Chapter 79

Da Liu jumped down from Ge Bai's shoulder and, like the Bingkai Wushi, transformed back to his normal size in front of his Spirit Plant Master and stood firm by taking root.

Unlike the previous matches where Da Liu took root directly on the arena, Ge Bai had already reminded Da Liu and Qian Dai just now that this opponent was a close-combat type and they had to pay attention to dodging at all times.

Da Liu immediately mobilized the power of the Time Soil attribute contained in his body and took root on the Time Soil.

Although it looked like Da Liu was still standing on the arena surface, the effect was completely different. Not only would Qian Dai's space shifting skill on Da Liu be more convenient with the blessing of the Time Soil effect.

Da Liu's main trunk could also move in a small range more smoothly. Don't underestimate such a small displacement of one or two steps in a battle; sometimes it could really dodge a fatal attack.

In fact, Da Liu should put more effort into the use of Time Soil, preferably maintaining the power of Time Soil at all times, and finally getting used to taking root on Time Soil.

This had great benefits for the improvement of Da Liu's invisible strength. Many Spirit Plants that obtained Time Soil would treat this as a top priority task.

But there really wasn't enough time. Da Liu now had to seize the time to improve skill proficiency and also take time to improve Spirit Power value. In the next step, Ge Bai was also preparing to strengthen the practice of Da Liu and Qian Dai's combination skills. These were the most direct methods to rapidly improve Da Liu's combat power, which was equivalent to the compulsory questions in an exam.

And the digestion and tempering of Time Soil power belonged to the additional questions in the exam. If the compulsory questions hadn't been answered clearly, how could there be time to answer the additional questions? Wasn't that doing more harm than good?

Having no choice, it could only be put aside for the time being.

This could only be said that Da Liu obtained good things too early. Under normal circumstances, such high-level resources, Overlord-level or even Commander-level Spirit Beasts and Spirit Plants would be overjoyed if they could encounter a little bit. Spirit Beasts and Spirit Plants that had been stuck at a high level for many years naturally had the time and energy to put effort into the additional questions.

Seeing that both contestants were in position and signaling that they could start, the referee blew the whistle to start the match nimbly.

As soon as the whistle blew, the Bingkai Wushi rushed out from the spot instantly, flying rapidly toward Da Liu's direction.

During the charge, the Bingkai Wushi alternated his left and right hands on his waist. As he started to make the action of holding a blade, the ice-blue armor quickly transformed into a samurai long blade at this position.

Just looking at this charge and the action of starting, one knew that the opponent hadn't put little effort into martial arts.

Xiaolajiao also came to the arena tournament scene today and was watching the match with great interest in the stands.

She arrived a little late today and didn't see Ge Bai's previous match. She didn't come alone either; a quiet and thin little girl followed her.

"Cousin, this Bingkai Wushi's training traces are quite good. I seem to have seen the shadow of the Kaiyue Wuguan's training. What do you think?"

The little girl was also an expert, and just by looking at the Bingkai Wushi's starting charge, she could guess which martial arts hall's teaching it was.

Xiaolajiao nodded in agreement.

"It's very similar to that martial arts hall's warrior technique. The Kaiyue Wuguan still has its merits."

"By the way, I'm planning to invite their martial arts hall contestants to Hengran for a few sparring matches next week. If you have time, come over and play."

The little girl shook her head.

"Not necessarily free. We have a graduation exam next week."

This little girl was in the same session as Ge Bai, that cousin of Xiaolajiao, Fang Miaowen, who had contracted the Hanbing Baikai Xiong.

While she was talking, she was grabbing the white bear fur of the Hanbing Baikai Xiong sitting on the chair beside her.

This Hanbing Baikai Xiong was clearly still in its infancy, and its Spirit Power level wasn't high, just in the middle stage of the Mortal Spirit Realm.

But its size couldn't be called small at all. Clearly, it was already in its mini-form, but it was still half a person tall.

Looking at the silly big white bear, Fang Miaowen sighed.

"Baipangzi, you're growing too fast. You're not as cute as you were when you were small! Can you be even smaller in your mini-form?"

This Hanbing Baikai Xiong named Baipangzi looked at his Beast Master with words in his mouth, and said in a muffled voice.

"Miaowen, I'm a big bear! Being able to transform into this mini-form is already very small."

Listening to her cousin making things difficult for her big white bear again, Xiaolajiao knocked her on the head unhappily.

"Don't talk nonsense. The Hanbing Baikai Xiong is a large Pet Beast, and battles also rely on size to gain advantages. I've only heard of people complaining about the size being small, never heard of people complaining about the size being large."

"When Baipangzi is an adult in two years, the mini-form will be even bigger."

Saying that, Xiaolajiao pointed to Jingang, who was sitting on her right, for her cousin. "Baipangzi should be much larger than Jingang."

