Unable to Cultivate, I Can Only Raise Soul Pets Chapter 32

Chapter 32: The Battle Between Zone Winners, Fighting Against a Flying Type Soul Pet!

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

The green caterpillar heard the command and looked at the rocks that were coming toward it. It immediately focused its aim at the Triangular Hard Rock.

The tail swooped again.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

In an instant, the incoming stones were deflected in the opposite direction, back toward the Triangular Hard Rock.

Contestant No. 9 stared in astonishment.

Like raining bullets, the rocks landed on the hard soul pet, and thunks could be heard.

This did not cause much damage to it, but it managed to hinder its reaction.

At this moment, the Rock Throw soul skill had ended.

The Triangular Hard Rock roared and was about to retaliate, but the green figure had already taken the initiative.

Then, a green tail covered its vision.

Bang!

However, this time, it was unable to use its hands to block the powerful attack.

With a loud bang, the Triangular Hard Rock’s body was quickly pushed back, but it still could not be forced off the stage.

Suddenly, the same tail whipped across its body continuously.

Contestant No. 9 was taken aback by this ambush.

He probably didn’t expect the green caterpillar’s tail to be able to move so quickly.

It didn’t seem to be a soul skill either…

He couldn’t understand it at all.

When he came back to his senses, he realized that his Triangular Hard Rock had been beaten until its eyes were spinning, and its entire body was about to fall.

With a loud thud, it collapsed on the stage.

There was a long silence.

“Contestant No. 23 wins!” the referee declared.

w.a.n.g Che looked at his opponent and pondered for a few seconds. Then, he waved at his soul pet, whose tail was already swollen.

It was not a soul skill.

Soul skills required a special circulation of soul power.

If he were to use it on the other party, it wouldn’t have caused much damage to the body.

However, normal attacks, even with soul power, could inflict a certain amount of harm to the soul pet’s body.

Especially this new move, called Tornado Tail.

It was the result of the last seven days of training.

w.a.n.g Che had been trying to teach this little one some basic martial arts skills.

The only successful move that had come about was the Tornado Tail.

However, no matter how much w.a.n.g Che trained it, this young one was not able to use this technique together with its soul skill, the Rumbling Tail Strike.

Due to the immense might of the Rumbling Tail Strike, its soul energy had to undergo a special circulation every time it executed the move.

It was very difficult to unleash it continuously without pause.

w.a.n.g Che thought that if it really managed to succeed, it would be considered a new soul skill.

Thus, it could only attack normally with its tail.

Even like this, the potential the move carried was still extraordinary.

The opponent found it burdensome defending against it.

Not to mention, the consumption was not small. At the same time, it would cause some damage to the body.

That Triangular Hard Rock’s physique was too st.u.r.dy.

After walking off the stage, w.a.n.g Che immediately brought the green caterpillar to the Soul Pet Recovery Center once again.

The stadium was free to be used, but normal Soul Pet Recovery Centers weren’t to be used according to one’s accord.

It was a simplified version of a soul pet hospital. It could use various medicines to quickly heal soul pets.

If they were heavily injured, they would have to undergo surgery and be moved to a proper soul pet hospital to recuperate.

‘The Triangular Hard Rock’s defense is truly strong, and its const.i.tution isn’t weak. After using the Harden soul skill, it would be hard to defeat it instantly, even with the little one’s strength. Even if Rumbling Tail Strike was used, it might still be unable to defeat it in one shot.’

w.a.n.g Che calculated by himself while his soul pet was recovering.

He realized the power of the green caterpillar after testing it previously.

After training it in the Beast Origin Skill, it had greatly strengthened in all aspects.

Naturally, it couldn’t be compared to normal soul pets.

However, the improvement in strength was not much.

Therefore, even with 70 years of soul power cultivation, it was still arduous for the green caterpillar to instantly defeat the Triangular Hard Rock, a rare soul pet that specialized specifically in defense.

Its racial difference was evident.

