"Tsk tsk tsk, how scared have these little brats from Qing Campus become? They've actually all united to target Cheng Xiao alone."
Professor Shi, watching the battlefield from afar, shook his head helplessly.
"Heh heh, it's not like you don't know Cheng Xiao's performance. He defeated over three thousand new students by himself, and he didn't even use his full strength."
"Old Shi, your Undead Element department has produced a genius with the potential for a Forbidden Curse this year!"
"Our Undead Element department has been lacking for so long, this is what we deserve."
...
Dean Xiao looked at the distant battlefield and also shook his head helplessly.
The shadow Cheng Xiao cast over the entire Qing Campus was too great, especially for the new students he defeated!
Even the senior students of Qing Campus didn't believe they had any chance of winning against Cheng Xiao.
So, the senior and new students simply joined forces, targeting only Cheng Xiao.
Once this big BOSS was dealt with, the rest could compete based on their own abilities.
"These thousands of Qing Campus students are all Intermediate-level mages, far from comparable to those three thousand-plus new students. I don't know if Cheng Xiao can handle it."
A tutor couldn't help but say.
"Cheng Xiao is almost at their ambush point. Activate the Night Dominion Array immediately."
Dean Xiao's expression was serious.
The tutors present also understood what Dean Xiao meant.
If it were just a competition among a thousand Intermediate-level mages, it would be fine.
But a thousand Intermediate-level mages gathered in one place, targeting one person, that was no joke!
The Night Dominion Array could suppress the power of the participating students in this area, ensuring there wouldn't be large casualties.
......
"Hmm?"
Cheng Xiao looked up in confusion, gazing at the sudden appearance of night overhead.
"It's the Night Dominion Array. It must have been set up by the school specifically to avoid casualties and suppress our power," Mu Nujiao said.
Hearing this, Cheng Xiao raised his hand and simply sensed it.
The Night Dominion Array suppressed his Dimensional magic, but it couldn't suppress his Black magic.
Of course, including the Shadow Soldiers, they were also not suppressed.
Cheng Xiao pursed his lips, holding back a smile.
These Qing Campus students were already having a tough time, and the school was adding more difficulty for them.
"It looks like there's an ambush."
Ding Yumeng pushed Xin Xia, her eyes flashing with dark red light as she scanned their surroundings.
"Don't be afraid, I'll handle it later," Cheng Xiao said.
Ding Yumeng, Ye Xin Xia, Ai Tutu, and Mu Nujiao understood what Cheng Xiao meant.
Translated, it was:
Lie down, and just type 666 on the side.
They continued forward.
After advancing about another three hundred meters, Cheng Xiao stopped and shouted towards the hidden figures:
"I'm completely surrounded by you now, aren't you going to show yourselves?"
All around, the figures that had been stirring began to waver.
"Did this guy find us already? Since he knows we're all here, why is he walking into the trap?"
"Even if he knows, can he know that over a thousand of us are lying in ambush nearby?"
"We must teach him a lesson this time, he's too arrogant."
...
After being discovered, everyone simply stopped pretending and revealed themselves.
Figures appeared from all directions around Cheng Xiao and his companions, with the Shadow Beasts at the center.
In trees, in the jungle, behind slopes, in the mud...
Looking around, there were hundreds visible alone.
There were even more students waiting for an opportunity behind them, completely surrounding Cheng Xiao and his group.
"So, so many people!" Ai Tutu shivered.
Even Mu Nujiao and Ding Yumeng were wary at this moment, entering a combat state.
To be targeted by the entire Qing Campus and have such a grand display, Cheng Xiao was probably the only one.
And they just happened to be standing with Cheng Xiao.
"Cheng Xiao, you've incurred public wrath, so don't blame us for joining forces to crusade against you, this demon!" Han Luo, standing in a tree, sneered.
"Han Luo, it's agreed, what's inside the Shadow Beasts' belly belongs to you, and the Shadow Beasts belong to us!"
"Naturally!"
...
Cheng Xiao frowned and said, "What's inside the Shadow Beasts' belly is something I obtained by completing the mission in Bo City. You want to claim it for yourself?"
In fact, the thing inside the Shadow Beasts' belly was just a smokescreen he released.
Anyway, he didn't specify what it was, letting the Black Vatican people guess wildly, as long as it could lure the prey.
With his identity as the Hero of Bo City, even if the Earth Sacred Spring wasn't on Cheng Xiao, just releasing a smokescreen was enough.
The Black Vatican, even at the risk of exposing their identity, would have to cut open the Shadow Beasts' belly to look.
Because this was their only chance.
(Original text is being read!)
Things developed just as Cheng Xiao expected; the fish took the bait directly.
The reckoning had officially begun...
"Hmph! Enough nonsense, brothers, attack!"
Han Luo utterly detested Cheng Xiao, and this opportunity was perfect for him to seize the advantage.
Not only could he gain favor with that cleric, but he could also, in the name of a crusade, summon all the students from the entire Qing Campus to target Cheng Xiao.
It was truly killing two birds with one stone...
"So many of you attacking just a few of us, how shameless! Despicable!" Ai Tutu cursed angrily.
"What should we do now?"
Mu Nujiao also couldn't help but feel nervous.
Facing an encirclement by so many people, she was already prepared to be eliminated.
"Nujiao, it's still not too late for you to leave his side now.
Don't get implicated because of him."
Han Luo, thinking he was being friendly, extended a helping hand towards Mu Nujiao.
Mu Nujiao's response was just one cold word:
"Scram!"
Han Luo's face froze, then twisted into a ferocious expression.
Damn it, this woman who doesn't know what's good for her!
Since she likes Cheng Xiao so much, then let her die with him!
"Thunderbolt - Sky-Shattering!"
"Blazing Fist - Heaven-Shattering!"
"Ice Lock - Chain Spikes!"
"Wind Disc - Tornado!"
"Violent Wave - Expel!"
Over a hundred Intermediate-level spells appeared simultaneously.
Even with their power suppressed by the Night Dominion, they were still terrifying!
But strangely, these hundred-plus Intermediate-level spells didn't trigger a terrifying bombardment.
The elements had taken shape, but they seemed to be frozen, appearing as different colors floating around Cheng Xiao and his companions.
Dominator's Hand!
Silver light appeared in Cheng Xiao's eyes.
He controlled absolute Dimensional power, suppressing the elemental power around him.
"I originally just wanted to simply reel in the fish I caught...
Since you've all appeared here, that means you're prepared to be eliminated."
The silver light in Cheng Xiao's eyes was replaced by a strange, deep darkness.
He softly uttered a King's command:
"Stand up!"
Countless strange black smokes instantly drilled out from the ground, which was already darkened by the Night Dominion.
Then, the chilling aura representing darkness and death descended.
What appeared next was Cheng Xiao's Shadow Legion!
Shadow Soldiers crawled out from the ground where the black smoke emerged.
One...
Five...
Ten...
Twenty...
Thirty...
A hundred!
Looking at the hundred Shadow Soldiers appearing around Cheng Xiao.
All the Qing Campus students who participated in this crusade finally realized how foolish they were...
