1286. Chapter 1281 Another method
“Teacher! Gangbao said his proficiency in Absolute Defense has improved!” Qiao Sang said excitedly, “Did he have an epiphany?”
“Gangquan?”
Gangbao looked bewildered.
An epiphany?
Mikaela took a deep breath, her eyes blazing as she explained,
“The white light of concentrated energy has become much denser. This is a noticeable change only seen when Absolute Defense has reached minor success. For someone at the entry-level to achieve minor success in Absolute Defense in such a short time, there’s no other explanation but epiphany.”
“Excellent!” Qiao Sang looked at Gangbao and said excitedly, “You’ve already had an epiphany on just the first day. You must have a high aptitude for Absolute Defense. Maybe we can reach the standard for descending the Void Cliff soon!”
“Gangquan!”
Gangbao nodded happily.
“With Gangbao’s talent, it’s really possible,” Mikaela smiled.
Very good, Teacher Mikaela doesn’t doubt it… Qiao Sang thought to herself, opening her mouth to suggest a break.
However, before he could say anything, Mikaela continued,
“Now is the time when Gangbao has the most understanding of absolute defense. Let’s continue practicing.”
Qiao Sang: “.”
Gangbao: “…”
…
Six o’clock in the evening.
In the room.
Qiao Sang and Gangbao lay on the soft big bed, their facial features wrinkled and full of pain.
The gem on Lubao’s forehead beside them emitted a faint blue light, shining on them.
Qiao Sang and Gangbao’s expressions relaxed at the same time, revealing a comfortable expression.
“Why don’t you take some time to have another epiphany.” Qiao Sang suggested in his mind.
“Gangquan.”
Gangbao responded.
The frequency of epiphanies is so high that it will definitely be suspected.
“You said the same thing before your epiphany today,” Qiao Sang said in her mind, eyes closed. “And then you had your epiphany, and Teacher Mikaela still believed you. Don’t worry, as long as we act well, she’ll definitely believe it.”
Steel Bao recalled Mikaela’s admiring expression and decided it wouldn’t be difficult to deceive her. He called out,
“Steel Power.”
Okay, but it’s best not to have your epiphany right away; it’s better to wait a little longer.
“I know,” Qiao Sang sighed inwardly.
The minor-success level of Absolute Defense had increased the duration of resistance against Peng Jiamei’s attacks, but only by 0.5 seconds. She seriously suspected that Peng Jiamei, observing Steel Bao’s increased proficiency in Absolute Defense, had also increased its own attack power.
If she continued practicing like this, she felt her own defense might rival that of a Steel-type pet.
Currently, it seemed that to reach the standard of descending the Void Cliff, Absolute Defense proficiency had to be at least perfect.
Even if Steel Bao had an epiphany, it wouldn’t be possible for him to achieve perfect proficiency directly.
Alas, it looked like she’d have to endure the damage for at least a few months… Qiao Sang felt a moment of exhaustion at the thought.
Suddenly, a black hole appeared out of nowhere.
Qiao Sang sensed something and opened his eyes.
He saw Xiao Xunbao emerge from the black hole.
Then, a gust of wind blew out, transforming into Qingbao.
Qiao Sang saw Qingbao and was stunned for a moment, not knowing what he was thinking.
Qingbao saw his beastmaster staring at him motionlessly, confused. He blinked and called out:
“Xia Xia?”
Qiao Sang: “…”
You’re still using Xia Lala’s language… Qiao Sang’s previous thoughts suddenly dissipated, and he couldn’t help but complain in his heart.
“Xunxun~”
Little Xunbao called out, indicating that the teacher called us to eat.
Qiao Sang gathered his thoughts, sat up, got up to put on his shoes, pulled out the room card, and said, “Let’s go.”
Little Xunbao’s eyes flashed blue, and he disappeared into the room with his own beastmaster and Yabao.
A group of figures appeared out of thin air at the door of the restaurant. After verifying their identities with the room cards, they were led by the staff to the table where Mikala was sitting.
It was already filled with various delicacies, among which the energy meals that grass-type pets liked to eat accounted for the majority.
“Qingqing!”
Xia Lala’s eyes lit up and floated over.
“You’re amazing!” Mikaela smiled brightly upon seeing Shalala, and immediately praised her, “You can speak Qingyun Nana’s language so fluently.”
She wasn’t surprised that Shalala was speaking Qingyun Nana’s language. She had overheard the conversation at the training grounds that day, but she was busy training Gangbao’s Absolute Defense at the time, so she didn’t leave.
“Qingqing~”
Shalala felt a little embarrassed by the praise.
Qingbao took a bite of the energy meal in front of her, then feigned surprise and exclaimed,
“Xiaxia!”
Delicious!
You’re just showing off your newfound tribal language because you’re being praised by Shalala… Qiao Sang, who now had a pretty good understanding of Qingbao’s temperament, immediately saw through his little thought. She suppressed the urge to laugh and said,
“Qingbao is speaking Shalala’s language very well now, too.”
“Xiaxia,”
Qingbao exclaimed happily.
Meanwhile, a cheerful breeze blew around them.
Mikaela smiled and said, “You two practice together often, right? So you’re practicing each other’s language.”
“Qing…”
Xia Lala was about to nod.
“Qingqing!”
Qingbao interrupted, saying that it wasn’t true at all. They just practiced together today and didn’t expect to learn it so quickly.
As he finished speaking, a gust of wind swirled anxiously around Xia Lala.
Xia Lala sensed Qingbao’s meaning and fell silent, swallowing back the words she hadn’t finished.
After speaking Xia Lala’s language all day, she was so anxious that she subconsciously spoke her own language… Qiao Sang’s mouth twitched, and he helped translate.
Mikaela was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, “Then you two are quite destined to learn the language on the same day.”
“Xia Xia,”
Qingbao called out sweetly, indicating that she was right.
Xia Lala ate her energy meal in silence.
Mikaela remembered her business, knife and fork in hand, cutting the steak as she said,
“Gangbao has excellent endurance and a high aptitude for absolute defense. I think we can spend more time training every day to improve his proficiency.”
After a pause, she added, “After we finish eating, let’s rest for half an hour, and then I’ll take Gangbao down for training.”
“I know Gangbao has just absorbed the Natural Elephant Fruit, and the intensity of this training may be a bit too much for him, but if he wants to get down the Void Cliff within the time limit set by Yin Panling, this is the only way to train.”
In fact, even if he trained this way, he might not be able to reach the standard of getting down the Void Cliff, but Mikaela didn’t mind using this pressure to motivate Gangbao to train.
Gangbao paused in his energy meal and looked at his beastmaster.
Qiao Sang was silent for a moment, put down his chopsticks, and said seriously,
“I actually thought of another way to get to the bottom of the Void Cliff to get the pet beast egg.” (End of this chapter)
