Beast Taming Star Journey

A dark shadow swept through the air, and I instinctively leaped backward, barely dodging the attack. Looking closer, I saw it was a poisoned dart! Who was it? I cautiously scanned my surroundings. The crowd stirred, but no one stepped forward to confess.

"Despicable!" A crisp voice rang out, followed by a fiery red figure that swept past and landed steadily in front of me. It was Su Yao! With a flick of her longsword, she knocked another flying projectile to the ground.

"Is this all the skill you have to embarrass yourself?" Her eyes blazed as she scanned the crowd, trying to pinpoint the thrower of the hidden weapon. I didn't have time to think further; Xiao Jin was injured and in danger.

I quickly ran to Xiao Jin's side and checked its injuries. Fortunately, it had only been scratched by the tiger's claws and was otherwise unharmed.

I took out some healing medicine from my pocket and gently applied it to Xiao Jin's wound.

"Ignore these clowns, let's finish this quickly!" Su Yao's voice rang out again, her body engulfed in raging flames, like a war god, her aura imposing.

I nodded, stood up, and looked firmly at the lithium faction leader. "Continue!" the lithium faction leader snorted coldly, commanding the tiger to pounce on me again.

This time, I won't give it any more chances! I share power with Little Gold, feeling its agile speed and powerful explosive force.

I felt like a cheetah, darting across the battlefield, directing Xiao Jin to dodge the tiger's attacks and waiting for an opportunity to counterattack.

Little Gold was incredibly fast; the tiger couldn't catch a glimpse of it at all.

It appeared sometimes on the tiger's left side, sometimes on its right, its sharp claws constantly leaving wounds on the tiger's body.

The tiger's roar grew weaker and weaker, its body was covered in wounds, and its movements became sluggish.

The surrounding crowd erupted in gasps of amazement; they had never witnessed such a spectacular beast-taming battle.

The leader of the lithium faction looked increasingly grim; he hadn't expected me to be able to use beast taming so skillfully.

"Damn it! Who the hell is this kid?" he growled through gritted teeth. I ignored his roar and continued to command Little Gold to attack.

The scales of victory had tipped in my favor; I only needed to exert a little more effort to completely defeat the tiger. Just then, I sensed an unusual energy fluctuation.

I looked up abruptly and saw the strategist standing in the crowd, holding a strange instrument and muttering incantations. Oh no! He's trying to interfere with my beast taming!

My heart skipped a beat, and I was about to warn Xiao Jin to be careful when I noticed that Xiao Jin's movements suddenly slowed down, and his eyes became unfocused, as if he were being controlled by something... The strategist smiled coldly and slowly said, "This is just the beginning..."

Xiao Jin's movements became increasingly sluggish, her eyes glazed over, and she was almost out of control.

I was burning with anxiety, desperately trying to contact Xiao Jin, but it felt like there was a thick barrier between us. Damn it! That strategist's scheme was truly brilliant!

Upon seeing this, the leader of the lithium faction laughed triumphantly: "Boy, your beast-taming tactics are indeed impressive, but alas, you're still too green! Beryllium strategist, finish him off!"

The strategist gave a sinister smile, the light from the instrument in his hand intensifying, and Xiao Jin's struggles grew weaker and weaker. I gritted my teeth, fine beads of sweat forming on my forehead. Should I just give up like this?

No, I will never admit defeat! At that critical moment, a fiery red figure flashed across the battlefield like lightning, instantly shielding me behind her. It was Su Yao!

The longsword in her hand burned with raging flames, like a fire dragon, heading straight for the strategist. "Your opponent is me!" Su Yao's voice boomed like thunder, shaking the entire scene.

The strategist's expression changed, clearly not expecting Su Yao to suddenly make a move. He hurriedly withdrew the device controlling Xiao Jin and turned to deal with Su Yao's attack.

Su Yao's swordsmanship was incredibly fierce, each move carrying the power to scorch the heavens, forcing the strategist to retreat steadily. Seeing her valiant figure, a warm feeling welled up in my heart.

With her there, what do I have to be afraid of? I took a deep breath and forced myself to calm down.

Now is not the time for sentimentality; I must find a way to break through the strategist's scheme in order to turn the tide of the war.

I carefully observed the tools in the strategist's hands and Xiao Jin's reaction, trying to find a connection. Suddenly, a thought flashed through my mind, and I realized a possibility.

"Su Yao, attack his weapon!" I shouted. Su Yao understood immediately, and with a swift movement, she pointed her sword at the weapon in the strategist's hand.

The strategist was terrified and tried his best to protect the artifact, but Su Yao's attack was too fast and too fierce for him to withstand. With a "crack," the artifact shattered.

At the same time, Xiao Jin's eyes regained their clarity, and it was back under my control. "Awoo!" Xiao Jin roared and pounced on the tiger.

Without the strategist's control, Tiger was no match for Little Gold. After a few rounds, Tiger was completely defeated by Little Gold and lay on the ground, barely alive.

The lithium leader's face was ashen; he knew the situation was hopeless and could only reluctantly lead his remaining troops to retreat from the battlefield. I looked at Su Yao, my heart filled with gratitude.

If she hadn't intervened in time, the consequences would have been unimaginable. "Thank you, Su Yao," I said sincerely.

Su Yao smiled slightly and said, "We are partners, it is only right that we help each other." Although the lithium forces' attack was repelled, this was only a temporary victory.

I knew the lithium industry wouldn't give up; they would definitely make a comeback. I looked into the distance, pondering to myself.

With just my and Su Yao's strength, I'm afraid it will be difficult to completely resolve the conflict... Beast Tamer... perhaps... "Su Yao, let's go to Sunset City."
