Beast Taming: Slaughter Atlas-Chapter 439 - 385: Finals

The battles for the remaining four groups also concluded one after another.

The ones advancing were Qilin Academy, Vermilion Bird Academy, Cyan Dragon Academy, White Tiger Academy, and Holy Spirit Academy.

As for Black Tortoise Academy, they were slightly unlucky, drawing White Tiger Academy as their opponent. Initially, they held a significant advantage, but after Hu Pei’Er revealed her trump card, Black Tortoise Academy could only concede.

Hu Pei’Er’s White Tiger unleashed terrifying Attack Power; even the Black Tortoise, known for its Defense, couldn’t withstand it.

The next event is the individual ranking battles.

The list of the top five is out: Qiao Chentao from Qilin Academy, Hu Pei’Er from White Tiger Academy, Su Tianming from Black Tortoise Academy, Li Muxin from Vermilion Bird Academy, and Chu Chen from Cyan Dragon Academy.

The individual ranking matches will be conducted in a round-robin format, where everyone will face the other four contestants in battle.

First to take the stage is Qiao Chentao from Qilin Academy, and his opponent is Su Tianming from Black Tortoise Academy.

The two are old acquaintances; naturally, they exchanged some pleasantries after taking the ring.

"It’s been a year since we last met, Qiao Chentao. I wonder how much you’ve improved," Su Tianming said in a deep voice.

"Don’t worry, it should be enough to defeat you."

"You’re quite arrogant, but this time, your real opponent isn’t me; it’s Hu Pei’Er from White Tiger Academy."

Upon hearing this, Qiao Chentao’s expression grew more serious.

He had also witnessed in the team competition the terrifying power Hu Pei’Er displayed at the last moment, which even he didn’t dare claim to withstand.

"Alright, since we have an auxiliary team, let’s not waste time. How about we decide the victory in one strike?" Qiao Chentao said in a deep voice.

"Haha, great, I was thinking the same."

With that, they each summoned their Guardian Beasts.

Qiao Chentao’s Guardian Beast was an Earth Rock Holy Steed, bearing a seventy-percent resemblance to the Sacred Beast Qilin. Its entire body was covered in earth-colored Scale Armor, standing fifty meters tall, with a body length reaching one hundred meters. It had a pair of large Deer Horns and cloud patterns on its forehead.

Its physique combined the elegance of a deer with the majesty of a lion, its back resembled a tiger, and its belly was as soft as a musk deer.

Its limbs were long and strong, with hooves like those of a horse, and a tail like that of a cow.

Su Tianming summoned a Heavy Water Profound Turtle, bearing a seventy-percent resemblance to the Sacred Beast Black Tortoise.

Its shoulder height was approximately forty meters, with a body length reaching sixty meters. It had a turtle body and a snake tail, with a dragon-like head. Its entire body was water blue; the diameter of its shell reached fifty meters, and its weight rivaled a small mountain. Its limbs were extremely sturdy, and each step weighed a thousand pounds.

Seeing this, neither had the intention to probe, and they directly revealed their trump cards.

Rich Earth Element and Water Element converged towards each beast, and their auras began to madly climb.

In the blink of an eye, their auras settled at King Level Five.

Seeing this, Qiao Chentao took the lead and said, "Use Desert Funeral."

The Earth Rock Holy Steed let out a low roar, and the arena began to shake. A large amount of sand and dust condensed under its feet, quickly forming a tsunami of sand under its control.

Upon seeing this, Su Tianming shouted in a deep voice, "Use Raging Wave."

The Heavy Water Profound Turtle let out a roar, instantly condensing a large amount of water droplets under its feet, gathering them together to form an ocean under its control.

As the Desert Funeral came roaring in, the Raging Wave met it head-on.

"Boom Boom Boom"

The stage echoed with violent booms, as the ocean waves and sand collided and wore each other out.

As time passed by the second, the Heavy Water Profound Turtle gradually showed signs of fatigue.

This wasn’t because it was inferior to the Earth Rock Holy Steed, but due to Attribute Suppression, it needed to consume more Star Power to resist the Earth Rock Holy Steed’s attacks.

A few moments later, the Heavy Water Profound Turtle showed a defeated posture.

Seeing this, Su Tianming said rather helplessly, "Forget it, I concede."

