In the battle of the semi-finals, if one was not careful, they would fall into danger.
At this moment, the Feathered Spirit Snake that had already taken root had its condition raised.
The entire snake seemed to have fused with the terrain. Just from its aura, one could feel an incomparable power.
This time, even without commentating,
just from its aura, the audience could tell that the little bug was in a very difficult spot.
Although it had lost the Grass Rope, in exchange, its condition had greatly improved.
Now, it was probably very difficult to defeat the Feathered Spirit Snake.
Moreover, the Feathered Spirit Snake could multitask. Once it unleashed two soul skills at the same time, it would be even more difficult to deal with.
From the two trump cards that Lin Xi had revealed, Wang Che had to admit that they were indeed not bad.
The special training that semester was very effective.
Perhaps there was even an expert guiding her.
Otherwise, it would be very difficult for the Feathered Spirit Snake to lean such profound combat techniques at this stage.
Lin Xi clenched her fists slightly.
The next moment, the Feathered Spirit Snake attacked!
It was like a green flash as it charged at the green caterpillar.
It was unbelievably fast!
‘The Feathered Spirit Snake was a soul pet that was very good at speed.
Especially since it was an extremely rare soul pet from the beginning, the innate growth attribute was very high. Every year, the increase in soul power cultivation was much stronger than rare soul pets.
Extremely rare potential from birth meant that it had a strong innate foundation in all aspects.
‘The greater the difference in soul power cultivation, the greater the disparity behind.
The current Feathered Spirit Snake’s speed could definitely be said to be the fastest in the entire Aviation Cup!
Especially after using Ingrain and absorbing the grass-type life force on the ground, not only was it more resistant to attacks, but its overall strength had also increased visibly!
A faint sonic boom sounded in the air.
This was the manifestation of the Feathered Spirit Snake’s extreme speed.
Just the speed at which it moved was so exaggerated that no soul pet could react.
“What speed!” The middle commentator couldn’t help but say, “At this speed, I’m afraid no soul pet can deal with it…”
On the grassland terrain, the Feathered Spirit Snake was flying at a low altitude. With a flash, a grass wave was separated from the grass green sea.
“Insect Concealment.” Wang Che said.
‘The green caterpillar did not hesitate to activate Insect Concealment. Its entire body instantly turned into grass-like colors and patterns.
Its size also changed slightly, instantly disappearing from the grassland terrain.
‘The Feathered Spirit Snake’s charge paused. It was slightly stunned to suddenly lose its target.
“Insect Concealment! The bug-type’s signature soul skill! It can hide itself in many terrain and quietly accumulate strength. Next, it can unleash a powerful attack! This is the second bug-type soul skill the green caterpillar used!”
“But this move…”
‘The middle-aged commentator was about to sigh.
It was completely countered by the Feathered Spirit Snake!
‘The Feathered Spirit Snake had already taken root with the grass terrain. It was extremely clear about the movements of the grass and trees.
It was not difficult to sense where the green caterpillar was.
‘The Feathered Spirit Snake stopped.
‘Without Lin Xi’s comman6, it closed its eyes and the light in its body began to scatter.
It seemed to be emitting a special fluctuation.
Aura Perception!
This was a move that many soul pets had used before!
It could sense the location of the enemy in the complicated terrain.
It had a certain restraining effect on insects that entered the Insect Concealment state.
Especially now that it had finished taking root, the Feathered Spirit Snake’s reaction to the entire grass terrain was greatly enhanced!
“Once this move is used, the green caterpillar should be quickly discovered.”
The middle-aged commentator looked at the grass terrain.
With his vision, he did not discover the green caterpillar’s location.
However, after a while, when the Feathered Spirit Snake opened its eyes, it was a little confused.
‘Where was the bug?
It could not sense it?
When Lin Xi learned of the situation, she was also a little confused.
This did not make sense. With Aura Perception and Ingrain, the Feathered Spirit Snake had already reached a very strong state of control over the grass and trees.
Although the Insect Concealment was very powerful and had an additional effect on hiding in the grass and trees, it was impossible to not sense any aura at all!
At this moment, the middle-aged commentator could tell something strange was going on.
This Insect Concealment was not normal!
Unable to sense it, it lost its target.
This made the Feathered Spirit Snake, who was in an excited state, feel a little unhappy.
However, at this moment, when the Feathered Spirit Snake was sensing its aura
A figure suddenly jumped out of the terrain and unleashed a Rumbling Tail Strike at the Feathered Spirit Snake!
The Feathered Spirit Snake was shocked, but it was too late to react.
The other party attacked almost directly at close range!
However, the Feather Spirit Snake’s outstanding combat strength was displayed at this moment.
The small wings by its ears flapped slightly. When it could not use a soul skill to resist, it relied on its advantage of flying at a low altitude.
It flew into the air.
The green caterpillar missed with a Rumbling Tail Strike.
“Now!” Wang Che immediately said.
