Generally, to ensure the survival of students, the academy would immediately escort out any student who lost their combat ability for treatment, with the interval not exceeding three minutes.
However, Ye Sheng had been lying here for a full two minutes with no activity around him. This meant the battle had not ended, and thus the medical personnel could not come and disturb the combatants.
If that were the case, sharing hearing with such sensitive insects would be absolutely out of the question. Otherwise, as long as the enemy created a sonic boom, they could directly disrupt their rhythm.
Realizing this, Zhi Ying’s face immediately turned pale. She was about to issue a defensive order, but before she could speak, another whistling sound cut through the air. Ye Xuan beside her fell to the ground. The inconspicuous black dagger in her chest was particularly glaring in Zhi Ying’s eyes.
"Feng Tianlin! Use the spiderweb to form a semicircle around us! An Chang, absolutely do not use the earth shield!" Zhi Ying stood up and commanded at the fastest possible speed, "Don't use earth to condense a shield, use earth to send us underground, dig a tunnel!"
Zhi Ying's thought process was clear, and her idea was indeed rational. Even Bai Cha couldn't help but nod.
However, things did not go as planned. While Zhi Ying was an excellent girl, this newly formed five-person team was clearly sluggish in both execution and reaction.
Only Zhi Ying had reacted and calmed down. The other two teammates were a bit lacking. When Ye Xuan fell, An Chang had instinctively surrounded everyone with an earth shield, causing them to lose Bai Cha's sight. Feng Tianlin was even slower, and in a moment of panic, he plastered a layer of spider silk inside the earth shield.
What was the use of sticking spider silk inside the shield?
Zhi Ying was almost exasperated. Before she could speak, the earth shield was blown open with a large hole by a mass of black flames. Dust flew everywhere inside the earth shield, affecting their vision.
Bai Cha, however, shot in like a black arrow from the breach, bringing the pure black flames like a descending Asura, directly disorienting the three of them.
Zhi Ying felt a piercing pain all over her body, regretting a hundred times over why she had chosen such a tough opponent. When she opened her eyes, she found Bai Cha standing in front of her.
The moonlight illuminated half of Bai Cha's face. One side was like a succubus from the depths of hell, evil and beautiful, while the other side was like an angel from heaven, pure and radiant, striking people with awe.
The two met eyes, and Zhi Ying felt a fine layer of cold sweat breaking out on her back. Her other two companions, who had been blown away, were now motionless, unable to even groan.
Clearly, Bai Cha had shown mercy to her, or rather, to all of them.
Compared to Zhi Ying's nervousness, Bai Cha appeared very relaxed. She smiled with satisfaction at the somewhat familiar young girl in front of her, her voice even softening a bit, "What's your name?"
What a beautiful smile, what melodious words.
Looking at Bai Cha, Zhi Ying was stunned for a while before stammering a reply, "Zhi, Zhi Ying, hello Miss Bai."
"A promising talent." Bai Cha nodded gently and disappeared into the dense forest again.
This time, the medical personnel arrived extremely quickly. Within a minute, more than a dozen medical personnel swarmed from all directions, carrying various injections and stretchers. They rushed to treat the few people and quickly transported them away from the scene by helicopter.
Zhi Ying wiped the cold sweat from her forehead before leaving with the medical personnel.
"Oh, this little girl didn't inherit the Zhi family's ways?" Lang Ya watched from the screen, finding it curious.
If the Light faction had equality and no hierarchy, it would be insulting even to dogs. This little girl actually respectfully greeted them? If it were someone from a typical family, they would either be wary or curse loudly.
"Amitabha, she's a young lady from a collateral branch, how could she have encountered such things~" Meng Qinghuan waved her hand helplessly, "With the Zhi family's fiery temper, it's truly rare to have a calm one."
A group of people stared at the screen for three days and three nights. Fortunately, they were all modified by dragon blood. If they were normal people, they would have been exhausted to death.
And after Bai Cha dealt with that five-person team, she fell into silence again. During this period, she acted as a螳螂捕蝉，黄雀在后 (mantis stalks cicada, oriole behind), taking down two small groups. Only on the last day did she begin her hunt.
Bai Cha was already extremely skilled in assassination. She moved like a black mamba snake through the darkness, stealthy, venomous, agile, vigilant, and infinitely patient.
On the fifth day, there were still over fifty people remaining, a surprisingly large number.
This was actually normal for first-year students. After all, it was their first battle, and the dual pressure on their bodies and minds was immense. Under great pressure, some were directly eliminated, but many also showed outstanding performances.
For a group of newcomers, Bai Cha's arrival was truly bullying, a complete dimensionality reduction strike. Bai Cha's bracelet already had over 30,000 points, ranking first, single-handedly accounting for more than half of the total points.
However, second place was not Mo Ziye, but Cang Liu.
Even third place was not Mo Ziye. Mo Ziye had directly dropped out of the top five.
"Little Mo Mo is still too young, too soft-hearted." Meng Qinghuan shook her head helplessly, "How can you not strike in a free-for-all environment?"
Mo Ziye's performance was indeed commendable, and his abilities were strong, but he was too fair and just, a complete opposite of Bai Cha. Bai Cha would incapacitate with one strike from the shadows, while Mo Ziye would announce himself and engage in a fair PK. The watching teachers were unsure how to comment for a moment.
