Is it difficult to evolve your beast?

Chapter 174 Battle

"A beast tamer without offensive skills only needs to survive for three minutes without sustaining any wounds to win."

After the teacher finished speaking, the students below started to discuss it.

This is obviously a bit sad for Beastmasters who only have amplification skills.

Beastmasters with healing skills can completely heal their wounds after being injured.

Beastmasters with defensive skills can use their defensive skills to block the opponent's skills.

For Beastmasters with only Amplification skills, Amplification increases attributes and applies to other skills.

Therefore, they can only rely on the shields they have learned to protect themselves from harm.

Of course, this is somewhat unfair to beast tamers with offensive attributes.

However, everyone can accept that it is obviously impossible for an opponent to defeat them without any offensive skills.

"The rules for this tournament are special; from the next tournament onwards, there will be no such restrictions."

The school will teach students illusion techniques. Even if their own magical beasts do not have offensive capabilities, the beast tamer can still possess them.

At the first level, the abilities of the Beastmaster and the Beast are actually not much different.

It's only as you progress that the difference between the individual abilities of humans and mythical beasts becomes more and more apparent.

After hearing what the teacher said, everyone calmed down.

This is the most we can expect. If we don't get first place or those points this time, it doesn't matter.

"To save time, we'll split into two arenas." After the teacher finished speaking, the arenas on the stage began to change.

It went from one to two.

"The champion is selected from top to bottom based on the test rankings. Of course, if someone else successfully challenges the champion, they automatically become the new champion."

"The first place in the entrance exam is Jiang Feng, and the second place is Yin Jiao."

Jiang Feng and Yin Jiao were not surprised at all when they heard the other's name.

The two exchanged a glance, and Yin Jiao said, "Perfect, this way we won't clash."

Yao Yue, who was standing next to them, watched the two of them go on stage and felt a little eager to try.

After understanding the rules for earning points, the points earned this month were no longer of much importance to them.

Moreover, in their first year of high school, they have so much to learn. In addition to academic subjects, the school will also teach them a unique illusion technique.

They shouldn't try to do too much at once. Since they had already planned to earn points on the battlefield, they naturally didn't care about the small amount of points they had now.

Yao Yue looked at Jiang Feng.

It's pointless to fight with that snail shell of Jiao Jiao.

At that moment, Jiang Feng met Yao Yue's gaze and smiled at her.

After the teacher called out the names of Jiang Feng and Yin Jiao, the people around them started talking about it.

After hearing Jiang Feng's self-introduction yesterday, the students in Class A still thought that Jiang Feng was just a light-attribute beast tamer with buff skills.

But after learning that she was in first place, I completely abandoned that idea.

They have all experienced real-world testing and know how difficult it is to get a score in real-world testing.

Getting good grades in other subjects is definitely not easy either.

"Isn't that Yin Jiao a defensive character?"

"Her defense is very strong! Jiang Feng is also very strong, and her attack skills are very cool." Now that all one hundred people have arrived, Jiang Feng saw several of his classmates from Class S during the training camp.

Upon hearing the words "attack skill," everyone's gaze towards Jiang Feng changed slightly.

"However, that attack skill must be her trump card. She fainted the first time she used it during the training camp."

"Then I did use it during the competition, but in a single competition, it can only be used twice at most."

Those below naturally want to achieve a higher ranking.

In addition to points, you can also get a lot of other resources from the monthly exams.

For example, there are magic stones, magic crystals, and rare magic treasures that are beneficial to their magic beasts.

The higher your ranking in the monthly exam, the more you will receive.

Jiang Feng and his group only focused on the points, because other things were relatively unimportant to them.

The others were weighing the pros and cons, striving to achieve a higher ranking in the monthly exam.

Therefore, students who were not in Class A naturally did not dare to go up at this time.

They all wanted to wait a little longer, hoping that the two of them would both be severely injured before they went up.

As for the students in Class A, some were eager to try, while others still wanted to wait.

