My starting summon is a small skeleton-Chapter 175 - 173 Easily Taken Down

In the spectator stands.

As Little Griffin and Little Skeleton entered the arena, the audience began to tense up.

They knew the decisive battle was at hand!

Even the Hengheng Monster in the stands tightened her grip on her cat.

Although she wanted to see Lu Wu cry after being beaten, she was more eager to see Lu Wu defeat Fang Bai and Little Skeleton beat Little Griffin.

Not because her opinion of Lu Wu had changed, it was mainly because Little Griffin was just too detestable—it had almost killed her Mimi!

Yes, that was the reason.

...

Meanwhile, over on the field of competition.

Fang Bai was about ready to flip the table!

"Referee, I want to report him, he’s switched pigs!"

Fang Bai had been watching the additional matches.

He knew Little Skeleton had a pig!

He had even specifically devised a strategy to counter it.

But damn it, the pig that Little Skeleton brought out this time was completely different from the last additional match!

The species had changed!

Last time it was a White Bone Wild Boar, this time it was an Iron Bone Wild Boar.

Originally white, now they were all black, with greatly improved power.

This was cheating so blatant that Fang Bai wanted to curse aloud.

"No problem, no problem, no problem, he just changed three pigs, right?

I got this! My Little Griffin can take on four alone!

Yes, once Little Griffin uses its skill, it can straight up reach Boss Level, crushing four Elite Level ones as easily as eating food and drinking water, right?"

And as Fang Bai had just finished bolstering his own spirit, Little Skeleton laid out the three pigs sideways, arranging them in a triangle and enclosing itself in the center.

In that moment, the three pigs formed a pig-wall, protecting Little Skeleton securely on all sides.

Once the pig-wall was set, Little Skeleton beckoned to the dumbfounded Little Griffin across from it.

At the same time, the Big Move floating behind Little Skeleton’s back emitted a cheeky voice.

"Come on over! Come and hit me!"

Fang Bai’s face turned dark on the spot.

"Provoking, huh? Alright, Little Griffin will meet its demands!"

At his command, Little Griffin’s wings shook as it dove straight for Little Skeleton.

The audience immediately tensed up as Little Griffin pounced.

Although Little Griffin wasn’t nearly as fast as the Gale Wolf from the previous match, its pouncing force was clearly not something the Gale Wolf could compare to.

The beast’s arrival was heralded by its sound.

The roar, filled with the aura of the king of beasts, kicked off the battle.

Although this Griffin was still young, the roar was filled with dominance.

And it wasn’t just a simple pounce kill; as its figure moved, a gale rose with it, and several Wind Blades opened the way with the roar, its own form following close behind.

This tactic was so old—002 already!

A small team of three Summoned Beasts, all using the same routine.

No creativity at all.

The Little Griffin’s tactics might have been more polished, but sadly, they were still useless.

The roar could only add some atmosphere, some presence.

The Wind Blades hadn’t even reached Little Skeleton before they were blocked by the pigs in front of it.

Although it wasn’t as effortless as Tuantuan blocking the Gale Wolf’s Wind Blades, the blades only left a shallow cut on the pigs’ skeletons.

As for the Griffin’s own pounce kill, that was even more unspeakable.

It was smart enough to aim for Little Skeleton over the heads of the three pigs, which was a potential breakthrough point, but also a trap left for it.

As soon as Little Griffin arrived, a Bone Prison appeared out of nowhere, and all three pigs simultaneously turned and charged towards Little Griffin.

If not for Little Griffin’s quick reflexes, its wings flapping to break free from the Bone Prison before the pigs got to it, it might have been squished into a biscuit by the three pigs.

After the first wave of probing attacks ended fruitlessly, Fang Bai didn’t care and quickly organized several more rounds.

Obviously, he was a very experienced Summoner.

Although he was holding a Big Move, he didn’t throw it immediately but tried to understand the situation as much as possible before using it.

Only after understanding the situation could he open the Big Move to take down his opponent in one fell swoop.

In this situation, Little Griffin launched several consecutive attacks, each different in method and highly aggressive, but each ended in failure.

Fang Bai was not disappointed by this.

At this moment, his mind was rapidly spinning, sorting through the information gleaned from these probings.

Just as he was nearly finished gathering the information and had begun to notice the flaws in Little Skeleton’s defense, that cheeky voice from Little Skeleton’s Big Move rang out again.

"Come on over! Come and hit me!"

At this moment, the previously tense atmosphere of the entire arena was shattered.

The audience burst into laughter.

Fang Bai’s face turned particularly ugly.

