nBoom!

nHuge fireballs fell.

nThey didn’t hit anyone, but the candidates ambushed in the bushes got startled and rushed out suddenly. They looked at Su Hao with surprise and suspicion.

n“How did you discover us?”

nWhile they were shocked, Su Hao was also observing them.

nTen people, ten sprites.

nTheir sprites had yet to reach a stage that they could break through, but they weren’t weak either. The really weak candidates had already been eliminated over the past two dates.

nThey generally had a spiritual force of around 70 to 80.

nSu Hao’s gaze stayed on a big-sized sprite a bit longer.

nIt was a Rumbling Pig, the evolved form of Mini Pig!

nIt was as tall as a person, its whole body covered with thick black hair. It looked like it had a pretty strong suppressive aura, and it made a rumbling noise when it ran.

nIts Sprite Trainer was the hat-wearing boy.

nSu Hao would call him Boy With Hat for now.

nBoy With Hat wasn’t part of the intel he had gathered.

nSu Hao suspected that Rumbling Pig had stayed in its room since arriving at Battle Preparation Village.

nAfter all, Rumbling Pig had another characteristic, that it liked to sleep and made a rumbling snore.

nAlthough its spiritual force is not particularly strong, the battle power of evolved sprites is undoubtedly stronger.

nMost Sprite Trainers would use the improvements made from the sprite’s first evolution to break through into entry-level in one fell swoop.

nHowever, it wasn’t impossible for sprites to evolve before entry-level.

nAmong initial-form sprites, Mini Pig’s battle power was among the lowest, weaker than even Silkworm Baby. It’s also pretty reasonable that it evolved in advance…

nSu Hao guessed that Boy With Hat wanted to compete for the top ten’s rewards.

nIf he sacrificed a bit of the sprites’ potential to get a good ranking, it was also a pretty good deal.

nSilkworm Baby, which was in the middle of confronting other sprites, looked around it, and somehow felt that someone was speaking ill of it.

n“Don’t be scared, he’s alone!”

nDuring the short period that Su Hao was observing, the hat-wearing boy had already recovered.

nHe commanded Rumbling Pig to rush up.

nOther sprites had used the unique skills that they had practiced for months.

n“Granule Machine Gun!”

n“Water Arrows!”

n“Charging!”

nSu Hao had already retreated quietly to a big tree earlier on. At that moment, seeing the countless unique skills flying toward him, he backed away and hid behind a thick tree trunk with a diameter of one meter.

nCountless unique skills hit right onto the thick tree trunk.

nWithout showing his head, Su Hao directly shouted, “Silkworm Baby, make it a quick fight!”

nThey were too close to the finishing point, after all.

n“Gurgle!”

nBoy With Hat got angry. “Rumbling Pig, use Earthquake!”

n“Rumble~!”

nRumbling Pig’s front feet lifted high and fell heavily. The fat on its body swayed like waves.

nThe ground trembled, while gravel swished up and fell like rain.

nSilkworm Baby did not dodge, and shrouded in the brilliance of Charging it rushed over in the rain of gravel.

nOn the opposite side…

nA Little Ground Wolf and a Grass Sheep also started Charging.

nThere were also several Water-Element and Wood-Element Sprites. Mist came out of their mouths as they prepared to use Water Arrows and Granule Machine Gun again.

nSilkworm Baby was still some distance away from them.

n“Gurgle!٩(๑`^ ́๑)۶)`Д ́)!”

nAlong with the sound, a special spiritual force spread, and the sprites that were just performing unique skills suddenly trembled.

nFear appeared deep in their eyes.

nThe Charging Little Ground Wolf and Grass Sheep’s front legs weakened. The two sprites rolled together.

nStunning!

nI’m super fierce!

nSilkworm Baby made use of the acceleration from Charging and directly rushed past Rumbling Pig. He knocked a Dotted Mushroom out more than 20 meters, and then forcefully lashed out four Energy Balls, blasting away several sprites that stood a bit further.

nWhen Rumbling Pig turned around to chase Silkworm Baby, it was stunned as it looked at the messy ground.

nWhere did all my teammates go?

nBoy with Hat’s face was stiff.

nIt’s okay that it can use Energy Balls. But four in a second!?

nWhy would a cute sprite be so strong?!

