Start With Contracting Sprites

Chapter 256: Butterfly’s New Cultivation Method (First Update)

Bang~!

The Gargoyle Dragon’s huge body smashed heavily onto the ground, and a circle of grayish-yellow dust spread in all directions with the point of impact as the center.

The audience saw that the shocking slashes on the Dragon’s thick stone armor were all emitting red light from the inside out. One could feel the burning heat just by looking at it!

As it fell from the sky, the Dragon whose wings had already been broken was still struggling. Its claws scratched the ground as it supported its body and raised its head…

Boom~!

In an instant, the dazzling sun descended from the sky and smashed right onto the Gargoyle Dragon.

Endless light and heat burst forth. Under the piercing rays, the audience forced themselves to widen their eyes and look over. But still, they could only see a huge ball of light. The light emitted made the whole field of vision white!

After a long while, although it also felt like an instant.

When the audience was blinded by the dazzling light until tears flowed down the corners of their eyes, they realized that the bright sun had already faded. The body of a dark red sprite was revealed in the rolling flames.

It spread its wings and floated in mid-air as sparks scattered everywhere. Like a fire god lording over the world, it let out a loud and clear cry.

“Squawk–”

The ground melted into a deep pit, and the Gargoyle Dragon’s huge body was buried within, remaining completely motionless.

“He, he won?”

Tong Shang, who had just left the arena for less than a minute, was stunned. He rubbed his eyes hard and couldn’t believe it.

His Master Hound was clearly beaten up in fancy ways and killed easily by the Gargoyle Dragon. How did it end up being tortured by Junior Su Hao’s Flaming Spiritcrow?

Was it still that invincible Gargoyle Dragon?

“Too strong, too strong!”

An instructor from Dragon City University re-examined Su Hao’s information. “It’s hard to imagine how a person from an ordinary family is able to outwin his peers who were born with a silver spoon in their mouths. In just two years after contracting sprites, he nurtured two sprites with invincible potential! I can’t imagine what will happen when they both break through to extraordinary level in the future!”

“There may be more than two,” another instructor said. “His first sprite has already evolved into a Butterfly Fairy. Who knows, that Butterfly Fairy might also possess invincible elite-level battle power.”

One person, three invincible sprites!

The two instructors looked at each other and couldn’t help but be glad. “If not for the fact that our school has Lan Qing, it’s very likely that the next three seasons of the league would all fall under Whale Island University’s rule…”

Fortunately…

Thinking of Su Hao and the stronger Lan Qing, the two instructors couldn’t help but sigh. “These days, young people are too scary.”

At the same time, in the broadcasting hall.

On the screen, Dragon City University VS a certain key university. An exciting battle had just ended.

“Now, let’s take a look at Whale Island University’s competition. They are slightly behind in terms of time, they should be in time…”

Huang Tianlei said as he switched the scene to the third venue.

He saw…

The endless light and heat had faded, and a sprite which appearance couldn’t be seen clearly was buried in the ground.

The judge announced the result.

He was stunned.

What happened to the big battle?

…

After the group battles ended, Whale Island University emerged as first place with their score.

Tomorrow, they would rest for a day before starting the elimination round.

At this point, the league journey of many teams had been put to an end. Only the last 16 universities and 16 teams could showcase their abilities in front of a wider stage and a larger audience.

During the day of the intermission, the popularity of the league continued to increase. Some nosy people evaluated the ten sprites with the most outstanding performance during the group battles.

The ten sprites with the highest votes.

The Gargoyle Dragon was originally one of them, and it was ranked in the top five. The other sprite in the top five was Thunder Roaring, but…

“That Dragon can’t make it. It only looks fierce on the surface! No, no!”

They knew nothing!

When the captain of Yunhua University read the comments on the Internet, he was almost mad.

But who would care so much on the Internet? Being good-looking and powerful were the prerequisites for them to become fans of a sprite. And clearly, in their eyes, the Dragon that was crushed by the Flaming Spiritcrow was trash.

On the other hand, the Flaming Spiritcrow displayed an invincible stance, like a Flaming God descending upon the world.

I’m a fan!

