Chapter 486: Toad Team

her head bowed, but Jiang Yun recognized her at once – it was Xia Mingzhu!Not only did Ginger Cloud recognize him, but most of the people around also recognized him.The first beauty of the Nanman lan...At this very moment, not just within the arena but throughout the entire city of Xia, a deathly silence had fallen.

Together with Yu Cangwu and others on the other nine platforms, everyone's eyes were focused on the seventh platform.

This is the real moment to be in the spotlight!

This battle is the last match of the first round of this year's Beast Fighting Tournament!

Although Xia Mingyuan's choice to challenge Jiang Yun came as a surprise to everyone, it has to be said that the confrontation between these two individuals is bound to be incredibly exciting.

One is a direct descendant of the Daoist lineage passed down for tens of thousands of years on the Southern Barbarian land;

He was an unknown who owned several powerful beasts, and rose to fame at this Beast Fighting Tournament.

Whether the Xia family will be able to take over as the seventh champion of the platform, or if Jiang Yun will defeat the Xia family and enter the top ten as the first batch of champions, everyone is waiting with bated breath.

Xia Mingyuan's whole body was trembling uncontrollably, he wasn't afraid, but excited!

He could even imagine that when he defeated, no, killed Jiang Yun, his name would not only appear on the Xia family's honor roll but also spread throughout the entire Nanzhi land.

Even, it spread throughout the world, known to all!

"Whew!"

To soothe his excitement, Xia Mingyuan could only keep taking deep breaths, while telling himself in his heart: "Xia Mingyuan, calm down, calm down!"

"These are just small obstacles, this Ginger Cloud is merely a stepping stone on your path to fame. Don't get too excited!"

Compared to Xia Mingyuan's excitement, Jiang Yun was much calmer.

He remained seated, his face impassive as he stared at Xia Mingyuan.

To be honest, Ginger Cloud felt a little disappointed in her heart at this moment.

For Xia Mingyuan's challenge to himself, he doesn't find it surprising.

Even for the Xia family, although he didn't have a good feeling about them, he was still quite looking forward to the Xia family being able to bring him some surprises and let him see the true power of powerful exotic beasts.

However, unexpectedly, the person sent by the Xia family turned out to be just this sort of character!

Xia Mingyuan stretched out a finger and pointed at Jiang Yun, saying: "Jiang Yun, although I can defeat you instantly, it would be too anticlimactic to end it so quickly. So, I'm going to torture you slowly!"

Actually, the two words "boring," are the most genuine reflection in Jiang Yun's mind at this moment.

As Xia Mingyuan's voice fell, a green toad appeared before him.

It was half-man, its bulging eyes gleaming faintly green. Its entire body was covered in countless poisonous bumps, each one writhing slowly, making it utterly disgusting to look at.

"Poison Toad, it seems like the Xia family is participating in the Beast Fighting Tournament with a Toad Battle Squad this time!"

"Well, the Xia family sent out a Lizard Beast Squad last summer. This time they've switched to Toads, both are really tough opponents!"

"Let's see if this Ginger Cloud has any amazing performance this time!"

In the stands, whispers had already begun amongst the spectators, and these sounds naturally reached Jiang Yun's ears clearly, causing a stir in his heart.

This summer, the familiars of the Xia family have even been organized into battle squads. So, does this so-called Toad Battle Squad mean that the entire squad is composed of toads

That's right!

Of all the tribes on the Nanman lands, the Xia clan is the most adept at taming beasts.

While other tribes possess a multitude of tamed beasts, their variety is diverse and commonplace. The Xia clan, however, stands apart.

The Xia family's beast tamers specifically select the same species of beasts to form a battle beast squad. They then focus on training and taming them together.

Every year at the Beast Fighting Tournament, the Xia family sends out a unique team of war beasts. To this day, there has never been a repeat team, which speaks volumes about the sheer number of beasts the Xia family possesses.

These things are not really secrets. Most groups know about them, and it's not hard to find out.

However, Ginger Cloud had never paid attention to related news, so she was a little surprised to hear the discussions of the crowd at this moment.

But for him, these were not problems at all!

No matter what kind of war beast team the Xia family sent, it would be nearly impossible to defeat him.

However, Jiang Yun's disappointment was reduced considerably because the toad in front of him was obviously stronger than all the monsters he had encountered in the past ten days.

After looking at the toad and then at the blood wolf, Jiang Yun decided to put it away for now.

Because toads are one of the five poisons, their whole body is poisonous, especially the bumps on their backs, which are full of venom.

...while the Blood Wolf excels only in close-combat attacks. If it were to even slightly lose its guard and come into contact with the toad's body, touching those toxins, not even Jiang Yun would be able to detoxify it within a short time.

Therefore, Jiang Yun didn't even bother with the Blood Wolf's struggle. With a wave of his sleeve, he retracted it, and at the same time, a golden light surged outward, appearing before everyone.

Golden Gang Demon Ape!

Although the Jin Gang Demon Ape, originally tens of feet tall, is now shrunk to about the size of a normal human, its body, forged like gold, still radiates with light. Its muscles are high and prominent, clearly containing even greater power.

Upon seeing the Golden Gang Demon Ape, onlookers were also invigorated.

Because this is the fourth monster released by Jiang Yun, and just looking at the appearance of the demon ape, it is so majestic, its strength must also be extremely powerful.

"Roar!"

As soon as the Golden Gang Demon Ape appeared, it let out a furious roar and slammed its fists against its chest repeatedly, producing deafening bone-jarring sounds.

Immediately following, golden threads began to sprout on its towering body, as if alive, swirling around it ceaselessly until they transformed into a magnificent golden sword, grasped firmly in its hand!

This is the reason why Jiang Yun chose to send it into battle!

With a weapon in hand, the Golden Gang Demon Ape would not directly touch the toad's body.

Xia Mingyuan was indeed very patient, waiting for Jiang Yun all along. Now that he saw the Golden Gang Demon Ape clearly ready to go, he laughed and said, "Go ahead!"

"Quack, quack!"

Just then, a pair of crisp croaks emanated from the toad's mouth. The poisonous lumps on its body simultaneously cracked open, beginning to spray streams of foul-smelling green liquid directly at the Golden Gang Demon Ape.

Facing these liquids, the Golden Ape King clenched his greatsword in both hands and danced wildly, like a giant wheel, protecting himself from head to toe with an impenetrable defense.

The sound of "bang bang bang" filled the air as the green liquid projectiles were blocked by the greatsword, splattering onto the surrounding ring. Immediately, a puff of blue smoke would rise and a sizzling sound would emanate from where it landed.

Obviously, these liquids contain deadly poison!

Though not a single drop of venom landed on the Golden Armored Demon Ape, just the sheer force of the toads' attacks had left the platform within a hundred zhang radius riddled with holes.

Everything was covered in these toxins, and countless wisps of green smoke rose, forming a continuous cloud of poison.

Unless the demon ape can leap a hundred zhang in one go, once it moves, it will step on those toxins.

Seeing this scene, someone couldn't help but say: "It's over, this monkey is going to lose. It can't move at all, standing there it will be suffocated by the poison gas, how could it possibly be the toad's opponent!"

Jiang Yun also frowned slightly and said, "Xiaoyuan, strike quickly and decisively!"

"Quack quack!"

The toad croaked twice more, its mouth ballooning as it spat out a glowing green orb at incredible speed, aimed directly at the immobile demon ape.

However, just when most people thought the Golden Armored Ape would inevitably be hit by the light orb, it forcefully threw the golden sword in its hand.
