130: Chapter 130 Three Fifth-Order Grandmasters Gather in the Misty Swamp!
At this moment, at the entrance of the Mist Swamp.
The spatial barrier, originally sealed by dark green poisonous fog, suddenly began to vibrate violently.
"Sizzle, sizzle —"
A blinding white light forcibly tore through the poisonous fog, as if a pair of large hands were forcibly prying open a gap.
Immediately after, three figures stepped out from the spatial rift.
The old man leading them wore a black suit, his hair combed meticulously. Although his face was aged, his spine was as straight as a sword, and his entire body radiated a suffocating pressure.
It was none other than the Principal of Magic City Martial Arts University, Principal Pang Ban.
Following behind him, on his left and right, were two middle-aged men with equally terrifying auras.
The one on the left was burly, with two crackling purple lightning bolts winding around his wrists like swimming dragons, his eyes as sharp as a hawk's.
He was Commander Qiu Wanhe, the supreme commander who had been stationed at this dungeon base for years.
As a Tier 5 powerhouse dispatched by the military, he had been fighting against swamp exotic beasts for years, his iron-blooded murderous aura so intense that people dared not look him in the eye.
The one on the right carried a black greatsword as wide as a door panel on his back and wore specially made theater armor that was not only old but also stained with dried blood.
He was a top-tier Tier 5 Grandmaster whom Principal Pang Ban had pulled strings to urgently borrow from the neighboring theater.
This person was reticent, but his sword intent, heavy as a mountain, caused the surrounding flowing poisonous fog to automatically retreat just by him standing there.
Three Tier 5 Grandmasters had arrived together!
This luxurious lineup was enough to sweep through any small S-Rank Forbidden Zone!
"This smell..."
The moment Principal Pang Ban landed, his brows locked together tightly.
The air was filled with a nauseating, fishy sweetness. The swamp, which should have been vibrant with life, was now deathly silent, with dark green toxins drifting everywhere.
"This is not the original aura of the Mist Swamp."
Principal Pang Ban's face was so gloomy it could drip water:
"This is the domain of a high-tier poison-type Tier 5 Great Demon!"
"It seems... the situation inside is even worse than I imagined!"
The sword-carrying man behind him said in a deep voice: "Principal Pang Ban, this poison gas is strange; it can actually block my investigation, making it difficult to find the students' locations."
"Let's search separately. The formation I set up has encountered problems, I will go check that side first..."
Principal Pang Ban was just about to give the order.
Just then, a voice filled with grievance and anxiety suddenly came from the bushes nearby:
"Um... Principal?"
"Don't search anymore... I know where they are."
"Who's there!"
Principal Pang Ban and the two Grandmasters turned instantly, their energy locking onto the bushes, murderous intent surging.
The bushes rustled.
A boy wearing a ghillie suit, his face painted with camouflage, almost blending in with the environment, crawled out carefully with his hands raised.
It was the invisible man of Class F, Mo Wu.
Because his presence was so low, when the Poison Python locked down the whole area to catch people earlier, it had completely overlooked him.
He had originally wanted to run out to get reinforcements, but discovered the gate was gone, so he could only squat here feeding mosquitoes.
Principal Pang Ban looked at this student who had suddenly popped out, his eyes filled with vigilance and... confusion.
"Who are you?"
"Why are you here?"
Mo Wu was about to cry.
He tore off the hood of his ghillie suit, revealing his plain, average face, and saluted:
"Hello, Principal! Hello, leaders!"
"My name is Mo Wu! I am a sophomore in Class F of Magic City Martial Arts University!"
"I hid here to avoid capture while waiting for rescue!"
Principal Pang Ban was stunned for a moment, turned to look at the two Grandmasters behind him, then looked back at Mo Wu, his brow furrowed:
"Mo Wu?"
"Does Class F have a person like this?"
Mo Wu: "..."
That stings.
Old buddy.
"Principal... I've been enrolled for two years, and I even won the perfect attendance award..."
Mo Wu wept internally, but now was not the time to dwell on his lack of presence, so he quickly reported in a rapid-fire manner:
"Principal! Something terrible has happened!"
"Inside, there is a Tier 5 Great Demon called the Bone-Eroding Venomous Python! It has also teamed up with people from the Wusheng Divine Sect!"
"They injured Teacher Shen Qing! They also captured thousands of students! They said they were going to catch some fox, and they want to use the students as hostages to threaten you!"
"What!"
Upon hearing this, Principal Pang Ban was furious, his suit bulging from his internal energy:
"A snake-type Great Demon? I didn't expect such a creature to be hiding in the dungeon!"