nAnd… Why did the sprites suddenly freeze just now!?

n“It’s Stunning.”

nIt was Heavenly King Zhou Weiping who spoke.

nAs the number of candidates decreased, the ones whose performance was outstanding had long received special attention.

nSu Hao was one of the targets of Heavenly King Zhou’s special attention.

n“Stunning?” A Sprite Trainer thought for a moment before remembering what kind of unique skill Stunning was. “Isn’t that an illusion-element unique skill?”

nIllusion-Element Sprites were rare.

nAnd illusion-element unique skills were even rarer!

nAs for the skill Stunning, they had only seen it before in the teaching plan.

nFour Energy Balls in a second!

nTurning back Charging in mid-air!

nString Shot and Stunning!

nThis Silkworm Baby…

nThis candidate is…

n“Very interesting.” Heavenly King Zhou Weiping stared at the screen for several seconds. “Although this Silkworm Baby has yet to reach entry-level, its spiritual force is very high. It is very rare, really rare for sprites to be cultivated to a point like this.”

nHeavenly King Zhou even felt a little like meeting Su Hao immediately.

nIn the forest…

nSilkworm Baby knocked out five sprites in an instant, completely stunning other candidates and sprites.

nAfter Little Ground Wolf and Grass Sheep got up from the ground, their legs still shook, and they kept retreating.

nA candidate on the side suddenly shouted, “It’s a chance, use Seed Grenade!”

nHis sprite was the Silk-Cotton Owl, which was in charge of spying. It was affected by Silkworm Baby’s powers but happened to fly to the vicinity of Su Hao.

nOnce it heard the command, Silk-Cotton Owl flapped its wings and dropped brown bombs, targeting Su Hao, who was pressed against the tree trunk.

nIn front are the Seed Grenades dropped by the Silk-Cotton Owl. At the back, he is stopped by the tree trunk!

nA light of hope appeared in the eyes of Boy With Hat.

nRumble!!

n“Did it work?”

nBoy With Hat’s eyes opened wide.

nSmoke and mist dispersed gradually.

nBoy With Hat saw a pair of wings closed together like a giant black egg.

nThe wings opened to show the completely unharmed Su Hao inside and a Little Fire Crow with anger in its eyes.

nIt was very angry!

nBig Boss Silkworm God told me to protect Master properly, but I almost let an accident happen. It’s unforgivable!!!

nThe black wings extended, and their shadow enshrouded Silk-Cotton Owl.

n“Coo…”

nA painful scream echoed in the air for a long time.

nSu Hao looked up and walked out of the space behind the tree step by step.

nBlack wings opened behind him like a demon, followed by a demonic voice.

n“Don’t let anyone leave.”

nThe ten candidates ran off in all directions.

nUnfortunately, no matter how fast they were, they couldn’t possibly be faster than Silkworm Baby—the Spiderman and Flying Thunder God.

nThe furthest candidate ran out for more than a hundred meters, fell down on the ground, and was dealt with by Silkworm Baby, which arrived afterward.

n“Gurgleヾ(๑╹◡╹)ノ”!”

n“Good, good, you are the best, I remember all your contributions. In any case, the items rewarded will be used on you both too.”

n“Gurgle, gurgle!!!”

nThat one is different!

nSilkworm Baby took a breath to recover its spiritual force after the killing spree.

nLittle Fire Crow took on guard duty.

nRight then…

nThe grass not far away was ruffling.

nThe two sprites and Su Hao were on alert.

nA panting boy rushed out of the grass—the light shield around his body produced a dull yellow glow.

nThis was a sign that his energy value was on a threshold, and he was about to be eliminated.

nSilkworm Baby thought this scene was too attractive, so it couldn’t help but throw an Energy Ball.

nIt blasted, and the hurriedly fleeing boy was pushed onto the ground by the impact’s force, and he squealed.

nHis bracelet vibrated.

nSu Hao saw a prompt.

n 1,008 points.

nHe was stunned for a moment, before realizing that this was a huge fat sheep.

nIt was an acquaintance of his—Huang Ji.

nHe’s actually feeling in such a poor state?

nSu Hao realized that something was wrong.

nHe looked in the direction Huang Ji was fleeing and noticed ice sleets forming on the grass.

n
