My starting summon is a small skeleton-Chapter 200 - 197 Little Goldfish Breakthrough
Inheritance Land, Trial Tower.
As the Dogman Priest’s head burst from a slap, the balance of the battle began to tilt towards Lu Wu.
The two Dogman Warriors, who were as aggressive as if they were injected with chicken blood, had their momentum plummet instantly.
Little Skeleton seized the opportunity, energy erupted once more, and straight away stabbed out with the newly acquired Skill "Thunder Spear".
"Thunder Spear" was a close-ranged, single-target Skill.
The Skill was designed for high burst damage, with highly condensed thunder energy and extreme speed and destructive power.
The Dogman Warrior that it targeted could only manage to lift its longsword before it could block, it was pierced through the skull by Little Skeleton’s spear and turned to light.
However, this gave the other Dogman Warrior a chance, who lunged at him with its longsword, slashing down at Little Skeleton’s head.
The head was Little Skeleton’s Weakness.
While other hits might not bother Little Skeleton much, a strike to the head could potentially be fatal.
Luckily, Little Skeleton was no ordinary Summoned Beast.
As the Dogman Warrior’s sword came slashing down, Pei Qi No. 1, riding the Iron Bone Wild Boar, charged over and unleashed the long-awaited advanced Skill "Heart Piercing Shot".
With the Skill from the Advanced Level, augmented by the Iron Bone Wild Boar’s charge, the two forces combined managed to impale the Dogman Warrior, breaking the encirclement around Little Skeleton.
Little Skeleton then took the opportunity, raising his hand and stabbing the spear into the Dogman Warrior’s head, taking him out.
Thus, of the wave of seven Summoned Beasts, four had perished, and the remaining three were all in pursuit of the little goldfish that killed the Dogman Priest with a tail swipe.
At this moment, Little Skeleton switched from close to long-range combat, utilizing the Dual-tasking Talent again, conjuring two Bone Spears to shoot at the Dogman Warriors.
This was also the first time Little Skeleton used Spell after reaching the Boss Level.
But the results were hardly satisfactory.
The Dogman Warrior that it targeted immediately turned its head, slashing the first Bone Spear out of the air. Although the second one followed closely, it was also blocked by the Dogman Warrior.
However, while it was blocking the Bone Spears, the little goldfish somehow got behind it. With another tail slap, it exploded the Dogman Warrior’s head.
The final two Dogman Warriors didn’t stand a chance and were easily taken down by the coalition of seven Summoned Beasts on Little Skeleton’s side.
As the last Dogman Warrior vanished into light, the reward phase arrived on schedule, with seven streams of light shining brightly.
As the light appeared, Lu Wu’s heart began to pound violently again.
He had just experienced this once, and now he felt more prepared, although such things seemed to have nothing to do with experience—it was all about luck.
About twenty minutes later.
The rewards ended, and so did the feedback on Lu Wu’s side.
The second wave of feedback made Lu Wu feel even stronger, and he vaguely sensed an extra surge of strength in his stamina.
Besides, Lu Wu opened his attribute panel to take a look.
He still hadn’t awakened the Summoner Talent, and the random Skill he received was somewhat amusing to him.
It was the little goldfish’s Master Level Skill "Slap Lu Wu".
"Seriously, this one?"
Well, as Skills go, it was quite powerful and formidable; it was just the name that bothered him.
But then Lu Wu thought, as long as he didn’t mention it, who would know his Skill was named "Slap Lu Wu"?
With this in mind, Lu Wu felt much better, and turned his attention to the little goldfish.

Description: Clearly, it has another cheat.
...
Lu Wu stared at the "Flood" Skill on the little goldfish’s attribute panel for a good while.
"Isn’t this cheat a bit too outrageous?"
Suddenly, Lu Wu felt that this Trial seemed to pose little challenge to him anymore.
In high spirits,
Lu Wu casually looked over the gains of the other Summoned Beasts.
Little Skeleton was still at Boss 1 Star, and its underling, the boar that had nearly been split in two, had recovered. All his underlings had leveled up by one, reaching the peak standard of Elite 3 Stars.
Even the silly one, Han, had leveled up two ranks to Elite 3 Stars.
"If nothing unexpected happens, one more wave and all of my Summoned Beasts will become Bosses!"
Just as Lu Wu said this, the eighth round of the trial began.
Just like before.
The Summoned Beasts in the eighth round were Boss 2 Stars, with eight of them, and just like the previous round, they were all Dogmen.
