Upon seeing Lin Feng violently beating up Dong Qi, Zhang Qichu and the others felt their hearts leaping from their chests. After all, Dong Qi’s side had more people, including Bai Yilong who was at the Martial Master Realm. But even so, Zhang Qichu and the others still felt extremely satisfied. They could all see that although this junior brother Lin of theirs was young, he did things in a tyrannical and forceful manner, without fear at all. This was how a man’s character should be.

A man… should straighten his back.

A man… should defend one’s dignity.

A man… will never bow and submit to pressure.

A man… cannot be soft.

“Ah, Lin FENG, you are dead! You are dead!” Dong Qi lay on the ground and screamed in agony.

“Lin Feng, you are courting death!” Situ Lei had a sinister look on his face.

“What? You wished to be beaten up too?” said Lin Feng while glancing coldly at Situ Lei.

Upon sensing the cold gaze, Situ Lei was so scared that his neck shrank back.

Situ Lei’s strength was also extremely powerful. Before he met Lin Feng, he was invincible under the Martial Master Realm.

But after he clashed against Lin Feng, he actually couldn’t even withstand a single strike from Lin Feng.

Lin Feng had left a huge shadow deep in Situ Lei’s heart.

Hence, although Situ Lei dared to speak up, he was very afraid of Lin Feng in reality. He basically didn’t have the courage to fight against Lin Feng again.

“What are you afraid of? Situ Lei, go and slap his face. Slap it ruthlessly for me. I want to see if this brat dares to resist or not. If he resists, I will personally act to bury him.” At this moment, Bai Yilong spoke.

Bai Yilong had never planned to spare Lin Feng.

However, before he finished Lin Feng off, Bai Yilong also wanted to humiliate Lin Feng harshly.

Hearing Bai Yilong’s words, Situ Lei was as though he had just eaten a pill that set his mind at ease. He instantly became gutsy.

Situ Lei walked toward Lin Feng, laughing maliciously as he aimed a slap at Lin Feng’s face.

Evidently, Situ Lei didn’t believe that Lin Feng would still dare to fight back at this moment.

After all, Bai Yilong, who was a martial master, had already spoken.

(“He wouldn’t dare to defy Bai Yilong’s words, right?”)

Bai Yilong’s presence and words gave Situ Lei courage.

In addition, Bai Yilong had already used his powerful aura to lock onto Lin Feng.

Being enveloped by the aura, Lin Feng could feel its pressure.

It seemed that as long as he made any move, Bai Yilong would attack with the force of ten thousand thunderbolts.

And at this moment, Situ Lei’s slap was about to come in contact with Lin Feng’s face.

Swish~

Lin Feng moved.

His actions were packed with the force of thunder and the swiftness of lightning.

Opening his palm, Lin Feng smacked Situ Lei.

“You still dare to retaliate?” Situ Lei was badly shocked and wanted to swiftly retreat.

Of all the people here, no one expected that Lin Feng still dared to retaliate at this moment. This truly had surpassed their expectations.

Lin Feng’s attack was too quick. He directly blasted Situ Lei backward into retreat.

After that, he stretched his hand and grabbed Situ Lei’s neck, hoisting him up into the air.

“Lin Feng!”

After recovering from the surprise, Bai Yilong roared in anger.

“Haha. Bai Yilong, did you really think I’m afraid of you? How ridiculous. I, Lin Feng, am a true man. Why would I be scared of you?” Lin Feng coldly laughed.

“You want to let trash like Situ Lei humiliate me? You are merely carried away by your wishful thinking!”

“Pak!”

Lin Feng’s slap directly smacked Situ Lei’s face.

All they could hear was a dog screeching in pain and agony.

Nevertheless, this slap was no different from smacking Bai Yilong’s face.

Bai Yilong’s expression grew extremely gloomy.

But at this moment, Situ Lei was in Lin Feng’s hand, and he didn’t dare to act recklessly.

“Quickly, release the signal,” Zhang Qichu whispered.

Su Zimo nodded and directly fired a ball of smoke and fire into the air. In the darkness of the night, this signal was extremely bright.

