Beast Taming Patrol Chapter 1477: 418: Guigui vs Youyou

Qiuqiu and Yingying retreated swiftly to the clearing's perimeter. Under the influence of Tata’s Recovery Song, they began to heal their wounds and replenish their spent energy, preparing themselves for the subsequent internal team matches following the duel between Guigui and Youyou.

As they crossed paths with Guigui heading toward the center of the arena, Yingying offered an encouraging nod and passed over the Hell World. Guigui gave a slight nod in return, signaling a firm commitment to give their absolute best in the upcoming fight.

While assisting the recovery of the previous combatants, Tata waved enthusiastically at Youyou, who was stepping onto the field, offering loud cheers of support.

“Mmm! (❁´◡`❁)” (I will!)

Youyou responded with a serious nod, their expression brimming with resolve and self-assurance.

Meanwhile, Qiuqiu appeared lost in thought.

Although they had secured victory in the last round using a secret technique from the Time Scripture, Yingying’s unconventional tactics had served as a wake-up call.

The Three Lives Illusion had been significantly disrupted when clashing against the Illusion and Reality Rules.

This was a variable Qiuqiu had failed to account for previously.

It was clear that this specific weakness required immediate attention and training.

Without addressing it, the inability to deploy their most potent core technique would be a crippling flaw in future battles.

Inside the arena, Guigui—now wielding the Hell World—squared off against Youyou, who had already transitioned into the War Spirit Form and gripped a formidable lance.

The lingering intensity from Qiuqiu and Yingying’s clash had sparked a similar competitive fire within them.

“Talent skills are prohibited for both participants!” Lin Su declared with a resounding voice.

At this proclamation, a faint shimmer passed over Guigui’s mask, and Youyou’s eyes ignited with a sharp light.

In the following breath, both spoke simultaneously.

“Hah! (｡ϟ｡)” (Fragrant Moment, Banishment Sword, Undying Golden Body, and War Intent!)

“Mmm! (⑅°ᴗ°⑅)” (Devouring of Nihility, Evil Mockery, Seven Sins of the Owl, and Witch Doll!)

As the echoes of their voices faded, both stood momentarily paralyzed.

Because they had spoken at the exact same time, they each heard the specific skills the other had chosen to seal away.

What kind of bans were these!

Youyou was completely stunned.

The True Phoenix Flame, infused with the Power of Shattering, served as their primary offensive output; as a core technique, it was immune to being banned.

Youyou had assumed that as long as that remained available, other restrictions wouldn't be a major issue.

However, Second Brother’s tactical choices were far too devious…

After Qiuqiu had acquired new Time-system teaching skills from the two Time Qilin Deer, the highly capable Youyou had also benefited, picking up Time Flow Buffer and Banishment Sword.

Now, with Fragrant Moment and Banishment Sword both restricted, it was a heavy blow.

War Intent, a martial arts talent skill providing comprehensive enhancements, was also gone—fine.

But how did Second Brother think to ban the Undying Golden Body!

Without Tata’s intervention, Youyou had yet to fully master the Shattering Rule and relied on the Undying Golden Body to withstand the physical backlash of unleashing the Power of Shattering at full tilt.

By banning the Undying Golden Body, Youyou’s ability to use the Shattering Rule was now strictly constrained.

This calculating strategic move was something Youyou had never anticipated.

Second Brother is so wicked!

Hmph!

On the opposite side, Guigui was also locked in deep contemplation.

They wondered when their Third Sister had become so crafty, as this specific set of bans gutted a large portion of their combat effectiveness.

The Seven Sins of the Owl was an obvious target; despite being Guigui’s companion, it functioned as a talent skill and was thus eligible for a ban.

After their journey through the Nether Soul Palace, the collective power of the seven was nearly on par with Guigui’s own. Losing the ability to summon them was a massive reduction in Guigui's total strength.

Furthermore, Devouring of Nihility, Evil Mockery, and Witch Doll represented the pinnacle of their Dark-element talent and teaching skills.

While all of Guigui’s Space-system talent skills were protected under the core technique Dimension Magic, they had also mastered the Power of the Death Rule.

With those three specific skills banned, the potency of the Death Rule was also severely diminished.

Damn it!

Guigui had thought they were clever using the Undying Golden Body to neutralize Third Sister’s Power of Shattering, but they hadn't expected the counter-strike to be just as ruthless!

Watching from the sidelines, Qiuqiu and Yingying traded knowing looks.

Impressive!

Both of them would have to face Youyou and Guigui eventually.

This exchange of skill bans had provided them with invaluable tactical data for their own future matches.

Lin Su, wearing a peculiar expression, shouted the start of the round: “Skill bans are finalized! The second round of the internal match begins now!”

The moment the words left his mouth, Guigui and Youyou snapped out of their thoughts.

In an instant, both unleashed their opening moves simultaneously!

As Lin Su’s voice trailed off, Youyou’s arm was already in motion, thrusting the lance forward.

Lance thrust!

Time-system energy erupted, propelling the strike to its absolute velocity limit.

It was faster than the speed of light, faster than a mere thought!

Talent skill: Instant Stab!

The force of the thrust left a kilometer-long residual image hanging in the air.

Youyou, who had been standing thousands of meters away, appeared instantly before Guigui. The lance tore into the empty air with ferocity, but it was suddenly halted, unable to move an inch further.

Dimension Magic sub-skill: Dimension Confinement!

The runes etched onto Guigui’s mask glowed faintly. They had clearly foreseen Youyou’s light-speed assault and reacted with perfect timing.

However, a moment later, the runes on the mask flickered and experienced a slight stutter.

A sudden spark ignited on the tip of the lance's blade.

A nearly invisible flame, shimmering with fifteen distinct colors, emerged. Even a mere wisp of it carried a catastrophic power that sent a chill through Guigui.

In the blink of an eye, the spatial confinement shattered under the pressure. Youyou’s lance surged forward, driving straight through... Guigui’s illusion.
