The reason why Plant Masters were considered to be the weakest among all professions was because of their weapons. Plant Masters' weapons were all Plant Masters. Although it can be said that mutated plants and natural energy were very powerful, one shouldn't forget that Soul Soldiers, Soul Beasts, and Craftsmen all have energy inside their bodies. And their energy was more aggressive than natural energy. Therefore, when Plant Masters use their weapons to fight against other professions, they would often suffer losses. Most of the time, their weapons would be destroyed by other professions.
It was also because of this reason that most of the plant masters' weapons were vine-type weapons. Vine-type weapons could only be used as whips. People who used whips as weapons would rarely let their weapons clash head-on with the enemy's weapons. Plant masters could only use this method to make up for the shortcomings of their weapons.
Because of the shortcomings of Plant Masters, very few Plant Masters would use hard weapons. And Zhao Hai's Bullhead Drum happened to be a hard weapon. Jin Jun naturally wanted to use this method to destroy Zhao Hai's Bullhead Drum in one fell swoop.
However, he didn't expect Zhao Hai's Bullhead Drum to be so hard that it was able to block his attack. And while he was in a daze, Zhao Hai's attack had already arrived.
When two people fought, the most important thing was to be distracted. But Jin Jun was distracted by Zhao Hai's Bullhead Drum. This distraction was very fatal. Zhao Hai's Bullhead Drum swept over.
Jin Jun hurriedly blocked the Bullhead Drum. However, he still underestimated Zhao Hai's strength. Zhao Hai didn't even use the strength of the Yeti. The Bullhead Drum swept Jin Jun away, causing him to lose his sword.
Jin Jun's figure flew for more than ten meters before he fell to the ground. He lost!
Jin Jun was lying on the ground, his body seemed to have fallen apart. However, he was very clear that Zhao Hai had held back his strength. If Zhao Hai really attacked him with all his strength, then he might have been swept to death by Zhao Hai's Bullhead Drum. Zhao Hai held back his strength at the last moment. Although Jin Jun was swept away, he didn't suffer any substantial injuries.
Zhao Hai took back the Bullhead Drum and looked at Jin Jun who was lying on the ground. He didn't say anything. Jin Jun laid on the ground for a while before he slowly got up. Then he looked deeply at Zhao Hai before he cupped his fist and said, "I lost. Thank you Mister for being lenient. Goodbye." Then Jin Jun picked up his sword and turned around to leave.
Zhao Hai looked at Jin Jun's back and smiled faintly. He didn't stop Jin Jun. Although he appreciated Jin Jun's character, Zhao Hai liked it. However, he didn't want to make friends with Jin Jun.
Zhao Hai took back the Bullhead Drum and returned to the hotel. The people in the hotel looked at Zhao Hai with awe. Many of them were merchants, so they were quite knowledgeable. They could see that Jin Jun's strength wasn't bad. However, in front of Zhao Hai, he was defeated by Zhao Hai in one move. Just how strong was Zhao Hai? This was the reason why they were surprised.
Zhao Hai didn't pay attention to these people. After entering the hotel, Fat Cat and Zhou Qianqian quickly greeted him. Zhao Hai nodded to the two and said, "Let's go back to the room and tidy up. Then we'll go take a look at the Thunderwood." The two nodded and followed Zhao Hai back to the room. After tidying up, Fat Cat carried the wooden box and followed Zhao Hai outside.
Thunderwood Town had a lot of Thunderwood. Thunderwood was one of the main sources of income for the town's residents. Therefore, the people of the town attached great importance to Thunderwood. Not only would they cut down Thunderwood to sell, they would also plant Thunderwood and protect it.
However, all of the Thunderwood in Thunderwood Town wasn't in the town itself. Instead, it was in the mountains behind the town. This was because Thunderwood was too easy to be struck by lightning. In order to ensure the safety of the town's residents, the people of Thunderwood Town cut down all of the Thunderwood in the town and planted them in the mountains.
The growth rate of Thunderwood wasn't very fast. Generally, it would take five to ten years for it to mature. Therefore, after the people of the village cut down a piece of Thunderwood, they would immediately plant more. Moreover, they would have a plan to cut down and plant more Thunderwood.
When Zhao Hai's group of three walked towards the back of the town, they saw a lot of villagers sizing them up. However, when the villagers saw the grass-type soul above Zhao Hai's head, they didn't stop Zhao Hai.
