Chapter 38: Sitting Under The Willow Tree, Stroking A Peach
“No problem, but the other day, your other Sparring Partner didn’t say that this training method is the most suitable right now?” Flower Shirt’s casual voice came through the earphones.
Ge Bai was stunned, but reacted quickly.
“What he said is also correct, but as training progresses, the most suitable training method will also change.”
Anyway, she is now a Gold Medal Trainer, whatever she says makes sense, and she doesn’t feel guilty at all. The battle method is of course better for training effect for the Pet Beast.
“No extra charge, right? Previously it was said that battle is more expensive than pure Sparring Partner.”
This time Ge Bai fell silent. Yun He Martial Arts School calculates really meticulously.
But to exploit this BUG, she decided to make a small sacrifice of her own interests as a Sparring Partner.
“Mr. Sun, rest assured, adding some Sparring forms in Sparring doesn’t require separate charging. It’s actually not real battle, just a variant of Sparring, which can be considered an additional service we provide you.”
“After all, I really think practicing this way will have better effects on improving all aspects of your Pet Beast.”
Ge Bai curried favor with the other party, plus output a wave of sentiment.
Flower Shirt indeed agreed, “Okay, okay, then I’ll trouble you.”
Just then, Big Willow hit the Lynx with a Wind Blade. Ge Bai patted Big Willow and briefly explained the next training method.
“Big Willow, you must repel the Lynx at the end.”
“No more one Wind Blade per second?”
Big Willow asked very seriously.
“The first one or two waves are still one per second. If he dodges, you directly maximum frequency Wind Blades. If close, use Willow Whip.”
Ge Bai was very clear about priorities. As a Sparring Partner, being a bit stronger than the Sparring Partner object is normal.
After instructing Big Willow, she immediately walked to the Lynx’s side and helped Flower Shirt carefully explain the changes in training method.
The Lynx’s dark pupils looked at its own Beast Tamer for a while, then at Ge Bai, nodding as if understanding but not quite.
It retreated to the farthest point directly opposite Big Willow, posing in preparation to charge.
Big Willow was very familiar with this kind of Sparring. Seeing the Lynx move, it first issued Wind Blades at the previous Sparring frequency.
This time, besides dodging Wind Blades, the Lynx also needed to plan a route forward, much more strenuous than before.
Barely dodging a few Wind Blades, Big Willow didn’t directly instant-cast five or six Wind Blades to block the Lynx’s advance route, but quietly increased the Wind Blade issuance speed a bit, predicted the Lynx’s route, and smoothly intercepted it beyond the halfway point.
The Wind Blade intensity was still deliberately suppressed. The Lynx wasn’t injured, just retreated two steps following the force of the Wind Blade.
He was a bit unconvinced, but very obediently followed the previously agreed rules and stopped advancing after being hit by the Wind Blade.
“Meow!”
The Lynx turned and walked back to the starting point, not forgetting to meow twice toward its own Beast Tamer.
Flower Shirt’s voice soon came through Ge Bai’s earphones, “Can we do this form of Sparring a few more times?”
[Defeat (Repel) Spirit Plant Spirit Beast Task Progress: Below First Order (8/100), Above First Order (0/10)]
Sure enough, this BUG was exploited. Ge Bai was delighted and replied to Flower Shirt very cheerfully.
“No problem, then the next ten minutes will all use this Sparring Partner method.”
Big Willow’s Skills got trained, task progress steadily increased, and there’s extra income to earn. One arrow hits three targets, achievement unlocked.
Ge Bai was really too happy, contentedly sitting back beside Big Willow.
Seeing both sides gradually getting on track, Ge Bai flipped one page back in the Spirit Plant Cultivation Atlas.
[Type: Golden Powder Peach Demon Tree]
[Spiritual Power Value: Zero Order First Level (27/100)]
[Beginner Attribute: Life Element]
[Skills: Spirit Recovery Peach-Beginner (0/100); Bewitching Peach Fragrance-Beginner (37/100); Golden Powder Peach-Beginner (0/100)]
Little Peach is a bit too laid-back.
