The expressions of the surrounding disciples made the woman's face even worse. He was really humiliated.

"SILENCE! You still dare to argue?"

Xika looked at the woman strangely.

"I don't know if your head isn't working properly, or your ears are having a distraction. Or maybe both."

Once again, Xika's words managed to make the disciples present laugh amusedly. Xingli though displayed a faint smile.

WHOSHS!

A BLAR!

BRACKET!

A ball of fire fell from the sky. Then the ball turned into a middle-aged man with a ferocious face wearing a red robe.

"Wah wow......It's rare that I see Protector Lan in trouble. Need help?"

In Xika's head, Huo Bing's voice again sounded.

'The old man also has the same aura as those who watched over us before. Be careful. I'm sure his arrival wasn't well-intentioned.'

Protector Lan's face looked irritated. Of all the protectors, why should this man come? But at least he wants to help. I hope so.

Seeing that Protector Lan did not reply, the old man turned his gaze to Xika.

"Hey, kid. I've been watching you before. I know you're wrong. Let's bow down and apologize if you still want to be in this academy."

Elder Lan gasped.

"Older Yan!"

But the one called did not answer. He just looked at Xika and waited for her to kneel.

Xika smiled. As Huo Bing said, this old man did not come with good intentions.

"Hm? Come again one fool."

This time only Huo Bing, Heiliao, and Xingli were laughing. The rest of the existing disciples actually wanted to laugh as well, but they did not dare, given the reputation of the notoriously ruthless Protector Yan Xiaolu.

"What's? You dare call me stupid?"

"of course. If you've been watching me before, and you've seen everything that's happened, then you should know who's right. But you're accusing me of guilt. If not stupid, what else is it?"

Elder Yan's nose fireworks. His face turned red, not from being out of breath, but from burning anger. As the Protector of Fire, he was known as a ferocious man. All the disciples, even the elders were afraid of him. No one dared to insult him so blatantly. Call him stupid twice.

"Son, I have to admit you have the guts. But your guts aren't in the right place." Elder Yan smirked. He would not let anyone who insulted him go away. It won't.

"Times?" sutu Xika without fear.

"I've seen how sharp your mouth is, son. Let me see how sharp it is after I burn it."

Elder Yan burned his body. Then ran over to Xika.

"I'm counting on you." Xika smiled as she looked at Huo Bing. The bird nodded confidently.

Huo Bing did say that she would not help Xika. But now the problem is beyond estimation. After all his current opponent was an Elder who, according to Huo Bing, was of a higher rank than an elder.

When Elder Yan approached, Huo Bing spread out both of his hands. Then a silhouette of a bird formed around him. The same bird as its original form.

He flew up and used both of his translucent claws to bring Elder Yan flying.

Below, Xika smiled looking at Huo Bing. Looks like the bird found a new technique. While Xika was smiling, Elder Lan looked at Huo Bing's increasingly shrinking figure with shock in her eyes. He had never seen that technique Huo Bing had used before.

Then Elder Lan lowered her gaze and looked at the smiling Xika. In the next second, Xika had already disappeared.

Elder Lan's senses said that Xika reappeared not far nearby. But he did not expect Xika to appear with a knife in his hand to kill Lu Bei.

Immediately, he darted to stop Xika. But unfortunately, Huo Bing appeared behind him and said,

"Ups, miss."

Then with his right claw, Huo Bing gripped Elder Lan's shoulder before flying back in the sky while his left claw was gripping Elder Yan.

"What"

Xika did not know what else Elder Lan was trying to say because the woman had now soared high above.

Meanwhile, Lu Bei who was in front of him had now opened his eyes and looked at Xika's blade that was about to kill him. The girl went straight back.

Xika clicked her tongue in annoyance for failing to kill Lu Bei. He came back to Lu Bei. Unfortunately, the girl did not remain silent.

Lu Bei whistled and all the girls in green dresses and wearing knife earrings moved forward. Including Lu Bei, there were a total of seven people. He stood behind them while six others pointed their guns at Xika.