On Xiaolajiao's right, Jingang was holding back and occupying a seat by himself, and still felt a bit crowded, looking incomparably burly from behind.

Even the mini-form Jingang looked much sturdier than a burly man.

Fang Miaowen sighed helplessly and pressed her head against Baipangzi.

"But I really want a cute little white bear."

Baipangzi was a bit helpless, quietly stuffed a white fluffy bear claw into Fang Miaowen's arms, and opened his mouth aggrievedly.

"Miaowen, big bears are also quite cute. Come, I'll let you squeeze my claws."

The little girl took the opportunity to hug the bear claw and rubbed it fiercely against her face.

"Cute, cute, Baipangzi is also cute."

Xiaolajiao looked at her cousin and the aggrieved big white bear beside her speechlessly, shook her head, moved her gaze away, and didn't forget to push her cousin.

"Watch carefully. The Bingkai Wushi's attack has reference significance for Baipangzi."

"And his opponent, named Ge Bai, will probably be your classmate in the future. He is a very powerful Spirit Plant Master."

"Maybe you will encounter him during the special recruitment. Watching first won't do any harm."

Hearing her cousin say this, Fang Miaowen raised her head.

"Is it that Spirit Plant Master who has been very popular recently and contracted wild Spirit Plants and space Spirit Plants?"

Xiaolajiao nodded. "He has talent, perseverance, opportunity, and Ge Bai is also a very good person. You should also work hard."

Fang Miaowen looked at her cousin and automatically skipped the last sentence, but noticed her cousin's praise for Ge Bai.

She knew her cousin herself. Although she looked careless, her vision was extremely high, and she had always been very accurate in looking at people, so her uncle was also relieved to let her manage the martial arts hall usually.

She rarely praised others, but if she praised them, it must be a fact and not an exaggeration.

Not only that, as long as she said someone was good, then that person must be very good.

Thinking of her cousin, and then thinking of herself, Fang Miaowen wanted to roll her eyes. Having such an excellent cousin in the family, her pressure had always been very high, okay.

While her thoughts were turning, she also calmed down and paid attention to the match.

On the arena, Da Liu didn't just watch the Bingkai Wushi charge toward him without doing anything.

A group of Wind Blades was thrown out smoothly, appearing to be at ease and familiar with the road.

But the Bingkai Wushi didn't dodge, directly pulled out the Ice Blade transformed from the armor from his waist, changed his pace, and stood firm on the spot.

Slap, slap, slap, slap, slap, slap, slap, slap.

Aiming at the timing, he decisively swung the Ice Blade, one blade after another, a set of blade techniques flowing like water.

All nine Wind Blades were intercepted. The Wind Blades and the Ice Blade came into contact, making a crisp sound.

"Wind Weaving Domain."

Ge Bai spoke decisively. The simultaneous Wind Blades couldn't pose too much threat to the Bingkai Wushi, who was skilled in martial arts.

From the position where he stood firm to rushing in front of Da Liu, it was enough for Da Liu to fire another two or three rounds of Wind Blades or one full-power Wind Weaving Domain.

From this round, a full-power Wind Weaving Domain might be able to achieve better attack effects than Wind Blades.

"Liu Gu."

Da Liu poured Spirit Power into the willow strands, and while preparing for the Wind Weaving Domain with all his strength, he didn't forget to fire one or two Wind Blades randomly.

The power of the fired Wind Blades wasn't great, and they didn't aim at vital parts like the Bingkai Wushi's face, but stared at the legs.

The purpose was just to disturb the Bingkai Wushi's pace, making him not move forward so comfortably.

Seeing Da Liu's approach, Ge Bai nodded with satisfaction. The sparring these two days had been effective; Da Liu's fighting style was much more flexible than at the beginning.

When the Bingkai Wushi was still about two zhang away from Da Liu, Da Liu's Wind Weaving Domain aimed and fired.

The overwhelming wind net, carrying a biting wind force, attacked the Bingkai Wushi.

Seeing such a magnificent wind net for the first time, the Bingkai Wushi found that there was nowhere to hide, was a bit stunned, subconsciously stopped, pulled the blade horizontally in front of him, and prepared to resist this attack by lifting the blade like he dealt with Wind Blades.

"Don't stop, Warrior Charge."

The Bingkai Wushi's Beast Master Li Yaxin also saw the power of the Wind Weaving Domain.

Seeing her own Pet Beast stop, she clearly didn't approve of this coping method and reminded him loudly.

At this time, Li Yaxin's idea was correct. Instead of passively resisting the attack, it was better to turn into a sharp point and poke through the wind net.

Although both were resisting the attack, in that case, the damage suffered would be smaller.

But when she spoke, it was already a bit late. Even if the Bingkai Wushi reacted and took steps to charge toward the wind net again, it was too late to form enough speed and cause enough offensive power.