He was well aware that even if he persisted, the outcome wouldn’t change. Rather than struggling, it was better to concede straightforwardly.

Next up in the second group were Chu Chen and Li Muxin from Vermilion Bird Academy.

Chu Chen was the first to take the stage, as a woman who looked strikingly similar to Li Muwan walked up slowly.

From their names, the two women should be twins, though it was unclear who the elder was.

However, the answer came quickly from the other.

"So you are the one who defeated my sister?" Li Muxin said coldly.

Chu Chen shrugged and replied, "I guess so."

Upon hearing this, Li Muxin’s face immediately showed anger, pointing at Chu Chen, she said angrily, "You really are arrogant; I will surely avenge my sister." With that, she summoned a Flaming Sea Bird.

Hearing this, Chu Chen couldn’t help but feel speechless at Li Muxin’s willful nature.

However, he had no intention of arguing with her.

Shadow Kill glared at the Flaming Sea Bird, recalling an experience of almost being scorched, and it let out a screech, ready to avenge itself.

Yet, Chu Chen restrained it. The match hadn’t started, and striking now would be considered a sneak attack, which would lead to disqualification.

Shortly after, as the referee’s words concluded, Shadow Kill immediately showcased its trump cards, eager to swiftly resolve its opponent and avoid the scorching flames once more.

Seeing this, Li Muxin’s expression changed abruptly. She hadn’t expected Chu Chen to employ such an aggressive tactic, unveiling his trump card as soon as the match commenced.

However, she was happy to oblige; with a cry, the Flaming Sea Bird also revealed its trump card.

Soon, the Flaming Sea Bird was again defeated; Shadow Kill’s Domain was too large and its suppression too strong. Even with preparation, it couldn’t prevail, as the Flaming Sea Bird’s Domain barely stretched to fifty meters.

Domain expansion becomes harder as it progresses, as it involves the Guardian Beast’s control over the Element.

Biting her silver teeth angrily, Li Muxin walked off the stage.

Chu Chen had just gotten a brief rest before his second match commenced against Su Tianming from Black Tortoise Academy.

The Heavy Water Profound Turtle’s strength was on par with the Flaming Sea Bird; moreover, its defensive capabilities were formidable.

Shadow Kill used the Demon-Slaying Blade Domain twice to finally defeat it.

At present, Chu Chen had secured two consecutive victories, meaning he was already in the top three, though relaxing was not an option.

Also achieving two consecutive wins were Qiao Chentao and Hu Pei’Er.

Having been repeatedly beaten by Chu Chen and the others, Su Tianming and Li Muxin’s expressions turned exceedingly awkward.

Chu Chen’s third battle commenced; this time his opponent was Qiao Chentao from Qilin Academy.

"You’re strong, but unfortunately, you encountered me," Qiao Chentao said confidently.

Raising an eyebrow, Chu Chen replied, "Really? You seem quite confident."

"Confidence stems from strength. I will show you the gap between us; perhaps your future achievements may surpass mine, but not now."

"Oh, let’s wait and see then."

Upon hearing his reply, Qiao Chentao said no more, waving his hand to summon the Earth Rock Holy Steed.

Seeing this, Chu Chen likewise immediately summoned Shadow Kill.

Neither had any intention of testing; as soon as the referee’s voice dropped, they revealed their trump cards.

Certainly, Qiao Chentao was immensely powerful, with the Earth Rock Holy Steed’s Earth Domain spanning nearly sixty meters. Its control over the Earth Element was exceptional.

In terms of physical Defense alone, it was not on par with the Heavy Water Profound Turtle, but combined with Elemental Power, the Earth Rock Holy Steed’s Defense Power surpassed that of the Heavy Water Profound Turtle.

However, the Earth Rock Holy Steed was eventually defeated. Chu Chen directly used amplification on Shadow Kill’s Demon-Slaying Blade Domain, enhancing the skill’s power by eighty percent.

In this scenario, Shadow Kill employed the Demon-Slaying Blade Domain twice to defeat it.

Soon after Chu Chen’s battle ended, Qiao Chentao and Hu Pei’Er’s match began.

The Frost White Tiger unleashed its full power, leaving the Earth Rock Holy Steed helpless in defense, leading to its eventual defeat once more.

As a result, Chu Chen and Hu Pei’Er both secured three consecutive victories and advanced directly to the final showdown.
