Is it difficult to evolve your beast?

Chapter 85 Challenge

Jiang Feng looked in that direction.

Little Flower pounced over there, pinning the phantom beast down with one paw and forming a tight net of vines around it.

That's why this course needs a relatively powerful beast tamer to teach it.

Many mythical beasts lose control when they unleash their skills for the first time, causing harm to their fellow players.

The student's summoned beast was wind-type, and the wind blades it released almost hit other students next to it.

The magical beast was grabbed by the back of its neck, looking aggrieved. Under Xiao Hua's restraint, it whimpered and looked pitifully at its master.

The beast tamer rushed over and reached out his hand to it.

"Never use skills directly on your classmates!"

"Students with obvious aggressive tendencies, please keep your distance from the other students!"

Fang Zheng had just arrived here, and in fact, this training camp was his first batch of students.

So I forgot to give instructions at the beginning.

Fortunately, that student was not injured.

At this stage, a Beast Tamer would probably be unable to defend against a Tier 1 Phantom Beast's attack. One wind blade would tear the student's clothes and likely injure them.

Their theoretical courses weren't taught by doctors.

The student who had just stood in front of that mythical beast also reached out and touched his chest, feeling as if he had been given a second chance at life.

"But don't worry too much, Xiaohua will keep an eye on everyone's movements and won't let you be in any danger." Fang Zheng looked at all the students who still looked shaken and said reassuringly to them.

"Releasing a skill is a good thing. Next, you need to learn how to control it." Fang Zheng walked over to the classmate who was holding her pet and said to her, "Control the direction, distance, timing, and transitions between reality and illusion when releasing the skill."

These words weren't spoken in a low voice; the entire training ground was quiet at that moment, and everyone heard them.

"Students who succeed should accurately test the time required for their pet to release skills, the duration of the skills, and the consumption of their pet's magical energy."

"The more you understand the skills of your pets, the greater the power you will unleash in battle."

"If it's a skill that increases or decreases damage, you can ask me to help test it, and ask your classmates for help too." The facilities at this school in Jinyang City aren't very good.

Within the four academies, there are specialized testing instruments that don't require human assistance; all that's needed is for the summoned beast to unleash its skills, and they can display specific numerical values.

But it's not available here. After all, that kind of thing hasn't been around for very long, and it's quite expensive. So far, it hasn't been widely adopted.

Therefore, students can only rely on their intuition to conduct tests, without access to professional equipment.

However, in a few years, when they go to university, that device should be widely available.

"Take a break first. Do you know what your pet likes to eat? Use its favorite food to soothe its emotions, and then find an open space to continue the test."

Fang Zheng patted her on the shoulder and praised her, "Very good."

She rubbed her pet's head with her hand, a smile appearing on her face.

Inside the training ground, everyone adjusted their positions and emotions, continuing to communicate with their own mythical beasts.

On Yin Jiao's side, Tu Muwo had already erected a wall of earth energy in front of her. It wasn't real soil, so it wouldn't obstruct her view forward.

Yin Jiao's lips curled into a smile, and then a wall appeared in front of Jiang Feng and Yao Yue.

The two of them took a step back and looked at Yin Jiao simultaneously: "Jiao Jiao?"

"Mythical beasts can transform energy and matter into the real and the unreal. This one should be quite hard, right?" Yin Jiao reached out and touched the almost transparent yellow shell in front of him.

It feels quite hard when you tap it?

However, Yin Jiao did not let the skill last for long and quickly withdrew it.

"This skill consumes a lot of my illusion power."

"Currently, establishing four protective walls at once should not be a problem, but if we want to maintain these four walls simultaneously, it will probably only last for thirty seconds." Yin Jiao thought for a moment and gave a relatively accurate figure.

On Yao Yue's side, the Black and White Firebird also spat out a small fireball, which flew far away, but it looked somewhat light and had no offensive power.

"We need to turn the fireball into a fire blade," Fang Zheng said to Yao Yue after seeing the situation.

The fireball's attack power isn't very high. Even if it falls from the sky and gains gravitational acceleration through free fall to increase its force when it hits an enemy, such an attack is too easy for people to dodge or defend against.

