Ye Feng and the others said nothing. Although they had all made significant progress lately, they had not had much time.
So far, even the strongest among them had only reached the early Innate Realm.
"What, are you all mute? Why aren't you saying anything? Too scared?"
Dongfang Ao swept his gaze over Ye Feng and the others one by one, his face full of mockery and his arrogance unchecked.
Ye Feng and the others frowned slightly and looked toward Yun Che on the platform, asking whether they should attack.
Yun Che considered it briefly, then said, "You'd still have some trouble beating him one-on-one right now, but if you all go at him together, you should be able to beat the shit out of him."
At these words, both South Sea's teachers and students and Ye Feng's group froze.
Did he mean to have all ten of them fight him together? Surely that wasn't right!
Dongfang Ao's arrogant expression stiffened slightly. Even with his late Innate Realm strength, he could not face ten elite students at once and come away unscathed.
More importantly, he could not strike to kill, which restricted him even further. He suddenly regretted stepping forward to draw attention to himself.
Dongfang Ao looked at Yun Che and said scornfully, "What kind of mentor are you? Don't you understand fighting fair? Ganging up on someone is cowardly!"
Yun Che smiled. "You challenged them knowing full well their cultivation realms were lower than yours. I don't teach my students to charge in mindlessly. I only teach them to strike when they should. What are you all standing around for? Get him!"
With wicked grins, Ye Feng and the others used their movement techniques, quickly surrounding Dongfang Ao as he tried to leave.
Dongfang Ao began to panic.
