CHAPTER 383: CHAPTER 316: ANNIHILATION IN AN INSTANT

A group of East Blood Rabbits emerged from the forest, their eyes reddened with anger, glaring at the students present.

At first, the students’ eyes still gleamed with eagerness when they saw the East Blood Rabbits.

But as more and more East Blood Rabbits appeared before them, over a hundred students instinctively tightened their formation.

They naturally understood the principle of ants biting an elephant to death.

Right now, there must be thousands of East Blood Rabbits appearing before them.

And that’s not all.

In the distance, the rustling of the forest foliage being blown by the wind made the students as nervous as startled birds.

It seems they have to face more than just a thousand East Blood Rabbits.

Teacher Lu, where did you bring us?

How did so many East Blood Rabbits appear?

"Whoosh."

A robust male rabbit leapt from the ground directly towards a student.

"Ah, no!"

The student was so frightened that they waved their battle knife chaotically.

In the blink of an eye, the rabbit that was charging at them was hacked into a pile of minced meat.

However.

In front of the thousands of East Blood Rabbits already enraged, the death of one rabbit hardly had any significance.

"Whoosh."

"Whoosh whoosh."

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh."

The death of that one rabbit sounded like a horn blowing, inciting countless East Blood Rabbits to launch an attack on the students.

Some leapt from the ground, pouncing on the students’ shoulders, chests.

Others seized the opportunity to stand up cautiously from the ground, grabbing the students’ calves with their teeth.

In an instant, screams echoed around Lu Lin.

Students were continuously getting injured, and some were constantly falling down.

Lu Lin flew over, rescuing the fallen students and shielding them.

Under such terrifying "rabbit tide" attacks, just getting hurt is still manageable, but fearing that students might fall.

By then, if Lu Lin couldn’t see the situation, there was a great possibility that students might die.

He brought the students here for training, for testing, not to get them killed.

"Teacher Lu, Li Chun can’t hold on, please go and save him."

"Wang Gang, Wang Gang, stand up for me."

"Teacher Gao, we beg you, please come and save us."

"Teacher Zhou, we know your knife is fast, please take action."

Students kept screaming in agony, pleading for rescue from Lu Lin and the two deputy class teachers.

But under Lu Lin’s gaze, even though Gao Shu and Zhou Chang were upset by the students’ plight, they didn’t dare to take action.

This was definitely part of Lu Lin’s plan.

If they acted rashly, disrupting Lu Lin’s plan would be minor, but angering Lu Lin would be the real problem.

Lu Lin observed the situation before him and didn’t take action.

When the East Blood Rabbit’s juvenile gathering place served as their camp, Lu Lin had already anticipated this situation would arise.

However, what surprised him was the sheer number of East Blood Rabbits.

Initially, he estimated each student could kill a few, and with the assistance of the teachers and teaching assistants, these East Blood Rabbits would be nothing to worry about.

But now, there were way too many East Blood Rabbits.

The sheer amount made Lu Lin feel somewhat jittery.

More terrifying is now, as students continue to bleed and get injured, as East Blood Rabbits are killed and die, a dense bloody smell is spreading outwards.

He blocked the teachers from taking action to respond to the potential following situation.

As for the students, let them fight a while more.

Right now, they are only facing East Blood Rabbits; if later, they encounter more terrifying, stronger demon beasts, or even in future life threats more dangerous than now, they must also learn to be calm and thoughtful.

"Aargh——"

In the distance, a roar from a demon beast echoed.

Followed by a series of thuds, thuds, thuds, the sound of the beast running fast through the forest.

"A demon beast is coming."

"All teachers and teaching assistants, immediately take action when you see the demon beast."

"Yes!"

Gao Shu and Zhou Chang and others couldn’t hold back any longer.

Lu Lin had forbidden them from helping students; it seems it was all part of this consideration.

To resist even more terrifying demon beasts.

Although East Blood Rabbits were numerous, after the initial panic and chaos, the students started grouping together, forming teams of three or five, regardless of acquaintance or familiarity, at this moment, they were comrades fighting side by side.

Even those injured and rescued by Lu Lin, they gritted their teeth, seemingly oblivious to pain, supporting each other, holding their battle knives, killing with all their might.

Thousands of East Blood Rabbits, though they sounded numerous, only a few hundred could actually attack the students from the front.

Gradually, even without instructions from Lu Lin, the students self-organized.

Those exhausted of Star Power retreated to rest and recover.

The injured checked their injury’s severity.

Those strong in combat took the front line to fend off East Blood Rabbit’s attacks.

When the first Ancient Pine Tiger appeared in everyone’s sight, the students had already managed to organize themselves orderly to resist East Blood Rabbits.

Lu Lin glanced over, nodded in satisfaction.

In the outer area, Gao Shu had already faced off against that Ancient Pine Tiger of the Star Dust Peak.

"Kill!"

Gao Shu swung his knife down.

The Ancient Pine Tiger collapsed in response.

Blood sprayed out from the severed head of the Ancient Pine Tiger, staining Gao Shu’s inner sect disciple attire red.

Yet Gao Shu didn’t flinch and directly faced the hot blood spraying from the Ancient Pine Tiger’s body.

Appearing like a mad demon.

"Students."

"Follow me to kill!"

Gao Shu shouted, and those students who witnessed him slay the Ancient Pine Tiger instantly felt invigorated, their battle knives became even sharper.

Moreover, the Wild Blade Clan had previously conducted specialized training for sect disciples, enabling them to form a united battle formation.