Ge Bai didn't care much about the contact between the Wind Weaving Domain and the Bingkai Wushi, but gave the next instruction steadily.

Expecting a Wind Weaving Domain to solve an Extraordinary-level opponent was clearly unrealistic. This match still had to be fought.

"Da Liu, Storm Willow Blade Hammer."

"Qian Dai, after the wind net makes contact, Return Horse Spear."

On the field, Ge Bai's instructions were always concise, but this didn't affect Qian Dai and Da Liu's understanding.

Just after the two sentences were finished, the Bingkai Wushi collided with the Wind Weaving Domain.

The ice armor all over his body was hit by the wind net with a strong offensive, creating deep-to-the-bone wounds, and armor fragments scattered all over the ground.

At the moment of contact, the Bingkai Wushi, who lifted the long ice blade to protect vital parts such as his face, although looking embarrassed at this time, actually didn't have much damage to his vital parts, and it didn't have much impact on his combat power.

Spirit Power circulated in his body, and the Bingkai Wushi summoned the Ice and Snow Domain in time. In the Ice and Snow Domain, the ice armor on his body completed a small-scale repair.

"Continue, close in." Although this round of confrontation suffered a small loss, the Beast Master Li Yaxin wasn't worried.

She saw clearly that the Weeping Willow on the opposite side spent a lot of time and quite a bit of Spirit Power to prepare such a high-intensity range-type attack that almost covered the whole area and couldn't be blocked.

With the Bingkai Wushi's speed, before he rushed to Da Liu's close range, he shouldn't encounter another Wind Weaving Domain.

And once the Bingkai Wushi touched Da Liu's close range, she had confidence that the Bingkai Wushi could solve Da Liu within ten moves.

Hearing the Beast Master's instruction, the Bingkai Wushi adjusted his posture, preparing to charge again.

At this time, Qian Dai's space shifting skill had already been activated.

The wind net that was originally thrown behind the Bingkai Wushi turned its direction and attacked the Bingkai Wushi again from the side and back.

"Kaibing, behind you!"

Seeing the suddenly turning wind net, Li Yaxin's pupils also shrank, and she shouted loudly behind the Bingkai Wushi, reminding him to pay attention.

While hearing the Beast Master's reminder, the Bingkai Wushi also noticed the biting wind force attacking from behind again, looked back blankly, and subconsciously lifted the long blade.

It had to be said that this Bingkai Wushi's martial arts awareness was superb. Even in such a sudden crisis scene, he could subconsciously lift the blade to resist.

This showed that he had practiced muscle memory. Although the Bingkai Wushi didn't seem to have muscles, this lift of the blade was the result of millions of times of tempering.

The blade edge met the end-of-power wind net, which was enough to consume most of the wind net's strength.

The Bingkai Wushi had just breathed a sigh of relief when he found it was too late.

Qian Dai wasn't so easy to deal with.

The wind net that had just been torn by the Bingkai Wushi turned into two pieces, and Qian Dai took the opportunity to throw the two pieces of the wind net back to the Bingkai Wushi from two different angles.

The Bingkai Wushi, who lifted the blade to solve one piece of the wind net, completely exposed his back gap to the wind net attacking from another angle.

Although this twice-teleported wind net was already at the end of its strength, Da Liu's full-force high-level skill wasn't so easy to receive either.

The armor behind the Bingkai Wushi not only had ice blocks shattered, but there were several extremely deep wounds that were faintly flowing out, ice-blue liquid.

Injured.

The Bingkai Wushi was also pushed forward by the wind wave, almost falling, and only managed to kneel on one knee after supporting himself with the long blade.

Whoosh.

The Bingkai Wushi, kneeling on one knee, bowed fiercely, couldn't help but spit out half a mouthful of ice-blue blood.

He didn't expect that this round of attack could achieve such a good effect.

Ge Bai patted Qian Dai, who was still in his arms.

"Well done."

The Bingkai Wushi, who was injured by the sneak attack, pushed the ground hard, smashed a fist heavily toward the arena in anger, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and stood up fiercely. A cold light seemed to burn in his originally deep pupils.

"Kaibing, calm down, charge again."

The Bingkai Wushi's Beast Master also knew that his Pet Beast was very angry right now.

The Bingkai Wushi, who upheld the spirit of Bushido, couldn't accept such an attack from behind.

But he couldn't see it. The Beast Master Li Yaxin standing behind him sighed helplessly.

She had only contracted with the Bingkai Wushi for a year or so. During this short time, she had only focused on teaching him martial arts and tempering his martial spirit, which seemed to be a bit too much, and he was a bit silly from being fooled by Bushido.

In fact, on the arena, the attack group of Ge Bai and the others was really standard, at most a bit tricky in angle, not even counting as a sneak attack. Li Yaxin really didn't dare to imagine how her Bingkai Wushi would fight if he encountered dark-type or nether-type assassins.
