Full-Time Magister: A Hellish Start, But the Shadow King

Chapter 70: Let's just charge straight in, no more pretending!

Once it reaches the boundary marker, the camel can no longer proceed.

The wind camel has a keen sense of smell; just smelling the aura of a powerful demon makes its legs go weak, and it dares not cross the boundary line.

Everyone released the camel, letting it go back on its own; the rest of the journey was up to the camel to walk.

Before we had gone five kilometers, we could hear the roar of sandstorms all around us.

"Sand Tigers are prevalent in this area, and these creatures are extremely powerful among warrior-level beings."

Lingling had done her homework for this trial and instantly recognized the type of demon.

Sure enough, just a few seconds after Lingling finished speaking, Sha Xiaohu poked his head out from behind the hills.

Those eyes gleamed with a fierce green light, staring intently at us, clearly regarding us as prey!

"Seven Sand Howling Tigers, what bad luck!" Zhao Manyan paused, then added:

"But when they run into Brother Cheng, they're the ones who get unlucky."

As soon as Zhao Manyan finished speaking, dozens of black short swords formed from the power of shadow flew out.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!!!

The black short sword pierced the bodies of the seven general-level Sand Roaring Tigers with lightning speed and precision, just like a dart!

The Sand Roaring Tiger instantly let out a painful roar. The roar was extremely penetrating and deafening, making people's hair stand on end!

But the roar didn't last long before it subsided.

No one sensed that terrifying warrior-level aura anymore; Sha Xiaohu had lost all life force and was completely dead.

"Seven warriors... were instantly killed?" Chen Ying looked at Cheng Xiao in disbelief.

Although she knew Cheng Xiaoqiang, this was just too exaggerated, wasn't it?

Moreover, this was a casual strike from Cheng Xiao, killing him with effortless ease.

Not only Chen Ying, but also Mo Fan and Zhao Manyan were stunned.

"Brother Cheng, what's this trick of yours?" Mo Fan couldn't help but ask.

"I've broken through to a higher level, so I tried out the new skills I learned. They're quite useful," Cheng Xiao explained.

"Oh, high-ranking, really high-ranking?!"

Everyone looked at Cheng Xiao in unison.

Xin Xia, Mu Nu Jiao, and Ling Ling had known about this for a long time, so they were used to it.

Lingling, as the hunter's partner, naturally knew this, and Xinxia and Mu Nujiao knew Cheng Xiao inside and out.

"Brother Cheng, your cultivation speed is just too exaggerated," Mo Fan couldn't help but say.

"Yeah, it's like he's got a cheat code," Zhao Manyan added sourly.

Originally, he was at the same level as Cheng Xiao, and he was already feeling hopeless about Cheng Xiao's combat strength.

Now that Cheng Xiao has surpassed them and broken through to the advanced level, just how strong is Cheng Xiao's true combat power now?!

However, with this guarantee in place, this trip can be considered absolutely safe.

"There are probably still quite a few obstacles blocking the way ahead, Bell, clear them out," Cheng Xiao said.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Bell flapped its wings and excitedly rushed into the long, sandy road ahead.

With Commander Bell leading the way, the group continued their journey to the Sand River without encountering any more demons.

As we reached the banks of the Shawang River, night fell.

After discussion, everyone decided to rest on the shore for one night before continuing their journey.

"Brother Mo Fan, there's no need to set up another tent. Brother Cheng Xiao and I will share one tent," Xin Xia reminded him.

Several big question marks popped into Mo Fan's mind, and then the corner of his mouth twitched.

"Well... I'm also sharing a tent with Cheng Xiao," Mu Nujiao said.

Upon hearing this, everyone stopped what they were doing and couldn't help but look towards where Cheng Xiao, Xin Xia, and Mu Nu Jiao were.

Mo Fan's lips twitched.

It's one thing for the three of you to secretly play together on ordinary days, but how come you dare to say it so openly now?!

Zhao Manyan considered himself to have seen countless women, but after witnessing Cheng Xiao's level of skill during his last experience in Jinlin City, he felt ashamed of his own inferiority.

Seeing this scene, I wasn't surprised at all, and silently gave a thumbs up.

"How come so many girls are attracted to this guy? Even my sister is?"

Lingling was very puzzled.

But upon closer reflection, it seems to make sense.

After all, even Lingling herself likes to cling to Cheng Xiao.

..............................

The next morning.

After everyone packed their things, they prepared to cross the Shawang River.

"This Sand River is dangerous, guarded by elemental beings—the White Sand Demon Soldiers." Lingling looked at Cheng Xiao:

"How will we get through this?"

"They're just a bunch of slave-level creatures, let's just kill them," Cheng Xiao said.

"Charge them? How?"

As soon as Chen Ying opened her mouth, she felt a chill behind her.

Looking back, the yellow sand and soil behind me were already covered by deathly energy.

A flawless version after careful inspection!

Beneath the thick aura of death, all sorts of shadowy undead soldiers crawled out.

Shadow Wolves, Shadow Eagles, Shadow Tigers, Shadow Crocodiles. One hundred shadow soldiers, all at the general level!

"That's it, let's charge in."

At Cheng Xiao's command, a hundred warrior-level shadow soldiers stepped into the Sand River.

The White Demon Sand Soldiers were merely servant-level creatures, and even with the advantage of terrain, they couldn't stop these hundred warrior-level shadow soldiers!

As for the White Sand Giants at the Warrior level, kill them without hesitation!

Cheng Xiao's Shadow Legion currently has over four thousand general-level shadow soldiers, most of whom are White Demon Eagles.

Soldiers skilled in aerial warfare are not enough; luckily, there are many White Sand Giants in the Sand River.

And in the northern corner of the Scorching Plains, there are also all sorts of fire elemental creatures.

"General-level, they're all General-level?!"

The scene before them left their companions completely dumbfounded.

The previous hundred servant-level units could be barely explained, but releasing a hundred warrior units directly is something else entirely.

Good grief, they're blatantly cheating, not even bothering to pretend anymore, huh?

"Let's go," Cheng Xiao said, pulling his stunned teammates back to reality.

"Brother Cheng, do you dare to go any further?" Mo Fan was at a loss for words.

Having a single Swift Star Wolf of Warrior level is enough for him to break into the top 100 of the main campus!

So, Cheng Xiao has a hundred generals like this?!

Everyone reacted similarly to Mo Fan, as if their understanding had been shattered.

..............................

Cheng Xiao's shadow soldiers slaughtered all the white sand demon soldiers blocking the way along the Sha Wang River, leaving no chance for anyone to even make a move.

There's nothing I can do; even if I wanted to make a move, I couldn't find a target to kill.

If you're not careful, the enemy will be dead!

Seeing Cheng Xiao's exaggerated combat power, the light of hope in Chen Ying's eyes grew stronger and stronger.

If she can persuade Cheng Xiao to help, the Fire Calamity Fruit will be basically secured, and her mother's injuries can also be healed!

Just as she was thinking this, a sudden commotion arose at the northern corner of the Zhuoyuan Plain ahead, as if the entire earth was trembling.

"Fire tribulation! It's a fire tribulation baptism!" Chen Ying's expression changed drastically.

"Holy crap, how come we just got ashore and already got a big one?!" Zhao Manyan stared in disbelief, instinctively looking at Cheng Xiao:

"Brother Cheng, should we run?"

Stand beside me.

Cheng Xiao's deep, dark eyes shone with a dazzling dimensional silver light.

Dominator's power!
