Chapter 659: Chapter 653: Tyrant Dragon Shaking the Sky

“Shadow-Piercing Flashes!”

With Rudolf Sherwood’s command, the Sharp Silver Mantid, now in a state of bond coordination, let out a light chirp, and the glow of the two large silver blades in front of it surged violently.

The sharp blades not only extended to six meters, but their edges also condensed the unstoppable gold-type Arcane Force and a faint light capable of shattering space, and its body vanished from its original position in a flash.

Boom, boom, boom!

Arcane Force roared, space wailed, and dazzling bright lights obscured everything in the world. Even David Jones could barely see the twisted afterimages of the Sharp Silver Mantid as it flickered and shifted in such adverse conditions.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

In less than a second, the silver blades shuttling through space launched a thousand deadly attacks.

The rushing waterfall cascaded down, striking the river surface and raising a great spray of water, masking the gruesome sight of Pet blood splattering everywhere.

As the brilliant light dispersed, under the shocked gazes of the numerous spectators, deep bone-deep cuts suddenly opened on the back of the Deep Water Ape, the chest of the Frost Wolf, and the belly of the Eight-sided Fire Toad. Even Rainbow’s surface erupted in continuous sparks as its Dragon Body kept retreating.

“Snowball!”

“Frosty!”

Margaret Yule and others hurriedly used the Star Ring to recall their Pets who had fainted from excessive blood loss, their eyes filled with concern as they looked towards Rainbow.

“Clang, clang…!”

Their Pets had only sustained several slashes, but Rainbow took hundreds, if not thousands, of continuous cuts from the mantid.

Even with Rainbow’s unparalleled defense, forming hundreds of Frost Rings for protection in a short time using its Manipulate Frost ability, it was still pierced layer by layer by the Sharp Silver Mantid’s blades that could cut through space, even reaching the Dragon Scales.

Seeing this, the commentator on the scene stood up and exclaimed, “Rosewood College’s team has lost another three contract Pets, leaving only David Jones on the field. Facing a one against seven situation, victory seems to be assured. Is Peony College going to lift the National Trainer Cooperative Competition trophy again this year?”

Upon hearing the commentator’s words, some local Rosewood fans fell silent at once.

Wasn’t this year supposed to be the most hopeful?

Why did the battle turn so one-sided?

Keep in mind that Peony College had only sent out their top student, Rudolf Sherwood, with the other six members still reassembling their mecha.

…

“What is David Jones doing?” Anders Roland frowned in displeasure.

In his view, if David Jones had used Genie Transformation from the start, not even Rudolf Sherwood alone could have stopped him, let alone let Peony College successfully complete their mecha combination.

Now that the situation was dragged down by Rudolf Sherwood, even if David Jones could defeat him, how could the expended Frost Wyvern face the fully restored Zodiac Mech?

That was a terrifying mecha capable of wiping out hordes of beasts in the Beast Tide and effortlessly crushing Class VI King Beasts.

Although on a one-on-one basis, Anders Roland felt that David Jones’s Frost Wyvern was even more fearsome.

“If I were David Jones, how would I break Peony College’s strategy?” On the other side, Bella Wanton watched the battle on the large screen seriously, with a glint of light flashing in her eyes as she pondered.

“Captain, which team do you think will win?”

Bella Wanton turned her head to look at the teammate who asked and smiled lightly, “I think it’s Rosewood. How could someone who could beat us lose to Peony!”

…

“Are you alright?” David Jones’s brows were lightly furrowed as he moved his hands together, as if warming up.

The reason he dared to enter the National Trainer Cooperative Competition with three teammates who were holding him back was not only his confidence in Rainbow, but also his self-confidence.

Having cultivated the Tigrex Dossier to the medium phase of the fourth level, he was no weaker than any Class VI Pet, perhaps even stronger.

“Ee,” (It’s okay.)

Rainbow’s eyes suddenly hardened as she looked at the many white marks appearing on the dragon scales, her gaze showing a touch of heartache.

At the same time, David Jones’s warm-up actions did not escape the eyes of the host and commentator.

“This…” the host Elsa Hoyle spoke with a hint of anticipation, “Is contestant David Jones planning to fight the Sharp Silver Mantid with his bare flesh and bones?”

When she had been in the backstage resting area with David Jones, she had felt an almost imperceptible sense of danger emanating from him.

Her instincts told her that if she didn’t summon her pet and it came down to a one-on-one fight between trainers, she, being an epic combatant herself, would very likely not be able to defeat David Jones.

This indicated that David Jones’s physical strength had reached a quite formidable level, even surpassing that of the average Class VI Overlord beasts.

“What, the trainer is warming up! Could it be that contestant David Jones wants to fight alongside his pet? This is undoubtedly a crazy idea!”

The commentator’s impassioned words not only astonished the live audience but also made viewers on the streaming platform incessantly post question marks, their eyes filled with surprise as they watched David Jones advancing further into the arena.

“Is he sure this isn’t a throw???”

“Bad news, it looks like Rosewood College’s team really is in dire straits; otherwise, they wouldn’t do something so foolish!”

…

“What’s going on?”

Rudolf Sherwood was dumbfounded as he watched David Jones proactively entering the fight.

All the opponents he had fought would choose to increase their distance upon discovering the Sharp Silver Mantid’s unpredictable and ghostly speed, using the pet’s defensive skills for protection while restraining the enemy, and sometimes even using themselves as bait for the Sharp Silver Mantid to ambush, so as to counterattack from a desperate situation.

But David Jones was different; he went straight into battle alongside his pet, facing him with the combat style standard to a King class trainer.

However, the problem was that King class combatants who fought this way generally had more than one Class VI pet.

The trainer would take on the defensive responsibilities together with the secondary Class VI pet, while letting the primary pet unleash its combat power freely.

David Jones had only one Class VI Flood Dragon, forcibly applying the combat methods of King class combatants would only make him lose faster!

After all, although the physique of a King class combatant was strong, it was still far inferior to a Class VI Overlord pet. Facing the Sharp Silver Mantid, capable of shuttling through space, the Frost Wyvern would inevitably be distracted by the presence of its trainer.

Just call for an attack on their inevitable rescue point, and the Sharp Silver Mantid would soon gain the upper hand in the battle.

Overjoyed by his realization, Rudolf Sherwood knew now was his best chance to overwhelm seven against one!

“What Zodiac Mech, nothing but trash fish and shrimp!”

Glancing at Martini Goldsmith, who was about to succeed, Rudolf Sherwood smiled confidently.

“Sorrowful Strangulation!”

Under the influence of Bond Coordination and space power, Sharp Silver Mantid instantly appeared above David Jones, but its attention was entirely on Rainbow.

“Qua?” (You’re not going to block?)

Feeling slighted by the lack of defense, the Sharp Silver Mantid did not hesitate as its silver blade plunged directly towards David Jones’s throat.

This perilous move caused the commentator and host to cry out, prompting some viewers who couldn’t see what was happening clearly to widen their eyes, but they still couldn’t catch a glimpse of the Sharp Silver Mantid’s figure.

“Shaking the Sky!”

David Jones clenched his fist, arching with unparalleled power, then under the bewildered gaze of the Sharp Silver Mantid, he was the first to strike, landing a heavy blow on its right side.

The next moment, a terrorizing shockwave swept across, even causing the cascade of the waterfall to momentarily stall and then seemingly reverse.
