Chapter 106 The Battle with the Spearow

杰尼龟

Attribute: Water

Special ability: Torrent (Water-type moves become more powerful when HP is low)

Certification: Green

Strength: Average

Skills: Tackle, tail wag, water gun, retract into shell, water jet.

Evaluation: A mediocre water turtle. With effort, it could become one in a million. Without effort, it will only become turtle jelly.

Xuan Mingtian was surprised to find out so much after checking the comments about Squirtle; he almost burst out laughing. He hadn't expected the data panel to become so humorous, even including the nickname "Guilinggao" (a type of herbal jelly).

Bai Wu also tried his best to calm himself down. He didn't want Xuan Mingtian to look down on him because of his cowardice.

Then, mustering his courage, he shouted, "Squirtle, wag your tail and use Water Gun!"

"Jenny~Jenny"

Upon receiving the command, Squirtle struck a cute pose, turning its back to Spearow and wagging its tail.

Even the hot-tempered Squirtle couldn't resist its adorable appearance. But the next moment, Squirtle spat out a jet of water.

"boom"

A loud crash rang out, and the Fiery Sparrow was shot backward and flew away.

"Fierce~Fierce Sparrow~Fierce"

Before long, Spearow, dragging its injured body, regained consciousness and began to yell wildly at Squirtle, as if it had encountered a heartless man.

Then, turning from grief to anger, Spearow calmly activated its Cry skill, followed by its Peck skill, and quickly charged towards Squirtle.

Seeing this, Bai Wu gave the order again: "Squirtle, grab a handful of soil and then retract into your shell."

Upon hearing this, it grabbed two handfuls of soil with both hands, then shrank its body and became a turtle in its shell.

It happened so fast. As soon as Squirtle finished retracting its shell, Spearow had already pounced on it.

"boom"

A crisp sound rang out all around as the Fiery Sparrow's peck skill struck the hard shell squarely, but the attack had no effect.

"Squirtle, now's your chance! Sprinkle dirt into its eyes, then use Tackle!" Bai Wu seized the opportunity and quickly gave it the command.

At this moment, Squirtle, which was inside its shell, quickly stretched out its body and threw the dirt in its hands at the other's eyes.

"Sparrow~"

The unsuspecting finbird was perfectly struck by this sudden series of actions. After letting out a loud cry, the bird flew backward again, its cry seemingly saying: You have no sense of honor.

After a series of skill attacks, the Sparrow, though not yet transformed into a bird with round eyes, had already lost its fighting ability.

This demonstrates the difference between wild Pokémon and those that have undergone systematic training.

Wild Pokémon only expend physical and energy when hunting or fighting for territory. After all, this is related to their most basic condition: survival.

Therefore, most wild Pokémon will choose to rest or wait for a hunting opportunity when they can avoid expending physical strength and energy. It seems that this Spearow has listed everyone as its prey.

Trainers' Pokémon, on the other hand, don't have to worry about food or shelter, as they spend most of their time training. Therefore, they always go all out in every battle.

Seeing this, Xuan Mingtian nodded in satisfaction. If Bai Wu couldn't even defeat a single Fiery Sparrow, the former would definitely kick him back to the manor.

"Xuan, not bad, right?" Bai Wu said arrogantly, tilting his head back.

This left Xuan Mingtian, who had just been feeling a little satisfied, speechless. They were currently on Lie Que's territory; how could they get so cocky so quickly? Weren't they afraid of being called for help?

Just as these thoughts began to form, the Fiery Sparrow lying in the distance struggled to stand up and let out a sharp cry.

Then, the same calls continued to ring out and repeat. The calls became increasingly similar, and if you listened carefully, you could tell that there were dozens or even hundreds of them.

"Run! The peacock's calling companion is coming. Garlic, throw a Grassy Terrain to it."

Upon hearing the cry of the Fierce Sparrow, Xuan Mingtian immediately roused the crowd from their elation. At the same time, he also instructed Garlic to treat the Fierce Sparrow's injuries.

After a call, everyone immediately followed Xuan Mingtian and quickly traversed the forest path.

Fortunately, the finless ...

After traversing the forest for five minutes, they realized that the Fiery Sparrow was no longer following them, and the group breathed a sigh of relief.

"Potian, come back first. You can come out if there is any danger."

"Mantis ~ Mantis"

After responding with a sullen tone, Potian tapped the Poké Ball, which was instantly recalled. It was clear that it was unhappy because it hadn't had a battle.

It turns out that Xuan Mingtian released Potian after Lieque called for its companions. It was most likely because Lieque sensed that it was too powerful to fight, so it did not choose to pursue.

“You’re all like this. In the wild, you don’t live in human settlements. Didn’t we tell you to be vigilant when we came here? You’re already smug after defeating a weak Fiery Sparrow. What if a flock of Fiery Sparrows comes? Have you ever thought about that?”

Xuan Mingtian surveyed the surroundings and, seeing that it was temporarily safe, began to sternly reprimand everyone.

The five of them lowered their heads in shame at the incident, realizing their own mistakes.

At this moment, Xuan Mingtian continued, "Do you know why Viridian Forest is known as the place with the highest mortality rate? It's because many trainers ignore the racial issues within it. And like you, you become smug after just one small victory."

Everyone could only helplessly say in unison, "We understand, there won't be a next time."

They knew that Xuan Mingtian was doing this for their own good, and also to test their mentality. Putting everything else aside, a single detail can determine success or failure, and very few people can achieve this.

"Remember this, it's no joke. I don't want to see you with missing limbs later. Let's keep going."

After a warning from Xuan Mingtian, he continued leading the group through the dense jungle. They encountered many wild elves along the way, but most were timid and easily frightened, fleeing their reach as soon as they saw the group.

However, some of the bolder elves followed and observed the group closely, much like reconnaissance aircraft.

As they ventured deeper, Xuan Mingtian, relying on his past memories, led everyone to the edge of a lake.

Looking around, one could see all sorts of spirits gathered by the lake to drink. The lake itself was also teeming with leisurely water-type spirits; the scene was truly breathtaking.
