After using cheats, I became the strongest Beast Tamer

"Don't feel pressured, just play normally," Tong Xuhua looked back and encouraged Chen Xing.

In fact, it was his first time participating in the Shu State Cup as well.

However, apart from the Shu State Cup, he and the other two had privately participated in quite a few smaller competitions over the past two years.

He just hoped that Chen Xing would be able to perform normally later on.

"Don't worry."

Meanwhile, the Guanghu No. 1 Middle School team also looked towards Chen Xing and his teammates.

Unlike Cangwu No. 8 Middle School, the expressions of the Guanghu No. 1 Middle School team were significantly more relaxed.

What a laugh, competing in high school first year sounds intimidating.

The school's coaching staff had spent a lot of effort obtaining intelligence that they had already reviewed countless times.

They acknowledged that the opponent Chen Xing was indeed a genius, his Salty Bay Crocodile had broken multiple historical records, and if they were dealing with someone of the same age, they presumed they would have no chance.

But this is the Shu State Cup!

The opponent's Beast Taming maximum energy level was around twenty-something.

Even if it was a bit larger than the average beast, and its physical strength was stronger than those of the same level.

But strength also had its limits, how much stronger could it get?

Could it really defeat their teammates across such a wide energy level gap? That's a joke!

Once their teammates defeated the weak links on the opposing team and came to their support, they would break the opponent's beasts one by one, the victory would definitely belong to them.

The two teams, each composed of four members, stood on their respective command platforms and exchanged glances.

At the same time, they raised their hands.

Summoning circle, activate!

Brilliant light flared up.

At the same moment, eight beasts appeared on either side of the field.

Almost at the same time, exclamations erupted again from the audience.

"What did I just see!? Isn't that a full-grown Salty Bay Crocodile!" the host exclaimed.

"If it was a high school third-year's beast, I might not be surprised, but this is a beast nurtured by a first-year student, and according to the data, Chen Xing's beast has been cultivated for less than three months!"

It wasn't just the audience who were taken aback—countless people watching on television simultaneously raised a question in their minds.

You're telling me this size is less than three months old?

Salty Bay Crocodiles were already not small in Beast Taming, aside from the Giant Tree Turtle, the other two beasts seemed utterly adorable and tiny in its presence.

In Cangwu, inside a luxurious office on the top floor of Fangcun Pharmaceuticals' building, Qiu Qiuyu watched Chen Xing's beast on her phone screen with shining eyes, "Good kid, his Salty Bay Crocodile is getting more and more exaggerated. The old man would be overjoyed if he saw this."

Having been influenced by her father since childhood, Qiu Qiuyu was very fond of Salty Bay Crocodiles, especially large and strong ones.

Suddenly, her phone vibrated.

A message popped up.

"Dad, did you see my entrance? I'm starting today!"

Qiu Qiuyu was stunned for a moment, then gave an embarrassed smile.

But she replied affectionately, "I saw it, my daughter is the coolest!"

Moments later, her phone vibrated again!

"Liar! I haven't even made an appearance!!! My match is the second one, you big fibber!!!"

...

Chen Xing looked towards the opposite side.

Just like the intelligence they had gathered.

The four beasts of Guanghu No. 1 Middle School's team were a pig, a deer, and two dogs.

The two dogs were familiar to Chen Xing; they were the evolved forms of Senior Tian Xuechuan's Ghost-Faced Mastiff—Devil Commander Dogs.

The deer was the Nine-Aspect Deer, and the pig was an evolved form of the Mining Pig—Earthquake Pig.

Chen Xing's opponent was this Nine-Aspect Deer, a herbivore that reached three meters in length, with a shoulder height of 2.5 meters and weighing 1.5 tons as an adult.

The most magical thing about the Nine-Aspect Deer was its Wood Element attribute.

But it had nine different evolutionary forms, each with a chance to awaken nine different attributes, hence it was named the Nine-Aspect Deer.

However... in front of the Taotie, whose body length reaches 9.2 meters, the Nine-Aspect Deer doesn't seem so large after all.

"The competition begins!" the judge shouted.

The competition officially started.

The Beast Tamers from both sides quickly drew close.

The Taotie instantly approached the nearest water source and merged into the water, its massive body blending in and causing ripples to spread out.

Apart from the guests invited by the television program analyzing the situation, the host remained silent.

Since the competition had begun, there could be no commentary on-site.

Almost at the same time, the Furious Lichen Ape jumped onto the back of the Giant Breeding Turtle, the Shadow Sleek Cat merged into the shadows, and also leaped onto the back of the Giant Breeding Turtle, which then strode forward with its massive paws and charged towards the opposing side.

The four opponents across were momentarily stunned, then realized what was happening. Were they trying to form an iron triangle defense?

The Giant Breeding Turtle had an amazing defense, and the plan was to use it as a "tank" to protect the other Beast Tamers as they approached.

Heh, not a bad idea.

But as it happens, they had the same thought.

The muscles on the two Devil Commander Dogs bulged, their pelvic muscles raised high, and both ears stood erect.

After exchanging a glance, they sped off in tandem, one to the left and one to the right, rapidly approaching the Giant Breeding Turtle.

Dogs were inherently collective fighters, and in team battles, dog-type Beast Tamers, especially of the same breed, coordinated uncannily well.

And the Earthquake Pig, large in size, charged directly at the Giant Breeding Turtle.

The Earthquake Pig was enormous, weighing over seven tons.

Extremely huge and plump, it was even more formidable than the Giant Breeding Turtle.

Due to its massive size, each step it took caused the ground to tremble slightly, thus earning it the name Earthquake Pig.

The Earth Element Attribute beast was not only formidable in defense but also terrifying when charging head-on.

It was considered one of the top Earth Element barriers in the free Beast Taming pool.

On the other side, the Nine-Aspect Deer's two ears perked up high, its sense of hearing extraordinarily sharp.

If the Taotie stayed still, it might not have noticed it, but the disturbances and waves caused by the Taotie's massive body moving in the water could not be concealed.

The Nine-Aspect Deer leapt up, its agile body closing in on the Taotie.

The Taotie intended to attack it, but it wasn't opposed to beating the Taotie first.

Both sides were getting closer and closer.

Suddenly, the air became damp.

The officials from the safety judging team sensed the abnormality at the same time.

The Beast Tamers beside them raised their heads in unison.

"Did you hear that..."

"I heard it."

"Interesting."

In the air, the faint sound of roaring waves grew clearer and louder.

Some discerning audience members excitedly stood up.

Dammit, isn't this kind of grand scene exactly what you watch a competition for!

The four opponents were not fools, perhaps because of a lack of combat experience, they hadn't noticed anything unusual at the first sign.

But as the sky grew dim and the roar of the waves, like the angry dragons' roars, grew closer, they would truly be idiots if they still didn't know what was coming!

"Not good, run for it, head for higher ground, get close to the Earthquake Pig," the members of the Guanghu No.1 Middle School team hurriedly gave orders.

But apart from the two Devil Commander Dogs that were close enough to reach the Earthquake Pig, the Nine-Aspect Deer was too far away and had no chance to make it in time!

"Great! Flood!"

Rumbling!!!

In the void, countless water elements converged, forming a raging, towering flood that descended furiously.

It was as if the gods' cataclysmic deluge washed over the mortal world!

Amidst the rolling waves, the fierce silhouette of the Taotie rode the surge, charging ferociously at the Nine-Aspect Deer!!!
