172: Team Competition 2.0

"Seriously, is he using basic attacks as Skills?"

The effects displayed by the Skills Sword Spine and Sword Edge were simply mind-boggling.

Especially when facing a pet like the Serpent Stone Statue, which possesses a unique defense mechanism, if Ya Bao were sent to participate in the battle, the results would be incredibly absurd.

Because once Ya Bao activates her domain, no matter how abnormal the opponent's defensive capabilities are, they will become completely useless.

It's no exaggeration to say that in confrontations between pets of the same growth level, other pets basically only have the option of evading once they encounter Ya Bao.

However, nothing in the world is absolute.

If a pet's vitality is exceptionally strong, strong enough to withstand the damage impact brought by Ya Bao, then it is still possible to resist and ultimately defeat Ya Bao through tenacious perseverance and a resilient physique.

As for how to effectively enhance the power of Ya Bao's domain, after careful consideration, the most effective method is undoubtedly to arrange for Ya Bao and Wu Mian to engage in an intense sparring match.

The reason is simple: as of now, only the two of them have successfully mastered domain power.

Among them, Yuan Wang, if he wishes to acquire his own domain, still needs to patiently wait for his elemental affinity to be fully enhanced.

As for Qing Yan, it depends more on the extent to which he can comprehend the relevant techniques.

Qing Yan had previously completed two stages of evolution in one go.

But to continue achieving evolutionary breakthroughs, he must at least wait for his growth level to catch up before he has a chance to reach his goal... No sooner said than done! Li Wen acted with swift decisive action.

Not long after, he unhesitatingly spent 10 credits to open a training room that was much more spacious than the one in the dormitory.

It's not that the training room in the dormitory was completely unusable; it's just that it's where everyone lives and rests together, like a home.

If Ya Bao and Wu Mian, these two little guys, couldn't control their strength during the battle and made a mess, it would be troublesome to have to repair and clean it up afterward.

At this moment, Ya Bao and Wu Mian stood at opposite ends of the battle arena, looking at each other from afar, and the atmosphere instantly became tense.

Ya Bao gazed at Wu Mian opposite her, a strange feeling welling up in her heart.

She had spent some time with and understood Qing Yan, who had been with her from the start, and also Chef Yuan Wang, who joined the team later.

However, Ya Bao knew very little about this newcomer, Wu Mian.

Wu Mian also stared intently at Ya Bao in front of him, thoughts bubbling up in his mind, unable to stop.

"How strong is Da Jie Tou exactly? Let me thoroughly test her, so I can clearly know how powerful she, who can become my Mental Chess Pieces, truly is. This way, I can estimate the limit my own chess path can reach!"

Just as the two were pondering in secret, Li Wen suddenly spoke loudly.

"Alright, everyone! The second team competition officially begins!"

Li Wen's sudden words were like a clap of thunder, startling both Ya Bao and Wu Mian, who looked confused and at a loss.

"Ya?"

"The second one, what about Qing Yan and Yuan Wang?"

"Team competition?"

The significant difference in their perspectives on the questions actually stemmed from their distinct understandings and perceptions of things.

This is like looking into the distance from different mountain peaks; the scenery each person sees naturally varies.

Wu Mian joined the team relatively late, so he had not only never personally participated in many things, but had not even heard of them.

Just then, Li Wen began to patiently explain to everyone one by one.

"To effectively check whether all team members are diligently improving their strength, I will specifically organize an internal team competition at regular intervals."

"Then, based on your performance in the competition, your corresponding rankings will be determined."

At this point, Li Wen paused slightly, then continued.

"And, if anyone can stand out in this competition and become the winner, they will also have the opportunity to make a relatively reasonable wish to me!"

When he reached this point, Li Wen suddenly emphasized his tone and paused for a moment before slowly adding.

"However, as for Qing Yan, that fellow is a different story. His laziness on a daily basis is obvious to all."

"So, he's directly disqualified from participating this time! As for Yuan Wang, he is currently fully committed to a crucial and extremely arduous scientific research task, making it impossible for him to participate in this competition."

As soon as Li Wen spoke these words, he immediately gained Ya Bao's strong approval and high recognition.

"Ya~"

"Excellent job! That guy Qing Yan is simply too lazy; he's unwilling to even open the refrigerator to get a drink himself, insisting on having his clone fetch it for him!"

Li Wen nodded; he had seen it all, which is why he directly banished Qing Yan to Pingdu Mountain, to curb his arrogance and impetuosity.

"However, enough small talk; the battle can begin."

With these words, the atmosphere instantly changed.

In that instant, both sides simultaneously unleashed their respective domain abilities!

They were seen to be rapidly enveloped by circular energy fluctuations, as if wrapped in a mysterious energy shield.

Upon closer inspection, rather than a domain, it seemed more like an area purely composed of energy.

However, although both expanded from their own centers, the scope they covered was vastly different.

Wu Mian's domain was exceptionally vast, while Ya Bao's domain appeared somewhat small in comparison, like the difference between a basketball court and a football field.

However, the size of a domain does not necessarily determine the final outcome.

In the brief moment after the domain unfolded, Ya Bao unhesitatingly brandished the longsword in her hand, and a sharp, incomparable Sword Qi instantly shot out, hurtling towards Wu Mian like lightning.

The Sword Qi sliced through the air, emitting a sharp whistling sound.

Seeing the Sword Qi surge forth like a storm, Wu Mian's reaction was astonishingly fast.

He had just raised his hand when the action was already complete. A Mental Chess Pieces suddenly dropped from mid-air, perfectly blocking the path of the Sword Qi.

At the same time, a powerful mental force burst forth from that Mental Chess Pieces, forming a dazzling ball of light. With a low command.

"Mental Burst!" A violent explosion suddenly erupted.

However, the first explosion seemed to have little effect on Ya Bao's Sword Qi.

The Sword Qi still charged forward with menacing force, showing no signs of weakening.

Clearly, the explosion caused by this mental force alone was not enough to shake the immense power of Ya Bao's Sword Spine.

Immediately afterward, Wu Mian controlled another Mental Chess Pieces to also explode.

This explosion was even more violent than the previous one; the impact forces generated by the two explosions superimposed on each other, finally causing the originally straight-moving Sword Qi to begin deviating from its original trajectory.
