Chapter 9: Chapter 9: Victory in the First Battle
"Cloud Hawk, Wind Blade." Richard Keith commanded.
Around the spread wings of the Cloud Hawk in the sky, wind energy gradually wrapped and formed two Wind Blades.
It then aimed its sharp eyes at Rainbow's position, before abruptly dropping some distance.
"Whoosh whoosh!" The whistling Wind Blades moved quickly, as the two sharp Blades rapidly attacked the Coldjade Snake.
"Rainbow, dodge quickly!"
Having used Icy Armor before the start of the battle as Cloud Hawk ascended, the little Rainbow was currently surrounded by a snowy-white ice shield shimmering around its petite body.
Upon hearing David Jones's command, it suppressed its body, quickly sprung away from its original spot, and instantly darted far away from where it had been coiling.
"Whoosh!" The Wind Blades moved quickly, but little Rainbow's reaction was even faster. As the Wind Blades missed their mark and hit the ground of the Battle Ground, broken stones splattered, and dust flew, creating two prominent scratches on the ground.
"Use Confusion to pull it down." Taking advantage of the moment Cloud Hawk swooped down to attack, David Jones seized the opportunity and immediately commanded with his thoughts.
The cute ice crystal on the little Rainbow's head instantly emitted an alternating blue-white light, and a surge of psychic power tightly enveloped the Cloud Hawk.
Just as the Cloud Hawk wanted to ascend after attacking and increase the distance between them, it felt a huge resistance coming from its wings, making its whole body shudder. It then immediately began struggling with all its might.
The powerful binding force restricted Cloud Hawk's movement, and the tug-of-war between Rainbow and Cloud Hawk made it impossible for the Cloud Hawk to control its flight. Its gray-black body began to plummet rapidly from the sky.
This scene caught Richard Keith off guard, and his confident face momentarily tensed. Was this a Class III skill, Confusion?
Before the battle, he had specifically reviewed the information about the Coldjade Snake, thinking that only its Innate Infatuation Talent would pose a threat to Cloud Hawk. However, he had never expected that this Coldjade Snake could also use Confusion!
"Escape with high-speed flight!" Richard Keith hurriedly exclaimed, having no time to think, and forgetting that he could convey commands with mental thoughts.
"Resist!" Just before being pulled down, a miniature airflow began swirling around Cloud Hawk's body. However, in the end, it still failed to successfully use the skill in its struggle and could not free itself from little Rainbow's control of psychic power. It was directly yanked to the ground by the little Rainbow's full force.
"Use Cold Breath to freeze it." At David Jones's command, little Rainbow's gaze grew even more concentrated as it spit out a cold, blue stream of frost, blowing it onto Cloud Hawk's body and freezing its right-wing solid completely.
"Thunk, thunk." This was the sound of Cloud Hawk falling and rolling on the ground after its flight ability was stripped away due to the Cold Breath attack.
"Cloud Hawk has lost its combat capability. The winner is David Jones." Mr. Job looked at David Jones with an approving gaze and then announced. freew ebnov el
"It ended so quickly?" The students watching the battle opened their mouths in surprise. The battle had only gone on for a little more than one round, and it ended way too fast!
"It's normal for a pet in its young stage to only have Innate Talent skills and be decided within a few moves."
"Yeah, my Earth Wolfhound can only use Rock Claw and Bite at the moment."
"Let's not talk about Intermediate pets; it seems that in our class, only Sarah Hubert, David Jones, Richard Keith, and John Hornby can train Superior pets. I really want to have a pet battle with them!"
"That's true, but Sarah Hubert's Thunder Mink and John Hornby's Thorny Fish are both Green Superior pets, just like Cloud Hawk."
"What's wrong with being Intermediate? In Waterland City, there have been cases of Intermediate pets defeating Superior pets. It's just the first day, and when I train my Rock Sparrow well, it will be no match for a Superior pet in the same class!"
"...You haven't even awakened your Innate Talent yet, where's your confidence coming from?"
The surrounding students argued and teased while their conversations gradually started to digress.
David Jones took a big step forward, excitedly hugged little Rainbow in his arms, and then began to gently massage its head, secretly using the "Dragon Force" to reward Rainbow.
"You did great; this is your reward." David Jones conveyed with his thoughts. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝙚𝒘𝙚𝙗𝙣𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝙘𝒐𝓶
"Yiya." Sensing the faint current flowing from David Jones's warm palm, little Rainbow made a crisp cry of comfort. Its petite delicate body seemed to become even more slender.
The joy in David Jones's eyes as he watched the change in little Rainbow, surprised him, and he asked, "Did it awaken and grow?"
It seemed that the battle could indeed quickly enhance a pet's growth. Little Rainbow had only promoted to Fresh Level VIII yesterday when it contracted. Today, it had already been promoted to Fresh Level IX. As expected, it had an SS tier potential.
Of course, little Rainbow's rapid promotion was due in no small part to David Jones's cultivation efforts; his Innate Talent also played a significant role.
As David Jones and Rainbow interacted intimately, Richard Keith on the other side looked depressed and recalled Cloud Hawk into his Star Ring.
He had already lost even before he had used his Innate Talent, and he could not accept it for a moment.
"What are you standing there for? Go to the infirmary and treat your pet quickly. Do you want to leave any sequelae?" The class teacher scolded Richard Keith, who was still standing in place, and then turned to give the other onlooking students a lesson.
"After a pet has fought, it must be treated promptly to avoid affecting the pet's future potential. However, when they are no longer Fresh pets and have grown to Class I, this kind of frostbite can be withdrawn into the Star Ring, and by consuming Psychic Power through the Arcane Star, it can quickly heal."
David Jones looked at Richard Keith, who fed Cloud Hawk a Healing Potion in a dreamy manner, and could not help but laugh. He had already told little Rainbow to show mercy.
Cloud Hawk had only been frostbitten on its right wing by the Cold Breath. Such light injuries would only require a visit to the infirmary to heal quickly. However, he didn't expect Richard Keith to be so generous and directly fed it a Healing Potion. Was this the generosity of the wealthy? It was unlike him, who had to break a penny in half to spend.
Having determined the outcome, John Hornby jogged over to David Jones. "That was amazing! If my Thorny Fish could also be on land, I'd want to have a pet battle with you too."
"Let's not do that. There will be plenty of opportunities. Let's wait until our pets are Class I to compare skills."
After putting the energetic little Rainbow in his arms back into the Star Ring, David Jones stood up and patted John Hornby on the shoulder. "Instead of battling, let's hurry up and practice our skills at the Trainer Guild, lest the time comes and there are no more slots available!"
A gentle breeze blew, bringing a hint of coolness.
David Jones and John Hornby hadn't walked far before they were stopped by Richard Keith nearby.
"I admit my loss, and you're very strong. But I'll win against you next time."
Richard Keith, who had regained his senses, put away his dejected feelings and walked up to David Jones. He took out two Healing Potions, and without waiting for David Jones's response, he left after saying that.
"The idea is beautiful, but reality can be cruel!"
As he watched Richard Keith's desolate figure, David Jones thought to himself silently.
