the distance.
Even though no one was around, he still felt an unprecedented sense of shame.
It’s too much…
It’s too much!
“You still have so many opponents, and you dare to flaunt!” Tan Yue muttered spitefully, “Complacency means death for you!”
However, the moment his words fell, Ziyun’s figure disappeared again.
With a cry of horror, another Pet Beast was defeated by Ziyun’s ghostly speed. Seeing Ziyun twist its body and aim those five characters at the screen once again, Tan Yue felt as if thunder was rumbling in his head.
“You…” He took a deep breath, took out his cellphone and dialed a number, “I don’t believe that the competition organizer would allow you to advertise hke this!”
“I’m going to file a complaint against you!
“What are you guys doing!”
Inside the director’s room, responsible for live broadcast signal transmission, a bald middle-aged leader angrily burst in, “Why did that guy openly insert advertisements in the competition? He didn’t even pay for the advertisement?” “He was already criticized for advertising during the auditions, and this time it’s a live broadcast! This is a major broadcasting incident!”
“Where’s the director? Why didn’t you cut the screen!
“Leader…” The young director stood up in confusion, “You don’t know, I want to cut the screen too…”
“But… the most exciting performance in the whole game is from this side…” With a helpless look, he pointed to the large screen displaying all the pet beasts’ conditions.
“How is that possible?” The bald leader widened his eyes, pushed away the director, “Let me see!”
Glancing over the screen, he saw the Combat Bear Apprentice practicing martial arts in the jungle, the Frost Dust Wolf lounging on an iceberg, waiting to throw off any offenders, the Dark Scale Dragon waiting for other pet beasts to fight…
Then, looking at Ziyun, who was in the thick of the fight, the bald leader fell silent.
“Cunning guy!” The bald leader gritted his teeth, “Can’t you blur him out?! “Well…” The assistant director timidly spoke up, “The pet beast is covered in ads, if we blur it out, we’ll have to blur the beast as well…”
The bald leader fell silent again.
Blur out the contestants’ Pet Beasts?
Wouldn’t the audience scold us?
“You…”
just as the bald leader was about to say something, the director’s excited voice came from beside him.
“The surrounding pet beasts are retreating! We can switch screens now!’
“Then switch!”
“Ah… no can do, Xu Ran’s pet beast is following them, it’s gone berserk!’
Bald leader:”…”
“Damn it! Can’t anyone stop this guy from advertising?
