Both pets were in position.
Although she wasn't planning to command, Mingxi still stood in the corresponding command position as usual.
Fu Sushu: "Frost Snow, Freezing Wind."
Frost Odd-looking Lion-like Tiger opened its mouth and unleashed a large gust of howling cold wind towards Golden Yuanbao high in the sky.
Frost quickly spread, seemingly intent on freezing the sky itself.
The coverage area of this Freezing Wind was extremely large, and its skill proficiency would not be lower than Minor Accomplishment.
A layer of ice crystals quickly condensed on Golden Yuanbao's wings, but it merely flapped them gently, and the thin ice fell off like rustling leaves.
Fu Sushu's expression remained unchanged, "Thousand Miles of Snowfall."
As his words fell, snowflakes drifted down from the sky.
Unlike before, the moment these snowflakes touched Golden Yuanbao's body, they rapidly formed fist-sized ice lumps. ƒгeewёbnovel.com
Mingxi raised an eyebrow.
Frost Odd-looking Lion-like Tiger had actually cultivated Thousand Miles of Snowfall to Mastery, and fortunately activated the skill's hidden effect.
Skill proficiency Mastery was a watershed for skill strength.
It was because of this skill's hidden effect.
A skill's hidden effect was an additional effect /N_o_v_e_l_i_g_h_t/ that could only occur after skill proficiency reached Mastery.
For example, this Thousand Miles of Snowfall, after reaching Mastery proficiency, had a certain chance to stack an ice lump effect on top of the freezing effect of the snowflakes.
These ice lumps could not only enhance the skill's freezing ability but also continuously grow over time, thereby increasing the weight burden on the attacked target.
This had the greatest impact on Flight-type pets.
Mingxi mused, "This Fu Sushu really came prepared."
However, wasn't the skill proficiency of this Thousand Miles of Snowfall improving too quickly?
Did Fu Sushu also have a cheat?
In the sky, serene and elegant snowflakes fell like paper, as if summer had turned into winter overnight.
The snowflakes intertwined to form a giant net of ice and snow, completely enveloping Golden Yuanbao in a world of ice and snow.
"Thunder."
Golden Yuanbao activated Chasing Wind and Thunderbolt, dodging the falling snowflakes like a golden lightning bolt.
Even so, the ice lumps on its body grew more and more numerous, and larger and larger.
Soon, it began to affect its Flight speed!
Seeing this scene, Fu Sushu's heart filled with joy.
It worked!
It was worth it for him to spend years of savings to buy those two precious speed-refining pearls, thereby raising the proficiency of Thousand Miles of Snowfall to Mastery.
"Frost Snow, Blizzard."
Calculating that the skill duration of Thousand Miles of Snowfall was about to end, Fu Sushu continued to give orders.
In the last match, Frost Snow lost to Lei Yan Great Wind before even using the Blizzard skill.
This time, they were determined to let Mingxi and Lei Yan Great Wind witness their true strength.
"Woo woo—"
The wind and snow began to rage.
Snow particles, like dust, swept towards Golden Yuanbao, which was forced to lower its Flight altitude due to the ice lumps it was bearing.
It seemed that Golden Yuanbao was being suppressed.
At this moment, Lan Yue's eyes outside the arena lit up.
Her Beast Tamers had mentioned wanting her to learn this Blizzard skill, saying it might be able to combine with Big Brother's skills to form a combo skill in the future.
Not long ago, her Beast Tamers even helped her buy a Blizzard Skill Stone, but she hadn't absorbed it yet.
She currently only had Mid-Level strength, and the success rate of absorbing Advanced Level Skill Stones was very low.
However, her Beast Tamers also said that she could now observe, learn, and practice more, and perhaps she could comprehend it on her own without absorbing a Skill Stone, just like Golden Yuanbao Big Brother learned Thunderstorm back then.
Isn't this the best learning material right now?
She must watch carefully.
At this moment in the arena, Golden Yuanbao finally launched a counterattack.
