Chapter 289 - Su Haos Sprite Ranking Competition
The headquarters of the Association of Sprite Trainers had the most comprehensive training facilities in the whole of Dragon Nation.
During the five days that Su Hao stayed here, the sprites also had a lot of fun.
Take the unique skill unique skill tester for instance, which was able to withstand a full-powered attack from Big Fat Bear without emitting any smoke
Slashing on it also felt especially textured, it could be used to sharpen Dazed Crow’s blade and feathers.
The battle venue here was also top-notch, and all facilities could be used for free.. Su Hao used this opportunity to let Ah Yan try out a battle to test its specific level.
The target of the battle was Dazed Crow.
Before the round had even started, Ah Yan had already started to attack, sending out Energy Balls one after another as though they didn’t cost anything.
“The speed at which its unique skill is used is very fast. I’ll give it a B+.. After all, it hasn’t even started training yet.”
“It’s able to control Energy Balls at the same time and make it fly out in different trajectories. I’ll give an A- for control ability.”
“Even after blasting out twelve Energy Balls, seven Ghost Claws, and cold wind that lasted for 30 seconds, the spiritual force consumption is still only less than half. I’ll give a B+ for its spiritual force storage.”
It was a pretty good evaluation among those of the same level.
It could probably take on the ‘Young Master Cattail’ of a certain school’s reserve team from a while back.
However, Ah Yan’s opponent at this moment was the Fire Crow.
Dazed Crow didn’t move. It just extended the Flaming Feather Saber and waved it forward. With a whoosh, all the Energy Balls and Ghost Claws exploded one after another, turning into black smoke and dissipating.
The sinister cold shadow wind couldn’t sway the dumb crow under the Flaming Feather Form either.
With the position it was standing at as the center, the Dumb Crow Flame Feather Blade waved, forming an absolute defense domain with a radius of two meters.
Two meters away, the energy of the explosion dyed the field grayish-black.
Everything within two meters remained normal, only slightly red under the light of the fire.
The only unique skill that Ah Yan had mastered at the moment that could hit the Dazed Crow was “Eye of Nightmare”. However, its attainments in illusion were insufficient, so it could only make the Dazed Crow shake its head in frustration.
“I don’t need any more illusions as I have Butterfly. Ah Yan doesn’t need to develop towards the illusion aspect, but..”
Su Hao suddenly thought of a battle tactic he had come up with in the past. Butterfly would pull the enemy into an illusion while Yama Ghost King would enter the illusion at the same time. They would attack from both inside and outside and give the enemy the most “comfortable” experience.
Based on the characteristics of ghost-element sprites and unique skills that they could learn, this tactic wasn’t difficult to achieve.
But he had a bolder idea.
Su Hao had already come up with Ah Yan’s own tactical system.
— Ghost Parade.
It needed to use both its “Ghost Sprite Commandeering” and “Gan Kun in the Shadow” special talents. The core of the battle tactic depended on using teamwork against a single sprite.
“But it needs to overcome several difficulties.
“Firstly, the current control of” Ghost Sprite Commandeering” on ghost-element sprites is too limited. It might be able to handle small fries, but Su Hao could never depend on them to win hard battles.”
“Secondly, Ah Yan doesn’t have any ghost brothers around here right now.”
When Su Hao was in Ghost City, he wanted to catch a few and bring them back, but he didn’t have the chance.
If only he could form a ghost team and debut them together..
“Thirdly, if Su Hao wanted to overcome the quality issue with quantity, he also needed a corresponding joint attack unique skill.”
While Su Hao was deep in thought, the Dazed Crow had already begun to counterattack. Under the Flaming Feather Form, it suddenly spread its wings and flew, arriving in front of Ah Yan in an instant. It waved its dazzling Flaming Feather Saber down.
The scorching red line spread on the ground. Ah Yan had already escaped, but with Dazed Crow’s sharp battle intuition and rich battle experience.. Ah Yan only lasted a minute before it was ultimately defeated.
The dazzling red Flaming Feather Saber stopped in front of Yama Ghost King.
Ah Yan seemed a little depressed.
