Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane! - Chapter 135

Chapter 135: The Fatal Weakness of Beast Soul Style

The other monster controller freshmen and the students in the resource course were also filled with admiration as they stared at Meng Chao.

It has to be known that usually, harvesters, martial artists, and monster controllers worked together to perform injury examinations.

The harvesters were only in charge of cleaning up the bloody wounds so that the fatal injuries were exposed.

As for how the revealed data should be read, that was something that the martial artists and monster controllers did.

But Meng Chao had not just perfectly completed the harvester’s job, he also completed the other party’s task and even managed to do so in a very exciting fashion.

After all, he had a very deep understanding of martial arts. He could deduce the situation clearly and provide two strategies that promised a high chance of victory.

His guidance was very helpful to the monster controller freshman.

‘This is an ace student!’ The monster controllers were shocked.

They shoved at each other while respectfully asking Meng Chao to check their biochemical beasts. They wanted to find out the reasons behind why they lost and get the best strategy to fight against the martial artists.

Meng Chao did not reject them. He provided guidance to all of them.

“Your Demonic Halberd Pig was injured by the martial arts course’s Sun Ya, right? She has cleared more than eighty main meridians. She has spirit energy all around her, and she’s very nimble. She is indeed very difficult to deal with.

“But you shouldn’t have lost so badly.

“There are a total of 325 wounds of varying degrees on this Demonic Halberd Pig, but the fatal wound is a stab to the left eye. The other wounds are not deep. The deepest is less than one inch. It fits into Sun Ya’s nimble, agile, and unfathomable fighting style.

“I think she used a fast and unpredictable sword technique that enveloped the Demonic Halberd Pig, which made you panic, and you only cared about dodging. This whittled down its stamina and revealed an opening, which then resulted in a sword being driven into its eye socket.

“The problem is, why did you go along with her rhythm? Why did you dance with her?

“The greatest advantage of a Demonic Halberd Pig is in its thick skin, and its greatest disadvantage is its clumsiness. It’s not suited for moving around or dodging in small areas. You shouldn’t have dodged, because you couldn’t have possibly dodged!

“Look, the first 324 slashes did not deal fatal damage to the Demonic Halberd Pig. They were all feints. Even if the cuts deepened from one inch to two inches or even three inches, it would have been fine.

“But if Sun Ya had to push her sword further, it would have wasted a lot of energy. She might have also found herself held back by your beast, which would have taken away her nimbleness and agility.

“If I were you, I wouldn’t have dodged at all. I’d make the beast face her attacks, lower its head, and charge forward. After all, she goes for speed, and the cold weapons she uses are all rapiers or scimitars. Even if she stabbed or cut your Demonic Halberd Pig on the back a few times, if your beast continues charging around with its head lowered, you’d have forced her into a corner at some point.

“I’m not saying that you could definitely win if you fought this way, but at the very least, you could have whittled down her stamina. She would have had a much harder time winning, and it wouldn’t have been easy for her to fight in the next round.

“Sun Ya is the strongest fighter on paper in the martial arts course. Were you thinking about minimizing damage when you fought against her, because you’d be considered to have won if you cut down on your losses?”

Meng Chao was pointing at the damage on the Demonic Halberd Pig and he described the fight between the second monster controller freshman and Sun Ya.

The freshmen gasped in amazement and enlightenment once more.

“Next is this Demonic Dungeon Spider. It was nearly split from top to bottom. At first glance, you might think that it lost horribly and that the difference between the two fighters was night and day, so there is nothing for me to analyze.”

Meng Chao looked at the third monster’s torn up carcass. “Jiang Rui did this, right? He has the best kicking technique in the martial arts course. When he uses spirit energy, his legs turn into indestructible battle axes, and when he wears specially designed combat boots with sharp blades hidden in them, forget about this Demonic Dungeon Spider, even the Demonic Halberd Pig and Iron Armored Rhinoceros might end up getting split in half.

“But why didn’t this Demonic Dungeon Spider release all of the sticky liquid in its abdomen. Why is half of it still inside?

“The greatest weapon of a wild Demonic Dungeon Spider is its highly corrosive sticky liquid. They can fire it dozens of meters away or more than ten meters above itself. Even a Blade Shattering Python might get stuck and fearsome falcon-type monsters be shot down from the top of trees.

“Since this beast has been tamed and its genes were modified, the stickiness, corrosion, and production rate should have all been increased. Yet its stomach is filled with this liquid. Why didn’t you finish using it?

“I get it, you were firing at Jiang Rui’s legs to get them stuck, right? But the chance of success doing this is too low. He is the fastest in the martial arts course, you know?

“Next time, if you run into Jiang Rui again, just fire the liquid all over the stage to make it sticky. That way, Jiang Rui will have trouble moving around and making great use of his kicking technique. You yourself might not be able to move much as well, but your Demonic Dungeon Spider will be able to move like the wind on the liquid!”

Then came the fourth biochemical beast.

“Black-patterned Toad received a really bad beating. There are a total of fifty-two saber cuts, and from the angle and strength, whoever did this used both arms. They attacked repeatedly with two sabers and often turned feints into real attacks. If you were the slightest bit careless, you could get killed.

