Amidst the crowd's discussions, Bai Ji and Yun Lin had already started a huge battle.
The Bai clan's secret skill of controlling insects was really strong.
Even though Bai Ji was only a grade one martial artist, but those black bugs seemed to be endless as they kept gushing out from his loose robe and enveloped Yun Lin like a dark cloud covering the top of his head.
But before they could even get within one meter of Yun Lin, they were crushed into a black and red blood mist.
This horrifying scene made many girls want to escape.
"Absolutely do not make an enemy out of Bai Ji!"
The girls looked at each other in dismay as they could tell what each other was thinking.
No matter if they were attacked or not, just the thought of being surrounded by endless insects made one's entire body turn cold.
"I want to see how many more insects you have?
Won't my heart ache if you die! "
Under the envelopment of the black and red blood mist, Yun Lin wasn't stained with a single trace of blood, as though there was a transparent barrier protecting her within.
Although she wasn't injured, but the feeling of being enveloped by the insects wasn't good and that pungent stench made Yun Lin feel nauseous.
"Don't worry, these insects' reproduction ability is very strong. Even if they all die, I won't feel any heartache!"
Bai Ji smiled at Yun Lin as he spoke, then his gaze shot towards Lin Feng's direction without leaving a trace.
Lin Feng hadn't left yet, but seemed to be watching their battle indifferently.
"It's good that you didn't leave." Bai Ji thought in his heart.
He intentionally provoked Yun Lin, initiating this battle so that he could display his own ability!
To prove that he had the qualifications to become Lin Feng's teammate, obtaining one of the two remaining places in Lin Feng's team.
Other than being angry, Yun Lin also had this motive hence the both of them had no intention of holding back.
That black cloud formed by the insects, although it wasn't a threat, but the quantity was terrifying. Yun Lin used her Soul Power to crush it continuously for a minute before the quantity of the insects started to decrease.
In the blood mist, Yun Lin who was almost suffocated by the stench was about to heave a sigh of relief when her expression changed slightly.
"There's poison!"
Although the insects in front of her weren't a threat and she could easily crush them with a sweep of her Soul Power, but the blood mist after the explosion actually had the effect of corroding Soul Power.
At first, because there were too few of them, they didn't feel anything.
By the time the blood fog became thicker and thicker, her entire body was shrouded by the blood fog, Yun Lin suddenly realised that the Spirit Barrier had already been corroded by half and wouldn't be able to hold on for much longer.
"Damn it!"
Looking at the black worms in front of him, Yun Lin couldn't help but turn pale at the thought of his mental barrier being completely corroded and him being covered by the worms.
That was a fate worse than death, comparable to any kind of torture.
Not only for women, but also for men. No one wanted to experience this feeling.
"Feng, are we really going to team up with Bai Ji?" Dong Yunan looked at the swarm of insects and asked weakly.
Even if she didn't like Bai Ji, she couldn't deny that Bai Ji was really strong!
Among the freshmen, other than Linfeng and Yunkai, there was probably no one who could be his opponent.
Whereas Bai Ji had yet to display his Demon Spirit. Just based on this Insect Control Secret Skill, he already had the ability to crush people of the same age.
From what Dong Xiaomei thought, Bai Ji had the qualifications to join their small team!
But these worms were simply too disgusting!
If they really became a team member, they would definitely come into contact with them frequently!
And they would have to eat together!
Could it be that they were using the shared chopsticks?
If they accidentally got saliva on them ….
No way!
Absolutely not, just the thought of it was terrifying!
"There's a possibility." Linfeng took a look at Dong Xiaomei as he intentionally smiled.
Bai Ji's ability was very strong, but he didn't meet the requirements of being a team member.
Dong Xiaomei who didn't know that Linfeng was joking felt her heart tremble as her little face collapsed, but she didn't rebuke him directly.
Linfeng was the team leader and the core of the team. If he was willing to let Bai Ji join, she could only accept helplessly!
Unless she left the team!
"Even if we become a team member, I won't eat with him!"
Although Dong Xiaomei didn't rebuke, she secretly swore in her heart.
"Feng, who do you think will win?" Yunkai asked.
"Bai Ji probably. Yun Lin is restrained."
Linfeng analysed.
