Chapter 129: Chapter 124 What about School?
The large-bodied Tongue Licker was now hanging in mid-air with both feet off the ground. Besides falling downward, it couldn’t move in any other direction, and if Yaobao could launch a fast enough attack, it was practically a sitting duck.
Unfortunately, considering the distance between them, Yaobao wouldn’t be able to land a hit on Tongue Licker still descending from the air with such attack speed.
It should target the spot where the fireball had hit, which was also where Tongue Licker was expected to land.
Having analyzed the situation in front of her, Qiao Sang was about to speak up.
Who would have thought, just at the moment she finished her analysis, Yaobao seemed to sense her thoughts, and with one open mouth, a basketball-sized Spark was launched toward the spot she had pictured in her mind.
Right as Tongue Licker touched down, its injured footpad made intimate contact with the ground still hot and littered with embers, and it valiantly endured without making a sound.
...
However, the next second met it head-on with the terrifyingly energetic ball of flames.
“Tongue Licker!!!”
That was the advantage of striking first, as if it were executed well, one could entirely take control of the combat rhythm.
Everyone was dumbfounded.
“How does it feel like Qiao Sang is getting the upper hand…” Wang Jihang blurted out.
He was the last one left in the human combat group.
“You’re not seeing things,” Lu Liangye nodded solemnly.
He no longer harbored any feelings of comparison towards Qiao Sang.
If she had been only a little stronger than him, he might have been reluctant to acknowledge it, but now that she was leagues ahead of him in all aspects, all he could feel was envy and admiration.
“Tongue Licking,” Qin Wen said calmly.
Tongue Licking?
Qiao Sang paused for a second, then remembered Xiao Xunbao, the Treasure-seeking Ghost. She recalled that Xiao Xunbao also had this skill, where it would lick with its tongue, and there was a chance to paralyze the opponent.
But that would require close proximity to be effective.
Logically, Water-type Pet Beasts were more suited for long-range attacks, especially since they were slower on land compared to in water.
Did Tongue Licker learn some kind of secret move that would unexpectedly reach her side?
“Yaobao,” Qiao Sang simply called out the name without further comment.
“Yaobao!”
Yaobao responded with a sharp and vigilant look in its eyes.
Tongue Licker, standing in place, extended its long tongue and then… began to lick its own wound…
Qiao Sang: “…”
Yaobao: “…”
What better time to attack than now!
Just as Qiao Sang was thinking this, a blue glow emanated from Yaobao, and for an instant, Tongue Licker stiffened and couldn’t move.
Qin Wen froze, dumbstruck. Was that Telekinesis?
How could it be Telekinesis?! Wasn’t it supposed to be a Fire Attribute Beast?!
Qiao Sang’s mind raced, knowing that with Tongue Licker’s abilities, it would likely break free from control soon, and Yaobao’s telekinesis wasn’t strong enough to inflict substantial damage on Tongue Licker. She would have to use this short window of control to land a high-damage attack.
“Mars Rain!”
Yaobao’s head tilted back, gathering energy within.
But at the same moment, the blue light around it dispersed, and Tongue Licker was free from the control.
Qiao Sang hesitated, this wasn’t what she had in mind!
She had thought that while still under control, the Mars Rain would descend, making it absolutely impossible for Tongue Licker to avoid.
With Yaobao’s current energy, Mars Rain couldn’t cover the entire field, and an uncontrolled Tongue Licker should have the ability to dodge it.
But now the telekinesis was gone.
Could it be that Yaobao couldn’t release two skills at the same time?
No, that couldn’t be right. When deploying Flame Tooth, Yaobao could also launch a fierce charge simultaneously.
Was it an issue of differing attributes, or was this something that had to be trained to be achieved?
While Qiao Sang was pondering, Qin Wen’s heart was pounding wildly, and she quickly called an end to the combat.
“Enough! The battle ends here!”
If she hadn’t misheard, the Mars Rain was what Qiao Sang had just called out, right?!
That Mars Rain?!
