Chapter 156: Bear Slaughter

Chapter 156: Bear Slaughter

The Wind-Cutting Technique is quite famous, and many people can recognize it. However, they had never seen the six forms of the Wind-Cutting Technique executed using illusory beast claws before, which left them all astonished!

Qin Yun was seething with anger!

The Blue Spirit Star Palace had repeatedly made things difficult for them, significantly increasing the difficulty of their assessment. This was clearly an act of oppression!

"Die!" Enraged, he unleashed the six forms of the Wind-Cutting Technique in quick succession.

An elder in the sky sensed something amiss and urgently shouted, "Stop!"

However, the six forms of the Wind-Cutting Technique had already been unleashed!

Four extremely sharp claw blades slashed down, striking the Thunderstorm Giant Bear!

Rippling sounds echoed as the Thunderstorm Giant Bear's tough outer armor was easily sliced through, black blood gushing out from the wounds like waves.

Everyone was utterly shocked. In just a few moments, the Thunderstorm Giant Bear's body was covered in deep, bloody gashes!

"Stop!"

Qin Yun ignored the voice and once again unleashed the six forms of the Wind-Cutting Technique, ruthlessly slashing at the already wounded Thunderstorm Giant Bear, causing blood to spurt out.

By the time the beast-controlling elder landed on the ground, the Thunderstorm Giant Bear had already been torn into pieces by the Heavenly Lion Dragon Claw!

Seeing the scattered remains, everyone couldn't help but shudder!

Although weapons were not allowed, Qin Yun's lion claws had been as terrifying as weapons, akin to four sharp blades!

On the other side, the Thunderstorm Giant Bear was bound by golden threads of inner energy from Murong Daren, making it unable to move.

Xie Wufeng leaped over lightly, a white light appearing in his palm, followed by a cold sword aura. He then struck the Thunderstorm Giant Bear's head, the white light and sword aura piercing into the bear's skull!

The struggling and roaring Thunderstorm Giant Bear suddenly fell silent and collapsed to the ground...

Murong Daren rushed over and delivered ten powerful punches to the Thunderstorm Giant Bear!

Dean Bai, seeing both giant bears fall, was also startled and shouted, "Team Ten, completed ten strikes!"

The hourglass by his feet still had a little sand left, but the two Thunderstorm Giant Bears in the valley were dead!

Qin Yun, splattered with blood, looked coldly at the furious elder and sneered, "Sorry, your Thunderstorm Giant Bears were too weak and got accidentally killed by me. I'm really sorry!"

These two eighth-stage demonic beasts were not weak at all, yet they were still killed! One of them was even torn to pieces!

Dean Bai quickly flew over to prevent any action from the Blue Spirit Star Palace.

"You... you remember this!" The beast-controlling elder, extremely angry, retrieved the Thunderstorm Giant Bear's corpse.

"You should be the ones to remember this! How dare you make our assessment so difficult? I will remember this, and one day, I, Xie Wufeng, will make you pay tenfold!" Xie Wufeng said coldly, releasing a vast sword aura filled with intense killing intent, which spread over the valley, causing many martial artists to feel terrified.

"You..." The beast-controlling elder was speechless. He was a ninth-rank martial artist, yet he was intimidated by Xie Wufeng.

"Get lost!" Xie Wufeng roared, his eyes flashing with cold light. The oppressive sword aura made the stones on the ground tremble.

Qin Yun was secretly alarmed; Xie Wufeng had hidden such terrifying power. It must have been due to extreme anger that he couldn't suppress it.

The beast-controlling elder from the Blue Spirit Star Palace was frightened and hurriedly left, and the turbulent clouds in the valley gradually calmed down.

Zhuochuan took several deep breaths and exclaimed, "Xie Wufeng is truly formidable. How did he cultivate such a sword aura? He must be a sword fanatic!"

Hou Xingfeng frowned and said, "I really misjudged him back then. With his strength, I would definitely have made an exception to accept him! Just like Qin Yun, he is astonishing!"

Yang Shiyue also let out a sigh of relief. Qin Yun's lion claws had left her amazed!

She was well-versed in martial arts and could tell that the lion claws were not ordinary techniques.

Dean Bai announced loudly, "Teams Seven, Nine, and Ten have passed this round of the assessment and will proceed to the third round!"

"The third round will involve the Heavenly Profound Martial Academy, Star Profound Martial Academy, and Ling Martial Academy each sending two seventh-rank martial artists to engage in combat with the teams."

"Each team must defeat the two assigned seventh-rank martial artists to pass the assessment, within a time limit of one hour."

Upon hearing this, Qin Yun knew the assessment was very unfavorable for them.

"You will rest for one hour before starting the third round of the assessment," Dean Bai said.

During the break, people set up a combat platform in the middle of the valley, cutting large stones into massive bricks and laying them to form a square platform a hundred meters wide.

Dean Bai also took the opportunity to explain the rules to the students...

After listening to the rules, Qin Yun was very frustrated. They had four sixth-rank martial artists, and they had to face two seventh-rank martial artists, which put them at a significant disadvantage compared to other teams.

"There are two methods. The first is for the entire team to go up on the platform and fight the two seventh-rank martial artists, defeating them within one hour."

"The second method is for you to take turns fighting, coming down if you lose and letting someone else take over, using a relay battle to deplete the opponent's inner energy."

"Only victory counts, so a draw won't do!"

After hearing this, Xie Wufeng said, "Let's choose the second method and use a relay battle to take turns fighting the seventh-rank martial artists! Brother Yun, let's split up again. I'll team up with Murong Daren to face one, and you and Huo Lao San will face the other."

"Agreed!" Qin Yun nodded. With only four of them, their chances of winning in a four-on-two match on the platform weren't great.

The other teams also discussed their strategies during this time.

An hour passed quickly, and Team Seven decided to engage in a group battle, with more than ten people standing on the combat platform. Their opponents, two seventh-rank martial artists from the Star Profound Martial Academy, were middle-aged men.

"Begin!" Dean Bai shouted.

From the very start, the sparring platform was in chaos.

More than a dozen students at the Sixth Level surrounded and attacked two middle-aged men at the Seventh Level, without using any weapons. Therefore, everyone was launching streams of internal energy from a distance.

Various colors of internal energy surged towards the two Seventh-Level martial artists, causing waves of air to explode!

Xie Wufeng said, "The martial artists of Star Profound Martial Academy truly have impressive strength. Despite being surrounded and attacked like this, they remain so calm, and they haven't even started attacking yet!"

Huo Zhong shouted, "They're attacking now!"

The two Seventh-Level martial artists launched a coordinated assault, their palm techniques identical. Suddenly, many massive palm shadows appeared, like rolling black clouds, sweeping over and forcing the students of the seventh team back. A few were even knocked off the sparring platform.

As long as more than half of the participants remained on the platform, it wouldn’t be considered a loss.

In no time, the other students on the platform were also sent flying down by the waves of palm shadows!

The seventh team, which had shown great strength, actually failed this round of the assessment!
