All My Beasts Are Legendary-Chapter 21 - First Battle

Chapter 21 - First Battle

"Let's sneak over there and lure it into the open!"

Ye Xuan's eyes glimmered as he stared from afar at the Amber Golden Toad mounted on the rock.

The map in his Combat Watch marked not only the danger zones within the Amber Secret Realm, but it also had notes on some monsters.

The Amber Golden Toad was one of them.

According to the introduction, the level of this monster was related to its size.

The bigger the size, the higher the level.

As for its grade, almost all Amber Golden Toads were only at one-star.

Just like with telling a monster's level, it was also extremely simple to tell the grade of a monster within the Amber Secret Realm.

All you had to do was look at their color.

Having one color would make them a one-star.

Having two colors would make them a two-star.

Judging by the size of the Amber Golden Toad in front of him, it should only be an Intermediate-Level Apprentice.

This beast was at the perfect level for him and Lil Wan to practice combat against.

"Alrighty." Lil Wan nodded cautiously. She was anticipating the fight even more than Ye Xuan.

In the Amber Forest not far away, roars of beasts sounded from time to time.

But none of this affected Ye Xuan.

"Let's try our best to make this a sneak attack," Ye Xuan told Lil Wan. "When we get there, Lil Wan, restrain it with your Ironwood Thorn vines."

"Aight." Lil Wan nodded like a little chicken, her eyes gleaming.

It didn't take long for them to close the distance between them and the toad from a hundred meters to about ten meters.

At that moment, the Amber Golden Toad that was mounted on the rock seemingly sensed danger.

Its belly, which was expanding and contracting rapidly, became motionless.

Swoosh!

Seeing this, Lil Wan, who was already ready to go, waved her hand without waiting for Ye Xuan's command and ejected a chain-like Ironwood Thorn vine from her palm. The vine reached the Amber Golden Toad in an instant and swirled around it, tying it up.

The Amber Golden Toad screamed in terror. Its belly bulged as it started struggling violently.

"Let's go!" Ye Xuan said in a low, guttural voice. "We're too close to the lake. We need to move back a little bit. Otherwise, if it jumps into the lake, all our efforts will be in vain."

Lil Wan pursed her lips. Without saying a word, she flew away as hard as she could and used the Ironwood Thorns to sweep the Amber Golden Toad into the air.

This scene left Ye Xuan, who'd been about to grab the Ironwood Thorns to assist Lil Wan in hauling the Amber Golden Toad away, slightly dumbfounded.

He'd never expected that Lil Wan's Mind Energy was already capable of lugging such a weighty object.

Judging by the size of this Amber Golden Toad, it weighed over 200 kilograms—making it far heavier than himself.

Ye Xuan felt as if he had discovered a whole new world.

If Lil Wan could carry such a colossal Amber Golden Toad, wouldn't she be able to take him into the air as well?

Thud!

Ye Xuan glanced at the Amber Golden Toad and discovered that the fall hadn't hurt him in the slightest.

At the same time, it was at this moment that he realized that under Lil Wan's deliberate manipulation, all the barbs on the Ironwood Thorn she was controlling tightly adhered to the vine.

This left him dumbfounded yet again.

He was mesmerized by Lil Wan's astonishing progression.

One must know that only one day had gone by since they'd watched the combat videos.

Croak!

Knowing that it was incapable of fighting Ye Xuan and Lil Wan, the Amber Golden Frog immediately bounced into the air and leaped two meters away, fleeing towards the tiny lake.

"That isn't gonna work!"

Wielding the Black Iron Sword, Ye Xuan moved in a flash and stood in front of the toad, blocking its way.

If it weren't for the fact that he had very limited combat experience, he could probably obliterate two to three Amber Golden Toads by himself.

Swoosh!

Seeing Ye Xuan block its way, the Amber Golden Toad opened its mouth and flicked out its golden tongue...

Which charged quickly towards Ye Xuan.

Ye Xuan shuddered internally.

He waved his sword, using the back of it to parry the attack.

He and Lil Wan weren't trying to kill this Amber Golden Toad.

They just wanted to use it as a target for actual combat.

Swoosh!

However, before Ye Xuan's sword could hit the Amber Golden Toad's tongue, Lil Wan, who was flying above Ye Xuan's head, waved her hand and hurled out yet another Ironwood Thorn.

Like a long steel whip, it landed on the Amber Golden Toad, knocking it back with a snap.

And because it was now too far away, its tongue couldn't strike Ye Xuan.

"Nicely done!" Ye Xuan's eyes brightened.

Unexpectedly, Lil Wan's combat skills were pretty good.

Spending the entire day yesterday watching those videos hadn't been in vain after all.

"Of course. I'm a hard worker." Lil Wan raised her head. The Ironwood Thorn vine in her hand retracted like a snake. Then, it suddenly hardened, its tip becoming a little sharper, and like a spear, it flew out from her hand and plunged towards the Golden Amber Toad.

Swoosh!

Frightened, the Amber Golden Toad quickly jumped away.

"D*mn it! I'm still too slow!"

"We're not in a hurry. Let's take things slow," Ye Xuan consoled. "You're only a high-level apprentice right now. That Ancient Wood Elf belonging to Zhongzhou University's Yu Lingjing was already at the pinnacle of the top-level apprentice rank at the time that video was filmed!"

"Ay-aye."

Lil wan nodded and immediately controlled the Ironwood Thorn vine to assault the Amber Golden Toad.

"I'll stab you!"

"I'll stab you!"

"I'll stab the heck outta ya!"

Lil Wan yelled as she spawned hard, spear-like Ironwood Thorn vines and hurled them at the Amber Golden Toad.

This Amber Golden Toad was completely gold, looking like it was made of golden, translucent amber beads. It wasn't hideous at all, but rather lovely.

But neither Ye Xuan nor Lil Wan had any thoughts of pitying it.

Both the human and elf viewed it as their best target for actual combat.

However, Ye Xuan didn't attack much.

He would only occasionally block the Amber Golden Toad to prevent it from running away.

Or escaping into the Amber Forest.

He was a Beast Tamer, and a Beast Tamer's approach to combat was to manipulate their beasts.

As for the Warrior, he just wants to be able to protect himself.

A few minutes later, Lil Wan said with regret, "Ye Xuan, I think this thing is at its limits."

It had only been a few minutes, and what's more, Lil Wan had deliberately scaled down her attacks and avoided the Amber Golden Toad's vital points.

But this thing was already out of breath, and its hopping speed had become very sluggish.

Ye Xuan shook his head likewise. "Put an end to it then."

In all honesty, this Amber Golden Toad was really suitable for Lil Wan to practice with. It was just that compared to Lil Wan, who had Nature Affinity, it was far behind in endurance.

Spllurgh!

As Ye Xuan's words fell, Lil Wan didn't hesitate. When the Amber Golden Toad Beast jumped into the air, an Ironwood Thorn spear hurled out of Lil Wan's hand, and with a spllurgh, it plunged into its gasping mouth.

Immediately penetrating its body.
