Ranked second on the fifth-grade students' ranking list, they are likely quite powerful in the later stages of Great Liang.

If the opponent suddenly makes a move, it seems only I will successfully be able to run away.

Shi Ji, Nezha, and Zhao Gongming are all facing difficulties.

"Then I'll go check out that building."

After seeing Jiang Yuan nod his head, Ai Xiu looked around and suddenly said to Jiang Yuan.

Jiang Yuan found it strange, but he didn't pay much attention and nodded his head again to agree.

However, what he didn't notice was the glint in Ai Xiu's eyes after she turned her head.

"Let's check out a few buildings around this area."

Having reverted back to Zhao Gongming's form, Golden Winged Great Peng, Jiang Yuan and Nezha took the building below, while Zhao Gongming and Shi Ji went to the adjacent two buildings to look for a covert and suitable resting place.

Though Jiang Yuan's survival skills aren't bad, his combat power is too garbage; he still needs someone to accompany him.

Shi Ji's individual combat power isn't strong, and while Zhao Gongming's attack power is sufficient, his defense doesn't match Nezha's abundance of treasures.

Therefore, sticking with Nezha is actually the best option.

Zhao Gongming and Shi Ji nodded then jumped off the building, heading toward their respective targets.

Watching this scene, Jiang Yuan let out a slight sigh: "After this four-academy joint examination is over, it's time to prepare a Mount Card for the two of them."

Zhao Gongming is easy to deal with, having Black Tiger as a mount.

But Shi Ji is not so good; there are hardly a few of the enslaved Undead that could qualify as decent mounts.

There are also their other weapons, and Nezha's other weapons.

More importantly, the crafting of the fourth Summoning Card.

I feel like there's never a dull moment, not enough time!

Why don't I have a system, one that can craft cards with one click, or through which I can see the success rate of card crafting by analyzing the materials.

If I had such a system, I wouldn't have failed so many times, wasting so much time.

What a pity.

Jiang Yuan shook his head slightly and was just about to go downstairs with Nezha when he suddenly caught sight of a figure not far away in the corner of his eye.

"Nezha, prepare for battle!"

Jiang Yuan cried out lowly, and then quickly bent down, trying to conceal himself.

"Ambush them, then use the aftermath of the battle to attract the attention of Zhao Gongming and the others to see if they can be killed; if not, retreat!"

Jiang Yuan tensed up, as basically all who could survive until this point were significant forces of Great Liang.

It's just unknown if the opponent was in Great Liang's late stage or mid-stage.

In his tension, Jiang Yuan subconsciously ignored the existence of a senior student from his own Classmate Mansion.

Ai Xiu, ranked second on the fifth-grade students' ranking list of Zhongyuan Academy!

"Alright!"

Nezha nodded, drew the Qiankun Bow without hesitation, and took out the Sky Shattering Arrow, fitting it onto the bowstring.

"Whoosh!"

In the blink of an eye, a streak of light shot down at the person sprinting down on the street below.

Ma Zhengwu, while looking for a place to hide, suddenly heard a sharp noise—was that the sound of a Bow and Arrow?

The double Defense Equipment on his body activated as his head was just processing it.

An Energy Barrier, a close-fitting armor!

However, the incoming Arrow pierced through the Energy Barrier as if it didn't exist and struck his close-fitting armor.

"Crack!"

The Purple Quality close-fitting armor shattered, and the glow of his Purple Quality Defense Equipment dimmed under this attack.

Defense Equipment destroyed!

Ma Zhengwu's scalp tightened, and while a Purple Quality Card appeared in his hand, he also surveyed his surroundings for cover.

Before he could find cover, the next attack was already upon him.

The Purple Quality Card in Ma Zhengwu's hand shimmered as his speed increased, and he immediately pounced to one side, attempting to dodge the attack.

What he did not expect was that the Arrow had a tracking feature, changing direction and targeting him again.

Sky Shattering Arrow Skill "Lock-on": If the target's spiritual power is lower than the attacker's, it's a Guaranteed Hit!

"I didn't expect it, a tracking arrow?"