"This is my dereliction of duty!"
"But for it to dare touch my students, it is truly courting death!"
"I know where that guy is, follow me!"
...
Meanwhile, outside Bai Lan's cabin.
The atmosphere of despair had reached its peak.
"Hehehe..."
Diamond Five clutched the arm that had previously been broken by Bai Lan, walking toward the unconscious Lu Xingye with a ferocious expression.
He looked at Teacher Shen Qing, who was heavily injured but still protecting the students behind her, his eyes filled with the thrill of revenge.
"Teacher Shen, Heroine Shen."
"Weren't you quite arrogant just now?"
"Weren't you chasing us two brothers alone with your blade?"
"Why are you lying on the ground now? Where is your blade? Where is your Blood Rainbow?"
Diamond Five spoke, extending his uninjured left hand and, like picking up a chick, lifted the unconscious Lu Xingye off the ground.
"This kid... seems to be a troublemaker too, right?"
Diamond Five sneered, his fingers locking onto Lu Xingye's throat, shaking him at Teacher Shen Qing:
"Teacher Shen, you must care a lot about your students, right?"
"Then I will let you watch with your own eyes..."
"How your most cherished students die one by one in front of you!"
"Crack, crack..."
Diamond Five's fingers began to tighten.
"No!!"
"Stop!!"
The surrounding students let out desperate cries.
Teacher Shen Qing sat on the ground, her hair disheveled, her mouth full of blood, but deep within her lowered eyes, there was not much panic.
On the contrary, inside her body, it was like a volcano about to erupt.
Previously, in front of Jiang You, she had recklessly gulped down over a dozen bottles of Tier 4 exotic beast essence blood. Although it almost killed her when she drank it, that massive energy had truly exploded within her body.
She had been enduring.
She had been using this violent energy to slowly wear down and breach the seal planted by the Poison Python.
Originally, she had been lying in wait, like a female leopard holding its breath after being injured, waiting for the moment the seal was completely broken to create an opportunity for the students to escape.
But now...
She looked at Lu Xingye's face, which had turned purple-red from suffocation, watched his limbs hang limply, and looked at Diamond Five's nauseating, cruel smiling face.
Teacher Shen Qing's eyes changed.
"Hoo..."
She gently exhaled a breath of turbid air tainted with blood.
Teacher Shen Qing's Heart contracted violently, and the massive blood energy that had been accumulated for a long time, originally intended for breaking through her cultivation level, was no longer released gradually at this moment, but was actively detonated by her!
"Since you insist on seeking death..."
"Then I will fulfill your wish first!"
"Die for this lady... Die!!!!"
"Boom!"
Without any warning.
Teacher Shen Qing, who had been on the verge of death and appeared unable to even stand, suddenly had a visible circle of blood-colored air waves explode around her body!
The soil on the ground instantly shattered.
The next second, her figure disappeared into thin air!
That was not teleportation; that was an explosive movement that had reached the extreme!
Diamond Five's smile had not yet had time to fade when he felt a flash of red light before his eyes, and a scalp-numbing aura of death instantly enveloped him.
"What!"
Diamond Five was shocked, his instincts as a Peak Fourth-Order allowing him to want to withdraw his hand to defend.
But, it was too late!
Teacher Shen Qing in a fully explosive state, even with injuries on her body, was not something an ordinary Tier 4 Martial Artist could compare to!
"Puchi!!!"
A tooth-aching tearing sound suddenly rang out on the silent battlefield.
There was no blade light.
Teacher Shen Qing used her hand!
Her right hand turned into a hand-blade, wrapped in blood-colored Gang Qi that was so dense it was almost tangible, and with a resolute and tragic posture, she slashed through instantly!
"Aaaaaah!!!!"
Diamond Five let out a shrill, extreme scream.
His left arm that was holding Lu Xingye was actually severed at the root!
"Bang!"
Teacher Shen Qing grabbed the falling Lu Xingye, and using the momentum, did a backflip to jump back into the Class F camp, handing Lu Xingye to Xiang Batian behind her.
She stumbled upon landing, her figure swaying slightly.
"Puff—!!"
A mouthful of black-red blood sprayed from her mouth again.
That was the backlash from not completely clearing the snake venom while forcibly circulating her entire body's blood energy.
At this moment, although she had saved the person and crippled one of Diamond Five's hands, the energy she had struggled to accumulate was completely drained, and she had completely become a spent force.
But even so, she still straightened her spine, standing in front of all the students, her eyes like knives:
"Touch my students?"
"You are not worthy!"