Before long, Zhao Hai arrived at the back of the town. Upon arriving, Zhao Hai immediately discovered the difference in the Thunderwood here. Although the Thunderwood here didn't have any problems communicating with him, it was still too neat. It was obvious that someone had deliberately planted it. When Zhao Hai saw this, he couldn't help but shake his head. Then he sighed. He didn't like the Thunderwood here because it made it impossible for him to understand the origin of the Thunderwood.
However, Zhao Hai still slowly walked up the mountain. He wanted to see if there were any Thunderwood here. If there were, then he would carefully communicate with the Thunderwood.
While walking up the mountain, a voice was suddenly heard, "Where did this Plant Master friend come from?"
Zhao Hai looked towards the source of the voice. The person who spoke was a Soul Soldier. He was standing next to a Thunderwood. He looked to be around 40 years old and wore coarse clothing. If one didn't look at his soul, then one would think that he was just an ordinary farmer and not a Soul Soldier.
However, Zhao Hai didn't dare to underestimate this person. He could feel a kind of temperament from this person. It was a kind of tall and straight temperament. This person's strength was still there. Although he couldn't compare to Zhao Hai, if he went out to explore, then he would still be able to make a name for himself.
Zhao Hai quickly cupped his fist towards the Soul Soldier and said, "Mister, I came from Horizontal Blade City. I came here to train. Today, I passed by the Thunderwood Town and heard about the magical properties of the Thunderwood. Therefore, I came here to take a look. Sorry to disturb mister."
When the Soul Soldier heard Zhao Hai, he waved his hand and said, "Mister doesn't need to be polite. You didn't disturb me. I'm a person from the town. I'm here to guard the forest to prevent people from stealing Thunderwood. Mister is a Plant Master, so it's natural for you to come here and take a look. Mister, please come with me to rest." Then he made a gesture towards Zhao Hai.
Zhao Hai knew what the Soul Soldier meant. There was a small courtyard on the mountain, it seems like this was where the Soul Soldier lived. Zhao Hai already knew about this when he was at the foot of the mountain. He asked the Thunderwood, so it was impossible for the Thunderwood to not tell him about it.
Zhao Hai and the others followed the Soul Soldier as they slowly walked up the mountain. But as they walked, Zhao Hai suddenly felt a very special energy fluctuation coming from the courtyard. Ordinary people wouldn't be able to feel this energy fluctuation, but Zhao Hai could clearly feel it. This energy fluctuation seemed to be the energy fluctuation of a Magical Plant Master.
This made Zhao Hai curious about the courtyard. After he followed the Soul Soldier into the courtyard, he immediately sized it up.
The courtyard wasn't very big, it was about 100 square meters. It was really small. There were stone slabs in the courtyard as well as a stone table and stone stools. Besides these things, there was nothing else.
Naturally, Zhao Hai wasn't looking at these things, he was looking for the source of the energy fluctuation. It didn't take long before Zhao Hai knew where the energy fluctuation came from. Next to the stone table was a wooden stake. The wooden stake looked very big, it was as thick as two people. The stump wasn't very tall, it was only about half a meter high. However, its shape was very strange. For some unknown reason, the stump seemed to have been pressed down by someone. There was a circular shape on the stump, it looked like a small drum.
The energy that Zhao Hai felt came from the stump. However, this energy was very weak. It looked like it was about to become a Magical Plant, but it wasn't. It felt like it was just a step away from becoming a Magical Plant.
Zhao Hai looked at the stump and didn't look at it again. However, Zhao Hai made up his mind that if possible, he would take the stump to the Space.
The Soul Soldier politely invited Zhao Hai to sit. Zhao Hai didn't refuse and directly sat down. Fat Cat and Zhou Qianqian didn't sit, they stood on Zhao Hai's left and right. When the Soul Soldier saw Fat Cat and Zhou Qianqian, he immediately understood that they were Zhao Hai's servants.
This made the Soul Soldier curious. Zhao Hai was a Plant Master, yet he had two Soul Beasts as servants. This wasn't something that an ordinary Plant Master could do. On the other hand, Zhao Hai's clothes weren't very good, he didn't have the arrogant aura of someone from a Great Clan. So why did the two Soul Beasts become his servants?
Zhao Hai looked at the Soul Soldier and smiled faintly, "Where does mister come from? Why are you guarding this forest?"
