You were given the ability to tame beasts, not to become a god-level breeder.

"Your Moon Fox Moon Slash is highly proficient and indeed very powerful."

"But my Mountain Warrior has a naturally awakened attribute, and it's an Earth attribute."

"The quality is also top-grade gold."

"If this is all you have to offer, then give up the futile struggle."

"Failure is not shameful; losing the will to challenge the strong is the real failure."

Seeing that the Mountain Warrior had actually withstood the Moon Wheel Slash, Yu Wenzhou remained calm and composed, one hand behind his back, and spoke eloquently.

"Are we going to lose?"

"No! Moon Fox and Rinne Cat are so cute, don't stop here!"

A small group of spectators cheered for Zhou Lingding.

"What are you babbling about?"

"A spiritual blade, a dance of moonlight!"

Zhou Lingding remained calm and composed, issuing her orders methodically.

She had anticipated this; the Moon Wheel Slash could not eliminate the Mountain Warrior.

Quality represents the maximum level of the beast, and also includes basic attributes.

In layman's terms, it can be understood as life, strength, attack, speed, and spiritual energy quality.

That's why it's generally accepted that, at the same level, the side with the higher-quality beast has a higher win rate.

But this is not absolute!

The Beastmaster's command, the level of training of the Beast, and additional factors such as items are the key factors that enable low-quality Beasts to defeat high-quality Beasts.

Coincidentally, her little Yue and little Mi have many skills and are highly proficient in them!

"Meow!"

The little cat, as white as a steamed bun, had its eyes slightly narrowed.

An invisible, sharp blade struck the Flame Lion.

boom!

The Flame Lion, which had just condensed a fireball, was struck dumb as if by lightning.

His body shuddered, and the fireball landed directly on the ground and exploded.

The orange flames completely engulfed the Flame Lion.

When the flames subsided, all that remained was the Flame Lion, limp and charred, lying inside the white protective shield.

"Is this a mental skill called Mental Blade?"

"Damn it, this move isn't one of Rinne's racial skills!"

Yu Wenzhou frowned, and his calm demeanor could no longer be maintained.

The Moon Fox twisted its body, its strange posture revealing a mysterious and ancient aura.

The Moon Fox twitched, and gradually a faint, cool moonlight began to emanate from its body.

The aura of the Moon Fox is surging rapidly!

"Little Earth, Earth Spikes!"

Yu Wenzhou realized he couldn't let the Moon Fox continue jumping and tried to interrupt it.

Rumble!

The mountain warrior stomped his foot suddenly.

The arena floor trembled violently as sharp, solid rock spikes emerged from its surface.

With a light leap, the Moon Fox dodged the earth spikes, while a crescent moon condensed in the air above it.

The speed of condensation far exceeded that before, and the size of the condensed Moon Wheel Slash also increased.

Yu Wenzhou intended to have the mountain warriors stop him, but by the time they arrived...

The Moon Wheel Slash is complete!

The one-meter-long Moon Wheel Slash, carrying a terrifying aura, cleaved into the chest of the mountain warrior.

boom!

The barrier sphere activated immediately, enveloping the 2.5 and 2.5 Mountain Warriors.

That's right.

After being amplified by the Dance of Moonlight, the Moon Fox unleashed a minor-level Moon Wheel Slash, which directly split the Mountain Warrior in two!

Mountain warriors are not flesh-and-blood beast tamers, but elemental beings.

It has an elemental core similar to a beast's core inside its body. As long as the elemental core is not damaged, it will not die.

However, being split into two and a half pieces, it would take a considerable amount of time for an eighth-level Black Iron rank Mountain Warrior to heal.

Unable to move during this period, and with the Mountain Warrior being Yu Wenzhou's only remaining beast, the Barrier Sphere was activated, declaring the Mountain Warrior eliminated.

"We lost..."

Yu Wenzhou stood there, stunned, unable to come to his senses for a long time.

Are you kidding me!

He has two gold-tier beasts, one of which, the Mountain Warrior, is of the earth attribute.

They actually lost to two bronze-tier beasts!

"Failure is not shameful; losing the will to challenge the strong is the real failure."

Having secured victory and entered the top ten, Zhou Lingding first used her slender arms to pick up Xiaoyue, who was the size of an adult dog, and then stuffed Xiaomi into her pocket. After praising the two beasts, she saw Yu Wenzhou, who was in a daze, smiled and returned his words verbatim to him.

"I am inferior in skill, so I concede defeat."

