A scream was followed by a dull thud as a heavy object fell to the ground.
Then came even louder shouts and the sound of tables and chairs breaking, and the crowd scattered to both sides like a school of startled fish.
A violent surge of soul power emanated from that direction, carrying a distinct air of tension.
Bibi Dong's eyes narrowed.
The Shui sisters instinctively wanted to back away.
Yu Xiaoheng, however, made a move.
Without the slightest hesitation, he moved swiftly and stood directly in front of Bibi Dong and the Shui sisters.
Broad shoulders act like a wall, keeping the chaos at bay.
"Stay close to me."
Yu Xiaoheng left without turning his head and said a sentence.
He didn't ask what had happened; he simply acted on instinct, protecting these "teammates" who were still of use to him at the moment.
Then, he strode forward against the flow of fleeing people, heading first towards the center of the chaos.
Chapter 320 Elephant Armor Sect?
As you walk through the crowded streets, the fluctuations in soul power become increasingly clear.
The noise was like boiling water.
Ahead stood a magnificent domed building, which was the registration point for the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament.
However, at this moment, the once spacious gate was completely blocked.
A dozen or so towering figures stood there, shirtless, with dark skin and bulging muscles like they were carved from granite. Each of them was over two meters tall, and standing there, they were like a thick wall of flesh, blocking out most of the sunlight.
Elephant Armor Clan.
Only direct disciples of this sect would possess such an exaggerated physique.
Although there were many Soul Masters around, no one dared to step forward and risk offending them.
Although the Elephant Armor Sect is only one of the four lower sects, it is still one of the seven major sects. Backed by a huge force, and with its thick skin and tough defense, even a Soul Master of the same level might not be able to break through its defenses even after fighting for a day and a night.
"What a bunch of brainless brutes."
Bibi Dong stood behind Yu Xiaoheng, her eyes flashing with disgust beneath the brim of her hat.
Moreover, it was the Elephant Armor Sect and others who participated in the attack on the Blue Lightning Camp.
Bibi Dong finally let down her guard, and she even had a kind of hallucination... as if she were having a conversation with Yu Xiaoheng.
But the next time we met, the person...
They all died.
Liu Mei clutched her injured wrist and glanced at him with a hint of schadenfreude.
"Looks like someone's had some bad luck."
Her voice carried a twisted sense of pleasure born of pain. Seeing others suffer when she herself was down on her luck offered a degree of solace.
Yu Xiaoheng remained silent.
With his hands in his pockets and his gaze fixed straight ahead, he looked through the gaps in the thick arms of the Elephant Armor Sect disciples at the group of people they had blocked inside.
It was a team wearing blue-purple uniforms.
The clothes were embroidered with silver lightning patterns, which appeared somewhat dim in the shadows of the not-so-bright hall.
Yu Xiaoheng's pupils contracted slightly.
Thunder Academy.
Or rather, the Thunder team he once led.
The person cornered by the Elephant Armor Sect like a fly being shooed away was none other than his former teammate.
The leader was tall and handsome, but his face was ashen and his eyes were bloodshot.
Lei Hao.
Beside him stood a tall, short-haired woman, gripping Lei Hao's arm tightly, her face full of indignation. That was Qin Yue, Lei Hao's girlfriend, and also the team's offensive-type Soul Master.
There was also a young man with slightly dark skin who was pointing at the people of the Elephant Armor Sect and cursing them.
That's Feng Kai.
"Huyan Qing! You've gone too far!"
The veins on Feng Kai's neck bulged, and spittle flew everywhere.
"This is Wuhun City! According to the rules, registration should be done on a first-come, first-served basis! We've been waiting here for an hour already, how long are you going to keep occupying this place?"
The one known as Huyan Qing was the largest among the group of people from the Elephant Armor Sect.
He looked to be under twenty, but he was already nearly 2.5 meters tall, with a face full of fat, like a moving small mountain.
Hearing Feng Kai's roar, Hu Yanqing casually picked at his ear and then flicked his fingers with a disdainful look.
"It's noisy."
He said in a muffled voice.
"Who said we're taking over? Aren't we just checking the list? We Elephant Armor Sect have a lot of people and our brains work slowly, so what's wrong with taking a little more time? If your Thunder Academy can't wait, then go back. Anyway, participating will only make you look bad."
"you!"
Feng Kai trembled with rage, his soul power surging across his body, with faint flashes of lightning.
"What? You want to make a move?"
Hu Yanqing stepped forward.
"boom!"
The ground trembled slightly.
He looked down at Feng Kai, who was two heads shorter than him, his eyes full of provocation.
"Come on, hit me here. If Grandpa takes even half a step back, I'll take your surname."
A burst of laughter erupted from the crowd.
The disciples of the Elephant Armor Sect stood with their arms crossed, watching the Thunder Academy students as if they were watching a monkey show.
In Wuhun City, fighting will result in disqualification, but verbal provocation and physical assault fall into a gray area of the rules.
The Elephant Armor Sect understood this perfectly.
Lei Hao, who had been silent all along, finally spoke.
"Huyan Qing, you did this on purpose."
Lei Hao's voice was a little hoarse as he stared intently at the other person.
"When Yu... was around, your Elephant Armor Sect didn't dare utter a sound. What are you pretending to be now?"
Upon hearing the unfinished surname, Hu Yanqing's smile froze for a moment, then became even more ferocious.
"before?"
Hu Yanqing sneered, his large face almost touching Lei Hao's nose.
"Lei Hao, are you still living in a dream? You know that's all in the past?"
Hu Yanqing raised his thick finger and poked Lei Hao's chest without any politeness. With each poke, Lei Hao was forced to take a step back.
"Look at the state you've become."
"Without Blue Lightning's support, your Thunder Academy is nothing but a second-rate mess. Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus is already struggling to survive, and you, Lei Hao? Do you think you're worthy of my permission to give way?"
"you shut up!"
Qin Yue abruptly shook off Lei Hao's hand, rushed forward, her eyes blazing with fury.
"Brother Lei Hao is very strong now! Moreover, we represent the face of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. How dare you insult the three upper clans?"
"The Upper Three Sects? Ha!"
He looked around and started shouting.
"Listen to this, everyone! The Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan still dares to act like one of the three major clans!"
"Our Elephant Armor Sect is currently the most powerful defensive sect. In terms of strength, we should have pushed you out long ago!"
Naked humiliation.
Lei Hao was so angry he could barely stand.
But he couldn't move.
We can't beat them.
On the periphery of the crowd.
"This is reality."
Bibi Dong said coldly.
"The strong prey on the weak. Without the protection of the strong, so-called glory is a joke."
She turned to look at Yu Xiaoheng, who was standing in front of her.
The man has been completely still since just now.
There was no anger, no sympathy, not even a change in the frequency of his breathing.
Yu Xiaoheng watched quietly.
Looking at Lei Hao's flushed face, at the tears in Qin Yue's eyes, and at Feng Kai's impotent rage, I saw...
I used to follow behind him, calling him "Captain" repeatedly, admiring him and relying on his face, yet I endured malice just a few meters away.
The people from Thunder Academy are too weak.
Even if you register, in such a fiercely competitive tournament, you're just giving away points.