Some use spears, knives, swords, scarves, chains, and fans. While Lu Bei himself, coated his nails with the wind.

"Oh? Whatisthis? A close combat?" Instead of being afraid, Xika instead looked excited.

When the seven girls ran towards Xika, Xika also came running to greet them. But he's not alone. Beside him, stood the ice girl who faithfully accompanied.

Swush!

Xika throws some cards to break up the girls. Three people to the side to avoid the Xika card. Xingli welcomed the three people. While the remaining four people including Lu Bei faced Xika.

Lu Bei rewarded Xika with his claws, while beside him another girl showered her knife.

Xika fended off Lu Bei's fingernails and pushed him in the other direction. For the knife girl, before the knife hit Xika, Xika had already nailed her head to lose balance. It was just that Xika added a kick to the knife girl.

Girl knife glides flying. But another girl came with her sword aiming for Xika's head from behind. Xika ducked down and swept the sword girl down. Xika was about to give another attack, but a shawl held her hand.

Even if it had been pulled, his hand still did not want to move. That must be a nice shawl. Xika raised her other hand but the other shawl held her hand back.

"Good!"

Near his feet, the sword girl stood up and approached Xika. Lu Bei also came from another direction.

"Is your shawl heat resistant?" xika asked the shawled girl who was behind her. Not yet able to answer, Xika had burned it.

"Well, then there's no other way." Xika sighed.

Lu Bei came with his fingernails aiming for Xika's face, while the sword girl was aiming for her feet. Maybe he wants revenge.

Xika jumped dodging the sword while giving Lu Bei a deep kick in the face. The shawl in his hand was pulled back to make him fail to land on foot.

Inside the scarf that wrapped Xika's hand, a crack in space appeared and took Xika's hand out of the shawl. Once free, Xika instantly caught the scarf with both hands and pulled it tightly.

The girl who owned the shawl was drawn forward and would hit Xika's feet, if only Xika did not stop her attack to avoid throwing knives.

He turned around and looked at the knife girl he had kicked standing even though her legs were still trembling. It seems like Xika's kick is quite powerful. The girl walked with a knife in her hand.

Seeing Xika's concentration being disturbed, the girl in a scarf twisted both of her shawls to slam Xika. But unfortunately, Xika realized his movements, as a result he turned before hitting the ground instead of Xika.

On the side, Heiliao simply stood in silence. He made the same decision as Huo Bing. It won't help Xika unless it's an urgent situation. Huo Bing had already overcome the two Protectors. So he won't intervene. After all a group of girls cannot be considered an urgent situation.

So rather than Xika, Heiliao focused his gaze on Huo Bing. The bird fights well.

Previously, Huo Bing's silhouette was colorless. Now, the silhouette is exactly the same color as it was when he lived first. Blue and red. Then the two colors seeped into his body while his silhouette disappeared.

Huo Bing was already used to fighting against more opponents himself. It was clearly visible from his movements facing Elder Yan and Elder Lan. As for those Elders, the two were unable to cooperate properly.

When Elder Yan threw his fireball, Elder Lan spouted high-pressure water. It should be a good move if Huo Bing did not dodge. Elder Lan's spray extinguished Elder Yan's fireball.

Amidst the confusion, Huo Bing smashed into Elder Yan's face simultaneously while kicking Elder Lan's stomach. Heiliao smiled seeing that. Neither Xika nor Huo Bing were the types that would budge just because their opponents were women.

Men or women, the same. And Heiliao was grateful that Xika and Huo Bing's movements were just as ferocious no matter facing men or women.

Elder Lan floated backwards. He directed both of his palms and a water bubble appeared enveloping Huo Bing. It meant to make the bird unable to breathe. After the bird fainted, then Elder Yan came forward and struck Huo Bing.

But Elder Yan could not read Elder Lan's plan. He is not very good at making plans. Instead of waiting for Huo Bing to finish his breath in Elder Lan's bubble, the middle-aged man instead directly smashed his fist and vaporized the bubble.

