“Second, over the course of three hours, you are to practice using Frost Storm twelve times, averaging one use every fifteen minutes,”
“Meow… meow? (⊙ω⊙)” (Twelve times?)
Frost Storm is not Snow Trace; it consumes a significant amount of Xue Henqing’s energy. Under Qiuqiu’s current condition, being able to use it twice in succession would be quite impressive.
“I’m not asking you to use it twelve times in one go,” Lin Su squat down, patiently explaining, “After each use, you should retain half your strength so you won’t be exhausted. This is an ice and snow training ground, which can help you recover your strength faster. I’ve calculated it; fifteen minutes is just enough time for you to replenish your energy for one Frost Storm.”
“Meow!” (I see!)
“Beyond that, there is a third requirement,” Lin Su color of expectation deepened in his eyes, “While you’re recovering the energy spent on Frost Storm, try to learn a new skill: Snow Blow.”
Snow Blow is a common educational skill that can be learned by ice-attribute pets through practice, and it’s an important skill for all ice-attribute pets.
At Level I proficiency, it can just blow out a large swath of snowflakes, which isn’t very useful, but at Level II, it can transform the surrounding environment into a snowy one, thus allowing ice-attribute pets to combat more effortlessly in other environments.
This skill is known as the most suitable educational skill for Xue Henqing.
It uses power in a very similar way to Xue Henqing’s core skill, Frost Storm, hence Xue Henqing can learn and master this skill faster than other pets, and even improving proficiency in Frost Storm could also enhance the mastery of Snow Blow. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
Beyond that, Snow Blow and Snow Trace make a dream team.
Level II Snow Blow can produce snowflakes on any part of the body, and Level III Snow Trace lets Xue Henqing tread on snowflakes to stay aloft. The combination of the two skills grants Xue Henqing the ability to combat at high altitudes.
So while other skills can be temporarily set aside, mastering Snow Blow is a must for Qiuqiu.
Upon hearing this, Qiuqiu immediately raised a small paw.
“Meow? Meow! (⊙ω⊙ฅ)” (Snow Blow? I know!)
Back when it was in the breeding area, it had heard a caretaker say that Xue Henqing could fly once it mastered this skill.
Thinking that it could fly, Qiuqiu became excited at once.
“Meow, meow! ฅ(≧ω≦)ฅ” (Teach me quickly, I want to soar!)
“One thing at a time,” Lin Su smiled, not bothering to correct the little one’s misconception.
Giving it more motivation is beneficial.
“Qiuqiu, point in that direction and release Frost Storm!” He pointed to a large empty space nearby, giving instructions.
“Meow!” (Leave it to me!)
Qiuqiu opened its small mouth and then, with great effort, spat towards the open space in front of it, instantly creating a tornado-like miniature storm. Enveloped within the storm were innumerable frost flowers sweeping toward the distance. Even standing aside, not in the striking range of Frost Storm, Lin Su could feel the chills.
As the storm dissipated, a deep crater formed on the flat snowy ground within a five-meter radius, the surface of which was pitted with countless tiny, uneven holes.
This was merely the strike of a juvenile pet, yet it already had such impactful results.
This is Qiuqiu’s core skill: Frost Storm. It not only delivers an extremely cold ice attribute storm attack, capable of instantly freezing the opponent, but the frost flowers swept up in the storm can also simultaneously cleave through everything within its range without any dead angles.
After just one glance at Qiuqiu’s attack results, Lin Su’s gaze returned to Qiuqiu.
He slightly furrowed his eyebrows.
He had clearly seen that when emitting the Frost Storm, Qiuqiu’s body had tumbled backwards twice due to the recoil before stabilizing.
This was a sign of insufficient proficiency with Frost Storm, which, if occurred during combat, could easily be exploited by an opponent for an attack.
Therefore, Qiuqiu still needed to practice Frost Storm more diligently.
However, Lin Su didn’t point it out directly; training a pet also requires encouragement from the Beast Tamer.
Squatting down, he rubbed Qiuqiu’s head and with a smile on his face, said, “Great job, focus on recovering your strength now. Let’s start learning Snow Blow.”
“Meow!” (Taking off!)
