Hearing Ge Bai explain the sparring method clearly, Huachenshan was immediately relieved. Not only was there no great risk, but it could also make the sparring method richer, avoiding You Hu getting bored after training for a long time.

Furthermore, adding a sparring Spirit Plant without extra cost meant he was the one profiting.

Huachenshan suddenly patted You Hu, who was resting beside him, "No problem, let's do it your way."

It gave You Hu quite a start.

He glanced at his Beast Master with resentment. Adding more difficulty? When would he ever finish this round of training and happily go on a date with Aoli?

Sigh, it's hard being a lynx every day.

On this side, seeing that Huachenshan and You Hu had no objections, Ge Bai turned back to give instructions to Da Liu and Qian Dai. Both Da Liu and Qian Dai were eager to try.

Ge Bai thought for a moment and didn't forget to add, "Da Liu, with things like this now, lower your Wind Blade frequency a bit. I'm afraid the pressure on You Hu's side will be too great."

Da Liu nodded; it was a piece of cake.

The second half of the sparring began.

Da Liu still stood in place, firing Wind Blades one after another. You Hu hadn't been training in vain these past two days; he clearly felt that the frequency of Da Liu's Wind Blades had decreased.

He instantly felt he could do it again and began to charge forward with high spirits.

Qian Dai didn't stand beside Da Liu; instead, she hovered in mid-air, silently gathering power before suddenly flicking out a Qian Dai Sword.

This angle was even trickier than Da Liu's Wind Blades. You Hu noticed the Qian Dai Sword and felt immediate pressure. His footsteps became chaotic, and before the Qian Dai Sword could even strike close, he was knocked down by a Wind Blade.

"Meow-ow!"

You Hu rolled over and stood up. He wasn't convinced; it was just his carelessness this time.

With a leap, he returned to his starting position. He glanced at Da Liu, then at Qian Dai, and tilted his head, signaling for another round quickly.

"It seems the effect is good. With an extra little partner, You Hu is very spirited."

Ge Bai pressed her headset and said to Huachenshan.

"Yes, yes, You Hu's fighting spirit is up too."

You Hu crouched low, his hind legs exerting force, and he leaped out in a dash. Da Liu's Wind Blades arrived instantly.

Qian Dai now needed 2-3 seconds to charge up a Qian Dai Sword. She wasn't in a hurry; she hadn't been asked to maintain a high frequency from the start.

Seeing that her previous attack had put pressure on You Hu, Qian Dai also became interested. If the frequency wasn't high, she would win with angles.

She carefully observed the entire field, calculated You Hu's forward trajectory, and used a Space Shift to change positions. Just as she appeared in the new spot, she flicked out a Qian Dai Sword before You Hu could react.

This time, You Hu was busy dealing with the Wind Blades and only saw the Qian Dai Sword when it was right in front of his face. Unsurprisingly, he was hit square in the face.

A Qian Dai Sword without an exploding Space Distortion couldn't match the power of a Wind Blade. You Hu just lowered his head slightly, took the hit, shook his head, and was fine.

But according to the sparring rules, he still had to return to the other side of the field to charge again.

It didn't hurt, but it was annoying. You Hu grumbled to himself while walking back with his head hanging low.

He also realized that although Da Liu's attack frequency had dropped, two attack points were much harder to deal with than one.

"Ge Bai! Ge Bai! Did you see that? My Qian Dai Sword hit the lynx right in the face!"

Seeing her hit land, Qian Dai jumped excitedly in mid-air.

Ge Bai gave her a thumbs up. This little one was having quite a lot of fun.

She didn't forget to stroke Da Liu's trunk, "Da Liu is also great. You must also pay more attention to Qian Dai's attacks; you never know when the next one might come for you."

"En!" Da Liu responded solemnly. He wasn't like Qian Dai, so unsteady.

Another round.

Ge Bai, who was constantly watching Qian Dai, noticed that this time, after firing the Qian Dai Sword, she didn't relax at all. Her surrounding Spirit Power was even stronger. It was coming.

Ge Bai's arms, crossed over her chest, squeezed her arms tightly. She glanced at Da Liu without giving any warning, instead staring unblinkingly at the flying Qian Dai Sword. This time, You Hu noticed the Qian Dai Sword flying toward him and was already prepared to dodge.

But just as he jumped away, he found that the Qian Dai Sword that should have been attacking him had vanished into thin air.

You Hu, stunned in place, was turning his head to look for the target when he was hit squarely by the following Wind Blade.

"Meow-ow!"

The knocked-down You Hu lay on the ground rolling. This one doesn't count! It was his carelessness this time!

You Hu was the first to be eliminated this round, but Da Liu's trouble wasn't over yet.

The Qian Dai Sword appeared out of thin air more than 10 meters in front of Da Liu, shooting straight at him.

Da Liu had heard clearly just now: the Qian Dai Sword shot at him was different from the one shot at You Hu; it would explode.

Recalling the willow threads shredded by the Space Distortion yesterday, Da Liu shuddered.

Swish, swish, swish.

This time he didn't hold back, firing three Wind Blades in quick succession in an attempt to intercept the Qian Dai Sword. He didn't want to taste the feeling of his willow threads being shredded again.

You Hu lay on the ground, not getting up, resting his head on his paws and watching this scene with interest.

The preparation time given to Da Liu was indeed too short; the three Wind Blades were not very accurate and all missed.

At this moment, the Qian Dai Sword was less than 5 meters away from Da Liu. Fire another round of Wind Blades? Or prepare the Willow Whip?

Da Liu had no time to hesitate. Another round, four Wind Blades fired simultaneously.

Bang.

The Wind Blades hit the Qian Dai Sword.

They finally managed to intercept the Qian Dai Sword just outside his range; the range of the Space Distortion explosion was no more than a dozen centimeters from Da Liu.

Da Liu let out a sharp sigh of relief. This round was too dangerous.

"Da Liu, you were anxious."

Ge Bai, who had watched the whole thing, didn't miss this educational opportunity.

"The first round of Wind Blades was below standard. Did you fail to adjust from the constant-speed Wind Blades?"

"At a ten-meter attack distance, you were too lenient with yourself. If you had gone all out, you would have immediately prepared the second round of Wind Blades without hesitation after the first. In terms of time, even if the second round didn't stop the Qian Dai Sword, you should have been able to prepare the Willow Whip skill, instead of just standing there waiting."

Everything Ge Bai said was correct. It wasn't just that the mechanical sparring had made Da Liu a bit lax; having beaten Qian Dai once, his regard for the Qian Dai Sword was far lower than he thought.

"Understood, Bai Bai. I'll do better next time."

Ge Bai stroked Da Liu's trunk and then called Qian Dai over. Since she had started lecturing, she couldn't just lecture one side.

Qian Dai flashed to Ge Bai's side and rubbed against her affectionately.

Although Ge Bai was very happy, she forced herself to keep a straight face and pulled Qian Dai a bit further away.

"Wasn't your landing point too casual? Control it!"

"Oh."

The little orchid had been quite satisfied with her performance; not only did she fool You Hu, but she almost hit Da Liu too.

Being told this by Ge Bai, she felt a bit dampened.

Ge Bai didn't coddle her either, tapping the little flower on the tip of the flower sword firmly, "Since you're sparring, put more heart into it."

"Got it~ Got it!"

Qian Dai fluttered her leaves, shook her flower sword, and flashed away. She would do better in the next round!

Thanks to the friends who gave monthly tickets to Youzi~
