Master of Voracious Beasts - Chapter 303
“How are you?”
Jomel asked while looking at his chessboard.
“Your ability is extremely strong, at most a chosen king is not as strong as mine. What is that ability?”
The old man asked while he is looking at the chessboard and curious what are they.
“My ability? It’s called pressure.”
Jomel said casually. Although he learned it all from Motus, he and Motus are one so knowing how and why it works is mastered instantly by Jomel.
“I know it’s shameless but I’m too old for that, So can you teach me?”
The old man Bo La asked without caring for his face. He is interested in learning that, the fact that he can attack people just by giving off his aura.
“Of course, once you beat me and her in chess. After all, not everything is for free.” Jomel said.
“Ha! Tell me the details, it seems the game is fun and easy.”
The old man is still shameless, after the beat down, he is still proud.
“Then listen…”
Jomel instructed and taught him eventually how the game chess is played. At first, Jomel thought the old man would have a hard time getting but he underestimated him.
They are not like him, a tamer. These old men are cultivating and solving cultivation problems and stuff, while he did not have to. This is something he didn’t have, a mindset of old cultivators.
“So it was that easy, huh. Let me try facing you two.”
The old man said after the little girl Lavender and Jomel is done. The little girl Lavender was thrashed by the old man, his tactics are great.
His opening is the so-called D4 opening…
In the chessboard game.
D4 is one of the best chess openings and is the preferred first move of many World Champions in Jomel’s past life, including Anatoly Karpov. Because D4 opens the way for the c1 bishop and the queen, although it’s better to develop the other pieces before bringing the queen out.
“Ha! This is easy. Why don’t you come next?”
The old man ignored the grumpy look of the little girl.
“Thrash that Old Bo La.” She said angrily but it sounds cute.
“Haha! Princess Lavender. I will thrash him instead.”
The old man confidently said as he is excited learning the powerful move pressure while playing this interesting chess.
Jomel sits on the opposite side of the old in the board. This time, Jomel is using his Ultimate Precognition, although it may not help much. It can enhance his moves.
“Hot damn!”
The old man said as he noticed that he is losing.
“Hmm.” Jomel is using the tactics from the old master of chess on the earth, that’s why every move of the old man was countered.
“This game is addicting.”
The old man admitted that interest him very much, he needed to calculate a lot of things on this game, and in one move, the enemy might overthrow his king. He never had this stimulus before.
About three days had passed and Jomel kept defeating the old man. However, the old man is keeping a hang of it and Jomel is losing his arsenal of tactics to this old man.
Their game becomes difficult and becoming difficult for Jomel. Because every game it takes longer to beat this senile old man. Elder Bo La is putting all his effort into the game.
All of the sudden.
“Anyway old man, aren’t you here for something?” Said while Elder Bo La is still thinking of what he’s gonna move next.
Absentmindedly, “Well… Yeah, it’s a trial for an outer disciple to enter inner disciple or core.” Suddenly, the eyes of the old man widened.
“It’s been three days… Oh no…” Suddenly the old expression changed. “Ah! Forget it, leave those motherf*ckers alone. Let’s just play chess.”
Jomel suddenly stood up and looked at the little girl on his shoulder, “Do you know where is the sect?”
The little girl Lavender pouted and nodded, “Uhhmmnn!”
“Then let’s go!” Jomel said as he began to walk.
The old man was shocked, he looked a Jomel and shouted, “Wait! You are interested?”
He thought he should’ve used this as an opportunity to bribe this powerful expert. Usually, a king like this shouldn’t be powerful. However, his pressure alone can dominate a lot of things, that’s why the old man desires it.
“Yes, it sounds great. And I’m curious about this Honey sect of ours.”
Jomel responded truthfully, to him this is like a dream, cultivators that he often dreamt of in the past and these events are one of them. So why not?
He didn’t need this old man for he had this lolita Lavender to point the direction of the sect, because finding it inside her territory won’t surely be a problem.
“Then let’s go there then, sigh, I was hoping to beat you in the next game, but I will prepare for it.”
Jomel nodded, then he continued walking silently. The old man Bo La suddenly took out something.
“Spatial ability?”
Jomel can feel an aura of psychic power opening a space out of nowhere.
“Yes, a space ring, you can have this as long as you teach me a pressure ability, how about it?”
Jomel was frozen when the old mentioned this.
A spacing ring?
Then he remembered when he was on a Bug tree, those beings can manipulate spatial powers making their human beings that can transcend through space and fight using it.
This is a Cultivation Bug World so space rings surely exist!
Seeing Jomel’s reaction, the old man celebrated on his mind but he didn’t show it to Jomel.
As long as you become an elder to the sect, It is natural for the sect to gift an elder as long as they reached a peak Core pollination, and now the man in front of him maybe a Core Pollination mid-stage, however, he is stronger than that.
Even an aseedant like him didn’t even have a match compared to this guy.
“Sure,” Jomel said…
He didn’t mind teaching him, he also wanted to find out what will be created if he ever taught his technique from the energy of this world.