"Hey! They met!" In the monitoring room, everyone suddenly exclaimed with surprise. Meng Qinghuan looked up at another screen, where a girl with striking beauty stood before a young man.
With sword-like eyebrows, bright eyes, and a gentle, childish face, he had an aura of soft purity.
"Wow~ Is this a pampered wife falling in love with a dominant wooden block?" Meng Qinghuan murmured to herself, stroking her chin as she watched the screen, inexplicably excited.
"How did you find me?"
On an eighteen-story abandoned skyscraper, Bai Cha sat quietly on the rooftop edge, her long, slender legs, outlined by black tight-fitting clothes, dangling gracefully in the air, appearing leisurely.
Her long hair fluttered in the wind. The brilliant night sky and stars could not match even a fraction of her profile.
Mo Ziye was a little nervous, his heart beating faster. He clenched his fists, then mustered the courage to speak, "Xiao Bai... does Xiao Bai want to rest for a while?"
"What?" Bai Cha was a little surprised, thinking she had misheard.
"Rest... yes, rest for a while! Bai Cha probably hasn't rested at all these past three days, right? I, I can help keep watch!" Mo Ziye's face flushed. He took a deep breath and continued, "My Dragon's Calamity is Light. Light will continuously restore my stamina and heal my wounds, but Xiao Bai probably doesn't have this ability." https:/
"Hmm... While that's true, is it really okay for you to reveal this information to me during a free-for-all?" Bai Cha turned around, looking at the somewhat awkward little boy with amusement. "We are enemies now."
Her dragon and Mo Ziye's were the opposite: one was the purest light, the other the purest darkness, both transcending all attributes yet containing all attributes. Light's strongest aspects were healing and defense, while darkness was pure offense.
However, they were in a free-for-all now, and she had stated her stance of not forming alliances. Was this little guy still coming to show favor?
"Xiao Bai said that you wouldn't make a move on me until the very end, right?" Mo Ziye said, waving his hands in a flustered manner. "As long as Bai Cha is the last one remaining, I won't make a move on Xiao Bai either. I just want Xiao Bai to rest for a while."
"...I really don't know what to say to you." Bai Cha smiled helplessly, "Alright, I always keep my word. I'll fight you last, but rest is not necessary. I used to often complete missions for days and nights without stopping."
"But this is bad for your body!" Mo Ziye blurted out without thinking. As soon as he spoke, Mo Ziye's own face turned red.
The teachers watching on screen: "..."
Ah... youth is truly wonderful.
Meanwhile, in a waiting area, a large room contained dozens of screens identical to the monitoring room, but the room was not entirely filled with people.
There were only two, one black and one white, standing before the screens. Both appeared distinguished, with the white-clad person appearing more flamboyant and cheerful, while the black-clad person seemed more refined and gentlemanly.
Around them crawled various bizarre-looking reptilian creatures, some the size of a palm, others half the height of a person, all with a pair of demonic wings of different colors.
Suddenly, a light yellow dragon, about the size of an arm, coiled up, and the halo around its body flickered. The door immediately opened, and two medical personnel rushed in, carrying the little dragon out of the waiting area on a stretcher.
"Oh dear, another one severely injured." Michael said gloatingly, crossing his arms. He looked at Lucifer, who had maintained the same expression from beginning to end, and couldn't help but wave his hand in front of his eyes.
"Hey, demon, don't tell me you've welded that expression onto your face?" Michael shrugged uninterestedly, "Aren't you tired of it..."
["But this is bad for your body!"]
Michael stopped midway as his host's voice suddenly sounded. He was startled and looked up to see his host standing behind Bai Cha like a wronged little wife.
"Eh? Their relationship has progressed this fast?" Michael scratched his head and blurted out without thinking.
Lucifer's already slightly downturned mouth stiffened further. He looked at Michael with a hint of disdain, "As a Sacred Dragon, I hope you can drain the water from your brain before speaking. It's merely your host showing concern for my master as an unfamiliar friend."
"Unfamiliar? I remember they know each other quite well." Michael was not swayed by Lucifer's words. He was used to Lucifer's demeanor and retorted stubbornly, "Haven't they been interacting quite a bit recently? They're pretty much familiar by now, friends first, no need to rush."
Lucifer smiled, "I am not denying the future relationship between your host and my master."
"Tsk, hypocritical. Don't think I didn't see your expression just now." Michael said triumphantly.
"No, this is composure." Lucifer ignored Michael and looked back at the screen.
"Tsk, you this... Hey?? Are you saying I lack composure?"
Lucifer no longer paid attention to the almost exploding Michael and looked back at the screen. As he watched, his brows furrowed imperceptibly.
On the screen, Bai Cha had indeed jumped down from the rooftop railing, without attacking or defending.
"Xiao, is Xiao Bai willing to rest? If you don't trust me, I can rest first, and I'll give you my life first, then you give me your safety, and we'll be even." Mo Ziye seemed somewhat happy when he saw Bai Cha come down, his eyes lighting up.
Bai Cha found it somewhat amusing and frustrating. Giving him safety first didn't mean she could give him safety, right? If this child were like this with others, he would surely be cheated out of everything.
But looking at the expectant and joyful young man, she kept some words unspoken.
Mo Ziye's gaze reminded her of the golden retriever she used to have. When that golden retriever wanted her to sleep with it, it would have this look.
Pure, and hopeful.
"There's no need for such trouble. Then I'll rest for a while."
