Furthermore, Lan Xuanyu and his team had won their fourth match. So long as they won another round, it was mission complete to them. In their current situation, Qian Lei would be able to accomplish a summon no matter how slowly he recovered.

Lan Xuanyu had planned it outwithout bothering to attempt summoning Dong Qianqiu due to its probability, relying on the golden patterned Blue Silver Grass power to summon soul beasts with dragon blood was the next most dependable option.

The short pause was no doubt a good thing for them.

The pause did not last for long, as three figures appeared before them once more.

Lan Xuanyu and Liu Feng utilized the same tactic and took the initiative.

Just as the three figures solidified, Liu Feng was already before them.

But unexpectedly, the trio immediately leaped back simultaneously even before they had the opportunity to take account of their surroundings, escaping Liu Fengs attack by a hairs breadth.

What in the world? How were they able to react so quickly?

Liu Feng was startled but did not stop his attack. He thrusted the white dragon spear forward whilst in midair, transforming the entire area before him into a powerful spear aura by pouring out all the amplification effect provided by the golden patterned Blue Silver Grass. Even if they were unable to achieve an instant victory, he had to suppress the enemy at the very least.

The bodies of the three opponents finally became clear.

Their strength was a notch higher than Jin Xiangs team.

Standing in the center was a tall youth. The leader of the trio and assistant monitor, Liang Zheng. And his combat ability was second only to Lu Qianxun. With his Soul Power at the 19th rank, he was the second most likely Soul Master to reach the 20th rank in the entire class.

Wang Lijian and Chen Yuelin stood to his left and right respectively.

Liang Zheng roared and raised both hands against the incoming spear aura. At the same time, two metallic semi circles formed into a shield.

Wang Lijian and Chen Yuelin immediately retreated behind Liang Zheng.

Ding ding ding ding A series of spear strikes sounded out against Liang Zhengs shield, forcing him back four steps before resolving completely. However, he had still managed to defend against Liu Fengs most ferocious wave of attacks.

It would have been extremely difficult for them to withstand Liu Fengs initial barrage if not for the analyzing and watching of the videos they did of the opposing teams previous battles with the other teams. After all, it was too sudden. But with the videos as a foundation, the three merely had to discuss it and come up with a countermeasure.

Liang Zhengs hand wielded semi-circle chakrams from his martial soul half moon blades, a variant martial soul. The half moon blades were capable of forming a shield when placed together. Separated on both hands, they became extremely large offensive weapons; it could be said that they embodied both offense and defense.

Liang Zheng had a calm and unflustered disposition, and rarely spoke a word in class. Nevertheless, he was also hardworking and performed well in cultivation with only one goal in mind, which was to surpass Lu Qianxun.

His teammates had similar personalities; they hardly revealed their talents in class, but no one ever looked down on them.

After Liang Zhengs successful defense against the attack, Lan Xuanyu immediately followed up in the air. He pushed Liu Feng down to the side. At the same time, he gave Liu Feng another boost from the golden patterned Blue Silver Grass.

Chen Yuelin raised both hands and unleashed green ivy vines that extended out in all directions and dispersed at a rapid speed towards Lan Xuanyu and Liu Feng.

He was a control-type Soul Master with green ivy as his martial soul.

A valiant and curved white bow appeared in Wang Lijians hand at Chen Yuelins side. His first soul ring dazzled as a yellow arrow, which resembled a full moon, appeared on the bow.

Bang! A powerful sound erupted from the bowstring as the arrow was unleashed. It shot through the air and performed a curve straight towards Qian Lei.

They were striking the most important location!

Not good!

Lan Xuanyus heart cried out in alarm.

Being ousted in the arena was naturally not important, but the attack would greatly affect Qian Leis Spiritual Power recovery. It was important to note that Qian Lei was completely immersed in recovering. Being interrupted at such a moment would not only incur a loss in Spiritual Power, but would also cause his mind to fall into disorder, which might result in him being unable to perform.

There was no doubt that the opponents had formulated a plan specially against them. The arrow flew right towards Qian Lei.

Lan Xuanyu chose to forgo all his preparation to attack and turned. He charged quickly towards Qian Lei and congealed an ice awl in his left hand.

His only option to protect Qian Lei was to wait for the arrows descent and to use the ice awl to attack the arrow once it was within his range.

But upon his turn, their initial advantage disappeared as well. Liu Feng hesitated slightly and no longer continued his offense, instead choosing to take the flank and avoid the green vines on the floor.

Wang Lijian, 18th rank. Martial soul: Offensive Moon Bow. First Soul skill: Guided Arrow.

They had retreated but the opponents did not hesitate to take the opportunity. Liang Zheng stepped forward and chased after Lan Xuanyu with his half moon blades. He swung them out while unleashing his first soul ring skill, producing two blades of light that chased after Lan Xuanyu. First soul skill, Lunula Slash!

In front of him was a guidance arrow he had to take care of while behind him was the lunula slash he had to stay vigilant against. This was undoubtedly a difficult spot for Lan Xuanyu. Liu Feng was unable to alter his current situation due to being weaker in the defense department and naturally being suppressed by control type Soul Masters. Chen Yuelin miraculously transformed his vines into a spider web-like net and waited for Liu Feng to fall straight into it.

With ample preparation and their opponents lacking a person, the situation changed.

The guidance arrow descended down. However, Lan Xuanyu remained calm and composed. He was obviously able to hear the attack behind him and could react, but the most important task was saving Qian Lei.

At that point, he knew that he had overlooked a matter: the issue with Qian Leis protection. When the opponents placed Qian Lei as their main target, especially with means of long range attacks, Lan Xuanyus team became extremely passive.

His body flickered and he did not bother to look back. In Liang Zheng and his teams eyes, Lan Xuanyus figure became blurred as it dodged left and right, avoiding the lunula slashes. At the same time, he unleashed the ice awl.

Ding. A clear and crisp sound rang above Qian Leis head. Lan Xuanyu had struck the arrow with absolute accuracy, causing the arrow to fall to the side.

At the same time, Lan Xuanyu suddenly stopped and shouted, Wait.

The trio that was already close behind was startled. They immediately slowed down.

We admit defeat. Lan Xuanyu spoke up without hesitation.

Admit defeat?

Liang Zhengs face relaxed as he stopped in his tracks and nodded towards Lan Xuanyu.

Thats right, they had been too defensive and were dragged into the opponents momentum. Qian Lei had no way of performing a summon while the opponents had long range attacks. This had forced Lan Xuanyu to stay and protect Qian Lei.

The enemy had control, long range, and powerful close range attacks. Despite being extremely coordinated, it was two against three. Their chances of winning had slimmed down considerably. However, with their four consecutive wins, there was no need to force the match. Those were the reasons that Lan Xuanyu chose to admit defeat without hesitation.

In consideration, Liang Zhengs team was one of the strongest in the class, being second only to Lu Qianxuns team in terms of strength. To them, admitting defeat would save their Spiritual power, thus being a better option. Otherwise, forcing the battle would definitely exhaust them a great deal and there was the uncertainty of victory. It was extremely difficult for them to recover the consumption of energy and Spiritual Power from every battle.

When the spectating teachers saw Lan Xuanyus team admit defeat, they heaved sighs of relief.

Had the prodigious team continued to win, it would have been a problem. After all, a team with five consecutive wins would definitely induce a huge blow to the other Elite Junior class students.
