Unlike others, Bai Qi’s eyes lit up when he saw Shi Yong summon the Braced Frog.

He had just been fretting about not having a training ground, and here was a ready-made toil sent to his doorstep.

Only half an hour though, which was a bit annoying.

“Any issues? If not, let’s start the competition.”

The referee asked for both their inputs and once confirmed there were no issues, he announced the start of the match.

As soon as it started, Shi Yong undid his cloak, assuming the poise of a muscular man, showing off his robust muscles unreservedly to everyone present.

“Kid, you’re too weak, you can’t survive in the wild with such a physique. Join our Haoli Dojo now, I guarantee you and your pet beast can possess sturdy muscles!”

“Braced Frog, demonstrate your power!”

Crackle Crackle.

(Master, what are they up to?)

Watching the strange duo in front of him, Alpha – whose wisdom had just awakened two days ago – felt somewhat confused.

“Never mind, just protect your head later on, anything else, feel free to kick.”

Building strong muscles on a skeletal Alpha, perhaps this guy’s brain was flooded with muscles.

Crackle Crackle.

“Yes, master.”

Upon receiving Bai Qi’s command, Alpha decided to give up resisting. He simply stood still at his spot. The sight of Alpha’s actions drew sighs from the audience.

“This guy, he actually has such a low-level undead creature as his contractor, another foolish kid brainwashed by the star effect.”

“Exactly. Didn’t you notice that he painted his skeleton? That’s the trend.”

“I mean, he meets a fighter, isn’t this a masochist commitment?”

“Tsk tsk… The young these days, they are impulsive.”

“True… Big brother, how old are you this year?”

“28.”

“…”

The two fighters, engaged in a duel, were not aware of the surrounding discussions. Shi Yong, after posing and seeing that Bai Qi was not making the first move, decided not to drag this out any longer and commanded the Braced Frog.

“Braced Frog, use Blast Punch!”

Croak!

The Braced Frog uttered a low croak, its equally muscular legs stomped heavily, immediately reaching Alpha. Its four massive fists hit Alpha simultaneously, breaking Alpha’s slender body as if it was struck by a bomb, leaving only the skull intact.

The weak spot of the skeleton beastmaster is typically the head, which houses the Fire of Soul. As it was an ordinary fight, Shi Yong seemed careful not to go overboard.

However, this opponent was too weak to display the strength of their Haoli Dojo!

Equally disappointed was the Brawny Frog. Looking at the opponent who couldn’t even withstand one blow, the Braced Frog decisively turned to leave.

“Referee, announce the results.”

Shi Yong walked towards the referee, intending to change opponents, but the referee rejected his request.

“I’m sorry, the match isn’t over yet. Return to your positions please.”

Shi Yong, confused at hearing this, followed the referee’s gaze towards Alpha.

Alpha, who was originally shattered, had somehow regenerated and was just standing there, as if nothing had happened.

This guy, he recovers so quick!

It was well-known that the Undead Department Beasts could regenerate from broken bones, but they usually did not recover so rapidly. He had never seen any recover as fast as Alpha.

“Great, this will highlight the strength of our Haoli Dojo!”

Alpha’s resilience clearly exceeded Shi Yong’s expectations, but it also conveniently suited his intentions, so he launched another attack with the Braced Frog.

This time, Braced Frog used a Double Kick, completely shattering Alpha with consecutive powerful kicks until there was hardly a piece of whole skeleton left.

But Alpha quickly recovered, and Shi Yong didn’t intend to stop the Braced Frog. The fiercely attacking arms never ceased, and Alpha repeatedly went through the process of being shattered and reassembled.

Half an hour later.

“Cough, cough. I declare that this match ends in a tie.”

The referee looked sympathetically at the panting Braced Frog and the still clueless Alpha before announcing the result of the match.

With his discerning eye, it was clear to him that Shi Yong’s Braced Frog was extremely well-trained, possessing impressive skills and base attributes.

It’s just unfortunate for the Braced Frog to encounter such an opponent with an abnormal rate of recovery.

“That’s it?”

Bai Qi looked at Alpha, whose skeleton had clearly become much sturdier, smacked his lips feeling a bit unsatisfied.

He had finally found a free labor source, and it ended so quickly. The Beast Master Association’s battle time was absolutely unreasonable.

They should have fought for a few hours.

Seeing Bai Qi’s status, Shi Yong felt something was off instinctively. But he couldn’t worry about it at the moment and shouted, “I request an overtime match! Add another hour!”

“There’s overtime?”

Bai Qi’s eyes lit up, showing a renewed interest.

The referee nodded and said, “Yes, but the cost of overtime is 1000 Federal Coins. Are you both splitting it?”

They charge for overtime?

Bai Qi was somewhat hesitant. The money he earned yesterday was mostly spent on nutrient solution, leaving him with only 1500 Federal Coins. Signing up for the battle cost him 200, and overtime would cost 1000. This was exceeding his budget.

With this amount of money, he’d rather buy a couple more bottles of nutrient solution instead of playing overtime.

“No problem, I’ll cover the cost. But you must fight a good one with me!”

Seeing Bai Qi hesitating, Shi Yong generously decided to cover the cost himself.

“You’re on? Then let’s begin.”

Upon hearing that someone was going to cover the cost, Bai Qi agreed immediately. Alpha, who had been standing there foolishly, also adjusted its pose and entered combat mode.

Although it was his master’s order, which was beneficial to Alpha as well, being hit for half an hour had pissed off Alpha a bit.

Clatter clatter.

(Master, can I attack?)

Bai Qi nodded and said, “Well, since he’s stayed with us for so long, let’s give him a good fight.”

Clatter clatter.

(Understood.)

Alpha assumed a combat stance, and the Braced Frog was also brimming with fighting spirit. However, this time, it did not recklessly use skills like before, but adopted a stance that somewhat resembled the warriors on TV.

“Don’t tell me you think our Haoli Dojo can only use martial arts. You underestimate our master, the Thunder Hand!”

“Braced Frog, attack with full power!”

Ribbit!

The Braced Frog let out a furious cry, and its four arms, transformed into streaks of lightning, hastened towards Alpha.

However, the moment Braced Frog launched its attack, Alpha disappeared from its original spot. Before Braced Frog could locate its target, it felt a sharp pain in its kidney area. Barely managing to twist around and check, Braced Frog saw two blades stabbed into its lower back, with the handles, being held by Alpha.

This guy, lacking martial virtue, dared to ambush!

And, he attacked the kidney!
