Chapter 97: Chapter 40 Eagle Strike in the Vast Sky (Seeking Investment and Follow-up Reads)_2
"Calm the winds!" the middle-aged Beast Tamer thought in alarm, almost instantly issuing a new command.
His heart was full of dread.
Frost Resistance, Frost Eyes, a single Snow Trace had actually mastered such a combination.
Whose long-distance output was so reckless?
The Green Feathered Eagle shrieked; a faint blue glow rapidly formed around it, and when the Frost Storm made contact with the glow, it seemed to pause and no longer move, the enveloping frost snow also seemed to lose its force and fell straight to the ground.
Wind series teaching skill: Calm the Winds.
Seeing this through the energy that had just dissipated, Lin Su's face suddenly darkened.
He feared this the most.
This Green Feathered Eagle could actually calm the winds!
This skill was similar to Frost Resistance, a defensive skill, but it could only defend against certain specific skills, making it somewhat less useful in many situations.
Its effect was that any air movement that came into contact with that layer of light screen would directly pause.
However, this skill perfectly countered the Frost Storm.
The storm stopped, the frost flowers lost their momentum, and the only damage it could bring to the opponent was the cold air, which under Calm the Winds, lost at least ninety percent of its potency!
The icy cold penetrated rapidly into the body of the Green Feathered Eagle from the paused storm, causing it to shiver uncontrollably. It hurriedly flapped its wings and shot up from the ground, soaring high into the sky, reaching an altitude of several tens of meters in the blink of an eye.
At such a distance, the Frost Storm could only slightly affect the opponent, unable to inflict any significant damage.
Lin Su smiled wryly.
No chance now.
If the opponent didn't have the Calm the Winds skill, that combo just now would definitely have severely injured the opponent.
"Young man, that was really close." The middle-aged Beast Tamer took a deep breath and smiled, "But I think your Snow Trace has used so many skills continuously, it can probably only use Frost Storm one more time, right? With this distance, Frost Storm won't affect my Green Feathered Eagle much. Are you going to concede, or what?"
After a moment of silence, Lin Su asked softly, "Qiuqiu, do we keep fighting?"
"Meow! (◣_◢)" (Fight!)
"Then let's fight!" Lin Su laughed brightly, "Sorry, uncle, I'm not planning to concede."
"This young man." The middle-aged Beast Tamer muttered to himself, shaking his head and saying no more, quickly giving a command through Telepathy, "Wind Blade, wear down the opponent."
High above, the Green Feathered Eagle flapped its wings, sending Wind Blades toward Qiuqiu.
This was a teaching skill easily mastered by any wind-type beast, yet now it forced Qiuqiu to constantly dodge, leaving it no chance to counterattack.
Lin Su clenched his fists silently, then suddenly spoke through Telepathy.
"Qiuqiu, if you want to win, then try to break through to Stage Ⅲ Snow Trace!"
Yes, the only way to win now was to let Qiuqiu break through to Stage Ⅲ Snow Trace and master the ability to fight in the air.
Qiuqiu let out a reluctant cry and suddenly stepped on the air.
Snowflakes quickly condensed in the air under the pressure of Qiuqiu's claw and fell swiftly to the ground, causing its body to stagger due to the loss of balance and be instantly swept up by a Wind Blade.
The ice crystal petals already diminishing by its side, shattered once more.
Only the last two layers of Frost Resistance remained.
Qiuqiu didn't have many chances left to err.
Dodging the next Wind Blade, Qiuqiu didn't hesitate to lift its paw again, pressing on the air.
The Wind Blades became even more violent. From Qiuqiu's first awkward attempt to step on empty air, the middle-aged Beast Tamer instantly guessed Lin Su's intention.
Clearly, he was not planning to give Qiuqiu the chance to break through in the heat of battle.
And Qiuqiu's second attempt to step on air also ended in failure, instantly swallowed by two Wind Blades, shattering the two ice crystal petals swirling around it.
"Qiuqiu!" Lin Su couldn't help but cry out.
Qiuqiu slightly turned its head, giving him a reassuring look, and then facing the overwhelming Wind Blades, it did not hesitate to press its paw on the void again!
The next moment, countless Wind Blades devoured where Qiuqiu had been just a second ago, but a white figure soared upward, stepping on the snowflakes floating in the sky, rising into the air much faster than before!
Snow Trace, Stage Ⅲ!!!
The middle-aged Beast Tamer was startled, then quickly steadied his mind, "Feather Blade Continuous Slash! Get ready to use Calm the Winds!"
The last time that Snow Trace could use Frost Storm, it was already running low on energy.