Yun Lin refined a Ninth Grade Demon Spirit, Silver Hell Snake.
The Silver Hell Snake was a Ninth Grade Demon Spirit and belonged to the mental type.
Its innate ability was mental attacks. After Demon Transformation, Yun Lin's speed was very fast, but his close combat ability wasn't strong.
His fighting style mainly relied on mental attacks, and mental attacks required a certain distance from the opponent. This distance couldn't be too far, and because his close combat ability wasn't strong, he couldn't get too close to the opponent.
Long distance control was Bai Ji's specialty.
From the beginning, Yun Lin was restrained and couldn't get close to Yun Lin.
Although Yun Lin's mental attacks could crush the worms, there were too many of them, which consumed a lot of his soul power.
If it was someone else, such as Yunkai, Bai Ji wouldn't be able to use such a method to restrain them.
Yunkai refined the Golden Lion King. Under Demon Transformation, he relied on the Atavistic Demon Transformation to make his body invulnerable. He wasn't afraid of the worms at all. Those who cultivated fire type cultivation techniques or refined fire type demon spirits were also naturally restrained by the worms.
Yun Lin's long distance attacks were ineffective, and he had no chance of winning in close combat. He was completely restrained.
"You only realised now?
Indeed, big boobs but no brains! "
Seeing the slight change in Yun Lin's expression, Bai Ji snickered as fingernail-sized, flat and long strange insects crawled out from his ear.
These worms had six legs under their abdomens. Their bodies were pitch black and shone with a metallic luster. On their backs, there was a pair of pitch black wings. Their eyes were green and somewhat frightening. On their mouths, there was a needle-like mouthpiece.
The worms flapped their wings and appeared between Bai Ji and Yun Lin. As long as Yun Lin's mental strength was exhausted, these worms would pierce through his body.
"Poison Stinger Fly!"
Yun Lin's expression was unsightly. As a first grade venomous worm, the Poison Stinger Fly's body was as hard as iron. It had a strong penetrating power and venom. As long as one of them penetrated the body, the venom released was enough to make a person lose their ability to fight.
Not to mention her, even a third grade martial artist would have to lie down if they were careless.
Facing the seemingly endless thick fog, Yun Lin was obviously in a dilemma.
At this stage, she wasn't as strong as Bai Ji.
What made Yun Lin fearful was that Bai Ji didn't possess a demon spirit. As a genius of the Bai Clan, Bai Ji had been displaying the clan's secret technique of controlling worms.
As the most outstanding genius of the Bai Clan in the past ten years, Yun Lin didn't believe that Bai Ji didn't refine a demon spirit.
"Bullying a girl isn't the behavior of a gentleman."
Seeing Yun Lin in a disadvantageous position, Bai Xiaoyun, who had been watching the show from the side, slowly stood out.
"You can come at me together. I don't mind." Seeing Bai Xiaoyun coming out, Bai Ji didn't mind.
Yun Lin alone wasn't enough to display his talent and strength. Adding in Bai Xiaoyun from the Bloodline Clan was enough.
"Bai Xiaoyun, I don't need your help."
Seeing Bai Xiaoyun's appearance, Yun Lin wasn't surprised. Instead, he was a little angry.
"It's fine, I won't charge you!"
Bai Xiaoyun smiled.
As a first grade martial artist, a genius of the Bloodline Clan who had refined an eighth grade demon spirit, Bai Xiaoyun actually had the strength to compete for the top ten, or even the top three. However, he was besieged and killed in an instant in the Throne Challenge, becoming a pitiful worm and a joke in the eyes of everyone.
Just like Yun Lin, compared to becoming Linfeng's teammate, he wanted to show his strength more.
Knowing Bai Ji's strength, Bai Xiaoyun didn't have the intention to test the waters. Taking a step forward, he rushed towards Bai Ji. In the process, his originally white skin was slowly turning crimson, bright red like blood.
"Bloodline ability!" Someone exclaimed.
Bai Xiaoyun was a genius of the Bloodline Clan, and his bloodline ability had already awakened. This wasn't a secret.
With Bai Xiaoyun joining the battle, many freshmen who were confident in their own strength were eager to give it a try.
They also wanted to compete for the two spots in Linfeng's team.
