Divine Beast Creator-Chapter 2168 - 2169: Challenge Training

Feng Yuan initially thought there would be no one at this battle arena at this hour, but when he arrived, he found he was mistaken.

Although students in their grade had just returned and indeed wouldn’t come for battle training at this time, it didn’t mean students from other grades wouldn’t.

"Hmm, it’s hard to pick an opponent, let me think..."

Feng Yuan touched his chin, hesitating a bit as he watched the students who were training. Approaching them directly wasn’t out of the question, considering Xiao Ji’s strength was sufficient, but the Fluffy Fire Wolfhound was lacking somewhat. Moreover, just battling seemed like a waste of such a good opportunity.

Since it was already quite late, even if there were some students training, there weren’t many. Rarely, most of the battle arena was empty. Feng Yuan’s eyes sparkled with an idea as he walked towards the teacher responsible for overseeing the battle arena at night. If he wanted to proceed with his plans, he needed the teacher to help coordinate.

"What is that guy trying to do?"

In the dormitory, Agunas, who was resting, was startled by the sudden commotion. Tamur gently shook his body and said,

"His ideas are really strange."

"That guy... sigh, I hope he knows what he’s doing." 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

Waving his tail, Agunas thought about it for a moment and decided not to go see what was going on. He didn’t believe it was for something serious that Feng Yuan would do this. Probably, he had come up with some mischievous idea again.

The huge White Wolf stood majestically in the battle arena. Xiao Ji looked at the White Wolf Deity with high spirits while the Fluffy Fire Wolfhound’s head drooped, eyeing Feng Yuan incredulously.

It never expected that the interesting opponent Feng Yuan promised would be this!

Though the Fluffy Fire Wolfhound didn’t know the White Wolf Deity, it wasn’t dumb; such formidable aura and presence surely indicated that the White Wolf Deity was a Divine Beast like Agunas and the others!

Despite feeling timid, when faced with a challenge, the Fluffy Fire Wolfhound wouldn’t shy away. Seeing Feng Yuan had no intention of changing his mind, the Fluffy Fire Wolfhound reluctantly walked up beside Xiao Ji.

At this moment, several nearby battle arenas were temporarily cleared out; this was something Feng Yuan requested. Initially, the teacher wasn’t clear about what Feng Yuan wanted to do until he saw the appearance of the White Wolf Deity; he could only marvel at Feng Yuan’s broad "connections."

"Get ready, it’s about to start~"

Standing at the edge of the arena, Feng Yuan shouted loudly, having no intention of participating himself as it was meaningless. Xiao Ji flapped its wings excitedly, looking at the White Wolf Deity. It was ready to use Domain Awakening. This time, it wanted to show the White Wolf Deity that it was no longer the weak Xiao Ji it used to be!

The Fluffy Fire Wolfhound wasn’t as optimistic as Xiao Ji. For some reason, it sensed a "conspiracy". It didn’t believe Feng Yuan would be that straightforward; the opponent might secretly do something.

As the start signal sounded, Xiao Ji was about to unfold the Underworld Domain when it saw a ripple swiftly spreading from the White Wolf Deity’s feet. Holy white pillars of light shot up from the ground, and crystalline fragments drifted down gently. The Underworld Domain Xiao Ji had prepared to unfold completely failed to react.

Nearby students who couldn’t help but come over to watch were stunned by the scene. As several beams of light burst from the ground and retracted gradually, they could sense significant changes in that area.

Could it be that the White Wolf Deity had completed the Crystal Domain deployment and Domain Awakening in an instant?

They speculated this mainly because the suppression of that domain was strong, and Xiao Ji and the others were entirely unable to deploy their Crystal Domain, which wasn’t logical.

Planning to use the Crystal Domain to gain an advantage, Xiao Ji didn’t expect this setback. With a flick of its wings, Xiao Ji quickly flew toward the sky, but as it was about to leave the domain’s range, the surrounding time-space distorted. No matter how hard Xiao Ji tried, it couldn’t escape the White Wolf Deity’s Crystal Domain.

Feng Yuan didn’t offer any reminders since the White Wolf Deity’s exclusive Divine Beast Crystal Domain possessed unique self-awakening abilities.

Unless the White Wolf Deity suppressed itself, once it deployed the Snow of Time Domain, the awakening would automatically activate. Meaning, once the White Wolf Deity deployed the Snow of Time Crystal Domain, others couldn’t overlay it by deploying other Crystal Domains.

Initially, Xiao Ji and the Fluffy Fire Wolfhound’s strength were far inferior to the White Wolf Deity’s. Now, suppressed by the White Wolf Deity, they quickly fell into a disadvantage.

