[Grass?]
The Grassman took the [Iron Bone] and looked at it, turning it left and right in its hands.
Obviously, it didn’t know how to use it either.
"From now on, just do it like this."
Li Pu stepped forward and held its hands with both of his.
After so squeezing and fiddling, it was done.
Now, that piece of [Iron Bone] was completely enveloped by the Grassman’s grass hands, almost invisible from the outside.
Iron hidden in grass.
The Grassman’s grass fist, in fact, was sowhat affected by its soft constitution, which sotis made its power insufficient.
But now, this problem was perfectly solved.
Unlike his own surface [Hardening], the Grassman was hardened internally.
Moreover, this move of hiding iron in grass was advantageous due to its concealnt and surprise factor.
The opponent would never expect that the seemingly soft grass fist swinging towards them actually contained a hard and uneven piece of iron inside.
When not in use, it could be absorbed into the body.
During combat, there was no need to worry about losing it due to intense movents.
Because the bound [Enchanted Equipnt] has a self-recovery function, it could automatically return if it gets too far from the owner.
Ordinarily, a summoned beast could embed up to two [Enchanted Equipnt] at a ti.
Now the Grassman had [Wisdom Root] [Iron Bone], making a perfect match.
"I’m so clever."
At this mont, Li Pu felt a bit smug.
He thought he had found the most correct way to use the [Iron Bone].
But actually, this [Enchanted Equipnt] should have been a defensive tool.
This type of iron bone indeed had similarities to [Hardening], used by so monsters to enhance their resistance.
However, under Li Pu, it beca a sneaky weapon.
But this can’t entirely be blad on him; other monsters with similar iron bones don’t necessarily have the sa soft constitution as the Grassman.
Or rather, a soft constitution like the Grassman is indeed rare.
"Co, try a punch."
Taking advantage of the temporary retreat of the aphids, Li Pu pointed at a large stone wall.
[Grass!]
The Grassman responded and stepped quickly up to the stone wall.
[Ssss~ Oooooh~]
Then, its movents slowed down completely.
"..."
Li Pu hadn’t expected it to use [Snail Grass] again.
But he didn’t stop it, as it was a chance to see how powerful the Grassman can be when equipped with the [Iron Bone].
So he watched, eyes wide open, as the grass fist wrapped around [Iron Bone] slowly approached the stone wall, and then...
Bang!
With a loud bang, the surface of the stone wall suddenly cracked open.
Crackle...!
Spiderweb-like cracks spread up to two or three ters from the point of contact before stopping.
"Such power, that’s impressive."
Li Pu couldn’t help but marvel at the surface of the wall, which seed shattered.
[Grass! Caocao!]
The Grassman turned back, taking out the [Iron Bone] to show Li Pu.
Grassman: Summoner, this stone is hard!
Grassman: Even after I used all my strength, it remained undamaged!
It seed the A-level [Iron Bone] appeared ineffective, but its main advantage was its sturdiness.
Didn’t you see a single punch from the Grassman caused the stone wall to crack?
Li Pu took the black, iron stone, but after looking for a long ti, found no sign of fracture, damage, or even a scratch on it.
It seed that A-grade hardness was indeed incomparable.
Rumble...
However, just as he was about to say sothing, he suddenly felt a tremor underfoot.
Looking again at the stone wall in front, it was already trembling slightly.
A lot of debris and dust were falling from the cracks that the Grassman had caused earlier.
"Sothing’s not right, let’s retreat quickly."
Recalling Li Fan’s warning of a possible formidable beast behind the aphids, Li Pu hastily pulled the Grassman to leave.
Did the Grassman’s punch inadvertently provoke sothing?
...
When returning to school, it was already completely daylight.
Li Pu took a quick rest, sleeping until just before dinnerti in the afternoon.
When his hungry stomach awoke him, he saw a al in a thermos bowl on his desk.
"Seems that pampering this little brother didn’t go to waste."
Although the dorm was empty, he knew it must have been the little treant that had prepared the al for him.
He had no idea what the little guy was up to lately; he never saw its shadow whenever he returned to the dorm, yet the als were always prepared on ti.
Could it have gone to class?
But he didn’t have the ti to think carefully about it now.
He hurriedly ate and washed up before heading to the training field.
The ti he had arranged online with that senior Cai was approaching.
...
Upon arriving at the designated training field, Li Pu saw a tall, slender senior already waiting there.
"Li student, right?"
"Hello, I’m Cai Yan."
Cai Yan extended his hand to Li Pu with a friendly smile.
This junior was hard to reach via phone or watch; it took so effort to get his forum ID.
"Hello, senior."
Li Pu sincerely shook his hand.
After all, this was a big custor, offering twice the market price for training.
"Let introduce my summoning beasts first, shall I?"
As Cai Yan spoke, he opened his storage space.
[Buzz Buzz!]
As soon as the space portal opened, a graceful figure flew out.
[Grass!]
Grassman: Summoner, look, it’s an insect girl!
"Oh?"
Alerted by the Grassman, Li Pu looked closely.
This summoning beast was quite small, about half the size of an adult.
In appearance, though, it looked very much like a human, simply a very beautiful young woman.
The most distinct difference was the antennae on her forehead, the pairs of beating insect wings on her back, and a small insect abdon at her lower back.
From its pattern, it seed to be a bee girl.
"Bee Bee, co say hello."
Cai Yan waved at the bee girl, fluttering above his head.
[Buzz Buzz!]
The bee girl, unaware of what lay ahead, descended and hovered around the Grassman, seemingly interested.
After all, bee girls loved nectar, which was produced by plants.
[Buzz Buzz!]
However, after circling and realizing no flowers blood on the Grassman, she turned away disappointedly.
"Bee Bee is my first summoning beast, currently 1st stage level 12."
"Wind Pursuit type, 5 Wind, 3 Gold, 2 Wood."
After introducing the bee girl briefly, Cai Yan released his second summoning beast.
"This is my second summoning beast, 0 stage level 10."
"Wise Wisdom type, 5 Water, 5 Wood."
"The species is Honey Flower."
As he spoke, a long, sleek leg stepped out.
"..."
When Li Pu saw the second summoning beast, his expression changed slightly.
This senior... sothing’s off!
