He Yi's body slammed heavily into the ground, leaving behind a ten-meter-long trail before it slowly came to a stop.
A petite black figure flew out from the darkness at an incredible speed. In the blink of an eye, it snatched the key that had flown out of the air.
The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.
They all recognized this oriole. It was Dong Ling and Ming Xu, who had claimed to have left the group to search for Li Xiang.
She held the Demonic Wings in her hand, which was still emitting white smoke. That shot had been incredibly powerful, but it hadn't been able to kill He Yi in one hit. This made her somewhat confused.
Ming Xu landed lightly on the ground. The Queen of Pain, who had been fighting with Fei Yujing and the others, had transformed back into her original form. She stared coldly at the group of intruders.
He Yi crawled to his feet in a sorry state. The Origin Substance inner armor hidden under his clothes had already been shattered. Countless wisps of grayish-white gas spewed out from his body, making him look like a gas leak. It was quite comical.
Fortunately, he was wearing an Origin Substance inner armor. Otherwise, Ming Xu's shot would have seriously injured him even if he didn't die. However, he had used up an item that could save his life just like that. His expression was ugly, and his voice was cold and piercing. "Miss Ming Xu, we shouldn't kill each other during Polar night, right?"
"Polar night?" Ming Xu tilted her head cutely, a thoughtful expression on her face. "Are you also from Polar night?"
He Yi almost spat out a mouthful of blood. Was this girl pretending to be dumb, or did she really not remember?
At the Polar night banquet, he had been the first to speak.
When they heard the words "Polar night," Bai Haiting and Ba Yunchi were both startled. So He Yi, Dong Ling, and Ming Xu had all come from Polar night!
The Polar night training camp was a very strange place for people in their circle. Generally, as long as one had enough talent, no one would choose to go to the Polar night training camp. After all, the mortality rate was too high. There was no need to challenge something extremely dangerous when they were still young eagles. It would be a great loss if they died.
However, the aristocratic families and even some of the younger generation of the Five Sovereigns would choose various training camps. They might not be talented, or they might be looking for a breakthrough. Regardless of the reason, if they could survive the Polar night, they would be the most troublesome enemies in the future.
Yakumo Chi was deeply moved. A few months ago, after the end of the unified recruitment exam, he removed Ai Yakumo from his list of competitors. He didn't expect her to change so drastically after coming out of the Polar night.
He Yi, Dong Ling, and Ming Xu were obviously different from Ai Yakumo.
"Hehe, Ming Xu, I knew you would also come to snatch the key." Baimiya casually stabbed the heavy sword in her hand into the ground and laughed with her arms crossed.
Ming Xu glanced at her and suddenly stuffed the key into her short skirt. She made a very vigilant action. "I'm not giving it to you."
"…" Baimiya coughed a few times. This girl, apart from Li Xiang, had no room to communicate with anyone else.
"Miss Ming Xu, thank you for helping me before. If you want to enter that building, you can join forces with us. However, isn't it a little bad for you to monopolize the key alone?" Fei Yujing stepped forward and the Ice Sword in her hand disappeared with a whoosh.
Ming Xu looked at her with an uncertain expression. Suddenly, she pouted and turned her head away. She snorted coldly and did not intend to respond to her.
The help that Fei Yujing mentioned was that someone helped her when she encountered a powerful hunting species before. Now seeing the way she attacked He Yi, the girl's delicate mind made her guess that the person was Dong Ling and Ming Xu.
When he was in the main group, Ming Xu also showed a different view and interest towards him compared to the others.
This girl from Dong Ling's family was very strange, but she had an inexplicable feeling for him.
"He is not a good person." Ming Xu's bright eyes swept over He Yi. Facing most people who were not Li Xiang, she maintained a concise and comprehensive tone, "That medicine bottle will attract hunting species."
He Yi looked at her with a pale face.
Did this girl deliberately come to undermine him?
The medicine bottle she mentioned naturally referred to the thing he used to bait Bai Yunfei and others.
"The people of Hou City were also attacked like this." Ming Xu thought for a while and added another sentence.
Bai Haiting and the others suddenly understood. Previously, Ming Xu had come alone with a group of trial takers from Marquis City to request to join. They had heard that He Yi had saved them on the way. So it turned out that those people from Marquis City had also been set up by He Yi.
