"A useless source beast like the Savage Fang Hound only has a beast attribute. Even if it mastered the use of the lightning element, it doesn't mean that it can withstand high-intensity electric shocks like other lightning source beasts."

Duncan explained with a cold smile. Looking at the dumb contestants around him, his eyes revealed a look of disdain. After explaining the crucial point of why the Savage Fang Hound was heavily injured, Duncan looked at Spender in the arena with a look of disapproval.

Due to Duncan's family background, the people around him all kept quiet. However, looking at the clenched fists of some people, it could be seen that these youths, who were still in their prime, were obviously embarrassed and angry at Duncan's words.

"This guy..." Lugh didn't act like the others. Instead, he narrowed his eyes and carefully sized up Duncan. He felt that although this guy was arrogant and vicious, his standards as a Beast Master were higher than many of the people present.

Just as Duncan had said, Lugh had just come to his senses not too long ago. He understood the 'foreshadowing' that Spender had prepared from the start, as well as the tactical decision he had made on the spot. 

Spender had wasted a large amount of his Horned Frogs' source energy to release a dense barrage of water bullets at the start, so that his opponent could think of a way to deal with his own water bullets.

After all, unless there was an absolute level suppression between source beasts, for a Savage Fang Hound that was evenly matched, the only way to deal with this dense barrage of water bullets was to use source skills.

This wasn't some sort of exchange of stamina strategy. Spender saw that Austin's Savage Fang Hound was stronger than his own Horned Frog, so he came up with a countermeasure.

According to the opponent's response to the water bullets, Spender could obtain the upper hand and some information about the Savage Fang Hound, and then use the information he had to formulate a method to deal with the enemy.

Up to this point, it was all part of Spender's plan. In fact, this wasn't a particularly brilliant strategy, it was just a test attack that threw out heavy bait. After all, the dense barrage of water bullets required a large amount of Horned Frogs' stamina.

Lugh had noticed this step from the start, but Spender's response was commendable.

When the Savage Fang Hound used Dodge to dodge the attack, and relied on lightning strike and Thunder Rush's fast attack to try and win the battle, Spender calmly used the information he had and ordered the Horned Frogs to make the best response.

The Horned Frogs used the water barrier not to protect themselves, but to lay the groundwork for heavily injuring the Savage Fang Hound. The final Bulging Belly Hardening was the key to reducing their losses. Don't think that it was easy... There was a great deal of attention paid to the timing of the skill's release and the techniques used to trick the Savage Fang Hound.

If you used the Bulging Belly Hardening first before using the water barrier, it would easily make the other party suspicious. Releasing the source skill too early or too late could directly result in failure. Therefore, the sequence and timing of the Horned Frog's source skills were very particular.

Just as Duncan had said, the Savage Fang Hound was a source beast species that only had beast attributes. The lightning attribute was nurtured by Beast Masters, and the attributes nurtured by Beast Masters were ultimately not as powerful as other source beasts with the innate lightning attribute. Although it would increase the Savage Fang Hound's lightning resistance, it would be of limited help in the end.

The Savage Fang Hound used a lightning-type attack, and the lightning directly passed through its water-soaked body. It was a very heavy blow to the Savage Fang Hound. If it wasn't for its body having some resistance to lightning... A single attack from the water-conducting electricity could cause the Savage Fang Hound to faint directly, or even go into shock.

As a result, the Savage Fang Hound suffered quite a bit of damage, while the Horned Frog relied on the hardening of its bulging belly to avoid the greatest damage. Currently, it was only slightly injured.

In their first exchange, Spender gained the upper hand.

This sort of response was a temporary tactical response that Spender had come up with in just a few seconds. It was enough to see that Spender's talent as a Beast Master was actually able to make Austin, who had always been scheming, suffer a loss.

...

After learning on the main stage that his son's damaged spiritual spark had been properly treated, Toran looked relieved. Next, he only needed to buy some medicine to repair his son's spiritual spark in a short period of time. Then, he would be able to repair his son's spiritual spark.

Toran, who had finally put down the burden in his heart, immediately felt much more relieved. When the people around him received the news that Dode was fine, they also comforted Toran, whose complexion had improved, to let him relax.

Toran was also very grateful for the concern of the others. He returned to his original forthright personality and waved his hand to indicate that he was fine.

The people on the stage temporarily put down his thoughts and focused their gazes on the competition.

"Eh? This Spender is not bad. When his source beast was weaker than his opponent, he actually managed to use a tactical response to successfully gain an advantage in the competition in an extremely short period of time."

Andy clearly noticed the battle between Austin and Spender. He could not help but exclaim in response to Spender's excellent response.

"Spender, he is the good son of our Lotus Village this year. He is a rare tactical genius in our village," Lilian said with a smile. Her pretty face revealed a hint of complacency. It was obvious that a genius had appeared in the village... As the village chief, she was very proud.

"The first source beast is a Horned Frog? Why did you choose this source beast to form a contract?" Shawn asked, puzzled.

Shawn knew Lilian's Lotus Village well. How could the first source beast of the good son of the village be a Horned Frog that often appeared in the menu? This was too hasty.

Even the families of ordinary farmers could squeeze out money to prepare a medium-grade civilian source beast for their children to be the first source beast to form a contract.
