The Ascension of Contracted Spirits

Chapter 371 - 182: Turtle School Qi Wave_3

In addition to "Elemental Burst", magicians also have active abilities like "Elemental Charm" that can help them resist attacks.

Without any suspense, Xiao Mi, who was adept at both offense and defense, crushed Huo Xin with an overwhelming advantage. Victory was clinched within just five minutes.

"Ugh..."

Huo Xin, clutching his stomach and vomiting blood, drew angry stares from a considerable number of students of the Canghai Pavilion.

Xiao Mi showed no mercy in her attack, with virtually no intention of showing leniency.

She only chose to dodge vital parts such as the head and heart. As for the rest, she tortured him as much as possible.

Yan Xuehui’s emotionless gaze gradually grew cold.

With a slight upward movement of her foot, she was about to enter the arena.

You Jin reached out to stop her, gently shaking his head and saying:

"No, although you control the element of wood, which can restrain earth."

"Your ranking is still not as good as hers. As an E-ranked Magic Apprentice, facing a D-ranked Magician, it’s not easy to achieve victory."

"Let me go instead, I have an eighty percent chance of defeating her, just leave it to me."

Yan Xuehui’s eyes reflected shifting lights as she ultimately withdrew her raised foot.

After Jie Shu, the Mentor from Tianyafu Residence, removed the severely injured Huo Xin, You Jin leaped onto the battlefield, declaring firmly:

"Canghai Pavilion, Fourth of the Ten Talents — Martial Monk!"

"My nickname represents my role, whether you can defeat me or not depends on your ability."

With those words, You Jin’s Contracted Spirit Fond Spirit revealed its true form.

It was a creamy white giant turtle, its shell large enough to accommodate five individuals.

"Turtle! Turtle!"

The giant turtle, upon seeing its master, excitedly teared up.

You Jin stroked its neck, responding to its affection.

"What kind of turtle is this? Its color looks so high-grade."

"Ah... I heard the mentors talking over there, it seems to be a ’Guarding Turtle’, a kind of rare demon beast..."

"There’s not much information on its abilities, as the mentors were quite vague. We can only make our own observations and assumptions, then make judgments on the spot..."

Ye Hanjun, who had been silent, lit up.

The shell of the Guarding Turtle was as clean as jade, giving people an initial impression of sanctity.

But the skills of this kind of demon beast are unconventional.

If one judges incorrectly, and launches some wrong attacks, Xiao Mi’s chances of winning would drop to nearly zero.

"Start the fight!"

Xiong Tao became a bit more serious.

Previous fights were merely child’s play. Now, the third Battle Axe met with the fourth of the Ten Talents. The quality of the battle was definitely top-notch.

Whether they could demonstrate the strength of Tianyafu Residence depended on these key battles.

"Awoo!"

The Mud Big Mouth let out a yell and followed its master into the mud.

They burrowed underground, continuously changing positions, giving the enemy a fear of the unknown and seeking the most favorable moment to strike.

"Dai, stay where you are!"

"Turtle! Turtle!"

The Guarding Turtle nodded twice, withdrawing its neck and then its feet.

In an instant, there remained only a large white turtle shell in the middle of the battlefield. You Jin adopted a nonchalant attitude, sitting cross-legged on top of it, closing his eyes.

"Humming-"

A layer of pale golden light swam on You Jin’s body surface.

Those with discerning eyes could identify that this was the D-ranked Martial Monk’s active ability, "Golden Bell Cover".

As long as he maintained this state, the Patron’s own defense was astonishing.

Breaking through it with one or two attacks from a contracted spirit of the same rank, hitting the flesh and blood, was definitely no easy task.

"Tear!"

The muddy ground split open, and the white jade turtle shell, along with You Jin on its back, suddenly sunk into the ground.

The corners of Ye Hanjun’s mouth raised slightly, with only one thought in his mind — Xiao Mi’s chances of victory were now less than ten percent!

Indeed, as mud covered them, the battlefield returned to a death-like silence, as if nothing had happened at all.

The Guarding Turtle was inherently a special kind of defensive counterattack casting demon beast. You Jin was protected by the ’Golden Bell Cover’ and could restore his physical strength and energy through ’meditation’.