Su Hao patted its.. robe. “Don’t be discouraged. If it weren’t for the limited space, you could have at least.. escape.”
Ah Yan :”..”
It quickly hid in the shadows.
With nothing better to do, Su Hao called the other sprites over for an internal battle.
Apart from Bright Night Spirit who had yet to evolve and could only give encouragement from the side, Ah Yan was.. beaten up by all the other sprites.
It couldn’t be helped. Ah Yan had too few unique skills at the moment. Profound meanings and secret techniques were all non-existent.. It was equivalent to a high tech computer with no software installed.
Its development level was also only barely at the extraordinary-level.
Among the other sprites, it was temporarily in fifth place.
“Don’t be disheartened. As long as you train hard, you’ll be able to get better.”
Ah Yan shrank into his shadow and wallowed in self pity.
Su Hao took a look and felt that this child was a little lacking in confidence. Didn’t it know that it was only eight and a half days old?
What’s the rush?
When there’s a chance in the future, I’ll get you some good experience bags to level up.
After comforting Yama Ghost King, Su Hao got the other sprites to keep fighting.
Lightning flashed, red light dazzled, and waterfalls were raised.
“The power of the unique skill of the Dumb Unicorn was slightly inferior, and it was countered by Big Fat Bear, so it could only be beaten by the bear.”
“But Big Fat Bear’s attacks kept missing the Dazed Crow due to the latter’s sharp battle instincts, and the defensive armor it was so proud of also couldn’t stand the Dazed Crow’s countless flame blades slashes.
“So the bear is weaker than the crow.”
“On the other hand..”
“Dumb Unicorn had no problem suppressing the Dazed Crow. It’s large area attacks, dozens of meter-high waves and elemental advantage gave it an upper hand against the crow.
Bear, Crow, and Unicorn formed a closed loop.
But the three of them were all no match for Butterfly. The difference was obvious.
“Up till now, Butterfly mental strength has been increasing every day for a few months. It has been a long time since it had used its full strength in battle.. Well, Butterfly doesn’t really need to rely on battles to improve itself.”
“Gurgle.”
It had a look of disdain on its face, as if it was saying, “In that case, why did you call me here so early in the morning, gurgle?”
It hugged its cell phone and leaped onto the soft seat. It leaned forward and laid on the Transformation Bead, looking dispirited.
Su Hao wanted to say something, but the dispirited Butterfly was still ahead of everyone else in the team. Moreover, its other traits were also developing completely. Su Hao was.. at a loss of words.
At this moment, the wristband vibrated.
He glanced at the information and headed for the target location.
..
The NPC who was responsible for providing the mission reward was an official from the guild headquarters.
It was a Sprite Trainer Su Hao didn’t recognize.
“After a series of calculations and deducting from the few items you took away, you will receive 2,6003 contribution points in total.”
This contribution point was similar to Whale Island University’s credits system.
But its value was higher.
The official continued, “You’ve passed the application to exchange your contribution points for a top-level treasure, the ‘Essence of the Sun’. You can still consider whether you want to spend 20,000 contribution points to redeem it.”
historical
As the Sprite Trainer spoke, he opened a suitcase. Instantly, a red light shone out, and a magnificent crystal quietly hung in the suitcase.. inside a storage ball.
As expected, Dragon Nation already had the storage ball technology.
Su Hao started to think. He observed the “Sun Essence” with his eyes and also searched through the data on the interface.
When he submitted the application, he deliberately mentioned “high quality”. The one in front of him was indeed of a higher quality than the two he had seen before. It could allow the Dazed Crow to advance perfectly.
It was just so damn expensive!
But there was no other way. No matter how high the price was, it was already pretty good to have a channel to exchange for top-grade materials.
“I’ll take it.”
After going through the process, Su Hao finally got all the gains from his trip to Ghost City.
Sun Essence x1, research items such as finished potions x5, Ghost City style ghost cultivation method x3, and 6003 Dragon Nation contribution points.
“Apart from these..” The NPC official said,” In light of your recent performance, the guild has also decided to award you with a Medal of Honor. “
