"Eh?"
Before Lu Ping could answer Xu Chuan, he saw the Dark Academy suddenly attack the group from Black Tortoise Academy. Several surges of soul power surged under the snow, like a small boat breaking through the waves, sending the snowflakes flying as they charged towards Xu Chuan.
The Black Tortoise Academy reacted quickly. Two of them quickly flashed to Xu Chuan's side and waved their hands, turning the snow into ice. A wall was formed in an instant, blocking the attacks coming from under the snow.
Pa!
The attacks crashed into the ice wall, creating some cracks. Behind the ice wall, Xu Chuan did not move at all, only glancing at the attacks from the corner of his eye. The Dark Academy continued to attack stubbornly, as if they would not rest until the ice wall was destroyed. Xu Chuan showed a nonchalant expression, his gaze remaining on Lu Ping.
But Lu Ping was not looking at him. He looked at the ice wall, subconsciously extending his senses, and immediately detected two other surges of soul power. The sound was extremely faint, but it had already circled around the Black Tortoise Academy team.
Lu Ping then glanced at the Black Tortoise Academy team, none of them seemed to have detected the two attacks.
In the great battle of the cultivation world a thousand years ago, the Dark Academy was ultimately defeated by the Four Great Academies. A thousand years later, they, who had struggled to survive in the bitter cold, knew that the gap between them and the Four Great Academies would only grow, and would never shrink. But even so, the Four Great Academies had always been their imaginary enemies. Knowing that the gap in strength was growing, the only way they could think of to deal with their opponents was through assassination and sneak attacks. This was the main direction that the Dark Academy had been advancing their cultivation and developing their special abilities for the past thousand years.
The attack that crashed into the ice wall was only to attract attention, while the other two attacks were the true essence of the Dark Academy over the past thousand years. Lu Ping sensed the trajectory of the two attacks, but found that they had not locked onto any target. They circled around without the Black Tortoise Academy noticing them, and finally met.
The power of soul exploded at this moment, piercing out from the ground like a divine blade, trapping the Black Tortoise Academy team within it. From the expressions of everyone in the Black Tortoise Region, it could be seen that they had not sensed the secret attack at all. It was only when the attack had erupted and could no longer be concealed that they suddenly sensed it.
Just as everyone was about to respond, they suddenly felt their feet sink. The circle of snow created by Dark's attacks suddenly sank down. This drop contained the power of soul, and the power of soul that everyone had been using their techniques to gather was completely nullified by this drop. In that short instant, everyone seemed like ordinary people without the strength to even truss a chicken.
Except for Xu Chuan!
They were both in the Connected Four Physical Realms, but he had been chosen to inherit the name of the Seven Constellations. Without a doubt, his strength was more outstanding. In the instant that the first circle of Soul Power was activated, his body had already soared into the air. The next part of the Soul Power that was used to reduce everyone's weight did not have any effect on him. In midair, Xu Chuan swung both his fists, and the two waves of Soul Power rushed towards the intersection of the two halves. In the instant the circle of power was activated, not only did he react the fastest and make the most correct response, but he also found the key point of the opponent's attack.
"He's stronger than the others," Lu Ping commented.
"Very obvious," Su Tang said.
Of the twenty-five people from Black Tortoise Region, twenty-four of them were lying on the ground, and he was the only one in midair, attacking majestically. The contrast was very obvious.
But Dark's attacks were not so simple, and they were actually prepared for Xu Chuan's attack. Rising up like a sharp blade, the Soul Power that had formed this circle seemed to have grown eyes as it gathered towards Xu Chuan, who was in midair. On the other hand, the twenty-four people lying on the ground had already stabilized themselves, stabilized their Soul Power, and did not continue to attack to make things difficult for them. But Xu Chuan, who was in midair, had already been blasted into a ball of light by the Soul Power that had gathered, bright and dazzling.
"Senior Brother Xu!" The twenty-four people cried out mournfully. Many of them hurriedly raised their hands, using defensive and healing abilities, attacking that ball of light without any care.
It was unknown if these methods were effective, but the ball of light quickly dissipated, and Xu Chuan's figure was revealed, falling rapidly. His fellow disciples hurriedly surrounded him to protect him, but Xu Chuan had already landed steadily on the ground. He waved his hand and said, "I'm fine."
Everyone heaved a sigh of relief, but Xu Chuan's expression was extremely grave. He was fine, but the rainbow-colored belt around his waist, along with his original black belt, were already shattered beyond recognition.
It was these two Black Tortoise Region's defensive Divine Weapons that had been activated at the same time that ensured his safety. And the two Divine Weapons were destroyed at the same time, it was even more obvious how powerful the attack's destructive power was. Xu Chuan could only rejoice that he had received the rainbow-colored belt of the Seven Constellations. Although he did not wear it directly, it did not affect the Divine Weapon's effectiveness. If not for this, he would have been heavily injured even if he did not die.
"Don't act rashly!" Seeing that his fellow disciples were about to launch a counterattack, Xu Chuan hurriedly stopped them.
The other party's methods were strange and terrifying.
Undetectable methods caused the twenty-four people to temporarily lose their fighting strength, but the ultimate destructive attack was not aimed at any of the twenty-four people, but at Xu Chuan, who had broken free and counterattacked. Clearly, they had the ability to find another chance to kill the twenty-four people they thought they could control. But an expert like Xu Chuan, whose strength was obviously a level higher than theirs, was a rare opportunity. He was the first target they wanted to eliminate.
The other party did not seem to be very powerful, but Xu Chuan had never seen such a scheming mind in his life.
"Dark Academy?" Xu Chuan looked at Lu Ping and Su Tang. He had already seen this as a trap.
Lu Ping, who had been trying to hide his identity, was overjoyed when he saw that the other party had misunderstood. He immediately nodded, "Yes."
"Yes my ass." A rebuttal came from quite a distance away.
"They run so fast." Su Tang sighed. The voice belonged to the person who had spoken with them before. After launching this wave of attacks on Black Tortoise Region, they had actually retreated to such a far distance.
"The other party has retreated." The disciple who had been paying close attention to the other party's movements and wanted to counterattack but was stopped by Xu Chuan said to Xu Chuan.
"There are two more over there." Xu Chuan pointed. It was the place where his counterattack had landed. Although he was immediately turned into a ball of light, his attack was not interrupted. He was sure that he had hit two people where he had landed.
"Yes." Someone immediately went to the snow pit to look for them.
"Be careful." Xu Chuan reminded.
As soon as he finished speaking, a ray of blood light suddenly rose from the snow pit, directly piercing through the person closest to the snow pit, leaving a glaring hole on his body. It was extremely terrifying.
The rest of the people charged forward crazily, madly attacking the snow pit with their Spirit Power.
Only Lu Ping knew.
The two people from the Dark Academy there were already dead when they were hit by Xu Chuan's counterattack. What was left there was only a custom-made one.
Sneak attack, plot, assassination, trap.
This was the method the Dark Academy used against the Four Great Academies a thousand years later.
