Tomorrow is Mid-Autumn Festival. There might be an extra chapter, so please support Little Star. Thank you.

Even though they had only just joined Imperial City Academy, even though they had not even laid eyes on the academy yet, they still carried pride in their hearts. Having earned the qualification to access the Imperial City's resources, who in the entire Western Frontier could surpass them?

Besides, many of them came from great Lineages. How could they not be furious at being treated like this? Their blood stirred, and at last they found the courage to face these bandits. "Kill them! We have more people—let's see who gives out first!" That was right, they had numbers. Altogether, there were more than a hundred people who had joined Imperial City Academy.

Yet these bandits numbered no more than thirty-odd people. It was not as if they had never killed bandits before. Once they thought it through, everyone's morale began to return, and the bandits before them no longer seemed so terrifying.

"Good. You dare resist? Kill them!" For some reason, the bandit leader seemed unwilling to think any further. He gave the order at once and attacked them. The others did not hesitate either, brandishing their sabers as they charged forward.

"Kill them! You are all students of Imperial City Academy—do not disgrace the academy!" Liu Yin roared, drawing a longsword from who knew where. Before anyone else could move, he rushed forward and intercepted the bandit leader.

Only those two had reached the Spirit Practitioner Realm. If he did not step up to hold this man back, the students behind him would suffer grievous losses. Now, he could only hope these new students had some strength and combat experience. Otherwise, when they returned to the academy, his guilt would be immense.