No matter who fought against him, if it were a match of endurance, it would be like an egg hitting a rock, self-inflicted suffering.

"Boom!!"

There was a muffled noise and the earth trembled.

A battle ensued in the depths beneath, which was beyond the view of onlookers.

Others may perceive it vaguely, but Ye Hanjun clearly detected that Mud Big Mouth, under the direction of Xiao Mi, began an attack.

Besides ’Mud Missile’, Mud Big Mouth also had other skills like ’Self-sacrifice Mud clash’, ’Muddy’, ’Rotting Mud Burial’.

Currently, it appeared that the ’Rotting Mud Burial’ was triggered. Xiao Mi planned to flood those mud missiles into the shell of the Guarding Turtle and then used ’Rotting Mud Conversion’ to block the breathing system of the Guarding Turtle with hardened mud, thereby simultaneously weakening its perception.

This response was well-considered and effective.

However, from Ye Hanjun’s perspective, Xiao Mi had underestimated the situation.

While the Guarding Turtle and other turtle-based Fond Spirits had some similarities, they were largely different.

Its ’holding of breath’ wasn’t just for self-protection but also a way of amassing energy.

If the turtle shell was damaged by impact but not penetrated, the energy gathered would become stronger and more explosive.

Once it was released, that would be the moment of deciding victory and defeat, and outsiders could hardly intervene.

"Bang! Boom boom boom!"

"Ahh woo! Ahh woo! Ahh woo!!"

Underground, Mud Big Mouth gradually progressed from tentative attacks to full-fledged onslaughts.

With the adding effect of the master’s ’Elemental Burst’, it used ’Self-sacrifice Mud Clash’, attempting to break the turtle shell.

This attack was powerful enough to crack stones. While it was impossible for the Guarding Turtle to fully block it, only minor cracks appeared on its shell.

However, it was limited to this. You Jin maintained his stance of allowing the attacks, ensuring only his own safety, unconcerned about how Xiao Mi attacked.

"Bang! Boom! Bang bang! Boom boom!"

The blocking of mud, the heavy bombardment...The intensity of the attack had many mentors wiping their sweat, worrying about the outcome between Xiao Mi and You Jin.

This battle lasted for fifteen minutes. Just as the ’Golden Bell Cover’ shattered and reformed repeatedly, and You Jin had already suffered some injuries, he suddenly opened his eyes and forcefully slapped his palm onto the turtle shell.

Active Ability - ’Qi Strength Infusion’!

As a Martial Monk possessed ’Qi Force’, his constitution was extraordinary.

With this active ability, Qi Strength would augment the Contracted Spirit Fond Spirits’ body, and then, similar to ’Elemental Burst’, it would explode with a stronger attack.

"Turtle!!"

The Guarding Turtle was hit continuously and was holding a grudge.

Realizing that the time was right, it poked its head out, the radiance of its body was immense.

In an instant, a compressed light ball appeared in its mouth, spinning rapidly and stirring the surrounding airflow.

"Puff!!"

The next moment, the light ball was shot out, a light beam five to six meters wide and a hundred meters long, shattering all the mud and crushed stones, charging towards Mud Big Mouth in a manner that was unyielding and unstoppable.

The Guarding Turtle’s strongest racial skill - ’Turtle School Qi Wave’!

After being augmented by ’Qi Strength Infusion’, it was like a fish in water and a tiger with wings, would produce a far more powerful effect than the other bolstered skills!!

"Ahh woo!!!"

Mud Big Mouth roared, unable to dodge in time.

It attempted to erect a mud wall to resist the impact of the light beam.

But the reality was cruel.

The total number of attacks it had encountered before, and the anger it had accumulated, all burst forth in that one beam of light.

Xiao Mi’s face changed drastically!!

Even though she had an ’Elemental Charm’ attached to her, she felt no sense of security.

Mud Big Mouth roared aloud, blocking its master like a small mountain of meat.

Xiong Tao, suspended in mid-air, let out a sigh. The Skeleton Eagle under him swooped downwards, cutting off half the power of the shockwave with a swipe of its wings.

"Getting hit with full strength, either Mud Big Mouth or Xiao Mi will be left crippled."

"This round goes to Canghai Pavilion, with Tianyafu Residence admitting defeat..."

Bursting lights scattered everywhere, the audience was silent.
