Round 75: Exhibition Competition

Su Ping selected the video with the highest view count and clicked on it to open it. The owner of the video sat behind the crowd, although his position still offered a clear view of the arena.

Su Yanying's opponent was a handsome young man with a refined posture who summoned a silver scaly Thunder Basilisk, a rank nine Astral Pets that usually possessed outstanding talent. It is known as one of the most ferocious pets of the thunder family and can be born with powerful abilities.

The last match was between two thunder-type Astral Pets that had a gigantic level gap that set them apart. Most of the people watching cheered for the Lightning Rat as they all hoped to see another miracle where the underdog won over the strong.

Su Ping was unable to see the number of horns the Thunder Basilisk had due to the poor video quality, but judging from its size, the creature should still be a hatchling at rank six or seventh. The adult Thunder Basilisk was large enough to occupy the entire arena, making a proper match impossible.

At the start of the match, Su Yanying applied a stealth effect to the Lightning Rat over four augmentation so that the mice were harder to detect.

After receiving his orders, the rat ran towards his enemy while creating four shadows as good as his original body.

Many in the audience had seen such a move before, although this would not prevent them from exclaiming in awe anymore.

Su Ping disabled all floating comments that filled the screen so he could see the video better.

Not bad. He knew how to make good use of the rat skills now. Su Ping secretly agreed to Su Yanying's orders.

On the other hand, the young man on the other side of the arena also applied augmentation to his pet using astral runes, although what he used seemed to be fifth rank. He was truly an outstanding genius, as the academy did not help their students reach such a level.

As the Lightning Rat approached, the Thunder Basilisk coated itself with lightning—ini was a typical defensive movement used by thunder-type.

Meanwhile, the Lightning Rat used the same moves that were clearly more powerful and deadly.

The two pets clashed in the middle of the stage and the energy wave caused the video to become blurry. When the static stopped, Su Ping saw the Lightning Rat using the Thunder Slash, which only hit the illusion of the Thunder Basilisk remaining, after which the basilisk bit back on the rat body using its lightning-reinforced fangs.

"Soddy ..." Su Ping frowned. “That mouse could have used Thunder Roar before to find out where the basilisk really is. But it turns out not.”

This newly hatched Thunder Basilisk clearly did not have complete skills yet. But it still used the opportunity and left some injuries on the Lightning Rat using a simple tail whip.

“Thunder Flash, Thunder Slash, Thunder Shadow Image, Thunder Outerwear, All-round Thunder Prison..

In the video, the Lightning Rat slowly loses. It had plenty of opportunities to release more useful moves like Thunder Rush to dodge certain attacks, but chose not to do so for some reason.

Something's not right.

A moment later, the basilisk slammed the rat out of the stage with another tail sweep, announcing the end of the fight.

It's missing? Like those?

Most likely Su Yanying only knew those five skills and would continue to have her rat use them. As his loyal partner, the Lightning Rat could not do otherwise.

Speaking of a bad teammate. The poor little guy could have performed better if he just stood there without making a sound.

However, viewers do not have the same concerns as they continue to talk about how awesome it looks. In fact, four out of the five skills shown by the mice were high-level skills, whereas the remaining were secret arts that were only available to a select few thunder-type pets and Beast Kings.

Still, Su Ping could not accept the result.

Where is the Call of the Corpse of His Life? Soul eaters? And Life Depletes? What about the Death Lie? That skill alone was enough to turn things around!

He doesn't really care about the trophy because he's not the one who participates. Merely, seeing such a match felt like a waste of a god's gift. He gave Su Yanying a god-level pet, while he made a huge disappointment out of her.

Soon, Su Yanying came to visit.

“Hei, Sir!” Su Yanying walked over to the counter with an excited expression. “Now I can thank you personally. Anyway, you helped me get to the final. ”

Su Ping's lips twitched. He decided not to complain about the game because this would not change anything.

"* Sigh*This, let's finish the video."

“Don't be offended but, do you really need a video to make your store known? I think you just want to not stand out in this little place even though you have what it takes to make big money.”

Su Ping grimaced. Low profile my ass! I need some crazy money!

“Oh, right, are you free today, Mr Su? Since the official match has ended, our school will hold an exhibition match tomorrow. There will be a huge crowd and fireworks show! I'd like to thank you better, so... Will you cooperate with me for a match?”

“Exhibition matches? I'm not from your academy.”

"It's okay! An exhibition match is about being beautiful. We will be open to visitors on this occasion. My friends and their families will also go there to have fun!”
