    Chapter 259 Strongest Battle Pet


    Zheng Yi stood up and took two steps toward Lu Yu.


    The stump on his right arm had already been bandaged.


    Losing a hand enraged him, and he had be much more haggard under the excruciating pain.


    “Lu Yu, you’re dead. I’m going to use my trump card.”


    Lu Yu was annoyed and said impatiently, “I don’t want to waste my time on you. The demi-humans you captured need me right now!”


    “You’re not wasting your time on me, but on my battle pet!”


    Zheng Yi raised his left hand and touched an exquisite ring on his middle finger with his thumb.


    Immediately after, the ring emitted a bright light, and arge silhouette appeared.


    The light faded, and a massive tiger appeared before Zheng Yi.


    “Your opponent will be my battle pet, the Underworld Tiger!”


    The tiger in front of Zheng Yi looked about the same size as an adult northern tiger. However, it didn’t have the usual golden strips.


    The Underworld Tiger’s fur was dark blue and emitted fluorescent light waves into the darkness.


    The moment the Underworld Tiger appeared, the surrounding beast tamers were excited.


    “Boss, you’re finally getting serious!”


    “The Underworld Tiger is going to win us the battle!”


    “We have a hope of winning this!”


    “Boss, our hope is all upon you!”


    Zheng Yi looked at everyone and said, “Don’t worry. You have all seen the strength of my Underworld Tiger, and it will be easy for it to get rid of Lu Yu.”


    Lu Yu sized up the tiger in front of him, but he didn’t see anything special.


    “Since you guys praise this tiger so much, I will give it a go then!”


    Lu Yu’s ws turned into Diamond Dragon ws as he approached the Underworld Tiger. He nned to end the battle quickly and not waste more time.


    The clock was ticking. If he could break into the warehouse one second earlier, he could save one more demi-human.


    All their lives were in Lu Yu’s hands.


    Lu Yu’s body was covered in ayer of a rectangr golden shield as he quickly jogged up to the Underworld Tiger.


    As he trod over, Lu Yu activated his Eye of the Dragon God and looked at the Underworld Tiger.


    [ Underworld Tiger (S-Level) ]


    [ Skills: Underworld Shadow, Corpse Ripping w, Underworld Explosion ]


    [ Underworld Shadow: Creates a doppelganger that has half of the attributes of the original ]


    [ Corpse Ripping w: Swings its w forward, causing AOE damage. At the same time, it prates 50% of the target’s armor, creating a tearing effect that reduces healing. Lasts for 5 seconds ]


    [ Underworld Explosion: Underworld Tiger self-destructs. At the cost of its life, it kills all living creatures within a three-meter radius ]


    [ Personal Attributes ]


    [ Attack: 420 ]


    [ Speed: 280 ]


    [ Health: 580 ]


    [ Mana: 200 ]


    [ Defense: 280 ]


    The Underworld Tiger’s stats seemed slightly inferior to Lu Yu’s. However, its skills were simply overpowering!


    If Lu Yu only looked at the tiger’s surface-level stats, he would win a fight against it.


    However, these three skills were each more potent than thest!


    Each of them gave Lu Yu a headache.


    The first, creating a clone, was self-exnatory. Although it only had half the stats of the original, it still posed a significant threat.


    The second skill was terrifying.


    Lu Yu’s Armor-piercing Water Spear only gave a 40% armor-piercing effect. Moreover, it was a single-target skill.


    This tiger’s Corpse Ripping w dealt AOE damage and gave such a ridiculous armor-piercing effect. It would destroy half of Lu Yu’s armor, which was much stronger than Lu Yu’s.


    Moreover, it would have a tearing effect on its targets, and any healing effect would be significantly reduced. It would be difficult for Lu Yu to continue fighting if this skill hit him.


    If Lu Yu were hit by the tiger’s Corpse Ripping w, his continuous battling ability would be greatly reduced.


    If Lu Yu could defeat the Underworld Tiger, its clone, and dodge all their w attacks, he still had onest move he needed to consider.


    Under Explosion. Self-destructs at the cost of one’s own life, killing all living creatures within a three-meter radius.


    This skill no longer looked at defense, health, or other factors.


    As long as one was a living being, one would be killed immediately. It was a one-hit KO move.


    Lu Yu gulped. It seemed that this tiger was a strong opponent and wouldn’t be easy to deal with.


    In some aspects, the Underworld Tiger was simr to Lu Yu. The strength of the two depended on their skills and talents, not their raw stats.


    Everyone held their breath as they looked at the man and the tiger. They knew that the uing battle would be one of the most exciting battles they would ever see. Therefore, everyone was dead silent.


    The Underworld Tiger lowered its body and stared straight at Lu Yu. It was already prowling, ready to attack.


    The next moment, with a swoosh, the Underworld Tiger charged out and arrived before Lu Yu instantly.


    This short and fast sprint made everyone nervous.


    The Underworld Tiger raised its robust tiger ws and smacked them onto Lu Yu’s shield.


    “This attack will connect! The battle might end faster than expected!”


    A beast tamer couldn’t help but blurt out. He knew the Underworld Tiger well and knew the effect the tiger’s ws had.


    Lu Yu used both hands to block the iing Underworld Tiger’s attack.


    The Underworld Tiger’s sharp ws quickly struck over, but they didn’t hit Lu Yu’s body. Instead, they mmed into the golden barrier in front of Lu Yu.


    Lu Yu could see that the Underworld Tiger had used its Corpse Ripping w skill. Its five ws were glowing faintly, drawing a bright arc as it wed down.


    Skrrr!!


    The Underworld Tiger’s ws scratched the golden barrier, creating sparks.


    Its ws were stopped, and the tips of its ws were embedded in the shield.


    This w attack dealt some damage but wasn’t enough to break the shield.


    Lu Yu’s golden barrier had a health bar of 1,000 points. The armor-piercing effect reduced the shield value by half, and after the Underworld Tiger’s 420 raw attack stats, Lu Yu’s golden barrier still had 80 points of health left.


    However, this little bit of shield was flickering. The golden barrier dimmed, looking like ayer of transparent film.


    After the Underworld Tigerunched its attack, Lu Yu immediately brandished his Diamond Dragon ws to retaliate.


    Lu Yu’s ws shed against the Underworld Tiger’s ws. After a loud thud, both sides were repelled at the same time.


    The Underworld Tiger took two steps back, and the huge force caused its ws to go numb. Moreover, the sharp tip of Lu Yu’s ws pierced through the tiger’s paw, and blood flowed out.


    “Roar!!”


    The Underworld Tiger roared, furious as it knew it was at a disadvantage in the first exchange.


    After roaring angrily, it quickly rushed up to Lu Yu!


    The Underworld Tiger did not allow Lu Yu to catch his breath, which made Lu Yu anxious. He had to think of a way to get rid of this tiger as soon as possible, as he couldn’t afford to drag this on any longer.


    Just as the Underworld Tiger approached Lu Yu, a shadow appeared beside it. It assumed a charging posture as it dashed toward Lu Yu.