Jiang Feng and Yao Yue have already started, while on Yin Jiao's side, her personal information has already been displayed on the panel.

Ren Wu stood below, somewhat conflicted.

He wanted to fight Yin Jiao; they had never fought before.

Jiang Feng and Yao Yue had already experienced the power of Yin Jiao's defense firsthand, having suffered losses from it in previous matches.

So I don't want to fight Yin Jiao right now.

But Ren Wu never did.

But if he goes up there, their strengths should be about the same, right?

I wonder how far she's grown. If the difference is too big, wouldn't it be too embarrassing?

Yin Jiao wasn't too surprised. She didn't have many offensive methods at the moment, which meant that whoever came up had to be able to injure her within three minutes.

Given her defensive capabilities, this is practically impossible.

Her gaze finally landed on the familiar Ren Wu, who became even more conflicted after being looked at by her.

On the other side, Yao Yue and Jiang Feng had already started fighting.

As soon as Yao Yue entered the arena, she unleashed her new skill.

The ring of fire flew straight toward Jiang Feng.

However, Jiang Feng was no pushover now, and he used evasion to dodge directly.

Then, illusion techniques materialized on his hands.

"What is this?"

"Illusion techniques?" Everyone was naturally familiar with illusion techniques, since everyone had learned three during the training camp.

However, none of those three were related to attacks.

Yao Yue's face also showed a hint of surprise.

However, it wasn't just Jiang Feng who made such an improvement during this period.

A smile appeared on Yao Yue's face. The moment Jiang Feng's attack came towards her, she dodged it and condensed a long sword made of illusionary power in her hand, slashing towards Jiang Feng.

Jiang Feng was slightly surprised when he saw this.

It seems that everyone has made great progress during this period, and it's not just me who has improved.

Her footsteps began to change.

The [Dodge] skill has significant limitations. Yao Yue has blocked several directions, which is obviously a precaution against the [Dodge] skill.

Jiang Feng can only use Shadow Step.

The skill 【Shadow Step】 allows one to move between shadows. Fortunately, there are shadows on Dou Lu's side, and they are not covered by Yao Yue's attack.

The moment all the attacks arrived, Jiang Feng's figure vanished.

Then she conjured the Yin-Yang Slash in her hand and slashed it towards Yao Yue.

Before Yao Yue could figure out where Jiang Feng was, the Yin-Yang Slash was already close to her.

She took out her shield to block, but the shield shattered instantly. Yao Yue rolled backward, and cuts appeared on her hands.

Fortunately, she wasn't knocked off the stage; the blows were too normal, and neither of them held back.

With several teachers standing nearby, they weren't afraid of any problems arising from the other side and could fight to their hearts' content.

The students below the stage watched intently, making Yin Jiao's battle seem rather boring in comparison.

Some people thought that since Yin Jiao had no offensive skills, even if they went up, they could still retain some stamina.

However, once you get up there, you realize how much pressure there is. The opponent's airtight defense is incredibly frustrating, as if no matter what you do, you can't hurt them in the slightest.

The battle between Jiang Feng and Yao Yue lasted even longer. By the time Yin Jiao's side had eliminated three people, they still hadn't decided the winner.

However, both of them were injured.

The bloodstains congealed on their bodies, but their eyes grew increasingly resolute.

Jiang Feng's [Shadow of Light] has already been released once.

This is not the most powerful version I used when dealing with the teacher.

However, Yao Yue had already taken precautions against Jiang Feng's [Shadow of Light] and had previously considered how to defend herself if she encountered it.

So at that moment, she was able to dodge.

Avoiding this is not enough.

Previously, Jiang Feng had no offensive skills. Now, in addition to the [Shadow of Light] from the Fighting Deer, Jiang Feng also has the Yin-Yang Slash.

Yao Yue's body was covered in more and more wounds.

But Jiang Feng didn't gain any advantage either.

Large swathes of fire blades rained down on her, like a barrage of knives, the intense heat dulling her senses.

Doulu also suffered damage.

