Chapter 226, Skill 5! Divine Blessing?
Chapter 226, Skill 5! Divine Blessing?
The rest room at Lanzhiyuan.
Reverse, and then reverse again.
In the end, Lei Ying won with an overwhelming advantage, washing away the shame of losing to Manluo last year.
Everyone was taken aback.
"That's too powerful..."
Ning Xiaoman stared blankly at the screen, the bag of potato chips in her hand falling to the ground again, but this time no one laughed at her, because everyone's expression was similar.
Who would have thought that with both sides being ultimate forms, such an exaggerated one-sided development would occur?
"Lei Ying is that strong?!"
Su Wanrou's voice still carried a hint of daze.
In her mind, Manluo was the previous champion, the top ten kings, and the youngest ultimate beast tamer.
Of course, strictly speaking, the youngest ultimate beast tamer is now Meng Yanqing.
But Lei Ying, who hadn't even beaten Meng Yanqing, was expected to be easily crushed by Manluo.
The results of it?
It was Manluo who was crushed.
"Thank goodness... thank goodness she was careless when she hit us."
Luo Yan's voice carried a sense of relief, as if she had survived a disaster.
Everyone nodded in agreement upon hearing this.
The terrifying strength displayed by Wan Lei Tian Jie Ji made everyone, even those who trusted Xue Youyou with her best-kept secrets, unsure whether she could actually defeat such a formidable opponent.
After all, Xue Youyou is not yet the ultimate Beast Tamer.
Facing Lei Ying, who possesses equally exceptional talent and has already advanced to the ultimate realm, he may not necessarily gain the upper hand.
A thin layer of sweat appeared on Lu Yuan's forehead.
She was incredibly grateful that she had overcome her evil thoughts this time. Before the match began, she had actually considered betting on Yūkiin to win. After all, Yūkiin was the reigning champion, and Manro's Phantom Mist Flower had evolved into its ultimate form, making her seem very solid.
Just a little bit.
She was so close. If Meng Yanqing hadn't come back and said that Lei Ying was still hiding her strength, she would have gone all in again.
If I were to take this as collateral, I'm afraid I'd have no choice but to commit suicide to atone for my sins.
"...Youyou, how did she do that?"
Finally regaining her senses, Meng Yanqing, holding Xue Youyou's hand, tilted her head back, her blue eyes fixed on Xue Youyou, filled with curiosity and a thirst for knowledge: "Why is she immune to the backlash from the Flower of Death?"
What happened on the screen just now was really bizarre.
The Death Flower of the Dragon Crossing the Other Shore, and the overwhelming Black Tide of Death, had completely surrounded Lei Ying, yet they couldn't touch her body no matter what.
Why is that?
She really wanted to know.
Meng Yanqing's question echoed the sentiments of everyone present.
Not only her, but everyone, including Luo Yan, turned around and all eyes fell on Xue Youyou, waiting for her answer.
It's unclear when it started, but Luo Yan has become more path-dependent on Xue Youyou than on consulting the Truth Machine.
In her heart, Xue Youyou was a super grandmaster of pet studies comparable to her sister Luo Xi, who had run away from home for many years. If she encountered any problems she didn't understand, she could just ask her.
However, Xue Youyou replied, "Even I have never seen the skill that Wan Lei Tian Jie Ji used just now."
Upon hearing this, the surroundings fell silent for a moment—even Xue Youyou didn't know?
It's worth noting that she's known for her extensive knowledge and experience, so it's rather bizarre that even she would shake her head at such a move.
Before everyone's surprise could fully develop, Xue Youyou continued, her tone calm yet tinged with a hint of seriousness and excitement: "So, I suspect this is very likely the fifth skill."
Fifth skill?
This word was like a stone thrown into a still lake, instantly creating ripples. Everyone looked at each other blankly, clearly having never heard of this expression before.
"What is that?" Meng Yanqing couldn't help but ask immediately.
Xue Youyou pondered for a moment before explaining, "Almost all beast tamers believe that the gods who rule the world established an insurmountable rule—a pet can only carry a maximum of four skills. This understanding is deeply ingrained and has almost become common knowledge."
"But in fact, this is a common misunderstanding. Personally, I have seen extremely lucky pets learn a fifth skill on their own through some kind of coincidence. And I have confirmed that this fifth skill does not belong to the regular skill slot; it has a completely independent special skill slot that exists specifically for it."
She paused briefly, as if giving the shocked crowd time to process it, before continuing, "The fifth skill is unique, completely different from those conventional skills. Precisely because it is comprehended by the pet itself, rather than learned or inherited, it possesses an extremely terrifying trait—the ability to continuously grow."
"In addition, it is often accompanied by all sorts of extremely domineering additional effects, such as guaranteed hit or guaranteed first strike. Because of this, I once heard someone call the fifth skill a divine blessing skill."
"Divine blessing skill..." The crowd murmured the word repeatedly, their eyes filled with undisguised shock, followed by an almost burning longing and yearning.
That power was like a miracle that only existed in legends to them.
Xue Youyou ignored the emotional fluctuations of the crowd and continued along her own train of thought: "I speculate that Wanlei Tianjie Ji's fifth skill should have an effect similar to 'Advanced Silence'."
"The so-called advanced silence means that at the moment the fifth skill is activated, it can not only directly silence the opponent's skills, but also simultaneously silence all additional bonuses and special effects on the opponent, including talents and ultimate skills. It returns to the most primitive and purest numerical collision."
"hiss--"
As soon as he finished speaking, a collective gasp of astonishment rippled through the crowd.
Only at this moment did everyone truly realize the terrifying and domineering nature of the fifth skill. It was no longer a simple skill confrontation, but a suppression that was almost at the level of rules.
After saying this, Xue Youyou quieted down, rested her cheek on her hand, and fell into thought.
She had a vague intuition that this was probably a killing move that Wan Lei Tian Jie Ji Lei Ying had prepared specifically for her.
As a result, he overdid it and ended up using it on Manluo.
If the silence effect of the fifth skill of Wanlei Tianjie Ji Leiying is high enough, will it also silence the passive effect of "Legendary Secret Art: Snow Accumulation", which has a somewhat ambiguous boundary?
If it really comes to that, wouldn't the Yuki-onna of the Goddess of the Moon degenerate into a tiny little thing?
Xue Youyou tilted her head, trying to visualize the scene in her mind, but found it hard to imagine.
What does the Yuki-onna of Kamishiro look like after she shrinks...? A cute, reserved 18-meter-tall girl?
She shook her head, dispelling the somewhat absurd image.
Ultimately, this level of confrontation will likely depend on each party's resilience and inherent strength, and on whose power is closer to the source of the rules.
That being said, Xue Youyou still had great confidence in the physical resistance of the Mythical Pet Beast.
After all, in terms of rarity, Mythic Omen is no less valuable than the Fifth Skill, and may even be more so.
They all touched upon the realm of the gods in their own ways, so why should her mythical omen lose to that damn fifth skill? At least on this point, the pride of the three paths of transcendent evolution is undeniable.
Just as Xue Youyou was lost in her thoughts, Lin Yueyao, who hadn't spoken for a long time, suddenly spoke up. Her voice wasn't loud, but she asked a rather tricky question: "Well... I have a question, please be sure to satisfy my curiosity!"
"Chief, you, Lei Ying, and Mu Yue, among the three of you... who is the strongest?"