Although these students have not systematically studied, they have learned a lot by staying with their family members and learning by example year after year.

Even though their current formation is not yet tidy.

Even though they still don’t know the specific usages of the joint battle formation.

But as long as they recall the bragging of their fathers and brothers before them, these students immediately become highly motivated.

The Wild Blade Battle Formation is said to have comprised merely ten thousand outer sect disciples back then, yet it could resist a Star Battle Realm strongman head-on, attacking each other without falling behind.

Nowadays, they are merely facing a group of little East Blood Rabbits.

To battle and win, living up to the Wind Chasing Army’s renown.

"Roar."

"Roar."

Following four successive roars, four Butterfly-spotted Phantom Panthers appeared once again from the depths of the jungle.

With bodies covered in butterfly-like spots, the four phantom panthers agilely jumped onto a nearby Great Tree, squinting their eyes as they watched the battle in the clearing.

A great battle between mediocre humans and the monotonous East Blood Rabbits?

Not interesting.

However, among that group of mediocre humans, one person gave them a sense of danger.

Though dangerous, it would certainly be delicious.

Thinking of the humans’ tasty flesh, the four phantom panthers couldn’t help but drool, the drool dripping off their chins onto the tree branch underfoot.

They hardened their resolve.

Fortune favors the brave.

What is some risk if they want to eat humans?

How long has it been since humans last came to the North Scorching Mountain?

Such an opportunity should never be missed.

Just as they were about to jump off the branch to attack Lu Lin, their vision blurred suddenly.

Before they could see who appeared in front of them, a dazzling white knife light flashed.

Zhou Chang, the "Quick Knife Hand."

Just now, faced with the Star Dust stage Ancient Pine Tiger, Zhou Chang, due to positioning issues, didn’t get the upper hand, allowing Gao Shu to bask in the limelight in front of many students.

Now, with tables turned, it’s finally Zhou Chang’s turn to shine.

The Wild Blade Clan’s Intermediate Saber Method, Splashing Wind Knife.

Zhou Chang was already quick in action, and using a set of Splashing Wind Knife made it impossible for the four Butterfly-spotted Phantom Panthers to cope.

Known for their speed, they were unbelievably at a disadvantage.

The speed they were so proud of didn’t seem to be of much help.

No matter where the phantom panther landed, Zhou Chang could get there in the first time.

The key was, he had extensive combat experience, never giving the phantom panthers time to react, nor giving them a chance to retreat from battle or scatter.

The four phantom panthers leaped up and down, dashed left and right, yet couldn’t break through Zhou Chang’s attack range.

Compared to Gao Shu’s one-hit kill technique.

Though Zhou Chang’s attack was not forceful enough, his ultra-fast knife speed made up for this shortcoming.

After fifty strikes, the four phantom panthers were already lightly injured, each having been attacked by Zhou Chang at least three times, some even more than a dozen times.

After a hundred strikes, the four phantom panthers were bleeding profusely and panting heavily.

After one hundred and thirty strikes, the first phantom panther had its throat slashed open by Zhou Chang, dying under the knife.

A hundred and fifty strikes, the second and third phantom panthers died with regret.

Upon seeing the situation going south, the last phantom panther attempted to flee.

But it was this very motion that allowed Zhou Chang to leap high, stabbing through with his knife.

The tragic cries of the Butterfly-spotted Phantom Panther made the students present reflexively tense up.

Yet, more than fear, they felt exhilaration.

As the battle progressed, students were already easily able to fend off the attacks of the East Blood Rabbits, ensuring no one would be injured or fall.

The demon beasts in the vicinity who sensed the scent of blood were also showing up gradually.

At this point, it was Lu Lin’s turn to take the stage.

Gao Shu, Zhou Chang, and Tang Yan, along with other teaching assistants, were persistently fighting.

But with so many demon beasts, they too were stretched thin.

Star Power Domain.

Release.

On the mental level, Lu Lin could see the swaying figures of each one.

Students, teachers, teaching assistants, countless East Blood Rabbits, and those powerful demon beasts.

"All of you, come in."

With a wave of Lu Lin’s hand, a burst of dazzling light erupted from the Black and White Golden Pill in the Consciousness Universe.

Those demon beasts hardly had any chance to resist before being dragged into the Star Power Domain by Lu Lin.

Time Stop.

Thousand Knives and Ten Thousand Cuts.

Ice and Fire World.

Lu Lin went all out, and in just moments in the Star Power Domain, the spiritual bodies of those demon beasts turned to dust.

Their bodies in reality fell straight down, as if drunk.

"Kill!"

One student, with depleted Star Power, planned to kill one more East Blood Rabbit before retreating for rest and recovery.

Just as he swung his knife, the East Blood Rabbit fell to the ground.

Knife Aura?

Could he have comprehended Knife Aura amidst battle?

It’s said that there’s great terror and great opportunity in life-and-death encounters.

Knife Aura, which could normally be comprehended only at Star Universe Peak, he unexpectedly understood ahead of time.

The student almost laughed out loud in happiness.

If that was so, then going out to test with Lu Lin this time was truly worthwhile.

However, when he turned to share his feelings with his classmates, he saw the East Blood Rabbits, who had just been lively, and the terrifying demon beasts bearing their teeth at a distance, now all lay stiffly on the ground.

Motionless.

As if dead.

No, not as if; they were truly dead.

Who made the move to kill so many demon beasts in one instant?

They were killed silently.
