Chapter 105: Little Peach’s Debut
Just now, as soon as the match between Ge Bai and Shi Chenliang ended, Professor Luo Wan and Principal Hu Shuo stood up and walked toward the arena.
When Professor Luo Wan reached the edge of the arena, Big Willow’s treatment had just finished.
Ge Bai, who had been restless with worry for Big Willow, saw Professor Luo Wan and let out a long sigh of relief, as if finding a savior.
With a gaze filled with concern, she looked toward Professor Luo Wan.
Professor Luo Wan patted Ge Bai’s shoulder, then crouched down, circulated spiritual power within her body, reached out to touch Big Willow, and tried to communicate using spiritual sense.
Moments later, Professor Luo Wan withdrew her hand.
In a relaxed tone, she said to Ge Bai, “Don’t worry, it’s fine. He has entered a deep meditation state.”
“Put him back in your spiritual consciousness space, and check on his condition every once in a while. If nothing unexpected happens, he should wake up within 24 hours.”
Professor Luo Wan secretly sighed in her heart at Ge Bai and Big Willow’s good luck. Big Willow was still just a Mortal Spirit Realm spirit plant, yet it had comprehended a nascent domain so early.
And after comprehending the nascent domain, it entered a deep meditation state. One had to say Big Willow had excellent aptitude.
Each of these events alone was rare, and having them happen consecutively was something one could only chance upon.
As expected of Professor Luo Wan, who was well-informed. She briefly explained the relevant principles to Ge Bai.
Because she saw how worried Ge Bai was, afraid that even just telling her Big Willow was fine wouldn’t reassure her.
Hearing Professor Luo Wan say a couple more sentences, Ge Bai finally completely relaxed and put Big Willow back into her spiritual consciousness space.
“Chief Referee, I apply for event arbitration, requesting a re-verification of the issue regarding Ge Bai’s high-speed spiritual power recovery on the venue during the match.”
At this time, Shi Chenliang made a serious and loud application.
After the healer cast two healing spells in succession, the injuries of the Empty Mirror Doll lying in Shi Chenliang’s arms had stabilized.
The originally deep explosive wound had been mostly repaired.
Although the Empty Mirror Doll still looked somewhat weak, it had actually escaped life-threatening danger and just needed to rest quietly back home.
After the previous failure, Shi Chenliang had calmed his emotions.
Even seeing Principal Hu Shuo standing at the edge of the venue, and Coach Zheng Mingchun and Coach Ping Ningyan walking down from the stage toward here, he acted as if he hadn’t seen them.
He calmly stared at the chief referee teacher of this match, his voice carrying a hint of insistence and coolness.
Indeed, applying for post-match arbitration was his right, and no one looking on could change that.
“Ge Bai’s pet beast used at least three spiritual power recovery items during the battle, which should be a kind of fruit.”
Shi Chenliang added.
He really did want to know what kind of spiritual power recovery material Ge Bai had used.
It had to be said that his eyesight was sharp.
Qian Dai had indeed taken out three Spirit Recovery Peaches from the space bag—one used on herself, and two on Big Willow.
The chief referee teacher was clearly experienced, showing no panic upon hearing Shi Chenliang’s appeal. He nodded to him and turned his gaze to Ge Bai.
Even without Shi Chenliang mentioning it, re-verifying the sudden situation on the field was a necessary procedure.
Professor Luo Wan smiled faintly and stood by without speaking. How could she not know about Little Peach’s situation?
It was just that the Jinggang Spirit Plant Research Institute had been too busy lately, and hadn’t announced the situation of the Golden Powder Peach Demon Tree contracted by Ge Bai.
The others all focused their gazes on Ge Bai, showing great curiosity about the peach in her arms.
Ge Bai seemed completely unconcerned. Ever since becoming a spirit planter and contracting Big Willow, Little Peach, and Qian Dai, she often became the center of attention and was used to this atmosphere.
Though she couldn’t yet claim to be unmoved by honor or disgrace, she was at least handling it with ease.
Ge Bai gently stroked Little Peach and whispered a couple of sentences to her. Seeing Little Peach nod, she held her up a bit higher.
“This is the Golden Powder Peach Demon Tree I contracted. She awakened a skill called Spirit Recovery Peach. After using it, it can quickly recover a pet beast’s spiritual power.”
“The ones Qian Dai and Big Willow used on the field just now were this kind of Spirit Recovery Peach.”
As Ge Bai spoke, Little Peach cooperatively circulated spiritual power and condensed another Spirit Recovery Peach right in front of everyone.
Ge Bai picked the Spirit Recovery Peach from Little Peach’s branch and handed it to the chief referee.
The chief referee took the Spirit Recovery Peach with both hands and called over two healers to examine it together.
“Impossible! I know about the Golden Powder Peach Demon Tree spirit plant. The fruit it condenses has the effect of slowly increasing a pet beast’s spiritual power, but the intensity isn’t enough to use as a recovery potion on the venue!”
Chu Qiang had already rushed to the first row of the grandstand area. He was simply too curious about Ge Bai’s spirit plants.
Before the chief referee could announce the result, he couldn’t help but interject.
What he said was actually correct, but what he knew was about ordinary Golden Powder Peach Demon Trees.
Just like the Black Card Fruit that Wu Da Mi contracted in the spirit plant garden, the Golden Powder Peach Demon Tree actually had a stable supply of seedlings.
Hearing someone question it, Professor Luo Wan slightly furrowed her brow, then spoke up.
“The Golden Powder Peach Demon Tree that Ge Bai contracted is different—it’s a spirit plant with Commander Bloodline.”
“From gene sequencing, the Spirit Recovery Peach she condenses is completely different from that of ordinary Golden Powder Peach Demon Trees, and it does indeed have the effect of rapid spiritual power recovery.”
“Some time ago, the Jinggang Spirit Plant Research Institute conducted a comprehensive measurement on this Golden Powder Peach Demon Tree. Information about the Spirit Recovery Peach will be sent to Jinggang No. 1 Middle School soon, and our research institute vouches for the authenticity of the measurement results.”
With Professor Luo Wan saying this, what was there left to question?
Upon hearing Professor Luo Wan, the chief referee teacher exchanged a glance with the two healers.
Both healers nodded—they had indeed sensed strong spiritual power fluctuations from this fruit, and there was no issue.
Now with affirmative responses from both healers and endorsement from a big shot at the Jinggang Spirit Plant Research Institute, it was naturally fine.
The chief referee subtly glanced at his own principal, seeing him standing there with a smile and no extra reaction, then steadied himself and faced Shi Chenliang.
“Appeal rejected. Spirit Planter Ge Bai using spiritual power recovery fruit condensed by her contracted pet beast during the match falls within the rules and does not constitute a violation.”
As he spoke, he handed the Spirit Recovery Peach back to Ge Bai.
Ge Bai took the Spirit Recovery Peach, along with the one in her pocket, and gave them to Qian Dai on her shoulder to store in the space bag, while secretly breathing a sigh of relief.
It wasn’t about feeling sorry for using up the Spirit Recovery Peaches; it was that Little Peach really disliked others using her fruit. If they had to use a Spirit Recovery Peach on the spot to verify its authenticity, she would have had to do some persuading with Little Peach.
This outcome saved Ge Bai a lot of trouble.
Thinking this, Ge Bai gave Professor Luo Wan a grateful look.
No one noticed that Chu Qiang in the grandstands had his mouth wide open and was completely petrified.
