Chapter 310 — Team Rankings Revealed
The Beast-Taming Craftsman Page 5 of 5
If they had continued, perhaps a winner could have been decided, but Shi Qi was tired and directly called a halt...
...
The next night, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse.
With the intra-team tournament completely over, every beast felt a measure of discontent.
Intra-team ranking: Shiyi, Chongchong/Ginseng Baby, Chitong, Susu.
Even Shiyi, who took first, felt a little regret, because it felt its victory was not honorable. Chongchong and Ginseng Baby were tied for second; if it could have smashed Ginseng Baby head-on the way it had beaten Chongchong, that would have been perfect.
It was also fortunate that no battlefield range had been set this time; otherwise, it and Chongchong would probably both have been smashed by Ginseng Baby.
As the beast in Shi Jin's team with the most well-rounded attributes and the most super-tier racial skills, Shiyi deserved first place. Its powerful physique, ample sustain, a legion defense skill no one could break, and metal and lightning both being powerful attack attributes—its allocation was nearly perfect.
Chongchong, relying on its understanding of every teammate, with the weakest racial attributes, plus powerful racial skills and tactical arrangements, defeated or drew against the other teammates.
Chongchong truly had it hard. If one did not count the boosts from active skills and simply divided vitality, energy value, and physique into the three dimensions of a beast's racial attributes, then Shiyi's three dimensions should be vitality (medium), energy value (medium), physique (extremely high).
Chitong and Susu's three dimensions were vitality (high), energy value (medium), physique (medium).
Ginseng Baby's three dimensions were vitality (extremely high), energy value (extremely high), physique (extremely low).
As for Chongchong's three dimensions, they were vitality (extremely low), energy value (medium), physique (extremely low)—a tragedy in capital letters.
So it really was not easy for Chongchong to get this far. It owed much to the bizarre nature of the space attribute and to its space-type skills not having side effects as severe as Ginseng Baby's Time Accumulation-type skills.
Granted, if the battlefield had been restricted, it might not have been able to beat Ginseng Baby. But Chongchong had also not brought equipment. If it could carry one piece of level-eight or level-nine dragon-type resource, its improvement might not have been any less than that from the Time Accumulation Fruit. After all, as a high-tier skill, absent the emergence of mythical racial potential, the upper limit of the Time Accumulation Fruit's boost was to raise a beast's strength to Overlord level.
And Càn Bǎobǎo, who possessed the highest racial attributes, tied for second place — no surprise to Shí Cén.
Its attributes really were that strong.
Unfortunately, though, without any taught skills, it had no racial skill that counted as an attacking move besides Moon Blast — such was the price of exceptional racial attributes.
"A bunch of little monsters."
After the intra-team matches were over, Shí Xù led them down the mountain; next, it was time to go see how things stood for the national tournament.
The team's current strength — though it would still struggle in the world tournament, where only Monarch-level contenders even qualified and going would mean throwing their lives away — should be enough to slaughter the field at the national tournament, just like they had in the Baby Cup... One could say this intra-team match was a warm-up for the national tournament. Here's hoping everything goes smoothly!
