Chapter 65: Ghost-faced Flower Dancing Butterfly vs. Milk Dushuwa

Ge Bai couldn't be bothered to check the detailed skill descriptions for the Ghost-faced Flower Dancing Butterfly and the Milk Dushuwa, so she simply moved her Spirit Sense to link to the system.

Looking at the Milk Dushuwa again, the information automatically surfaced.

【Species: Milk Dushuwa (Overlord Race)】

【Spirit Power Value: Zero Tier (Mortal Spirit Realm) Level Eight (489.45/800)】

【Attribute: Water】

【Skill: Sticky Tongue - Mastery. Skill Description: High-speed extension of a long, sticky tongue to bind prey for slamming or restraint.】

【Skill: Poison Gas - Proficient. Skill Description: Releases a gas containing neurotoxins to paralyze the opponent.】

Aside from a slightly insufficient growth ceiling in the mid-to-late stages, this Pet Beast was still very powerful in the early stages.

Moreover, judging by the skill proficiency, the Beast Master had raised it quite well.

After reading the Milk Dushuwa's information, Ge Bai turned her gaze to the Ghost-faced Flower Dancing Butterfly.

【Species: Ghost-faced Flower Dancing Butterfly (Extraordinary Race)】

【Spirit Power Value: Zero Tier (Mortal Spirit Realm) Level Nine (836.62/900)】

【Attribute: Wind】

【Skill: Butterfly Phosphorus Powder - Proficient. Skill Description: Flaps wings to scatter phosphorus powder, causing poison damage.】

【Skill: Ghost-Face Dance - Proficient. Skill Description: Uses flight combined with the ghost-face patterns on its wings to cause mental attacks, aiming to stun the opponent.】

Ge Bai had heard of Pet Beasts like the Ghost-faced Flower Dancing Butterfly; she had even considered contracting one before.

Not only was it relatively easy to raise in the early stages, but its combat power wasn't bad, and butterfly-type Pet Beasts had one chance to form a cocoon in their lifetime.

After forming a cocoon, the Beast Master could continuously provide different materials to the cocoon to re-nurture the Pet Beast, thereby increasing its race level.

Don't look at this Ghost-faced Flower Dancing Butterfly as just an Extraordinary Race now; who knows what it could grow into later?

Therefore, butterfly-type Pet Beasts were generally the favorites of "gambler" Beast Masters! However, just looking at the information for the two Pet Beasts, Ge Bai really couldn't come to a conclusion as decisively as Xiaolajiao.

"The Ghost-faced Flower Dancing Butterfly isn't bad either. Why is it in trouble?"

Ge Bai didn't stand on ceremony and asked her question directly.

Xiaolajiao chuckled but didn't say it directly.

"I know a Beast Master who specializes in raising butterfly-type Pet Beasts. I've seen their Ghost-faced Flower Dancing Butterfly when it was in the Mortal Spirit Realm; it was very powerful."

"The strength of a Ghost-faced Flower Dancing Butterfly actually depends mainly on the 'Ghost-Face Dance' skill. Judging by the patterns on its wings, this butterfly's skill is average; the Beast Master hasn't put in enough effort."

Xiaolajiao clearly hadn't finished speaking, and Ge Bai wanted to ask a few more questions, but the referee on the field signaled that everything was ready, and the fight had already begun.

The two stopped chatting and focused their full attention on the field.

The Ghost-faced Butterfly made the first move, flapping its wings and flying toward the Dushuwa.

The Dushuwa performed very steadily, lying motionless on the spot, its head slightly raised, looking at the Ghost-faced Butterfly without any fear.

"Ghost-Face Dance!"

The Ghost-faced Butterfly's Beast Master shouted.

From the spectator area, it was obvious that the Ghost-faced Butterfly's flight trajectory had changed; it was no longer flying in a straight line but was circling in a regular pattern.

The Dushuwa still looked up at the Ghost-faced Butterfly, as if it hadn't been affected at all.

"Don't struggle. You're far behind."

The Dushuwa's Beast Master stood relaxed on the spot, hands in pockets, shouting provocatively.

