But the contracted beast summoned by the beast tamer opposite her was only level 32?
After a moment of hesitation, she formed a new guess, thinking that the opponent must have deliberately concealed their strength and was testing the waters with a low-level contracted beast. With this in mind, she dared not be the slightest bit careless in this battle.
Compared to this woman wearing a green ghost mask, Lu Fei's mood had plummeted to the bottom. His face was a mottled blue and purple, as if it were about to turn into ink.
Since the other party could see his combat power, he could naturally see the opponent's strength and cultivation.
The moment the Beast Tamer's Compendium opened, the first thing that caught his eye was the opponent's level, a number that made Lu Fei gape in astonishment.
–––––––––––––––
Contracted Beast – [Armored Shield Dog]
Level – [lv75]
Attributes – [Strength Attribute, Metal Attribute]
Combat Power – [1210]
Rarity – [A-rank]
Skills – [???]
–––––––––––––––
“75!”
That’s right, the opponent’s contracted beast, this androgynous opponent, had reached level 75!
This was completely unequal. The level difference was more than double. What was the point of playing this game?
Lu Fei felt his scalp tingle and shouted anxiously, "Referee! How is this supposed to be fought! The difference in level and combat power is so huge!"
The robot on the big screen seemed to be prepared and immediately replied, "Opponents in the Dark Ranking Tournament are matched based on their points, not the beast tamer's level."
Lu Fei stood there stunned. Although he understood what was going on, it meant that both of them had zero points, so they were matched together. But this heaven-and-earth difference in strength made it impossible to fight!
“I surrender!”
Lu Fei cut his losses in time.
The robot's tone remained unchanged, “In Dark Ranking battles, surrender is not allowed.”
Lu Fei's heart leaped into his throat. Once you enter here, you can't leave without completing the match. Once the fight starts, you can't sneak out without finishing it. This was a completely overbearing agreement.
Lu Fei tried to reason with them, but the words caught in his throat and he swallowed them back. This was the Dark Ranking, an illegal place. Who would listen to your lectures here?
Lu Fei's opponent, the woman named Qing Gui, listened to Lu Fei's conversation with the robot, and her brows furrowed in surprise. So, was the opponent’s strength really just that of an intermediate beast tamer?
She used the level of "Iron Head Baby" to gauge Lu Fei as an intermediate beast tamer, which was a relatively accurate judgment. But if she knew that Lu Fei was only a beginner beast tamer, she didn't know what she would think.
After a fierce internal struggle, Lu Fei could only compromise.
After all, this was a virtual space, and once he left, everything would be as if it never happened.
After a moment of preparation, under the robot's command, the battle between the two officially began!
From the other side, the cold voice of the woman with the green ghost mask came, "You make the first move. I'm afraid if I make a move, this battle will end immediately."
Her tone was full of confidence, but this confidence was not blind. Lu Fei also agreed. The level difference was there, and the combat power was even more worlds apart.
Lu Fei sighed. He had also intended to finish quickly, but since it was a battle where their strengths were not equal, there was no need to fight to the death. A little effort would suffice.
"Iron Head Baby, use [Blade], let's probe!"
As soon as it heard the combat command, Iron Head Baby's eyes immediately changed. It did not treat this as a casual fight. As long as it was a fight, it would give its all!
"Hey..."
Lu Fei was about to say something, but Iron Head Baby had already charged out. He wanted to remind Iron Head Baby that the opponent's strength difference was too great. Let's not clash head-on!
Iron Head Baby swung its broken sword down.
One sword strike landed on the armor of the [Armored Shield Dog]. The [Armored Shield Dog]'s body didn't even move. It glanced sideways and looked at Iron Head Baby with disdain.
Iron Head Baby was shocked. Although this blow didn't use its full strength, it was at least seventy to eighty percent, right? But?
It was a little confused. Was this tall-looking guy so powerful?
Iron Head Baby retreated several steps and organized another attack.
Another sword strike was swung back.
The [Armored Shield Dog] still stood in place, motionless. However, when Iron Head Baby's broken sword touched the shield, it flew back like a ball.
Iron Head Baby refused to give up and launched several attacks in succession.
It attacked unilaterally for several rounds, but the [Armored Shield Dog] opposite it only defended.
A moment later.
The woman with the green ghost mask shook her head, "Hehe, I didn't expect the first match to be against such a weak opponent."
"Never mind, let's end the battle. There's still enough time for another match."
As Iron Head Baby's broken sword was about to fall again, the woman with the green ghost mask suddenly shouted, "[Armored Shield Dog], use [Shield Bash]!"
"Let's end this boring battle."
Hearing the master's combat command, the [Armored Shield Dog] raised its shield and roared.
The shield was about to smash towards Iron Head Baby.
Lu Fei made a decisive move.
"Iron Head Baby, use [Nine Solitary Swords]!"
He had originally thought it would be better to lose naturally, but this stubborn Iron Head Baby did not think so at all. It was already immersed in the battle. If he let Iron Head Baby lose casually now, this child was strong, so it would be a great impact on its state of mind.
Seeing the shield covering it like the sky, but just as [Nine Solitary Swords] was activated, Iron Head Baby's figure moved like a ghost. Its broken sword weaved like a dragon, dodging the attack that was within reach!
However, after using [Nine Solitary Swords] this time, Iron Head Baby was panting heavily, as if all its physical strength had been drained. It gasped for air.
The woman with the green ghost mask frowned and doubted her eyes again.
"Dodged?"
She looked at her contracted beast, "It must be that the [Armored Shield Dog] was holding back."
She shouted again, "[Armored Shield Dog], don't hold back. Even if you hit harder, the opponent won't die."
The [Armored Shield Dog] understood its master's words, its expression tensed, and it became somewhat solemn.
"[Armored Shield Dog], use [Heavy Strike Karate], end this battle!"
The next moment, as Iron Head Baby swung its sword, the [Armored Shield Dog] opened its arms. If it got close, it would be captured.
"At this speed, it's bound to be caught."
"Iron Head Baby, activate Thunder Attribute!"
Iron Head Baby, mid-air, its eyes narrowed, instantly turned golden yellow, with faint arcs of lightning flashing all over its body!
The woman with the green ghost mask, however, was not very surprised. She just muttered to herself, "I didn't expect it to have a Thunder Attribute protective stone. Quite a substantial backing."
She attributed Iron Head Baby's Thunder Attribute to an item. But then again, who would have thought that a Sword Guard would possess the Thunder Attribute?
The corners of the woman with the green ghost mask's mouth curved.
"But even if you have the Thunder Attribute, so what!"