Ai Xiu, who was not far away watching the scene, was somewhat surprised and looked up at Nezha.

"An archer after all, that's quite interesting."

Ai Xiu smiled and turned her gaze back to Zhao Gongming, who had appeared on another building.

At this moment, Zhao Gongming also had a bow formed by lightning in his hand and was already drawing the bow and aiming an arrow at the person Nezha had just attacked.

Ma Zhengwu had not died under the second arrow of the Sky Shattering Arrow.

Because of a Purple Quality card.

Golden Dance!

When using this Skill Card, a golden stick appears in your hand, and by twirling it in front of you, it has a hundred percent chance to destroy attacks with flying effects of the same rank and strength.

The probability decreases as the strength gap increases.

Jiang Yuan is at the late-stage power of the Jianglu, while Ma Zhengwu is at mid-stage power of Great Liang, so naturally, he could block it a hundred percent.

However, before he could take a breath, the third arrow was shot at him again.

It wasn't Zhao Gongming's Instant Flash, as Ma Zhengwu's pounce had put him into Zhao Gongming's attack blind spot just now.

But it did not put him in Nezha's blind spot for the attack, which led to the firing of the third Sky Shattering Arrow.

At the same time, Ma Zhengwu looked up and saw Nezha.

Late-stage power of Jianglu?

Seeing Nezha for a moment, Ma Zhengwu was stunned, but it was immediately followed by rage.

Just a late-stage Jianglu fellow dares to attack me actively!

Looking for death?

Ma Zhengwu's anger surged, and two Purple Quality cards shone in his hand once again.

But as the Purple Quality cards appeared in his hand, the third arrow from Nezha was shot at him again.

Ma Zhengwu sneered. You caught me off guard with your sneak attack just now, but now I'm prepared. You, just a late-stage Jianglu fellow, will die here!

Who made you provoke the wrong person with your bad eyes!

Ai Xiu, on the other side, was watching this scene, ready to lend a helping hand at any time.

This is a lifesaving grace; it will be much easier to put forward conditions later.

Ai Xiu smiled slightly. Having mid-stage power of Great Liang was quite good; wait and show Jiang Yuan a Heavenly God descending!

What a pity, Jiang Yuan is not a girl; otherwise, my heroic rescue would lead to a commitment of gratitude, wouldn't it be a beautiful story?

Ai Xiu felt somewhat disappointed when he saw a surprising scene.

Ma Zhengwu used two Purple Quality cards, both offense and defense, at the same time.

Octagonal Crystal Barrier!

Black Dragon Impact Flame

With the release of the skill, a giant octagonal crystal formed of many small octagonal purple crystals appeared in midair, blocking Ma Zhengwu's body.

There was also an Eastern Dragon formed of black flames in front of the purple crystal barrier, roaring as it flew towards Nezha.

However, the Sky Shattering Arrow was unaffected and directly pierced through the body of the dragon formed by black flames upon collision, without any impact.

Ma Zhengwu panicked when he saw this, remembering how the Purple Quality Defense Equipment's energy defense on his body had been penetrated just now.

But before he could react, the metal arrow hit the octagonal purple crystal defense barrier he had released.

Ma Zhengwu felt a trace of relief; it was good that he had made dual preparations.

One offense and one defense; if the skills do not collide with each other, they can also defend against the opponent's attack.

But before he could fully relax, he saw the metal arrow shot as if from another dimension, completely unaffected by his defense barrier, penetrating through the purple crystal.

"Ptui!"

A mouthful of blood, and then Ma Zhengwu turned into a shadow and disappeared.

Sky Shattering Arrow Skill [Guaranteed Hit]: If the third Sky Shattering Arrow hits and the user's strength is greater than the opponent's, it's a guaranteed kill!

Obviously, the other party was a Skill Card Master, inherently not strength-based, but Nezha not only had Three Heads and Eight Arms activated but also received the empowerment of Lotus Embodiment and the attack power of the three Sky Shattering Arrows was doubled.

Guaranteed kill!

However, though Ma Zhengwu died, his attack was still flying towards Nezha and Jiang Yuan.
