The Cockroach-like Girl Is My Beast

Chapter 83: He Is the Challenger


Not only did Vishdair learn the Explosion Fist, but she also seemed to incorporate the killing aura honed within the Illusion Realm into her "Fearful Face." This not only advanced the skill to a Green Skill but also increased its proficiency by a level.

"Whew... very good, it reminds me of how it used to feel."

With a long exhale, Vishdair ended the punching pose she held for several seconds, retracting her fist which still glowed with a faint red light. She spread her fingers, and the residual ether around her fingertips gradually dissipated.

"You worked hard."

Lin Guang ceased using the Heart of Terra, handed her a bottle of mineral water to cool down, and said with a smile, "As expected of you, learning the Explosion Fist in just two weeks is much faster than I anticipated."

"No need to flatter me so much."

Vishdair unscrewed the bottle cap and finished it in one go, then raised her hand to wipe her rosy lips, "My previous Source Stone techniques gave me similar experiences, otherwise I wouldn't have managed to execute it so quickly."

"I just didn't expect a young master like you could go crazy and match Sakaz in intensity."

This compliment left Lin Guang momentarily stunned, but he quickly realized something—Vishdair's right arm was trembling unnaturally, and her brow was slightly furrowed.

"Let me have a look."

Lin Guang stood up, placing his right hand on her shoulder and his left hand on her wrist.

The Hand of Full Mastery was activated, perceiving the chaotic fire attribute ether flowing inside, which was gradually calming down.

Lin Guang pondered for a moment and asked, "How is the muscle condition?"

"Not injured, just slightly fatigued, it will recover in a few minutes."

After a moment of thought, he concluded, "Part of this is due to insufficient proficiency and development of the Explosion Fist, while another part is the nature of the Explosion Fist itself, causing some recoil on your arm during the blast."

"Overall, this is a normal phenomenon, right?"

"That's correct. If you can hold out longer during the next engagement using Crystal to experience further evolution of the Explosion Fist, this issue should significantly improve. By the way, how much ether did you use?"

"Around twenty percent, I estimate."

A trace of delight appeared on Lin Guang's face.

——Even at twenty percent, the destructive power is already so high, almost comparable to an Explosive Shot using fifty percent ether.

And the charging time is much shorter than that of the Explosive Shot!

Although there's a risk of close combat and recoil, the benefits are already enormous.

As expected of a Blue Grade skill!

"This skill is indeed very impressive." Vishdair licked her lips with a scarlet tongue, battle intent boiling in her amber eyes, "If before, my fist could directly drive the Source Stone technique into an enemy's body..."

Lin Guang could tell right away what she was thinking—she wasn't satisfied with stationary targets and wanted opponents worthy of her combat. This was also one of the reasons Lin Guang brought her to the training center.

"No rush for now, the training room has been open for an hour, let's rest for a bit, and I'll take you to practice later."

"Alright."

...

The combat arena of the training center, though not as large as the school, was adequately equipped, with dedicated areas for popular attributes. It could meet the combat needs of most Tier Three and below Spirit Beasts without requiring advance reservations. It encouraged strangers to battle on the platform, with a pay-per-use system where the loser pays.

The entire combat arena was divided into areas number one to three, respectively corresponding to Levels 0~9, 10~19, and 20~29.

On the registration desk, there was a pot of Timid Mimosa about thirty to forty centimeters tall. It would close its leaves according to the level of the toucher, a somewhat inaccurate but cheap level confirmation method. Vishdair lightly touched it, closing one leaf, representing that the toucher had not yet reached Tier One.

The staff first looked Vishdair up and down in surprise, confirming her identity, then glanced at Lin Guang at the front desk again and said, "Are you sure you want to go to Area Two?"

"Yes." After a pause, Lin Guang explained, "My partner has the Blue Elite Level potential, and I also have a Blue Level talent."

Double Blue.

The staff paused slightly, a hint of unabashed envy flashing through his eyes. "Then indeed, encountering danger is unlikely."

"But today is quite the coincidence, seeing two Blues in one day when it's rare to see even one every two to three weeks. By the way, rules are rules, sign this disclaimer."

Lin Guang signed it and took Vishdair into Area Two. He looked around, trying to find a suitable opponent for her, but unexpectedly caught sight of a hairpin shaped like Golden Birch Leaves among the crowd. Upon closer inspection, Lin Guang unconsciously widened his eyes.

He saw Miaomiao wearing a light green waist-cinched dress, her long, slender white legs particularly eye-catching. The hem of her dress swayed gently with each step she took, and the stray strand atop her head, along with her hair, bobbed with her steps like a beckoning cat's paw.

Her feet were clad in size 34 pure white leather shoes with matching lace-bordered socks, drawing the gaze to her proportionate and smooth white ankles.

If there was any flaw in this elf-like maiden... perhaps it was that she embodied the stereotypical Archer Elf, unlike the legendary Amazon Warrior, she didn't need to push her body to extremes.

She seemed busy with something, running back and forth, her hair fluttering in the gentle breeze. The teardrop mole beneath her left eye served as the finishing touch, adding a touch of youthfulness and playfulness to her appearance.

This was Lin Guang's first time seeing her in anything other than her uniform, and she even wore light makeup.
