Beast Taming: I'm Really Just a Forest Ranger

The breeze brushed against his face,

Zeng Hui stared at the fallen Abyssal Giant Toad, rubbing his eyes in disbelief, "Did I see that right?"

The Abyssal Giant Toad was taken down in one blow by the Steel-headed Ground Rat?

Isn’t this the Abyssal Giant Toad known for its outstanding defensive capabilities?

Moreover, the Steel-headed Ground Rat used a skill that wasn’t even a particularly powerful Steel-type move, but rather the most basic entry-level skill mastered by most Steel-type Pet Beasts. How could it one-hit KO the Abyssal Giant Toad with such high physical resistance?

This is illogical!

Looking at the Steel-headed Ground Rat’s calm demeanor, Wu Peng’s eyes flashed as he thoughtfully nodded, "That Steel Blade’s proficiency must have reached perfection."

"Perfection level?" Zeng Hui cast a doubtful and confused glance.

"Yes." Wu Peng nodded, his voice continued, "Otherwise, it doesn’t explain how the Abyssal Giant Toad was one-hit KO’d."

"It wasn’t contracted by Advisor Chen, could its skill proficiency still be this high?" Zeng Hui was surprised.

Wu Peng didn’t answer immediately but instead stared intently at the Steel-headed Ground Rat, as a thought quickly emerged in his mind: "Perhaps, Advisor Chen is trying to teach us a lesson through the Steel-headed Ground Rat."

"Skills should focus on quality, not quantity. If you persistently practice one skill, over time, you will surely achieve something."

"Even the most basic entry-level moves can display astonishing power with day and night training."

Zeng Hui’s eyes lit up, "I understand, Advisor Chen also wants to tell us not to aim too high, but to be down-to-earth and first hone our basic skills to perfection."

"I’ll make the Fire Cloud Cat focus solely on practicing Flame Surge when I get back and won’t bother with other skills!"

At the same time,

The Far Traveling Frog approached the unconscious Abyssal Giant Toad, using [Clear Wave] to generate pale blue ripples that enveloped the latter, slowly healing its injuries.

After a while, the Abyssal Giant Toad slowly regained consciousness, opening its eyes: "Croak..."

Its first sight was the Steel-headed Ground Rat standing right in front, instantly recalling the previous one-hit KO scenario, filling it with anger and shame.

This is a great humiliation!

As the second strongest of the Frog Race, to be one-hit KO’d by an ordinary door-keeping Steel-headed Ground Rat, witnessed by many Frog Race juniors, it would surely be laughed at back home, and the King would be disappointed.

No way, I need to regain my honor!

Thoughts racing, the Abyssal Giant Toad, ignoring its injured body, stumbled to its feet, attempting to challenge the Steel-headed Ground Rat again.

But when it met those emotionless eyes, its heart seemed gripped by invisible hands, suffocating it.

This Steel-headed Ground Rat seems formidable, I can’t handle that Steel Blade.

The lingering pain in its abdomen, the sharpness of the Steel Blade hasn’t dissipated, prompting the Abyssal Giant Toad to pick another challenger.

Anyway, defeating any of those human’s Pet Beasts would regain my lost face.

Its pea-sized eyes turned, finally fixing on the Flame Cloud Falcon flying in the air: "Croak croak croak!"

Water Type against Fire Type, I have the advantage!

It’s you!

Seeing the Abyssal Giant Toad staring intently at the Flame Cloud Falcon, the two onlookers were dumbfounded.

"Is this Abyssal Giant Toad stunned?" Wu Peng couldn’t understand.

Zeng Hui hesitated, "It’s Water Type, the Flame Cloud Falcon is Fire Type, maybe indeed..."

Before he could finish, Wu Peng interrupted, "If attribute advantage decided everything, what would Xia Heng’s Furious Wave Crocodile be?"

Zeng Hui: "..."

All the little ones were also dumbfounded, with Run Run Duck casting a look of admiration.

Originally thought the Abyssal Giant Toad only bullied the weak like me, didn’t expect it to dare challenge the big sister, just like me, Duck, also quite brave and fearless.

Duck, I acknowledge you!

"Ka."

Iron Head saw the Abyssal Giant Toad attempting to challenge the big sister, it turned and left without hesitation, standing straight at the gate, quietly watching the group of frogs.

The more it’s like this, the more likely some petty rascals might sneak into the farm.

"Croak croak croak!"

The Abyssal Giant Toad, seeing no response from the Flame Cloud Falcon, again let out a loud cry, bouncing on the spot.

Do you dare to challenge me?

"Tweet..."

Spark looked down, gazing at the noisy Abyssal Giant Toad, suddenly spreading its wings, flames bursting forth.

"Croak!"

Seeing Spark’s reaction, the Abyssal Giant Toad was overjoyed, its mouth surging with water.

Let me extinguish your little flame with my surging water flow!

However, the next moment, the overwhelming flames reflected in its eyes, the Abyssal Giant Toad felt alarms ringing in its heart.

Something seems off.

Five seconds later,

"Croak."

The Abyssal Giant Toad lay on the ground, exhaling a plume of black smoke, its bluish-gray skin displaying large scorched marks. It blankly stared at the Flame Cloud Falcon flying above, suddenly tilting its head, ready to faint.

But Spark’s control over the flames has reached a free-will level, although the Abyssal Giant Toad appears severely injured, it’s actually still consciously awake for Chen Yuan’s questioning.

"Croak croak croak."

Long after, the Abyssal Giant Toad still hadn’t passed out, it suddenly saw the juniors gathered whispering, its heart sank.

Oh no, being one-hit KO’d twice in a row, I’ve lost face among the juniors.

"Croak!"

Knowing it couldn’t go on like this, the Abyssal Giant Toad gritted its heart and slammed its head hard against the ground, accompanied by a loud "bang", its head spinning, severe pain, then it fainted.

Watching the Abyssal Giant Toad’s actions, Chen Yuan’s mouth twitched, "Is that necessary?"

It’s just a one-hit KO, isn’t that quite normal?
