Chapter 190 Animal Morphing
Edited by: pnemnn
Zhou Yu was very afraid of pain. When he practiced with Bubu, every time he was hit by Bubu, he would jump up and down screaming in pain half a day. The boy’s skill was not as good as Bubu, but the strength of his attack was absolutely as powerful as Bubu when it trained him. This could be clearly seen when Zhou Yu’s stick hit his stick. Zhou Yu was certain that it would definitely not feel good if he were hit by it. If he were lucky, he might just get some bruises, but if he were not lucky, it was also possible for him to become heavily injured.
At the thought of this, Zhou Yu instantly broke out in cold sweat.
Bubu also saw that Zhou Yu started to reveal his weakness. If it did not do anything, the situation on the fighting ground would start to reverse. So it came to the side of Zhou Yu and said angrily, “I told you so many times that you need to spend more time practicing your skill. But you are always loafing around. Now look at you, you can not even defeat a little boy. I have lost all my face because of you.”
Zhou Yu was also not happy. He thought to himself that Bubu’s face was always used to act cute, and every day its ass would be kicked by Jack the mouse. Simply speaking, its supposed face was already lost a long time ago. And since Bubu itself was defeated by other people every day, naturally, it should not say this to Zhou Yu. Unfortunately, now there were many people watching him, so he could not refute Bubu. He could only endure this guy’s continuous criticism while continuing to attack.
Bubu took a look at the old monk and said, “The young man is only defending himself, it seems like he wants to wait until you use everything. Probably he was instructed by that old monk, and the old monk probably wants to see if the technique you learned is the same as the manual he had. Now that you have pretty much used all of your strength. If the old monk gives the young man a command to attack, you’ll be in trouble.”
Oh, my god! If you can tell what they want to do, then why don’t you help me now?!
Zhou Yu had been working with Bubu for quite a long time, so naturally, Bubu immediately understood what Zhou Yu was thinking. It sighed and said, “Originally, I wanted you to learn something from this fight. Even if you were defeated in this fight, it would still be a good lesson. At least, it would make you practice harder in the future. But I really need that manual. So I have no choice but to help you. Now, let me get inside you!”
Er… Get inside me? Why does it sound so wrong?
It turns out that Bubu was talking about a master/apprentice skill, which allowed Bubu to enter Zhou Yu’s body in a short amount of time. Just like how evil spirit possesses one’s body. After Bubu possessed his body, Zhou Yu’s physical strength, and skills would be increased dramatically, but only for half an hour. And the price was very high, it needed to consume one level of friendliness.
At the moment, the level of friendliness that Bubu had towards him, was five and a half stars, which was the highest in Luhua village. In two years, Zhou Yu was only able to increase it to five stars. On average, about one star in five months. For half an hour of fight, he must consume half a year of hard work. It was such a waste.
Another consequence was that once Bubu’s friendliness dropped to four and a half stars after the fight, the master/apprentice relationship would be ended automatically, leaving him to only practice on his own before he was able to recover the friendliness back to the five stars again.
For the blueprint of the flying bird knight’s academy, Zhou Yu eventually decided to use the skill. Zhou Yu nodded, and then a dialogue window popped up in front of him: “Your master Bubu is sending you a request of ‘combination’. Do you agree?”
Is there a need to ask? Of course, Agree!
The old monk was watching the fight on the side from the beginning. From Zhou Yu’s moves, he could finally determine that the skill Zhou Yu learned was the same as the skill that Xiaobao learned. And seeing that Zhou Yu probably had used all his strength, he secretly made a gesture, signaling Xiaobao to end the fight now. But at this moment, Zhou Yu’s attack suddenly stopped, and he then stood there, completely motionless.
Xiaobao was a little confused because his master told him that before he gave him any signal, he must only defend himself, and not attempt to attack. This was the reason why he was always guarding himself in the fight earlier. Although Zhou Yu’s kungfu was not bad, the changes between each move were relatively stiff. He could clearly see that he did not have real combat experience, so it would be relatively easy for him to defeat Zhou Yu.
However, these moves were really familiar to him, and many of them were the same as the skills that the master had been teaching him. But his master had clearly said before that there was no one else in the world who knew about this skill. So who was this uncle named Zhou Yu?
While thinking, the uncle’s attack suddenly stopped, after a long breath, he then raised his eyes. But the look in his eyes was completely different. Originally, he couldn’t see the fighting spirit in his eyes. And when they had eye contact, Zhou Yu would immediately look away, but now it became very determined as if he had become an entirely different person.
If Xiaobao had the eye of the ACG world, he would see that Zhou Yu had morphed into a beast. His face started to reveal animal facial features, and a pair of furry ears grew out of his head, and a huge squirrel tail appeared from his back.
At first glance, it was kind of cute.
The old monk seemed to have felt the change of atmosphere on the fighting ground so he immediately signaled Xiaobao again to use full strength. So as Xiaobao let out a roar, he began to fight back.
Suddenly, the offense and defense were reversed.
At first, it was Zhou Yu, who attacked non-stop, but now it was the opposite. Originally, the old monk thought that Xiaobao would be able to defeat Zhou Yu easily. However, to his surprise, Zhou Yu easily blocked Xiaobao’s attack.
This was unbelievable. Does it mean that Zhou Yu did not use all his strength earlier on?
As the fight continued, Xiaobao was also shocked. Unexpectedly, he could not break through the defense of Zhou Yu! Moreover, the speed of his opponent was getting faster and faster, each hit became stronger and stronger. Although the moves did not change much, it started to have more variations, and it was no longer as stiff as before.
Was this the same person!?
Xiaobao did not understand it but Zhou Yu and Bubu finally completed the combination skill.
When Zhou Yu was a child, he always felt that Ultraman was quite stupid, because every time, Ultraman had to wait until he did not have much time left, and then use the ultimate skill to kill the monster in a hurry. The real fight should be exactly like what Zhou Yu did after combining with Bubu. Without any hesitation, Zhou Yu used all his strength on the young man.
Then the young man was defeated.
The crowd instantly broke into loud applause. The little boss’ kungfu was indeed as awesome as what other people said. Especially the moment before the fight finished, the stick he waved was so fast that they could not even see it clearly.
Zhou Fu also stared at Zhou Yu in disbelief. He did not expect that Boy Yu was this good at kungfu. But why had he never heard of anyone talking about it before. Normally, this kind of skill could not be learned in a short period of time.
He was truly a mysterious young man.
The old monk recited the Buddha’s name and then walked toward Zhou Yu, “Mr. Zhou, congratulations on your victory. I hope you can pass on the manual to future generations.”
Fortunately, the old monk was willing to accept defeat. He did not use other excuses, otherwise, he would need to find other ways to get the manual.
Xiaobao, who was defeated, did not show any resentment. After he stood up from the ground, he thanked Zhou Yu very politely for giving him such a valuable lesson, then he stood behind the old monk meekly.
Then, the old monk told the story of Xiaobao to Zhou Yu.
Xiaobao was an orphan. He was adopted as a little novice monk by the old monk but the old monk did not want Xiaobao to stay in the temple his entire life. So he tried to find many ways to send Xiaobao out of the temple. However, he could not find anyone whom they could trust. A few days ago, they accidentally saw the video on Zhou Yu having a fight with Tan Xiuran. He found that the lance technique Zhou Yu used was very similar to his. Thinking that Zhou Yu might come from the same sect as the person who gave him the manual, and he might even be able to take care of Xiaobao for him,
So they came to the amusement park.
And so this was the story of the little novice monk, Xiaobao.
