Chapter 68: Booking the next hot search [Two-in-one]
The Thunder Flame Patterned Rabbit was getting closer and closer to Da Liu. Da Liu casually threw out two Wind Blades; this attack wasn't exactly focused.
Although the distance and time of the Thunder Flame Patterned Rabbit's advance were enough for Da Liu to organize another decent round of Wind Blades or directly prepare a Wind Weave Domain, it just let the Thunder Flame Patterned Rabbit approach. Those two Wind Blades were just harassment, with the intention of making the Thunder Flame Patterned Rabbit's advance not so easy.
This brat, it's becoming more and more playful now.
Ge Bai understood what Da Liu wanted to do immediately and couldn't help but silently complain.
She thought that she would have to request a higher-level opponent later, otherwise Da Liu wouldn't have enough fun fighting.
Qian Dai, held in Ge Bai's arms, had been watching the two sides of the battle eagerly since going on the field.
When she saw Da Liu fire Wind Blades simultaneously to flip the Thunder Flame Patterned Rabbit over, she couldn't help but pout.
At this moment, she twisted her body, looking unhappy, and muttered to herself.
"Ge Bai, I want to make a move too."
"I'm much faster than Da Liu; I can finish this rabbit in one move."
"Da Liu is dawdling; it just hasn't played enough!"
"Ge Bai, Ge Bai, Ge Bai! Let me do it."
Hearing Qian Dai say this, Ge Bai silently tightened the arm holding her, but her tone was exceptionally gentle.
"Don't rush, Qian Dai. This rabbit is only at Level 4 of the Mortal Spirit Realm; why would we need you? Let's wait for the next match."
"We're not just fighting one match here; there will be opportunities for you to make a move! Don't worry."
Ge Bai was very diligent in her stalling.
"Then you promised me, let me do it in the next match!"
Qian Dai didn't let Ge Bai off, taking the opportunity to make a request.
"Ah? Hmm, if the opponent is strong, we'll definitely need our Qian Dai to make a move!"
Ge Bai didn't take the bait, saying some correct nonsense.
She was very smooth at fooling flowers and trees now.
Ge Bai knew very well that although Qian Dai's level was higher than Da Liu's now, both her skill proficiency and her understanding of skills were far behind, and there was still a lot of grinding to do.
It was fine to let Qian Dai use her level advantage to bully the weak or use her attribute advantage to fight a favorable battle, but it would be difficult to ask for more.
But if the main force of the battle was Da Liu and Qian Dai provided support, that would be different.
Ge Bai came to this arena audition with this goal in mind. —— While Qian Dai and Ge Bai were chatting enthusiastically, Da Liu wasn't idle either.
Da Liu, who was accumulating power, let the Thunder Flame Patterned Rabbit approach, but it didn't forget to stare intently at its trajectory and movements.
The Thunder Flame Patterned Rabbit leaped, entering Da Liu's close-combat range, ready to use close-combat attacks at any time.
Its Beast Master saw this and looked happy, shouting eagerly.
"Hong Tu, Low Kick."
The Thunder Flame Patterned Rabbit also quickly adjusted its posture, not only exerting force with its hind limbs but also having Spirit Power fluctuations flashing on the fiery red patterns on its four limbs.
It seemed it was also preparing for this strike with all its might.
Da Liu had been waiting for this.
The Willow Whip skill had been accumulating power for a long time. Facing the flying kick of the Thunder Flame Patterned Rabbit, it lashed out with great force without mercy.
That's right, Da Liu did it on purpose.
It could have clearly defeated the opponent outside the safe range with Wind Blades, but it insisted on trying close-quarters combat.
*Pa! * The Thunder Flame Patterned Rabbit's flying kick met the willow branches filled with Spirit Power and had no power to resist.
Not to mention causing damage to the willow branches, it didn't even feel like it had caused any obvious obstruction.
Several Willow Whips lashed out simultaneously, carrying a sharp wind, and intersected with each other, like a net that couldn't be escaped, smashing onto the Thunder Flame Patterned Rabbit's head and face.
Ji...
*Bang! * The Thunder Flame Patterned Rabbit, lashed away by the Willow Whip, wailed and smashed heavily onto the arena.
The Thunder Flame Patterned Rabbit's originally snow-white and soft fur had long since become gray, and the originally bright fiery red patterns on its body had dimmed, not even as conspicuous as the bloody marks caused by the Wind Blades and Willow Whips.
This time, the Thunder Flame Patterned Rabbit, which had been lashed away, no longer had the strength to crawl up.
"Hong Tu!"
The Thunder Flame Patterned Rabbit's Beast Master rushed to its side, knelt on one knee, and picked it up.
The Beast Master also knew that his Pet Beast had reached its limit.
He looked up and stared deeply at Da Liu. At this moment, Da Liu looked completely undamaged, and even the fluttering willow branches were filled with Spirit Power, appearing very lustrous.
Only then did he have to admit that it was truly a matter of strength; his own Thunder Flame Patterned Rabbit was far behind that Weeping Willow.
