Within their camp, teachers and students of the Jia Nan Academy, along with the guards, were engaged in a fierce battle against the cloaked figures.

Each person had found their adversary and was fiercely resisting. Some were even facing two or three opponents alone. Despite their efforts, the situation remained significantly unfavorable for the Jia Nan Academy.

Lu Yunxiao moved with his sword, constantly shifting the battlefield. His targets were those cloaked figures at the Dou Zhe level. With his strength and the sharpness of his Rainbow Sword, most of these Dou Zhe-level cloaked figures were almost instantly killed.

After a while, nearly twenty of these cloaked figures had fallen to his hands, significantly reducing the pressure on many students.

However, such a remarkable performance inevitably drew the attention of other cloaked figures.

"What a slippery little brat. Old Wang, deal with that lady. I'll take care of that brat," one of the cloaked figures fighting against a female teacher from the Jia Nan Academy said to their companion.

"Alright, Old Li, go ahead. I can handle her alone," the figure known as Old Wang replied loudly.

"Got it!" Old Li nodded, shooting directly toward Lu Yunxiao's direction.

The female teacher from the Jia Nan Academy tried to intervene but was firmly engaged by Old Wang.

...

"Ha!" Lu Yunxiao lightly shouted, the tip of his Rainbow Sword piercing directly into the throat of one of the cloaked figures, retracting the sword afterward, causing blood to spatter.

As he relaxed, he suddenly felt a strong gust of wind behind him. In an instant, he moved, evading it.

At the spot where he stood moments ago, a green fist imprint struck, leaving a deep dent in the ground.

Lu Yunxiao's eyes narrowed slightly, instantly focusing as he observed the surging green energy on the cloaked figure's body. He calmly uttered two words, "Dou Shi?"

"Indeed, brat. Enjoy killing just now? Now, die for me," the cloaked figure's eyes gleamed with malice as his hand formed into claws, fiercely aiming at Lu Yunxiao.

"You’re only a Dou Shi, yet dare to boast and speak arrogantly?" Lu Yunxiao didn't flinch, facing the claw head-on and striking back with a punch.

"Profound Tidal Fist!" With a punch, a fierce burst of wide-ranging momentum erupted with the sound of raging waves.

The cloaked figure's pupils contracted. Greenlight shimmered on his claws as they clashed with Lu Yunxiao's fist.

"Boom!" The collision of their attacks resounded, causing Lu Yunxiao to stagger backward three steps, while the cloaked figure also retreated three steps to stabilize himself.

Their exchange proved the two were evenly matched.

"Brat, not bad skills," the cloaked figure expressed surprise, seemingly taken aback that a six-star Dou Zhe like Lu Yunxiao could stand toe-to-toe with his own two-star Dou Shi strength.

"You're not too shabby yourself," Lu Yunxiao calmly replied. Facing a Dou Shi indeed presented a worthy challenge for him.

"Heh, praising yourself for just that? That strike earlier was just a casual one. Next, I'll show you the true strength of a Dou Shi," the cloaked figure's expression turned serious as his Dou Qi surged again.

"You seem intimidating, but that strike earlier was just me humoring you," Lu Yunxiao coldly remarked. Compared to his prowess in martial arts, swordsmanship was where he excelled.

With sword energy emanating, a sharp aura enveloped Lu Yunxiao. The two clashed again.

The Rainbow Sword traced peculiar trajectories, aiming straight for the cloaked figure's throat.

The cloaked figure swiftly maneuvered, using a green long spear to block, then immediately thrust toward Lu Yunxiao's chest and abdomen.

Lu Yunxiao retracted his longsword, clashing against the long spear, deflecting it.

The two exchanged blows dozens of times in an instant.

"Yunxiao, such incredible strength!" Teacher Ruo Ling forced her opponent back with a whip, her gaze fixated on the distant battle, showing a hint of amazement.

Lu Yunxiao's talent was undeniable, surpassing even the S rank potential. Yet, his combat prowess, capable of evenly matching a Dou Shi, was surprising.

"Perhaps, this is what a true genius is," Teacher Ruo Ling muttered to herself, wielding her whip again to confront her opponent.

"Swoosh!" Lu Yunxiao's figure slashed his longsword emitting glimmers of cold light, enveloping the cloaked figure entirely.

Although the cloaked figure's Dou Qi surged, wielding a green long spear to fend off Lu Yunxiao's sword light, his expression turned grim. Lu Yunxiao's attacks not only didn't resemble those of a typical Dou Zhe, but his peculiar Dou qi severely weakened his strength.

From an initially even footing, he was now completely on the defensive.

"Break!" Lu Yunxiao lightly shouted, his Rainbow Sword forcibly breaking through the defense of the cloaked figure's green long spear and piercing his Dou qi clock, leaving a wound on his body, and causing blood to flow.

The cloaked figure groaned in pain, thrusting his long spear, but Lu Yunxiao evaded, maintaining a two-meter distance, facing the cloaked figure squarely, a drop of blood falling from the tip of his Rainbow Sword.

"Wood-elemental Dou qi. Your luck is truly terrible," Lu Yunxiao calmly remarked a hint of playfulness in his eyes. The Metal element countered Wood, especially with his innate Metal element, making Wood-elemental Dou qi vulnerable.

After this round of battle, he had gained the upper hand.

Even the Dou qi cloak that a Dou Shi relied on for fame became as fragile as a piece of paper under the elemental restraint, easily torn.

"What kind of strange Dou qi is this? Metal-elemental Dou qi shouldn't be like this," the cloaked figure's face shook, eyes showing signs of fear. Lu Yunxiao's Dou qi penetration and sharpness were unexpectedly powerful.

"People who are about to die don't need to know these things. Last time, luck wasn't on your side—I didn't get to kill a Second Rank Sand Blight Spider. But today, killing a Dou Shi is not bad either," Lu Yunxiao's voice dropped. He leaped high into the air, his longsword thrusting.

In an instant, sword shadows pervaded, sparkling and brilliant. This perfect sword light seemed to descend from the heavens, piercing directly towards the cloaked figure.
