Insect Concealment: In different terrain, it can change its color, confuse the opponent, and decrease the opponent’s perception. At the same time, it can accumulate strength and increase the power of the next non-attribute attack.
Insect Concealment was naturally not true invisibility.
Instead, it could change its skin color and reduce its soul power fluctuations to hide in many terrain.
While hiding, it could also accumulate strength. The next attack would be more powerful.
“Non-attribute attack can be a conventional strength attack like Rumbling Tail Strike…”
This move was very important to bug type soul pets.
An official soul pet battle would involve many changes in the terrain in the future.
Exploring in the wilderness would also encounter many complicated terrain.
Learning this move would bring great benefits to both the competition and the wilderness.
“This is it. I don’t lack offensive soul skills for the green caterpillar anymore. This kind of functional soul skill is perfect.”
There were many types of soul skills according to their effects.
But there were only two types in total: offensive and functional.
An offensive soul skill was divided into conventional strength attacks, unconventional attribute attacks, and complicated mixed attacks.
There were too many functional soul skills.
Supplementary types could be divided into strength, speed, physique, defense, attribute, and so on.
There were countless tactics like creating illusions, hiding, and changing the terrain.
The type of recovery also differed, like life recovery, physical recovery, soul power recovery, many other states of recovery, etc.
As for defense…
There were many soul skill types.
Wang Che knew that modern soul skills often had to juggle two or even three types of functions. Comprehensive soul skills were stronger and had higher requirements.
“To soul pets, even if they can’t learn all offensive soul skills, they still have to learn one or two functional soul skills.”
“After using the Insect Concealment, it will unleash a Rumbling Tail Strike. Even if the enemy’s soul power cultivation is higher, we can still deal a fatal blow. Unless it’s a soul pet with outstanding perception or a special perception type soul skill…”
After Wang Che confirmed it, he immediately checked the source of the Insect Concealment Soul Skill.
As an insect-type hundred-year core soul skill, many insects had their own soul skills.
However, it was still extremely precious.
Because of its extraordinary functionality, it was too important to bug type soul pets.
It was an extremely tactical soul skill.
“There’s basically no Insect Concealment soul skill secret carving on the Internet… This thing is indeed precious.”
Wang Che was not anxious.
It was far easier for the green caterpillar to learn Insect Concealment than soul skills like Raging Flame Strike, Energy Bomb, and Near Death Eruption.
After all, this was a soul skill of its own type.
It did not have this soul skill in its genes, but it was still an insect.
After a good night’s rest, Wang Che brought the green caterpillar to school.
Morning was always beautiful.
This was the case for the green caterpillar.
It was too dangerous outside. It could not sleep or eat well.
How could it compare to the small nest at home?
The green caterpillar carried Wang Che’s school bag and hummed as it arrived at the school’s entrance.
“Old Wang, I haven’t seen you for two days. Why does your green caterpillar look a little different?”
Xu Haifeng brought his Thousand-faced Flower and met Wang Che at the school gate.
“Hiss…” The green caterpillar curved its eyes and greeted the Thousand-faced Flower.
As it greeted the other party, it squirmed over.
The Thousand-faced Flower was the second stage evolution of the Hundred Flowers Beast.
The originally cute and tender Hundred Flowers Beast had grown feet, arms, and heads. Adorable buds had grown on its back, turning it into a Thousand-faced Flower.
As its cultivation slowly increased, these flower buds would slowly bloom, turning into many beautiful flowery clothes.
Its body would also reach a height of about a meter. The flowery clothes on its body would combine and grow into a Flower Fairy.
Its appearance would also reach a new height.
“Why hasn’t your Thousand-faced Flower completed its third stage evolution?” Wang Che glanced at it.
With a soul power cultivation of 140 years, the Hundred Flowers Beast could evolve into a Flower Fairy.
The Thousand-faced Flower’s cultivation was still lacking.
Xu Haifeng was from a decent family. He didn’t need to worry about food and drink. Buying a young rare soul pet wasn’t a problem at all.
However, this fellow only had eyes for the Hundred Flowers Beast, a young normal soul pet.
“I’m raising my soul pet slowly, there’s no hurry.” Xu Haifeng laughed, “My goal in the future is mainly to study beast pets and various beautiful soul pets. It doesn’t matter if they’re strong or not. As long as they look good.”
As he spoke, he stood beside the green caterpillar that was playing with the Thousand-faced Flower.
