At the command of Qin Lang, Spicy opened his mouth, revealing his sharp fangs which were partially exposed even when his mouth was closed.
Accompanied by the energy drawn from Qin Lang’s Tianxuan Star Vein from afar, Spicy’s sharp little fangs suddenly erupted in a bright, colorful glow, as if filled with some magical power instantly!
The next moment, Spicy bit fiercely at the long tail that was aimed at him!
Simultaneously, the tail’s striking force also hit Spicy’s body.
“Bang
With a muffled noise, Spicy was flung away by the strength of the tail strike, rolling in the air several times before barely coming to a halt.
There was a shallow wound at the corner of his mouth – the mark of the blow he had taken when he had braced himself against the tail with his teeth.
A wound like this wouldn’t be enough to incapacitate Spicy, but its fighting spirit flared more intensely after the first injury. It quickly turned its head to the opponent on the other side.
However, in the next moment, the fighting spirit in Spicy’s eyes dissipated, giving way to a dazed expression.
Qi Xiaoyu’s Food Spirit was already collapsed on the ground, unmoving.
On its long tail, two bite marks that continued to emit colorful light were highly noticeable.
“What the…” Jiang Gang, who had witnessed the entire scene silently, rubbed his face and muttered in disbelief, “What kind of luck is this?”
He quickly walked to Qi Xiaoyu’s Food Spirit, looked at Xiu Xiu whose eyes were already spinning, and began the countdown as per the rules.
Five seconds passed.
“Beep
“Spirit Battle over, Qin Lang wins this Spirit Battle!”
“What just… happened?” Holding her Food Spirit in her arms, Qi Xiaoyu’s face was filled with bewilderment.
The battle ended just like that, with Qin Lang’s Food Spirit taking a bite at Xiu Xiu?!
And that combat skill.
Lucky Bite Mark?
Qi Xiaoyu had been studying various combat skills lately, but remembering thousands of them would not be an easy task, and she had yet to learn about the more obscure ones.
Like this Lucky Bite Mark—she’d never heard of it.
“The fighting-based combat skill, Lucky Bite Mark, has a slight chance of instantly incapacitating the opponent after a successful hit. The actual probability varies with the difference in strength between the two sides.”
Du Weiwei, holding her Food Spirit, walked onto the field. She looked at Spicy in surprise, “I didn’t expect your second Food Spirit’s combat skill would turn out to be this.”
“And…”
She turned her gaze towards Qi Xiaoyu, suppressing a peculiar smile.
She didn’t say anything, but it felt as if she had said it all.
Already stunned due to her swift defeat in the Spirit Battle, Qi Xiaoyu looked utterly defeated.
“So… was my luck just that bad?!”
“Actually, I didn’t expect it to be effective the first time either.” Qin Lang scratched his head, unable to hold back his laughter, “I was planning on trying it three times to see just how slim this ‘small probability’ actually was…”
“Enough!” Qi Xiaoyu clutched her chest, looking hurt, “Stop talking!”
Who had she offended to deserve such bad luck?!
Du Weiwei was rendered speechless and then looked at Qin Lang, “But the Lucky Bite Mark has great limitations. It requires close combat, and whether the effect can be triggered or not depends entirely on luck.”
“I understand.” Qin Lang nodded
Every skill has its pros and cons.
At the One-Star Stage, Food Spirits are limited as they only have one combat skill.
This limitation can only be eliminated after the Food Spirit achieves Two or Three Stars, gaining two or three combat skills, which can then be combined and developed through self-discovered battle techniques.
So the fights between One-Star Food Spirits are more like minor skirmishes.
Moreover, Spicy’s Lucky Bite Mark is more like a war tactic that relies heavily on other combat skills.
This tactic, when used alone, depends entirely on luck.
So, until Spicy reaches Two Stars, it should avoid participating in Spirit Battles.
While Du Weiwei and Qin Lang were talking, Spicy, in a daze from absorbing the Star Power gained from victory, finally came back to its senses.
Use a combat skill, take a bite at the opponent.
And that’s… victory?
So this is a Spirit Battle!
Its bicolor, red and green eyes, lit up immediately.
In an instant, it fell in love with the feel of the battle.
This feeling was simply too great!
It wanted to experience this a billion more times!
“Guluru!”
Well done!
Dan Bao, who was off the field, flew in, snuggled up to Spicy, gave a gentle rub, and then flew towards Qin Lang.
“Gudong!”
Now, watch me next!
“Cha-ka!”
Go for it! Don’t lose!
Watching Dan Bao’s departing figure, Spicy flew out of the arena and her eyes, without batting, keenly kept track of Qin Lang and Dan Bao on the battlefield, worried for the next battle.
On the other side, Qi Xiaoyu, whose bloodline had been approved, left the stage after a double shock, hugged Xiu Xiu, sat down in the spectator seats, and, with puffed cheeks, watched Du Weiwei and Qin Lang in the arena.
The Spirit Battle had not yet started, but the discussion among other people nearby caused Qi Xiaoyu to perk up her ears.
“Isn’t that Du Weiwei? Qin Lang’s opponent is her; this battle will be interesting.”
“I’ve presided over a few of her spirit battles. Du Weiwei has a Food Spirit whose Combat Skills of awakening twice can be combined together. The power is far greater than the sum of the parts.”
“I watched the live broadcast yesterday. Qin Lang’s Food Spirit just leveled up to two stars yesterday. Preparing for the championship battle today, presumably, he has not had the chance to train his Food Spirit in this aspect.”
“Training and cooking are two separate paths after all; it’s not that simple to focus on both at the same time.”
H H
Qi Xiaoyu recognized one or two familiar figures from the crowd and quickly confirmed their identities.
These were other Spirit Battle Judges from the Association!
Unexpectedly, they also came to watch the match; it appeared that Qin Lang was getting a lot of attention.
Weiwei’s combined battle skills, huh…
Qi Xiaoyu looked at Du Weiwei and her eyes filled with curiosity.
During their battles, Weiwei had never revealed that kind of skill.
After all, she and her Food Spirit were too weak and could not even force Du Weiwei to use her second Combat Skill.
Recalling how easily Qin Lang defeated her, Qi Xiaoyu couldn’t help but snort.
I hope Weiwei uses her combined Combat Skills and wipes the floor with him.
On the field, Jiang Gang looked at the two who were about to engage in the second Spirit Battle.
There was no need to discuss Qin Lang.
As for Du Weiwei, she has somewhat of a reputation in the Dongxia City’s Spirit Chef Association.
She had some similarities with Tang Xie in that regard.
Du Weiwei’s fame was earned through Spirit Battles.
Though she didn’t have a second Food Spirit, under the lvi Food Spirit battle rules, she had a high winning rate.
Just like his colleagues in the Spectator Seats, Jiang Gang also thought that Qin Lang has small chances of winning.
But they would still only know after the match.
“The Spirit Battle format you two have chosen is the lvi Food Spirit combat. Both of you can only send out one Food Spirit and can’t change in the middle of the match.”
“Once a Food Spirit is completely out of combat capability, the Spirit Battle is over.”
“So now…”
Jiang Gang looked at Qin Lang and Du Weiwei, who had already prepared themselves, and tightly held the whistle in his hand.
“Three count starts, the Spirit Battle begins!”