Moreover, the firebird must be extremely high to achieve that.

However, the fireball's energy is reduced during the friction process with the air.

However, the ability to release a fireball suggests that this skill can be transformed into a fire blade later.

"Why don't you let it look at more things related to knives?" Fang Zheng suggested.

"Chirp chirp!" Upon hearing this, the black and white firebird puffed out its chest and chirped beside it.

Then it spat out an oval-shaped fireball.

"Chirp." The flamingo sat on Yao Yue's shoulder, burying its head in the fur on her chest.

"It's okay, it's okay, we'll take it slowly." Yao Yue quickly reached out and hugged it, and took out the bamboo shoots and paulownia leaves that it liked to eat from her spatial storage and placed them in front of it.

The finches raised their heads and began to eat slowly.

While eating, he didn't forget to face everyone with his buttocks and bury his head in Yao Yue's hands.

Fang Zheng chuckled at the sight, then said to Yin Jiao and Jiang Feng, "Jiang Feng, try having the Fighting Deer simultaneously buff the Earth Snail and the Fire Sparrow."

"Let Firebird try attacking the amplified 'Earth Wall' later."

"Okay." The three agreed, and soon Ren Wu also released the skills of his phantom beast.

His magical beast was a small dog with a single horn and big ears shaped like hearts. Jiang Feng couldn't tell what kind of magical beast it was for a moment.

"This is a Linfeng Dog, it's still a puppy, and it's very fast."

Although the skill is also a wind blade, there are differences between different wind blades.

However, as Fang Zheng mentioned earlier, this naming method for pet skills is only a common understanding between humans and pets. In reality, each pet's skills are different.

"I've decided to call this skill [Wind Claw]."

"Chicken feet?"

"Wind, not phoenix," Ren Wu explained. After saying that, he said to his magical beast, "Xiao Ai, try again."

"Woof!" The puppy ran forward quickly, its paws slashing forward, leaving a sizable claw mark in the air.

What would happen if this attack hit the enemy?

After doing all this, the Wind Dog wagged its tail and sat down in front of Ren Wu. Ren Wu took out a piece of dog food and placed it in front of it.

There's no way around it, this dog's favorite food is dog food. Ever since it formed a contract with Ren Wu, it has fallen in love with the taste of the kind of dog food that ordinary puppies eat.

"You try out the power of that earthen wall later." Fang Zheng was very satisfied that the group had been able to get the phantom beast to use its skills so quickly, and then went to the side to instruct the other students.

There are forty people in the class, and five of them have successfully used the skill so far. That's not bad.

Because there were fewer people in their class, everyone was standing quite far apart. While Yin Jiao was standing, he was already circulating his cultivation technique to restore his illusionary power.

Restoring illusionary power and cultivating illusionary power are two different things.

It is obviously much easier to get back what you already have than to get what you don't have.

However, the recovery speed is not that fast, which is why people need to consider their illusion power status and recovery status during battle.

"I'll buff you first, then you can try attacking that earthen wall."

After Jiang Feng finished speaking, he turned on his phone and stopped the watch the moment the antlers lit up.

With this attribute bonus, there's naturally no need to constantly output magic power.

Except for personal use.

Jiang Feng even suspected that the heat generated by the deer's antlers and the ability to amplify other people were two separate skills, but the deer was unaware that they were two separate skills, and Jiang Feng was not entirely clear about it at the moment.

Just now, when he released that amplification, Jiang Feng could feel the illusion power dissipate in that instant, and the feeling of the illusion power slowly dissipating when the antlers on the deer's head glowed.

After they go back, they can see how other deer fight and maybe get some inspiration.

After the amplification effect was applied, Yao Yue stretched out her hands and looked at them, a hint of surprise on her face. The feeling of feeling lighter all over was mesmerizing!

"Are you ready, Jiao Jiao?" Yao Yue reached out and ruffled Fei Yun's hair.

The little guy was withdrawn for a while and hasn't recovered yet.

"Ready, you can begin." I built an earthen wall over there to attack, so that even if we failed, we wouldn't get hurt.

Just now, Yin Jiao built an earthen wall in front of them.

