Beast Taming: My first spirit beast was a frog junior?

The incessant buzzing of wings echoed through the forest.

A locust, as big as two fists, slowly flew up from the haystack, following many other locusts.

"That's the king of the grasshoppers?" Wang Qiang exclaimed in surprise.

"Judging from its size, its energy level should be around the initial level 10, which is nothing to worry about." Takagi analyzed the combat strength of this Eroding Locust immediately.

The leader of the locusts opened its mouth, and a strange, gurgling sound came from it.

In an instant, the locusts flying in mid-air shot towards Xu Xian and his companions like sharp arrows.

"Wang Qiang!" Takagi shouted.

Wang Qiang said, "I know!"

Xu Xian looked at him and saw that Gao Mu and Liu Mei were suddenly emitting a faint light.

At the same time, Wang Qiang also shone brightly.

The white light energy emanating from the three individuals resembled miniature shockwaves, reaching a consensus amidst extremely rapid vibrations.

This is the intermediate-level beast tamer's secret technique: Resonance!

Under resonance, other Beast Tamers can channel their energy into one of the resonating individuals.

The Beastmaster then infuses energy into one of the spirit beasts they have contracted, greatly increasing its strength.

In the state of resonance, the more people there are, the stronger the amplification.

The white light energy emanating from Gao Mu and Liu Mei's bodies drifted into Wang Qiang's body like smoke, and was then transformed into a beam of white light by Wang Qiang's will and shot into the Rock Wolf's body.

"Awooo!!" The rock wolf howled to the sky.

Centered on it, a beam of earthy yellow light emanated, instantly enveloping Xu Xian and his companions, as well as the four beasts led by the rock wolf.

In just a moment, Xu Xian's skin turned a yellowish-brown, petrified color.

This is the Rock Wolf's intermediate skill, "Petrifying Skin"!

Xu Xian was surprised.

To extend the Petrifying Skin ability to cover others, in addition to having sufficient energy, one must also have a high level of skill mastery.

In other words, Wang Qiang's rock wolf level is only intermediate level four.

But Petrified Skin's skill proficiency is estimated to have reached the mastery stage, which is truly impressive.

Once the petrified skin was applied, Xu Xian and the others felt themselves turn into stone in an instant, their bodies becoming extremely stiff.

No matter how the locusts charged or even stretched out their disgusting teeth to bite, they could not break through their defenses. Even the clothes covered by their petrified skin could not be damaged in the slightest.

However, this cannot continue.

Xu Xian said, "Waa, use the surging bubbles!"

As soon as Wawa opened its mouth, a large water balloon-like bubble enveloped the four people and four beasts.

A large amount of water surged in the bubbles, but Xu Xian and his companions were able to breathe freely as if they had gills like fish.

However, the locusts that forced their way in were momentarily drowning and had difficulty breathing, causing bubbles to form in the water.

In addition to being able to breathe freely, tiny glimmers of energy emanated from the water in the bubbles, flowing into the three members of the group and the three fiery hounds.

"It can attack, defend, and recover energy and injuries. No wonder it's the move that so many water-attribute spirit beasts want to learn!" Takagi exclaimed.

Unfortunately, although this "Returning Bubble" is only an intermediate skill, its learning difficulty is comparable to that of an advanced skill.

If it weren't for the limited upper limit, it would definitely be an all-around advanced skill.

The surging bubbles consumed a lot of energy. After only a minute, Vawa was already showing signs of fatigue, and a third of her energy was consumed.

Although the locusts have low intelligence, they are not really stupid.

With the leader of the locusts present, the surviving locusts flew outside the water bubbles and no longer charged in to invite trouble.

However, they dared not attack first, but Takagi had no intention of letting them go.

The object of the resonance changed. It changed from Wang Qiang to Gao Mu.

The Fiery Hound charged out of the surging bubble, its four paws ablaze with flames that surged and roared with its heightened emotions.

This caused the Fire Hound to be completely engulfed in flames. As Wang Qiang and Liu Mei transferred their energy to Gao Mu, Gao Mu then channeled it into the Fire Hound.

The fiery hound bared its sharp teeth and roared upwards.

"Aww!!!"

A scalding hot breath emanated from its mouth like sound waves.

It transformed into waves of heat, or like a giant vortex of fire sweeping upwards.

"This is a beginner-level fire wave?" Xu Xian exclaimed in surprise.

The Firehound has two skills: the intermediate skill "Flame Breath" and the basic skill "Fire Wave".

Normal fire waves are just a surge of heat, like a red glow.

It is said that only those with extremely profound mastery can move like a surging tide.

Takagi, the fiery hound, opened its mouth and unleashed a massive vortex of flames, mercilessly burning and incinerating one locust after another.

A faint aroma of meat wafted through the air as the charred figure fell. Xu Xian glanced at Gao Mu, then at Wang Qiang and Liu Mei.

The energy levels of the contracted spirit beasts of these three people should not be unusual among sophomores, based on his understanding.

However, their mastery of their respective spirit beast skills is quite high.

Normally, a high-grade black iron spirit beast with normal talent would train hard.

It takes at least two or three years to hone a basic skill to mastery.

Perfection is a state that is rare and hard to achieve under normal circumstances.

Now, Takagi's Firehound clearly has a perfect grasp of the "Fire Wave".

The fiery red light transformed into scorching waves, swirling violent flames that roared and mercilessly devoured the locusts.

The leader of the locusts was, after all, a leader. Its intelligence had greatly increased after its energy level was high. After seeing its subordinates being killed one by one, it simply flapped its wings and turned to run away.

"Trying to run away?" Xu Xian sneered.

"Waaah!"

"Croak!!" Wawa instantly understood Xu Xian's meaning, and an invisible force struck the leader of the Corrosive Locusts like lightning.

In an instant, the flying locust found itself filled with inexplicable anger, as if a giant frog was constantly provoking it.

Enraged, the leader of the locust-eating group turned and glared fiercely at Wawa.

The three of them were surprised. Why did this guy run away and then come back?

Looking at Wawa, though it wasn't clear, it was obviously the frog junior's doing.

I was greatly shocked.

Its talent is already evident in its psychic abilities, but it also possesses other unknown capabilities.

The three looked at Wawa, only to see Wawa pointing her middle finger.

Takagi, Wang Qiang, and Liu Mei: "..."

This gesture of international goodwill became the final straw that broke the camel's back for the leader of the locust-eating scourge.

Its ferocious mouth opened wide, venom seeping from its fangs, and with a startled "squeak," it rushed straight towards Wawa.

"Don't kill it, knock it unconscious!" Xu Xian ordered.

Wawa immediately spread his right webbed foot, and an invisible, enormous force instantly pressed down on the locust.

It's an intermediate player fighting a beginner, not to mention the natural racial differences between the two.

The Grasshopper Locust is a type of spirit beast that is considered a roadside combatant among those of the same level.

Even at the peak of the initial stage, Wawa nearly crushed the Corrosive Locust with a single mental grasp.

Although it survived, its wings were spurting green liquid, and its body was decaying and twisted.

"Should we exterminate all the locust larvae here?" Xu Xian asked Gao Mu.

Takagi shook his head. "No need. I've already contacted the association beforehand. They'll handle these things."