What kind of people were the Trial Takers of Hou City? Most of them were from the civilian class. The only relatively powerful ones were their family elders who worked in the military department or a force. In their eyes, they were not even ants.
Why would He Yi spend so much effort to deal with such a group of people who were not competitive?
Now that they analyzed it, the answer was obvious. Of course, it was related to the person named Li Xiang.
Among the several people present, except for Ai Yakumo, all knew Li Xiang.
Bai Haiting and Baimiya knew of his existence when they first met Li Xiang. They also made a bet on his future development. The latter even had a deep bond with Li Xiang during the Polar night.
Fei Yujing was needless to say. Now when the name of this enemy was mentioned, her face would blush a little.
As for Ming Xu, it was precisely because he had sensed that the trial takers from Hou City were being targeted by He Yi that he had quietly followed them.
"Motherf * cker, so it was you who did all this!" Baimiya suddenly jumped up. She pulled out the heavy sword that was deeply inserted into the ground with one hand and hit He Yi's head.
She was naturally talking about the series of events that had happened after Tang Li and Wang He shouted out Li Xiang's identity. This guy was currently her ally. Scheming against her ally was the same as scheming against her.
He Yi was startled by Baimiya's sudden attack. Fortunately, Bai Haiting acted decisively and blocked her heavy sword with one hand. The two of them both took a step back. The ground beneath their feet cracked, revealing terrifying cracks. It was clear that they were serious and had not held back.
Yakumo Chi looked at Baimiya in confusion. "Miss Micha, are you familiar with that Li Xiang?"
"Ha, he's one of my people. How could I not know?" Baimiya blurted out. Then, she felt two cold gazes on her back. She quickly changed her words. "No, no, no. He's my friend."
"Friend? My cousin Ai Yakumo is also very familiar with him. And there's miss Micha as well. There's also these two … that guy, he didn't come from the Polar Night, did he? "Yakumo Chi's expression changed as she looked at Bai Haiting. The two of them looked at each other before looking back at He Yi.
He Yi laughed dryly, but he didn't respond.
Hiding in the shadows, Li Xiang and Bai Yunfei were enjoying the show. Bai Yunfei was a little confused, so Li Xiang explained it to him with a smile.
"He Yi and … Li Xiang graduated from the Polar Night at the same time. There's no way they wouldn't know his identity. He Yi is working with these young ladies, but from the reactions of the others, he didn't tell them." Li Xiang smiled playfully. "If he knew this, Yakumo Chi wouldn't have been used as a chess piece in the passage outside."
Bai Yunfei suddenly understood. Indeed, regardless of background, the title of a Polar Night graduate alone was worth the attention of any trial-taker. He clenched his teeth. This Li Xiang was actually a Polar Night graduate? If he could kill his way out of that place with Baimiya and the other monsters, how could he be weak?
Could it be that he couldn't even deal with a piece of trash like him?
Up until now, he hadn't been able to deal with any of the young geniuses that had come into contact with Fei Yujing. Now, Li Xiang had finally appeared, and he was actually also from the Polar Night?
He Yi and the others were even more embarrassed. Originally, Wild Hunter had found them and offered them a reward, hoping that they could help deal with Li Xiang in the ultimate trial. At first, they hadn't paid much attention to it. What could a commoner trial-taker do? They hadn't expected him to actually come from the Polar Night.
The information that Wild Hunter had given them didn't mention the Polar Night at all, and He Yi knew about it but didn't say anything. This was clearly playing them like monkeys.
"Fuck, that Wild Hunter almost killed me …" Bai Yunfei was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat.
Li Xiang on the side asked doubtfully: "Wild Hunter, who is that?"
"General Shogun's eldest son, the brother of the recently deceased young master Kuang Tie. Aiya, you can't come into contact with that level. Don't ask too much." Bai Yunfei waved his hand.
Hearing that it was related to General Shogun, Li Xiang was instantly alert. This Bai Yunfei also said something about almost killing him. These words were also thought-provoking.
Several possibilities turned over in his mind, and his face gradually darkened.
"Are we still not going out?" Bai Yunfei was somewhat impatient. If he went out now and followed them, he might be able to get some benefits. His status was there, so he wouldn't embarrass him.
"No hurry." Li Xiang shook his head.
"Oh right, didn't they mention a commoner Li Xiang just now? If you can help me kill him later, I'll definitely thank you! "Bai Yunfei sneered.
