CHAPTER 92: CHAPTER 87: LIGHTNING SPRINT, NIU NIU THROUGH THE STORM

Whoosh~~

Feeling the reckless fury of the tornado, Xiaobai’s pupils became incredibly clear.

Right now, it didn’t need to think too much, it had to focus...

Lin Chen said, as long as you focus on doing one thing, even if you fail in the end, you are still a winner.

Step!

The hind hooves suddenly exerted force, and the dark blue body jumped high, drawing an amazing arc in the air.

Its fur was blown wildly by the gale, and in the next second, it crossed the middle position of two tornadoes at lightning speed...

Lin Chen watched this scene, so tense that sweat broke out on his back.

The center position swept by these two tornadoes happened to be about the size of one and a half cows.

Others also noticed this thrilling scene, all swallowing hard.

The timing was possibly less than a second; if Xiaobai’s speed couldn’t break through, it would be swallowed by the tornado.

After crossing the tornado, the tension transferred to Ning Tian and the Windborne Serpent.

Ning Tian had foresight, having already ordered the Windborne Serpent to quickly retreat.

The moment Xiaobai crossed the storm gap, its hooves landed...

Soul-Calming Hoof!

The earth trembled!

This time, Xiaobai exerted its full strength, because at entry-level, the distance of the Soul-Calming Hoof was too short to catch up with the retreating Windborne Serpent.

Almost instantly, Xiaobai felt as if all its strength had been drained away...

But this time, Xiaobai could feel it had held up.

Its eyes were bright, following the impact wave of the Soul-Calming Hoof, chasing the direction of the Windborne Serpent with three residual shadows above its head!

It mooed loudly, as if declaring, and also celebrating!

In its strongest state, the combined skill...

Finally succeeded!

...

Boom~~

A sound exploded, and the Windborne Serpent suddenly felt dizzy and its vision blurred.

Yet its bloodline was strong, recovering within a second to continue escaping.

Only then did it realize its spirit had become languid...

"Spiritual languor effect?" Ning Tian wasn’t surprised that Lin Chen’s Soul-Calming Hoof had cultivated to this effect; he now knew he might have lost.

In a state of spiritual languor, the Windborne Serpent’s condition slid rapidly.

Finally, Xiaobai arrived behind!

The three residual shadows of the Iron Horn Impact fiercely collided into the abdomen of the Windborne Serpent, causing it to immediately bleed profusely, then sent flying, crashing into a small pit on the ground amidst rising dust.

It cried out in agony!

Though Xiaobai was in a weakened state, it still stood firmly, staring intently at the Windborne Serpent.

At that moment, Ning Tian shouted:

"You won!"

Ning Tian’s voice was steady, but his heart was massively shaken.

Xiaobai won, executing the strongest combined skill...

But how on earth did it manage the strain of both explosive skills?

Ning Tian understood, he didn’t lose unfairly.

However, what irked him was...

Xiaobai didn’t use the third skill from start to finish.

Could it be that they predicted they wouldn’t need the third skill against the Windborne Serpent?

Ning Tian felt insulted.

But there was nothing to be done...

Even without using the third skill, they still lost.

Losing meant losing, and Ning Tian accepted it.

He stepped forward, took out herbs, and after briefly bandaging, he said to Lin Chen with clasped hands, "I will honor our bet later, right now I need to heal my Spirit Beast."

"Please do." Lin Chen also clasped his hands.

Ning Tian quickly returned to his position, and the audience had already erupted.

"Ning Tian actually lost? That’s the Windborne Serpent."

"That Plowhorn Beast defied the heavens."

"I can’t accept this."

"Neither can I, it didn’t even need the third skill."

"Maybe it hasn’t awakened the third skill at all."

"Since Lin Chen’s Spirit Beasts are so monstrous, its awakening is normal, he needn’t lie."

As they talked, the crowd eventually agreed that Lin Chen was underestimating Ning Tian, hence not using the third skill.

"Now that Ning Tian has lost too, we’ve truly lost our only face..."

The spirit of the Inner Courtyard’s students suffered another heavy blow.

Lin Chen, hearing these words, also felt awkward.

He never said he was underestimating Ning Tian...

