Chapter 202 The Golden Courtship Skill is Said
"Ladies and gentlemen—!"
Bao Xiaoxing's high-pitched, almost raspy voice exploded in the commentary booth. She was completely fired up, her hands gripping the microphone tightly, her knuckles turning slightly white from the force: "The first match of the semifinals, Yueyao Academy wins! Let's give Yueyao Academy a round of applause for securing their place in the finals!"
The entire venue erupted in cheers.
A tidal wave of cheers poured down from the stands in all directions, converging into a massive sound that nearly overturned the entire stadium.
The flags of Getsuyouin waved wildly in the crowd, and the screams of the fans mingled with the suppressed sighs and sobs of the Yūkiin fans, weaving together a noisy and complex symphony of victory.
After announcing the results of the competition, Bao Xiaoxing turned around and called out to Xue Youyou, who was about to leave: "Lady Bai Xueji! Please wait a moment!"
Xue Youyou paused, looking at Bao Xiaoxing with a puzzled expression: "Hmm? Is there something else? Didn't we agree that I would only commentate on this match with you?"
Bao Xiaoxing nodded, then shook his head and said, "Lady Bai Xueji, you have to play in the next match. How could I dare to keep you here to continue commentating with me? If I did that, your fans would probably devour me alive."
"I just want to ask, what exactly was that golden silk thread skill that the Nine-Turn White Moon Silkworm Fairy used just now—"
Before she could finish speaking, the noise in the entire venue subsided on its own. Everyone unconsciously held their breath, leaned forward, and pricked up their ears, afraid of missing a single word.
In fact, everyone wants to know the answer to this question.
What exactly is it?
What exactly were those golden threads that instantly killed the Ultimate-level Dragon of the Other Shore?
Hundreds of thousands of eyes in the venue, along with the gazes of billions of viewers in front of their screens, all converged on the commentary booth.
To be precise, it all came down to the snow-white-haired girl in the commentary booth.
The audience was like this, and so were the four dukes and marquises on the podium.
Lin Yan, the Marquis of Purgatory, leaned out of her seat by more than half, her eyes filled with eagerness. She was someone who didn't know how to hide her emotions, and when she was really curious, everyone could see that she was very curious.
Lord Xinglan, Bao Yunxing, frowned almost imperceptibly.
She was quite certain that she didn't know what this skill was.
As the leader of the Pet Alliance in Yuelan Prefecture, she would not say she knew everything about the skills, attributes, and evolution paths of all the pets in this land, but she was certainly very familiar with them.
However, she couldn't see through the move that the Nine-Turn White Moon Silkworm Fairy had just used.
That move was too bizarre.
It ignores all defenses, penetrates all skills, and even the multiple layers of protection at the ultimate level are rendered useless in its presence. This level of ability cannot be summarized by the word "powerful"; it is almost something at the level of rules.
What made Bao Yunxing even more uneasy was that this strange skill, which she didn't even recognize, was possessed by the enemy that she had given Xue Youyou to deal with.
She couldn't help but look at the composed young woman in the commentary booth, her eyes filled with a hint of worry that she herself didn't even realize.
Will Xue Youyou really be able to complete the mission?
Amidst billions of gazes both inside and outside the venue, Xue Youyou's expression remained as calm and composed as ever.
She didn't even rush to answer Bao Xiaoxing's question. Instead, she leisurely tossed her long hair that hung over her shoulder. The movement was so relaxed that it was as if she wasn't commentating on a world-renowned semi-final match, being watched by billions of people, but rather sitting in the courtyard on a sunny afternoon, drinking tea and admiring flowers, showing off her charm to her lover.
Then she smiled.
That smile held the composure and certainty of an old scholar speaking of his major, along with a hint of helplessness that said, "You don't even know this?"
"hehe."
Xue Youyou chuckled softly and replied in a calm tone, "After all, it's a gold-level skill, Heavenly Net Silkworm Catching. Not many people should know about it."
The entire room fell silent for a moment.
Then, Bao Xiaoxing's face instantly became a walking meme.
Her eyes widened, her pupils contracted sharply, and her mouth opened and closed repeatedly, like a fish thrown ashore. Her hands instinctively gripped the edge of the commentary stand, and she leaned back as if she'd been struck on the head with a blunt object.
"What?! A gold-level skill?!"