Two identical Lei Yan Great Winds appeared in mid-air.
Substitute.
The Substitute, created at the cost of 1/5 of the main body's energy value, also possessed 1/5 of the main body's strength.
The next moment.
Both Lei Yan Great Winds flapped their wings simultaneously.
Tens of thousands of golden feathers transformed into a Golden Feather Whirlwind, directly confronting the roaring Blizzard.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
Each golden feather was like a drawn sharp blade, or a small bomb, and upon colliding with the snow particles in the Blizzard, they actually caused violent explosions.
More importantly, with the activation of the Golden Feather Whirlwind, the ice lumps on Golden Yuanbao's body shattered one after another.
After all, Golden Feather Whirlwind was a skill that used its own feathers as physical attack tools; the moment the feathers left its body, the ice lumps adhering to the feathers would naturally fall off.
(PS: After the golden feather attack disappears, Lei Yan Great Wind's feathers will grow back, so there's no risk of baldness.)
Mingxi nodded in satisfaction; Golden Yuanbao was quite clever.
At this moment, Fu Sushu's expression changed slightly, looking at the two Lei Yan Great Winds in the sky with surprise.
Lei Yan Great Wind had actually learned Substitute?
When did this happen?
Although shocked, Fu Sushu did not forget his current predicament.
"Thousand Miles of Snowfall."
Fu Sushu once again ordered Frost Odd-looking Lion-like Tiger to use Thousand Miles of Snowfall.
Was he preparing to use Thousand Miles of Snowfall to freeze Golden Yuanbao to death?
Mingxi shook her head.
Fu Sushu still underestimated Golden Yuanbao too much; it was not a pet that would sit by and wait for death.
Indeed.
Twelve giant thunder flowers rapidly bloomed in the arena, and violent lightning energy converged, as if to completely engulf this space.
Frost Odd-looking Lion-like Tiger was surrounded by the Thunderstorm without any power to counterattack...
The Thunderstorm at Major Accomplishment proficiency, its lethality more than doubled.
As the strongest area-of-effect skill among Advanced Level skills, a Thunderstorm at Major Accomplishment proficiency could completely instantly kill ordinary Advanced Level pets.
Even if Frost Odd-looking Lion-like Tiger had a counter-attribute, it would be impossible for it to easily cope with such an attack.
Plus, the Wing Slash simultaneously cast by the still-active Substitute.
Damage Stacking.
Frost Odd-looking Lion-like Tiger was heavily injured before it even had time to dodge.
Mingxi knew what would happen next without even looking; Frost Odd-looking Lion-like Tiger had no chance.
Losing was only a matter of time.
【Detected that the owner's Lei Yan Great Wind defeated the same-level pet Frost Odd-looking Lion-like Tiger, rewarding 10 minutes of training time at Time Realm Private Pet Training Hall.】
Fu Sushu hung his head, looking dejected: "...I lost again."
And he lost with Mingxi not participating at all.
He lost completely!
"Senior Sushu, don't worry too much. Golden Yuanbao's situation is special. Actually, your Frost Odd-looking Lion-like Tiger is already very powerful; even Thousand Miles of Snowfall is at Mastery proficiency."
Consolation wasn't the main purpose; probing was her true intention.
"Little Sister Mingxi, please don't comfort me. The reason Frost Snow could cultivate Thousand Miles of Snowfall to Mastery in a short time is because I was lucky enough to buy two speed-refining pearls."
Mingxi: "What are speed-refining pearls? Are they items?"
Although she had been studying and absorbing the knowledge of this world day and night without any slack, how could the knowledge accumulated over thousands of years be digested by her in a short time?
The accumulation of experience and knowledge was a long process.
Fu Yifan's reaction was much bigger than hers; clearly, he didn't know about the speed-refining pearls before, and his expression was extremely exaggerated, "Brother, where did you get those speed-refining pearls, and two of them? How many star coins must that have cost?"
