Chapter 35: Great Strength Mouse! Rattler Tail Strike!
Chapter 35: Great Strength Mouse! Rattler Tail Strike!
Early the next morning.
Wang Che arrived at the Stadium full of energy.
After two days of Soul Pet Battle, Wang Che realized that Green Caterpillar had improved its Soul Power Cultivation very quickly these past two days.
Plus, it practiced Beast Origin Art every night, gaining four or five years of soul power cultivation each day.
At the same time, this child’s Spiritual Intelligence and other aspects also improved quite fast.
Especially its physical fitness, which had also made good progress.
‘Soul Pet Battle really helps a Soul Pet grow. No wonder every War Zone holds various Soul Pet Battle competitions.’
Wang Che thought to himself.
During these two days, Green Caterpillar’s Soul Power Cultivation also broke through to eighty years.
Reaching a hundred years was a big hurdle for a Soul Pet.
Besides that, because of the Life Soul Pact, Wang Che himself had also improved a bit.
It vaguely allowed him to slightly sense the power hidden within his soul.
That might be the power of the Martial Soul.
When he arrived at the Stadium, he found that there were even more people today.
“Thirteen advance to seven, with one lucky person getting a bye. Then seven advance to four, with another bye. After that, the four finalists compete for the top two spots. Finally, the championship match.”
Wang Che calmed his mind and went to the waiting area.
With two chances for a bye, the probability was actually not that small in theory.
Not long after, the battle order for the matches was announced.
Wang Che was quite lucky. Although he didn’t get a bye, the opponent he faced seemed relatively weak.
His opponent’s Soul Pet was a Great Strength Mouse.
Great Strength Mouse was an Earth Type Soul Pet, a Rare Soul Pet, and was best at strength-based attacks.
Its strength was so great that it could even lift rocks several times heavier than its own body.
Its sharp claws could cut through steel bars.
In this aspect, it could rival some Ultra-Rare Soul Pets.
However, its appearance and look were not very likable.
Its fur was jet black, its two claws looked a bit like fierce talons, and its body shape resembled a standing pear. It could run on all fours or walk upright.
Among the Rare Soul Pets at the infant stage, it was a very good choice.
But because its appearance was too fierce and ugly, it was not very popular.
Many students, even if they bought Rare Soul Pet eggs, would not choose it.
Even though its price was much lower compared to other Rare Soul Pets.
“For Soul Pets, this is also a world that judges by looks.”
Wang Che shook his head inwardly.
“Wang Che! Your first match today is against a Great Strength Mouse. This kind of Soul Pet has extremely great strength, and it’s a Rare Soul Pet. Your Green Caterpillar can’t compare. Teacher suggests you directly use the Silk Spitting Soul Skill. While it uses its sharp claws to cut the silk threads, slowly wear it down!”
In the class group chat.
Teacher Zheng sent a private message.
Probably feeling that Wang Che had a chance to reach the finals, Teacher Zheng couldn’t hold back his excitement and personally gave some advice.
“That’s all I will say. You are very smart, I believe you can defeat this Great Strength Mouse.” Teacher Zheng added another sentence.
“Thank you, teacher.” Wang Che replied.
The advice Teacher Zheng gave was clearly the result after calculating the strength of both sides.
Teacher Zheng’s advice was actually quite sound.
Because Great Strength Mouse was different from Spiny Gull.
Spiny Gull had strong attack and high speed, but its defense was very poor.
As long as you found the key point, Green Caterpillar could take it down with one simple tail swipe.
But Great Strength Mouse was different.
This thing had thick skin and rough flesh; its defense wasn’t strong, but its physique was very outstanding.
Trying to take it down instantly was naturally very difficult.
From Teacher Zheng’s perspective, slowly wearing it down was indeed the best choice.
But Wang Che did not want to do it that way.
Soon, the match began.
Wang Che brought Green Caterpillar onto the stage. After the previous two days of matches, he had attracted quite a few followers with his strong (handsome) power (looks).
In every match, the cheers from the audience were the loudest for him.
“Your Green Caterpillar is very impressive.”
His opponent was a young boy.
The top student from Zone U.
His looks could be said to be very average.
Even, a bit ugly.