‘However, if it can activate the Soul Armor Haki and use the Rumbling Tail Strike… it should be able to take it down in one move.’

w.a.n.g Che pondered to himself.

The greatest achievement of those seven days of training was obviously the Soul Armor Haki.

After w.a.n.g Che’s training and countless soul power manifestation practices, it could be considered that the green caterpillar had gained a basic grasp of that special ability.

Of course, he could not use it now, as it was reserved as a trump card.

With w.a.n.g Che’s combat experience, he had the ability to predict the outcome of any battle.

Unless the opponent revealed a soul pet he had never seen before or understood.

He calculated every step clearly; there was no mistake.

All of a sudden, his phone vibrated.

w.a.n.g Che flipped it open and saw that it was the cla.s.s chat.

“d.a.m.n, Brother Che is awesome! Our cla.s.s actually has two zone winners!”

“A green caterpillar was actually able to defeat a second stage Triangular Hard Rock… That’s ridiculous! Teacher, I’ve sent you the battle record, can you a.n.a.lyze the whole thing for us?”

“Brother Che, the last move your green caterpillar used was quite cool! Was it a soul skill?”

“@Teacher Zheng! Explain it to us!”

Teacher Zheng: “Don’t rush me, I’m looking at it… F*ck, wait…”

“…”

“The next round will be a fight between the zone winners! Brother Che, I’ll help you take a look. You have to pay special attention to some of them!”

“Because their soul pets are all flying type soul pets, they are extremely effective against your green caterpillar from a combat perspective… It’s best if you don’t meet them, otherwise…”

“Thank you.”

…

Speaking of which, w.a.n.g Che finally remembered about the girl from yesterday.

Could it be that the next round…

The contestants from the 26 zones were all confirmed.

The pairings for the final round of the compet.i.tion was starting to be a.s.signed.

In the central hall of the gymnasium, groups of contestants were flashing on the light screen…

Finally, it slowed down.

Zone A’s No. 6 versus Zone M’s No. 8.

Zone C’s No. 9 versus Zone P’s No. 17.

…

Zone J’s No. 23 versus Zone B’s No. 23.

…

At the same time, there were images of both sides as well as the soul pet behind them shown on the screen.

Contestant No. 23 from Zone B was the girl w.a.n.g Che had met the day before.

Her soul pet appeared as well, a flying type soul pet which was an infant rare one – Spike Gull.

It was extremely fierce, quite telling from its name.

After seeing who he was going up against, w.a.n.g Che mulled over for a few seconds.

‘It looks like I’m going to win this match,’ w.a.n.g Che thought.

Logically, the last thing he feared was the disadvantage of soul pet types.

After all, the more obvious a weakness was, the more he focused on training that aspect.

At the same time, something was going on at the other side.

“You did that?”

Lin Xi asked as she stood on the third floor of the stadium, staring at the battle information on the screen, berating, “Lin Yi, who taught you to interfere with the compet.i.tion with these kinds of methods?”

The girl called Lin Yi replied in dissatisfaction, “What are you talking about? It was computerized. We could still intrude on the first day, but we can’t do that in today’s compet.i.tion at all, so how could it be me?”

“Oh? So you did arrange for that Explosive Fruit in the first round, didn’t you?” Lin Xi questioned.

“How could that be? I challenged him yesterday, even though I was tricked by him. Did you really think I was that type of person?” Lin Yi immediately retorted.

“Moreover, with my power, why would I need to resort to this approach to weaken his strength? Also, using the Explosive Fruit clearly meant I didn’t want him to partic.i.p.ate in the compet.i.tion… but I am going to defeat him in the arena properly!

“It’s completely different!”

“Heh…” Lin Xi sighed as she shook her head. “You’re using your flying type soul pet against a bug type soul pet, yet you still have the nerve to say that you’re upright?”

“The soul pet attribute has nothing to do with this,” Lin Yi explained. “In any case, I don’t care. He made you suffer, so I, your sister, will make him pay today!”

Lin Xi refused to say any more and only let out a groan.

At the same time, the compet.i.tion officially entered its preparation stage…