This time there were six Dogman Warriors and two Dogman Priests.
Their attributes seemed stronger than before, but facing this group, Lu Wu appeared even more relaxed.
Because he clearly knew that this round would be easier to resolve than the seventh.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the Trial Tower.
Kong Yi lay comfortably on a lounge chair, sipping a drink and watching Lu Wu’s situation while casually chatting with Lin Jianying, sentence by sentence.
"Don’t underestimate your childhood friend; he’s got something special. I thought he wouldn’t survive the Boss level,
that he’d need something to save his own life, but he got through it so easily and even added a Boss Level Summoned Beast to his command. Impressive!"
Lin Jianying ignored him, his entire being listless.
That made Kong Yi uncomfortable, offering consolation: "Don’t be like that. What’s the big deal about planning to kill someone? Why so down?
Young man, you shouldn’t have this kind of attitude toward life. You need to be brave and strong, or else you’ll inevitably collapse one day."
Just listen to that.

The words were inspiring, the tone gentle, like a life coach giving a lesson.
Unfortunately, this person wasn’t a life coach but a neurotic psychopath.
Seeing no change in Lin Jianying’s emotions, Kong Yi got up and whispered in his ear: "Think about your parents, think about Lu Wu who is about to lose Dudu, think about the Dudu you’re going to abuse, and then think about the endless dark life you’re about to face?
Who brought all this to you? Don’t you want to take revenge on me? Don’t you want to kill me?
Do you want to watch the person who manipulatively controls your life live well?
I think you definitely don’t want that, right?
So, pull yourself together, live on with boundless hatred for me, grow at all costs.
Until one day you are strong enough, strong enough to stand before me."
Saying this, Kong Yi paused and then smiled, "And then, let me slap you to death!"
"I’m going to kill you!"
Lin Jianying’s eyes were bloodshot, his expression ferocious.
"I swear, if you don’t kill me now, I will definitely kill you!
Even if I can’t kill you myself, I’ll tell Lu Wu exactly what happened here. When Lu Wu finds out who harmed Dudu, he will kill you too!"
Next to him, the goblin was even burning with blood-colored flames.
Unfortunately, in front of Kong Yi, they were like two adorable little white rabbits.
The more they behaved like this, the happier Kong Yi became.
"Very good, that’s the spirit, it’s this kind of attitude that makes you likable.
I really like your murderous intent, but I don’t like what you’re saying.
Relying on Lu Wu? Why rely on him? Can’t you do it yourself?
Do you think you’re a failure, that you don’t have the potential to kill me?
It seems I need to give you a little confidence to kill me."
Kong Yi said this and took out two drops of blood red as gems from his bosom and effortlessly pierced Lin Jianying and the goblin’s chests with his finger. He then injected the two drops directly into their hearts.
With this infusion, Lin Jianying and the goblin were enveloped by a blood-colored light, their hearts beginning to beat violently.
Their aura also changed with the beating of their hearts.
In less than a few minutes, the goblin broke through from Elite 3 Stars to Boss 1 Star, and Lin Jianying became Professional Level.
But now, their eyes were stained red with blood, looking terribly scary.
Lin Jianying could feel his heart beating violently, his head dizzy.
A nameless rage was burning in his heart.
He felt he couldn’t control his own thoughts, filled with the desire for havoc and destruction.
This frightened Lin Jianying immensely.
"What... what did you do to me..."
"What did I do? Hmm, I unleashed the beast within you, gave you the capital to become stronger, and incidentally prepared for what’s to come.
After all, misunderstandings make for more dramatic storylines, and drama makes for captivating stories, don’t they?
So I need to eliminate any chance you have to clarify misunderstandings.
Enjoy the feeling of the beast’s roar; I should be coming over to watch the play.
Eight Boss 2 Stars versus two Boss 1 Stars, plus five Elite 3 Star Summoned Beasts, this should be an exciting battle, a battle I couldn’t possibly..."
As he was saying this, Kong Yi was stunned, looking at Lu Wu’s situation in disbelief: "What’s going on? The battle is over?
They won? How is that possible?
How much time has passed? Did Lu Wu use something to save his life?"
Kong Yi was bewildered, and on Lu Wu’s side, all of the Summoned Beasts were enveloped in a golden light.
Lu Wu’s heart beat violently again as the third feedback from becoming a Boss began, and this time, he had a slightly different feeling...
