Elven Tournament Master

Chapter 24
The astonishment of the two of them was only fleeting.

Flying Mantis's performance just now was indeed unexpectedly amazing, but it was still not enough to change the status quo!
"Sea stars, bubble rays!"

"Flying Mantis, come back, run!"

Taking advantage of the moment when the big needle bee swarm attacked, Guan Xiaoxia directed Hai Xingxing to release a large bubble, blocking the big needle bee's sight.

Then the two quickly continued to run!

Although Flying Mantis couldn't understand, after seeing Chen Youming waving to summon it, it happily chased after it.

At the moment, it is probably the one with the least sense of crisis among all the pets here.

After running for a few minutes, the two hid in a gap between a rock and a tree trunk.

There was still the sound of "buzzing" wings flapping outside, indicating that they were not out of danger yet.

"I can't go on like this, I have to find a way to lure those big needle bees away." Guan Xiaoxia whispered.

Chen Youming thought for a while, then looked at the Flying Mantis who had no sense of crisis and started to gnaw the fruit again.

"Shadow Clone." He hopped side to side in a small range in the crack.

"Shadow Clone." Jumping left and right again.

"Shadow Clone." Continue to jump left and right.

Until the Flying Mantis tilted its head and nodded with half understanding again.

Only then did he stop and ordered: "Shadow clone!"

"Shh!"

In an instant, the body of the Flying Mantis swayed left and right twice, pulling out a series of afterimages around it.

Counting in detail, there are as many as 8 clones!
Then Chen Youming circled the clone with his hand, and then pointed to the direction that the big needle bee was chasing.

"Clone, go there."

After understanding the order, the 8 clones of Flying Mantis all disappeared in place with an incredible speed.

It shocked even Chen Youming—is this really a speed value of only 47 points?

But this is not the time to think about it.

After sending out the clone to lure the enemy, the two hurriedly left the gap where they were hiding and ran towards the distant city.

Not far away, those big needle bees who were still running rampant quickly spotted several green clones flying over.

It's just that these clones of the flying mantis returned to their original cute and cute appearance after no follow-up orders, and they always reacted slowly to the attack of the big needle bee.

So soon, these clones were all easily wiped out.

However, this also successfully attracted the group of big needle bees to stop and search near the location where the clone appeared.

During this period, Chen Youming and Guan Xiaoxia finally managed to run away.

It wasn't until the "buzzing" noise was not heard for a long time, and the outline of the city emerged not far away, that the two panting and running stopped and breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that they were safe.

……

The flying mantis also followed them all the time. Seeing the two of them stop, it habitually approached them and landed on Chen Youming's shoulder.

"It's really thanks to this flying mantis this time." Guan Xiaoxia supported her knees, panting and sighing.

But Chen Youming grabbed the flying mantis on his shoulder and stared at it carefully with a thoughtful expression.

"Or, you might as well subdue it." Guan Xiaoxia suggested.

Although subduing elves is a private matter of the trainer, outsiders should not interfere logically, but this flying mantis seems to be really close to Chen Youming, so she suggested that.

It's just that Chen Youming didn't answer immediately, but slowly put it back on the ground, then took out the elf ball and summoned Xiaohu, as if he wanted to verify something.

"Little fox, try to fight it once."

Although Guan Xiaoxia didn't know what he wanted to do, after hearing this, she still took a few steps back in cooperation to get out of the battle field, and at the same time released her own starfish to press the formation as before.

"Huhu!" The little fox who came out of the elf ball uttered a confident cry.

The experience of winning once before made her full of confidence, and she was no longer as timid as before.

But at this moment, the flying mantis standing opposite her still tilted his head in a daze, as if he didn't know what happened.

"Huhu!" The little fox yelled twice again, and at the same time stretched out his small hand and hooked his fingers at the flying mantis, making a provocative gesture common to all races.

So Flying Mantis finally understood what was going on, and his eyes gradually became sharper.

Next, it shook its wings suddenly, disappeared from the spot in an instant, flew to the top of the little fox, raised its saber arm, and slashed it down!

"Shh!"

With this knife, there was only the sound of breaking through the air.

Obviously nothing was cut.

Even though there was no order from Chen Youming, Xiaohu skillfully used teleportation to dodge at the last moment.

Next, the two elves immediately showed two completely different expressions——

The little fox teleported to the side of the flying mantis, opened his eyes immediately, and planned to release the skill "Mind Power" to attack!

And the flying mantis——

After its own attack failed, it seemed to be lost all of a sudden...

That long, prodigious arc of reflexes seemed to come back, leaving it in place, completely oblivious to what it was supposed to do next.

So without any suspense, the shock wave of Xiaohu's thought power knocked it out cleanly.

"Hey! You're going too far!" Seeing the flying mantis who had helped them along the way being beaten, Guan Xiaoxia immediately put her hips on her hips and glared, like an angry little kitten.

It's just that as the one being glared at, Chen Youming turned a blind eye to her at the moment, with one hand on his chest and the other on his chin, with a thoughtful expression on his face, he didn't know what he was thinking.

Until the Flying Mantis who was knocked into the air by the mind power slowly climbed up, swung the knife arm again to attack, but was easily teleported by the little fox again to avoid the mind power and sent flying, the ending remained unchanged.

Only then did he speak to stop the fight.

"Okay, little fox, stop."

Just when Guan Xiaoxia wanted to take this opportunity to teach him a lesson.

But he saw him approaching the field, helped up the fallen flying mantis, and at the same time cooperated with his body language to teach——

"Consecutive slash." He waved his hand and slashed continuously.

"Shadow Clone." He repeatedly jumped left and right.

"understand?"

Flying Mantis was stunned for two seconds, and finally nodded cutely.

"Okay, little fox, come again."

"Hey! You can't finish it! You are not allowed to abuse it like this again." Guan Xiaoxia couldn't bear it and rushed forward to stop him.

But this time, Chen Youming smiled inscrutablely, "Don't get excited, just watch, the result may be completely different this time."

Guan Xiaoxia was suspicious for a while.

At the same time, on the field, Xiaohu started to provoke again.

The Flying Mantis shook its head, getting rid of the dizziness from falling twice, then raised its saber arm and vibrated its wings——

Once again rushed to the little fox!
"Shh!"

Cut it down with a knife, and then cut it into nothing...

Habitually, the Flying Mantis was confused again...

But at this moment, Chen Youming's voice sounded, "Shadow Clone."

As soon as the words fell, just for a moment——

With a whoosh, the eight clones spread out and formed a horizontal row.

The thought power shock wave released by the little fox shattered one of the clones, but failed to cause effective damage as before.

then--

"Slash."

Another order came.

"Shh!"

This knife is as fast as lightning!
The moment Chen Youming uttered the word "cut", the light of the knife came to the top of Xiaohu's head!

The sword light cut down, but unfortunately still failed to cut the real thing.

Only this time, after teleporting away, the little fox released three teleportations in a row, quickly rushed back to Chen Youming's side, and then threw himself into his arms.

"Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow." the little fox queen who buried her head in Chen Youming's arms screamed in fear, the tail behind her back kept trembling, obviously terrified.

The knife just now was too fast!

It's almost time for the little fox to fail to react!

She was so frightened that she immediately gave up the fight, only thinking about hurrying back to Chen Youming's arms and shivering.

And the one who slashed this knife turned out to be the Flying Mantis who was always slow to react just now and was teased by her at will!

Comparing before and after, they are completely different!
Guan Xiaoxia was dumbfounded.
