After Mai Linh ended explaining what Spirit Net is and some more talks about the group Lin Ke finally stopped making weird faces and decided to speak.
"Just now i received message from one of my Elders. Its the describtion of the Beast we are supposed to hunt, the so called Overlord of the Valley". Her words instantly silenced everyone, after all even if the Beast didnt pose much threat to them as both Lin Ke and Argon were most likely being able to slay it on 1 vs 1 battle, they still didnt want to lose their life due to random mistake! While it was complete cheating and breaking any rules the trial could have, no one said anything! After all, it was not them cheating using Spirit Net to leak crucial information, they only went with the flow...
"The Beast is called Mountain Wolf, which in fact is kind of common beast as there are thousands of them in the Sect. But as popular as it is, fully grown adult specimen is a natural born Astral Beast with Void Core cultivation. While most of them has certain innate ability, this one has is special! His innate ability is called 'One with Earth' which not boost him in every aspect by moderate amout, his defense during this ability duration shouldnt be worse than the fully grown speciman has!"
That was the reason Lin Ke had many diffrent thoughts, they werent really scared of the Beast offense, but if it had incredible defense adding to that natural agility this wolf had - killing it would be hard as it could run at any moment!
"This Beast is of Earth element, so its defense is already very good among similar grade yet it has such a annoying ability. Our plan from earlier wont work for sure, we have to make new one. I am also aware that this wolf can use many spiritual spells that control earth for offense and in truth he has the ability to kill us if we will take it not serious enough" The moment 'kill us' words left her cute lips grave silence erupted once again. After all, no matter what said and done they valued their life very much!
"Its not the time to create exact plan we will follow, but i want for all of You to think of a way our group can beat this wolf without suffering any loses. We will resume this topic 3 days later after we reach central areas" While she already had many guesses how to tackle down this Beast some of them would die! While she didnt really care losing them before the fight against the Chosen of Bloodlight Sect would make her overall combat power weaker and it was something she didnt want to consider!
Another possibility was that they wont be first to find the Beast and they will have to fight another group before even enganging this wolf in the combat. There were too many ifs, while she had clear knowledge thanks to her Elders who was in the trial, with what kind of group supporting them and more or less where was their location thanks to them watching the trial! She had to consider that other Chosen had the same knowledge! Her strenght was the group which was without a doubt the strongest one among all of them and she planned to use them to kill at least one Chosen!
Hearing about Mountain wolf made Ren Li gloomy eyes finally lit up! It was his area of expertise, he was meant for this job. He had to prove himself, gain Lin Ke approval and affection by comming up with a perfect plan to kill this Beast! Then his Goddess would slowly find how awesome he is and fall for him... As Ren Li was again wild into his fantasies the meal was about to end and their journey was about to start again!