"Wait, one day in the future, I will come back to challenge you."

Yu Wenzhou snapped out of his daze, took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice.

He is not a sore loser.

However, there is a significant difference in the quality of the beasts on both sides.

Despite having a quality advantage, they still lost to Zhou Lingding.

That was the reason he was distracted, not because he was trying to find a reason to refute it.

The moment the Mountain Fighter was eliminated, the entire audience fell silent.

As soon as Zhou Junfeng announced the results, the audience erupted in continuous gasps.

"Awesome!"

"Is this really something that Moon Fox and Bell Cat could do?"

"The Flame Lion and the Mountain Warrior, both incredibly rare and powerful, actually lost to two beasts evolved from ornamental pets!"

"Unbelievable! Moon Fox and Bell Cat are too strong!"

"I'm going to buy a Rinne Cat Contract right now..."

"Calm down. Moon Fox and Bell Cat are indeed strong, but their ability to defeat Flame Lion and Mountain Warrior is absolutely inseparable from Zhou Lingding's meticulous training. If you didn't have Zhou Lingding's resources to train them, your Moon Fox and Bell Cat would most likely not be able to defeat Flame Lion and Mountain Warrior!"

"..."

Amidst the lively discussion, the second group of students stepped onto the stage.

"How can Moon Fox and Bell Cat be so strong?!"

"How was that little dwarf raised?"

Yu Wenzhou walked back to Jiang Fan and the other man, looking worried and sighing.

Why aren't you two saying anything?

"Fanzi, why are you winking at me? It's just a month at the Xinghan Hotel, I'll definitely treat you, I won't go back on my word."

Yu Wenzhou looked at Jiang Fan, puzzled.

Jiang Fan covered his face.

"Yu Wenzhou, do you really enjoy giving people nicknames?"

"I think you should be called Yu the Second-Rate Idiot from now on!"

Jiang Fuliu was already in a bad mood, and when she heard Yu Wenzhou's slander, she became angry.

"Slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue, Zhou Lingding, Zhou Lingding."

Yu Wenzhou looked embarrassed and scratched the back of his head with a sheepish grin.

"snort."

Jiang Fuliu snorted coldly, got up and left.

"Aren't you a good brother? You didn't even remind me."

Yu Wenzhou put his arm around someone.

"I reminded you, can you blame me for not realizing it?"

Jiang Fan remained silent.

Although Yu Wenzhou lost, none of the three left.

In the final round of the Qicheng Cup, Zhou Lingding overcame all obstacles and won first place.

As Zhou Lingding won first place in the Qicheng Cup, the students uploaded the video to the music platform.

Although it didn't make it onto the trending topics list, it generated some buzz in Suzhou and even across thirteen provinces. In just one day, it directly added 10,000 Beast Taming Points to Jiang Fan's total, bringing his total to 130,000.

Jiang Fan never expected that watching a game would bring such an unexpected reward.

After reading all afternoon, Jiang Fan took a moment to glance at the comments section of Zhou Lingding's Qicheng Cup battle video.

Many discerning people analyzed that Zhou Lingding's Moon Fox and Bell Cat were strong because of the resources she invested in training them. Without such a large investment, she would have lost the match against Yu Wenzhou, let alone compete for first place.

"The Bell Cat has great potential. From the data I've collected, although the Bell Cat has few innate racial skills, it can learn almost all mental-type skills!"

"As everyone knows, even if the attributes are the same, you can't just learn any skill you want when you want to tame a beast."

"The Bell Cat is terrifyingly strong; aside from its low level cap, it has no weaknesses! As for the Moon Fox, let's not even go there. Its Moon Slash, amplified by Moonlight Dance, can cleave through earth-attribute mountain warriors; it can be called the strongest spear of its level!"

"Jiang Fan, who devised these two tamed beasts, is truly a genius!"

"Agreed. Jiang Fan only needs to research powerful beast taming techniques, while we contestants have to consider many more things!"

"We strongly urge organizers of all low-end, small-scale competitions to ban Suzune Cat directly, and ideally, ban Moon Fox as well!"

"Hehe, I have a competition tomorrow. I hope the organizers will ban Rinne Cat. Otherwise, if there's a Rinne Cat that has learned Illusionary Rinne, I'll be completely helpless!"

"I wonder what Jiang Fan is doing now, and which beast he'll research next. Hopefully, it'll be another low-cost yet powerful beast like the Moon Fox or the Bell Cat!"

"..."

Jiang Fan looked at the comments section, his feelings quite complicated.