These two days Ge Bai and Big Willow haven’t been idle, while Little Peach is purely just idling.
Except for the Skill “Bewitching Peach Fragrance” which gained some Skill Points passively, all others are stagnant.
Looking at Little Peach’s attribute panel, compared to Big Willow, Ge Bai felt anxious like an old mother hoping for her child’s success, as if completely forgetting that two days ago she was still comforting herself that Little Peach is truly just a child.
The anxious Ge Bai summoned Little Peach, preparing to have an in-depth exchange with it.
“Peach~”
Little Peach is a pro at acting cute. Seeing this adorable peach, Ge Bai’s heart softened again.
How about giving the child a happy childhood? Anxiety turned into hesitation.
[Bewitching Peach Fragrance-Beginner (38/100)]
While looking at the Spirit Plant Cultivation Atlas, Ge Bai noticed that the Bewitching Peach Fragrance Skill Points were still continuously increasing.
Something’s not right.
Ge Bai glanced at the peach in front of her, then at the Lynx opposite.
The Striped Ghost-Eyed Lynx seemed unaffected by Bewitching Peach Fragrance, training normally as before.
Could Little Peach’s Bewitching Peach Fragrance only work on small and medium-sized monkey-type Spirit Beasts? Definitely not.
Or maybe Little Peach’s Spiritual Power Value is too low, so its Bewitching Peach Fragrance can only affect Spirit Beasts or Spirit Plants with similar Spiritual Power Value to it.
Another possibility: the passively emitted Bewitching Peach Fragrance effect isn’t as good as actively emitted.
Quickly boosting Little Peach’s Spiritual Power Value isn’t realistic, but actively emitting Bewitching Peach Fragrance can be properly discussed.
“Little Peach, how have you been resting these two days? Are you used to the Spiritual Consciousness Space?”
If Ge Bai had a fox tail, it would be wagging by now.
Little Peach still had that dazed, silly, milky appearance.
“Pretty good! The Nutrient Solution is tasty!”
Ge Bai lifted Little Peach a bit higher, to eye level with herself.
“Then shall we play a game?”
“Okay, okay.”
Coaxing children, Ge Bai had been at the Welfare Institute for so many years, she knew how just by watching.
First step: make Little Peach not resist using Skills, then slowly get used to or even like using Skills.
“Little Peach, do you know you can emit a very, very nice-smelling ‘Bewitching Peach Fragrance’?”
“Mm!”
While speaking, Little Peach shook its Leaves and bounced twice excitedly. Its interest had been aroused by Ge Bai.
“Then shall we try actively emitting this ‘Bewitching Peach Fragrance’?”
“Okay!”
Little Peach closed its eyes, furrowed its brow, looking like it was gathering strength and trying hard.
In less than two seconds, Ge Bai clearly smelled a fresh peach fragrance.
As soon as the peach fragrance entered the nose, it refreshed the mind and spirit, then faintly urged Spiritual Power to circulate autonomously, giving a sense of fullness and power.
This is an excitant! Ge Bai finally understood why little monkey Jin Rui would eye the peaches so eagerly upon seeing them.
“Huh? Little Peach’s peach fragrance smells even better.”
Big Willow also smelled the Bewitching Peach Fragrance and exclaimed in surprise.
“Meow!”
The distant Lynx sniffed its nose. Not only did its movements become more agile, but after discovering the source of the fragrance, it curiously glanced at Little Peach, though not as crazy as Jin Rui.
It should still be a Spiritual Power Value issue, Ge Bai guessed after seeing the Lynx’s reaction.
On the Spirit Plant Cultivation Atlas, the Bewitching Peach Fragrance Skill Points were rising much faster than before.
Lying flat is not advisable, still need active Extra Training! Looking at the atlas, Ge Bai secretly made the decision.
“Cockatoo, cockatoo!”
A noisy sound came from the Training Ground doorway. A Little Sunflower Cockatoo flapped its wings, trying to fly into the Venue.
“Hua E, calm down!”
The Beast Tamer was behind, one hand tugging its leg, one hand pressing its neck, striving to hold back the Little Sunflower Cockatoo.
This is coming for Little Peach?