Upon seeing this, Bai Yilong’s expression grew even darker.

This signal would attract Jialan Academy’s students in the surroundings to gather.

Lin Feng also knew that once the signal was released, Bai Yilong wouldn’t dare to make any reckless move.

“Bai Yilong, I will return this trash to you.” Lin Feng coldly laughed and directly tossed Situ Lei out.

Thud.

Situ Lei fell to the ground and was in an incomparably miserable state.

“Excellent… Lin Feng. You are very… very good.” Bai Yilong’s face was extremely grim, a sinister killing intent flickering in his eyes.

“Senior brother, should we finish them?” asked someone behind Bai Yilong.

Bai Yilong spoke, “The gathering signal has been released, and other students will soon make their way here. We are out of time.”

Bai Yilong looked at Lin Feng as he coldly spoke, “Lin Feng, half a year later, the inter-competition of the four branch courts will start. Now, you better pray hard that you won’t encounter me in it then. Because, if we meet each other, I will make sure that you die without a burial place.”

Lin Feng coldly laughed and rebutted without fear, “The inter-competition? Fine, I will wait…”

“Hmph.” Bai Yilong snorted and left with his group of people.

“Let’s leave too.” After Bai Yilong’s group left, Lin Feng and the others gathered the bodies of the fellow students who had died with heavy sorrow in their hearts. They then erected a simple stone tablet and buried everyone together. After Lin Feng’s group paid their respects three times, they departed the area.

After that, more and more students rushed here. When they saw the grave of their fellow students, many people had looks of sorrow on their faces.

Even an elder of the academy came. He spoke in a low voice, “The demons and devils bring calamity and chaos. If we cannot eradicate them all, the ones who die in the future will be our kin, our friends, and our loved ones. We have to go all-out and fight them until the bitter end.”

“We are willing to offer their blood as sacrifices to our swords. We will exterminate all the demons and devils in the True Martial Country!” Many students of the Jialan Academy had sadness and rage on their faces as they roared.

…

A bonfire blazed.

Lin Feng and his group sat before the bonfire. After they had seen the deaths of the academy’s students in the hands of the devils and demons, no one had spoken much. The atmosphere felt extremely heavy.

Su Zimo felt that everyone should chat about something. He then spoke, “Junior brother Lin, Bai Yilong is a top-tier expert from the younger generation of the Bai Clan. You have to be very careful of him. If you really encounter him in the inter-competition, it’s best if you retreat temporarily and hide away. Do not fight against him head-on.”

The others nodded. Evidently, they all felt that Lin Feng should temporarily keep a low profile.

Lin Feng spoke, “There’s still half a year until the inter-competition begins. You guys don’t need to worry about me. When the time comes, it is still unknown who will be the one to perish.”

Everyone clicked their tongues, feeling taken aback by Lin Feng’s confidence. But when they thought of his talent, they felt that there was a possibility that he might truly be able to defeat Bai Yilong half a year later.

Zhang Qichu and the others couldn’t help but feel some anticipation in their hearts.

Lin Feng sat cross-legged before the bonfire. He stared at the fire as the scene of Bai Yilong killing hundreds of demons in the span of tens of breath replayed in his mind. He was still shocked as he recalled the scene; Bai Yilong was someone that was quite tough to deal with, and his sword controlling technique was extremely marvelous and mysterious.

However, Lin Feng wasn’t worried.

He possessed absolute confidence in himself. He believed in his talent and the power of the Immemorial Dragon Elephant Art he was cultivating.

Half a year later, defeating Bai Yilong wouldn’t be a difficult thing at all.

….

The night was as cool as water.

In the later part of the night, black clouds covered the sky.

From afar, boundless blood-colored light flooded the surroundings, and in the center of it, a tall and imposing figure stood up.

“Roar…” The mighty existence lifted its head and howled at the sky. The sound of its roar shook the entire sky as though a fiendgod had been revived. The intensity of a single roar actually caused the entire mountain range to shudder; a terrifying aura permeated the area.
