Chapter 31: Battle Starts (2)

The man immediately replied and soon disappeared to inform the various parties.

After the man left, the old man looked toward Nanyuan Mid-grade Academy once again, mumbling, “Great Xia Prefecture... Are they really unable to deploy even a few Soaring Realm personnel?”

…

“A`Yu!”

Chen Hao was squatting at the canteen’s entrance with Su Yu, looking around while saying softly, “Why are we waiting here? A teacher called out earlier for all the students to gather to have an academy meeting after school. Aren’t we going?”

“We aren’t going.”

Su Yu held onto the blade in his hand and said in a soft voice, “It’s safer in smaller numbers. When there are more people... it’ll be a little dangerous.”

“Huh?”

Chen Hao was puzzled. Hence, Su Yu said softly, “Stop with the crap. There might be trouble today. Members from the All-Races Sect are coming! Hence, we’ll just stay here. There are fewer people here...”

“No, A`Yu, you’re saying... that the All-Races Sect’s members are coming? Then we have to hurry up and meet up with the teachers. We’re just in the Origin Opening Realm and not in the Thousand Pound Realm...”

Chen Hao panicked.

......

Well, he wasn’t really that scared.

There had been drills conducted and explanations given by the academy on how they should react in situations such as encountering members of the All-Races Sect or going to the Allskies Battlefield.

During times like these, they should gather and meet up with the teachers.

The teachers would protect them.

“There are too few teachers and most of them have to fight, with a minority left behind to protect the students. There will at most be three to five teachers left behind in each class to protect the students. Given that there are many students in the class, in the event of any dangers, the teachers won’t be able to protect everyone.”

Su Yu said softly, “They will have less pressure if they have two fewer people to protect.”

“But... what if we encounter... A`Yu, let’s go back!”

Chen Hao started to become a little anxious.

Su Yu smiled and said, “Don’t worry. We’re just two students wandering by ourselves and are in the Origin Opening Realm. The experts won’t bother to give us a second look.”

“We’d die even if we were to encounter those in the Thousand Pound Realm...”

“That’s why we should try our best to hide well. If we were to really encounter enemies...”

Su Yu looked up toward Chen Hao. “Do you trust me?”

“I do.”

“If we were to encounter one, you could just start scolding them with all you’ve got, getting them to try to kill you first. We won’t be standing together but stationed on different sides, one on the left and the other on the right. If he were to kill you, he’d definitely not be on guard against an insignificant student like me...”

Chen Hao was stunned. (You’re so vicious!)

.

(Even if we are about to die, you want to die later than me! That’s too vicious!)

“I’ll go kill him!”

“…”

Chen Hao became crestfallen. (What kind of joke is that? You’re just at the third level of the Origin Opening Realm and can’t even break through their defenses, let alone kill them. You must be crazy!)

“If you trust me, we’ll do this! We mustn’t go over to where the academy head and the others are. We’ll just be creating trouble for them. We mustn’t go to the classes either or once again, we will just be creating trouble for them. We’re too weak. In such situations, we’re just targets…”

“Then the other students are targets as well. Should we call them over and hide together...”

“Stupid. How are we supposed to hide with so many people? They’ll really die if they wander out by themselves. We still have a chance.”

Su Yu wasn’t too scared either. His father had told him a lot of stories of killing the myriad races, and the academies’ eventual goal was to also teach them to kill members of the myriad races. There was nothing to be scared about.

He just felt a little unsettled since this was his first time encountering enemies. He was afraid that his legs might turn limp from the fright.

If Chen Hao were to really start scolding the enemy and they were to go after him, what was he going to do if his legs turned limp?

Moreover, what would happen if they were to encounter two enemies?

What about three?

“It’ll be alright. The experts will definitely go after the other experts. Those who look for the scattered students in the academy must be the weak ones since the students are too weak. Since there aren’t any students in the Thousand Pound Realm, there isn’t a need for them to group up to search.

“There’s no reason to send three or five people out to do something that one person can do by themselves.

“The academy isn’t small. If they were to really group up, they’d have to send several thousand people. I don’t believe that they can have several thousand people infiltrating in. Then Nanyuan would be too foolish.

“Moreover, if there were really so many people, staying with the teachers would also be a dead end. There shouldn’t be a situation like this.”

Su Yu assessed the situation in his heart while dragging Chen Hao into the canteen. He then looked for a corner and said in a soft voice, “You’ll hide here, squatting and looking like you’re shivering in fear. If it’s just one enemy, you just make a little commotion by yourself. If there are two... then run! Run with all your might!”

There was a small door here, and Chen Hao could run out through that. He quickly nodded. “Then what about you?”

Su Yu pointed to a corner at the side. “I’ll hide over there. Don’t look in my direction, or you’ll be sending me to my death. Do you understand?”

“I understand!”

Chen Hao immediately nodded and then said with a crestfallen face, “A`Yu, why not... let’s just go look for my father?”

“That’s nonsense! If we were to go out by ourselves right now, we’d be courting death!”

Su Yu scolded softly, “I have no idea what the exact arrangements are, but your father and the others probably have missions too. Don’t go thinking about useless things. Just pray that my legs won’t go limp later. Otherwise, you’ll be a goner!”

“A`Yu, you’re going to kill?”

Chen Hao said with a bitter face, “You won’t be able to do it. Why don’t I hide and be the one to give them a sneak attack?”

“You?”

Su Yu couldn’t be bothered with him. He took a deep breath and said, “You’ll have difficulty to even break through their defenses. Just watch and see! Moreover, according to the rules, if we can kill a member of the All-Races Sect, Hao`zi, you’ll have hope to get into a war academy!”

The moment Su Yu said this, Chen Hao’s gaze instantly gleamed!

He had forgotten the bit of fear he had felt earlier.

That was right. The academy had a rule that if they were to kill a member of the All-Races Sect and could prove their identity, it’d get them additional points.

Of course, this rule hadn’t been imposed for many years as all the students were in the Origin Opening Realm. How were they supposed to kill a member of the All-Races Sect?
