Chapter 444 Yi Kong
Feng Longwei had not been injured, but a tinge of fear lingered in his heart. The immense strength displayed by Li Xiaoyao shocked him.
"The others have been injured and sent away."
Ye Chu frowned slightly, looking at the remaining nine people with a touch of irritation in his heart.
The strength of Long Chi was beyond his expectations, and Li Xiaoyao was the biggest surprise. With Li Xiaoyao present, Long Chi was already in an invincible position; no other squadron mattered anymore.
It seemed that the Ferocious Dragon Squadron no longer had the power to continue the battle.
But Ye Chu didn't see it that way. When people were cornered, there were only two possible outcomes.
They either bow their heads in surrender or hold them high in resistance.
Take a gamble, and there might still be a chance. As for creating that chance, it required human effort. For instance, forming an alliance with other squadrons to jointly face Long Chi.
Yes, that's what he would do.
Ye Chu was already decided, and he looked at the Blood Rose immediately, "Blood Rose, check the positions of the other squadrons. Inform me as soon as you find them."
The crowd didn't understand his intention, and Ye Chu simply explained, "Long Chi is too strong, and we are too weak. Our only strategy now is to join forces with other squadrons."
So that was it. Realization dawned on everyone. Although some were reluctant, they had to admit that it was the only way.
If they didn't ally with other squadrons, they would only be eliminated.
The annual military district competition—if they were to drop out now, it would be too bitter a pill to swallow.
Cheng Yiyi felt somewhat concerned for Li Xiaoyao as, in her memory, his cultivation level wasn't particularly impressive. She had once seen online how Li Xiaoyao defeated Li Shisan with a single sword strike, and afterwards, Cheng Yiyi had specifically looked up information about Li Shisan. When she learned that Li Shisan was actually an Eighth Rank cultivator in the Spirit Cultivation Realm, she couldn't help but open her mouth in astonishment.
Li Xiaoyao's feat of defeating an Eighth Rank cultivator in the Spirit Cultivation Realm with a single sword strike—what did that imply? It showed that his cultivation level had also reached that level.
Even then, Cheng Yiyi continued to worry about Li Xiaoyao. After all, Li Xiaoyao was just one person, while Ye Chu contemplated uniting with other squadrons.
This time, Blood Rose didn't take too long before she said with a face full of surprise, "Found them, two squadrons are in the midst of battle."
"Which direction?" Ye Chu asked, "Let's go now."
The Ferocious Dragon Squadron headed towards the two fighting squadrons, but halfway there, another announcement came from the sky.
"Fang Squadron, defeated!"
"Dragon Group Squadron, victorious!"
"Dragon Group Squadron with two victories and zero defeats, now tied for first!"
...
"Bullet Mark Squadron, defeated!"
"Ferocious Dragon Squadron, victorious!"
"Ferocious Dragon Squadron with one victory and zero defeats, currently ranked second!"
...
In just one minute, two squadrons had been consecutively eliminated. Out of ten squadrons, only five remained.
Ye Chu grew anxious. His original intention had been better the more squadrons he could unite with, but he had underestimated the terrifying fighting strength of the Dragon Group. In just a few short minutes, the Dragon Group had wiped out the Fang Squadron.

"Speed up!"
More than ten minutes later, a group of black dots appeared in their field of vision, the members of the Dragon Group.
Ye Chu counted roughly and was surprised to find that none of the sixteen members of the Dragon Group were missing.
"Last year, the Wolf Fang had achieved an excellent second place, but in the hands of the Dragon Group, they were wiped out as a team. The Dragon Group this year is just too abnormal!" Ye Chu and others stood in place, approximately eight hundred meters away from the Dragon Group. Because it was flat ground, some people from the Dragon Group had already spotted them.
"Just wiped out one team, and now another one has come. Are they looking to take advantage of the situation?" The one who spoke was a woman dressed in a black leather outfit. Her figure was even more enchanting and seductive than Blood Rose, her every smile and frown temptingly bewitching by nature.
"This troop looks very weak, Zhao Lin, Hong Yi, go handle it," commanded a bald man.
The bald man's Buddhist name was Yi Kong. He appeared refined and was always smiling when he spoke, but others were well aware that this monk was far from the amiable figure he seemed to be.
It had been a year since Yi Kong came to the Dragon Group, and during that period, three people had sought trouble with him, all of whom met very grim fates. If it hadn't been for the instructor discovering the issue in time and intervening, those three would have been killed by Yi Kong. Even with the instructor's intervention, Yi Kong still completely disabled them.
The team members were very afraid of Yi Kong and never dared to disobay his orders. Nevertheless, they had to admit that Yi Kong truly had the skills. Those skills were not just reflected in his personal strength. Over the year, Yi Kong had also guided them through some mistakes in their cultivation and taught them martial arts techniques.
The instructor of the Dragon Group, on the other hand, had lost the respect and dignity he should have had. Initially, the instructor was angered by this, but something happened later on, and the instructor no longer expressed any dissatisfaction toward Yi Kong.
From these details, it was evident that Yi Kong was not only powerful in strength, but also supported by an ominously formidable energy.
Zhao Lin was a young man with delicate features, wearing a camouflage short-sleeved T-shirt and tactical pants that outlined his perfect figure quite splendidly.
Hong Yi was the seductive woman in black who had just spoken. A broad sword was slung on her back—entirely out of place with her delicate and soft figure.
The broad sword contrasted against her delicate figure, forming a striking paradox that caught the eye.
"Only ten people? Isn't that bullying the fewer with the many?" Hong Yi murmured a few words with a slightly tipped red lip, displaying a hint of displeasure.
Zhao Lin, expressionless, replied in agreement and then streaked towards the Grey Wolf like lightning.
"Hey, wait for me." Hong Yi stomped her foot, apparently a bit annoyed, and quickly followed after him.

Feng Longwei watched the two approaching like a gust of wind and couldn't help but narrow his eyes, whispering, "Seems like they don't come with good intentions."
Ye Chu, who had also noticed the hostility from the other side, said, "No one is to act without my command."
After speaking, Ye Chu stepped forward. In almost just a few breaths' time, Zhao Lin and the other were upon them.
Zhao Lin flexed his fists, producing a series of crisp crackling sounds, and stared at Ye Chu. Without looking back, he said, "This one's mine, the others are yours."
"You really don't understand how to be tender to a lady, letting me fight nine by myself." Hong Yi adopted an affected girl-like demeanor.
"You have the option to switch with me," said Zhao Lin with a deadpan face.
With a pout, Hong Yi said, "Forget it, I'll leave it to you. That one should be the Grey Wolf's instructor, I can't handle him."
Hearing the two's conversation, Ye Chu felt a twinge in his heart.
These two, without even fully understanding their own strength, had still chosen to take action, indicating that their cultivation level must have reached a terrifying degree.
And these were just two members of the Dragon Group. He dared not even imagine how formidable the others were, let alone the rumored number one of the Dragon Group—Yi Kong.
What kind of instructor could have trained such powerful members?
However, the stronger the Dragon Group, the more confident Ye Chu felt. Only if the Dragon Group was strong enough would they have the possibility to contend with Li Xiaoyao.