He really didn't know where such a little monster had popped out from.
He lowered his head helplessly, looking at his severely injured Pet Beast with heartache.
The referee, who was paying attention to the arena, entered in a timely manner.
He just glanced at the Thunder Flame Patterned Rabbit's state, didn't even ask for the Beast Master's opinion, and hurriedly called the healer onto the stage.
At the same time, he announced directly.
"Winner, Spirit Plant Master Ge Bai, Pet Beast Weeping Willow."
In fact, before the referee announced the result.
The moment Da Liu lashed the Thunder Flame Patterned Rabbit away, the surrounding stands were already in an uproar.
Until Ge Bai left the field with Da Liu, the audience's discussions in the stands were endless.
"What kind of willow tree is this? So powerful! These few Willow Whips are more powerful than the snake whip of my Ringed Snake."
A Beast Master with a snake-type Pet Beast hanging around his neck exclaimed. He didn't feel much when he saw Da Liu throwing Wind Blades, but those last few Willow Whips really touched him.
And the Ringed Snake hanging around his neck was unhappy to hear its Beast Master say this.
The snake tail, which was originally drooping behind, suddenly raised up and lashed its Beast Master's face without holding back, instantly leaving a red mark on his face.
"Ah! Huagou! How many times have I told you, don't hit the face when hitting people, can't you remember!"
The Beast Master who was slapped in the face was furious after being slapped by his own Pet Beast.
Covering the red mark on his face with one hand and clamping the snake head with the other, he forced the Ringed Snake to look at him.
This Ringed Snake named Huagou was as thick as an adult's arm, and it didn't show any weakness when looking directly at its Beast Master. It hissed and spat its snake tongue, looking like it couldn't wait to do it again.
The companion sitting on the side saw that the commotion wasn't a good thing and hurriedly appeased them.
"Don't talk nonsense, our Huagou's snake whip is very powerful!"
"Huagou, your Beast Master is a bit silly, don't hold it against him."
"Is this a Weeping Willow? Where can you buy seedlings? I want to contract one."
On the other side, two Spirit Plant Masters chatted more pragmatically.
"Keep dreaming. The Spirit Plant Institute has Weeping Willow seedlings all year round. Don't you know if they have skills? This is a wild Weeping Willow, okay."
It was obvious that this Spirit Plant Master had already searched for information about Weeping Willows on the Internet.
"The Spirit Plant Research Institute just released relevant news. This Weeping Willow belongs to a mutant species, and its bloodline level has reached the Commander level." "It is said that they are already cultivating seedlings of the same origin with all their might, and it will probably take more than half a year to put them on the market."
"Ah? A Commander-level Spirit Plant, I can't afford it either."
Ge Bai, this Spirit Plant Master, and Da Liu, this Weeping Willow, are estimated to be able to hit the hot search again today.
Bringing the line of sight back to Ge Bai's side.
Just as she returned to the waiting area, a staff member wearing the unified uniform of the arena tournament stepped forward and asked if she needed to arrange treatment.
Treatment wasn't needed; Da Liu knew how to take care of itself. As soon as it left the field, it asked Qian Dai for a bottle of nutrient solution and drank it by itself.
Well, they weren't short of nutrient solution now, drink whatever you want, can't wrong yourself.
Da Liu was very clear in its heart.
Qian Dai, who was treated as a mobile warehouse, although she threw the nutrient solution to Da Liu, the more she looked at Da Liu, the more unhappy she became.
When it was time to show off, there was no me, Qian Dai Chun Jian Lan, and when it was time to ask for nutrient solution, you remembered? The angry little orchid pouted, the more she thought about it, the angrier she became, and she also took out a bottle of nutrient solution and drank it.
Drink, drink, as long as it doesn't make a fuss, what's wrong with drinking some nutrient solution.
One of the mysteries of the master of balancing, as long as it's not punctured, it's not considered a conflict.
Ge Bai pretended she didn't see the eye contact between these two, very focused, smiling at the staff.
"After winning this match, the system calculation shows that your current ranking is 872nd."
"May I ask if you still choose to randomly assign opponents for the next match? If so, the estimated opponent's strength will be around Level 5 of the Mortal Spirit Realm. There is still a chance to play one or two more matches today."
The staff held the handheld control panel, informed Ge Bai of the relevant information, and asked about her next battle plan.
"For the next match, I want to challenge a higher level."
Ge Bai directly rejected the proposal of random opponent assignment.
Hearing Ge Bai say this, the staff wasn't surprised at all.
They had watched the whole match in the waiting area just now. Although this Weeping Willow was only at Level 4 of the Mortal Spirit Realm, it won too easily.
Judging from the strength it showed, challenging Pet Beasts at Level 7 or 8 of the Mortal Spirit Realm by 3-4 levels wasn't a difficult task.
What's more, the staff wasn't blind; Ge Bai was holding another Pet Beast in her arms.
