Battle Through the Heavens: Top Talent

Chapter 85 Han Feng's Attack

Canaan College, inner courtyard, a two-story attic.

Sitting cross-legged on the bed, Xiao Yun slowly opened his eyes and saw a little girl in a white dress fast asleep next to his desk in his room.

He shook his head helplessly. This girl was none other than Zi Yan, the problem child!

"Ziyan, why are you in my room again? I already told you I won't leave, you don't need to watch over me every day."

Xiao Yun got off the bed, went to the desk, and gently pinched two fingers together. Zi Yan opened her eyes, still sleepy.

"Um, Xiaoyun, why did you wake me up?"

"Hehe, I'm leaving Canaan Academy. I just wanted to let you know." Looking at the girl's sleepy appearance, Xiao Yun suddenly said this.

Sure enough, upon hearing that Xiao Yun was leaving, Zi Yan suddenly jumped up, clinging tightly to his waist like a koala, and shouted in her childish voice, "Don't go! Last time you lied and said you'd be back in six months! And what happened? I've even finished all the medicinal herbs! And you still haven't come back!"

"And now you still say you want to leave! Are you like those other people, afraid of me, secretly calling me the Brute King?!"

"Hehe, he's still a child at heart." Feeling the immense force constantly coming from his waist, Xiao Yun was relieved that his physical strength had reached the level of a sixth-order magical beast. Otherwise, with Zi Yan's move, he would have been spitting blood from the grip in the past.

"Alright, I was just kidding. I'm not leaving Canaan Academy." With continued force, Xiao Yun slowly pulled Zi Yan's small hands away, put the little girl down, and smiled, "If you want to sleep, you can sleep on the bed. You don't need to keep coming to my room."

Zi Yan rolled her eyes cutely and snorted a few words through her nose: "No, it's none of your business where I sleep."

"You've not only grown up, you're stronger too, you're not a little kid anymore. Humph! You can't play with me anymore."

"Hehe, do you still want today's pills?" Xiao Yun smiled and took out a jade bottle from his storage ring, placing it in front of Zi Yan.

call!

The moment the jade bottle was placed in front of Zi Yan, a small, snow-white hand snatched it away, poured out a pill, chewed it a few times, and then swallowed it down her throat.

"The pills you make are still the best. After you left, I asked others to make them, but they either wouldn't make them for me or they were still just as awful." An expression of enjoyment appeared on Zi Yan's face. This familiar taste made her feel somewhat intoxicated.

"Hehe, later..." Xiao Yun was about to say something when suddenly, the smile on his face disappeared, and he turned his head to look at a certain place, a cold look appearing on his face.

"Hmm?" Zi Yan looked at Xiao Yun with some confusion, not understanding what was going on.

"Han Feng has brought a large number of people, but most of them don't have a strong aura. Only a few are peak Dou Huang, and there are no Dou Zong experts."

Just as Xiao Yun realized something was wrong, Yao Lao's voice rang in his mind. He not only sensed the arrival of Han Feng and the others, but he could also sense their aura and cultivation level.

Xiao Yun nodded slightly, his expression solemn, and said, "Han Feng and his men have arrived. Let's go out first." After saying that, he flashed and appeared in mid-air from outside the window, with Zi Yan following closely behind, a cold glint in her eyes.

In mid-air, Xiao Yun and Zi Yan looked at the distant sky. The next moment, dozens of figures flashed beside them. The newcomers were Su Qian and other elders of Canaan Academy.

"Hmm? Xian'er, what's wrong with you..." In the crowd, Xiao Yun looked at a girl in a white dress with some surprise. She also had a pair of battle aura wings on her back, but they were dark purple, making her look somewhat eerie.

"What? I'm a four-star Dou Wang now, I can still help you." The girl glanced at Xiao Yun and said crisply.

"...Alright." Xiao Yun seemed to want to say something more, but suddenly many small black dots appeared on the distant horizon, exuding a powerful aura as they rushed towards the inner courtyard.

Gazing at the black dots on the horizon, Xiao Yun swallowed his words again, turned to Su Qian, and asked, "Elder, have all the students in the inner courtyard been evacuated?"

"Don't worry, after sensing Han Feng and the others' presence, I notified the instructors and students to leave."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yun nodded slightly, then bowed and said, "Esteemed elders, thank you for your help. After this matter is settled, I will definitely provide you with a reward that will satisfy you all."

"You brat, what are you saying? You're Elder Huo's disciple. We've all watched you grow up. How could we stand by and watch you get bullied? It's only right that we stand up for you!" Hu Qian glanced at Elder Huo beside him and said loudly.

"That's right, kid, you're welcome!"

"You are a member of Canaan Academy, of course we will protect you." Su Qian helped Xiao Yun up, then turned to the elders and said loudly, "Old friends! It seems there aren't enough corpses on the Death Tree! Let these scum from the Black Corner Region see if Canaan Academy is someone to be trifled with!"

After saying that, Su Qian took the lead and flew quickly towards Han Feng and the others. Seeing this, the others also urged their wings and followed closely behind Su Qian.

As the two groups drew closer, Xiao Yun and his companions began to smell a strong stench of blood.

