Chapter 28: Won! Brain-opening or logical? Anyway, it's a new skill!

~8 min read 1,515 words

The macaque was thrown dizzy and flew toward the rear.

But Da Liu wasn't feeling well either; two of the six willow silk strands entangling the macaque broke. 【28-

Ge Bai looked at the willow silk fragments on the ground, feeling another pang of heartache, and couldn't help but rest a hand on Da Liu's trunk.

Although she knew that injuries were inevitable in Pet Beast battles, it was still hard to get used to it the first time.

The moment she threw the macaque, Ge Bai realized that Da Liu's current strength was limited and there was no way to throw the macaque directly out of the arena to end the battle.

The macaque flying in the air also displayed decent combat awareness, trying its best to adjust its posture.

It landed barely on the edge of the arena.

After landing, its body tilted and it rolled backward twice.

"Mixiong, stand up, one more round."

Zhang He squatted down and encouraged it.

The macaque shook its head, landed on all fours again, and set its posture for a charge.

This can't go on like this.

Ge Bai knew that if it turned into a turn-based war of attrition, it wouldn't be favorable for Da Liu; she had to find a way to break the deadlock.

Got it!

With a flash of inspiration, Ge Bai pulled up the Spirit Plant Cultivation Manual and took a quick glance.

【Skill: Willow Whip - Proficient (21/200); Wind Blade - Proficient (37/200)】

The Wind Blade proficiency is enough; I can try it.

"Da Liu, don't rush, focus your power, and try your best to fire more Wind Blades."

"Fire the Wind Blades in pairs, crossing in a cross shape to form a grid."

Ge Bai issued the command as briefly, clearly, and explicitly as possible.

"Liu Gu!"

The person and the tree seemed to be of one mind at this moment.

Although it was the first time hearing such a method of using Wind Blade, Da Liu could accurately understand Ge Bai's idea at this time.

Plus, with his constant practice and battles over the past two days, he had a certain understanding of Wind Blade.

Da Liu calmed his heart and tried his best.

On the other side of the arena, the macaque had already adjusted and charged again.

5 meters.

At first, worried about Da Liu's Wind Blade attack, the macaque remained cautious, moving forward in an S-shape.

10 meters.

No Wind Blade? The macaque was a bit puzzled, lowering its body, speed undiminished but even more careful.

15 meters.

In the previous round, when the macaque rushed here, Da Liu had already fired two rounds of Wind Blades, but this time, he was still gathering power.

"Mixiong, watch out."

Zhang He also saw that something was wrong, but such a good attacking opportunity really couldn't be missed.

Ge Bai clenched her left fist tightly, feeling exceptionally nervous.

She didn't even know if Da Liu could successfully execute this skill right now.

If not, she would need to concede in time to terminate the battle.

19 meters.

One more step, and the macaque would touch Da Liu's swaying willow silk.

"Now!"

Ge Bai shouted out loud to alert Da Liu.

Da Liu's flying willow silk flashed with spirit light, and 8 Wind Blades intersecting in pairs flew out, forming a nine-grid shape like a net, smashing toward the macaque.

This was not just a simple addition of the number of Wind Blades; after overlapping, the attack surface and attack power of the Wind Blades also increased exponentially.

"Mixiong!"

Seeing this scene, Zhang He's heart tightened; it's over.

The macaque was hit head-on by Da Liu's Wind Blade net.

It wasn't that it wasn't agile enough, but the distance between the two was too close, and the net surface was indeed unavoidable.

The Wind Blade net, mixed with wind-attribute Spirit Power, whistled in. After being hit, the macaque fell to the ground with a thud.

Although it blocked with its arms in front, one could see bloodstains appearing over large areas of its body.

Monkey fur scattered all over the ground, and it fell heavily back to Zhang He's feet, looking very disheveled.

After falling this time, the macaque struggled for a moment and didn't climb up immediately.

Ran Caijiao observed the field and calmly blew her whistle.

"Three-second countdown, three, two, one."

"Left side signals!" Zhang He was already holding the macaque to check its injuries and raised his hand without looking up, "Concede!"

Ran Caijiao blew the whistle again and announced: "The right side wins!"

