Chapter 119: Chapter 119 - What Was That Flash of Golden Light?

Since ‘hiding in the dark and waiting for an opportunity to strike and win in one blow’ won’t work, in that case, I’ll let the Leaf-eared Cat unleash its speed advantage in this battle environment.

I’ll let it move between the bushes and take the initiative to create the opportunity to suppress the Metal-feathered Eagle’s movements!

With this thought in mind, Annie began to activate the Leaf-eared Cat’s innate skill, ‘Cloak of Nature’ and continuously increased its speed.

With a determined gaze, she stared fixedly at the Metal-feathered Eagle that was flying at a high altitude.

As long as the Metal-feathered Eagle’s eyes could not keep up with the movements of the Leaf-eared Cat, it would reveal an opening.

At that time, Annie, who was the Leaf-eared Cat’s other pair of eyes, would seize this opportunity to order the Leaf-eared Cat to attack.

She got the Leaf-eared Cat to use its fastest and longest distance ‘Green Leaf Flying Daggers’ on the Metal-feathered Eagle in the air.

Furthermore, the ‘Green Leaf Flying Daggers’ was also a skill that required the least amount of spiritual energy for the Leaf-eared Cat.

If not for the fact that the Leaf-eared Cat’s combat strength was three ranks higher than the Metal-feathered Eagle, even the ‘Green Leaf Flying Daggers’ would probably not be able to cause any effective damage to the Metal-feathered Eagle, which was a metal-type spirit beast.

However, it was also because the Metal-feathered Eagle’s combat effectiveness rank was lower than that of the Leaf-eared Cat that Annie had the Leaf-eared Cat use the ‘Green Leaf Flying Daggers’ to hinder the Metal-feathered Eagle.

Even if the Metal-feathered Eagle could dodge or withstand the attacks of the ‘Green Leaf Flying Daggers’, which was a skill other than the innate skill ‘Cloak of Nature’ that consumed the least amount of spiritual energy for the Leaf-eared Cat, as long as the ‘Green Leaf Flying Daggers’ could cause effective damage to the Metal-feathered Eagle, Annie could have the Leaf-eared Cat use the ‘Green Leaf Flying Daggers’ to suppress the Metal-feathered Eagle by forcing the Metal-feathered Eagle to dodge the ‘Green Leaf Flying Daggers’ and leaving it with no choice but to reduce its flying height.

This way, the Leaf-eared Cat could use the tall and dense trees as its springboard and get close to the Metal-feathered Eagle to win with one strike!

Annie did not have to wait long for this opportunity.

When the Leaf-eared Cat activated its innate skill and started to accelerate, the Metal-feathered Eagle’s reaction was the same as before. It looked like its attention was not affected at all.

Furthermore, when it kept shaking its head, the direction in which its head was facing could always follow the movements of the Leaf-eared Cat.

This means that Giles wasn’t lying to me.

The Metal-feathered Eagle’s eyes could indeed track the Leaf-eared Cat.”

However, as the Leaf-eared Cat moved faster and faster, the extent of the Metal-feathered Eagle’s head shaking became smaller and smaller.

Until now. The Metal-feathered Eagle has stopped shaking its head.

This means that its eyes can no longer keep up with the accelerating Leaf-eared Cat!

At the thought of this, Annie quickly made a decision.

At the same time, she subconsciously glanced at Giles, who was standing opposite her.

Giles was frowning slightly as he looked at the greenery in the arena.

It was as if he was searching for the figure of the Leaf-eared Cat shuttling through the bushes.

However, it seemed like he still had no intention of letting the Metal-feathered Eagle take action.

At that moment, even the spectators in the spectator stand had noticed this.

“The Metal-feathered Eagle is already giddy from the movements of the Leaf-eared Cat!”

Thus, Annie seized this rare opportunity.

Using her spiritual connection, she ordered the Leaf-eared Cat to attack.

“Leaf-eared Cat, now’s the time! The Metal-feathered Eagle is giddy because of you!”

“While you are maintaining your high-speed movement, continuously throw Green Leaf Flying Daggers at the Metal-feathered Eagle!”

“Seal off the possibility of the Metal-feathered Eagle dodging the Green Leaf Flying Daggers from all directions!”

“As long as we can successfully force the Metal-feathered Eagle to reduce its flying height to the height of a tree trunk, “Immediately activate ‘Wood Spear Thrust’ to form a cage and trap it in this tall forest!”

After hearing Annie’s command to attack, the Leaf-eared Cat, which was shuttling through the bushes, did not slow down.

However, at that moment, if anyone were to stare intently at the large patch of bushes in the arena, they would be surprised to see two rapidly moving “leaves” in the bushes.