“Why, you even gave the green caterpillar a tattoo?” Xu Haifeng looked at the light green patterns on the green caterpillar and nodded as he looked at it, “Not bad, it looks okay. It looks quite cool. It’s quite handsome.”
Wang Che: “…”
Due to the Rainbow Deer King’s Life Supplement and the Energy Bomb soul skill he had taught it, some light green patterns had appeared on the green caterpillar’s body.
These patterns were the manifestation of grass-type life force gathering, and they were also the foundation of the soul skill, Energy Bomb.
It was different from the Raging Flame Strike.
After eating the Yang Crystal Milk Pine Leaf, the fire attribute life force absorbed would be digested slowly over a long period of time before being completely absorbed by the Metal Devouring Art.
This did not happen in this case.
The Rainbow Deer King fed the green caterpillar grass-type life force through the Life Origin Stone.
The green caterpillar could not forcefully absorb such a huge amount of grass-type life force, so the Rainbow Deer King could only lock the grass-type life force in the green caterpillar’s body in this form.
That was why there were light green patterns.
As it cultivated, these light green patterns would slowly disappear and completely integrate into the green caterpillar’s body.
“Next time, I’ll make one for the Thousand-faced Flower too.” Xu Haifeng glanced at the cool patterns and felt that it was very handsome.
“Huff! Huff!” When the Thousand-faced Flower heard this, it immediately let out a sound of rejection.
Different soul pets had different aesthetic tastes!
It did not think that it was handsome!
“Refusal denied!” Xu Haifeng held the back of his head and walked into the school.
The Thousand-faced Flower was a little angry. It came to Xu Haifeng and stopped at his feet.
Xu Haifeng fell to the ground.
The Thousand-faced Flower left in a huff.
“Hey, okay, okay… I’m not doing it. I’m not doing it.” Xu Haifeng got up and hurriedly walked up.
Wang Che: “…”
The green caterpillar looked at the Thousand-faced Flower enviously.
It had such a high status!
The green caterpillar glanced at Wang Che. Hmm… Could it also…
Coincidentally, Wang Che also turned around to look at it.
He smiled ‘kindly’.
The green caterpillar jumped in fright and immediately followed obediently.
The day of studying quickly began.
The strict Teacher Zheng checked the students’ progress every once in a while.
Of course, most of them were not satisfactory.
“Bu Yan! What’s wrong with your Dazed Rain Frog? It’s already been two months. Why hasn’t it evolved to the second stage? Is the power of its Water Bullet soul skill used to water plants?”
“Tong Liang, what are you laughing at? Your Cottony has evolved. Where’s your soul skill? How many have you learned? Can it beat you into the hospital with a single slap? If it can’t, it just didn’t train properly!”
“Xu Haifeng, come out here! It’s been two months! The Hundred Flowers Beast from the neighboring class has already completed its third stage evolution! It’s already begun to learn a hundred-year soul skill. Good fellow, your Thousand-faced Flower is great. Why are you raising it like a human child? It eats so much every day and barely trains. The Soft Powder used is like cumin powder. It has no effect at all.”
“Are you going to open a barbecue stall?”
…
Teacher Zheng reprimanded them sternly.
This caused all the students and their soul pets to be silent.
He was not satisfied with these dozen students.
Until…
“Alright, Wang Che is back. Take a look for yourselves…”
Teacher Zheng waved at Wang Che’s green caterpillar, “Look at this green caterpillar. Look at its skin, its fur, its size, the power contained in its body, the gaze in its eyes, the abundant soul power aura…”
“Come, little one, release a Spit Thread and aim it at the rock ahead.”
The green caterpillar walked out and glanced at Wang Che.
Wang Che nodded slightly.
The green caterpillar immediately understood.
It opened its mouth and spat out a not-so-thick white thread, instantly trapping a boulder weighing more than 500 kilograms in front of it for testing.
Then, it bit the thread and swung it gently.
The huge rock was flung more than ten meters away.
“Look, look, look! Take a look at your own soul pets.”
Teacher Zheng pointed at the students, “This Spit Thread contains 500 years of experience. How many of you can withstand it?”
“This move originally had no power to speak of. Without painstaking training day and night, and hard work far exceeding the ordinary, how can it have such power?”
Many students and soul pets immediately lowered their heads.
The green caterpillar tilted its head and pondered, ‘Have I worked very hard…? It doesn’t seem so exaggerated.’
It was just eating leaves and snacks every day…
However, at this moment, the green caterpillar felt that it was a little cool.
It understood something.
Status was not important as long as it was strong!
The green caterpillar did not envy the Thousand-faced Flower anymore.
