The Ascension of Contracted Spirits

Chapter 325 - 168: After-school homework arranged by Master Han_1

"Qiu, what do you think?"

Behind the Sonic Wall, Elder Xu ask mischievously, proceeding with his inquiry.

This time his question was directed to NanHua Qiu, the highest-ranking member among the evaluation mentor team.

She was a star mentor. One could say that within the entire Canghai Pavilion, apart from the old-timers at the level of Dean and Vice Dean, the star mentors had the most power, reputation, strength, methods... and they ranked as the top tier, rarely did anyone dare to question their authority.

"Elder Xu, Master Qiu is not omnipotent. She excels at developing skills and helping some Contracted Fond Spirits find ways of Ascending Evolution... How could she be expected to know every detail about every Fond Spirit’s characteristics?"

You Jin leaning forward, came to the defense of the mentor.

Elder Xu chuckled and still cast his expectant gaze onto NanHua Qiu.

"Excluding fire and lightning... "

"First, polluting the land with rotting poison. Even if the Silver Man-eating Flower has a good poison resistance, it will have difficulty absorbing spiritual material from the earth, and its ability to self-recover and self-heal would be greatly weakened."

"Second, destroy its bud. The bud of the Silver Man-eating Flower is like a layer of tough leather. Cut into it through the crevice of the petals, and you can damage its teeth and cause digestive fluid to flow."

"Once succeeded, the bud unlike the vine, does not regrow immediately and takes a longer time."

"This is when the Silver Man-eating Flower is at its weakest. Cut off the stem at the same time, you can suppress its recovery ability to the lowest level. Engaging it in battle then would become easy..."

"Very good, as expected of Qiu." Elder Xu beamed, "Our judgments are the same."

"But ultimately, this type of tactic still leans towards attrition."

"Lord Han mentioned earlier about needing a swift offensive Fond Spirit collaborator. Thinking about it. I am still in the dark..."

NanHua Qiu remained silent.

The gaze that stayed on Ye Hanjun became even more sharp and poignant!

...

"This concludes your attempt, Hunter."

"Through the past twenty to thirty rounds, I believe you and your Contracted Fond Spirit have established quite a rapport. You are qualified to use the hunting techniques I will teach."

"From here on, strictly follow my instructions. I will not tolerate any mistakes."

Ye Hanjun spoke languidly, issuing orders with a casual yet relaxed tone.

Lu Mei dared not show any hint of carelessness, replying in agreement and getting ready.

"The Silver Man-eating Flower of Rainbow Light Virtual Intro has five main vines, each main vine can split into several thin branch vines, remember this."

"Then... the first step of the battle, harassment."

"Have your Rotating Swallow fly in a circle, slope down its wings, and attract the Flower’s attention."

"After attracting four of the main vines, speed directly above it, at an approximate distance of thirty meters."

"Do not hesitate, dive down vertically. With the speed of the Rotating Swallow, the vines couldn’t defend in time, and it would be easy to dodge the remaining one."

"Remember, you mustn’t be afraid. When the Silver Man-eating Flower is faced with a foreign object attacking, its instinctive reaction under stress would be to open its bud, similar to a beast trying to bite."

"And in the center of its bud, there’s a soft substance. That is the combination of the Silver Man-eating Flower’s soul and life, which is this type of Fond Spirit’s ’fatal weakness’."

"Oh right, when you move in, you can shriek."

"Sudden high-volume sounds help stimulate the Silver Man-eating Flower, indirectly increasing the probability of success... "

Ye Hanjun poured out all in one breath.

When the echo of his words settled, Lu Mei, who had tightened her body’s muscles and dared not to divert her attention, ordered her Rotating Swallow to attack.

"Swoosh——"

"Screech! Screech!"

The claw-waving vines suddenly became like flaccid meat, dropping powerlessly.

In the training pavilion, everyone saw that the Silver Man-eating Flower’s bud was almost closed.

The moment it folds, the sharp teeth may not be able to kill the Rotating Swallow instantly, but inflicting serious injury is easy.

However, at the moment, the bud was like frozen, unable to close no matter what.

A high-pitched swallow cry was heard suddenly, and the slightly injured Rotating Swallow flew out, circling in the air, utterly triumphant.

The Silver Man-eating Flower... died!

To be precise, its body still retained a strong life force, like an old tree that had grown for many years, rooted in the soil, it wasn’t easy for it to rot.

But its soul - was obliterated!

Having lost its Spirit Wisdom, it became an empty shell assuming a plant form.

The remaining life force will keep draining. However long it had absorbed from the soil for its life, upon its death, it would return doubly.

"Did we win just like that?"

Lu Mei who took part in the game, swallowed.

She cautiously approached the Silver Man-eating Flower, grabbed its vine with force to drag it, but it didn’t move an inch.

She repeatedly kicked at the silver-white bud, but that too stayed unmoving, not responding at all.

The Silver Man-eating Flower - truly dead!!

Lu Mei stood stupefied, recalling at the beginning of the fight, even though she held an edge over it, the battling was still strenuous.

Following Master Han’s instructions and targeting the "fatal weakness", in one blow... victory was clear-cut!

"There is still a group in the Southern Campus who think Master Han is all talk and no action, that they just need to find the right opportunity to put him in his place."

"Based on what’s shown in just this course, he could never be a shallow person!"

"Learning from him, the relevant combat experience, on-spot judgment ability, and attack rhythm... is likely to make a qualitative leap!"
