Chapter 16: Formidable Combat Technique, The Pinnacle of Ancient Wood Elves

“Please don’t treat me like a child!”

Lil Wan hovered in front of Ye Xuan and rolled her eyes.

However, the alluring scent coming from the lollipop compelled her to unleash her Mind Energy, take the lollipop, levitate it in front of herself, and give it a lick with her teeny tiny tongue.

Immediately after licking it, she couldn’t help but squint her eyes in delight.

Like a cute kitten being petted.

“Look at you.”

Ye Xuan dotingly pinched Lil Wan and placed her on his shoulder.

Then, he found a place to sit down and, ignoring the other students’ watchful gazes, turned on the Combat Watch on his wrist.

A virtual screen popped up in front of him, and the picture was remarkably vivid.

“Search for combat videos of Apprentice-Level Ancient Wood Elves,” Ye Xuan said.

Beep!

Following a soft beep, the Combat Watch flickered, and various videos immediately appeared on the screen in front of him.

Besides that, these combat videos were sorted according to rating.

Ye Xuan made a casual tap, and the video positioned at the very top was played before his eyes.

The high-definition 3D picture made it look as if the battle were happening right under his nose.

The first video that appeared on the virtual screen was of a student from the high school affiliated with Zhongzhou University. It was from two years ago.

“The art of combat, the pinnacle of Ancient Wood Elves.”

“Year 2352, Yu Lingling, eleventh-grade student of Zhongzhou University’s affiliated high school, and an Ancient Wood Elf’s fearsome battle against five Tempest Wolves out in the wild.”

All these videos required payment to watch.

But after Ye Xuan was recognized as the owner of this Combat Watch, he found that there was already 100,000 dollars loaded on the device.

Evidently, this was one of the benefits provided to him by Jiangzhou University.

Curious, Ye Xuan played the video.

Immediately afterward, he saw five Tempest Wolves, which were half a person tall and had staring crimson eyes, rushing through a jungle towards a quiet young girl at extremely fast speeds.

In front of the young girl stood an Ancient Wood Elf with dark green skin and pointy ears. The elf was taller than the girl.

When the elf saw the five Tempest Wolves charging towards them, it unhurriedly stretched out its hand.

Then, a green vine went flying out of its palm.

This vine, which had fine leaves growing on it, became thinner and thinner as it flew out, and was gradually coated in a black metallic substance.

In an instant, the vine spanned over ten meters, and like a rope-dart, it pierced into the eyes of one of the Tempest Wolves with a swoosh.

Then, it penetrated through its eye and into its skull.

Boom!

In the next instant, the Ancient Wood Elf focused its consciousness, and the vine that had pierced through the Tempest Wolf’s eye abruptly quivered, sending the now-dead Tempest Wolf flying into the air.

That quiver was very ingenious. It instantly caused the vine, which was attached to the Tempest Wolf, to turn into a heel rope.

The vine-turned-heel-rope tripped the other four Tempest Wolves rushing towards them, causing them to fall to the ground.

Swoosh swoosh swoosh!

Immediately after, the Ancient Wood Elf focused its consciousness, and from its hands shot out a second vine, then a third vine...

Controlling multiple vines at once obviously affected the speed of these vines.

But as the Tempest Wolves were all tied up on the ground, unable to move, these vines penetrated their bodies like phantoms.

“Wow, holy moly...”

On Ye Xuan’s shoulder, Lil Wan, who was still sqinting her eyes in delight as she licked her lollipop, instantly opened her eyes wide. Even the lollipop floating in front of her almost fell to the ground.

“That sure is incredible!”

Ye Xuan had the same reaction.

Originally, he’d thought that the only difference between him and the genius Beast Tamers who had awakened their talent earlier than him was their level.

As for combat experience, as long as his beast was of a high enough grade, he should be able to bridge the gap.

After all, it was common sense that the better the quality of the beast, the stronger the beast’s combat power among beasts at the same level.

But after watching this video footage, he realized how absolutely wrong he’d been.

Compared to this “Yu Lingjing” girl in the video, as he was now, he probably wouldn’t be able to best her at the time this video was taken, not even with ten of himself.

At the same time, as the video ended, multiple comments popped up above the video.

“Incredible feat! This truly is a spectacular display of the skill of Ancient Wood Elves at their best!”

“I have nothing to say. Lingjing is the best!”

In addition to these, someone had posted a more detailed comment:

“Yu Lingjing’s Ancient Wood Elf has mastered the spawning technique of the Ebony Vine, and also ‘Psychic Power,’ which is rare even among three-star Ancient Wood Elves.

“That’s why she was able to spawn so many Ebony Vines at once and even turn the tips of the Ebony Vines into darts.

“If it had been any other Ancient Wood Elf, they probably would have had a difficult time accomplishing such a feat.

“However, if an Ancient Wood Elf possesses the ability of “Psychic Power” and an ability similar to the spawning of Ebony Vine or Ironwood Vine, it’s not impossible for its owner to achieve something similar.

“Of course, lots and lots of hardcore practice is definitely indispensable.”

Ye Xuan scrolled through the comments with his finger, and gradually understood that the Ancient Wood Elves’ spawning technique could be used in this way.

At the same time, he hadn’t realized that Lil Wan’s Psychic Power was an extremely rare ability among Ancient Wood Elves.

Before this, the only thing he’d known was that not all Ancient Wood Elves were of three-star grade.

Most Ancient Wood Elves were of two-star grade.

And only had the two abilities of Natural Affinity and Vine Spawning.

The other ability, conjuring Tear of Life and using it to cast restoration techniques, was a feat that only three-star Ancient Wood Elves could accomplish.

As for Psychic Power, even three-star Ancient Wood Elves didn’t necessarily have it.

However, he hadn’t known how great of an ability Psychic Power was.

He’d always thought that Lil Wan could only assume a supportive role in the future.

“Looks like you’re pretty awesome,” Ye Xuan said to Lil Wan with a smile.

“Of course!” Lil Wan waved her fist as she stared intently at the Ancient Wood Elf in the video. “With the same talents, I’ll definitely surpass her!”

Truth be told, she wasn’t so competitive on the inside. However, she felt that the scene in the video where the Ancient Wood Elf killed five Tempest Wolves without so much as a change in her expression was really, really cool.

Of course, once she became stronger, she would definitely be able to provide Ye Xuan with greater help.

“Yeah, we’ll work hard together!” Ye Xuan nodded.

Immediately after, the two started to watch another video.

...

At the same time, Yunhai City, Da’an Leather Factory.

Both Ye Guotao and Su Yunmeng worked here.

Their job was to deal with the fur of various monsters. Day after day, they were very exhausted.

While Ye Xuan watched the combat videos in Beast Taming Class, Ye Guotao walked into the office of the owner of the leather factory with the two cigarettes he’d bought that morning.
