124: The last level, Lin Xiu!

On the hillside, the surrounding senior students fell into a dead silence when they saw that the person who was sent flying was Luo Hou.

“Head-on clash, Luo Hou actually lost?”

“What do you know? That Fighting Skill just now could stir the energy of heaven and earth, which only Di-Rank Dou Technique can do.”

“He’s too much of a Prodigy. What can the White Fiends Team use to stop a freshman like this? There’s no chance!”

“Don’t speak so absolutely. Haven’t you seen that Lin Xiu hasn’t made a move yet?”

“Him? He’s not moving at all. From what I see, he hasn’t been scared silly, has he?”

As Luo Hou’s head-on combat failed, the White Fiends Team’s advantage was completely gone.

Although the four White Fiends Team members were all very strong, facing dozens of freshmen, the pressure was still very great.

After Xun'er and Hu Jia were sent flying by Luo Hou, they stabilized themselves and went to deal with the White Fiends Team members.

At present, two members had already been injured and lost their combat ability.

“Luo Hou is talking to Lin Xiu. He seems to be discussing something with Lin Xiu.”

Leng Bai pointed below.

Lin Xiu said something, and a flash of anger suddenly crossed Luo Hou’s face. Then, he picked up his staff, leaped up, and charged towards Xiao Yan again.

“The White Fiends Team has already taken the initiative to make concessions, but Lin Xiu doesn’t seem to accept it. He should have seen Xiao Yan’s strength as well, so why does he still look so indifferent?”

Su Xiao was a bit confused.

In his impression, Lin Xiu’s fighting style was more inclined to be clean and decisive, using his powerful physique to crush his opponents head-on.

But the problem was that there were many freshmen now.

No matter how strong Lin Xiu was, he was still just one person. Once entangled and pulled, he would quickly become like a person trapped in a quagmire, unable to extricate himself.

What’s more, Xiao Yan’s offensive was powerful, and he also had a troublesome flame.

Leng Bai shook his head; he couldn’t guess either.

However, according to the previous Fire Energy Hunting Competition, Lin Xiu had always been very well-planned in his actions.

Now that Lin Xiu was delaying his move, he was probably waiting for the White Fiends Team’s Fire Energy to be collected by the freshmen.

“Not only does he have an Otherworldly Flame, but he also has a Di-Rank Dou Technique.”

Elder Qing showed a surprised expression.

Otherworldly Flames were already difficult to deal with, and now he had improved his strength with a secret method and also mastered a Di-Rank Dou Technique.

Even without the help of the freshmen, Xiao Yan had a great chance to deal with the White Fiends Team.

“This Fire Energy Hunting Competition, the freshmen won again, Elder Hu, what do you think?”

Elder Su turned his head and asked.

“I also have a good opinion of Xiao Yan.”

After a slight contemplation, Hu Qian, after thinking it over, gave his opinion.

Although Lin Xiu had great strength, he would certainly be constrained when facing an Otherworldly Flame.

If he couldn’t deal with this hidden danger, it would be difficult to win.

Furthermore, Hu Qian knew one more thing than the two Elders, which was that Xiao Yan still had a trump card he hadn’t used.

That was the flame lotus he had thrown out during the Inner Courtyard Selection Competition.

The power of that Fighting Skill, even if a Great Fighter used it, would be enough to rival the attack of a six or seven-star Dou Ling.

It was amidst their conversation that Luo Hou was once again sent flying by Xiao Yan.

This time, after falling to the ground, he didn’t get up as easily as the previous times.

“The White Fiends Team lost!”

“We defeated the White Fiends Team!”

“The Fire Energy is saved! Everyone, the Fire Energy is saved!”

The remaining team members successively fell, and the freshmen all stopped, staring blankly at their surroundings.

As the final hurdle, the White Fiends Team’s strength was beyond doubt, and to defeat them, the freshmen also paid a price.

More than a dozen freshmen could only stand steadily by relying on their companions’ support.

“Everyone, don’t rush. Let’s collect their Fire Energy first.”

Xiao Yan’s prestige was high at this moment, and the freshmen immediately quieted down.

Just then, three figures suddenly rushed out from the crowd and ran towards the young man sitting on the rock.

“Brother Xiu!”

“Lin Xiu!”

