Chapter 26 Time Looking Back
Chapter 26 Time Looking Back
Wang Mian lightly tapped his fingertip, drawing his straight sword. With a powerful swing, a terrifying blade aura whistled towards Li Jie.
Seeing their captain make the first move, the members of [Masked] also flew forward without hesitation.
However, their movements were not as agile as before under the oppressive power of [The World Loses Its Color].
When Shen Qingzhu and Baili Pangpang saw the Masked Squad rushing forward, they rolled up their sleeves and were about to go and help.
Lin Qiye stepped forward and stopped them.
Shen Qingzhu asked, puzzled.
"What are you doing? Can't you see your brother is being beaten up by a group of people?"
This behavior made Zhai Ge somewhat disdainful. How could he betray his own brothers in a time of crisis?
Upon hearing Shen Qingzhu's question, Lin Qiye also spoke up to explain.
“We were more of a hindrance than a help in the past.”
These words made the already skeptical crowd even more curious about Li Jie's abilities.
"We came from a small team. If we needed help, do you think I'd still be standing here?"
"I won't go there for only one reason: it's unnecessary."
Molly, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but ask.
"That's the entire Masked Squad! Even if they've suppressed their cultivation levels, they're still a special team that's been training together for many years. No one person can withstand them!"
Lin Qiye thought about it for a while, but felt that it would be too complicated to explain. When he saw Cao Yuan, who had returned to normal, walking over, he suddenly thought that he might be able to explain it this way.
"Just think of it this way: when my brother Li makes a move, he doesn't distinguish between friend and foe. Standing behind him is the safest place."
"Can't distinguish friend from foe?" Everyone looked at Cao Yuan with curiosity. Could it be that Li Jie's Forbidden Ruins was also 031 like his? Only it was a growth type?
its not right......
Misled by Lin Qiye, everyone quickly forgot about helping and began frantically guessing which forbidden realm Li Jie possessed.
Soon, they understood why Lin Qiye hadn't let them make a move.
Seeing the members of the Masked Swords closing in from tricky angles, Li Jie held the Han Guang sword horizontally. True Qi surged from his dantian, and a pale blue sword intent instantly rose, enveloping the invisible sword.
The originally thin and invisible sword blade became even more dazzling after being enveloped by the sword intent of "Two Green Snakes in Two Sleeves".
In the entire world, only the three-foot-long sword in Li Jie's hand possessed an extremely sharp brilliance.
When the members of the "Masked" group were about to reach Li Jie, he moved.
The sword intent accumulated above [Han Guang] surged forth.
Clang!
A soft sword hum emanated from Li Jie's hand.
Whether this attack was a restraint or a test, Li Jie only used three-tenths of his strength. Although he was very dissatisfied with the behavior of the "Masked" group, they were, after all, instructed by Instructor Yuan, so he had to give them some face.
The longsword slashed horizontally, unleashing a torrent of sword energy. When the masked men were unable to dodge in time, they were struck by the sword energy.
A sense of foreboding rose in Wang Mian's heart.
He sensed that Li Jie's sword strike might kill one of them...
When Rose, who was leading the charge, was struck by the sword energy, it further confirmed Wang Mian's idea.
Her hands, which were holding the giant hammer, gradually separated from her body under the influence of the sword energy.
Seeing this, Wang Mian no longer held back and directly restored his cultivation level to its peak.
He unleashed the Divine Ruins and activated Time Reversal.
Everyone present returned to their pre-attack state.
Rose stared blankly at her hands. Just a moment ago, she had clearly felt the pain in her arms.
If the captain hadn't reversed time in time, then I might have...
When Li Jie sensed that Wang Mian had used all his strength, he withdrew [The World Loses Its Color].
He was still self-aware enough to know that if the king used all his strength, he definitely couldn't beat him.
Looking around at the restored normal environment, none of the people present could quite figure out what had happened.
Finished playing?
Lin Qiye took a deep look at Wang Mian, who was standing in the middle of the [Masked] team.
Is this the power that the God of Time could bestow upon him after he grew up...?
An agent of the God of Time? Not so great after all...
Li Jie tucked the [Han Guang] back into his waistband, stretched, and then turned and walked back to Lin Qiye and the others.
Baili Pangpang asked, bewildered.
"Brother Lei, is this... over?"
Li Jie nodded.
"The fight is over. Wang Mian broke the rules, but I didn't remove his mask either, so it's a draw."
Upon hearing that it was a draw, everyone except Lin Qiye gathered around.
Molly spoke first.
"That's amazing? They were evenly matched against the entire [Masked] team?"
Immediately afterwards, Shen Qingzhu also asked in confusion.
"How did you guys fight? I don't think you even moved..."
Li Jie shook his head without explaining.
Perhaps only Lin Qiye among them clearly sensed what had happened.
It seems that Brother Li almost dismembered that woman with the rose mask.
Wang Mian watched Li Jie's departing figure and sighed softly.
That's outrageous...
If she hadn't sensed the danger beforehand, Rose might have really been killed...
Is this really a new recruit?
If Wang Mian knew that Li Jie had severed the head of the Ghost-Faced King of the 'Chuan' Realm, he probably wouldn't think this way.
It's normal for someone who can kill someone in the 'Chuan' realm to kill someone in the 'Chi' realm, well, quite normal.
It was already 9 p.m.
When the bell rang, both sides knew that the trial was over.
Yuan Gang strode steadily to the center of the dormitory building. He glanced at the silent "Masked" standing to one side, then at Li Jie and the others who were having a lively discussion, and sighed inwardly.
It seems we underestimated them.
Yuan Gang had a clear view of what was happening on the battlefield through the drone's real-time broadcast.
Li Jie unleashed a sword strike from the Forbidden Ruins, nearly killing Rose of the Masked Ones. Wang Mian broke the rules and forcibly reversed time, saving Rose.
This confrontation ended abruptly.
If you want to say the recruits won, it's because they didn't take off their masks.
If we're talking about who won, they all improved to a higher level, and what's even more outrageous is that King Mask actually improved to his peak.
This victory is anything but honorable.
For a moment, he didn't know what to do.
Sensing Yuan Gang's arrival, Li Jie and the others stopped their discussion, seeing him hesitant and unsure of what to do.
Li Jie walked up to him and gave him a solution.
"Instructor Yuan, we can lose, but... you have to give us satisfactory compensation."
Can we admit defeat? Will compensation suffice?
That's great! It will save me so much trouble!
"Tell me, how are you going to get compensation?"
Upon hearing Chief Instructor Yuan's subtle shift in perspective, Li Jie shook his head, pointing at Lin Qiye and the others while drawing circles, and said to him.
"No, it's not just for me, it's compensation for us. We don't need much, just one forbidden item each."
