One Against Six?

One Against Six?

Yin Hao did not rush to refute Ling Feng's provocative words. Instead, he slowly walked onto the field, looked at the group of "brats" from fifth and sixth grade opposite him, and spoke.

"Which one of you is Xiao Chenyu? I want to say something to him."

Before Xiao Chenyu outside the field could respond, Ling Feng on the field could no longer hold himself back. Pointing at Yin Hao, he said,

"Kid, you think you're worthy of looking for our boss? You—"

Before he could finish, Yin Hao raised a hand. A Blue Silver Grass wreathed in icy mist shot up from the ground, its sharp tip pressed against Ling Feng's throat. Though it did not pierce his flesh, Ling Feng still felt waves of stabbing pain.

Cold sweat instantly formed on Ling Feng's forehead. As the target, he could clearly sense what that Blue Silver Grass ice sword made him feel—a feeling close to death.

Yin Hao did not make things difficult for him. With another wave of his hand, the Blue Silver Grass vanished instantly. Then he chuckled and said,

"Interrupting someone while they're speaking isn't very polite. Don't do it again next time..."

And pointing that ice sword at my throat is polite?! Ling Feng screamed inwardly. Yet he ultimately lacked the courage to say it aloud. He could only nod frantically before fleeing back into the crowd.

Xiao Chenyu in the crowd was also startled by Yin Hao's move. As the son of Notting City's lord, he had been taught from childhood how to conduct himself around others. That was also why he had become the boss of the sixth graders.

He could bully Wang Sheng and the others because they had neither influence nor backing, and their talent was ordinary. There was no need to fear retaliation.

However, Yin Hao's display had proven his strength. Honestly, if possible, Xiao Chenyu did not want to offend Yin Hao.

But misfortune could not be avoided. After a brief hesitation, Xiao Chenyu stepped forward. Unlike Ling Feng's arrogance, despite being stronger, he instead seemed somewhat friendly.

"I wonder what this junior wants to say to me?"

Xiao Wu immediately laughed upon hearing that form of address. Before Yin Hao made a move, Xiao Chenyu had been as arrogant as could be, calling her "pet rabbit" over and over. The moment Yin Hao acted, he immediately changed how he addressed him, directly calling him junior...

"Boss Xiao, right? Originally, I thought that since we're fellow students at the same academy, it would be enough for us to live in peace..."

Xiao Chenyu's eyes lit up. Based on that single move Yin Hao had just shown, he did not want to fight him at all. But for the sake of his pride, he could not say so directly. If Yin Hao took the initiative to suggest it, that would be perfect.

However, he was still disappointed.

Yin Hao continued,

"However, you first wanted to make my friend your pet, then injured my underling. As their boss, if I don't do anything about it... that doesn't seem very appropriate. How about this? Let's have a match, so we can avoid more students getting hurt."

Xiao Chenyu frowned. He did not want to fight, but he did not want to admit defeat either. Otherwise, how was Boss Xiao supposed to keep his standing?

As if seeing his predicament, Yin Hao said "considerately,"

"How about this? You can find a few helpers. It's fine if you all come at me together..."

Hearing Yin Hao's words, Xiao Chenyu's eyes lit up. As though afraid Yin Hao would regret it, he hurriedly agreed. What was wrong with ganging up on one person? It was foolish not to take an advantage when it was offered. Besides, Yin Hao had proposed it himself. What did it have to do with Xiao Chenyu?

He then called out to the crowd behind him.

"Ling Feng, Liu Long, Jiao Yan, Huo Jun, Qi Sheng, come over..."

Ling Feng had not wanted to go up. What had just happened had left a tremendous psychological shadow on him. But considering how many people they had on their side, he still gritted his teeth and walked forward.

The five of them stepped onto the field and stood in a row with Xiao Chenyu. Xiao Chenyu said in a low voice,

"Watch your footing. The moment you sense anything unusual, change positions immediately. Don't let that kid catch us off guard..."

Ling Feng and the other five nodded. They assumed their stances, summoned their martial souls, and prepared to begin.

Wang Sheng and the others behind Yin Hao wanted to go up and help, but Xiao Wu stopped them.

Wang Sheng looked at Xiao Wu in confusion.

"Xiao Wu-jie, why are you..."

Xiao Wu smiled and shook her head.

"You have to trust Hao Ge."

Wang Sheng nervously glanced at the field, then reluctantly nodded.

"Begin."

At Xiao Chenyu's command, the group of six instantly charged toward Yin Hao.

It had to be said that Xiao Chenyu's method was quite effective. After taking only a few steps, all six of them sensed something unusual beneath their feet. They rolled away from where they stood, narrowly avoiding one of Yin Hao's basic attacks.

Yin Hao was not in a hurry. He summoned the Blue Silver Emperor, and his first soul ring immediately lit up.

"First Soul Skill, Blue Silver Profound Ice Thorns."

Countless Blue Silver Grass Ice Spikes instantly grew around Yin Hao, then burst apart into innumerable Small Ice Thorns.

With a wave of Yin Hao's hand, countless Small Ice Thorns shot toward Xiao Chenyu and the other six.

The souls of Xiao Chenyu's group nearly fled their bodies. Aside from Xiao Chenyu, the other five were scared stupid, standing blankly where they were.

Xiao Chenyu reacted at once and shouted,

"Quick! Get over here! Let's huddle together! Each person blocks one round, and we'll get through it!"

His shout snapped the five out of their daze. They scrambled to Xiao Chenyu's side and followed his method. One person stood at the front to block the attack while the others stood behind him.

As soon as the first person blocked a strike, they immediately switched places, dividing the attacks evenly among all six and trying to minimize the damage each person took.

It really was effective. Of course, it also helped that Yin Hao had no intention of dealing a killing blow and had not used his full strength. Although Xiao Chenyu and the other five were all battered and bruised after that attack, none of them lost their ability to fight, and they were not seriously injured.

Seeing that they had endured it, smiles unconsciously appeared on Ling Feng and the others' faces.

Just then, a sudden change occurred. Several Blue Silver Grass ice swords burst from beneath their feet. Xiao Chenyu reacted quickly and rolled away, but his clothes were still sliced apart by the ice swords. The other five, however, were not so lucky.

"Ah!"

Almost at the same time, all five let out cries. The sound was heartbreaking to hear.

The five of them felt an intense pain shoot up from their rear ends, so sharp that it seemed to pierce straight through their skulls.

In an instant, all five lost their ability to fight. They could only clutch their backsides and roll about on the ground.

At any rate, they probably would not have to strain themselves when taking a dump in the future.

Wang Sheng and the others behind Yin Hao had not clearly seen everything that happened on the field. They only saw Yin Hao launch a skyful of ice thorns, Xiao Chenyu's group frantically defend themselves, and then, after blocking the attack, end up like this. They thought Yin Hao's First Soul Skill had defeated them!
