70: Chapter 70 You dare to play me!

This was certainly not good news.

"Everyone, change formation and prepare for defense!" Wu Hang shouted.

"Can you hold out?" Chu Li looked at the man not far away; he was their Niliu Academy's Department of Physical Taoism teacher, and his ability was the B-grade Diamond Body.

"I'm fine." Shangguan Xu worked with a group of fellow ice-type Ability Users to seal off all directions, restricting the opponent's range of movement.

"I'm the fastest, I'll go stop him first," Chu Li said, her body instantly erupting in flames.

In this state, the explosion of the flames after the initial burst acted as a driving force, greatly enhancing her speed and flexibility.

Although her ultimate speed still wasn't as fast as elemental types like wind, lightning, or light, it was much stronger than others.

As Chu Li moved, the Support Class also capably applied a layer of buffs to her, making her faster and more ferocious.

"Explode!"

Chang Qinian and Chu Li attacked from different directions, creating a large-scale explosion and destruction.

Two office buildings were shattered, and in the end, they were burned until not even ashes remained by the residual high-temperature flames.

Chen Xing, wearing the Dragon Soul Armor, had avoided most of the damage, so he was unharmed and even appeared somewhat lazy.

"Don't run if you have the guts, let's have a fight!" Chu Li clenched her fists at him, her ruby-like eyes burning with a raging fire.

"I'm just waiting for reinforcements to arrive. Why should I play a two-on-one game with you?" Chen Xing smiled faintly.

"You..." Chu Li's heart sank, sensing that things were not good.

If the main force of Tianhe Academy arrived while two of them were being tied down, wouldn't they suffer a huge loss?

It would have been fine before—they might have thought Chen Xing was just bluffing—but just yesterday, Chen Xing had stolen a Challenge Beast from them.

As the saying goes, once bitten by a snake, one is afraid of a well rope for ten years. Precisely because they had been robbed by this man, they had to consider the situation carefully.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

On the field, Wu Hang, wearing battle armor and aided by ice-type crowd control, fought back and forth with the teacher from the Department of Physical Taoism without falling behind.

However, he was also holding back out of vigilance. If he wasn't careful and Su He suddenly arrived to steal the Challenge Beast, he would be the one to blame.

He chose to play it safe for now, slowly grinding down the opponent's condition before delivering a one-hit kill.

Chen Xing stood on a high-altitude bridge and slowly pointed a finger in his direction.

"Don't even think about it!"

Bang!

This time Chu Li had learned her lesson. She didn't even wait for Chen Xing to raise his hand; the moment she saw him turn his head, she rushed over and attacked immediately.

Chen Xing dodged, and the terrifying flames instantly destroyed the bridge. Iron fragments falling from the sky smashed the buildings on the ground.

Chu Li pursued relentlessly, not daring to give Chen Xing another chance to attack.

Boom!

Chu Li seized the opportunity as her intense flames transformed into a long spear. She cultivated Spear Intent, and she thrust it directly forward.

Bang!

Chen Xing clenched his fist and struck back. Light and intense fire clashed in the air, producing a violent collision.

Within moments, the clash ended with Chu Li being knocked back. She couldn't believe it—she had actually lost?

"His Fist Intent has increased!"

Outside the field, a group of old fogies saw the problem at a glance.

Yesterday, Chen Xing relied on brute force; during confrontations, he only had a small amount of Concept power to offset his opponent's attacks.

However, the moment he struck today, that powerful Fist Intent was on a completely different level compared to yesterday.

In that clash just now, at least half of the force had been neutralized by the Fist Intent.

In other words, Chen Xing had truly managed to achieve a Breakthrough in his comprehension in just one night!

Everyone was shocked. What kind of talent was this?

"Venerable Jianxing really has found a treasure!" someone outside remarked with emotion.

"My disciple is incompetent, please stop praising him!" Ye Jianxing waved his hand with a smile.

Hearing this, the old fogies who were just getting excited felt their faces darken instantly, and they swallowed their praises back down.

For some reason, they really wanted to beat Ye Jianxing up right now. That look on his face was just too punchable!

...

After fighting for a while, Chen Xing continued to harass them, occasionally putting pressure on everyone.

Over time, this led everyone to wonder: does this guy really have reinforcements?

"Prepare to finish this!"

After fighting for so long, with the help of Wu Hang, Shangguan Xu, and many team members, they finally managed to severely wound the Head of the Department of Physical Taoism.

At the same time, they were extra careful, constantly on guard against any potential enemies. If they got robbed even now, they wouldn't be able to hold their heads up for the rest of their lives.

"Use the Natal Treasure directly to catch them off guard so they can't steal it even if they want to!" Wu Hang whispered.

"Makes sense." Hearing this, Shangguan Xu pressed his palms together.

Bang!

The Natal Treasures appeared, and the two displayed different forms, their cultivation levels instantly rising to the Divine Ability Realm.

By this time, Chen Xing was already far from the battlefield. He was also preventing this kind of situation and had left himself a way out.

Boom!

Wu Hang and Shangguan Xu attacked together, unleashing a barrage of firepower on the Head of the Department of Physical Taoism and finally eliminating him.

"Contestant [Wu Hang], along with dozens of students from the same academy, has defeated Challenge Beast [Li Xiupeng]. All students of Niliu Academy receive three thousand points!"

"We got it!" The corners of Chu Li's mouth curled up.

"It's over? It's been less than ten minutes; that was still quite fast." Chen Xing narrowed his eyes slightly.

Dong!

Just as everyone from Niliu Academy was rejoicing, another announcement rang out from the sky.

"Contestant [Su He], along with dozens of students from the same academy, has defeated Challenge Beast [Mo Cheng]. All students of Tianhe Academy receive three thousand points!"

This announcement was like someone had pressed the mute button; the entire field went silent.

Seeing their shocked expressions, the corners of Chen Xing's mouth curled up slightly, and then he turned and ran.

At this point, even the densest person understood that Chen Xing had just been attracting their attention, forcing them to conserve their strength and stay ready for enemies who would never arrive.

And because they held back, combined with the fact that the Department of Physical Taoism head's ability was defensive and hard to kill, their progress had been significantly slowed.

During this time, Su He and Li Baxian had already led their people to another city and finally killed their opponent.

This time, Tianhe Academy didn't hold back; everyone went all out. Although they successfully killed the opponent, their consumption was also great, and they could no longer support a third battle; they had to rest.

"You with the surname Chen, you dare trick me!" Chu Li roared in anger.

"See you later. I'll treat you to a drink next time." Chen Xing looked back and smiled.

These words only made their blood pressure soar. Chu Li was so angry her face was contorted, and she wished she could just blow the whole place up.

"Damn it, we've all been played!" Wu Hang frowned.

"It really is a case of once bitten, twice shy. Sigh..." Shangguan Xu looked helpless.

If Chen Xing hadn't stolen a Challenge Beast from them before, they really wouldn't have been so cautious. But as it happened, they had been robbed once, so they had no choice but to be careful!

Wu Hang watched the distant speck of light and clenched his fists. "Fine, I'll give you this one. Chen Xing, was it? Don't let me catch you!"