When the Soul Soldier heard Zhao Hai's question, he quickly recovered and said, "Mister doesn't need to be so polite. You can just call me Lei Shen. I'm from Thunder Wood Town. My family members are all ordinary Soul Beasts. However, I don't know why I'm a Soul Soldier. Later on, I went out to study. After that, I returned to my hometown and have been guarding the Thunder Wood Forest."
When Zhao Hai heard this, he couldn't help but feel deep respect for the Soul Soldier. Zhao Hai cupped his fist towards Lei Shen and said, "So that's how it is. Mister being able to do this for your hometown is truly admirable."
Lei Shen smiled and said, "It's nothing. No matter what, this is my hometown. I like it very much. Being able to do something for my fellow villagers is always good. At that time, I was the only Soul Soldier in the town. The villagers had high hopes for me, so they treated me very well. Now that I have the ability, I naturally have to repay them."
When Zhao Hai heard Lei Shen, he laughed. Lei Shen stared blankly at Zhao Hai. He looked at Zhao Hai in confusion, not knowing what Zhao Hai was laughing about. Zhao Hai looked at Lei Shen and smiled faintly, "I didn't expect Mister Lei's experience to be so similar to mine. I also came from a small village at the foot of Jade Mountain. I'm also the only Plant Master in the village. The villagers treated me very well. Now that I have the ability to repay them, it's a pity that I can't be like Mister Lei, staying by the side of the villagers and doing things for them."
When Lei Shen heard Zhao Hai, he couldn't help but feel a sense of familiarity. Then he laughed and said, "So that's how it is. I didn't think that there would be such similarities between us. Good, very good." Lei Shen nodded and said, "Good.
Zhao Hai looked at Lei Shen, he stared for a moment before he said, "Mister Lei, do you have something to say? If there's anything you need, please don't hesitate to tell me. If I can help you, I'll definitely do so. "
When Lei Shen heard Zhao Hai, he couldn't help but stare. He didn't think that Zhao Hai would be this smart. Lei Shen didn't hold back and directly said, "Since Mister can see, then I'll be frank. I'll tell Mister the truth. Recently, our Thunderwood Town has encountered some problems. The hardness of the Thunderwood grown by the town is much worse than before. Therefore, I want to ask Mister Lei Shen's help to see if there's any way to restore the hardness of the Thunderwood back to its original state. If the Thunderwood can't be restored, then it would be a huge blow to our town."
"So that's how it is. Alright, I'll go with Mister Lei to take a look. I'll have to ask Mister Lei to lead the way." When Zhao Hai heard Lei Shen, he immediately agreed. He was looking for a way to get his hands on the wooden stake. Now that Lei Shen owes him a favor, after Zhao Hai helps him solve his problem, Lei Shen shouldn't object to him asking for the wooden stake. When Zhao Hai looked at the wooden stake, he saw that Lei Shen didn't seem to care much about it. It might just be used to store something. If Zhao Hai wants it, then Lei Shen should give it to him.
When Lei Shen heard Zhao Hai's agreement, he was very happy. He immediately stood up and thanked Zhao Hai before leading him out of the courtyard and into the Thunderwood Forest. The group of four arrived at a forest that wasn't very tall. Lei Shen pointed at the forest that looked about three years old and said, "Mister, please take a look at this forest. We've tested it, the Thunderwood in this forest is much softer compared to other forests of the same age. Mister, please take a look at it."
Zhao Hai nodded, then he immediately communicated with the Leylins in the forest. Actually, when Zhao Hai heard Lei Shen's words, he already guessed where the problem was. He only came here to confirm it.
After talking with the Thunderwood, Zhao Hai carefully looked at the soil in the forest. He even grabbed a handful of soil and placed it under his nose to smell it. Then he nodded and stood up.
Lei Shen was seriously looking at Zhao Hai. In fact, the problem with the forest had been discovered for almost a year. They had also found some plant masters to take a look at it, but none of them were able to find any problems. The Thunder Trees here were very lush, they didn't seem to be sick at all. This made the people in the Thunder Wood Formation worried. This was because Thunder Trees were the main source of income for their town. If they didn't have Thunder Trees, then their town's income would be greatly affected.
Now that he saw Zhao Hai nodding, Lei Shen's heart couldn't help but beat faster. There was a faint trace of excitement in his nervousness. He really hoped that Zhao Hai could cure the problem, but he was also afraid that he would be happy for nothing.