Hearing the order, the green caterpillar seemed to have been prepared. The moment the tail strike missed, it turned around and spat silk, accurately wrapping around the Flying Feathered Spirit Snake!
The flick of its head was very natural and unrestrained.
‘The Feathered Spirit Snake dodged the Rumbling Tail Strike and had just taken off when it flew less than ten to twenty meters.
A thread wrapped around the Feathered Spirit Snake.
“It’s here again, the attack prediction! The Feathered Spirit Snake’s dodge was completely predicted!”
‘The middle-aged commentator’s eyes lit up, “The Feathered Spirit Snake was unable to sense the Insect Concealment and lost the initiative. Its outstanding combat quality allowed it to avoid the Rumbling Tail Strike after the green caterpillar appeared. Unfortunately, its dodging was predicted!”
“This scene looks similar!”
“The Flame Sparrow and the Mountain Bamboo Bear are both like this. They were attacked by the prediction and were bound by the threads in the air.”
“Contestant Wang Che seems to always be able to predict the enemy’s movements.”
“The Feathered Spirit Snake wrapped in Spit Thread is in danger! The Raging Flame Strike has appeared! This is a fatal move against a grass-type soul skill!”
“It still bit the thread. This time, it directly used the Raging Flame Strike and was hit by the Feathered Spirit Snake!”
“With the help of Insect Concealment, this set of attacks is simply as smooth as flowing water!”
The middle commentator could not help but cheer.
Insect Concealment was indeed worthy of being a bug-type soul skill!
Asa prerequisite, as long as it was used appropriately, it could heavily injure the enemy.
However, the green caterpillar’s Insect Concealment seemed to be different.
The Feathered Spirit Snake could not sense it at all!
The green caterpillar launched a Raging Flame Strike and crashed into the Feathered Spirit Snake that was flying low.
‘The extremely high temperature and the violent collision sent the Feathered Spirit Snake flying. It landed on the grass, creating a visible ravine!
Against an opponent at a disadvantage, he actually had the upper hand in the first round!
At the special guest area.
“Something is wrong. The Feathered Spirit Snake’s cultivation is higher than the green caterpillar, and it has used both Ingrain and Aura Perception. How could it not sense the green caterpillar?”
West Peak Academy’s Principal Zhou’s eyes widened as he watched, “The Insect Concealment in my memory can’t do this even at maximum proficiency. Only the advanced thousand-year soul skill, Insect Camouflage, has such an effect. Even its aura has completely disappeared. Without mental strength,
it can’t be sensed at all.”
The higher the proficiency of Insect Concealment, the more it could be used in various terrain.
“Do any of you have bug-type soul pets?” Zhao He looked at the others, “Tell me what’s going on.”
“I do.” He Huan slowly said, “It should be an improved Insect Concealment. It’s hard to say how it was improved. However, even its aura has completely disappeared… The effect of this Insect Concealment is very strong… I guess that unless you use your mental strength to sense it, otherwise…”
“Improved? The Insect Concealment from a soul skill secret carving can be improved after learning it?”
Everyone was slightly stunned.
“It might not be learned from the soul skill secret carving, but this Insect Concealment is indeed very different from the true Insect Concealment.”
‘There were naturally differences.
This move was the Insect Concealment that Wang Che had learned on his own through the principle of the Martial Soul Armament changing color.
The operation method was completely different from normal Insect Concealment.
‘When he fought the 2,000-year-old Rain Demon Butterfly, the other party could not sense it even with a higher cultivation level.
The Ghost Disciple had used his mental strength to sense it.
It was only strange if the Feathered Spirit Snake could do it.
With this move, the green caterpillar had the initiative in this battle.
Especially among the grass and trees, the effects of Insect Concealment were even stronger!
At this moment, the Feathered Spirit Snake that was sent flying by the Raging Flame Strike was burning with flames everywhere.
The fire attribute was too powerful against the grass attribute.
Lin Xi’s expression did not change, as if she had expected this.
‘The Feathered Spirit Snake that landed on the ground let out a cry as its skin gradually changed.
The flames on its body quickly disappeared.
Immediately after, as light gathered in the terrain, the injuries on the Feathered Spirit Snake immediately healed!
“I’s Natural Skin!” The middle commentator immediately said, “Natural Skin is a unique grass-type soul skill that can effectively reduce the power of fire-type soul skills! It’s also the signature soul skill of the Feathered Spirit Snake’s species! Under this kind of skin, fire-type soul skills are no longer
super effective! They only have normal power!”
“At the same time, because it took root and absorbed the grass life force in the ground, the Feathered Spirit Snake’s state quickly recovered!”
“This move that should have been fatal… actually did not have much effect!”
The power of Ingrain manifested.
As long as it was not insta-killed, it could use the advantage of this huge terrain to quickly recover!
“This Ingrain move is not bad.”
On the stage, Wang Che smiled.
He used Insect Concealment and seized the opportunity to attack the other party. He did not expect it to be useless.
