Chapter 235 Embrace In The Dark (1/2)
Liu Yan indeed went up to a higher stage: She got promoted to the second stage of the middle period from the early period.
Qin Hao gave everyone a vacation, but Liu Yan did not go to rest like others. She continued to stay in the base to cultivate and as a result, she made a breakthrough that she hadn't made for a long time.
Martial cultivation could be very unpredictable. Maybe a cultivator could not break through for years, but when his mentality changed or he comprehended something, he would overcome that obstacle in a moment and made a breakthrough.
Liu Yan changed in mentality. She moved on and hid her mind in the bottom of her heart, so as to make a breakthrough.
Hearing that Liu Yan progressed, the rest of the team members were envious of her. The Baldy secretly encouraged himself to breakthrough to a second-stage martial cultivator of the middle period as early as possible. He was now left behind a small level by Liu Yan.
”Good.” Qin Hao slightly nodded his head and said nothing else. He turned to the topic and looked serious, ”I think General Li had told you everything. You all understand the significance of tomorrow's battle. I have no more words, and just want to teach you the last move. I hope you can put it in good use.”
Realizing that Qin Hao was going to teach them a new move, the team immediately focused on Qin Hao, being afraid to be left behind by teammates too much.
Under their gaze, Qin Hao took a slender silver needle from his waist and showed it to them.
”A needle?” The Sky Group members were puzzled: What could they do with such a small needle?
”This silver needle is what I use to cure the disease as well as to kill the enemies.” Qin Hao introduced earnestly, ”When I first went out, I used this tiny needle to kill the enemies under their noses. Now I will teach you how to use it. As for how much you can learn and how proficiency you will depend on your own ability. Perfect yourself in using this needle, and you can have one more way to save your lives tomorrow. ”
Then, Qin Hao taught them how to use a silver needle.
Don't underestimate this tiny thing. Making good use of it tasked skills. The needle was too small and light that throwing it out for some distance was difficult. Without proper skill, it would be blown away by the wind, hence lost its lethality.
...
”Woo--, woo--!”
When Qin Hao was teaching his team to use the silver needle, an earthshaking noise sounded like a wolf howling came from outside the base.
Everyone changed their faces because of the horrible wolf howls. When they were going to react, Qin Hao stopped them. He told them calmly, ”It is Little Monster in the promotion, so don't make a fuss. You go back and practice, and I'll go out to have a look.”
”Yes.” The team followed Qin Hao’s order and left after response.
Watching them went out, Li Zhanwu felt he should also leave. It was late today, so he should go to rest. No matter how dangerous tomorrow would be, he must be at the scene. That was his mission of being a soldier.
”We'll count on you tomorrow, Qin Hao.” Before leaving, Li Zhanwu pinned all his hopes on Qin Hao.
Qin Hao nodded, ”Rest assured, Old Li. I will try my best to protect them. But... you don't have to be there tomorrow.”
Li Zhanwu smiled, ”I must go. Remember, I am also a member of the Sky Group. I am always with you.”
Looking at Li Zhanwu’s resolute smile, Qin Hao stopped persuading him, “Well, be more careful. And I suggest you report to the superior to prepare for all emergencies, and clear up all the sites around the arena in case.”
Li Zhanwu nodded seriously, ”Fine, I will do this. Well, go back to rest. I am leaving.”
”Okay.”
Looking at Li Zhanwu's back, at this moment, Qin Hao realized that the blood of this middle-aged soldier did not completely cool down.
Now everyone had left, and Qin Hao glanced at the empty conference room, then stepped out and went straight to the back hill where Little Monster got promoted.
On the peak of the back hill, a person had already arrived. It was Shi Bingying.
She was simply a peripheral member of the Sky Group, so she did not have to attend their meetings. When she heard the wolf howling, she guessed that it might be Little Monster, so she came immediately. It was indeed the Little Monster.
By the time Qin Hao arrived, Little Monster had been comforted by Shi Bingying. It stopped howling and was circling around her, happily shaking its tail
.
Seeing Qin Hao arrived, Little Monster screamed and pounced onto him. Its tail swayed with more delight, like a home-bred cute dog.
”Ha, ha, ha...” Little Monster jumped at Qin Hao, exhaling hot breath and stretching its tone to lick Qin Hao's face. It used to show intimacy and express his gratitude to Qin Hao in this way.
Qin Hao smiled and pressed its head down. Touching its head and observed carefully, Qin Hao smiled with satisfaction.
”Fine, buddy, you are really promoted.”
Little Monster's fur was shinier, and its two corners were sharper. At the root of the corner there appeared the second zebra line. Qin Hao guessed it might be the symbol of the second-stage spirit beasts. He did not know well of the level of the beasts.
A second-stage spirit beast was not rare. There were many second-stage spirit beasts in the real Ancient Martial World, and in those ancient martial sects, most of their spirit beats were higher than the second stage. However, a second-stage earth spirit beast was absolutely rare, even in the real Ancient Martial World.