Lin Dun, Han Pu, and Qin Zhi, the three of them excitedly ran towards Lin Xiu.

In the Outer Academy, their relationship was very close.

They couldn’t bring themselves to team up with others to deal with Lin Xiu.

Therefore, at the final moment of facing Lin Xiu, the three chose to leave the team.

The remaining freshmen seemed to be startled, first stunned, then their gazes all turned to Lin Xiu, who was sitting cross-legged on the rock.

“There’s still one more, brothers!”

“Stay calm, don’t panic. We’ve gone through so many hurdles, and with so many of us, can we still be bullied by just one person?”

“That’s Lin Xiu! In the last Inner Courtyard Selection Competition, if the dean hadn’t changed the rules, he almost single-handedly occupied the top five spots!”

Those who could participate in the Inner Courtyard Selection Competition had generally stayed in the academy for a period of time, and some even witnessed Lin Xiu defending the arena, fighting more than ten people consecutively.

“Brother Xiao Yan, last year, when he was a One-Star Great Fighter, he could fight against a four-star Great Fighter, and he fought more than ten battles consecutively without his Dou Qi depleting. His strength should not be underestimated. I guess the Cultivation Technique he Cultivates is at least Earth Rank.”

Xun'er walked to Xiao Yan’s side, reminding him with a stream of words.

But she still got no response. A strange expression appeared on her face, and she turned her head to look at Xiao Yan beside her.

Suddenly, Xun'er was stunned.

She saw that when Xiao Yan’s gaze met Lin Xiu, it was as if he was firmly captivated.

She had never felt such focused and serious eyes from Brother Xiao Yan.

“Brother Xiao Yan?”

Xun'er called twice and then pushed Xiao Yan’s shoulder with her hand.

“Ah? Xun'er, what did you just say?”

Xiao Yan came back to his senses, his shocked expression hard to hide.

It was him!

How could it be him?!

Previously, his attention had been on the White Fiends Team, and Xiao Yan hadn’t noticed.

Until the White Fiends Team was dealt with.

But now, with a glance, a storm surged in his heart.

This was a Dou King! How could I win? There are Elders around, so I can’t borrow my teacher’s power!

What’s more, he has a way to deal with Otherworldly Flames.

Even his teacher’s Bone Chilling Flame, ranked eleventh, couldn’t do anything to him, so why would his Azure Lotus Core Flame be able to threaten him?

Thinking of this, a bitter taste rose in Xiao Yan’s mouth. He looked at Xun'er, smiled bitterly, “Xun'er, this Fire Energy Hunting Competition, we lost.”

“How could that be, Brother Xiao Yan? We haven’t even started fighting yet. Lin Xiu is just one person. You have me, and Hu Jia, Wu Hao, and so many classmates.”

Xun'er was greatly alarmed and said quickly.

Could it be that Brother Xiao Yan and Lin Xiu had met before? Or even fought?

Otherwise, why would Brother Xiao Yan look so defeated after just one glance at him?

“Xiao Yan, all the White Fiends Team’s Fire Energy is here. There’s only Lin Xiu left. If we defeat him, we can take all the Fire Energy!”

Hu Jia handed the Fire Crystal Card to Xiao Yan, finding that he was stunned and didn’t take it.

With a bewildered and questioning look, she cast her gaze towards Xun'er beside her, “What’s wrong with him? Is he possessed?”

“It’s nothing, Hu Jia. Gather everyone who still has the strength to fight, and have them all come over.”

Xun'er shook her head, not answering, but instead instructed her differently.

“It’s just Lin Xiu left, is that really necessary?”

Hu Jia’s red lips parted slightly, a little astonished. Besides, what good would it do for others to face Lin Xiu anyway?

Lin Xiu could probably knock down several with one punch.

“Just go and do it.”

Xun'er didn’t explain. Seeing Hu Jia walk away, she took Xiao Yan’s hand, “Brother Xiao Yan.”

Xiao Yan looked at her.

“No matter what it is, we can face it together. I don’t know what happened between you and Lin Xiu, but what I know now is that Lin Xiu is just one person, just a One-Star Dou Ling. We still have a chance! You are not alone; I can help you, Brother Xiao Yan!”

Xun'er’s expression was exceptionally serious.
