"Well done, Soaring Mantis. Follow up with your victory and defeat him with Lightning Flash and Swallow Return."
Seeing that the Soaring Mantis had suppressed Niduolan, the gloominess on Fujita Junior's face disappeared, and he shouted in delight.
Compared to the delighted Fujita Junior, Kaede Sato's expression remained calm, and no one could tell what was going on in his mind.
He's so careless. Seems like he has a good chance of winning this battle. Kaede Sato's lips curled up slightly as he thought to himself.
Although it was very small, Kaede Sato, who was very observant, still noticed that a tiny hole had appeared on the sickle in the Soaring Mantis' right hand. There was even a hint of purple on the hole, and the Soaring Mantis' right hand was trembling from time to time.
It was obvious that the Soaring Mantis' action of blocking Niduolan's Poison Strike with the sickle in his right hand seemed easy, but in reality, it was extremely difficult. Perhaps he didn't expect Niduolan's Poison Strike to be so powerful.
It was no wonder, though. The Poison Strike had 80 damage, and under the effect of Niduolan's Vitality, it was increased to 120 damage. In addition to the powerful impact from Niduolan's Double Kick, the damage had to be increased at least.
In fact, the Soaring Mantis was not wrong in thinking that Niduolan's level was much lower than his, so he thought that it would be more advantageous to fight him head-on. It was just that he didn't expect Niduolan's Poison Strike to be so powerful. He was too smart for his own good.
Niduolan's Poison Strike didn't seem to cause any damage to the Soaring Mantis, but the Soaring Mantis' right hand would probably be unable to move freely in the upcoming battle. Moreover, he didn't seem to realize that he had entered a poisoned state.
However, Niduolan wasn't in a good state right now. The Flying Mantis' Horizontal Slash had caused him a lot of damage, and he had also suffered some damage during the battle with Niduolino. He was panting heavily now, and the burning pain from the hideous scar on his body kept stimulating his nerves.
Since birth, Nidoran had never been hurt much. Today, the flying mantis had left a scar on his body that made him feel what real pain was.
At the same time, Niduolan also realized how difficult and arduous the battles Kaede Sato, BigMouth Bat, and Melaleuca went through in Changpan Forest every day. If it weren't for their constant protection, he probably wouldn't have survived that kind of environment at all.
Looking at the Flying Mantis that pounced at him ferociously and left an afterimage on the spot, Nitolan showed no fear in his eyes. His big ears twitched a few times, and a glint flashed in his eyes. Then, he suddenly exerted force with his right hind leg and shifted his body several meters to the left.
In the next moment, there was a clang.
Wrapped in a large amount of tiny white air currents, the flying mantis swooped down from the sky, its pair of sharp scythes slicing through the air currents, leaving two deep dents on the spot where Niduolan had been standing.
"Very good, Nitolan. The opponent is good at close combat. Try to keep a distance from him. Remember what you felt just now. Trust your hearing and survival instincts, and use Water Wave to counterattack."
Seeing that Nitolan had relied on his keen hearing to predict the flying mantis's attack position in advance and dodge its lightning-fast attack in time, Kaede Sato's eyes showed a hint of surprise, and he immediately commanded.
The flying mantis had just used Lightning Flash to increase its speed and then cast Swallow's Return. Its attack speed was so fast that Kaede Sato thought that Nitolan would definitely hit its target. After all, Swallow's Return was the best choice, and it was a sure-hit skill.
However, judging from the current situation, Kaede Sato also realized that there was no such thing as a sure-hit skill in a battle. It all depended on whether the little elf could react and dodge in time.
Upon hearing Kaede Sato's words, Nitolan, who had become abnormally quiet for some reason, simply closed his eyes and began to twitch his big ears, focusing all his attention to use his hearing to perceive his opponent's movements.
Subsequently, under everyone's surprised gazes, Nitolan relied on the short burst of two consecutive kicks and his telekinesis skill to slightly interfere with the flying mantis, miraculously dodging the flying mantis's next series of attacks.
Unfortunately, Nitolan had already done his best to avoid being attacked by the flying mantis, and there was no chance for him to counterattack at all.
If this went on, it was only a matter of time before he lost, because Nitolan was obviously starting to be unable to hold on due to his serious injuries.
"Hmph, don't let him escape. Flap your wings and use the sound of your wings to affect his hearing. Then, use Swallow's Return to finish him off."
Nitolan dodged the flying mantis's ferocious attacks one after another using his keen hearing. Fujita Onosu's face couldn't help but turn grim again, but with his rich combat experience, he quickly found a way to deal with it and quickly gave instructions to the flying mantis.
As Nitolan's trainer, Fujita Onosu was naturally aware of the physiological characteristics of a little elf like Nitolan, as well as his abnormally keen hearing. However, it was the first time he saw a Nitolan like Kaede Sato who could use his keen hearing to predict the future.
But it didn't matter. As long as he understood the principle behind his opponent's dodging ability, he would be able to think of a way to deal with it.
"Oh no, Nitolan is using two consecutive kicks and a poison strike to attack the flying mantis. Stop him."
Upon hearing Fujita Onosu's instructions to the flying mantis, Kaede Sato cursed inwardly and hurriedly gave instructions to Nitolan.
Unfortunately, there were two sides to every coin. Ni Duolan used his keen sense of hearing to perceive the Flying Mantis. Now that the Flying Mantis obeyed Fujita Onosu's command and used its wings to create high-frequency noise, Ni Duolan's keen sense of hearing had become his weakness.
As soon as the high-frequency noise created by the flying mantis appeared, Nitolan, who had been highly focused to raise his hearing ability to the maximum, immediately heard it and couldn't stand the noise.
Out of reflex, Niduolang immediately lowered his large ears to resist the noise. At the same time, due to the noise and the fact that Niduolang had closed his ears, he couldn't hear Kaede Sato's voice.
In the end, the flying mantis, who had a successful strategy, seized this great opportunity and directly used Swallow's Return to send Nitolan flying with an extremely powerful impact.
When Nitolan fell heavily to the ground, he had already fainted and lost the ability to fight.
"Nitolan has lost the ability to fight. The winner is the flying mantis."
Seeing this, the temporary referee also silently thought in his heart. After 10 seconds, seeing that Nitolan still couldn't stand up, he immediately announced the result of the battle.
"You've done very well, Nitolan. Your efforts won't go to waste. Leave the rest to your companions."
As soon as the result of the battle was announced, Kaede Sato immediately ran into the battlefield and carefully carried Nitolan. He comforted him with a distressed expression and used an intermediate elf healing potion on him before putting him away in a Pokeball.
"Hurry up and let your next elf fight. Don't waste time."
Fujita Onosu was very happy that the flying mantis had defeated Nitolan. His hatred of the rich and jealousy was greatly satisfied. Seeing that Kaede Sato was dragging his feet, he immediately said to Kaede Sato arrogantly.
"Sorry to have kept you waiting. Come out, Kati dog. Take care of your opponent. Don't let Nitolan's efforts go to waste."
Upon hearing this, Kaede Sato's eyes turned cold. Then, he quickly took out a Pokeball from his Pokeball and released the Kati dog inside.
A beam of light suddenly flew out of the Pokeball in Kaede Sato's hand. After the white light disappeared, a sturdy Kati dog with bright fur appeared on the battlefield.
"Poof ~" There was a sound.
In the next second, an orange flame suddenly erupted from the Kati dog's body and then enveloped him like a layer of protective film. At this moment, the Kati dog slowly opened his eyes that were also burning with fighting spirit.
For a moment, the temperature on the battlefield suddenly rose.