After learning about Jiang Feng's second evasion skill, Yao Yue had the Black and White Firebirds unleash their recently mastered area-of-effect attack.

The flames fell to the ground, and the arena floor seemed to melt.

Jiang Feng's mind raced as he pondered when Yao Yue's illusionary power would run out.

Such skills consume a lot of magic power.

Jiang Feng had been looking forward to their battle for a long time, and today was indeed a great opportunity.

There were countless teachers around, ensuring they wouldn't get hurt.

They weren't yet familiar with each other's new skills, which made their matches more surprising and allowed them to feel each other's progress.

Struck by another fireball, Jiang Feng bent over and then reached out to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth.

Over there, Yao Yue smiled at Jiang Feng, her smile radiant.

Jiang Feng also laughed.

"Yuzhuo." She felt that was about right.

Yao Yue's illusionary power has been almost completely exhausted.

On the arena, the stunning light and shadow appeared once again, but this time it didn't charge forward and rampage as before; instead, it formed an encirclement.

Yao Yue's eyes widened as she stared in the direction the deer was coming from, and she instantly raised her hand: "Teacher, I surrender!"

Then, the teacher appeared beside Yao Yue, raised four shields to block the attack of the fighting deer, and was also somewhat shocked.

"Jiang Feng wins; the ring challenge will continue in ten minutes."

Yao Yue was taken away, while Jiang Feng was given a simple healing spell by the teacher to treat his wounds.

Jiang Feng sat down on the ground and began to quickly recover his illusionary power.

After the previous round of battles, the teacher will treat them. When defending the arena, the biggest concern is the depletion of their magical energy.

However, ten minutes is not enough time to recover.

On Yin Jiao's side, they are already facing their fifth enemy, and this fifth enemy is very strong.

It's the same beast tamer with the mental attribute from before.

He and Yin Jiao had never fought each other, because his team had been eliminated by Jiang Feng earlier.

"Mental attributes?"

"A shield can't do anything against mental attributes, right?" The people below the stage seemed to have already foreseen Yin Jiao's defeat.

Only Yao Yue, who was receiving treatment, and Ren Wu, who was standing next to her, chuckled after hearing what those people were saying.

"This is going to be interesting. I wonder how much Jiao Jiao's mental strength has improved during this time."

Yin Jiao's mental strength was already very strong, and in this short period of time, he has further practiced illusion techniques.

During this period, they all tried their best to make up for their shortcomings and increase their strengths.

Yin Jiao possessed exceptional mental strength, so naturally he wouldn't neglect the cultivation of mental power.

"She said she's made a breakthrough in her second skill," Ren Wu said to Yao Yue.

"And for her second skill to break through, she needs a breakthrough in mental strength, which I think is likely already over a hundred!"

Ren Wu whispered to Yao Yue.

Upon hearing this, Yao Yue nodded: "There should be around a hundred."

Many beast tamers do not have 100 points of mental energy after entering the second stage.

The growth of mental strength is extremely slow and difficult.

"Skills with low mental strength are almost ineffective against people with high mental strength."

While offensive skills might still be able to harm Yin Jiao, mental skills, at their current stage, are generally not something that can control Yin Jiao unless one's mental strength is significantly higher than Yin Jiao's.

So now a rather strange scene has appeared on stage.

Yin Jiao stood on the stage, tilting his head to look at the other person.

Shi Shan stood still, motionless.

"What are you doing?"

"That man is a spirit-attribute beast tamer, using his skills. Look at his summoned beast."

"Has Yin Jiao been infected?"

"Obviously not. She looked very relaxed, as if the opponent's attack hadn't hit her at all."

Shi Shan hadn't expected that his repeated hints would have no effect on the other party whatsoever.

He lost a competition a while ago, and in the following two months, he underwent a lot of training at home.

I originally thought that I would be able to fight Jiang Feng again and control her well, making her look bad.

But unexpectedly, they failed when dealing with this person?

"Why don't you just admit defeat? Your skills are useless against me." Yin Jiao looked at the other party, whose face had turned pale.
