32: Chapter 32 Inviting the Enemy into the Trap

"What do you mean it's too late?"

Chu Xiu's words caused Zhang Daxian to pull back his hand and scratch his head, looking completely bewildered.

However, Chu Xiu did not explain to him, instead looking behind Zhang Daxian.

From the direction behind Zhang Daxian, several powerful auras quickly appeared and rapidly approached.

Soon, seven figures running wildly appeared in Chu Xiu's field of vision. Furthermore, floating above the heads of these seven people were lines of information that only Chu Xiu could see.

[Half-Demon]

[Rank]: 5-Star Silver Grade

[Description]: A demonized person who has fused with the bloodline of the elite-quality fierce beast, 'Crimson Wild Boar'. They possess a half-demon body with defensive power comparable to that of the 'Crimson Wild Boar'.

...

"Half-demons? These fellows are all Silver Grade powerhouses, they must be people from the Heavenly Demon Society!"

"Judging by this look, they are coming for Zhang Daxian!"

Watching the seven people rush over with the words [Half-Demon] above their heads and their strength marked as 'Silver Grade', Chu Xiu's heart sank, and his expression turned solemn.

His strength could at most handle one or two Silver Grade powerhouses.

If all seven Silver Grade powerhouses of the Heavenly Demon Society rushed over, he wouldn't be able to hold them off.

However, soon, the solemnness on his face vanished, and a hint of a smile appeared at the corners of his mouth.

"You guys go back to the camp first. Later, we might not be able to look after the two of you!"

Hearing a soft shout, six figures suddenly darted out from the surrounding alleys behind Chu Xiu, all wearing the uniform of the City Defense Army. The previous words had indeed come from the officer at the lead.

"Kill!"

After dropping a sentence to Chu Xiu and Zhang Daxian, the leading officer cast a cold and sharp gaze at the opposite seven people whose expressions had changed noticeably, and gave a low shout.

The next moment, the beast power on the six of them erupted fiercely, and seven Silver Grade beasts were summoned out by them, charging forward to slaughter the seven people opposite them.

In contrast, the seven people on the opposite side did not summon any beasts. Instead, they each let out an angry roar, emitting beast-like howls from their mouths, their eyes turning crimson, and varying degrees of beastification appearing on their bodies as their auras suddenly surged significantly.

Boom!!!

The two sides collided instantly, and a life-or-death battle broke out in a split second.

Although the number of people on the City Defense Army side was inferior to the attackers, the leading officer summoned two Silver Grade beasts, fighting two opponents at once without falling behind at all.

"Dammit, how can there be so many Silver Grade Beastmasters here?"

"Just around Zhang Daxian alone, there are six Silver Grade Beastmasters. If you count the Silver Grade powerhouses secretly protecting the other two geniuses, that's already twenty people!"

"No, the City Defense Army has less than twenty Silver Grade Beastmasters; it's impossible for them to send out all of their Silver Grade Beastmasters. This actual combat training of Linjiang No. 1 High School isn't just protected by the mandatory mobilization of the City Defense Army!"

"I'm afraid people from the Qingyi Bureau are also involved this time!"

After the two sides exchanged blows, the seven beastified attackers looked at the six Silver Grade City Defense Army powerhouses blocking in front of Chu Xiu and Zhang Daxian, communicating rapidly.

Boom!!!

Just at this moment, from the combat area of the two Gold-tier beasts outside Qingshan Town, two more powerful auras erupted, which were startlingly powerful Gold-tier existences.

Such a huge commotion instantly attracted everyone's attention. Even the movements of the thirteen people fighting in front of Chu Xiu and the others paused slightly as they looked up towards the direction in the distance where the aura erupted.

They saw that in the night sky, another Gold-tier flying beast soared straight up, joining the Cyan-scaled Eagle to besiege another avian creature.

After this Gold-tier beast joined, the Cyan-scaled Eagle, which was originally evenly matched with its opponent, immediately gained the upper hand, and the two Gold-tier beasts firmly suppressed the other party.

"Dammit! Director Mu Jingfeng, aren't you still staying at the Qingyi Bureau? Why would you be here?!"

At the same time, a startled and angry exclamation suddenly came over, the voice filled with panic and terror.