He never thought he would be mocked by Little Skeleton one day; such humiliation was unbearable for him.

"Activate the Bloodline Power of Little Griffin for me!"

At Fang Bai’s command, Little Griffin unleashed its Big Move directly.

With the Bloodline Power activated, a cyan aura emanated from Little Griffin’s body, instantly boosting it from Elite 3 Stars to Boss Level.

"You think hitting you is enough? I’m not just going to hit you—I’ll twist off your head!

Little Griffin, Fierce Wind Blade!"

Little Griffin spread its wings and dozens of Wind Blades slashed forward.

Seeing the Big Move, Little Skeleton hurriedly had his pig activate Iron Bone Form, planning to have the pig absorb the damage.

But who would have thought? The Wind Blades, expertly manipulated by Little Griffin, didn’t hit the pig. Instead, they slipped through the gaps in the pig’s skeleton and headed straight for Little Skeleton behind it.

Just as everyone was too stunned to react, Fang Bai was already awestruck by his own cunning.

"Didn’t see that coming, did you? I’ve got tricks up my sleeve!"

Fang Bai felt overwhelmingly smug.

In just a few rounds, he found the vulnerability, a Must Kill!

But before the smile on his face fully formed, the pig rolled over. The Wind Blades that were meant to pass through the pig got trapped in its bone framework instead.

Even though the pig’s skeleton was shattered, scattering bone fragments and even severing a few bones, Little Skeleton behind it remained untouched.

Fang Bai was dumbfounded—what kind of move was that?

He’d been busy for nothing, and all it took was a flip of the pig to thwart his efforts.

This was already a heavy blow for Fang Bai, but to make things worse, Lu Wu casually added insult to injury right then.

"Indeed, I didn’t expect all your effort would amount to just this."

Meanwhile, Little Skeleton’s Big Move started taunting again.

"You coming over? Come hit me!"

Fang Bai flew into a rage.

"Damn! Little Griffin, give me..."

"Crack!"

His command was cut short by a peal of thunder.

Clearly, Little Skeleton had started to counterattack with a Thunder Strike.

However, Fang Bai wasn’t the least bit worried. Little Griffin instantly burst forth and dodged Little Skeleton’s Thunder Strike.

Having successfully evaded, Fang Bai, who had been continuously frustrated, finally regained some confidence and mocked,

"Surprised, aren’t you? I was well-prepared for your Thunder!"

"Crack."

Before he could finish, a second Thunder Strike fell, and Little Griffin, having just exhausted its energy and unable to muster new strength, couldn’t evade and was struck down from mid-air.

"Surprised, aren’t you? My Little Skeleton can smash two at once!"

Smack!

A hefty slap landed on Fang Bai’s face, leaving him with a swollen nose and bruises.

And the most devastating thing wasn’t just the slap in the face—the condition of Little Griffin was far worse.

The moment it was struck by lightning, the three pigs beside Little Skeleton simultaneously used Bone Shooting.

Three thick, sturdy bone spikes flew out, nailing Little Griffin to the ground.

At the same time, Little Skeleton continued to charge up.

Seeing this, Fang Bai’s face drastically changed, and he was about to immediately concede defeat.

Just then, Lu Wu added another jab.

"Captain Fang, you’re not thinking of conceding, are you?

You’ve never conceded before. You’re not skilled in this area. Do you need me to teach you? I’m quite experienced!"

With Lu Wu’s comment, Fang Bai’s face turned particularly unsightly as if he had eaten something disgusting, but still, he shouted "I concede" right away.

Yet it was still a step too late.

Almost simultaneously with his concession, another thunderbolt from Little Skeleton struck, nearly killing Little Griffin.

Although it didn’t die, the injuries suggested it wouldn’t recover any time soon.

"Lu Wu!"

Fang Bai’s eyes almost shot fire.

Lu Wu frowned and chided, "Sigh, Little Skeleton really doesn’t know how to behave.

It’s Captain Fang’s first time conceding; you should have given him some time to prepare.

Sorry, Captain Fang, I didn’t expect Little Skeleton to be this fierce, inflicting such a heavy injury on your Little Griffin. That’s terrible, you still have to contest for third place with 003 tomorrow. Can it still perform with injuries like these?"

"Ah! Next time you concede, you should be more decisive and quick about it, instead of dawdling. If you’re beaten, just admit defeat. It’s not shameful!

But since you’ve done it once, it’ll be better the next time around, practice makes perfect!"

After Lu Wu went on, Fang Bai’s morale exploded on the spot!