But now we're testing an attack, and it wouldn't be good if something unexpected happened and someone got hurt.

They don't have much control over these things right now.

"Okay!" Ren Wu and Yao Yue both nodded.

The fighting deer beside it watched the two phantom beasts unleash their attacks, and it moved its hooves, as if trying to charge forward.

"It's hot," it said to Jiang Feng, "and I want to rush over."

"Can you stop the horns from getting hot?" Upon hearing this, Jiang Feng hurriedly reached out to soothe the fighting deer.

She knew exactly what was going on when Doulu rushed out.

"I'll try." Dou Lu's voice held a hint of grievance. "I want to fight."

There's something inside the corner.

What it said left Jiang Feng somewhat confused.

Jiang Feng could only soothe it and put the red bean fruit it liked to eat near its mouth.

Then the light on the deer antlers gradually faded.

But the feeling of lightness throughout my body did not disappear.

She said, "The illusionary power disappeared so quickly just now, there must be something wrong!"

"Teacher Fang!" Jiang Feng led Doulu towards that direction.

"The heat generated by Yu Zhuo's horns and the initial glow are not the same skill!" she said to Fang Zheng.

"It said its horn was in pain and it wanted to fight others."

"Hmm... let's give it a try then." Fang Zheng said, and let Xiao Hua come over from the side.

"Little Flower doesn't know how to use attack skills, let it try fighting Little Flower."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Feng's eyes lit up, but then he looked at Dou Lu with some concern and asked, "Is it alright?"

Doulu naturally understood what Fangzheng said, and it looked at Xiaohua beside it.

The beast had already suppressed its aura, but it still made other beasts feel its terror.

Although deer are aggressive, they are not all fools.

"I won't get hurt," Jiang Feng said to Dou Lu in his heart.

As a sparring partner, Xiaohua naturally wouldn't easily cause Doulu any harm.

"Okay!" Doulu immediately agreed.

If it's not a life-or-death battle, it's not afraid to take on challenges that it clearly has no chance of winning.

Xiaohua and Doulu stood in the very center of the training field.

Jiang Feng and Fang Zheng stood together. Jiang Feng was very nervous and looked at Fang Zheng, asking, "What should I do?"

"Give it magical power."

"Don't worry, it's probably about to learn a second skill, that's why it's upset."

Doulu is combative, so he said, "How could there only be amplification skills?"

"You've noticed this very carefully. Having a second skill sooner is good for both you and Doulu."

"They have a fighting instinct, and when they don't need to fight in coordination with the beast tamer, mythical beasts like the Fighting Deer, which are naturally good at fighting, can perform quite well."

"You need to learn to cooperate with it."

Beastmasters and their magical beasts learn from each other.

Fang Zheng appeared very relaxed, but Jiang Feng was not. Dou Lu used his skill again, and Jiang Feng could feel the consumption of his illusionary power.

"Circulate your cultivation technique to replenish your illusionary power," Fang Zheng reminded him from the side. "You need to learn to disperse your mental energy so that you can replenish your illusionary power while observing the battlefield."

"Your current mental strength should be sufficient for you to do both of these things simultaneously."

Judging from the time Jiang Feng has been cultivating, her current spiritual strength should be comparable to that of Yin Jiao and the others.

Fang Zheng also felt a little strange, since the initial mental strength of 29 points increased to around 40 or 50 points after contracting the Fighting Deer, which was indeed a bit too much.

But the fighting deer in front of us is at the peak of the first tier...

The growth of a Beast Tamer's mental strength is not immediate after contracting a magical beast. Rather, it occurs as the tamer and the magical beast develop a deeper understanding and rapport.

Just like Yao Yue's black and white firebird, if it were to fully resonate with Yao Yue, it would allow Yao Yue's spiritual power to rise even higher.

Could it be that the compatibility between Jiang Feng and Dou Lu was already very high when they made the contract?

This is not impossible, after all, it is a deer fight, which only a few people own, and it cannot be deduced by common sense.

In the center, the battle between Yu Zhuo and Xiao Hua officially began. Everyone stopped what they were doing, retreating while looking towards the center.