However, this exclamation received no response at all. Instead, it was quickly drowned out by the increasingly fierce combat commotion that followed.

"That's Elder Chen's voice!"

"Director Mu Jingfeng, the director of the Qingyi Bureau, he is actually here too!"

"Oh no, this is a trap, we've been tricked!"

"Dammit, with the intelligence error being so huge, how on earth does Shadow Wolf do things?!"

At the same time, hearing this startled roar spreading across the night sky, the seven attackers targeting Zhang Daxian all trembled all over, their expressions horrified.

These people were members of the Heavenly Demon Society who had rushed out of Linjiang City not long ago to assassinate geniuses.

They all recognized the exclamation just now; it was precisely the Gold-tier powerhouse who led their group of thirty, the man they respectfully called Elder Chen.

Since Elder Chen had said so, Director Mu Jingfeng of the Qingyi Bureau must have already appeared.

The strength of Director Mu Jingfeng of the Qingyi Bureau was even stronger than Principal Han Xianming of No. 1 High School.

Elder Chen could block Principal Han Xianming, but he was no match for Director Mu Jingfeng.

Furthermore, now that two Gold-tier powerhouses were jointly besieging him, Elder Chen definitely wouldn't be able to hold out for long.

And now that Director Mu Jingfeng had come, quite a few powerhouses from the Qingyi Bureau must have arrived as well. At this moment, they finally understood why there were six Silver Grade powerhouses guarding Zhang Daxian's side.

This actual combat training of No. 1 High School was clearly a setup made jointly by No. 1 High School, the Qingyi Bureau, and the Linjiang City Defense Army.

"Let's go!"

Daring not to delay any longer, the seven beastified individuals instantly conceived the intention to retreat, no longer having any heart to continue the battle.

"Humph, you want to leave now? Too late!"

Seeing this, the leading City Defense Army officer curled the corners of his mouth upward, let out a cold snort, and hurriedly commanded his beast to charge toward the retreating seven powerhouses of the Heavenly Demon Society, tightly entangling them and preventing them from getting away easily.

They had already sent out a signal when they discovered these people from the Heavenly Demon Society, and believed that it wouldn't take long before the Silver Grade powerhouses among the nearby City Defense Army, Qingyi Bureau, and No. 1 High School teachers would rush over.

By then, these scum of the Heavenly Demon Society would undoubtedly die.

"Brother Chu, how about we leave first?"

Beside Chu Xiu, Zhang Daxian swallowed a mouthful of saliva as he looked at the battle not far ahead and said to Chu Xiu.

The impact brought by the battle of a dozen or so Silver Grade powerhouses right in front of him to a student with only Black Iron Tier strength was certainly not small.

No matter what, he had never expected that this actual combat training would be so dangerous, with even the Heavenly Demon Society killing their way over.

Through the scenes displayed before his eyes just now, he had also guessed that this time was not like usual, just an ordinary actual combat training.

This was a setup jointly made by the school, the City Defense Army, and the Qingyi Bureau, using students like them as bait to fish out this school of big fish from the Heavenly Demon Society.

He really disliked this feeling of being kept in the dark, and for some reason, watching the battle of a dozen-plus Silver Grade powerhouses always gave him a feeling of needles pricking his back, making him only want to return to the camp in the center of Qingshan Town as soon as possible.

"Mhm, let's go first."

Hearing this, Chu Xiu nodded, his gaze sweeping unnoticeably toward a dark corner, a flash of coldness flickering deep within his eyes.

Then his legs bent slightly, and with a strong leap, he jumped onto the back of the Huorong Hound.

"Huorong Hound, let's return to the camp!"

Seeing Chu Xiu come up, Zhang Daxian immediately commanded the Huorong Hound.

"Woof!"

Hearing this, the Huorong Hound let out a loud bark and instantly strode forward to sprint.

"Xiaodao, keep up!"

At the same time, Chu Xiu also gave a look to the Dark Blade Mantis. Understanding, the Dark Blade Mantis flapped its wings, soared straight up, and followed closely behind the Huorong Hound toward the camp direction together.

Just as Chu Xiu and Zhang Daxian left, in the dark spot that Chu Xiu's peripheral vision had just swept across, a pitch-black shadow also flashed accordingly, silently following closely behind.
