Chapter 166: Pulling Li Wu

Chapter 166: Pulling Li Wu



Hm, the reason Fang Bai's baby griffin flew backward was that it was hit by a spray of salt soda from Xiao Jinyu.

In theory, a wind-attribute griffin, skilled in flying and with a speed boost, shouldn't be so easily hit by a spray of salt soda.

But who knew that Xiao Jinyu was exceptionally proficient at spraying. When she aimed, she hit, and the baby griffin couldn't dodge, being directly sprayed back.

"Garbage!"

Seeing this, Li Wu was even more disappointed than Fang Bai.

He had been hoping that the baby griffin could wear down Xiao Jinyu a bit. Even if the baby griffin accidentally lost, it wouldn't matter because he and Xiao Jinyu were already bound by a contract. Only if he, Li Wu, was defeated would it be a problem.

So, he wasn't afraid of others defeating Xiao Jinyu; those who would be frustrated would be the ones who defeated her. What he feared was Xiao Jinyu attacking him later.

He had a bad feeling that he might get beaten up!

He couldn't help but recall how Su Lan had been pecked by his bird and bitten by a dog, looking utterly miserable. Li Wu definitely didn't want to experience that.

Whether his premonition would come true was unclear, but the word "garbage" stung Fang Bai's ears.

But he couldn't argue back.

After all, his attempt to show off had backfired, and no matter what he said now wouldn't help. He could only vent his anger on his summoned beast.

"Get up!

Use Cyclone Wind Blade!"

At Fang Bai's command, the baby griffin, which had just been sprayed back and managed to stand up, spread its wings and gathered power. A dozen or so Cyclone Wind Blades shot toward Xiao Jinyu.

This attack was formidable.

It was already an advanced skill, and with the boost from its bloodline power, its power had reached the Boss 1 Star level.

Seeing this, Li Wu couldn't help but feel a bit worried.

Would Xiao Jinyu be sliced?

However, it turned out that Li Wu's worry was unnecessary.

A golden energy shield appeared around Xiao Jinyu, blocking the attack. As it blocked the attack, it sprayed another jet of water.

Then, the baby griffin was sprayed back again.

This time, the baby griffin was hit even harder, crashing to the ground and unable to stand up.

In just three rounds, a Silver Grade summoned beast, after using its ultimate skill, was defeated at the Boss level.

This left everyone around stunned.

Xiao Jinyu was only about the size of a palm, with a strength level of Elite, and seemingly not even three stars. How could she be so terrifying? Could a high school student with a Boss-level summoned beast really defeat her?

However, the few leaders above had noticed something.

"That's not Xiao Jinyu's true strength. She's borrowing the power of the summoned beasts behind her. We need to cut off her connection to them, or we won't be able to defeat her!"

Xu Tian noticed something was wrong and was about to sever Xiao Jinyu's connection to the dozen or so minions behind her, but Zhu Qing stopped him.

"We didn't notice it at first. Cutting the connection now would be unfair to those who have already tried. If you cut the connection, they would have to start over."

Clearly, he was giving Fang Bai another chance.

At this moment, the young man on the dragon spoke calmly, "Let it be. This is fine!"

No one dared to oppose him.

Thus, the attempt to capture Xiao Jinyu, or rather, the process of getting beaten up, began.

Even Fang Bai, who had left in a sorry state, couldn't help but watch as others went through the same.

The next participants, numbers 3 to 6, entered the final arena and were quickly defeated, none able to withstand a second attack.

It wasn't until number 7, Xu Yang, entered that things got a bit more interesting. He was better prepared than Fang Bai and managed to last two rounds before being defeated.

With number 7, Xu Yang, defeated, it was now Li Wu's turn as number 8.

He was even more anxious now. He could feel Xiao Jinyu's mood becoming more agitated. He was certain that when he entered, he would be beaten.

So, he was a bit nervous and sought advice from Wang Jun.

"Hey, why don't you go first?"

Wang Jun looked at Li Wu and smiled without a word. With no other choice, Li Wu touched his nose and, with a hesitant step, approached Xiao Jinyu.

The closer he got, the more he felt Xiao Jinyu's tail twitching.

He could vaguely sense that Xiao Jinyu might really be preparing to attack him.

This made Li Wu feel both wronged and anxious.

He walked slower and slower, and it took him three minutes to cover the twenty meters, making those watching him impatient.

Fang Bai, who had just failed to show off, directly confronted him, "Can you hurry up? You have no hope of capturing it anyway. What are you stalling for?

Facing it head-on is one blow; trying to avoid it won't help; it's still one blow!"

Li Wu was immediately annoyed, "Who told you I can't capture it?

I'll tell you, it's my summoned beast!"

Stirred by Fang Bai's words, Li Wu was no longer nervous. With his little skeleton in tow, he walked boldly toward Xiao Jinyu's final arena, exuding a sense of determination.

Yes, that's right; in Fang Bai's eyes, Li Wu was just going in to get beaten up.

Not just Li Wu, but everyone present, except for the leaders, was just there to be fodder for Xiao Jinyu.

After eight matches, they had all seen Xiao Jinyu's true strength.

Although her level was only Elite 2 Star, her combat power was definitely at the Boss level, possibly even reaching Boss 3 Star.