This orchid looked full of Spirit Power. What did it just take out of thin air? That must be a space skill. This also looked like a Spirit Plant that shouldn't be messed with.
"No problem, which level are you preparing to challenge? We will arrange it for you as soon as possible."
The staff operated the control panel, brought up the higher-level challenge application column, and waited for Ge Bai's answer.
"Level 1 of the Transcendence Realm."
???
Hearing this answer, the staff was obviously stunned for a moment.
"Excuse me, may I ask if it's Level 1 of the Transcendence Realm?"
They heard it very clearly, but still looked up, stared at Ge Bai, spoke slowly word by word, and confirmed with her again in an uncertain tone.
Are you kidding? Level 1 of the Transcendence Realm and Level 7, 8, 9 of the Mortal Spirit Realm are not the same concept.
Although Ge Bai won this match easily, it didn't look like she could defeat a Level 1 Transcendence Realm Pet Beast.
Besides, Level 1 of the Transcendence Realm was the entry standard for the city-level arena tournament auditions.
"Yes."
Ge Bai answered decisively.
"La!"
Qiandai Lan also responded in the same tone. Da Liu was the only one who was glorious on the stage just now, and she was still thinking about making a move.
"Are you sure? Crossing too many levels at once may bring setbacks to the Pet Beast. Why don't you try to challenge level by level?"
The staff looked at the mini-sized little willow tree and the little orchid waving its flower sword, and still persuaded her.
"Thank you, no, still Level 1 of the Transcendence Realm."
Ge Bai felt the staff's kindness, nodded slightly to them, and cast a grateful look.
But she didn't intend to change the decision to challenge Level 1 of the Transcendence Realm; the damn system task was still hanging there.
Moreover, the arena tournament auditions allowed joint attacks by multiple Pet Beasts. With Da Liu and Qian Dai cooperating, challenging Level 1 of the Transcendence Realm wasn't out of reach.
If it really didn't work, she could still call out Xiao Tao, this cheat.
Seeing Ge Bai so persistent, the staff had no choice.
It just so happened that Ge Bai's player combat power was calculated to be around Level 5 of the Mortal Spirit Realm, and the arena tournament rules allowed challenges across 5 levels, so according to the regulations, Ge Bai and the others could just challenge Level 1 of the Transcendence Realm.
Ge Bai didn't know this rule, but it didn't matter if she knew it. If she wasn't allowed to cross too many levels, she would just go and register Qiandai Lan's level, which wasn't a troublesome thing.
The staff submitted the higher-level challenge application according to Ge Bai's request.
Not two minutes later, the arena tournament official matched Ge Bai's next battle.
"Your next player ranking is 128th, player name: Hao Hao, occupation: Beast Master, registered Pet Beast: Level 1 Transcendence Realm Huangling Jingang Xuanfeng, estimated battle time, around 16:00 today."
"Please confirm again whether you want to challenge this player at a higher level."
The staff reported the estimated battle situation to Ge Bai according to the process.
This Beast Master only registered one Level 1 Transcendence Realm Huangling Jingang Xuanfeng, which meant that he had only sent out this one Pet Beast from the beginning of the competition until now.
What's more coincidental is that the player ranking is 128th.
The gatekeeper of the audition entry! The arena tournament auditions only allowed higher-level challenges and did not allow selecting opponents based on ranking.
This hit the gatekeeper all at once. If she won, Ge Bai would directly obtain the qualification to enter the audition tournament.
Although it was temporary, I have to say that her luck was really good. Is this God's will?
"Confirmed."
Ge Bai answered without hesitation; she had to seize this opportunity.
After handling these procedural matters in the waiting area, Ge Bai left.
She didn't return directly to the spectator area but found a relatively quiet training room.
There was about an hour left before the next match, so she had to prepare well.
The most important thing was to equip Da Liu with the Time Soil.
Yes, she had just obtained the Time Soil from the Secret Realm space yesterday, and it was already very late when she returned to the Blue Star Welfare Institute in the evening. She had been busy sparring at the Yunhe Martial Arts Hall this morning and then came directly to the arena audition site.
Ge Bai just didn't find the time to use this high-level resource.
This made her realize that since becoming a Spirit Plant Master, she had not only grown into a master of balancing but also a master of time management, wishing she could live by the hour.
Shaking her head helplessly, Ge Bai asked Qian Dai to take out a portion of Time Soil.
Qiandai Lan was more precise than Ge Bai in grasping the amount of Time Soil used. She knew how much was enough and how much she had used.
The Time Soil taken out from the space bag was shining with light. Seeing this, Da Liu showed curiosity, jumped down from Ge Bai's shoulder, took small steps to the side of the Time Soil, and gently touched it with its willow branches.
"Bai Bai, I like this kind of soil very much." As for how exactly it liked it, Da Liu couldn't say clearly.
Ge Bai smiled, "It's prepared for you."
Qian Dai found her sense of existence at this moment, "Stupid Da Liu, I'll teach you how to use it." ===== CHAPTER 69 =====
