Pokémon: Hard work pays off, moves can be upgraded infinitely.

"Double needles plus a poisoned needle?"

Upon hearing Mu Yun's instructions, Liu Hesheng frowned slightly, seemingly puzzled.

Azure Blade Demon has four times the resistance to Bug-type moves and two times the resistance to Poison-type moves, so why use these two moves?

"Azure Flame Blade Demon, take this, Regret Sword!"

Since he couldn't figure it out, Liu Hesheng didn't dwell on it any longer.

Regardless of Mu Yun's thoughts, all he needs to do is attack.

Flames flickered in the eyes of the Azure Flame Blade Demon, and the flaming longswords on its arms ignited once more.

Azure Flame Blade Demon can learn many moves, but he seems to have an innate talent for the Regret Sword.

He is like two different spirits, one with a sword and the other without, each with a completely different state.

Liu Hesheng's grandfather called it the state of "sword heart clarity," which in a person is similar to the talent of becoming one with the sword.

This talent doesn't directly increase your level or any attribute; instead, it allows you to control your weapon with ease, making the blade move at will.

"ashamed!"

The fully armed Azure Flame Blade Demon stared intently at Xiao Du's figure, and as he rapidly approached, it swung its sword to meet him.

clang!!

The metallic clanging sound rang out again.

But this time, whether it was Azure Flame Blade Demon's imagination or not, he felt that the power coming from the bee stings was not as great as in the previous collisions.

Not to mention compared to the previous attacks, even compared to the first one, the power was significantly weaker.

Just as he was wondering, he suddenly felt a slight stinging pain on his arm where the bee sting had touched him, a sensation somewhat like his skin being burned.

This feeling was very peculiar; it was the first time he had ever experienced it since birth.

He looked down and saw a pool of dark purple liquid slowly dripping from the silvery-white bee stinger. When it touched his dark purple arms, a faint burning sensation came over him.

poison?

This was Azure Flame Blade Demon's first thought.

He had battled Poison-type Pokémon before, but this was the first time he had been hurt by a Poison-type move.

In the past, even poison-type Pokémon couldn't break through his defenses.

"Hiss!"

Just then, Xiao Du, who was engaged in close combat with him, opened his mouth, and countless purple poison needles formed in his oral cavity.

The speed was so fast that the Azure Flame Blade Demon had no time to react before being attacked face-to-face by the gushing poison needles.

Fine and hard poison needles clattered against the surface of the Azure Flame Blade Demon. Even with its mother armor weakening its power, many dense and hard poison needles still embedded themselves into its outer armor.

Almost the instant the needle was embedded, it began to soften, turning into pools of liquid that began to corrode his skin in the blink of an eye.

Ghost-type Pokémon, just like their name suggests, are like ghosts, able to switch freely between physical and non-physical forms.

However, the essence of this switch is not to make the body intangible, but to use ghost-type energy to hide in another space that is not visible to the naked eye.

In other words, Ghost-type Pokémon are essentially no different from other types; they all have a real physical body.

As the venom from the melting needles invaded, Azure Flame Blade Demon felt as if countless ants were crawling on his chest, gnawing at him as they crawled.

The intense and intense pain made it difficult for the Azure Flame Blade Demon to maintain the Regret Sword in its hand.

"ashamed!!!"

The Azure Flame Blade Demon's cry of pain echoed throughout the entire arena.

"!!!"

Looking at the Azure Flame Blade Demon that suddenly screamed in agony, Liu Hesheng's eyes were filled with shock and confusion.

What's going on? It's just a poison needle, how could it cause Azure Flame Blade Demon so much pain?

Not only was Liu Hesheng surprised, but Tao Jingyuan, who was in the special guest seat, also showed surprise in her beautiful eyes.

The Azure Flame Blade Demon did not show the slightest sign of pain when facing the relentless attacks of the giant needle bee. How could a simple poison needle cause him so much pain?

If she remembered correctly, Beedrill's main attribute wasn't poison, was it?

Is it some kind of special mutant toxin?

