The fierce battle was still going on in the place where the Shanhe Academy students had originally gathered.
Two of the three seriously injured scholars from the Mountain River School had already died from the surprise attack, and the remaining one looked like he was not far from death.
“Senior Brother Lin, Lu Yi has disappeared ——” suddenly, one of the scholars noticed the strange situation on the small hill, the science scholar Lu Yi who had been staring at them had actually disappeared and was nowhere to be seen, and immediately exclaimed.
“It’s gone ——” Lin Shenfeng remembered that he hadn’t seen Lu Yi shooting arrows for quite some time, what had happened on the hill.
After a moment’s contemplation, Lin Shenfeng made an immediate decision and said, “All of you, counter-attack.”
No matter what had happened on Lu Yi’s side, the Mountain River Academy had now reached a point where they had to counter-attack, and if they kept their hands tied like this, they were afraid that they would all be wiped out.
“Form the ‘Dragon Formation’.”
As Lin Shenfeng gave the order, the students who still had the strength to fight were all able to use their “Hao Ran Zheng Qi” and combined it with the other students.
The Confucian “Dragon Formation” is based on the beautiful vision of “everyone is like a dragon”, and is a method of uniting the strength of all people to become a dragon, and the power of the dragon can be used by everyone.
Lin Shenfeng took the leading position and guided the attackers, “Brothers, listen to my command and join forces to attack the giant machine.”
“Yes.” All of them answered in unison.
The pure white cloud dragon gathered the “Hao Rang Qi” of many students and let out a silent roar. Although the roar was silent, the strong wind caused by the powerful qi blew the surrounding trees, and some small trees were even broken by the strong wind. The enemies who had wanted to take advantage of the attack were also deterred by the strong wind and did not dare to approach.
The cloud dragon swung its tail, carrying the true qi of all of them, and charged at the giant machine man who was too clumsy to dodge.
“Boom…”
With a loud bang, the combined strength of all of us, the Cloud Dragon of Qi actually knocked the giant machine man’s feet off the ground and sent it flying a foot away.
On top of the machine man, the place where the chest collided with the dragon’s head was even cracked and sunken into. After all, it was only made from ordinary trees in the mountain, so it was normal for it to be destroyed by this single move that gathered the strength of all the people.
Red blood gradually seeped out from the tiny cracks. If the operator had not reached the Divine Origin realm, he would not have been able to manipulate it with his spiritual power.
It was impossible to manipulate the giant machine man with the Silk Puppet Technique, so someone could only hide in the machine man and be an Iron Man. The Iron Man, who was hiding in this position, could not escape the fate of being crushed to death.
After the combined force of the moves, all the people from the Shanhe Academy had exerted all their strength, and all of them were a bit depleted afterwards, only a few two or three of them were so strong that they still had strength left. Among them, Lin Shenfeng had the most strength left and was able to take advantage of the opportunity to hunt down those of the Great Qian.
Lin Shenfeng and the others squeezed the true qi in their bodies and manipulated the Dragon of Qi to rush into the group of enemies coming from the front under the cover of the giant machine.
With another shock, several of the frontal enemies were shattered by the “Hao Ren Zheng Qi” contained in this blow, killing them on the spot. The remaining men fled in a panic, scared out of their wits by this blow.
On the Daqian side, Qing Yu alone had killed seven or eight people, making him the unsung hero of the Shan He Academy. And the military and Department Six had taken away their respective men to go to the Mountain Top School to look for the Heavenly Son martial arts hidden in it.
The fight in the dense forest just now, although Lu Yi threatened with his bow and arrow, Lin Shenfeng and other experts among the scholars were not without their cuts.
The identity of hunter and prey is always easy to change, but in a matter of moments, the hunter suddenly became the prey, and suffered heavy casualties, and had to flee in disarray.
Lin Shenfeng was relieved to see that the enemy had retreated, but suddenly he stumbled and took two sharp steps before he fell, “All of you, if you still have the strength, gather the bodies of your deceased brothers and sisters in one place, and then collect their remains after the competition for the position in the literary world is over.”
At these words, the crowd reluctantly gathered the bodies of the students who had died in the battle together, although they said they still had the strength to do so.
A short while later, Zeng Yue finished counting the remains and reported to Lin Shen Feng, “Senior Brother Lin, the remains of all the students have been gathered, seven students unfortunately pa*sed away in this battle, and two others were seriously injured. As well as ——”
“As well as what?” Lin Shenfeng asked.
“The whereabouts of the senior brother who called Meng De is unknown.” Zeng Yue said.
“Senior Brother Meng De? ——” Lin Shenfeng recited. He remembered this senior brother who had delivered the remains of Zhang Feng’s signature and was also the first person to find out where Lu Yi was, this senior brother should not be the type of person to run away from a battle.
“Senior brother,” Feng Jiu suddenly interjected, “Senior brother Meng De, when he was in the middle of the battle just now, led one of the attackers elsewhere.”
“Is that so ——,” Lin Shenfeng felt a little relieved, at least only for the fact that senior brother wasn’t the one who was running away from the battle.
To be honest, as the leader of this literary competition for the position, Lin Shenfeng also knew something related to the Hao Qi Long River, to be able to isolate the small secret realm from the outside world, apart from the death of both the dean of the academy and the lecturers, there was only one possibility, and that was the betrayal of a lecturer who could control the Hao Qi Long River.
This was something that Lin Shenfeng did not say in order to stabilise the hearts of the people, but in his heart, he had lost some confidence in the “Hao Ran Zheng Qi”. If he could make a lecturer who had been cultivating “Hao Ran Zheng Qi” for decades betray, would no one in the secret realm betray him?
With this thought in mind, Lin Shenfeng could not help but feel a little wary of the other students. However, the situation now made him blame himself for being a bit worried, as betrayal was only an isolated case and one could not generalise.
Lin Shenfeng, who was suddenly relieved, did not know that the traitor had already been eliminated by a certain “unsung hero”, and now there was not even a scrap left.
Now, this “unsung hero” was looking at the scene from a hidden height with his remarkable eyesight.
“The damage seems to be within acceptable limits ——” thought Qing Yu, a little surprised as he counted the remaining students.
It was good to have nine people alive, even the two who were seriously injured, as long as they were alive, they could at least be cannon fodder if necessary, very good. Moreover, if these nine survived the battle, they were not so inexperienced in fighting the enemy and would still be able to fight the remaining enemies on the Great Qian side.
“The Great Qian’s men have played a bad move this time, a battle that they thought was a sure thing, but was unexpectedly a fiasco.”
Qing Yu closed his eyes on his knees and took a rest, just like the crowd below, silently recuperating in preparation for the battle on the mountain top.