Ghost-Face Dance ineffective? Before Ge Bai could ask, Xiaolajiao had an expression of realization. "See? I told you this Ghost-faced Butterfly wouldn't cut it."

"Its 'Ghost-Face Dance' skill is at most at the Proficient level; it hasn't even reached Mastery. The mental impact is too low."

"The Dushuwa is born with dynamic vision. A 'Ghost-Face Dance' without mental impact is useless to it. Isn't that like winking at a blind person?"

Xiaolajiao crossed her arms over her chest. She had been leaning forward, craning her neck to look, but now she was already leaning back against the seat, casting her gaze toward other fields.

After Xiaolajiao's explanation, Ge Bai understood a lot more. As expected of a main team member of the Jinggang No. 1 High School Team, she was knowledgeable and had superb insight.

Although the result might be certain, Ge Bai still paid serious attention to the duel between the two sides.

The Ghost-faced Butterfly's Beast Master clearly realized their disadvantage, but they weren't prepared to give up directly.

"Gain altitude, Butterfly Phosphorus Powder."

Hearing the command, the Ghost-faced Butterfly immediately changed its flight path and headed straight above the Dushuwa. It didn't dare to get too close, likely worried about not being able to dodge the Dushuwa's Sticky Tongue.

The Dushuwa, which had been watching the Ghost-faced Butterfly the whole time, adjusted its posture, its two hind legs slightly flexed. It was preparing to make a move.

Ge Bai, sitting in the stands, couldn't hear it, but in fact, the Beast Master standing beside the Dushuwa had also given a command at this moment.

"Dodge, drive away, high jump, Sticky Tongue."

This Beast Master clearly analyzed the battle situation more thoroughly; they were starting to control the rhythm of the match.

The Dushuwa wasn't in a hurry. It only jumped to dodge after the Ghost-faced Butterfly flew close and had even started to scatter phosphorus powder.

The phosphorus powder drifted down, but it didn't cause much impact on the Dushuwa.

On one hand, the Dushuwa, which contained toxins, had a certain resistance to poison itself; on the other hand, the Ghost-faced Butterfly had scattered the phosphorus powder from too far away, and the drifting powder was sparse, with very little actually landing on the Dushuwa.

The Dushuwa, having jumped away, still made no extra moves, just lying on the spot, staring intently at the Ghost-faced Butterfly dancing in mid-air.

The Ghost-faced Butterfly had no choice but to fly closer, attempting to use Butterfly Phosphorus Powder again.

This time, the Ghost-faced Butterfly flew into the Dushuwa's attack range. The black and white Dushuwa saw a cloud of phosphorus powder heading straight for it and quickly jumped to the side.

After barely dodging the range of the phosphorus powder, the Dushuwa exerted force again as soon as it landed. This jump was completely different from the jumps it had made to dodge just moments before.

Not only was it faster, but the height was also astonishing.

Ge Bai, staring intently at the Dushuwa, could even see the afterimage of the frog's legs.

The Dushuwa leaped up, instantly closing the distance between itself and the Ghost-faced Butterfly.

Although the Ghost-faced Butterfly's combat awareness was also good—after releasing the Butterfly Phosphorus Powder, it didn't stay frozen on the spot but gained altitude to increase the distance from the ground.

But the leaping Dushuwa was too fast. With one Sticky Tongue, it hit the Ghost-faced Butterfly without any suspense.

The Ghost-faced Butterfly struggled desperately, releasing all the remaining Butterfly Phosphorus Powder it had accumulated. The power of the Sticky Tongue, which had been coated with the powder, was affected. The Dushuwa didn't force it either; seeing that this attack wouldn't succeed while it was falling, it retracted its Sticky Tongue.

Before falling, it didn't forget to spray a large amount of poison gas.

The Ghost-faced Butterfly, hit by the Sticky Tongue, flew unsteadily. It was trying to continue gaining altitude to dodge straight upward.

But it didn't expect that the angle at which the Dushuwa sprayed the poison gas had also been calculated.

The poison gas spreading straight upward forced the Ghost-faced Butterfly to fly backward.

The Dushuwa didn't stay idle after landing; it immediately jumped forward and then followed up with a high jump.

This time, the Ghost-faced Butterfly was likely doomed.
