I Tame Beasts by Feeding

Chapter 251: Chapter 233: Hatred 2

Although their Beast Taming Realms were the same, their personal cultivation Realms were not. Yu Changsheng was already at the Foundation Establishment Fourth Layer, while Li Tao was only at the Foundation Establishment Second Layer. The support they could provide their Spirit Beasts was naturally worlds apart.

Not to mention, Yu Changsheng had personally nurtured his Spirit Beasts many times. Their potential and combat strength were far beyond what other Spirit Beasts of the same Realm could compare to. Thus, the outcome of this battle was sealed from the very beginning.

"Poisonous Tail Divine Hook!"

The Red Refining Snake leaped viciously into the air. Its tail instantly erupted with astonishing power, its serpentine body twisting mid-air as it lashed out at the Two-headed Red Flame Lion on the ground.

A sharp glint of black light flashed. The snake’s tail instantly curved upward, forming a hook that shimmered with a metallic luster as it sliced through the air.

"ROAR!!"

The Two-headed Red Flame Lion roared. Its two massive heads shook in unison as they opened their cavernous mouths wide, baring their fangs. Two thick pillars of fire shot out, aimed at the descending Red Refining Snake.

The air instantly grew scorching. The intense heat caused the very space to distort as heaven-reaching pillars of fire erupted from the ground. Facing all this, the Red-Training Snake didn’t dodge or evade; it simply ignored the attack.

"BOOM!"

A sea of fire flowed, and the Red Refining Snake’s body churned within it. A layer of aquamarine barrier covered its form, and ripples spread across it upon contact with the flames.

"Water Spirit Illusion Armor!"

The Two-headed Red Flame Lion roared, but its attack couldn’t harm the Red Refining Snake in the slightest. The snake shot the lion a contemptuous glance, its pale red eyes devoid of any emotion.

In the next instant, the pillars of fire collapsed. The Red Refining Snake’s body shot out, its poisonous hook-tail whipping unopposed toward the Two-headed Red Flame Lion’s neck.

"ROAR!!"

In a flash, the Two-headed Red Flame Lion could only manage to raise its thick forelimbs to protect its vitals. The tail hook slammed into its limbs in the very same moment. The lion roared in pain as its body was sent flying to the edge of the stage, where it fell heavily.

Its forelimbs were a mangled mess of torn flesh and blood. A hint of black, sinister poison was visibly spreading across them, and the flames that had once covered its body began to flicker and die out.

"Two-headed Red Flame Lion!"

Li Tao’s eyes blazed with fury as he let out an anguished cry. He rushed forward to his nearly unconscious Spirit Beast. With bloodshot eyes, he fed it an Antitoxic Pill and a Recovery Elixir before waving his hand to recall it to his Inner Realm.

Although it hadn’t fainted on the spot from the Red Refining Snake’s poison, it would be out of combat for some time, even after taking the Antitoxic Pill.

The situation on the field changed in the blink of an eye. After dealing with the Two-headed Red Flame Lion, the Red Refining Snake didn’t stay idle. It quickly slithered over and joined the Colorful Star Deer’s battle.

Compared to the Two-headed Red Flame Lion, the Seven-Colored Cloud Deer was undoubtedly stronger and more difficult to deal with. As a result, the Colorful Star Deer, which wasn’t skilled in direct assaults, had been unable to secure a victory in the short time they’d been fighting, and the two were evenly matched.

But once the Red Refining Snake joined the fray, the situation shifted. The pressure on the Seven-Colored Cloud Deer increased dramatically, and it could only barely resist.

"Seven-Colored Cloud Deer! Seven-Colored Flowing Clouds!"

Li Tao gritted his teeth, his lips pursed as he watched the unfavorable situation unfold. The indignation and unwillingness to accept defeat were written all over his face.

WHOOSH...

A gentle breeze swept through. The Seven-Colored Cloud Deer shuddered, and the seven-colored markings on its body began to glow. At the same time, wisps of Spiritual Qi transformed into a mist that spread and flowed across the stage.

Within the mist, the Seven-Colored Cloud Deer flickered in and out of sight, its form suddenly becoming blurry. The flowing clouds around it seemed to possess a special power, constantly reflecting the light radiating from the deer. A dreamlike, seven-colored hue soon enveloped the mist, creating a beautiful yet disorienting sight.