"Stupid! Why did you punch me in the girdle?"

"I thought the bubble would burst when I punched it!"

"That's a water bubble! What did you expect?"

Elder Yan did not have time to reply because from behind the water vapor, Huo Bing's feet appeared to hit his stomach hard. But Elder Yan was not the type to be silent when the enemy managed to attack him. He also has to retaliate.

After successfully stopping himself, Elder Yan fired hot-temperature fireballs. Unfortunately, Huo Bing could easily avoid that move. He clenched his hand, and the fireballs instantly froze.

Behind Huo Bing, Elder Lan made a rope from the water and was about to tie the bird. But Huo Bing was aware of that. He opened his fist and the frozen balls of fire broke into sharp pieces of ice aimed at Elder Lan.

MY SHUR!

A water screen appeared holding the ice. But Huo Bing was still not finished. He waved his right hand and even more ice fragments appeared again attacking Elder Lan.

The set!

A BLAR!

Elder Yan advanced with a fire stick in his hand. Huo Bing greeted him fearlessly. His ice-covered right hand, with his fire-burning left hand managed to leave Elder Yan troubled.

When Elder Lan finished fending off Huo Bing's ice chips, he joined them. But Elder Lan did not manage to dodge Huo Bing's entire attack. Her blue robe was now filled with tears revealing her white skin.

Huo Bing played the ice and fire in his hand casually. Sometimes fire in the right hand, sometimes fire in the left hand. Depending conditions.

After a short fight, Elder Yan and Elder Lan moved away from Huo Bing to take a breath. From that short fight, they lost. It was unbelievable, but they had to admit that the man before them was indeed unusually strong.

Though both his aura and cultivation level were the same as the two of them. Besides, they win the amount. But why would he win while they lose? The answer was simple, because Huo Bing was more experienced than the two of them. But of course both of them don't know that.

In their eyes, Huo Bing was only a teenage boy who possessed extraordinary strength. Not a half-baked bird, ups, a magical bird that's hundreds of years old.

"Friends, you managed to injure both of my protectors until it was like that. You're amazing."

A voice appeared making Huo Bing as well as the two Elders shocked. Huo Bing turned to his right side.

At first nothing was seen there. But moments later, a bald man was seen bathed in sunlight.

"You even realized my existence. Again, you're amazing." The old man smiled.

Below, Heiliao was also aware of the appearance of the unnatural bald man. In an instant, it disappeared from where it was.

When Huo Bing looked at the bald man warily, Elder Yan considered it an opportunity to attack Huo Bing. So he opened his mouth and spouted fire.

Unfortunately, the black hole appeared and swallowed its flames a moment later. Another black hole appeared near the bald man and spewed out a burst of flames.

The bald man raised his hand and the fire danced around him, before disappearing slowly.

"You have an amazing friend, too. I wouldn't have noticed it if it wasn't for this black hole."

A SHOCK!

Next to Huo Bing, Heiliao appeared. He looked at the bald man as carefully as Huo Bing. While the man who was stared at was just a friendly smile.

Xika who saw Heiliao disappear just a moment before knew that something must have happened. Huo Bing was more than capable of facing those two Elders. If Heiliao had joined as well, something would have gone wrong.

SRETT!

He threw his cards and made all the Green Viper girls who were still conscious duck down. Then he approached Xingli while extending a hand.

"Xinelli!"

This time, the girl did not refuse Xika's hand and reached for her hand.

WET!

Transparent wings appeared behind Xika's back. He packed it up and flew towards Huo Bing along with Xingli.

WHUK!

Xika appeared beside Heiliao with Xingli's waist in her hands. I don't know since when the handrails turned into hugs. Perhaps according to Xika it was easier to bring Xingli flying this way. It seemed Xika herself was unaware of that. But Xingli realized it. It just seems like this is not a good time to talk.

The bald man stared at the appearance of Xika and Xingli with the same smile.

"Well, whoa. Now, my four magical disciples have gathered."