Dazed Crow, which only fought one round, immediately had its own fans, while the Big Fat Bear had even more fans.

Su Hao was confused. “Isn’t anyone paying attention to who their Sprite Trainers are? Don’t they know that this is a result of us enduring many hardships while nurturing the sprites?”

This batch of netizens couldn’t make it!

He was so angry!

But of course, people were paying attention to him, and in fact, there were many of them.

The performance of the Big Fat Bear and Dazed Crow made Su Hao enter the eyes of many school instructors.

Gongye Tianrui, the captain of Fiery Bird’s school team, was watching the replay of Dazed Crow’s battle. It wasn’t very clear, but as a Sprite Trainer specializing in fire-element, he had analyzed a lot of information from minute details. “That Flaming Spiritcrow must have extraordinary battle power at the weak level.”

“Of course…” He paused and said,” Weak extraordinary battle power refers to being under the Blazing Sun state, and clearly, an elite can’t maintain it for long. ”

“Then, if we’re battling against it, can we just use a stalling strategy?”

Gongye Tianrui glanced at it. “If it’s your extraordinary-level ace, you can kill it head-on without stalling for time. But if it’s the elite-level of the second tier, then… there’s more than enough time for it to kill one or two elite-level limit sprites while maintaining Blazing Sun.”

“However, the strength of the Flaming Spiritcrow is only visible in the group battles. At the elimination round, it’s already an extraordinary stage. Rather than paying attention to the Flaming Spiritcrow and Thunder Roaring, why don’t we find a way to figure out the trump cards of their main team members? Don’t be fooled by the smoke bombs released by Whale Island.”

Captain Gongye made a lot of sense. The team members all restrained their emotions, analyzed the data, and trained their sprites.

On the eve of the elimination round, every team was making their final effort.

…

“Gurgle~!”

Butterfly, who had reached the peak of Sprite Commandeering, put down its cell phone. A sense of accomplishment lingered in its heart. In an instant… its mental strength had risen!

“This works too?” Su Hao looked at the singles, tens and hundreds of digits that were constantly jumping on the interface as he blinked.

It seemed like… he had gotten a new cultivation posture.

“It might be due to the sublimation of the state of mind, and Butterfly’s very high spiritual force foundation, hmm, and my own nurturing…”

The third point was the key.

Seeing that the rise in number had already slowed down, Su Hao thought about it, bought two games with the computer, and inadvertently revealed them to Butterfly.

“Gurgle~?”

Butterfly, who was just about to change its taste, caught a glimpse of the two games on Su Hao’s computer and blinked its big eyes.

One was “The Soul of a Sprite Trainer 3” and the other was “Only Dog”.

He glanced at the introduction. They all seemed pretty interesting, gurgle~!

Ten minutes later, when Su Hao saw Butterfly, who had already started playing the games, he gave it a few days of leave under the excuse of restoring its energy before the league.

“Generally speaking, as long as Butterfly dies dozens of times and then kills the Boss, it will definitely be filled with a sense of accomplishment. When the time comes, my mental strength will sublimate again.”

“It’s really not easy for me to increase its strength!”

Su Hao thought to himself. At night, he “inadvertently” walked past Butterfly again, his eyes glancing at the computer screen.

Let me see, how many times have you died… eh?

On the screen, a certain character was showing off in front of the Boss with a very graceful posture, before finally killing it while remaining unharmed!

“Gurgle~!”

Butterfly made a sound of appreciation.

Su Hao fell silent.

Why did it become like this?

Clearing the level without any setbacks or dying dozens of times was a loss of one’s soul!

What exactly went wrong!

Su Hao thought about it. After comparing horizontally with Butterfly’s peak Sprite Commandeering battle and the game he just bought today, he finally discovered the root of the problem.

No teammates!

“When fighting the Union of Sprite Trainers, Butterfly would either team up with Big Fat Bear, Little Bright Night, or… team up with them.”

That was the key to Butterfly’s inability to reach the peak.

So…

“In order to let Butterfly’s mental strength continue sublimating, I have to give Big Fat Bear and Little Bright Night a chance to play the game. As a Sprite Trainer, I’m really too good to my sprites!”
