BXBX NOVEL Chapter 97 - 97 Bite Mark
“Old Ginger, it’s almost dinner time, and you haven’t been home to have a meal with your family for over a week now, right? I’ll take over and host the upcoming Spirit Battle for you, you can go home with ease!”
“Yeah, work is important, but so is family. Forget Old Li, he’s unreliable. I’ll host it for you, I guarantee everything will go smoothly.”
“Hey! What are you saying, Old Zhang? I…”
“Alright, alright, both of you are equally competent. Old Ginger, leave this to me, go home and spend some time with your wife and kids!”
In the Spirit Chef Association’s lounge specially prepared for the Spiritual Battle Judges, Jiang Gang looked sardonically at his officious colleagues, “If you guys really have so much free time, why not ask the boss to assign more work to you?”
“Er…” The others were at a loss for words.
“Alright, it’s almost time, I’m heading out.” Jiang Gang grumbled and made his way past his colleagues, putting on the exclusive uniform of a Spiritual Battle Judge, and walked out of the lounge with his whistle around his neck.
But there was a hint of amusement in his eyes.
It all started half an hour ago when the battle system assigned him to judge two battles.
Those were just ordinary Spirit Battles between Spirit Chefs, not very strong on either side.
But one person’s name was quite special.
Qin Lang.
Jiang Gang remembered, he had once been the judge of his Spirit Battle.
Surprisingly, in such a short time, this young novice had become the champion of the Dongxia City Cooking Competition, beating the champion from the neighboring city, a truly impressive achievement.
In the afternoon, Jiang Gang was proudly showing off his past dealings with the city-level champion, Qin Lang, to his colleagues on his mobile phone while watching the livestream. Then, by evening, he once again received a request to judge Qin Lang’s Spirit Battle.
The judges were randomly assigned by the battle system, so it was all a wonderful coincidence.
But after he mentioned this casually, his colleagues began to “kindly” persuade him to go home.
It was a painfully obvious plot.
“Hey, hey, hey, Old Ginger, wait up, I can still sit in the stands and watch, right?” One of the judges, seeing that he couldn’t take over, rushed up to follow, “Who said that judges can’t be spectators?”
“Yes, yes, yes! We’ll go too!” The other judges chimed in as well.
They were all curious about the one who had just won the Dongxia City Cooking Competition that afternoon.
“Just don’t disturb me when I’m judging.”
Jiang Gang ignored them and soon arrived at the designated battlefield.
Three figures were standing there, one of them was the familiar Qin Lang.
“Count of three, Spirit Battle begins!”
When he actually stood in front of Qin Lang, Jiang Gang didn’t start any idle chat as expected. Instead, he quickly got into judge mode. When both sides of the Spirit Battle were ready, he gave a loud shout.
“Three…”
“Borrow the power of Tian Shu, guard!”
Qi Xiaoyu confidently yelled out, her seven-star map lighting up with just one star behind her.
Her Food Spirit was dark red, with a long thin tail and horns like a little demon, and a pair of small pink wings, all in all, it looked quite cute.
The moment the seven-star map wrapped around her, a flash of seven-star light passed through Qi Xiaoyu’s eyes.
“Xiu Xiu, it’s our time to shine!”
“Qin Lang’s Food Spirit was just born, we can’t possibly lose to it!”
“Bring out your experience of being abused by Little Glutinous Rice, this time it’s our turn to beat them down!”
“Jiyah!”
Food Spirit Xiu Xiu nodded heavily, looking at Spicy, who was floating by Qin Lang’s side at the other end of the Spiritual Battlefield.
“Two…”
“Borrow the power of Tian Shu, guard!”
Qin Lang calmly activated the Star Spirit Protection, and began to communicate with Spicy, who was still a little unused to the first use of Star Spirit Protection.
“Don’t be nervous, believe in my command, we can definitely win!”
“Chaba!”
Spicy nodded, and the bubble-like light orb of intertwined red and green colors above its head revealed its anxious mood.
This was its first Spirit Battle since it was born, it must win!
Spicy eyed Xiu Xiu on the other side, their gazes happened to meet.
At the moment their eyes intersected, it seemed as if a spark flashed through the void!
“Gulu!”
Dan Bao, who was watching the battle from afar, cheered loudly for Qin Lang and Spicy.
It sneakily glanced at Du Weiwei and her Food Spirit not too far away.
After the battle between Qin Lang and Qi Xiaoyu, it will have to fight with Du Weiwei’s Food Spirit!
Jiang Gang took a look at the Food Spirit chosen by Qin Lang and his gaze was slightly concentrated.
He had noticed during the live broadcast of the competition that Qin Lang already had a Second Food Spirit.
At this moment, he was also very curious about what kind of combat skills this Food Spirit possessed.
“One… Spirit Battle begins!”
“Beep— ”
With a sharp whistle piercing the sky, both Food Spirits sprang into action almost simultaneously.
“Xiu Xiu! Quickly approach!”
Qi Xiaoyu put one hand on her hip and pointed forcefully towards Qin Lang.
The Food Spirit that understood her intentions let out a low cry, and in the next moment it used its wings, which actually lacked flight capabilities, to achieve its fastest flying speed, heading towards Spicy.
“We also quickly approach!” At the same time, Qin Lang issued instructions, his face showing a touch of caution, “Be careful of the opponent’s tail!”
Despite having known each other for so long, although Qin Lang had not had a Spirit Battle with Qi Xiaoyu, he still knew about her Food Spirit’s combat skills.
Combat Skill: Power Whip.
This is a melee skill, initiated by that meter-long tail of Qi Xiaoyu’s Food Spirit.
In the process of launching, Xiu Xiu’s tail will elongate to about two meters, therefore, the attack range of this ability is only two meters.
One must not underestimate its power just because the attack range is short.
If the Power Whip skill hits a Food Spirit of the same level three times, it will cause the latter to lose its attack power.
Moreover, the launching speed of this skill is extremely fast.
If it was a skill with a larger attack range, one could expend Qi Xiaoyu’s Food Spirit by attacking from a distance.
But regrettably, the attack range of Spicy’s combat skill was not large.
“Chak ka!”
Despite it being its first battle, Spicy was brave.
It let out a loud shout and flew towards Xiu Xiu at the highest speed.
The distance between the two Food Spirits rapidly shortened as they flew towards one another.
Ten meters…
Five meters…
Two meters!
In the blink of an eye, Spicy had already entered Xiu Xiu’s attack range!
“Power Whip!”
Even though she was not sure why Qin Lang chose to get close knowing her Food Spirit’s combat skills, at this moment Qi Xiaoyu was thrilled.
This was a victory simply handed to her!
As she shouted out, in the battlefield, Xiu Xiu’s tail suddenly elongated to two meters.
“Shuo!”
Accompanied by the sharp sound of whistling wind, Xiu Xiu’s tail quickly thrust towards Spicy!
That slender tail instantly transformed into a dark red whip, with the triangular part at the end stabbing sharply like a snake’s head!
Facing the rapidly enlarging shadow of the dark red whip, Spicy heard Qin Lang’s loud shout echoed in its mind and ears.
“Now! Lucky Bite Mark!”
