The assassin assassinated, but was assassinated in return!
He suddenly kicked, sending two Dragon Balls flying directly into Xia Libai, Blade Saint's path.
Then, he entered stealth, disappearing from sight.
It was as if he had never appeared at all.
In reality, he had gradually approached the Seven Dragon Ball Tower and was now lurking in the shadows outside it, like a ghost waiting for an opportunity.
At this moment, Li Xunle stood before the Tower Door, hands in his pockets, gazing out at the wilderness beyond.
He knew that assassins might arrive nearby.
But with his strength, he didn't need to resort to schemes or tricks against anyone.
If a god blocks his way, he will kill the god; if a buddha blocks his way, he will kill the buddha.
Whoever comes, dies!
He only needed to be careful to avoid getting too injured.
In the sky, the numbers displayed: 150 / 5.
Five people!
Only five people remained.
Who would the remaining four be?
Li Xunle pulled his right hand from his pocket, propping his chin as he speculated.
He firmly believed that Qin Wangchuan, that Lao Yin Bi, was definitely still in it… and might even be nearby.
He casually pulled out a radiant staff from his backpack.
If one looked closely, they would see five faint golden stars shimmering on the staff, dazzling and brilliant.
Yet, he leaned on the staff as if it were a mere walking stick… not treating it as a valuable item at all.
Perhaps only he would treat a five-star staff like a wooden stick.
He muttered softly, "It seems it's about to end!"
Just then, a slender figure abruptly appeared not far in front of him.
He looked closely and realized it was… Tan Huan!
He had never expected that among the remaining five people, two would be from Fengchu Academy.
He couldn't help but sigh, "It seems assassins with stealth truly have incredibly strong survival abilities."
She quickly rushed towards Li Xunle, shouting, "Li Xunle, let me in!"
Li Xunle immediately nodded, then stepped aside to let her pass.
He trusted Tan Huan, so he wasn't worried.
Li Xunle couldn't help but say, "You really are something; your survival ability is so strong!"
Tan Huan giggled, "It's all thanks to my attributes being heavily allocated to [Constitution], but I know you're smarter than me; you just disdain to show it."
She walked into the Seven Dragon Ball Tower and was very surprised to see the four Dragon Balls already placed, "You placed 4 Dragon Balls by yourself?"
"Yes."
"It's a bit unexpected, but I'm already numb to it; there are too many surprises with you."
After looking around, Tan Huan's gaze turned to Li Xunle, "Li Xunle, what do we do next?"
"Just guard this door."
"But there are still 3 Dragon Balls missing…"
"Someone will definitely bring them."
Li Xunle seemed confident.
Immediately, his gaze swept across the wilderness, his pupils slightly contracting as he noticed a figure rapidly approaching.
He looked intently, rubbed his eyes, suspecting he had seen wrong.
It was actually—Tang Xiaosan!
The one who failed to show off in the Arena Instance!
Li Xunle didn't know that Tang Xiaosan had easily defeated Wang Teng.
So, he hadn't expected Tang Xiaosan to still be alive.
Unexpected!
Very unexpected!
This Tang Xiaosan must not be simple.
He mused, then spoke abruptly, "I didn't expect that of the remaining five, our academy would account for at least three!"
Tan Huan was very surprised to hear this and immediately walked to the entrance, looking at the approaching figure, "He… he seems to be that Tang Xiaosan?"
"Yes! It's him!"
…At this moment, outside the instance, everyone also began to anticipate, discussing excitedly:
"As long as Dragon Balls are placed into the Seven Dragon Ball Tower, the pace will quicken."
"It seems this competition will end within a day."
"There are only five people left now, with representatives from all three major academies. I wonder who will ultimately claim first place."
…
Beside them, Guan Shanyue felt a faint expectation in his heart, seeing that his academy held three of the remaining five spots.
Although Li Chen, Sword Saint and Lin Yu weren't there, there were Li Xunle, Tang Xiaosan, and Tan Huan.
The strength of these three should be quite good.
They might not necessarily fail to achieve ultimate victory.