Such a being was impossible for them to defeat.

However, Fang Bai and the others weren't completely discouraged, as the leaders had told them that Xiao Jinyu's strength came from a special skill. They would have to wait until they all lost this round.

As soon as they figure out how to disable the Little Goldfish's special skill, they'll try again. Fang Bai feels hopeful about that.

So now, he's eagerly waiting for Lu Wu to quickly deliver the kill.

They aren't a match for the Little Goldfish, and Lu Wu only has that one little skeleton? Isn't that just asking to get eliminated?

Sure enough, Lu Wu has just entered, and he's already flying out.

Fang Bai is thrilled when he sees this.

"Lu Wu is flying out, number 9 is defeated, switch... wait, why is Lu Wu flying out?"

Fang Bai is a bit dazed, and Lu Wu is even more confused.

On one hand, he realizes he's been pulled out from inside and thrown over ten meters away, seemingly without a scratch.

On the other hand, there's the Little Goldfish's attribute.

...

Name: Little Goldfish (First Evolution)



Strength: 2-Star (Elite)



In 6, 9, 1, and 9, the book is a mistake-free version!

Status: Extremely Angry (The Little Goldfish wants to draw Lu Wu, it wants to draw so many times!!!)



Weakness: None

Basic Skills: Swinging (Mastered), Glowing (Mastered), Lighting (Mastered), Melting (Mastered), Water Arrow (Mastered)



Advanced Skills: A Sip of Salt Soda (Mastered) (Special Advanced Water Spell, with Lock-on Attack function)



Draw Lu Wu (Master) (A skill awakened because the Little Goldfish wants to draw Lu Wu. The force is controlled by the heart, so it can draw however it wants.)



PS: Let it practice drawing often, and the skill might even level up!

PS: Effective below Lord tier, can only increase by one star above Lord tier

Master of the Water Tribe (Active Skill) - Can recruit minions by defeating water-type Summoned Beasts.

【Basic Spell Enhancement】【Water Spell Power Boost】

???

Explanation: This is a Little Goldfish that you locked in a closet for several days. After it hatched, you left it in Spring City, and now it has come with its minions to draw you.

When Lu Wu sees these attributes, he's stunned.

Even though he had already tried to overestimate this little guy's strength, he never expected it to be so terrifying.

Especially the talents Son of the Ocean and Master of the Water Tribe.

These are not just talents; they're outright cheats!

With these two talents, the Little Goldfish's combat power can directly reach Boss-level. This level of strength is truly frightening.

Apparently, it hasn't even used its full power until now.

Although this strength heavily relies on the environment, once it's away from the ocean and its minions, the Little Goldfish's power will be diminished.

But even then, the Little Goldfish is still quite terrifying.

Two advanced spells, one of which is a Master-level skill.

You should know, Lu Wu has only seen two skills at the Master-level of proficiency so far, and the previous one was Su Lan's family dog's Demolish Home, a quirky skill.

Unlike his Little Goldfish's Master-level skill, well, it's called Draw Lu Wu, a quirky name, but it's full of love for him, right?

Lu Wu reads the explanation again.

He's even more confused. Was this little guy locked in a closet for several months? How didn't he know about this?

When did he abandon this cute little one?

Lu Wu feels wronged and especially aggrieved. He really doesn't remember doing this.

He sees the Little Goldfish inside, which drew him once, then ignored the Little Skeleton and directly jumped out of the water to the edge of the Final Arena, with its eyes fixed on the circle, looking aggrieved, wronged, and also expectant, wanting to draw him again.

Lu Wu thinks he should explain things clearly.

So, he crawls to the edge of the Final Arena arranged by the adults and speaks to the Little Goldfish across the circle.

The Little Goldfish tries several times to draw Lu Wu but fails, and its state immediately changes: Come in!

"I won't go in, you'll draw me if I do!"

Lu Wu shakes his head vigorously, racking his brains to think of how to soothe the Little Goldfish.

"Little Goldfish, listen to me, I didn't intentionally leave you behind. It's... it's... it's that thing!"

After much stuttering, Lu Wu finally sees the Little Skeleton and shifts the blame to it: "Actually, I wanted to open the closet and bring you with me that day, but the Little Skeleton ran out in a hurry, so I didn't open the closet door. It's all the Little Skeleton's fault! You draw it!"

This heartless guy is just trying to avoid getting drawn himself by blaming the bewildered Little Skeleton next to him.

The innocent Little Goldfish is confused, turning to look at the Little Skeleton. Its head tilts as if pondering Lu Wu's words.

Just then, the young man beside the Dragon suddenly gives a light nudge with his hand, and Lu Wu is pushed into the Final Arena, right in front of the Little Goldfish.

At this moment, the man and the fish stare at each other, and the Little Goldfish's tail begins to stir.

Lu Wu doesn't give up, struggling: "Um, listen to my explanation..."

"Huff!"

Yes, he's drawn out of the arena.

The Little Goldfish has learned its lesson and doesn't draw Lu Wu out of the Final Arena. Instead, it keeps him within the circle, drawing him back and forth like a ball...

...

Thanks to [Slight Whisper], [I'm a Monster], and [Young Master Mo of Shen Mansion] for the rewards.

Ah, an early update.
