Luo San Pao let out a loud roar as it saw the surplus of Pink Maidens below, as if disdaining how weak they are.
The instant the Pink Maidens heard Luo San Pao’s overbearing roar, using their small consciousness they could comprehend they were punching an opponent way above their league.
The destructive and oppressive aura that Luo San Pao naturally exuded caused the Pink Maidens to lose their heads in fear as they scattered.
In the distance, Wulin could see the Pink Queen also fleeing at its fastest speed, quickly realising its mistake in picking a fight.
Although it was furious to lose its partner, its life was more important than revenge as it could always find another partner.
The fog wasn’t as dense as the area they were in before, so the rest could also see the sight of the Pink Queen retreating.
“Haha! They are all scared of Luo San Pao! That’s right! Run away like cowards!” Fatty yelled condescendingly.
Yu Xiao Gang also relaxed and allowed Luo San Pao to slow down, if he didn’t have to fight, he didn’t want to.
However, this Spirit Beast was suitable for Oscar, so Wulin said, “Keep following the Pink Queen. It is a suitable Spirit Beast for Oscar to absorb.”
“How old is it, Brother Wulin?” Oscar asked excitedly, he was going to be the second to get his fourth Spirit Ring.
“It is around 3,800-years-old.” He answered.
Oscar frowned, “Only 3,800? Isn’t that too young? Even though I am an Auxiliary type Spirit Master, my body is strong enough to absorb something over 4,500-years-old.”
Yu Xiao Gang shook his head as he understood Wulin’s meaning, “The age of a Spirit Beast is irrelevant to the suitability of a Spirit Ability.”
“Age does not mean it will be stronger than another. The Pink Queen’s characteristic is in its stimulating poison, if Oscar is to receive a Spirit Ability, it will also have this characteristic.”
“And since Oscar is a Food Type, he will not receive the poison part of Ability, but instead increasing the stimulation and duration.” Yu Xiao Gang explained.
“Teacher, you mean that Oscar will receive a Spirit Ability that will give us berserk?” Tang San asked as his eyes brightened.
“I believe so, it will be like that time against the Mad Battle Team, except it will not have such a strong backlash.” He nodded in confirmation.
Oscar was elated to hear that he would receive a Spirit Ability that will give the others a berserk effect.
He no longer cared about the age of the Spirit Beast and only wanted to quickly absorb it.
Yu Xiao Gang willed Luo San Pao to stop the Pink Queen. Luo San Pao sped up and easily caught up with the Pink Queen, landing directly in front of it.
The Pink Queen stopped in its tracks as it grovelled its head down in fear.
The younger hundred-year-old Pink Maidens all scattered from Luo San Pao, unlike the Pink Queen, they didn’t have high intelligence and only ran when they were fearful.
The group alighted from Luo San Pao and looked at the Pink Queen who didn’t dare to raise its head.
Yu Xiao Gang quickly unsummoned Luo San Pao since its presence was pressuring the Pink Queen to the point that it couldn’t move.
However, even with Luo San Pao gone, it didn’t seem to have any intention to fight back and continued to shiver in fear.
“What are we supposed to do with it? We are meant to fight it for our graduation test, but it doesn’t even dare to fight back.” Oscar said in confusion.
“It is up to you. This is your Spirit Ring, so you can either let it go or kill it. If it doesn’t resist, then your absorption process will be easy.” Yu Xiao Gang said.
Xiao Wu and Little Jing had a slightly ugly face as they watched the Pink Queen.
They already accepted that everyone must fight to become stronger, and they would also have to absorb Spirit Beasts in the future, but it doesn’t settle well with them if the Spirit Beast doesn’t even fight back.
Wulin noticed Little Jing’s sour face as he pulled her into him embrace, quietly stroking her tiny body to console her.
Tang San also noticed Xiao Wu’s change in emotion as he gently held her hand with a caring gaze.
Xiao Wu was a bit shocked at Tang San’s touch but didn’t resist it as she held his hand tighter, leaning closer to him.
She didn’t know that Tang San already knew of her secret as a Spirit Beast and felt guilty for hiding it from him even though he was caring for her so much.
Oscar thought about it and decided that this Spirit Beast was too valuable to just leave alone.
He walked towards the Pink Queen as he pulled out a Godly Zhuge Crossbow from his storage device.
“I am sorry for killing you, but your Spirit Ability is too valuable for me to miss. I will try to make this as painless as possible…” Oscar sighed as he placed his hand on the Pink Queen’s head.
The Pink Queen stopped shaking as its eyes focused on Oscar as he aimed the Godly Zhuge Crossbow at its skull.
Suddenly, the Pink Queen moved its pincers and swept them from behind Oscar, bringing them closer.
“Ah!” The girls cried out in fright and the teachers instantly released their Spirits and charged at the Pink Queen.
However, they were too late as it quickly reached Oscar. Surprisingly, the Pink Queen did not crush him, but brought him closer, forcing him to touch its skull.
Suddenly, the point of contact between Oscar and the Pink Queen began to glow brightly.
The teachers already stopped charging forward as they were astonished by this event, unable to comprehend what was happening.
However, Xiao Wu and Little Jing seemed to understand as their faces changed greatly.
Before Wulin was able to ask Little Jing about it, changes began happening to Oscar.
From the skull of the Pink Queen, a purple Spirit Ring floated out and into Oscar’s body in one smooth motion, without the slightest resistance.