Ge Bai let out a long sigh of relief.

At this moment, the system sound suddenly rang out.

"Ding, congratulations to the host."

"Species: Weeping Ancient Willow, learned new skill: Wind Weaving Domain, proficiency: Entry (1/100)."

Ge Bai felt a surge of joy in her heart.

The skill awakened during the contract, Storm Willow Blade Hammer, hadn't been learned yet, and now another new skill had been developed.

An unexpected surprise.

No, Ge Bai always thought two steps ahead when it came to the system now.

"System! That's not right! Da Liu also used the skill Binding just now."

Ge Bai began to argue unreasonably.

The system gave no response.

"Don't play dead, System, give me an explanation."

"Hey! I'm calling you, I know you can hear me, hurry up and make a sound!"

Ge Bai persistently called out to the system.

Perhaps seeing that Ge Bai was too persistent this time, the system pondered for a moment and gave a vague response.

"Weeping Ancient Willow, skill proficiency: Willow Whip - Proficient (53/200)."

The system, like a stubborn gourd, only said this much and refused to say another word.

Ge Bai curled her lips; she understood.

The system counted the Binding of the willow silk as another form of using Willow Whip.

The skill point addition was also reflected in the significant increase in Willow Whip proficiency.

Willow Whip probably also had an advanced version of a high-level skill, but it wasn't in the direction of Binding; she still had to explore further.

Thinking that the system knew everything but said nothing, Ge Bai felt her teeth itch with anger.

Having comprehended a new skill, Da Liu also had a sense of it.

"Bai Bai, this seems to be a new skill, I can feel it!"

Ge Bai patted Da Liu and walked around to check the wounds on Da Liu's trunk.

"Yes, it's called Wind Weaving Domain."

"I think after you become proficient, the range and attack power of the Wind Net will be even stronger."

Da Liu couldn't care about the pain at this moment and began to dance with joy.

Ge Bai patted Da Liu, preparing to let him transform back into his mini form.

Just as she was searching for a healing-type nutrient solution, she saw Ran Caijiao walking toward them.

"Wait a moment, let the healer give the Weeping Ancient Willow a healing spell."

As soon as she finished speaking, a young man wearing a martial arts hall uniform walked over, holding a snow-white Shengzhurumouhou.

Saying he was holding it, actually, the young man's palm was held flat, and the Shengzhurumouhou, the size of half a palm, climbed onto his finger, dangling and swaying at the fingertip.

After getting close, the Shengzhurumouhou waved its arm nimbly, a large amount of Spirit Power surged, and a white light with rich life attributes flew out from the Shengzhurumouhou's fingertip, covering Da Liu.

The wounds on Da Liu's trunk healed slowly, and the broken willow silk also quickly grew new tender buds.

Ge Bai looked at the Shengzhurumouhou with some curiosity; this was a type of Pet Beast she didn't know much about.

"Can they also use healing skills in their mini forms?"

The healing was still ongoing, and the young man had time to answer.

"No, the Shengzhurumouhou is just this size; it is an auxiliary Pet Beast specializing in healing skills."

Ge Bai was still puzzled.

"Aren't you a martial arts hall oriented toward giant apes? Does a Spirit Beast's healing spell also have an effect on Spirit Plants?"

Such detailed knowledge was indeed beyond Ge Bai's scope of cognition.

This time, Ran Caijiao gave the answer.

"Of course, Spirit Plant healing and Spirit Beast healing skills are theoretically considered life-attribute skills and are universal."

"It's just that different healing skills have different healing effects on different categories of Pet Beasts."

"The Shengzhurumouhou's healing skill is particularly effective for ape-type Pet Beasts, so the healers equipped in our martial arts hall all have contracted Shengzhurumouhou."

On the other side of the arena, Mixiong also recovered as before with the help of the healer, and Zhang He directly took it back to his Spirit Awareness Space to rest.

Da Liu's healing was also successfully completed. Looking at Da Liu, who had basically recovered, Ge Bai finally put her heart at ease and bowed gratefully to the healer.

There was another battle tomorrow, which would be completely different from the one these past two days.
