Spinning, dazzling flames shot out as Yabao launched the first attack.
Fridaâs expression remained calm. She waited until the flames were just two meters from her pet before leisurely commanding:
"Vacuum."
The pet Frida had summoned was exactly the Sky Void Bird that Wang Xuezhi had previously mentioned.
It spread its wings, emitting a white glow. An invisible energy expanded outward.
In an instant, the flames in mid-air vanished.
Qiao Sang: !!!
What the heck! Air vacuum?!
The commentatorâs voice chimed in at the perfect moment:
"As expected! Against the Air Vacuum ability, all fire-based attacks are rendered useless!"
Wang Xuezhi added, âQiao Sang looks shocked. It seems sheâs not familiar with Fridaâs Sky Void Bird.â
Air Vacuum isnât a skill; itâs a special trait possessed by a rare few flying-type beasts. It can drain the air within a certain area, creating a vacuum.
In the absence of air, living beings would suffocate, and flames would extinguish.
No wonder the commentators were so sure Yabao would lose..
. As the realization dawned, a curse word flashed through Qiao Sangâs mind.
For a fire-type beast, encountering a flying-type beast with this ability was truly the worst matchup.
Qiao Sang strongly suspected that the Beast Battle Arena deliberately invited Frida to counter Yabao!
On the battlefield, after the flames were extinguished, the white glow surrounding the Sky Void Bird persisted as it maintained its wing-spread stance.
No way... Is it planning to drain all the air from the arena...
Qiao Sangâs eyes widened as she quickly shouted:
"Psychic!"
She needed to interrupt this!
Fire attacks being ineffective was one thing, but losing due to suffocation was another.
She couldnât afford to lose like this!
Unbeknownst to her, Qiao Sang had changed a lot from before.
Previously, faced with an opponent of a higher rank and a countering type, she would have calmly analyzed the situation and accepted the possibility of defeat.
But now, all she could think about was how to win.
âYap!â
Yabao's eyes glowed blue.
In the next moment, the Sky Void Bird was slammed to the ground by an invisible force.
Frida looked stunned.
Isnât that supposed to be a high-level beast?
How could its psychic power restrain a beast one rank above it?
The commentator was equally shocked and had just regained his composure when Qiao Sang gave the next command:
"Hellfire!"
âYap!â
Yabao stomped his front paw onto the ground. The arena cracked open as flames surged rapidly toward the Sky Void Bird.
If this creature could vacuum the air, close-range attacks were out of the question. Though Hellfire were fire-based, they erupted from underground.
Even if the Sky Void Bird vacuumed the air above ground, the debris from the scorched rocks would still hit it...
And if the Sky Void Bird tried to dodge by flying, Yabao would use his psychic power to slam it back to the ground...
Qiao Sangâs mind raced as she calculated the next steps for every possible scenario.
Yet, Frida remained calm, issuing her command:
"Dodge."
"Sky!"
The Sky Void Bird stood up and spread its wings.
Even without Qiao Sangâs command, Yabao's eyes gleamed blue.
But just then, the Sky Void Bird split into two, then four...
In the blink of an eye, twelve Sky Void Birds charged toward Yabao.
The commentator quickly explained: âI didnât expect Qiao Sangâs pet to have such powerful psychic abilities. Even after so many battles, it can still control a beast one rank higher. But it looks like itâs at its limit now, unable to distinguish the real body among so many clones.â
âIf the Sky Void Bird gets close...â
The commentatorâs voice cut off abruptly.
His eyes widened in disbelief.
All twelve Sky Void Birds were pinned to the ground by an unseen force!
Fiery flames burst from the earth, striking every one of them with precision.
The clones vanished one by one until only the real one remained!
Is this... really the psychic power of a high-level beast?
In the audience, faces were frozen in shock and astonishment.
During the month on the starship, Yabao had either been meditating or training his psychic powers.
He had mastered them to the late stage of the Ultimate level. Once his proficiency maxed out, and if he had enough energy, he could fully control beasts one rank above him...
Qiao Sangâs thoughts raced as she planned the next wave of attacks.
Yabao could indeed restrain a General-rank beast, but if the General-rank fought back with all its might, it could break free. Success earlier was mostly because the Sky Void Bird hadnât realized Yabao's true strength...
Using psychic power in combination with Hellfire might not work a second time...
However, since his proficiency was nearing the peak of the Ultimate level, the Sky Void Bird probably couldnât break free instantly...
Suddenly, an idea flashed in Qiao Sangâs mind, and her eyes lit up as she shouted:
"Spin!"
At her command, the Sky Void Bird was lifted high into the air and spun rapidly at a 360-degree angle.
You can do that?
The spectators watched the spinning Sky Void Bird in stunned amazement.
No wonder they brought me here...
Fridaâs eyes flashed with surprise before quickly regaining composure. She resolved to seize control of the battleâs pace.
She commanded:
"Vacuum, just like that."
"Sky... yue..." The Sky Void Bird, fighting the urge to vomit, began to glow white.
Yabao's eyes remained blue, increasing the spinning speed.
After several seconds, Qiao Sang noticed the white glow hadnât faded. A bad feeling crept into her mind:
Did the Sky Void Bird also train to resist dizziness?
She pondered briefly, deciding not to take that risk.
"Drop!" She commanded.
Right now, she needed to stop the vacuum effect.
An opportunity! Fridaâs eyes gleamed as she shouted, âNow!â
Changing the movement trajectory under psychic control is when the control is at its weakest!
The Sky Void Bird stopped spinning.
Before Yabao could slam it to the ground, the Sky Void Bird spread its wings and broke free from the psychic grip.
Its body glowed green before shooting forward at terrifying speed, tearing through the air toward Yabao.
In a blink, the Sky Void Bird appeared before Yabao.
Yabao's battle instincts kicked in, preparing to teleport away.
âYap!â
But just as he was about to teleport, his eyes widened in pain.
Frida knew she had it.
Everyone saw the Sky Void Birdâs green light turn white just one meter away from the nameless beast.