His only concern now was the Shadow Saint Assassin—Qin Wangchuan.
Because the opponent's threat was too great.
Li Xunle and Tang Xiaosan were ranged professions, relatively vulnerable to assassins.
And while Tan Huan was an assassin, she was clearly no match for Qin Wangchuan in all aspects.
The Shadow Saint Assassin—Qin Wangchuan—had not yet used his ultimate moves, even now.
So he was somewhat worried.
Zhou Shanhai, Dean of Tenglong Academy, the head of Tenglong Academy, and Mei Xingchen, the head of Black White Academy, both grew tense.
Mei Xingchen appeared a bit more relaxed.
He understood Qin Wangchuan's strength and judgment very well, considering him a truly gifted assassin.
Coupled with the fact that he was a hidden profession—the Shadow Saint Assassin—
He firmly believed that if everyone in this instance were to die, Qin Wangchuan would absolutely be the last one standing.
And the last one standing would be the champion.
Thinking of this, his lips curved slightly.
He seemed confident of victory.
On the other side, Zhou Shanhai, Dean of Tenglong Academy, the head of Tenglong Academy, while confident in the Blade Saint Xia Libai, Blade Saint, lacked full assurance.
Because within the instance, there was the unpredictable Qin Wangchuan and the enigmatic Li Xunle.
And Li Xunle had two helpers.
He felt that the probability of Tenglong Academy winning the championship was not very high… At this moment, within the instance, Tang Xiaosan was about to greet Li Xunle.
But a sudden change occurred!
Not far from Tang Xiaosan, a massive blade shadow sliced through the sky, incredibly fierce.
With lightning speed, it slashed towards Tang Xiaosan… Tang Xiaosan noticed the movement, instinctively turned his head to look at the blade shadow, and his expression instantly changed.
If he took this blade, he would surely die on the spot!
He immediately rolled forward, dodging clumsily.
At the same time, Li Xunle immediately healed Tang Xiaosan.
He didn't notice that Tan Huan had already entered stealth, rushing at extreme speed towards the source of the blade shadow.
She was preparing to assassinate the opponent.
Now was the chance!
If she could seize the opportunity to assassinate the opponent, then there would only be one person left from the other academies.
Fengchu Academy would definitely secure first or second place.
Thinking of this, her heart pounded with excitement!
While in stealth, she pulled out a dagger that concealed its glow, quietly approaching the Blade Saint—Xia Libai, Blade Saint—not far away!
Tang Xiaosan barely dodged Xia Libai, Blade Saint's blade shadow, looking very disheveled.
Xia Libai, Blade Saint hadn't expected his opponent to even resort to rolling, showing a slight surprise.
"Blade Shadow Overlap!"
He lightly shouted, and then the long blade in his hand conjured countless blade shadows, which he then violently swung.
Hundreds of blade shadows slashed towards Tang Xiaosan.
Tang Xiaosan was utterly speechless.
Facing the dense blade shadows, he had nowhere left to dodge.
At this moment, he felt very bitter.
A blademaster, damn it, using ranged attacks; how was he supposed to resist?
If the opponent came closer, he could still use Mental Chains to control him… But clearly, the opponent seemed able to avoid getting close.
Unfair!
Completely unfair!
As he turned into a white light, this was his only thought!
Xia Libai, Blade Saint watched Tang Xiaosan turn into a white light, a slight smile playing on his lips as he looked at the sky.
150 / 4!
There were still three other people!
He was extremely vigilant.
Just then, a piercing whoosh suddenly sounded in his ear!
Immediately, his peripheral vision caught a glimpse of a faintly glowing dagger appearing at his side.
It was forcefully stabbing towards his back.
His expression changed, and he rolled forward without hesitation.
Even though there was a puddle of sewage in front of him… Crack!
His back was still grazed a little, but it was nothing serious.
He stood firm, looking at the spot where the attack came from, and saw a scene that surprised him.
The attacker was a beautiful girl.
And the girl was now visible, blood spilling from the corner of her mouth!
And in her back, a dagger was embedded…