Along with this Spirit Ring, the hook of the Pink Queen’s tail glowed in a bright pink colour.
The light travelled from the tip of the tail down into the Pink Queen’s body and into Oscar’s right hand that was in contact with the Pink Queen.
After these two processes happened, the Pink Queen took one last look at Oscar before closing its eyes as its muscles relaxed.
Oscar opened his eyes and looked at the dead Pink Queen with deep gratitude as he whispered, “Thank you…”
The others snapped out of their shock as they quickly circled around Oscar in worry and trepidation.
“Oscar, what happened to you just now? Are you alright?” Mu Bai asked hurriedly, taking Oscar’s shoulders into his hands.
“I am fine. The Pink Queen gave me its Spirit Ring on its own free will.” Oscar removed Mu Bai’s worries as he smiled.
The others also let out a sigh of relief as the event was too unexpected.
“Everyone, I am sorry, but I would like to bury the Pink Queen as a way of gratitude. Could you please wait a while?” Oscar asked.
Flander looked at the others and saw no rejection, so he nodded his head, “We have plenty of time in the day. You do what you must.”
“We will help you.” Fatty immediately tried to give his assistance but was stopped by Oscar.
“No, allow me to do this on my own. The Pink Queen gave me this much, so I should at least give in this much effort to show my sincerity.” He said.
“Alright, at least use this to dig the hole.” Wulin pulled a shovel he created from the Immortal Realm and handed it to Oscar.
“We will just wander around the area, so take your time.” He added.
Oscar nodded his head as he gratefully took the shovel, “Thank you, Brother Wulin.”
Oscar immediately got to work and began shovelling the ground. With his body, this kind of work would not tire him immensely, but it is a tedious job.
With the size of the Pink Queen, it would take Oscar at least a few hours to dig the hole and refill it, so the group had plenty of time to waste.
Luckily, the head of the shovel was as sharp as a knife, so it could dig through dirt like butter, allowing the process to go faster, otherwise it would take at least half a day.
The four teachers set up a temporary camp near Oscar as they sat down and relaxed, keeping an eye on him.
The younger group scoped the surrounding area with Wulin as their guardian.
The visibility was still quite low, so they stayed in formation as they moved.
“I can’t believe Oscar was so lucky, to have the Pink Queen willingly give its Spirit Ring to him!” Fatty spoke enviously.
“If Teacher’s hypothesis is correct, then it is not just the Spirit Ring that Oscar received, but a Spirit Bone as well.” Tang San spoke slowly.
“A Spirit Bone as well? What do you mean, Third Brother?” Mu Bai was shocked and curious, seeking Tang San to answer further.
“As you guys noticed before, Oscar absorbed the Spirit Ring almost instantaneously.” Tang San pointed out.
“Teacher hypothesised that a Spirit Ring can be easier or harder to absorb depending on the will of the Spirit Beast.”
“If it holds a strong hatred for you, it will be difficult to absorb. On the other hand, if it gives it willingly, it will be significantly easier.”
“These strong emotions also link to the production of the Spirit Bone. A strong hatred can increase the chances to receive a Spirit Bone, but Teacher believes that a willing Spirit Beast will have 100% chance to produce a Spirit Bone.”
“This is my first time seeing this, but I believe the Pink Queen willingly gave its Spirit Ring upon feeling Oscars sincerity.” Tang San finished.
The others listened to Tang San, deeply interested in this subject as they also wished for such an encounter.
“Ah! Hubby, at that time when we received our Third Spirit Rings…?” Feng Feng recalled something as she turned to Wulin.
Little Yue also remembered that event as Tang San’s words replayed in her mind. She became shocked because Wulin’s actions at that time mirrored Yu Xiao Gang’s hypothesis.
Wulin nodded his head, “To increase your chances of receiving such a suitable Spirit Bone, I decided to make them hate us as much as possible.”
“It would have been impossible to get them to willingly give up their lives.” He added.
That time suddenly made much more sense to them. They knew that Wulin only did that for their benefit and felt extremely grateful for it.
Although they don’t need to use the Spirit Bone often, it is extremely effective against mental attacks.
During their spars, Little Jing’s charm abilities are rendered near useless when faced with the two of them.
A little over three hours passed before Flander called out to them, signally Oscar’s completion of burying the Pink Queen.
In this time, the morning mist has dissipated, allowing the group to see clearly and become lax as they casually strolled through the Forest as if on a picnic.
They were met with only a couple weak Spirit Beasts that were scared off by Wulin’s Slaughter Domain.
“Let’s begin moving again after a small break.” Flander stated as he casually sat on a log.
The group gathered around Oscar who was slightly exhausted from the physical work.
“Little Oscar, what kind of Spirit Bone did you get? Quickly, come and show us!” Mu Bai was the first to ask.
Oscar tiredly smiled as he made some sausages to eat, “It is an offensive type Spirit Bone, very useful for an Auxiliary Spirit Master like myself.”
He lifted his right hand as it glowed pink. From his hand, an elegantly shaped pink dagger came out.
“This is the Pink Queen Stinger. Made from the hook of the Pink Queen, it is a sharp dagger laced with the poison of the Pink Queen.” Oscar admired the dagger in his hand.
This would give Oscar another source of offensive power, and it would be extremely useful as a hidden weapon.
After a short rest, the group packed up their equipment and returned to searching the forest.
