"Was that really necessary? What's going on?"
The four clueless buddies looked at one another, utterly baffled.
As for Suo Dun, they knew him all too well.
That guy never held back when beating them up. He always went all out! For starters, ever since he came to Super God Academy, he had taken over Ge Xiaolun's daily routine of getting blasted.
Just how hard had he hit him? They had only been apart for a short while, and he was already in this state?
"Get up, Suo Dun. What kind of behavior is that? Brother Lang is a good man." Zhao Xin helped the little crocodile up. Whenever he mentioned Ximen Lang, he gave him an enthusiastic thumbs-up.
Ximen Lang was a good man? Suo Dun thought Zhao Xin was just a fool!
Later, when he heard that Ximen Lang was going to give them some guidance, Suo Dun was so frightened that he began trembling.
"Don't worry, Suo Dun. I'm just going to give you some pointers. I'll be careful with my strength."
Suo Dun was almost in tears.
"Big Brother, you said it. You can't go all out."
Ximen Lang was at a loss for words. He turned to Zhao Xin and asked,
"Zhao Xin, do I look like a good man to you?"
"Absolutely!" Zhao Xin gave him another thumbs-up.
Meanwhile, far away in Celestial City, He Xi and Little Zhi Xin had also witnessed the scene through the Dark Plane Communication Ximen Lang had sent over.
He Xi tapped Little Zhi Xin on the forehead and said in exasperation,
"Look at him! He's become this stupid! Even a crocodile is smarter than him. What else do you have to say?"
Little Zhi Xin shrank her head.
"Brave..."
He Xi snapped,
"Brave my ass! He's just a reckless idiot!"
Seeing Little Zhi Xin cowering like a quail, He Xi sighed again and said earnestly,
"Little Zhi Xin, it's not that I insist on stopping you. If he had even the slightest bit of sense, things wouldn't have come to this. But he doesn't have a single brain cell!"
"Be good and listen to your master. I'll find you a top-tier male god in the universe later—one ten thousand times better than that scumbag!"
When Little Zhi Xin continued to say nothing, He Xi said irritably,
"I'll definitely settle accounts with that tomboy later! This is utterly ridiculous!"
Back on Ximen Lang's side, he had just calmed the little crocodile down when the Silly Goddess came over to join in the fun.
"Count me in."
Before Ximen Lang could say anything, Leng stepped forward first.
"What are you joining in for?"
"He said he was going to give Super God Academy some pointers. I'm also a member of Super God Academy, and I'm even the captain. You're not going to deny that, are you?"
That was a fair point. Ximen Lang had indeed been careless.
He simply had not expected the Silly Goddess to want to join them in this excitement either.
Leng was about to continue, but Ximen Lang interrupted her.
"One sheep is herded, and two sheep are herded all the same. Fine, I agree. But are you really willing to go with them? Let me make this clear: I won't hold back."
"Most of your genetic abilities are sealed. You have no way to hurt me. When the time comes, you'll only be able to take a beating."
Upon hearing this, Reina hesitated.
It was true. With only her miniature Solar Flare Bombardment ability remaining, even using an intermediate Solar Flare Bombardment was difficult.
She really did not have any good way to deal with Ximen Lang.
However, the moment she heard Ximen Lang compare her to a sheep, the Silly Goddess immediately became displeased.
"Why are you wasting words? If you want to fight, then fight! Do you think this goddess is afraid of you?"
Ximen Lang shrugged indifferently. He did not mind having another Silly Goddess on the other side.
In the face of absolute strength, numbers were nothing but numbers.
That included Reina!
A miniature solar flare? Was she trying to tickle Ximen Lang? An intermediate Solar Flare Bombardment? Its radiation was so intense, and this was Earth. Could she really use it as she pleased? So after Leng gave him a subtle meaningful glance, Ximen Lang immediately indicated that they should just watch.
With his approval, Reina immediately gathered the forces of Super God Academy, including Suo Dun, and hurriedly formulated a battle plan.
Ximen Lang, on the other hand, was much more relaxed. He chatted and laughed with Leng, not taking them seriously at all.
Elsewhere, Huang Lao and Du Kao hurried over after receiving the news. They were currently in the viewing area, waiting for the battle to begin.
"Little Du, can Ximen Lang really handle the entire Xiong Bing Lian by himself?" (The organization of Xiong Bing Lian had already been finalized.) In response to Huang Lao's question, Du Kao answered honestly,
"I only hope they won't lose too badly..."
"There are Suo Dun and Reina in there too. Could it be..."
"Huang Lao, Suo Dun was subdued by Ximen Lang with a single finger, while Reina doesn't possess any ability capable of threatening him. She can only serve as a living target..."
"Finished discussing?"
Seeing that they had finished deliberating, Ximen Lang walked straight into their encirclement, looking completely at ease.
"Damn! He's really arrogant!"
"Yeah. What else would I be?"
Reina could not tolerate it any longer and immediately shouted,
"Suo Dun!"
"Coming!"
He rushed straight toward Ximen Lang. Just as his axe was about to come down and it seemed he was about to hit him, Suo Dun suddenly stopped.
"Big Brother, you can't go all out!"
Ximen Lang was speechless. He kicked the Silly Goddess flying, then turned his gaze toward Reina.
But at that moment, a giant hand suddenly grew from beneath Ximen Lang's feet.
It was Cheng Yaowen. He had finally made his move.
Ximen Lang still wanted to play around a little longer, so he leaped into the air. He had only risen a few dozen meters when a streak of light shot toward him.
Zhao Xin held the newly acquired Dark Alloy Spear and thrust it viciously at Ximen Lang.
Ximen Lang slapped the spear aside, sending Zhao Xin flying along with it.
Zhao Xin was fast, but who was Ximen Lang? He was a Glint Fruit ability user! If Zhao Xin wanted to compete with him in speed, he was still far too inexperienced.
Although Ximen Lang had dealt with Zhao Xin, he had been too careless and had not even opened his Wings of Space-Time.
That led to one problem: his body inevitably fell into momentary stillness.
Bang! Miss Qi Lin raised her Sniper Rifle and fired decisively.
God-Slaying No. 1 Bullet! Ding~ Ximen Lang casually raised his hand and caught the God-Slaying No. 1 Bullet between two fingers...
It carried a hint of the Lingxi Finger technique.
"Damn! How are we supposed to fight this?!"
After only a few brief exchanges, the people from Super God Academy finally experienced Ximen Lang's strength firsthand.
It was utterly invincible strength. They had gone to such lengths, yet they had not even forced Ximen Lang to reveal the slightest bit of his power. How were they supposed to keep fighting? Ximen Lang finally turned his gaze toward Miss Qi Lin, who was still holding her Sniper Rifle.
"Ge Xiaolun, Liu Chuang, move up! Move up! Don't let him get near Qi Lin! Qiang Wei, take Qi Lin and run!"
"Yes!" *3 Not only Liu Chuang and Ge Xiaolun, but even Reina charged over, doing everything they could to block Ximen Lang's attack.
