Super Beast Tamer - Chapter 20
Chapter 20: The Super-Grade Beast Was A Fish
As soon as the Icicles River Carp leaped out, the water column turned into icicles with a bang, shattering to the ground.
When the Icicles River Carp was summoned, the bystanders exclaimed in surprise.
“Wow, I have never seen such a beautiful beast.”
“You are not the only one. I have not seen it, as well. If I see this at the auction, even if I have to spend all my fortune, I will definitely get this beast.”
“Are you dreaming? Don’t you know that this is the unique beast of the Icicles River Carp clan? All those nonsense about auctions? Don’t be a laughingstock!”
Zheng Qing, who summoned the Icicles River Carp, had a proud look on his face. The beast he used was indeed different from ordinary beasts.
As early as thousands of years ago, many top-notch Beast Tamers had begun to devote their efforts to obtaining specific beasts for their own use.
They kept developing their beasts’ abilities, seeking to achieve excellence in rearing and in terms of using spirit cores and matching them with skills books. They even tried their best to have exceptional performances in battles.
All the clans’ descendants also used the same kind of specific beasts. Therefore, they gradually became what people hailed as the “Beast Tamer Clans”. They were generally named after the beasts that they used.
Like Zheng Qing, people might not know who he was if he was mentioned. However, if someone talked about the Icicles River Carp clan, others would know what they were talking about.
Chen An was not to be outdone by him. He went on to summon Dou Buxiang.
Dou Buxiang had integrated with Boulder Flower. When it was summoned, a purple-red multi-petal flower spun rapidly. Dou Buxiang charged down while stepping on the petals, standing obediently next to Chen An.
Chen An touched his head, getting ready to take the first move!
The Light Cone that was instantly released flew by like a meteor.
Zheng Qing smiled slightly and easily dodged the attack. “This is not bad. It’s very fast. However, it’s a pity that compared to my Icicles River Carp, it’s simply displaying one’s slight skill before an expert!”
The moment he turned sideways, the Icicles River Carp swam beside him, and there seemed to be water next to him, with undercurrents surging.
Chen An could clearly feel that Zheng Qing was indeed not simple with just one blow. He was ten times stronger than those that he had fought before.
“Icicles!” Zheng Qing launched a fierce attack. The Icicles River Carp swam next to him, and the water around him formed a small number of icicles, with extremely sharp points.
Zheng Qing controlled those icicles with a triumphant expression. “Although you can’t resist a single move of mine, it is your honor for someone like me to fight with you personally.”
With that, the Icicles River Carp swung its long tail angrily, attacking him with its icicles.
Chen An frowned as the speed was astonishingly fast, and Dou Buxiang had not integrated any spirit core with speed attributes. For that, it really was no match for Icicles River Carp.
It was too late to hide now. It was better to fight it head-on!
Pink-purple flowers appeared out of thin air. Initially, it was a small and inconspicuous flower. But in a very short period of time, the petals stretched outward and layered on top of each other.
When extended to the limit, it seemed to be an inviolable shield, totally covering Chen An.
The icicles of the Icicles River Carp were not to be underestimated. The number was huge and overwhelming.
It was alright to hit the center of the flower shield, but they directly penetrated the flower shield when the icicles hit the edge. Dou Buxiang immediately rushed over, blocking the gaps.
This was the biggest flaw of the Boulder Flower—it could not resist all attacks.
Zheng Qing chuckled. “It seems that I have underestimated the enemy. Your beast and what you have are slightly more than what I imagined. It’s indeed good to be able to block thousands of icicles. Unfortunately, you will not be so lucky next time.”
Indeed, with the one blow just now, the Boulder Flower shield had gaps around it. If there was another round of attacks, it would shatter right away. He could not use this move to deal with Zheng Qing again.
“Alright, it’s over. Don’t blame this for being cruel. De Yuan doesn’t welcome people like you.” Zheng Qing ran forward quickly. The Boulder Flower shield had yet to be put aside.
Everyone who watched the match exclaimed, “It’s over. This person simply looked down upon his opponent.”
“Well… just take a good look. He is from one of the clans. There is no way we can be compared to him. it is already very rare to see him here.”
Everyone believed that Chen An would undoubtedly lose.
Even Chen An, who was in the midst of a battle, could feel that defeat was getting closer to him.
Upon seeing that Zheng Qing was about to launch another attack, he would really lose if he did not do anything.
Zheng Qing’s movements were very fast. He stepped with his legs, and a column of ice blue water suddenly appeared. Then, he leaped into the air using the force of the water column.
Behind him, the Icicles River Carp suddenly turned into a round carp totem, radiant and glittering.
“It’s over!” Zheng Qing shouted and threw a fist.
It hit the center of the Boulder Flower shield, and the flower shield automatically counterattacked right away.
But to Zheng Qing, the weak counterattack was useless. He was not affected by it.
Click—
The flower shield shattered. Chen An’s only defense had been broken.
The people around them looked at the fragments of the flower shield in shock. They fell to the ground like glass fragments.
But just when the flower shield was about to fall to the ground, they heard a sound they had never heard of.
It sounded like an eagle had flown past, and the wind echoed.
Zheng Qing, floating in the air, stared at himself in disbelief. It was only a small blow, but it happened when he was defenseless, nonetheless.
He backed again and again. The Icicles River Carp totem behind him did not manage to support him. When he moved about in a chaotic state, it gradually dissipated. He could only fall from the air and crash heavily on the ground.
No one was able to react to the sudden change of events. After a long period of silence, someone finally shifted his gaze to Chen An.
At that moment, Chen An stood upright, with two fingers close to his ears, a little silver light dissipating around him. It hovered on his fingertips until Chen An relaxed his fingers.
Someone slow to react lowered his voice and asked, “What just happened?”
“I don’t know. It looks like Chen An won, did he? How did he defeat Zheng Qing? I didn’t even see it clearly.”
“You’re not the only one. I only saw a flash of white light swishing across the air, and Zheng Qing fell to the ground.”
In fact, other than the bystanders, who had not seen what happened clearly, Zheng Qing himself did not understand as well. He got up from the ground, unable to return to his senses.
There was a burst of white light the moment he broke the Boulder Flower shield. He vaguely saw… what it seemed to be a silver feather.
He was unconvinced and asked Chen An loudly, “What did you just do?”
Chen An thought for a while. He did not name this move. Perhaps, he should make it simple by naming it after the beast. “It is Silver Feather.”
That was the Silver-Feathered Eagle’s skill, which Chen An had accidentally discovered during the indexes’ previous integration.
Chen An breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing everyone’s astonishment, he could not help but sigh in his mind. Everyone knew of the beast, Silver-Feathered Eagle, but they did not know that these kinds of beasts had talents yet to be developed.
