There are only two hours left until the start of a new week. Brothers and sisters, let's work hard next week. I am currently in eighth place, and I want to improve! Those who are still awake past midnight, please vote more! Thank you! Thank you again!
At this moment, the advantages of the Inner Hall disciples became evident. The lowest cultivation level among the Inner Hall disciples was the first stage of the Qi Condensation realm. Only disciples at the Qi Condensation stage could release spells, while the Outer Hall disciples, no matter how many layers they had cultivated, even if they reached the peak of the twelfth layer of the Later Heaven realm, could not release any spells at all.
Therefore, when the Inner Hall disciples reacted, they immediately released various spells, blocking most of the beasts, leaving only five for the Outer Hall disciples.
At this time, Xu Ziyang had also returned to the side of the Outer Hall disciples. She did not want to show her strength in front of the Inner Hall disciples, and besides, she was not at ease with the Outer Hall disciples. She hoped that with her presence, their casualties could be reduced.
Sure enough, when the remaining nine Outer Hall disciples rushed towards the beasts, they, who had never encountered beasts before, were flustered and did not coordinate with each other. They only knew how to swing their long swords wildly at the beasts.
Moreover, these new disciples not only lacked coordination but also had no self-protection awareness. The training they had received in their families had long been overshadowed by their excitement. As Xu Ziyang ran over from a distance, she saw Xu Tienuo being slapped away by a beast, his body flying towards her.
Xu Ziyang quickly extended a hand to catch Xu Tienuo, seeing that a piece of flesh had been torn from his shoulder, leaving it bloody. The other new disciples, seeing Xu Tienuo's condition, were immediately frightened and became hesitant, completely different from their earlier aggressive charge. This made them no longer a threat to the beasts, allowing the five beasts to attack them freely, putting them at a complete disadvantage.
Seeing someone else get injured, Xu Ziyang could no longer take care of Xu Tienuo. She put him down and leaped towards Xu Li. At that moment, a Swift Wind Wolf had just knocked Xu Li's sword away with a claw, baring its fangs and lunging at her throat. Xu Li's sword had been completely knocked away, leaving her defenseless. As the Swift Wind Wolf's massive mouth rapidly grew larger in front of her, Xu Li's heart turned cold, and she closed her eyes in despair.
Suddenly, a piercing cold wind brushed past Xu Li's neck, and a long sword suddenly appeared beside her, swift as lightning, piercing the Swift Wind Wolf's throat.
Xu Ziyang knew that Xu Li was not injured, and given the critical situation, she did not bother with the still-closed-eyed Xu Li. She quickly pulled out the sword and leaped towards another beast, shouting loudly:
"Don't just defend, form an array!"
"Whoosh~"
A jet of blood spurted from the Swift Wind Wolf's throat, splattering Xu Li's face.
"Ah~"
Xu Li screamed in confusion, but the new disciples who heard Xu Ziyang's shout immediately felt more confident and reacted quickly. They quickly formed an array and began to coordinate with each other.
Once the seven new disciples began to coordinate, they quickly gained the upper hand against the four beasts. When Xu Ziyang joined them, the four beasts were no match. Soon, under Xu Ziyang's leadership, they killed the four beasts. The seven new disciples, looking at the four dead beasts on the ground, fell silent for a moment before suddenly jumping up in joy, cheering loudly.
At this moment, Xu Li, who had just come to her senses from the shadow of death, also ran over. Xu Tienuo, living up to his name, though seriously injured in his left shoulder, had bandaged himself and also ran over to celebrate.
However, Xu Ziyang did not join in their celebration. She turned her gaze to the Inner Hall disciples. The Inner Hall disciples had only let five beasts through, blocking more than forty. Although they were at the Qi Condensation stage, each had to face more than four beasts, which was a very strenuous task.
Although they had killed a few beasts, they were also heavily exhausted and gradually showing signs of fatigue. Xu Ziyang immediately shouted to the new disciples beside her:
"Form an array!"
The nine new disciples, though puzzled as to why they needed to form an array when there were no more beasts, obediently formed the array and looked at Xu Ziyang. Xu Ziyang, seeing that the disciples had quickly formed the array, nodded in satisfaction and turned to shout loudly to the Inner Hall disciples:
"Inner Hall seniors, let five more beasts through."
The Inner Hall disciples, who had been highly focused on fighting the beasts, did not know that the Outer Hall disciples had already killed the five beasts. Hearing Xu Ziyang's shout, they quickly looked back. When they saw that the Outer Hall disciples had killed the five beasts so quickly, they were both surprised and delighted. At this moment, they were feeling the increasing pressure from the beasts. Seeing this, someone excitedly shouted:
"Outer Hall brothers, well done!"
"Our Outer Hall sisters are also well done!"
Xu Li shouted loudly to the Inner Hall disciples, who laughed heartily:
"Right! The sisters are even better!"
With the help of the Outer Hall disciples, the Inner Hall disciples felt much more at ease. Xu Jin, the leader of the Inner Hall disciples, shouted loudly:
"Outer Hall brothers, be careful, we're letting the beasts through."
As he spoke, the Inner Hall disciples' tightly guarded formation opened a gap, and five more beasts rushed out fiercely.
"Go!"
Xu Ziyang shouted, and the Outer Hall disciples sprang into action, quickly trapping the five beasts in the array. With the experience from the previous battle, they were more proficient this time. Moreover, there were nine of them, and Xu Ziyang joined from the start. Although she controlled her cultivation to the eighth layer of the Later Heaven realm, her attack power was far beyond that of the eighth layer. In a short time, the five beasts were killed one after another.
This time, without waiting for Xu Ziyang to speak, Xu Li proudly shouted to the Inner Hall disciples:
"Inner Hall seniors, let five more beasts through!"
The Inner Hall disciples were startled, thinking, "No way, the Outer Hall disciples are so fierce, they killed five beasts so quickly." But when they turned to see the five dead beasts on the ground, they were even more shocked.
"Release!"
Xu Jin shouted, and five more beasts were released. After closing the gap, he shouted loudly:
"Inner Hall brothers, work harder, don't be outdone by the Outer Hall brothers."
