Chapter 113 Ice Vs Fire

The boy saw an opportunity and commanded his contract beast, "Spiky Lizard, use a 'Spike Missile' attack." The contract beast followed the command of his master and jumped into the sky before pointing its Spiky back towards the opponent and releasing a 'Spike Missile' attack.

Two spikes covered in fire came out of its back and started moving toward the opponent with black smoke coming out of them. The trainer of Frost Spider also saw it; She commanded her contract beast to use 'Ice Armor.'

The body of her contract beast started shining white, after which an armor made up of ice appeared over its body.

The reflection of two spikes approaching as missiles could be seen in the crystal-like armor. Just before the spikes were about to reach their target and hit its back, the trainer of Spiky Lizard commanded, "Spiky, use 'Autotomy Control,' and change the target from back to its stomach."

The Spiky Lizard's eyes shone in a blue color as it fell; it pointed its arm at the two spikes, started controlling them, and changed its target.

The Frost Spider opened its eyes when it saw there was no impact. It was confused when it heard the voice of its master, "No,"

Two consecutive explosions could be heard back to back below the Frost Spider.

These explosions threw its body in the air, making it vulnerable to attacks. The trainer of Spiky Lizard smirked and commanded, "Spiky, use 'Fire Punch' to end the match."

The Spiky Lizard jumped at its opponent with its right hand, charging the attack. A small fire appeared on its right hand and solidified, increasing the fire energy.

The trainer of Frost Spider saw it and commanded, "Spidey, use 'Stick Web' back to back to trap it."

The Frost Spider followed its trainer's command and used the 'Sticky Web' skill in rapid succession. The opponent dodged the first attack, but the other two landed on him, making him unable to move.

The trainer with spiky green hair saw it, and a bead of sweat appeared on his face. This was not a good situation for him, so he commanded his contract beast, "Spiky, use 'Fired Up," and keep charging 'Fire Punch.' "

The Spiky Lizard heard its master and followed his command; his whole body started to burn in fire, destroying the web covering its body. The girl with two plaits was disappointed but maintained her composure and commanded, "Spidey, use 'Haunt' and 'Icicle Crash.' "

The Frost Spider, which was falling down, used the 'Haunt' skill, and its two eyes shone in a purple glow; it looked at its opponent to scare him before using 'Icicle Crash.' The whole body of Spidey started shining, and in a blink of an eye, it turned into an icy crystal falling towards its opponent.

"This looks like the final clash, but I believe the trainer of Frost Spider doesn't know that while using the 'fired up' skill, the Spiky Lizard gets not only an attack boost but also some tenacity. Which will reduce the stun effect of the "haunt' skill," said the commentator.

The trainer of Frost Spider also realized it; her eyebrows squinted when she saw that Spiky Lizard, which was only unable to move a moment ago, moved and brought its right hand a little back before punching at the Frozen Crystal coming at it.

The fully charged 'Fire Punch' and an icy crystal collided, creating a big explosion. The audience saw the smoke, which blurred their view for a moment before two projectiles became visible in their vision, moving in opposite directions.

One was a spider-like creature partially covered in ice; its back hit the top of the barrier on the right side. A 'hiss' sound came out of the spider before it fainted; the remaining ice on its body also broke apart, and a blue barrier appeared around it, protecting it from getting injured.

"Spidey," the trainer of the frost Spider cried when it saw the condition of her contract beast; her eyes also became a little moist; if there had been no barrier separating her from her partner, she would have jumped on the battleground to check its condition.

The other projectile hit the bottom of the left barrier; It was a lizard-like creature with spikes on its back. It remained paralyzed for a second before it slowly stood up with its shaking legs and hissed at everyone as if declaring his victory.

The referee announced, "The Frost Spider is unable to continue, so the trainer of Spiky Lizard is the winner."

The trainer of Spiky Lizard jumped in joy and wanted to celebrate when he heard a 'thud.' sound he turned and saw that his contract beast had fallen to the ground. He forgot about everything else and ran towards his contract beast, repeatedly punching the barrier to break it; he had even taken out his spear, but the barrier was already gone.

He ran towards his contract beast and looked at its condition; he patted the head of it. The contract beast hissed and tried to convey that it was fine, but the beat tamer ignored it and summoned it back before running toward the medical department.

"It looks like the small miscalculation of the trainer of Frost Spider has caused her the match, but then also, this match was still very close. Would you like to comment on something, Anjali?" said the commentator.

"It was a very phenomenal match; both trainers did well, but I was especially impressed by the trainer of Frost Spider; her quick decision-making skill is really impressive. The boy also fought well; it appears as if he had practiced this combo many times; it was very well executed," said Anjali.

"Let's now move on to our next battle," said the commentator. Many battles took place after the first one; all the battles were not as interesting as the first one but were equally entertaining.

"The battles of the Hard category are over; now is the time for the battles of the Expert category. Let's see which two students will fight the first battle," said the commentator as everyone looked at the big screen where two names were chosen.

The audience cheered when they saw the names of the two participants; the first one was Aditya Tyagi, while the other was Kajal Agastya. Everyone started paying attention to this battle; both participants were popular and had a huge fan following, especially Kajal, who was not only famous for her beauty and strength but was also a renowned alchemy genius.

Aditya stood up from his seat and started walking toward the stage; he might have already lost the guild competition, but his attitude had not changed a bit; he still had a cocky grin on his face.

Rishi saw him, 'It looks like he forgot his beating; that's why he is so cocky again. I will need to give him another dose in the next exam, but for now, I only wish Kajal would teach him a lesson." A smirk came onto his face as he rubbed his hands.

A smile made everyone look more beautiful, but this one caused goosebumps on the student's bodies around Rishi. The GIF of this smirk was famous in the Academy; it was captured at the moment when Rishi smirked after eliminating a whole team that was sleeping.