Bao Xiaoxing practically shouted it out; his voice was so shrill that it caused a momentary burst of static in the microphone.
No one blamed her for her loss of composure.
Her exaggerated expression perfectly represented the sentiments of everyone present.
Gold skill.
In Lanzhou, these four words are like a fairy tale.
In a world where even orange skill cards are fought over by countless powerful beast tamers, gold skills are something that only exist in ancient books and legends passed down from generation to generation. They are mythical beings that even the most powerful beast tamers in Yuelan Prefecture have only heard of but never seen in their true form.
Many in the audience even thought that the golden skill was just a fabrication, like the heroic legends in children's bedtime stories—something to hear but never take seriously.
Moreover, even if gold skills really exist, they should never be found in Yuelan Prefecture—there has never been a single gold skill card ever proven to exist in the entire Pet Alliance and the entire territory of Yuelan Prefecture.
But just now, Xue Youyou said that the skill used by the Nine-Turn White Moon Silkworm Fairy was a golden skill.
So here's the question—where did Mutsuki come from?
This question surged into everyone's mind at once, like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, stirring up towering waves.
Bao Xiaoxing took a deep breath, trying to keep her voice from trembling, but the astonishment that seeped from her bones was impossible to suppress: "I wonder where Mutsuki obtained her golden skill, it's truly breathtaking! Don't you think so, Lady Shirayuki!"
Upon hearing this, Xue Youyou tilted her head slightly, her smile deepening.
"If you're asking me how I acquired this skill, I can explain it."
She said slowly and deliberately, her tone still nonchalant: "As for being shocking, let's forget about it."
These words caused another uproar in the room.
Bao Xiaoxing's reaction was even more exaggerated than the audience's; she practically pounced on Xue Youyou, her eyes brimming with an insatiable thirst for knowledge: "Lady Bai Xueji, you know?!"
You know that too?
Even if we're not sisters, how can we know how others got them?
Xue Youyou tossed her hair: "Last time I said that the Nine Revolutions White Moon Silkworm Immortal is the form that the White Moon Silkworm transformed into after a thousand years of time and ten delayed evolutions in its complete form."
Bao Xiaoxing nodded hurriedly, her head bobbing like a chicken pecking at rice: "Yes, yes! You did say that!"
Xue Youyou paused for a moment, then continued, "I think I also mentioned that the tenth evolution is quite special, requiring one to overcome the tribulation set up by the gods, right?"
Bao Xiaoxing nodded even faster: "He did say that!"
Xue Youyou chuckled softly.
"You can think of this golden skill as a reward from the gods to the Nine-Turn White Moon Silkworm Fairy who successfully survived the Heavenly Tribulation and completed her ascension."
"To put it simply, it's a bloodline skill that you can automatically learn once you evolve into a Nine-Turn White Moon Silkworm Immortal."
Are gold skills automatically learned bloodline skills?
The expressions of the entire audience were surprisingly uniform at that moment; everyone's eyes widened and their jaws almost dropped to the ground.
This level of skill is just given away for free? It can be automatically learned as long as the evolution is successful?
This thought flashed through the minds of countless people, making them extremely envious of Mutsuki.
But Xue Youyou hadn't finished speaking when she added wittily, "In fact, the Heavenly Net Silkworm Catching is a skill used by the Nine-Turn White Moon Silkworm Fairy to mate."
She casually uttered those words that left everyone speechless.
"Because the Nine-Turn White Moon Silkworm Fairy is such a rare species, in ancient times, there was a powerful Nine-Turn White Moon Silkworm Fairy who invented the skill of Sky Net Silkworm Catching in order to find another Nine-Turn White Moon Silkworm Fairy. He used it to cover the entire planet and carry out a carpet search to find his kind."
The entire room fell silent.
The stadium, which held hundreds of thousands of people, was so quiet that it was as if everyone had been put on pause at the same time.
Courtship skills.
This golden skill that instantly defeated the ultimate-level Dragon of the Underworld, this bizarre skill that ignored all defenses, penetrated all attacks, and left the entire audience dumbfounded—
It was actually used by the Nine-Turn White Moon Silkworm Fairy to find a partner?!
The audience's brains collectively went blank at that moment. They stared blankly at the eloquent, long-haired girl in the commentary booth, feeling as if they were from completely different dimensions.
