Chapter 160: Three Are Wounded

Chapter 160: Three Are Wounded

"Flying Dragon in the Sky." Li Xiaofei suddenly appeared and struck out with a palm.

A roaring golden dragon shadow descended from the sky, targeting several members of Hongye High School.

Wang Siyu and Gu Haochen stepped forward simultaneously.

"Seven Mysteries Palm!"

"First Sword!"

Both of them struck back at the same time, sending palm force and sword energy whistling out. When the energies collided, tri-colored starforce qi exploded in the sky, transforming into a fierce wind that radiated in all directions. Li Xiaofei's attack was completely blocked.

Almost simultaneously, Huang Yueru, the Thousand-Armed Mech God, secretly raised her hand and pulled the trigger on his mini crossbow. Three needle-thin bone arrows shot silently towards Li Xiaofei's chest.

It was aimed directly at his center of mass. The goal was not a fatal strike but simply to hit. Li Xiaofei had no way to dodge in mid-air. He exhaled sharply, dispersing his starforce qi, and using a technique similar to Thousand-Pound Drop to plummet rapidly. The three needles grazed his temple, narrowly missing him.

Boom!

He landed heavily on the ground like a meteorite. The members of Hongye High School surrounded him in an instant. Wang Siyu's palm and Gu Haochen's sword attacked simultaneously from either side, as Huang Yueru, Liu Yao, and He Changzai took positions at a safe distance.

The discipline of Hongye High School's team was impeccable. They did not swarm Li Xiaofei just because he appeared alone. The main combatants faced him head-on while the support professions provided assistance from a periphery. It was the best strategy to maximize the combat power of a team.

"Dragon Battle in the Wilderness!" Li Xiaofei shouted.

He unleashed the Dragon-Subduing Eighteen Palms once again, erupting with starforce qi. Dozens of golden dragon shadows flickered around his body for protection, and he launched a fierce strike at Gu Haochen, leaving his back exposed to Wang Siyu.

The palm force was immensely powerful, extremely firm and fierce.

Roar!

A mountain-crushing pressure descended on the battlefield. Gu Haochen felt his breath catch, as he felt like an ancient divine mountain was collapsing on him. Fear gripped his heart, causing his sword technique to falter slightly. Li Xiaofei seized the opportunity to strike the bone sword with his palm.

Crack.

The bone sword shattered instantly, sending bone fragments through the air like dancing butterflies. Gu Haochen staggered backward, his starforce qi disrupted.

Bang!

But Wang Siyu seized his opportunity and struck Li Xiaofei's shoulder with the Seven Mysteries Palm. The strike was powerful and heavy, something no ordinary flesh and blood could withstand. Li Xiaofei was immediately thrown back like a broken kite, landing heavily on the ground several meters away.

His impact threw up dust. The exchange had taken a blink of an eye, and people were still catching up.

Has the battle already ended?

Gu Haochen stared at the shattered sword in his hand, replaying the scene of Li Xiaofei's powerful palm strike in his mind. He realized that in that instant, he had felt fear. He was actually afraid when facing the formidable enemy he had always wanted to challenge!

But the force of that palm strike was truly terrifying. He couldn’t help but feel like he would have been beaten to death. Gu Haochen was both shocked and furious. If it weren't for Wang Siyu's assistance, he would have been defeated.

At that moment, Wang Siyu's expression changed as he shouted, "Watch out—"

But before anyone could register his warning...

“Kuh!"

A muffled cry rang out as the Flower of a Thousand Blossoms, Liu Yao, was sent flying. Li Xiaofei had struck her chest heavily with his palm.

He’s not dead? He took Wang Siyu's palm strike head-on and still had the strength to attack?

Gu Haochen was shocked once again but Wang Siyu immediately understood what had happened. Li Xiaofei had not taken his palm strike not because he was unable to dodge, but because he wanted to use the force of the blow to break out of their encirclement. He had wanted to close the distance to the three support members.

When the dust rose, everyone thought Li Xiaofei was severely injured and incapacitated. That brief moment where they had lowered their guard had given him the opportunity to strike.