If he could use the Barbaric Bloodline, Lin Chen definitely would have used it early.

The trouble was, using that bloodline would risk downing not only the Windborne Serpent, possibly, even them.

Lin Chen naturally wouldn’t explain, and he jogged to Xiaobai’s side, who stood there, its legs actually were already weak...

But a victor cannot collapse, as it would appear quite lacking in spirit.

Until Lin Chen arrived, it mooed, then sat on the ground, extending its cow head towards Lin Chen.

Lin Chen reached out to pet it, both as a sign of approval, and to collect bloodline.

This was his first time touching a Spirit Beast related to the Dragon Race bloodline, although it certainly wouldn’t be much...

[Windborne Serpent]

[Dominant Bloodline: Windborne Serpent 49.78%, Shadow Wandering Chi (Sacred Beast) 35.17%]

[Hidden Bloodline: 6.79%]

[Polluted Bloodline: 8.26]

Not outstanding.

Lin Chen, though disappointed, also pondered for a moment; this Hidden Bloodline should be equivalent to the true Dragon Race bloodline, which must be scarce.

To a certain extent, this Spirit Beast had a very high chance of evolving to Shadow Wandering Chi, so for Ning Tian, it was considered top-tier.

"Put it away first." Lin Chen upheld his principle of no wastage, as this bloodline was from an Advanced Spirit Transformation.

Then he took it back to his pit, scooped out water from the hot spring, and started washing Xiaobai’s head.

Xiaobai was in high spirits, occasionally mooing twice.

However, the Little Fox was awakened and, upon hearing about Xiaobai’s recent battle, perked its ears...

This time, the cheerleaders couldn’t perform, naturally feeling upset.

Lin Chen smiled helplessly, letting Xiaobai first enter the Spirit Spring to meditate together, while he got up and walked towards the second pit.

Having won, Lin Chen couldn’t wait to obtain the Three Thousand Cyan Wus.

He wanted Xiaobai to use this third skill soon, even if it meant at all costs.

....

"Boo hoo hoo~~~"

"How could he lose?"

Murong Xue, though pretending to cry, was clearly unhappy.

Ning Tian’s loss was indeed a displeasing matter for her.

"Weren’t you the one clamoring for him to lose once before..." Zhang Shi said from the side, "Now that he truly lost, you are the one unhappy."

"I... maybe I just wanted him to lose to me."

"Then keep dreaming."

"..."

Their conversation caught Lin Chen’s ears, and he felt somewhat tense.

She wouldn’t back out of the deal, would she?

As Lin Chen approached, they noticed him, and Murong Xue quickly composed herself, glancing at Lin Chen...

How could he be so monstrous, even defeating her brother Ning Tian?

Zhang Shi promptly coughed lightly, saying, "Lin Chen, are you here for the Three Thousand Cyan Wus?"

Lin Chen clasped his hands to Murong Xue, saying, "Thank you for your trouble."

"I wouldn’t default." Murong Xue said angrily, waving her hand and took out the Three Thousand Cyan Wus from her Beast Taming Space.

"Tap~~"

Murong Xue’s second Spirit Beast turned out to be a Tree Spirit of the spiritual system.

No wonder she wanted the Three Thousand Cyan Wus.

Three Thousand Cyan Wus were originally plants, more effective for Tree Spirits.

"Alright, it’s just lending to him, not like it won’t be returned." Murong Xue knew it was having a tantrum, after all, it was its own item, so she comforted, "You have studied it for quite a while, a rest would be good."

The Tree Spirit was quite understanding, and soon calmed down.

"Thank you." Lin Chen took it, his mood elated.

"Accept losing, take your reward, and leave quickly."

Murong Xue issued a dismissal order; Lin Chen thought she surely wasn’t happy, but he didn’t mind and left directly.

Who would have thought Murong Xue turned to Zhang Shi and said, "What are you still doing here?"

"I didn’t offend you."

"But I’m busy now..." Murong Xue took out a mirror, looked at it and then delightfully said, "I need to put on makeup to comfort my brother Ning Tian; he must feel so empty right now, I need to seize the opportunity."

Zhang Shi was embarrassed...

You see, she isn’t unhappy at all.