The Red Refining Snake paused for a moment, observing the seven-colored mist. Its body writhed, causing the mist to churn, and it whipped its tail through the air with such force that the massive airflow made the very space hum.

’Illusion Spirit Skill?’

Yu Changsheng narrowed his eyes, watching the churning, seven-colored mist. A flash of light passed through them, revealing a hint of interest.

’A rather unique method of attack. Interesting. It’s a pity for you, though.’ Yu Changsheng smiled faintly. Under the watch of his powerful Divine Sense, such a minor trick naturally couldn’t affect him. Within the mist, every single move the Seven-Colored Cloud Deer made was laid bare before his eyes.

"Red Refining Snake, attack about ten meters to your right!"

Yu Changsheng’s lips moved slightly as he sent the Divine Thought into the Red-Training Snake’s mind.

"Colorful Star Deer, fifteen meters to your left. Use a Divine Soul Attack!"

The Colorful Star Deer gave a sharp cry of acknowledgment.

The Colorful Star Deer nodded. Its small body spun lightly, and with a leap from its hind legs, it slammed its forelegs onto the stage!

"Soul Stepping!"

An invisible ripple swiftly parted the mist and rushed straight for the Seven-Colored Cloud Deer.

"What?" Li Tao was stunned, a trace of panic appearing on his face.

The attack, which targeted the Divine Soul directly, gave the Seven-Colored Cloud Deer no chance to dodge. As the ripple swept over it, the deer’s body visibly stiffened, and the surrounding seven-colored mist began to destabilize and dissipate.

At the same time, prompted by Yu Changsheng, the Red Refining Snake didn’t hesitate. Its tongue flickered from its mouth, and a layer of Flame blazed to life on its body, parting the seven-colored mist as it moved like a dragon, swiftly charging toward the location to its right!

"BOOM!"

The Seven-Colored Cloud Deer, which hadn’t yet recovered, had no way to resist this blow. It let out a pained cry as its body was sent tumbling into the air, bleeding incessantly.

The seven-colored markings on its body quickly dimmed.

The Red Refining Snake roared. It slammed its tail onto the stage, and the violent shockwave thinned out the remaining seven-colored mist. Using the immense recoil, its body shot upwards like an arrow, viciously striking the still-tumbling Seven-Colored Cloud Deer!

"WUUU!!"

The Seven-Colored Cloud Deer cried out weakly. Already unable to reorient itself, it struggled to form a faint protective shield from the surrounding mist, but the barrier shattered instantly. The blow struck its body hard, causing it to double over like a shrimp as it was sent plummeting with tremendous force off the stage.

"You!!!"

Li Tao was frantic, glaring daggers at Yu Changsheng. Seeing his completely unconscious Seven-Colored Cloud Deer, he coughed up a mouthful of blood. With a wave of his hand, he recalled it into his Inner Realm.

Yu Changsheng’s expression was calm. After he waved his hand, the Red Refining Snake and the Colorful Star Deer came closer, nuzzling him affectionately.

Both of their auras were still at their peak. It was clear this battle hadn’t consumed much of their energy; they hadn’t even fought with their full strength.

Yu Changsheng smiled faintly, unbothered by Li Tao’s furious glare. He said gently, "You let me win."

"Hmph!"

Li Tao shot Yu Changsheng a glare, took a deep breath, and jumped off the stage without looking back.

He felt an overwhelming sense of frustration from this battle. The techniques of his two Spirit Beasts weren’t weak, yet they had been almost completely unable to harm Yu Changsheng’s beasts.

His Two-headed Red Flame Lion was a master of Flame, but against the Red Refining Snake, which was also a master of Flame, it was like punching cotton—utterly useless. The opponent didn’t even have to defend; its innate Flame immunity alone crippled half of his Two-headed Red Flame Lion’s combat strength.

And as for his Seven-Colored Cloud Deer, its most signature and rare technique—the Illusion Spirit Skill, Seven-Colored Flowing Clouds—was completely countered by the Colorful Star Deer’s Soul Stepping. It was utterly useless. This was the source of Li Tao’s deep frustration and grievance.

Watching Li Tao’s departing figure, Yu Changsheng slowly shook his head and smiled. He had barely needed to do anything in that battle; it had been an easy victory.

The sense of pressure from this opponent was completely different from the others he had faced before. He hadn’t needed to be on edge, nor did he, the Beast Master, have to personally enter the fray.