"Hehe, Elder Su Qian, it's been a long time. How are you?

Nearly twenty figures hovered in mid-air. The leader was dressed in a blue alchemy robe with an exquisite "Maple" character embroidered on his chest. Who else could it be but Han Feng?

"Having heard that Xiao Yun, the former number one genius of Canaan Academy, has now become a sixth-grade alchemist, I am itching to invite Master Xiao Yun to visit Maple City with me. If you are willing to hand over Xiao Yun, we will leave immediately; otherwise, don't blame me for unleashing a massacre."

Looking at Su Qian in front of him, his gaze swept over the group behind him and immediately spotted Xiao Yun. His eyes instantly burned with fervor.

"Pah! You think you can take my disciple away? How can you come up with such a ridiculous excuse? Do you really think we're senile?" The hot-tempered old man spat out a mouthful of phlegm and pointed at Han Feng, cursing.

"Heh, old man Huo, I didn't expect that after all these years, your alchemy skills haven't improved, but your temper has become even more explosive?" Han Feng sneered, and a deep blue flame, like the sea, suddenly rose from his body, condensing into a flaming trident, radiating terrifying heat.

Pointing at Xiao Yun, Han Feng said grimly, "You little bastard, don't think you can protect yourself by escaping into Canaan Academy. Everything within you will soon belong to me!"

"If you want to hurt him, you'll have to get past me first!" Seeing the flames surging around Han Feng's body, Su Qian's fighting spirit also surged, and he shot out like lightning.

"Hahaha, I've long heard of Elder Su Qian's reputation. Today, we'll come and learn from him!" Before Su Qian could even get close to Han Feng, two figures, one in gold and one in silver, instantly appeared in front of Su Qian, blocking his charge. The two elders clenched their hands tightly, and an extremely powerful pale green battle aura surged out.

For a moment, he was able to fight Su Qian with the strength of a peak Dou Huang. The three sides continuously erupted with surging Dou Qi, and their figures flickered wildly.

"Gentlemen, Su Qian has been stopped. The rest of these old guys are up to you!" Han Feng sneered.

"Don't worry, Master Han, just focus on fighting Xiao Yun!"

Seeing that Su Qian was stopped by the two elders, Jin and Yin, the other powerful figures in the Black Corner Region were relieved. They then unleashed surging battle qi and rushed towards the many elders of Canaan Academy.

"Next, it's your turn, you little bastard! That old guy's soul power isn't much left, is it? Let's see how you escape my grasp this time!" With his deep blue battle aura wings flapping, Han Feng suddenly shot towards Xiao Yun.

"Hehe, Han Feng, you dog! Fan Lao is dead, and you're next! Even without using Yao Lao's power, I can still kill you!" The Crimson Blood Spear appeared in his hand, and Xiao Yun's body erupted with azure flames as he struck the trident with the spear.

"Blazing Flame Fist!"

"Sea Flame Halberd!"

The cyan flames and blue flames collided violently, and the destructive power of the strange fire surged out, even burning away the surrounding天地能量 (heaven and earth energy).

"Hahaha, you've improved! You're a five-star Dou Huang now! No wonder you were able to kill Fan Lao!" Han Feng's killing intent intensified. Xiao Yun's terrifying cultivation speed shocked him. He understood that if he missed this opportunity, he would never be able to kill Xiao Yun again.

"But I'm no ordinary alchemist! Compared to combat, you're still far from being a match for me!" Han Feng was a powerful figure who had been a peak Dou Huang for many years, unlike other alchemists who weren't skilled in combat. Or rather, every powerful figure who could become famous in the Black Corner Region had been forged by stepping over countless corpses!

"Bang! Bang!"

The spear and trident clashed repeatedly, but Han Feng quickly realized something was wrong. The opponent's strength was simply too great. Even though his own fighting spirit was stronger, his palm was still throbbing painfully from the impact.

With another collision, using the recoil force from the spear, Han Feng wanted to create distance between himself and Xiao Yun, preparing to wear down the latter with his powerful battle qi. He had just retreated a hundred meters away.

The boy in front of him had lightning flashing on his body and thunder rumbling. Even with his dynamic vision, he could only see a blurry afterimage left in mid-air.

"Damn, so fast? This speed is probably comparable to that of a Dou Zong." Just as he was thinking this, the alarm suddenly went off. He quickly swept his trident behind him, and the sound of weapons clashing was heard. In the rush, Han Feng's figure was instantly sent flying.

"You reacted quickly, but will you be so lucky next time?" A faint voice echoed in the sky, accompanied by thunder, and Xiao Yun's figure disappeared from Han Feng's sight once again.

"Damn it!" Han Feng's fighting spirit surged as he scanned his surroundings, wary of Xiao Yun's appearance. But soon, he discovered that Xiao Yun had appeared in another location.

"Yan, watch out for Xiao Yun's sneak attack!"

The keyboard is really unresponsive. Some letters don't respond after being pressed for a long time, which is seriously affecting my typing speed!

Ahem, let me explain. Today's article is still 10,000 words, but I didn't sleep at all last night. I got up in the middle of the night to type, and my mind is all muddled. I'll get a good night's sleep tonight!