However, the only thing Wang Siyu couldn't understand was how a flesh-and-blood body could withstand his Seven Mysteries Palm without dying or being seriously injured. But he had no time to ponder it because his two teammates, Huang Yueru and He Changzai, were in great danger.

Wang Siyu released the shackle on his left foot. He accelerated to his maximum speed as he charged recklessly towards Huang Yueru and the others. If Li Xiaofei wasn’t being restrained by the main combatants, Huang Yueru and He Changzai were nothing more than sheep in the face of a tiger.

Bang, bang.

Two simultaneous impacts echoed across the battlefield. Li Xiaofei had landed a powerful palm strike on Huang Yueru. The latter's right arm was snapped clean through as she tried to block. The broken, jagged bone tore through her arm and was stained with blood. The Dragon-Subduing Eighteen Palms was far beyond what Huang Yueru could withstand.

Li Xiaofei wanted to deliver another strike to kill the firearms master of Hongye High School, but he was forced to change plans as a Great Ax Springing Leg descended on him. He sidestepped and struck back with a reverse palm using the Dragon-Subduing Eighteen Palms, Divine Dragon Swings its Tail.

Boom!

Palm force clashed with leg force. Wang Siyu hadn't expected his opponent to deliver such an exquisite strike without even turning around. The collision threw him back as his left leg went numb.

"How is this possible?" Wang Siyu couldn't contain his shock.

Li Xiaofei seemed even stronger than when they had fought in solo mode.

He took a palm strike to his shoulder, yet he still had such combat power? Is this guy made of iron?

"What are you standing around for?" Wang Siyu shouted at Gu Haochen.

Gu Haochen snapped out of his daze. The fear in his heart instantly transformed into boundless rage.

Ah, ah, ah. You made me feel fear? This is unforgivable. Kill!

Gu Haochen's hands formed sword-like fingers as he recklessly attacked Li Xiaofei. Wang Siyu also launched his own assault, using his left hand to unleash the Thousand Buddha Fist while his right hand used the Seven Mysteries Palm.

Li Xiaofei managed to land a blow on He Changzai, sending him flying, but he didn’t have enough time to finish him off. He had to muster his strength and unleash the Dragon-Subduing Eighteen Palms to hold off both attackers.

Countless spectators watched in amazement as Li Xiaofei single-handedly withstood the assault of two of Hongye High School's top star combatants.

At the same time, the other four members of Red Flag High School also sprang into action. The opportunity had arrived. Li Xiaofei had not only injured Huang Yueru, Liu Yao, and He Changzai but also managed to hold off Wang Siyu and Gu Haochen. He had created a significant advantage.

If Fang Buyi, Ren Dong, Bai Qiqi, and Bai Longfei failed to seize this chance, they might as well buy a piece of tofu and smash their heads on it.

"Kill." Fang Buyi wielded his long staff.

"Haha, three wounded targets." Bai Longfei looked energized as he eyed the two female opponents.

Ren Dong and Bai Qiqi also revealed their ferocious sides as they launched their own attacks. The battle instantly reached a fever pitch.

"Snow Fiend."

Liu Yao, struggling to get up from the snow, spat out a mist of blood. The mist transformed into several phantasmal human figures in the air that bolted toward Li Xiaofei. She had correctly calculated that the only threat from Red Flag High School was Li Xiaofei. Once they eliminated that monster, the others would be insignificant.

The moment she had been severely injured, she had activated a secret potion within her that fully unleashed all her physical potential. She refined a breath of vital essence and blood and turned it into the most toxic targeted blood mist. But once she launched it at Li Xiaofei, she was completely spent and hand no fighting ability left.

"Kill." Ren Dong attacked mercilessly with her poisoned dagger.

Liu Yao's face remained expressionless as she didn’t dodge. Instead, she opened her arms, embracing Ren Dong's poisoned dagger with her body, then hugged this freckled, little girl tightly.

"Sister, you have a long way to go," Liu Yao whispered softly in Ren Dong's ear.

Without warning, her entire body exploded violently, turning into a cloud of toxic blood mist. Ren Dong had no chance to resist and was taken out instantly.

Two streams of data flickered through the void as each side lost a member.
