Chapter 35: Chapter 35: The Last Battle
Translator: 549690339
Because of the wounds MO Ye sustained during the fight that night, Chu Mu used this method to win and give MO Ye more time to recuperate.
All the Healing Grass had been used up. By the time the Life-and-Death Battle the next day took place, MO Ye would probably only have recovered about 50% of its power. Chu Mu could only leave everything up to fate for now. If he encountered opponents like Ge Qing, Ting Yu, and those from Wind Valley, Chu Mu would be in a lot of trouble. If he met an ordinary opponent, Chu Mu could safely get through this crisis!
“If only I could learn a Soul Skill that would allow my Soul Pet to quickly recover its Combat Power, I wouldn’t be in such a sorry state now…” Chu Mu muttered to himself.
There are many types of Soul Skills for Soul Pet Masters, including support-type Soul Skills that can quickly restore the Combat Power of Soul Pets. However, acquiring such high-level Soul Skills is difficult, as they are usually held by the major powers.
Noon on the next day was when the final matches would take place.
Soon, it was noon, and the remaining 21 people entered the camp once more. Each of their faces was etched with traces of coldness, and their eyes were filled with ruthlessness and murderous intent in order to survive!
The competition format was entirely up to the Executors. Executors would not arrange powerful contestants against each other, meaning the ten people who had been predetermined would fight against the ten opponents who had been deemed weaker. The battles would not be too suspenseful or rely on luck.
As a result, the survivors and their Soul Pets did not exhaust too much of their Combat Power. After they defeated their opponents, they did not immediately leave but instead waited at the edge of the arena for the completion of all the contests and to receive instructions from the Executors.
“Last match, Chu Mu and Gesen!”
Even without the Executor’s announcement, Chu Mu already knew that his opponent was Gesen since they were the only two who hadn’t fought yet.
Chu Mu recalled that when he first went to the Inner Island, he encountered a Mandi Monster. At that time, Gesen had captured it as if it were a treasure, while Chu Mu simply ignored it!
“It’s just your bad luck, huh? Your little trick from yesterday won’t work on me!” Gesen stood not far behind Chu Mu and smirked before their battle.
Gesen had captured a Mandi Monster, which wasn’t weak in power. Its presence here should hover around the top ten.
Gesen had been worried about facing stronger opponents, knowing his abilities. With good luck, he would live; with bad luck, he would die. In his opinion, facing Chu Mu was fortunate, as if the heavens were looking out for him…
“Another tragedy…” Ting Yu remarked indifferently, feeling pity for Gesen’s false belief of his survival.
“It doesn’t seem he can win today like he did yesterday. But you seem confident that he will…” Xinxue, who was now sure of her survival, asked Ting Yu softly.
Ting Yu stared at Chu Mu, who stood calmly in the arena, and smiled gently. “He won’t lose. No one here can beat him…”
Xinxue found Ting Yu’s words peculiar and glanced at the strongest contestant, Wind Valley, mumbling to herself. “Could it be that Ting Yu has taken a liking to this guy named Chu Mu? Otherwise, how could she say something like that? After all, the strongest people are Wind Valley and Ge Qing, and no one would have noticed Chu Mu if it weren’t for his actions yesterday.”
Standing on the battlefield, Chu Mu quietly awaited the Executor’s command.
As soon as the Executor spoke, Chu Mu immediately summoned MO Ye.
Scars still marked MO Ye’s body, and its Combat Power hadn’t fully recovered. However, MO Ye’s fighting spirit remained, and its silver eyes shone with pride and battle fervor!
“Strange, the Moonlight Fox doesn’t seem to be in good shape?” Ting Yu immediately sensed something was off with MO Ye when Chu Mu summoned it.
“What do you mean?” Xinxue asked.
“Its Combat Power doesn’t seem to have recovered. It should still be in a weak state…” Ting Yu replied softly.
“A weak state? Then… then he’s sure to lose…” Xinxue said.
“Not necessarily…” Ting Yu shook her head.
Standing beside Ting Yu and Xinxue was Wind Valley, considered the strongest of the ten contestants.
Wind Valley caught wind of the two Female Soul Pet Trainers’ quiet conversation and became somewhat interested in Chu Mu. He observed Chu Mu intently, curious about what gave this low-profile man the courage and reliance to fight against the formidable Gesen.
“Kill them!” As soon as the battle began, Gesen ordered his Mandi Monster to launch an attack on Chu Mu’s MO Ye!
Chu Mu calmly retreated while directing MO Ye, using its speed advantage to deal with the slow Mandi Monster!
When Chu Mu first encountered the Mandi Monster, he had appraised it as having decent strength and defense, but its speed was too slow. Against faster Soul Pets, the Mandi Monster could be easily countered!
Though MO Ye’s Combat Power hadn’t recovered to more than 50%, its Ninth Stage strength should be more than enough to deal with this Seventh Stage Mandi Monster!
“Idiot, it’s behind you, turn around!” After an intense battle, Gesen quickly realized that his Mandi Monster was completely outclassed in terms of speed. Despite fighting for a long time, it hadn’t managed to land a single hit on Chu Mu’s Moonlight Fox!
Chu Mu’s tactics were well-executed. He didn’t let MO Ye attack at first, focusing on dodging and evading the Mandi Monster’s powerful techniques that took a lot of energy!
“He’s good at finding his opponent’s weak points…” Wind Valley remarked slowly, having already guessed the outcome of the battle.
In fact, many people noticed that Gesen’s Mandi Monster was being led by the nose by Chu Mu’s Moonlight Fox throughout the whole battle. As time passed, the Mandi Monster was panting heavily, unable to land a blow on the agile Moonlight Fox. To everyone watching, this silver Moonlight Fox seemed like an elegant dancer, putting on an exquisite performance in the arena!
“MO Ye, Temptation!”
Chu Mu had been forbearing, waiting until now to use his skill. This was when the exhausted Mandi Monster was at its weakest and most vulnerable to such a mental technique!
Calm and decisive! Unharmed when still, lethal when in action!
