"Round 2 Quarterfinal match between Qingzhou Academy led by Sun Zan and Tianjing Academy led by Gao Xun begins!" the referee said into his mic as the students standing there waiting for him to announce that
Woosh* Woosh* Woosh*
In front of Sun Zan, a blazing red light flooded the space in front of him as a large fiery ape standing over 3 meters tall with rock-like armor throughout its body, started banging its chest and roared
Roar*
[Monster: Fiery Molten Ape]
[Grade: Rare]
[Level: 18]
[Type: Beast (Ape)]
[Element: Fire and Earth]
[Information: Born within the core of volcanoes, its tolerance to flames makes it almost invincible. The earth like armor on its body helps it to be more tolerant towards its greatest weakness water]
His two team members too released their monsters
[Monster: Blitz Cat]
[Grade: Uncommon]
[Level: 13]
[Type: Beast (Cat)]
[Element: Lightning]
[Monster: Oakwood Hound]
[Grade: Common]
[Level: 12]
[Type: Beast (Dog)]
[Element: Wood]
Though his teammates didn't have anything too special it's still quite rare to have a lightning element monster which is why it is categorized as an Uncommon grade even though its species is numerous
Just by looking at the Molten Ape's grade and level, Ye Qin could tell that the difference between Sun Zan and He Ru who was Ye Qin's opponent is as great as the heaven and earth. Though they are both the same level, the difference in strength and difficulty in leveling only makes the difference that much greater
Woosh* Woosh*
In front of Gao Xun, a deep blue flash of light illuminates him as a pale blue dolphin-like monster cries whilst spraying water from blowhole on its head
[Monster: Flooding Dolphin]
[Grade: Uncommon]
[Level: 16]
[Type: Fish]
[Element: Water]
His teammates too called out their monsters in unison to give him a movie like entrance to the field
[Monster: Deep Blue Hound]
[Grade: Common]
[Level: 12]
[Type: Beast (Dog)]
[Element: Water]
[Monster: Deep Blue Cat]
[Grade: Common]
[Level: 12]
[Type: Beast (Cat)]
[Element: Water]
After every monster was summoned to the field, the battle between Sun Zan and Gao Xun officially begun. Making the first move, the Blitz Cat became a bolt of lightning and flashed by the side of the Molten Ape as it headed towards the Deep Blue Cat
Bzz* Bzz*
The Blitz Cat made contact as it zapped the Deep Blue Cat then the two cats had a battle of species whilst the Oakwood Hound created an endless forest of vines before enacting itself into the field as it stood tall like a mountain
Woosh* Woosh*
The vines created by the Oakwood Hound grew in size and length as it flew towards the Deep Blue Hound and entangled it whilst separating it from Sun Zan and Gao Xun's battle
Roar*
The Molten Ape pounded its chest fiercely as it slams the ground creating pillars of flame that reached for the Flooding Dolphin that surrounded itself in a barrier of water made of its own elemental energy
Pow* Pow*
The pillars of flames hit the surface of the water and instantly evaporates as it fails to penetrate the defense of the Dolphin
Pssh* Pssh*
The Flooding Dolphin returned an attack to the Molten Ape as it sprays a thin but powerful tsunami of water at the ape's thick earthen armor
Roar*
The Molten Ape took the attack head-on as the deep cracks within its earthen armor glows a blazing red and vaporize the water turning it into steam. Seeing that the attack didn't work, the Flooding Dolphin changed the shape of its water barrier making it closely outline the light blue body of the dolphin giving it an appearance that resembled armor as it slowly became darker in color as well as thicker
After creating an aura of water that was thick enough, the Flooding Dolphin started flying around in a circle as trails of water leaked and flowed from its thin tail
Flows* Flows*
The trails of water quickly turned into tiny razor sharp spikes that flew towards the Molten Ape whilst the Flooding Dolphin itself darted towards the ape just like when the Blitz Cat became a bolt of lightning
The Molten Ape slams its fists into the ground as a thick slab of earth shields itself from the spikes of water whilst the Flooding Dolphin penetrated through the wall of earth and slammed itself into the chest of the ape
Roar*
The Molten Ape took some damage as it roared before heating itself up and slowly grabbed the body of the Flooding Dolphin and started burning away at its flesh
Shri* Shri*
The two monsters attacks continued to a standstill before the Flooding Dolphin gave in and released itself from the grasp of the Molten Ape and swung its tail at the ape's head with a layer of water element
Pow*
The Molten Ape's thick armor protected it from the attack and mitigated the damage taken from the attack as it reached out for the dolphin's body only for it to miss completely
Roar*
Shri* Shri*
The Flooding Dolphin turned its body into a torpedo of water that could cut through steel like butter as it began to move at its greatest speed and slowly chip away at the thick armor of the Molten Ape
Roar* Roar*
Growing tired of the same move, the Molten Ape's tail glows a fiery red as it perfectly timed out the specific location of the dolphin when it reached its back and then lashed out its tail that whacked away the Flooding Dolphin. Its attacks didn't end there as the Molten Ape grabs it once again with its burning tail and shifts the dolphin tangled in its tail in front of it as its hands continue to burn brightly
"Looks like that's it for Gao Xun." Ye Qin said
"Yup the next attack will end it." Wang Tao replied
Back to the arena, Sun Zan's ape swung its right arm forward as it punched the Flooding Dolphin's body before swinging its other arm at it and repeating the cycle at great speeds
Pow* Pow* Pow* Pow*
The endless barrage of punches tormented the Flooding Dolphin as it wailed and cried out. Suddenly, the Deep Blue Cat and Hound that was preoccupied with the other monsters changed their target and sent their most powerful attack at the Molten Ape