Indeed, it was difficult to defeat the Feathered Spirit Snake.
However, it was not impossible.
If he used Insect Concealment, it would be difficult to grasp such a good opportunity.
“Activate the Martial Soul Armament! Attack directly!” Wang Che narrowed his eyes and instructed.
The green caterpillar’s entire body immediately turned black.
“I was waiting for you to attack.” Lin Xi directly ordered, “Feathered Spirit Snake, attack too! You lost to this Martial Soul Armament last time! This time, it won’t happen again!”
The Feathered Spirit Snake also let out an excited cry.
In the last Enlightenment Cup, it lost to this move.
This time, it was going to get revenge!
This made the Feathered Spirit Snake feel like it was a destined fight!
Powerful soul pets had to stand up where they were defeated!
The Feathered Spirit Snake rushed out!
It transformed into a green stream of light again!
On the other side, the green caterpillar that had activated the Martial Soul Armament had already reached the standard perfect strength state.
However, at this moment, its speed was still inferior to the Feathered Spirit Snake!
Far inferior!
The two collided.
Boom!
Ina huge collision of strength, the Feathered Spirit Snake, which had the advantage in speed, could use the Rumbling Tail Strike one step at a time. It was not at a disadvantage in this aspect!
‘The two were sent flying.
The Feathered Spirit Snake used its small wings to roll in the air, reducing the force.
On the contrary, the green caterpillar on the other side was sent flying, but it also used its Spit Thread to stabilize itself.
“Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!”
The Feathered Spirit Snake let out an excited cry!
It won!
‘With the help of Ingrain, powerful innate aptitude, and painstaking cultivation!
It finally defeated the blackened green caterpillar!
It had finally vented its anger after being crushed in the Enlightenment Cup!
The Feathered Spirit Snake entered an excited state. It was extraordinarily proud!
Lin Xi was also a little excited for the Feathered Spirit Snake.
It was true. The last time this little guy had lost to the green caterpillar in the Enlightenment Cup, especially after its speed and strength had been crushed by a green caterpillar, the impact was extraordinary.
Extremely rare soul pets innately had extraordinary intelligence.
‘The Feathered Spirit Snake knew what level it was at and what level the green caterpillar was at.
If it were any other extremely rare soul pet, it might not be able to recover from such a crushing defeat.
However, the Cloud Cap Snake was not discouraged. During the special training, it trained hard so that it could defeat the green caterpillar one day!
Only Lin Xi knew that the process was very difficult.
It would only stop when it was exhausted from training.
This hard work directly allowed the Cloud Cap Snake to evolve to the Feathered Spirit Snake 200 years earlier.
An ordinary Cloud Cap Snake required a thousand years of soul power cultivation to evolve.
Evolution in advance and the increase in aptitude meant a huge increase in strength. The soul power cultivation after every year increase was stronger than when it was at the extremely rare stage.
With outstanding aptitude, painstaking training, and the enhancement from the Ingrain soul skill, the current Feathered Spirit Snake was reborn!
Thinking of this, Lin Xi’s mood surged.
It was clearly just a green caterpillar.
“Suppressed! The Feathered Spirit Snake and the green caterpillar chose to clash head-on! But the green caterpillar was suppressed! This is the first time the green caterpillar has been suppressed after using the Martial Soul Armament and entering the pitch-black state! Last time, it was only slightly
inferior to the Mountain Bamboo Bear!”
“This time, it was completely suppressed by the Feathered Spirit Snake! The power of the Ingrain soul skill completely offset the enhancement of the green caterpillar’s pitch-black form!” The middle-aged commentator immediately said.
After the match with the Mountain Bamboo Bear, the relevant staff came to ask about Martial Soul Armament.
Knowing that it was a self-created soul skill, it was given a high evaluation. Then, the officials immediately identified the green caterpillar’s Martial Soul Armament. According to its effect, strength, cultivation age, duration, and so on, it was evaluated.
After confirming that there were no identical soul skills in the world, they immediately registered the patent.
The process was very fast.
With the patent registration, if Wang Che was willing, he could hire a secret carving expert to create a soul skill secret carving and sell it.
Of course, the difficulty of creating a soul skill secret carving was rather high. It concerned the soul pet’s genes.
‘Wang Che did not intend to sell it for the time being.
Therefore, the middle-aged commentator now knew the name of this move.
Otherwise, as a commentator, if he could not say the name of the soul skill, his professionalism would be doubted.
The following battle was as the commentator had said.
It was a head-on collision!
‘The green caterpillar frantically used Rumbling Tail Strike and Spit Thread to clash with the Feathered Spirit Snake!
One black and one green, they interweaved like two lights.
Every collision erupted with a violent fluctuation, sending grass blades flying everywhere.
From the east to the west!
From the south to the north!
‘The grass and trees were huge, but there were traces of battle in every corner.
The more it fought, the more excited the Feathered Spirit Snake became.
It knew that victory was not far away.