“Thanks for the compliment.” Wang Che nodded.
He was actually quite curious; human genes in this world had evolved quite well.
It was rare to see people who were ugly-looking.
“But it stops here.”
The opponent smiled, and the smile, combined with his face, looked a bit creepy.
Wang Che glanced at that Great Strength Mouse, then looked at this opponent.
Then he looked at Green Caterpillar.
He couldn’t help but say: “Look, that person’s Soul Pet and Soul Pact Master match so well. Look at you, are you worthy of me?”
Green Caterpillar: “T^T”
This indirect counterattack made the opponent’s face change slightly, and his eyes gained a bit more fierceness.
One’s face reflects one’s heart. Wang Che could tell just by looking at this person that he was probably ruthless and cruel, and his heart might be somewhat twisted.
Of course, that might not be entirely the case.
However, in the previous rounds, Wang Che had seen this guy’s matches.
His moves were quite ruthless, and the injuries of his opponents’ Soul Pets were extremely severe. They basically could hardly participate in the next round.
They had no choice but to withdraw.
At that moment, the referee waved the flag:
“Battle begin!”
That young boy immediately said: “Great Strength Mouse, use Claw Sharpening!”
Sharpening Claws was a regular Ten-Year Soul Skill.
It could increase the power of both claws and improve the attack strength.
It was an auxiliary type of Soul Skill.
Great Strength Mouse roared twice, and its front claws began to glow with a faint white light. Its sharp claws crossed, and at that moment, they seemed like shining steel, extremely sharp.
“Once the Sharpening Claws Soul Skill is used, even the silk threads spat by Green Caterpillar, no matter how tough, can be easily cut!”
“No wonder this guy is so confident!”
“The strength attack of Great Strength Mouse is comparable to some Ultra-Rare Soul Pets, and the biggest manifestation is that the power of these claws accounts for at least sixty percent or more!”
“Yesterday, there was a Vine Grass whose body was directly cut in half. Thankfully, this guy didn’t dare to break the rules and didn’t actually kill that Vine Grass. But that Vine Grass will need at least a week to barely recover.”
“In this competition, in terms of brutality, this Great Strength Mouse with over sixty years of Soul Power Cultivation is definitely number one.”
…
The audience discussed among themselves.
At the same time, Green Caterpillar also moved.
What surprised many people was that it did not use the Silk Spitting Soul Skill.
Instead… it charged directly toward Great Strength Mouse.
Like a green streak of light, it fearlessly rushed toward Great Strength Mouse.
This scene stunned many people.
Even its opponent was taken aback.
Because in his calculations, the best choice for his opponent facing his Great Strength Mouse should have been to use the Silk Spitting Soul Skill to restrict it.
Charging straight forward against a high-health, high-attack Great Strength Mouse—wasn’t that just asking for death?
“If you want a head-on clash, perfect!”
A sharp glint flashed in the boy’s eyes. “Great Strength Mouse, don’t be afraid, hold steady and finish it off with one claw!”
While Great Strength Mouse was sharpening its claws, Green Caterpillar had already charged over.
Great Strength Mouse naturally had no time to dodge.
Wang Che narrowed his eyes, calculating the distance without showing any expression.
Before the match, he had already laid out a strategy for Green Caterpillar.
Once it started, he didn’t even need to give orders.
When it was a few meters away from Great Strength Mouse, Green Caterpillar suddenly leaped into the air.
Its tail began to glow with a somewhat dazzling light.
Everyone who saw this was slightly stunned.
Like a fierce dragon swinging its tail, Green Caterpillar whipped its tail like a steel whip toward Great Strength Mouse’s head.
The Soul Power fluctuations even created faint, invisible waves.
Just as Great Strength Mouse raised its steel-like front claws, the glowing tail had already arrived.
Crack!
A crisp sound rang out.
Great Strength Mouse’s sharp, steel-like front claws snapped into two pieces!
The tail, carrying immense force, continued unabated and struck Great Strength Mouse directly on the head!
With a loud bang, Great Strength Mouse’s sturdy body fell to the ground!
It was a critical hit!
After falling, its body was even thrown over ten meters away by the remaining force!
One could imagine the terrifying power of that tail strike!