Seeing it couldn’t create distance, Xiao Ji ceased further attempts and fiercely charged at the White Wolf Deity.

The Netherworld Wind blew. Xiao Ji knew its ultimate move would struggle to directly break through the White Wolf Deity’s defenses, but that didn’t mean it couldn’t find an opportunity.

Simultaneously, Xiao Ji was probing. It hadn’t forgotten that Agunas’ domain could restrict the effectiveness of ultimate moves, and it was uncertain if the White Wolf Deity’s domain had the same effect.

The Fluffy Fire Wolfhound, unlike Xiao Ji, didn’t overthink. Unable to win, it used whatever ultimate move came naturally. Although the Fluffy Fire Wolfhound’s size wasn’t small, allowing Feng Yuan to barely use it as a mount, standing with the White Wolf Deity made it seem like a little baby.

But even so, the Fluffy Fire Wolfhound didn’t retreat. With a sudden pounce, it used Fiery Fang trying to bite the White Wolf Deity fiercely.

A paw strike sent a stream of air swirling with countless crystalline fragments, blocking the Fluffy Fire Wolfhound. Before it could change tactics, crystallized pillars formed and directly knocked the Fluffy Fire Wolfhound flying.

The Netherworld Wind was completely ignored by the White Wolf Deity. This ultimate move had low damage inherently, and more so when used by Xiao Ji with Good Level strength. Even for a Death Series Divine Beast, it was difficult to use such a low-damage ultimate move to affect the White Wolf Deity.

"Indeed, a confusing domain effect."

Feng Yuan watched Xiao Ji’s probing and shook his head helplessly. The Snow of Time domain’s effect was rather unique; it doesn’t immediately produce an effect but accumulates Snow of Time as the ultimate moves are used. Regardless of which Spirit Beast’s ultimate move is used, the effect of accumulated Snow of Time remains the same.

If Xiao Ji kept using cautious ultimate moves now, once Snow of Time accumulates to the snowstorm state, it would be in big trouble.

Considering this, Feng Yuan decided not to warn it. Though the power of Snow of Time isn’t small, as long as it can be controlled by the White Wolf Deity, there’s no real concern of incidents occurring.

With Xiao Ji and the Fluffy Fire Wolfhound using one ultimate move after another, the floating crystalline fragments grew increasingly abundant. Noticing this, Xiao Ji felt a sense of unease. Turning to Feng Yuan, who merely gave a reassuring glance, Xiao Ji steeled itself and began to activate the Crimson Judgement.

Although Feng Yuan typically didn’t allow Xiao Ji to use this Divine Beast Technique, facing the White Wolf Deity this time, using this card should be fine?

Unfortunately, just this one ultimate move happened to complete Snow of Time’s accumulation.

The drifting crystalline fragments suddenly paused, and the next moment, they turned into sharp weapons as Snow of Time: Storm appeared, akin to dancing snowflakes.

Snow of Time: Storm, the exclusive attack effect of the Snow of Time domain, can bypass almost all defensive methods to deal real damage to enemies within the domain. Furthermore, because it has a Time Attribute, even dodging is challenging.

Of course, the Snow of Time domain lacks strong auxiliary effects for this reason. After all, the domain only has the ability to trap others upon deployment to barely assist teammates, with the rest relying solely on the attacks generated by Snow of Time.

With a swipe, the White Wolf Deity sent the Fluffy Fire Wolfhound, who lost combat abilities due to Snow of Time: Storm into the domain’s range. Although Xiao Ji struggled to endure, Snow of Time: Storm not only deals real damage but also absorbs an equivalent amount of Energy with each hit.

Therefore, even though Xiao Ji endured a bit longer, it was similarly sent out by the White Wolf Deity.

After Xiao Ji’s defeat, Snow of Time: Storm began to dissipate, and the Snow of Time domain gradually vanished due to the expiration of its duration.

Watching the disappearing Snow of Time domain, Xiao Ji let out an indignant cry. In its eyes, had Snow of Time: Storm appeared a little later, it might have had a chance to harm the White Wolf Deity.

Unfortunately, Xiao Ji was entirely unaware of the effects of the Snow of Time domain, thus not knowing it was impossible for the White Wolf Deity. Even without Xiao Ji using ultimate moves, the White Wolf Deity could still use ultimate moves to accumulate Snow of Time.

Cradling Xiao Ji, Feng Yuan chuckled and explained the mistakes it made and conducted a post-battle analysis. Meanwhile, other students watched the White Wolf Deity with awe and envy, feeling only one thing in their hearts: Divine Beasts are unbelievably strong.
