The commentator's eyes lit up as he saw the scene, his tone slightly excited:
"The Sky Void Bird seized the opportunity to break free from the psychic hold and used Brave Bird Attack, closing in on its opponent with its speed, then instantly switched to Air Vacuum, causing its opponent to suffocate! I didn't expect Frida to turn the tables in just a moment!"
"I didn't expect it either." Wang Xuezhi sighed.
"I can't believe Brave Bird Attack could be halted so abruptly."
"No one expected that." The commentator said with admiration.
"Stopping an attack mid-charge isn't easy. It requires incredible control over one's body, otherwise, a mistake could lead to self-injury."
"And the switch from Brave Bird Attack to Air Vacuum was brilliant." Wang Xuezhi added.
"That nameless pet beast has psychic powers and can teleport. If the Sky Void Bird continued with Brave Bird Attack, it would've likely dodged. But with Air Deprivation, it could experience suffocation before having the chance to teleport."
"For a pet beast that has never experienced suffocation, the sudden lack of air is extremely painful."
"Now, the nameless pet beast can't breathe. Even if the Sky Void Bird does nothing and just stands nearby, Frida would still win this match."
Although Frida's sudden comeback was impressive, not everyone present was her fan. Some spectators who had bet on Qiao Sang's victory were displeased by the commentary.
"Is the commentator biased toward Frida? Clearly, Qiao Sang controlled the pace from the start. She only just turned it around, and he's already singing praises. If I were using a General-level pet beast and got pushed around by a High-level one, I'd be too embarrassed to boast."
"Calm down, man. Frida's move was flawless. Besides, who would've expected a High-level pet beast's psychic power to completely restrain a General-level one? Frida simply seized the chance to counterattack, and it was executed perfectly. I bet we'll know the result soon."
"Ahhh! Qiao Sang, don't lose! I bet all my savings on you!"
"What were you thinking? Betting on Qiao Sang against Frida?"
"I got carried away! Didn't even check the opponent's info!"
"I checked, the odds were 1:3. I just hope Qiao Sang can win one round."
"You're bold. Betting on Qiao Sang to win even one round against Frida?"
"What's wrong with that? Frida still has two other High-level pet beasts. What if she summons one of them in the second or third round?"
Inside the private room.
Yuna looked at the scene on the arena and sighed, "Qiao Sang is doing much better than I expected. I thought the Blazing Star Canine would lose as soon as the Sky Void Bird appeared, but it's only now affected by Air Vacuum."
Tang Yi watched in silence.
Suddenly, Yuna asked, "I explained earlier that Frida's General-level pet beast has traits that counter fire types. Why did you still ask me to bet on Qiao Sang winning?"
What a joke. They were all from Blue Star, and Qiao Sang was the national champion of Dragon Nation's high school division. Of course, he had to show his support. Besides, it was just 1,000 alliance Coins, no big deal, especially since he'd earned plenty earlier... Tang Yi replied seriously,
"You didn't watch Qiao Sang's National Campus Beast Mastering Championship. She won't lose so easily."
Yuna looked at the arena, puzzled.
She couldn't understand why Tang Yi was still so confident in Qiao Sang despite the current situation.
Yabao's face twisted in pain, his mouth wide open, struggling to breathe.
Stay calm. Stay calm. The match isn't over yet... Qiao Sang took a deep breath, her mind racing.
The Sky Void Bird switched from Brave Bird Attack to Vacuum, which meant it couldn't use other moves while maintaining Air Vacuum. Otherwise, it wouldn't have stopped Brave Bird Attack and missed the chance to follow up.
It wants to make Yabao faint from suffocation...
Normally, Yabao could hold his breath for a minute, but sudden suffocation is different from voluntarily holding one's breath...
Involuntary suffocation amplifies pain, shortening the time one can hold out...
Yabao has to calm down and then interrupt the Sky Void Bird's Air Vacuum...
Thinking this through, Qiao Sang shouted, "Yabao! Stay calm!"
Stay calm? Frida heard this and smirked, then ordered, "Claw Strike."
Although Claw Strike was just a low-level flying-type move, the Sky Void Bird had mastered it to the level of high profiency. Coupled with its strength, it could even harm General-level pet beasts.
Qiao Sang's words reached Yabao's ears.
The Sky Void Bird raised its claws, drawing elegant arcs in the air that gleamed like cold light as they slashed toward Yabao.
Qiao Sang instantly realized:
The Sky Void Bird can't use energy-consuming moves while maintaining Air Vacuum! That's why it stopped Brave Bird Attack. Using physical attacks is still possible!
No time... Qiao Sang's heart sank. It was too late to issue a command.
Normally, this attack wouldn't be a threat, but now Yabao was suffocating. He couldn't even focus on his opponent, let alone react.
Yabao... Qiao Sang watched worriedly.
Stay... calm... Yabao remembered his master’s words.
The sharp claws tore into Yabao, but he didn't fall. His eyes filled with resolve as he lunged at his opponent, biting down on the Sky Void Bird's neck.
The Sky Void Bird screeched in pain, its glowing aura dimming.
"Don't stop!" Frida shouted urgently.
"Ten more seconds, and it'll pass out!"
The Sky Void Bird struggled, but its wings were pinned down.
White light collided with green light, creating a massive explosion. A fierce shockwave swept across the arena.
Everyone held their breath.
When the dust settled, both beasts lay motionless on the ground.
The large virtual screen showed the result:
