124: Drill bit that breaks through the flames

A Beast Tamer's command is absolute.

At least, that was the case for the Flame Lion.

Hearing the command, the Flame Lion's four limbs bent painfully.

Sounds of grinding teeth emanated from its mouth.

The flames on its body turned from orange-red to an eerie deep red, and a more scorching aura than before burst forth from the Flame Lion's surface.

"It's Blood Burning Burst! Contestant Zhang Kai actually made the Flame Lion use this move. He wants to decide the outcome with one blow!"

"That Ghost Orchid is in danger now!"

The audience's hearts were in their throats.

"I originally planned to save this for the finals, but I didn't expect you to force it out of me. Never mind, as long as I defeat you, I still have a way to hype things up."

Zhang Kai clutched his heart, his eyes bloodshot as he looked at Xiao Lan.

He pushed his Elemental Amplification to its limit, and even around him, a scorching mist began to spread.

Facing the suddenly powerful Flame Lion, even Xiao Lan felt some pressure.

It seems I need to reveal some of my strength.

Xiao Lan sighed silently in its heart. It had originally intended to use all its methods in the finals.

It didn't expect to have to use some of them in the preliminary rounds.

It no longer defended, retracting all its Vine Whips, condensing them in front of itself, and spinning them at high speed.

In an instant, it formed a giant Vine Whip Drill, over two meters in diameter, glowing emerald green, and incredibly sharp at the tip!

"Is this still a Vine Whip?"

"It used a Vine Whip as a drill?!"

"This proficiency is absolutely superb!"

The audience was once again astonished by Xiao Lan's incredible move.

Vine Whip, as one of the basic Intermediate Skills for Grass-type Demonic Beasts, can be mastered by most Grass-type Demonic Beasts when they grow to the Extraordinary Level.

But they had never seen anyone use Vine Whip with such mastery before.

They were already surprised that Xiao Lan had so many Vine Whips, and now it could even make them function like other Skills.

How did it manage to spin the Vine Whips without them getting tangled?

The Flame Lion opened its maw, and a deep red flame pillar, several times thicker than before, shot out.

Xiao Lan controlled the Vine Whip Drill and met it head-on.

Plant against flame.

Drill against pillar.

Under the anxious gaze of the entire audience, they collided fiercely!

Hiss!

It only stalemated for a few seconds.

The rotating drill was surrounded by a whirlwind capable of tearing apart cars.

The flame pillar couldn't even touch the Vine Whip's main body before it was brutally torn into countless sparks by the high-speed rotating Vine Whip Drill.

"Huh?!"

Sparks landed on Zhang Kai's clothes, burning small black spots into his expensive attire.

But he no longer cared about such trivial matters; his eyes nearly popped out of his head.

The power of Flame Jet in its Blood Burning Burst state could easily melt steel, yet it was broken by a pile of vines?

Even as he was shocked, Xiao Lan's offensive wouldn't stop.

After crushing the flame pillar, the enormous Vine Whip Drill continued its momentum.

Like a green Dragon, it crossed dozens of meters and appeared before the Flame Lion.

The Flame Lion tried to dodge, but due to the weakness after using Blood Burning Burst, its movements were half a beat too slow.

Pfft!

The tip of the Vine Whip Drill easily pierced through the Flame Lion's fiery shield.

It plunged into its thigh, drawing a gush of hot blood.

Xiao Lan remembered its Beast Tamer's teachings and would not easily take the lives of other Demonic Beasts.

But this injury was not light.

The Flame Lion wailed in pain.

Its body was pushed back repeatedly by the impact, finally falling heavily to the ground, its entire leg covered in blood.

A faint scent of blood wafted from it, mingled with the burning flames.

One move to decide the victor!

The Vine Whip Drill didn't stop there. It changed direction with a sharp whooshing sound, shooting directly towards Zhang Kai, who was stunned at the edge of the arena.

"Ah!"

Zhang Kai looked at the drill tip constantly enlarging in his pupils, scared out of his wits, his Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering.

His legs went soft, and he collapsed onto the ground.

Warm liquid flowed from his pants.

"Wait!"

The referee's mechanical Demonic Beast was about to intervene, but just as the tip of the drill was about to touch his forehead, it stopped abruptly.

The tip of the Vine Whip Drill was less than five centimeters from Zhang Kai's forehead.

He could even smell the fresh scent of grass and wood emanating from it.

It wasn't until the referee subconsciously blew the final whistle that everyone woke up as if from a dream.

"Winner, Ghost Orchid!"

The referee announced with lingering fear, raising the flag in his hand high.

If the Ghost Orchid had really pierced Zhang Kai's head, he didn't know what would happen to the Ghost Orchid, but he probably wouldn't be able to be a referee for official matches for the rest of his life.

He couldn't even stop an attack from a Intermediate Extraordinary Level Demonic Beast; he was a Third-Tier Beast Tamer for nothing.

In the arena, the giant Vine Whip Drill disintegrated.

It reverted into dozens of emerald green Vine Whips, which gracefully retracted behind Xiao Lan.

"Strong! Too strong! How did its Beast Tamer train it?"

"That final drill almost split open that guy named Zhang Kai's head."

"Serves him right, for being so arrogant before the match. Now he's scared himself silly, hahaha!"

"Hopefully, this video doesn't spread outside Blue-Eyed White Dragon City."

A spectator glanced at their phone; there were already live clips so quickly.

Fortunately, there were no celebrity figures in this match, otherwise, Zhang Kai would have been utterly humiliated, though the humiliation now was still significant.

At the commentary desk, the two commentators also recovered from their shock.

"Contestant Ghost Orchid not only defeated the powerful Flame Lion despite being at a disadvantage in both attribute and Rank!"

"Even I can't figure out what method its Beast Tamer, Bai Ye, used to cultivate such a miracle."

Phantom Snow calmly put away her fan sign.

Senior Xiao Lan indeed did not disappoint her, or rather, the way it won was an eye-opener.

Not only did it win, but it won beautifully.

She glanced at Xiao Hei, who was still burying its head in food beside her, and shook her head helplessly.

"Meow?"

Xiao Hei finished the last bit of popcorn, licked its paws, and looked up to ask.

Why is she looking at me? Didn't Senior Xiao Lan win very handsomely?

Although it only saw the final winning moment of Xiao Lan.

Phantom Snow gently tapped its head with her tail, conveying the thought, "You should be called Garfield."

After the match, medical personnel quickly rushed into the arena, carrying away the unconscious Flame Lion and the distraught Zhang Kai.

Xiao Lan, amidst the cheers of the entire audience, returned to the contestantrest area alone, taking light "steps" with two Vine Whips.

Defeating an Transcendence High-rank is nothing.

It is an orchid that aims to emulate Beast Tamers; crossing greater Realms is its goal.

Unfortunately, there were no Elite Rank in this competition, so its wish could not be fulfilled for now.