The two “leaves” were even emitting a dark green glow that was far darker than the other leaves around them.

This was the sign that the Leaf-eared Cat was about to use its’ Green Leaf Flying Daggers’ skill.

Every time the Leaf-eared Cat ran to the spot Annie pointed out, it would gently shake its head at the Metal-feathered Eagle.

Its two cat ears that were glowing with the patterns of dark green leaves would emit a dark green spiritual energy in the shape of a leaf as its head shook.

Just like that, within a second or so, the Leaf-eared Cat increased its speed to its limit.

Following Annie’s command, it threw Green Leaf Flying Daggers at the Metal-feathered Eagle from all four directions, doing its best to prevent the Metal-feathered Eagle from dodging the Green Leaf Flying Daggers!

At that moment, the spectators were discussing fervently whether the Metal-feathered Eagle could see the Leaf-eared Cat shuttling through the bushes, as well as when Miss Annie was going to let the Leaf-eared Cat attack.

That was until a portion of the spectators did not participate in the discussion and instead stared at the battlefield and exclaimed, “Hey! Guys! Look! Miss Annie finally let her Leaf-eared Cat attack the Metal-feathered Eagle!”

“Hmm? It wasn’t easy for Miss Annie to wait for such an opportunity. Why did she make the Leaf-eared Cat use the ‘Green Leaf Flying Daggers’ skill that isn’t very lethal?”

“Therefore, this is the advantage of having a high combat effectiveness rank! Even if a plant-type skill is countered by a metal-type skill, as long as the Leaf-eared Cat’s combat effectiveness rank is higher than the Metal-feathered Eagle, then even if the Green Leaf Flying Dagger is its skill with the lowest lethality, it can still cause effective damage to the Metal-feathered Eagle.”

“Most importantly, compared to other plant-type skills, the ‘Green Leaf Flying Dagger’ is not only fast and long-range, but it also consumes little spiritual energy.”

“From the looks of it, if the ‘Green Leaf Flying Daggers’ can really cause effective damage to the Metal-feathered Eagle, then just the ‘Green Leaf Flying Daggers’ skill alone will be enough to completely suppress the Metal-feathered Eagle’s subsequent actions!”

“The four Green Leaf Flying Daggers are now less than a meter away from the Metal-feathered Eagle! But why does the Metal-feathered Eagle that is hovering above the arena look like it has yet to react?”

“Is Giles that confident in the Metal-feathered Eagle’s defense? If all four ‘Green Leaf Flying Daggers’ strike it, the Metal-feathered Eagle will fall from the sky even if it doesn’t lose its ability to fight, right?”

“…”

Unlike the intense reaction of the spectators behind her, the umpire, Hash, was much calmer.

While she was watching the Metal-feathered Eagle, she also noticed the four Green Leaf Flying Daggers that were flying towards the Metal-feathered Eagle.

As an Epic-rank Beast Tamer, Hash’s vision and spiritual perception were far superior to the spectators behind her.

Therefore, she could clearly capture the trajectories of the four Green Leaf Flying Daggers.

If the Metal-feathered Eagle’s eyes can really capture the extremely fast trajectory of the Leaf-eared Cat’s movements, it will definitely be able to see the four Green Leaf Flying Daggers that are flying towards it!

Based on the trajectory of the four Green Leaf Flying Daggers, the Metal-feathered Eagle only needs to tilt to its right and flap its wings to safely dodge it.

Hash was thinking about how the Metal-feathered Eagle could dodge the Green Leaf Flying Daggers quickly and safely, when the Metal-feathered Eagle’s next action made this Elite Beast Tamer subconsciously exclaim,?What?!

The Metal-feathered Eagle had not taken any action previously and merely flapped its wings slowly to maintain its flying height.

Faced with the four Green Leaf Flying Daggers that were about to strike it, the Metal-feathered Eagle suddenly closed its wings.

Just as everyone thought that it was going to use its hard wings to withstand the blow from the Leaf-eared Cat, the Metal-feathered Eagle suddenly spread open its wings.

Four streaks of dazzling golden spiritual energy flew out from the wings of the Metal-feathered Eagle.

Then, it accurately and quickly hit the Green Leaf Flying Daggers that were flying towards it from four directions.

After the four leaf-shaped dark green spiritual energy paused momentarily in the air…

Under everyone’s astonished gaze, they suddenly split into two.

Then, like dried leaves falling after autumn, they gradually shattered and dissipated.

At that moment, in the evaluation section, everyone except Giles had a question in their minds.

What was that flash of golden light just now?
