The King of Beast Trainers

Chapter 41 36: The Bigger the Storm, the Higher the Pig Flies_1

Location: Infinite City Arena, an exclusive underground combat room, where Pig Farmers and Dog Trainers appeared after being teleported there.

The room was vast, an open-air space resembling a tennis court, with a large square of gray turf serving as the battleground, while the edge was surrounded by an ample green turf area where Beast Trainers could stand and command.

"Should the two of us fight?" Having arrived, Lu Ran asked the Pig Farmer across him, seeming somewhat eager. Just watching Mr. Husky fight was boring, and originally he had no interest in Beast PvP...

"Huh?" The Pig Farmer didn't quite understand at first.

"Beast Trainers are divided into two styles. The first consumes one's own strength to enhance the Pet Beast; the second leverages the strength of the Pet Beast to enhance oneself."

"The former is simply letting the Pet Beast fight, protecting oneself, while the latter means entering the fray oneself. Which style do you belong to?"

"However, you probably don't have any Beast Training Techniques yet, so you haven't made a choice. What are the assessment requirements of the Star Guild?"

"Wait, hold on! The assessment of the Star Guild seems to be just letting the Pet Beasts duel... I'd rather not get personally involved," the Pig Farmer stepped back, waving his hands in a dismissing gesture.

Lu Ran looked at him with disdain, "You seem to have good reflexes though."

The Pig Farmer resisted somewhat, "The seniors in the guild mentioned that in the first style, if the Pet Beast encounters an accident, the Beast Trainer will only suffer some backlash, but won't die. However, with the second style where the Beast Trainer dies, it's all over. I heard that the mortality rate of Beast Trainers of the second style is several times higher than the first..."

"Even though the Beast Trainers are stronger, their survival rate hasn't increased at all. The seniors warn to never choose the second style, saying only fools would choose it..."

"Hey, you're not planning to follow the second style in the future, entering battles alongside your Pet Beast, are you?!" The Pig Farmer's expression changed.

"Er, not really," Lu Ran scratched his cheek. It just so happened that the Beast Training Technique he revealed was of the second style; for now, he had no choice.

Beast Trainers of the second style are stronger, yet their mortality rate is even higher... Hmm, quite peculiar. They must be thinking they're really strong and end up courting death.

"That's a relief," the Pig Farmer sighed. "Although I greatly admire those ancient warriors who galloped across the battlefield on their chargers, it really is too dangerous."

"The main issue is we're both amateurs, lacking professional training. Rushing into battle recklessly makes it easy to get into accidents. I feel like the Cavalry from the grasslands might have a better handle on fighting alongside their Pet Beasts."

"No, there's another profession," said Lu Ran.

"What?"

"Hunter." Lu Ran chuckled and held up the Contract Card to summon Mr. Husky.

On the field, a circular Summoning Formation appeared, bursting with brilliant light.

"Awoo~~~"

The canine Pet Beast arrived.

"My ancestors were hunters, who often worked with Hunting Dogs to hunt down wild boars that were a menace to the crops."

The Pig Farmer: ???

He too pulled out a Contract Card to initiate the summoning of the wild boar.

"This pig of mine is not comparable to common pigs!" The Pig Farmer firmly declared as he wiped his sweaty nose with his arm and began to summon seriously.

Lu Ran had exerted considerable pressure on him, after all, Lu Ran had previously appeared on the Divine Pet List.

However, winning if possible was naturally the best outcome, and the Pig Farmer didn't want to see himself as inferior.

"Huff!!!" As the light erupted, a wild boar over two meters long with long tusks and earth-colored bristles all over its body also appeared!

A pig and a dog stood in front of their Beast Trainers, facing each other.

Mortal enemies, particularly rancorous when they meet.

Surprisingly, Mr. Husky hadn't forgotten the grudge from last time.

Seven days ago, it showed its intent to fight this boar, which merely glanced disdainfully in response...

"Err wu––" Mr. Husky growled lowly in resentment.

"Huff!" The wild boar swished its tail, its gaze heavy, seriously watching Mr. Husky without any of the previous disdain.

"Aren't you going to use a sword? When you challenged the Secret Realm, didn't you use sword weapons?" asked the Pig Farmer.

Lu Ran: "External forces aside, just fight normally."

"Okay," replied the Pig Farmer.

"Now, our problem is, after Rock Energy Coverage, its defensive power is quite strong, but compared to Wind Attribute Beasts, it doesn't have an advantage in terms of mobility or attack speed." n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

"So, I want to see in a real battle if there's any good way to counter opponents who are fast," he continued.

"You mean, all I need to do is let my Husky use its speed advantage to fight against you, right?" Lu Ran asked.

"Yep, yep," the Pig Farmer nodded!

"OK, Mr. Husky, Gale mode," Lu Ran clicked his fingers.

"Woof!"

The next moment, a sky-blue energy began to surface on Mr. Husky's body, and that energy slowly started to flow...

Seeing this, the Pig Farmer's expression instantly turned serious.

A Wind Attribute basic technique, Gale?! Had Passerby A and his team learned a new skill in just seven days??? At this stage, for beasts under level 10, not many actually possessed skills.

Even among the 70 divine pets from the Extraordinary Divine Pet Lists of the seven Infinite Cities of Xia Country, more than half had yet to master basic techniques.

Making it onto the list relied mainly on simple Energy Coverage over the body, then using their strong racial attributes to crush the opponent.

Shaping, Release, Flow, Compression—each high-level technique from these branches was not that easy to master. The experience amassed by veterans suggested that even with decent Talent in the corresponding areas, one would need at least half a month to a month of targeted training to grasp the fundamentals and master basic skills.
