Chapter 152: Bone Pig
Chapter 152: Bone Pig
Jiang Bei Feng left the scene with a carefree stride.
However, not long after, his expression turned bitter.
"Damn it, this is too much. I've taken risks to this extent, and he still managed to win?" Jiang Bei Feng felt like the whole world was ganging up on him.
"This is getting too intense. I can't let this continue; my little heart can't take it anymore!"
It took Jiang Bei Feng a while to calm himself down, and the first thing he did was to gather Team 001.
When Jiang Bei Feng found Team 001, the match between Team 018 and Team 038 had already concluded.
Team 001 was already aware of the outcome and, understanding Jiang Bei Feng's likely mood, they immediately offered words of comfort.
"Teacher Jiang, you've done all that you could. This result isn't your fault but rather due to Team 018's incompetence. Despite having a strong hand, they still managed to lose. They've let you down."
Jiang Bei Feng waved his hand, "It's not entirely their fault; it's also my problem. I focused on the wrong things. If I had spent my energy on preparing for the match instead of trying to hinder Lu Wu, this result wouldn't have happened."
"This is a lesson for me and for you as well. Remember, those underhanded methods are ultimately wrong. What truly decides everything is the match itself and your own strength!"
It was hard to tell if Jiang Bei Feng had genuinely come to this realization or was just making polite conversation. But regardless, his words were quite impressive.
At the very least, as devoted followers of Teacher Jiang, Team 001 felt that their teacher had gained a newfound enlightenment.
However, Team 042's lack of understanding was unacceptable. With such a great teacher offering such favorable conditions, their refusal and subsequent actions were ungrateful.
With this thought, Team 001's indignation rose, "Teacher Jiang, rest assured. Team 042's journey ends here. From now on, we'll take matters into our own hands. You know our strength, and we can definitely eliminate them before the quarterfinals."
"I called you here to discuss this very matter. To ensure there are no mishaps, before your match with Team 042, I want you to follow me. I will guide you in thoroughly studying Team 042. No matter what, we cannot let today's events repeat themselves!"
Jiang Bei Feng couldn't bear the thought of losing, especially with five thousand points on the line. Therefore, despite his absolute confidence in Team 001, given his recent setback, his character dictated that he would give it his all.
Team 001, although unsure of the necessity, realized the benefit of receiving personal guidance from Teacher Jiang Bei Feng.
Thus, not long after Team 018's match, Team 001 and Jiang Bei Feng began an in-depth analysis of Lu Wu's team.
They gathered all of Lu Wu's matches from the league and studied them meticulously.
After an entire day of research, they finally had some results, and Jiang Bei Feng promptly summarized their findings.
"Based on their matches and various information, their strength is indeed far inferior to yours. All three of their Summoned Beasts are Elite Rank 1, while yours are mostly Elite Rank 2. Zhuang Yan's Great Boulder is nearly Elite Rank 3. In terms of strength, they are utterly outclassed."
"Therefore, to defeat you, they must first rule out direct confrontation. They know they can't win in a head-on clash. Moreover, from the battles with Teams 038 and 018, Lu Wu excels in tactics and exploiting weaknesses. I estimate that in their fight against you, they will prepare a custom strategy tailored to counter you specifically. Moving forward, our research focus should be on understanding their perspective and how they would approach the battle..."
With this, Jiang Bei Feng led Team 001 in a comprehensive study.
At the same time, Li Wu was also busy with his own preparations for the upcoming battle, feeling the pressure just like Jiang Beifeng.
He had studied the attributes of the opposing team's Summon Beasts and was well aware of the challenge ahead.
"Their Summon Beasts are incredibly strong, and apart from the final Woodman, my side doesn't have any means to counter their attributes. Plus, their overwhelming raw power puts us at a significant disadvantage. It's going to be extremely difficult to defeat them."
"However, due to the tight timeframe and the difficulty of the task, I've decided to prioritize and rule out strategic planning. While these are important, I simply don't have the luxury of time to fuss over such things. Right now, my focus is on utilizing the limited time to enhance the strength of my Summon Beasts as much as possible, ensuring we can match them in a head-on clash, or even overpower them."
As he spoke, Li Wu began his routine of brewing a soup.
This time, the soup wasn't for the Skeleton but for the three pigs that belonged to the Skeleton.
In the 16th book of the 9th volume of the 1st edition, a significant change was about to take place.
The materials Li Wu had purchased with 2000 in-game credits had arrived, allowing him to start brewing the soup.
If this pot of soup turned out well, the three pigs would advance to the Elite Rank, giving Li Wu the power to not only match but potentially overpower his opponents.
Soon, Li Wu finished brewing an unprecedentedly large pot of soup.
Afterward, he instructed the Skeleton to herd the three pigs into the giant pot.
This was the first time the pigs were entering the soup, and the Skeleton found it quite novel.
The Skeleton had its own thoughts about this massive pot of soup.
Knowing that every time it bathed in the soup, it grew stronger, it now felt an urge to jump into the soup, startling Li Wu.
"You're not allowed in there! If you go in, you can forget about getting a new phone!"
Li Wu was curious to see what would happen if the Skeleton and the pigs bathed together, but he dared not take such a risk. If something went wrong, he wouldn't even have a place to cry.
So, without full confidence, Li Wu would never allow the Skeleton and the pigs to bathe together.
Even if he did, he wouldn't use his own Skeleton for such an experiment.
Li Wu had initially planned to have the Skeleton keep an eye on the three pigs, but fearing that the little guy might sneak into the soup when he wasn't looking, he had no choice but to keep the Skeleton by his side.
With the Skeleton in tow, Li Wu headed to Lin Jian Ying's place to administer another injection to the Goblin.
This was the eighth injection Li Wu had given to the Goblin, and while its attribute quality had improved from Common to Black Iron, there was still no significant change.
Li Wu knew it wasn't an issue with his injections or the Goblin's potential; they simply lacked a crucial trigger.
"Ideally, the Goblin will undergo its transformation before the match. If not, I hope the pressure of the match against Team 001 will provide that trigger and force its evolution."
After injecting the Goblin, Li Wu and the Skeleton returned to the pot of soup.
By the time they arrived, the three pigs had almost finished bathing in the soup.
Li Wu took a quick glance, and the attributes of the pigs appeared before him:
Name: White Bone Boar
Rank: 0-Star (Elite)
Attributes: Undead, Bone
Quality: Black Iron (Enhanced)
Status: Satisfied (Soup tastes amazing)
Weakness: Light, Flame
Skills: Boar Charge (Mastered), Bone Armor (Mastered), Bone Shot (Mastered), Defensive Stance (Mastered)
Description: A pseudo-elite Summon Beast, stronger than common Summon Beasts but still inferior to true Elite-ranked beasts.