As for whether their strength was stronger than Bai Ji and Yun Lin, it wasn't the most important thing.
A five-man team mainly tested the teamwork of the team!
Even if their strength was weaker, their demon spirit's innate ability was suitable to assist Linfeng and Yunkai. Thus, they might have a chance.
A huge battle royale seemed to be on the verge of breaking out!
"I'll do it myself!"
Seeing Bai Xiaoyun rushing towards Bai Ji, Yun Lin cursed. However, Bai Xiaoyun didn't seem to hear him and didn't respond.
Seeing this, Yun Lin's silver snake eyes flashed with a trace of hesitation, but it quickly disappeared.
Ah!
Yun Lin let out a painful roar, followed by a sharp wail.
The wail seemed to contain immense pain and there was a mysterious pressure, causing many to frown, feeling uncomfortable.
In the middle of Yun Lin's forehead, the original silver rhombus snake scale was emitting a sparkling radiance, causing the air to vibrate, filled with a mysterious fluctuation. As the radiance grew brighter, something seemed to be coming out from the snake scale.
"Snake!"
Many people exclaimed.
The thing that came out was a snake head!
Following which, a long snake body also came out.
When the snake tail appeared, Yun Lin stopped roaring but her body went soft. Before her soul power was completely exhausted, the snake tail tapped on the ground and tried her best to leap out, escaping from the blood fog's range.
Bang!
Yun Lin didn't even have the strength to stand firm and directly fell onto the ground. At this moment, her face was pale without a trace of blood, looking extremely miserable, causing many guys to feel heartache.
"Go!"
Looking at the illusory snake figure in front of her, Yun Lin's eyes were filled with excitement. The snake figure was somewhat illusory, but no matter if it was the scales or the patterns on the scales, they were abnormally lifelike.
Although it had been a while since she refined the demon spirit, this was the first time she used the Silver Nether Snake's innate ability.
This white snake that appeared seemed to have intelligence. It first spat out its tongue at Yun Lin, then changed its direction and slowly slithered in the air, like it was swimming in the sea, towards Bai Ji.
"Damn, this is too big!"
When Bai Xiaoyun saw the illusory white snake appear, she was startled. Abruptly stopping in her tracks, she disappeared in an instant.
She had no intention of displaying her strength!
"I never thought that you would really summon it!"
Bai Ji's face was ugly, no longer as calm as before.
A Ninth Grade Silver Nether Snake, as a Ninth Grade demon spirit, naturally has its own innate ability.
The Silver Nether Snake's innate ability is to summon Nether Snakes.
Due to the difference in soul power, the number and strength of the Nether Snakes that could be summoned would also be different.
According to the records, those that were attacked by the Nether Snakes wouldn't have any injuries to their bodies, but their souls would be devoured. If the injuries were light, their minds would be damaged, and if the injuries were severe, their souls would be scattered!
Bai Ji knew the characteristics of the Silver Nether Snake, but he didn't think that Yun Lin would be able to summon it.
Yun Lin hadn't refined the demon spirit for long, so he shouldn't have the ability to summon it.
Even if he could, Bai Lin didn't have the courage to summon it, because summoning the Silver Nether Snake would cause him to suffer great injuries.
In two days, he would be entering the Demon Beast Blood Pool to cleanse his body and choose a cultivation technique. Getting injured at such an important moment wouldn't be a good choice.
"Nether Snake!"
Looking at the illusory white snake, everyone's expression was grave. Those that were closer to it immediately fled.
This kind of weird thing, if you accidentally touch it, you would either die or be injured!
"This is a Demon Spiritualist!"
Many people looked at the snake with envy and desire in their eyes.
This is the reason why Demon Spiritualists are above Martialists.
This weird Nether Snake, even an ordinary Third Grade Martialist would be in danger if they were to encounter it. Furthermore, Yun Lin is only a First Grade Martialist, and he hasn't refined the demon spirit for more than half a year.
The Nether Snake slithered in the air. Its body was graceful, and its speed wasn't fast. However, it made Bai Ji's face abnormally ugly. Deep within his eyes, there was a trace of fear.
He was locked onto by the Nether Snake!
There's nowhere to escape!