Or is it the unique talent for nurturing that boy?

Tao Jingyuan was quite curious.

"The 'mother's armor' is still too authoritative..."

Inside the red zone, Mu Yun looked at the Azure Flame Blade Demon emitting screams of agony, his heart filled with sighs.

Back then, when Xiao Du attacked Roseredo, a veteran-level peak user, with his poison needles, Roseredo was basically knocked down upon contact, and any delay would mean certain death.

Unexpectedly, the Azure Flame Blade Demon, who was also at the peak of the senior level, still had the strength to shout and struggle.

That's really impressive!

If the other party hadn't seemed unaccustomed to the level of pain, they might have actually been able to withstand the invasion of the toxins and exchange blows with Xiao Du a couple more times.

Unfortunately, Mu Yun didn't want to give him time to adapt.

"Little Du, use Venom Impact!"

"Hiss!"

Xiao Du opened its mouth again, and a wisp of purplish-black venom formed in its mouth like ripples of water.

This is the core move of Poison-type Pokémon, a divine skill that can deal double damage to Pokémon that are poisoned!

With the added bonus from the stats, the venom can inflict an additional 200% corrosive effect on the bodies of poisoned creatures.

"Oh no! Azure Flame Blade Demon, get out of the way!"

Upon hearing Mu Yun's command, Liu Hesheng, standing on the blue team, changed his expression and immediately shouted.

Because he was in such a hurry, his voice was hoarse as he shouted.

"ashamed!"

The Azure Flame Blade Demon, suffering from the pain of being corroded by the poison, tried to get up, but having worn armor since childhood, he had almost never experienced pain, let alone the kind of pain of being devoured by thousands of ants.

The fact that he can stay awake at this moment is already a testament to his strong willpower.

There's no extra energy left to do anything unnecessary.

"Hiss!"

As Azure Flame Blade Demon struggled desperately to get up, Little Du had already finished charging up his power.

Blackish-purple venom was spat out, easily hitting the kneeling Azure Flame Blade Demon.

scoff~~~

In an instant, it felt as if concentrated sulfuric acid was corroding the skin, or as if the sound of chicken being cooked in a frying pan rang out in the room.

Enveloped in terrifying venom, Azure Flame Blade Demon felt as if the "ants" that had been gnawing at his chest had fallen into a state of chaotic rage, beginning to expand wildly outwards.

The indescribable, intense pain caused Azure Flame Blade Demon to finally give in.

With a thud, he fell to the ground.

My eyes turned into mosquito coils.

He was so hurt that he fainted...

"Azure Blade Demon is unable to fight. The winner is the red team member, Beedrill!"

The system's notification sound and the referee's voice rang out almost simultaneously.

"Azure Flame Blade Demon actually lost..."

Looking at the fallen Azure Flame Blade Demon, Liu Hesheng muttered to himself in a daze.

Azure Flame Blade Demon is not invincible; he naturally knows that.

However, losing to his peers, especially in such a sudden way, caught him somewhat off guard.

How could a poison needle and a poison blast cause more damage than the previous Dark-type moves?

Liu Hesheng didn't understand.

"Before you stop spacing out, I suggest you take him to the medical room to detoxify him as soon as possible."

Seeing Liu Hesheng standing there in a daze, Mu Yun kindly reminded him.

Although the protective armor of her mother greatly increases the Azure Flame Blade Demon's resistance to poison, problems are bound to arise as the time drags on.

Upon hearing Mu Yun's words, Liu Hesheng finally snapped out of his daze, put away the Azure Flame Blade Ghost, and ran towards the medical room.

"Excuse me, I need to go to the medical room to check on the child."

Upon seeing Liu Hesheng leave, Tao Jingyuan also got up and walked away from the special guest seat.

As a breeder, she was very curious about just how terrifying the venom of this giant bee was, that even the Azure Flame Blade Demon couldn't withstand it.

Or rather, if even the Azure Flame Blade Demon couldn't withstand it, then an ordinary spirit would probably lose half its life if it were to be hit.