“This is Xie Feng’s specialty. He has cleared basically all main meridians in his arms, and they’re as long as an ape’s. He can stretch them out and pull them back at will. If he has two sabers on top of that, his attack range becomes incredibly long.

“The difference in strength is really great between you two, so it’s no wonder why you lost, but Black-patterned Toads can self-explode. If I were you, after getting hit thrice, I would’ve known that I’ll lose. From that moment, I would’ve started thinking of ways to lead the fight to the point that I can self-explode.

“Yeah, I know that the Black-patterned Toad’s poison isn’t very strong, and even if you can self-explode, the sticky liquid that sprays out only causes a slight itch and dizziness. It might not interfere with his next battle, but this is the only thing you could do. You have to do your best even if you don’t know whether it’ll help, understood?”

As Meng Chao performed his analysis, he practically reconstructed the exciting matches against the Four Great Kings during the freshmen tournament.

The monster controller freshmen looked at each other before they shut their eyes and thought carefully. If they had used Senior Meng’s strategies, while they might not have been able to secure a full win, they would have at least had a chance to win. Wu Wu might not have even needed to come out!

“Senior Meng, you’re right!”

“The martial arts course isn’t anything great. We just weren’t thinking and chose wrong strategies, that’s why we lost!”

“After the guidance you provided, we’ll definitely defeat them next time!”

Many of the monster controller freshmen rubbed their palms together. They were eager to fight again.

“You’re right,” Meng Chao said with a smile. “The Beast Soul Style is very powerful, but it also has great weaknesses. It’s not a mature fighting style.

“You have to understand, even the Overkill Style faces the serious problem of accumulating power, stiffening up, and cooling down. Since the Beast Soul Style is derived from it and uses various monsters’ vitality magnetic fields to create spirit energy magnetic fields, this problem is even more severe.

“It’s because their magnetic fields don’t gel together. At the same time they obtain great power, the Beast Soul Style martial artists’ minds and control lose stability. After someone uses a major move like Lion Frenzy, the time they need to cool down is really long.

“As for you monster controllers, you use your minds to control monsters while you hide behind them. Your endurance should be slightly higher than that of the Beast Soul Style martial artists.

“If I were you, I’d exploit my advantage as much as possible. I wouldn’t be in a hurry to finish a fight as soon as possible. Instead, I’d lure the enemy time and again to create spirit energy magnetic fields so I could whittle down their stamina, spirit energy, and main meridians’ strength.

“It’s just like how a cannon barrel will become really hot after it’s fired repeatedly. If a martial artist continuously releases major moves, their main meridians will start burning, and if they continue forcing themselves to create high intensity spirit magnetic field rotation energy to form complex spirit energy magnetic fields, they might ‘explode in the barrel’.

“At that time, their strength will plummet, and you can counterattack calmly.”

The monster controller freshmen had contemplative expressions.

“I saw many of the martial arts course and monster controller course tournament videos from the previous batches. Basically, the monster controller course always subjugates its opponent in time. Why were you so rash this time?” Meng Chao thought about it.

“Were you influenced by the rumors saying that the monster controller course is experiencing a minor year? You heard word about how you don’t have anyone outstanding among you and you might lose to the martial arts course? Were you rash and eager to win because of it?”

The faces of the monster controller freshmen turned red, and they lowered their heads in embarrassment.

“The road of a superhuman is long. You’ve just started on it, so losing once isn’t anything,” Meng Chao said. “If you train hard, especially your branch meridians when you have the chance to cultivate them, you can strengthen your own fighting power, which will help you win against the Beast Soul Style.”

The monster controller freshmen teared up from his words. They were so impressed with Meng Chao that they were about to kneel down and worship him.

‘Whosoever talks bad about the martial arts course is our friend.’

They thought that they were bound by the same hatred of their enemy.

“Senior Meng, your words show great insight!”

“There’s a fatal weakness in the Beast Soul Style! The martial arts course won’t be able to withstand even a single blow from us!

“They were lucky today and had a slight upper hand in the beginning, but in the end, when Big Sis Panther came out, she fought against seven of them in a row and defeated all of them. Their Four Great Kings went running with their tails between their legs!”

“Now, with your guidance, we won’t even need Wu Wu to show up next time! We will definitely be the ones defending the glory of the monster controller course!”

“Thank you, Senior Meng, we gained a lot from you this time. Let us treat you to dinner tonight. We’ll get a private room in the canteen of the resource course, and you can ask for the most luxurious meal. Next time, you’re welcome to come and observe our competition. You can watch us as we beat up the martial arts course!”

The monster controller freshmen puffed out their chests.

“There’s no need for you to treat me to a meal. But could you do something for me?” A strange light shone in Meng Chao’s eyes. He slowly removed his goggles and mask. “Could you please separate the Beast Soul Style from the martial arts course?

“I don’t mind if you want to beat up the practitioners of the Beast Soul Style. I believe that you will definitely be able to do it if you work hard, but don’t you think that the difficulty in defending the glory of the monster controller course and beating up the martial arts course is a little too high?