Bai Ji didn't use the insects to block it because he knew that it would be useless.
"Lunatic!"
Bai Ji scolded Yun Lin. His eyes were filled with hatred. He took out a few bottles from his robe. Picking out a colourful crystal bottle, he opened the bottle and poured the liquid into his mouth.
Veins appeared on Bai Ji's face as he endured the pain. At the same time, strange patterns climbed up from his chest, occupying half of his face.
These patterns were colourful and extremely bright, giving off a bewitching feeling.
Bai Ji's originally pale face, coupled with these bright patterns, looked extremely strange and dangerous!
"Is this a secret technique or a demon transformation?"
Someone asked curiously.
Bai Ji's current state looked like he was possessed by a demon spirit. However, other than the patterns on his face, there weren't any other characteristics of a demon beast. It looked more like a secret technique!
The moment the bewitching patterns approached the Nether Snake, they seemed to come alive. Like layers of clouds, they kept surging and finally transformed into a colourful ghost face. It opened its mouth and swallowed the white snake.
And after summoning this strange ghost face, Bai Ji collapsed. Although he didn't collapse to the ground, he spat out a mouthful of dark red blood.
The moment the blood came into contact with the marble floor, there was a sizzling sound. Following the white smoke, the tiles were corroded.
Just as the Nether Snake and the ghost face were about to come into contact, a purple ball the size of a marble silently appeared in between the two.
"What?"
Under Bai Ji's astonished gaze, the ball exploded with a dazzling light. That light was as bright as a small sun. Instantly, the Nether Snake and the ghost face were melted.
Bai Ji suddenly closed his eyes. There was a piercing pain in his eyes. Following the crackling sounds, electric arcs shuttled through his body. He couldn't help but tremble as he let out a painful roar.
The purple electric arc shuttled back and forth between Bai Ji's eyes. Then as if it had a mind of its own, it shot towards a certain direction.
Bai Xiaoyun's reaction was very fast. When the ball exploded with light, he knew it wasn't good. Mixed in with the crowd, he moved very quickly. But no matter how fast he was, he couldn't compare to the speed of lightning. In an instant, the electric arc caught up to him.
Then the electric arc shot towards Yun Lin again. Yun Lin soon followed in the footsteps of the other two.
The electric arc shuttled back and forth between the three. In just a moment, the three who were still in the middle of a chaotic battle lost their ability to fight.
"The throne challenge just ended and you're already itching for a fight?"
A chuckle rang out.
"It's the head of the War Department!
The 27th place on the Glory of Glory's Rising Star List! "
"Sure enough, he's as strong as the legends say!"
"The top Lightning Mage!"
Everyone's attention was focused on a group of seven people slowly walking over.
Four men and three women, led by a young girl.
The young girl is 1.75 meters tall, with shoulder-length hair. Although she's wearing a long robe, it couldn't hide her sexy figure. On her chest, there's a scarlet 'Battle' symbol.
The young girl is holding a white bone staff with an egg-sized purple crystal embedded at the top.
Among the crowd, there were many Lightning Mages who couldn't help swallowing their saliva when they saw the staff.
This staff is a top-grade item!
It's worth at least five hundred million!
"What a powerful Lightning Mage!"
Dong Xiaomei sighed.
Although she wasn't in the arena and was more than ten meters away, she still felt her body going numb. This was caused by the aftermath of the energy.
Yunkai's face turned solemn!
As a genius who refined an Earth List demon spirit and achieved Ancestral Demon Transformation, even if his talent is monstrous, he still doesn't have the slightest ability to resist in front of this power.
"Yang Ningbing, the number one Lightning Mage, truly lives up to her reputation!"
Linfeng wasn't unfamiliar with this legendary young girl. Even if he just entered the school not long ago, her name was like thunder to his ears.
The eight heads of the student council are all influential figures in the school, and the War Department is one of the three most important departments.
In Hongyun, the ratio of men to women is as high as three to one. For a woman to be above men and become the head of the War Department, her strength can be imagined.
Even if he wasn't in Hongyun, Linfeng knew who she was.
Because her surname is Yang!
She's from the Yang Clan of Shang Jing!
As if she felt Linfeng's gaze, Yang Ningbing glanced at Linfeng …
