80: Invalid? Invalid? Still invalid!!

This type was different from the previous two; it wasn't a small individual demon insect.

Instead, it was a large demon insect, each reaching over two meters in height.

Its appearance was similar to a rhinoceros beetle, but it had three horns and its whole body shimmered with a bronze-like luster.

Its heavy armor also represented its hardness and how troublesome it was to deal with.

Because of its large size, its numbers were correspondingly restricted.

Duanmu Jie could currently only summon 20 of them.

[Bronze Beetle (Second Generation Bug)

Strength: Level 3, Rank 1

Attributes: Elemental System, Tank-type, Life-type, Healing-type

Aptitude: S

Potential: Expected to reach SSS-Rank Potential.

Skills: ...]

Being a Tank-type was one thing, but it also had Life and Healing attributes—it was a bona fide absolute defense beetle.

Duanmu Jie's cultivation path was very clear: tank bugs, control bugs, and attack bugs, forming a relatively complete system.

Such a jack-of-all-trades system could be useful no matter the situation.

Then, 20 Bronze Beetles were seen lined up in the front row, with thousands of Black Frost Spiders behind them and thousands of Dead Leaf Cicadas flying in mid-air.

This formation was just like an army arrayed for war!

When Tang Jian, Su Can, and the others saw this scene, their minds went a bit numb.

Densely packed insects were flying all over the sky, enough to trigger anyone's Trypophobia.

"Chen Fei, we'll leave him to you. We'll go deal with the others!"

Except for a freak like Chen Fei, no one else wanted to face Duanmu Jie at all.

"Leave him to me, just hold your ground!"

Originally, he thought Duanmu Jie's insects were numerous and strong enough.

But after seeing this lineup, Chen Fei actually lost interest.

All three types of insects added up to just over ten thousand; it wasn't many.

Their strength was only at Level 3, Rank 1, and as for their skill proficiency, they were even weaker.

None had Peak level skills; most were at the Mastery Level, and there were even one or two at the proficient level.

But then again, even Jiang Yiyi's beasts only had one or two Peak level skills. How could Duanmu Jie, a first-year, have any?

Not everyone had a cheat like Chen Fei did!

With a wave of his hand, tens of thousands of Third Generation Gu Worms flew out.

The first thing they did upon flying out was divide into three rows.

The first row raised crystal shields, while the second row prepared a [Crystal Arrow Rain] for a violent bombardment.

The third row stood by to provide support at any time.

Naturally, Duanmu Jie wouldn't let Chen Fei have his way and first tested him with a wave of poison mist.

The result: an ineffective attack!

This poison mist wasn't even enough for the Third Generation Gu Worms to Devour.

Duanmu Jie didn't expect this move to succeed anyway; after all, they were all insect types, so their poison resistance was definitely not weak.

So, webs were spun over, attempting to knock the flying Third Generation Gu Worms down.

To Duanmu Jie's surprise, the opponent used the same method, and their webs could suddenly grow larger.

This was simply too ridiculous!

The Black Frost Spiders failed, and instead, the Dead Leaf Cicadas were somewhat affected.

At this point, Duanmu Jie stopped smiling.

Control and poison were both ineffective. It was also unrealistic to try to penetrate the opponent's crystal shields for Parasitism.

This was getting a bit tricky!

Then, how about trying this move?

The Dead Leaf Cicada's trump card skill: [Vibration Wave].

Using powerful Mental Energy to form an invisible vibrational shockwave.

This mental shockwave could bypass physical shields to launch a violent bombardment.

"Phew, it's finally effective!"

Seeing the first row of Third Generation Gu Worms shattered, Duanmu Jie clenched his fist tightly, his face beaming with joy.

"It seems your crystal Gu worms can't withstand this strike of mine!"

Chen Fei remained calm: "That move of yours is indeed not bad!"

This was also his first time encountering this type of skill, and he had no way to counter it for the moment.

He even wanted to have Wu Yun use Replication to reap some benefits.

Hearing the praise from Chen Fei, Duanmu Jie was quite pleased.

But then Chen Fei's tone shifted:

"However... it won't be easy for you to hurt them."

Duanmu Jie raised an eyebrow. Could it be that the opponent had a way to crack it?

In the next second!

Those shattered Gu worms actually began to reorganize.

That's right!

After being hit by the shockwave, the Third Generation Gu Worms couldn't hold out and their physical bodies were broken apart.

But being broken didn't mean death; the [Crystal Reorganization] skill obtained from the Black Slime Worm King played a major role.

Seeing this scene, Duanmu Jie's eyes nearly popped out of his head.

There was such an ability?

This was too shameless!

In other words, the Vibration Wave attack was still ineffective.

Not just him, even the group of Grandmaster Level and King-level Beast Tamers were amazed by this skill.

They knew this skill meant powerful vitality and infinite possibilities.

At this moment, Chen Fei's status in Chief Instructor's heart rose another level.

As for Su Shanhai, he saw much more.

The Black Slime Worm King only appeared in the Eighth District, but those who knew of it were quite wary.

That eerie spore ability was almost impossible to guard against; in Baiyue City, no one could stop it except for Xing Shaoshan's Nine-Turn Crystal Snake.

A mere Fourth-Level Beast had actually forced King Jiang to act; this in itself spoke volumes.

And Little Gu's Crystal Reorganization skill gave Su Shanhai a familiar feeling.

If Chen Fei were allowed to grow faster, he would definitely be the greatest weapon against the Black Slime Worm King.

In Su Shanhai's heart, Chen Fei needed to receive better cultivation.

Thinking of this, he picked up his phone and left the spectator stands... on the competition field!

Duanmu Jie could no longer maintain his usual composure.

Especially when the Third Generation Gu Worms' Crystal Arrow Rain finished preparing.

The densely packed crystal arrows in the sky were simply despair-inducing.

Not just Duanmu Jie, but the others from An Shenling Academy also felt their scalps tingle, their eyes widening like copper bells.

"Holy crap, just destroy everything..."
