A group of students stood on the edge of the slope and looked down.
"It's they're not gonna die, are they?" One of the students swallowed.
"I doubt so. Not too high up here, "the other students answered with a guilty conscience.
"What are you afraid of? They did not see our faces clearly. Even if something happens, they are unlikely to find us. "
"Absolutely. They jumped in on their own, and what does that have to do with us? "
"Better this way. I do not believe that they will have the strength to climb back up or continue the exam after that fall. They would probably destroy their signal crystals to summon a teacher. "
"Let's go. It's not like they can come back. "
The students discussed for a long time. Since there were no signs of movement down the slope, they turned around with the intention to leave.
However, just as they were about to do that, they saw something that froze them.
Where do you think you're going? Qi Xia crossed his hands and looked at those astonished students with a deceiving smile. Yang Xi and Yan Yu were each standing on his left and right sides. It was hard to take their eyes off the three skinny youths as they stood under the moonlight.
How did they come back?
The group of students looked at them in shock. They showed up without warning. They clearly saw Qi Xia's team jumping down the steep slope a moment ago, and they did not see any movement as they stared at the dark hillside. How can they go back up the hill?
What surprised them even more was that the scars on their bodies seemed to have disappeared as well. They had regained their beautiful and handsome faces, so they no longer looked as defeated as before.
"Thank you for your attention and attention before. It is true that we have the opportunity to return the favor. " A smile coiled around Qi Xia's lips, and the cold glint in his eyes flickered. He might look like a real man, but his appearance could make one tremble from within.
Those students subconsciously took a step back as they carefully stared at every action of their opponents.
The three of them seemed to have changed completely. Their fatigue and weakness seemed to have disappeared. Instead, they had regained the imposing aura of a top student in the academy. The students also knew that the two shamans within the Qi Xia team were first-year students in the Herbalist Division, so it was impossible for them to make an antidote in such a short amount of time.
However, if they do not consume the antidote, then how can they return to appear perfect?
Although they had many questions, the students were not fools. They knew that Qi Xia intended to pay off his debt with them.
"What are you afraid of? There are only three people, so don't tell me that you're all scared of them even with so many of us here? " One of the students decided to be brave.
"Absolutely. I can't believe that they managed to get the antidote in just a few minutes. The two shamans in their team were only first-year students, and one of them had yet to show himself. They might just act strong now. Everyone, let's attack them, and we'll see how capable they are! " The other students shouted in agreement to provoke everyone's emotions.
The other nervous disciples immediately calmed down upon hearing those words.
They did not believe that Qi Xia's team could get the antidote in such a short amount of time. Since they had yet to recover their strength, what was there to fear?
Chapter 156: People Who Don't Know There's Nothing to Fear (2)
Shen Yanxiao and Tang Nazhi were crouching under a tree not far from the rest of the place. Shen Yanxiao focused her attention on the three members of her team as they prepared to fight against over twenty students. Although he knew that Qi Xia, Yang Xi, and Yan Yu were influential figures in their respective divisions, he never had the chance to see them in action.
Yang Xi was a knight, so she specialized in defense. Since he did not carry his mount, it was quite difficult for him to unleash the strength of a knight completely. As for Yan Yu, he was a priest, so he had no fighting ability. Shen Yanxiao was not sure what she could do to help the situation, other than to give some blessings.
From their situation, Shen Yanxiao concluded that only Qi Xia had the ability to attack.
He thought that the three were clearly at a disadvantage, but Tang Nazhi seemed enthusiastic about the fight. He didn't seem worried at all.
"Will they be able to handle all those students?" Shen Yanxiao poked Tang Nazhi and asked. Although he could fight, he was just a shaman without the strength to tie a chicken. How could he possibly participate in a savage wild fight?
Tang Nazhi clicked his tongue and snorted. "Those group of idiots overestimated their abilities. You'll know soon if you keep watching. "
Shen Yanxiao did not get a definitive answer, so she turned her attention back to the fight. The scene changed dramatically once he turned his head.
The students had started their attacks on the three of them. The swordsmen were at the front as they held their swords and charged forward. The archers and magicians were positioned at the back so that they could launch attacks from afar. They managed to do so with the protection of the knights.
In the blink of an eye, the arrows fired by the archers were about to hit their bodies. However, they stood glued in their positions. Yan Yu raised his staff and waved. A sparkling star covered the three of them and then suddenly, a thin barrier of light formed in front of them.
The barrier of light repelled the arrows that hit him.
"It's a light shield!" Some students from the Priest Division immediately recognized the thin layer of barrier.
"Are you kidding? Have you ever seen a shield of light that big? " A student from the Priest Division stared at the huge light shield in disbelief. He was also a priest, and the light shield he could use could only protect half of his body surface. However, the barrier Yan Yu threw was enough to cover the three of them completely!
The shield of light is one of the blessing skills a priest can perform. Priestesses would use holy magic to form protective shields, and their strength would directly affect the durability and surface area of the shield. If they wanted to strengthen the durability and surface area of the barrier, then they would have to pour more magic into it.
As for the barrier in front of them, it was large enough to cover three people!
‘Can you be normal for once?’
All the students from the Priest Division wiped their cold sweat secretly.
Even among the Priest Division, there were only a few people who could manage such a large light shield.
The archers released arrows again, but no one could break through the barrier. The light shield remains undamaged.
Only the gods know the strength and durability of the shield!
Chapter 157: The Stupid One Doesn't Have to Be Afraid (3)
"Farmers, stop your attack. Magus, attack the light shield! " Some of the smarter students immediately understood the situation. Facing such a sturdy barrier, ordinary archers would not be able to break through it even if they ran out of all their arrows. So, they could only rely on Magi who trained magic to attack.
The students from the Magus Division started singing. As for the swordsmen who were about to reach the three of them, they were smart enough to know that they would not be able to break through the barrier forcefully. They may also take a detour to reach them.
Qi Xia narrowed his eyes calmly. The six swordsmen darted past them, and he gave them a sweet smile as they lowered their long swords. He shot out six flames from his fingertips. The flames struck the swordsmen with incredible speed and made them fly.
When the sporadic flames touched their clothes, it instantly exploded into a blazing fire. Most of their clothes were immediately on fire.
No one noticed when Qi Xia started singing, let alone how the six fire bullets were flying towards them.
The time to utter a fire bullet was very short, but it was almost impossible to summon six at once. It was already difficult for an ordinary magus to summon two fire bullets in a minute, let alone six!
When they saw that Qi Xia had started his attack, the magi who attacked the light shield felt nothing but be convinced.
Qi Xia must have recovered his magic if he could fire six fire bullets at such speed!
The six swordsmen who were hit by the fire bullets screamed as they were roasted under the flames. Qi Xia waved his hand again in the next second. Bright, translucent snowflakes appeared silently in the air and floated towards the six swordsmen. The snowflakes put out the fire.
