Two Girls in the Peak Match
In the dense forest, scattered sunlight filters through the leaves, casting dappled patterns on the ground covered with fallen leaves, giving the entire forest a slightly dreamlike appearance.
In the quiet forest, footsteps suddenly sounded, growing louder as they approached. A moment later, five figures slowly appeared.
Once the figures were fully revealed, their clothing varied, but they all wore an Emblem on their chests with a tower-like pattern, clearly indicating that they were all senior students.
"This year's freshmen are really good at hiding!"
One of the boys, dressed in coarse cloth, couldn't help but speak up.
"Heh, even if you hide, how long can you hide?"
The young man at the head of the group had a mocking smile on his lips. He had tried to hide before, but hadn't his Fire Energy still been stolen by others?
"Boss, there's movement ahead!"
Suddenly, one of the young men spoke up.
"Walk!"
The leading youth waved his hand, leading the group behind him...
Unbeknownst to them, a boy and a girl were suspended high above them, munching on fruit.
"Hehe, these five guys are in for a rough time!"
After Zi Yan finished eating a Spirit Fruit, a smile appeared on her face, but a sly glint flashed in her eyes.
She's always enjoyed watching a good show, so when she heard there was something exciting to see, she immediately came along.
When she and Lin Qing arrived, they saw that the five members of Xiao Yi Xian had parted ways because of the captain's position. The reason was simple: the other three wanted to avoid it, while Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin were preparing to take the initiative.
In fact, it wasn't just those three freshmen; all the other freshmen were the same. They all scattered and fled, not daring to challenge the seniors at all, and even forgot Hu Gan's original warning.
They even thought that if they ran in different directions, they would be smaller targets and less likely to be caught, and perhaps they could sneak across the forest.
As for students who dare to challenge the senior students, there are very few of them. Only geniuses like Liu Qing, Lin Xiuyao, and Xiao Yan dare to take the initiative.
Therefore, apart from those who were particularly close, everyone else chose to travel alone.
Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin expressed their understanding of the choices made by the other three teammates.
Teammates are only considered teammates if they are evenly matched; otherwise, they are just a burden. Moreover, they have no obligation to lead the new students to defeat the older ones.
They just wanted to squeeze some money out of the upperclassmen. Although most of the upperclassmen who came to participate in the competition were poor, every little bit helps! Besides, once the upperclassmen had snatched up the new students, they would have some left over.
After they've finished robbing the senior students, they can rob the Black and White Rakshasas Team and get the academy's reward. This way, the two of them can save up Fire Energy instead of making Lin Qing keep giving.
The commotion that the five senior students noticed was caused by Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin; they wanted to use the noise to lure some of the senior students into their trap.
If the senior students don't take the bait, the two of them will have no choice but to keep moving forward and eventually break through their ranks.
After all, the elders had said that as long as they could avoid or defeat the senior students and successfully reach the Inner Academy without being caught by them, they would receive a final reward. The sooner they arrived, the richer the reward would be.
Fortunately, these people have taken the bait, so now these five senior students are facing an encirclement by Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin.
"Keep your voice down, don't let Xiao Yixian and the other two hear you!"
Lin Qing reminded them that there were not only the two of them, the Dou Wang, in this jungle, but also several other Dou Wang elders and Elders Su and Lei.
They came to prevent powerful Magical Beast from entering the hunting arena.
In the past, a Tier 5 Magical Beast had sneaked into the hunting competition area and killed some students. After learning a bloody lesson, the academy now sends at least two Dou Emperors, four Dou Wang, and a number of Dou Ling to support each hunting competition.
This time, there are two Dou Zong, two Dou Emperors, five Dou Wang, and ten Dou Ling, all to prevent any unforeseen events from happening to these geniuses.
"Uh-huh!"
The two of them secretly followed them.
The forest was vast, but with the five Da Dou Shi traveling at full speed, they soon spotted Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin standing beside a pile of rubble.
"You've come!"
Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin were not surprised, and spoke calmly to the five people.
"Aren't you going to run?"
The senior student at the head of the class raised an eyebrow, somewhat puzzled, and asked, "Didn't the two girls come from the families of the Headmaster? Didn't the elders tell them the rules?"
"Why should we run? We're waiting for you! It's you who should be running!"
Xiao Yi Xian spoke slowly and deliberately, as if she were facing only a group of prey.
"Arrogant! You two should hand over your Crystal Card obediently, or you'll suffer a beating!"
The old man snorted coldly, somewhat displeased. If it weren't for the fact that Xiao Yi Xian and her companion were girls, and possibly even the daughters or granddaughters of elders, he would have already made a move. He hadn't expected them to be so arrogant.
"Since you're unwilling, then I'll take it myself!"
After saying that, Xiao Yi Xian disappeared from the spot like a ghost.
Qing Lin then summoned Xiao Shuang and three Tier 4 Serpentine Magical Beast that had been lying in ambush all around.
"Careful!"
The senior student in the lead then realized that one of the two girls in front of him was Dou Ling and the other was a Da Dou Shi, and there were also four Tier 4 Serpentine Magical Beast around them.
However, before he and his teammates could react, he felt a gust of wind rush towards his chest, followed by a sharp pain that spread from his chest.
Thud! Thud! Thud! Thud!
The other four sounds rang out almost simultaneously, and the five of them drifted away like kites without strings.
Bang! ×5
The five people crashed heavily onto the tree trunk, then fell to the ground.
"Pfft!" ×5
All five men coughed up blood and tried to get up from the ground, but they found that they didn't even have the strength to get up. They could only turn over so that their faces were facing up and wipe the blood from the corners of their mouths with their palms.
At this moment, their pale faces were filled with disbelief. They racked their brains but couldn't understand why such a monster would appear among the new students.
After defeating the five senior students, Xiao Yi Xian stepped forward with a smile. Looking at the five lying on the ground, she stretched out her hand and said with a grin, "Hand over the Fire Energy!"
Looking at that smiling, ethereal face, the five senior students felt a chill run down their spines. This guy was truly terrifying. They all swallowed hard, forcing a smile that looked more like a grimace. Although they were extremely unwilling, they dared not delay and, with bitter expressions, took out a Light Blue Crystal Card from their Storage Ring.
Xiao Yi Xian smiled and accepted the five light blue Fire Crystal Card. When her eyes fell on the red numbers "thirty," "twenty-seven," and so on on them, her smile deepened.
Xiao Yi Xian held one black card and one blue card, then rubbed them together heavily. In a flash of light, the number on the black card changed from five to twenty-eight, while the number on the light blue card shrank to seven.
Then a total of 120 Fire Energy arrived in her account, and Xiao Yi Xian's lips curled up slightly.