With Feather Blade Continuous Slash, use up the opponent's last Frost Storm!
In the sky, the angered Green Feathered Eagle screamed, numerous dense Feather Blades like an impenetrable wall of blades falling rapidly toward Qiuqiu as it soared!
Frost fog obscured everything in Qiuqiu's eyes, and all the surroundings seemed to slow down at that moment.
It moved.
Moving with a speed almost invisible to the naked eye within a very limited range, Qiuqiu, like a sprite in the snow, stepped on the void, weaving through the incredibly sharp Feather Blades!
The Feather Blades were impenetrable, yet it remained completely unharmed!
The combination of level III Snow Trace and level II Snow Blow seemed to sublimate the two into something entirely new!
Perhaps it would be more appropriate to call it a secret technique!
Amid the shocked gazes of everyone, Qiuqiu, like a wraith, instantly passed through the Feather Blade Continuous Slash and quickly approached the Green Feathered Eagle.
"Fix Wind!" the middle-aged Beast Tamer commanded without hesitation.
"Hold off on Frost Storm, break through Fix Wind first!" Anticipating the opponent's command, Lin Su gave his instructions without hesitation.
Fix Wind was a layer of light membrane.
It could block the fiercest of storms but not Qiuqiu's meaty paw!
A misty blue light appeared, and a silent membrane materialized on the surface of the Green Feathered Eagle's body.
And Qiuqiu's paw, at that moment, blossomed into a spectacular ice flower, unhesitatingly piercing through the membrane and pressing towards the Green Feathered Eagle.
"Are you mad, have you gone mad?" the middle-aged Beast Tamer bellowed.
This madman, had he forgotten that beside Wind Talent Skills, the Green Feathered Eagle also possessed the powerful melee Talent Skill, tear?
How could he dare?
How could he let his beast get so close to the Green Feathered Eagle?!
"Tear!"
"Frost Storm!"
Both commands resonated simultaneously in the minds of the two beasts.
The Green Feathered Eagle screeched, its sharp claws instantly lunging towards Qiuqiu's paw, while Qiuqiu's palm, Frost Snow and the storm were gathering at an incredible speed.
"Boom!"
A loud explosion, and a wild ice storm burst forth into the sky, sending both figures flying.
Lin Su's expression changed, and he hurried forward to carefully catch Qiuqiu, who was falling from the sky.
On Qiuqiu's meaty paw, a bone-deep wound was especially conspicuous, the flesh hideously peeled back, it closed its eyes tightly in pain, body trembling and letting out faint moans, causing Lin Su's heart to ache sharply.
"You madman!" Not far away, the middle-aged Beast Tamer who had also caught his own beast spoke angrily, "All this for a meal's cost?"
"You win!" Holding his beast tenderly, he quickly retracted it into the Beast Taming Space for recuperation.
There were no healing expertise beasts here, they need to find a place to treat the beasts urgently.
Fully receiving a direct hit from a level II Frost Storm, the Green Feathered Eagle's injuries were worse than Qiuqiu's.
Lin Su did not respond.
If it really were just for the cost of this meal, he would have conceded long ago.
Indeed, when Qiuqiu broke through to level III Snow Trace, this fight was no longer just about a meal.
He had to win, to ensure that Qiuqiu's endurance was not in vain.
Tenderly, he retracted Qiuqiu into the Beast Taming Space and Lin Su quickly left the restaurant.
He didn't know many people, and it seemed the only beast with healing abilities was Qin Nan's Mushroom Baby.
So, he had to rush back to the hotel to find Qin Nan right away.
…
Within the dining area, Zhang Xuyang's eyes were full of shock.
With a high-ranking elite race beast, normally valued at only 399P energy, had defeated a low-ranking leader race beast close to six hundred energy.
A juvenile beast mastered a level III skill.
This unbelievable event had just unfolded before his very eyes.
At that moment, the image of that young man and another exceptional being from his own batch quietly overlapped in Zhang Xuyang's mind.
Yet another freak?!
Looking at him, he's probably from the same batch as Qingqing, right?
Then, he should also be applying to Jinghua University, right?
Thinking this, Zhang Xuyang stood up without hesitation.
He needed to establish a good relationship with this prodigy from the next batch of freshmen!
"Cousin, where are you going?" seeing Zhang Xuyang getting up to leave, Zhang Qingqing also quickly stood and couldn't help but ask.
"I'm going to talk to that guy."
"Then I'm coming too!" Zhang Qingqing grabbed her bag and spoke without hesitation.
"Aren't we going to finish our meal?" Zhang Xuyang turned his head to look at the hardly touched delicacies on the table.
"No, let's pay the bill, waiter!"
