At night, the temperature on Nine Dragon Mountain plummeted. Standing at the top of Fire Peak and looking into the distance, Wang Ling saw that a lot of places were actually frozen over and even snowing; it was a completely different world from Fire Peak.
Fire Peak was surrounded by a tropical climate. It was extremely hot during the day, but just right at night.
So in theory, Fire Peak was an ideal place to set up camp. But the people from No. 60 High School never expected that after they set up camp here for so long, no one would come to fight them for territory.
The plummeting temperature in the distance blended with the warm air here, and the temperature difference instantly created a large white mist around Nine Dragon Mountain. It was like a song of ice and fire.
It was more dangerous to act at night than during the day, but the truth was that as long as one was good at using the white mist as cover, the success rate of a sneak attack would greatly increase.
So Wang Ling was wondering if someone was going to take advantage of this opportunity to launch a night attack on them.
But whether or not there was a night attack, Wang Ling didn't care at all about the attack itself. To him, this competition was just a game to pass the time. He didn't take it seriously, nor did he intend to use his spiritual senses to spy on the enemy.
He would just let nature take its course.
At that moment, there was a violent whistling sound as Wang Ling felt something heavy fall on the back of his head, followed by the crisp sound of a collision.
Hm …
Someone was sneaking up on him.
But Wang Ling had already sensed this person's presence earlier on.
Wang Ling had thought that he might be able to trigger the golden talisman's life-saving effect with this blow, fall down, and wait for the teachers to rescue him before leaving the competition as soon as possible.
But unfortunately, because that light blow just now was far from fatal to Wang Ling, the fatal effect hadn't been triggered.
The person who had attacked Wang Ling was none other than Zhu Hanyun, the team leader of Titan High School.
This was a precise blow aimed at the back of Wang Ling's head. Judging from the strength of the swing, it should have been enough to trigger the golden talisman's fatal judgment without the other party noticing … But Wang Ling just scratched his head without any movement. Behind him, Zhu Hanyun was stupefied and instantly on guard!
This person …
There was something wrong …
Zhu Hanyun was extremely astonished as he thought this.
When he had hit Wang Ling with the ore just now, not only had Wang Ling not been injured, Zhu Hanyun's own hand had gone numb.
"Retreat!" In a moment of desperation, Zhu Hanyun used the Sound Transmission Spell to send a signal, and Titan High School, which had been preparing to besiege No. 60 High School, immediately withdrew from the front line.
The truth was that at the foot of Fire Peak, several high schools had already joined hands to encircle and annihilate No. 60 High.
Titan High had been sent out as the vanguard, but they hadn't expected to receive Zhu Hanyun's order to retreat not long after they went up.
Titan High School, South Sea Sky High School, Northern Fist High School, and West Leg Tyrant High School formed a temporary cultivation school alliance to inquire about the situation.
"What happened?"
"Senior Brother is injured!" Titan High's Junior Sister Yan Xiaochun helped Zhu Hanyun down from Nine Dragon Mountain.
"How did it happen?"
South Sea Sky High immediately sent a medical student over to check on Zhu Hanyun's injuries. "Right arm, fractured bone … You need to quickly bandage it and stabilize it. Otherwise, there might be repercussions."
"Fractured bone?" Nan Yixiu, the squadron leader of South Sea Sky, frowned deeply.
Zhu Hanyun's body was extremely dense. For such a physique to show signs of bone fractures, it was most likely due to some kind of violent impact. But the problem was that from the foot of the mountain, they had been keeping a close eye on what was going on up there, but there hadn't been any movement at all up there …
So the question was, where had the injury on Zhu Hanyun's arm come from?
At that moment, Zhu Hanyun's face was red with shame, and he naturally didn't want to say more about what had just happened.
Even if he did … he didn't intend to tell the truth.
He had picked up an ore to sneak up on someone else, and had even smashed the back of the head, which was a fatal and fragile part. In the end, not only had the other party not been injured, he had even suffered a fracture …
What an extraordinary shame and humiliation!
"The other party is very dangerous!" Helpless, Zhu Hanyun could only exaggerate to highlight No. 60 High's strength. "I wanted to launch a sneak attack, but the other party saw through it. The other party was already prepared, and used a very strange defensive spell to cause my strength to rebound, and then I became like this … "
"The other party was prepared?" Hearing this, Nan Yitian frowned deeply.
It seemed that No. 60 High's team also had a perception-type player.
Not only had he predicted the night attack in advance, but he had also made preparations in advance …
If it really was as Zhu Hanyun said, that the other party could predict and set up a defensive spell in advance to counteract Zhu Hanyun's attack … Nan Yixiu could only think of the Reverse Armor Spell.
But given Zhu Hanyun's physique, even if he had been hit by the Reverse Armor Spell, he might not have suffered a fracture.
Unless he had cultivated this Reverse Armor Spell to an extremely high level, which was at least Level Seven or Level Eight …
They were all Foundation Establishment students.
Nan Yixiu found it inconceivable that someone could cultivate the Reverse Armor Art, an unorthodox magic spell that wasn't part of his main curriculum, to such a high level.
He never thought that the plan to encircle and annihilate No. 60 High would actually fail in the first round …
But Fire Peak was a very important stronghold, and the four great high schools had to work together to take down this bone.
"Don't send anyone up there for the time being. It's best if we use some tricks to force them down the mountain."
"Set a fire?" someone suggested.
"Set a mountain on fire and you'll die in prison …"
"Of course we can't set a mountain fire so casually, but Nine Dragon Mountain's terrain is special. The rainbow mist in the morning can repair the vegetation and extinguish the fire, so it shouldn't be a big problem."
"But the main reason we're fighting for Fire Peak with No. 60 High is for resources. It takes time for the rainbow mist to repair the vegetation. If we set a fire to seize the territory, it'll be meaningless if we burn all the spirit plants here. We have to think of another way, "said Nan Yixiu.
…
Elsewhere, at No. 60 High's camp on the mountaintop, Gu Shunzhi had long since noticed what was going on at the foot of the mountain. Despite the thick fog, this level of fog was useless against him.
"Forty people are underground." Gu Shunzhi used a branch to draw a map of the situation at the foot of the mountain. Students from four cultivation high schools were restlessly watching No. 60 High's camp from underground.
"Are we surrounded?"
Super Chen and Hero Guo frowned. For the time being, they hadn't found a way out.
A few minutes later, countless hellfire actually appeared below them …
"The other party used the Spirit Summoning Spell." Super Chen immediately identified the origin of this spell.
Because this was the first thing they had learned in Teacher Pan's Dao talismans class in the first semester!
It was also in that Dao talismans class that he had used this spell.
He summoned Loopy Toad's remnant soul …
