Under the cover of night, in the Trial Forest, through the dense jungle, one can see the twinkling stars in the sky.

"Ah! Ruan Yang, we've already given you all the points! What more do you want!"

A somewhat chubby young man was struggling to defend against an oncoming attack from a pale blue bronze coin-shaped spirit in front of him.

Beside the chubby boy, the two were lying on the ground after being beaten, and their identity tokens had been stolen from their waists. After the points were deducted, the tokens were thrown back.

"Aren't you Qin Xin's friend? Call him out here and I'll let you go!"

Ruan Yang held a long sword, and with each swing, it seemed as if water was shooting out. The sword was supple yet full of killing intent, but each attack seemed to be holding back, trying to break down the psychological defenses of the person in front of him little by little.

The chubby boy was none other than Jin Yuanbao. Their team was quite unlucky. Although their strength was not bad, they encountered many top-ranked classes along the way, and the points in their tokens had been almost completely depleted.

But misfortune never comes singly. Just as the three were making their next plans, they ran into Ruan Yang, Jing Hong, and Luo Guang. They had caused quite a stir because of Qin Xin's affair, losing face in the academy. Naturally, they wouldn't let the students of Class 20 of the Weaponry Academy get away with it, using it as an opportunity to vent their anger.

Although the academy has a rule that each team can only steal from another team once, Ruan Yang, Jing Hong, and Luo Guang bypassed the rule and transferred the points to others after defeating them each time.

The person in charge of monitoring the Trial Forest saw their actions but did not intervene. The academy had long-standing rules that anyone who harmed a fellow disciple would be killed on the spot, and their family would also be implicated. No student dared to kill others.

"Don't even think about it!"

Jin Yuanbao raised his chubby head, held his Qian Yuan Tong Bao martial spirit in both hands, and a resolute look appeared on his face.

A surge of true energy quietly flowed into the student's token, and instantly, the token emitted a dazzling beam of light that shot straight into the sky.

In the Trial Forest, all the outer court students who witnessed this scene knew that someone had chosen to give up. This was the case every year in the class ranking competition, and there was nothing particularly unusual about it.

"Hmph! You're just like that Qin Xin! You won't shed a tear until you see the coffin!"

Seeing Jin Yuanbao's actions, Ruan Yang's anger intensified. He never expected that the fat man in front of him would give up his qualification for the class ranking competition for Qin Xin.

Because if he gives up, his team's points will be reset to zero, which will lower the class's ranking. Even if the academy doesn't punish him, the class supervisor won't let him off easily.

"Mowen, Lingdie, I'm sorry!"

Jin Yuanbao felt somewhat guilty towards the other two members of the team.

"It's alright, Qin Xin will definitely avenge us, I believe in him!"

Mo Wen struggled to his feet, the several bloody marks on his chest a shocking sight.

"We're all in the same class, so we must support Qin Xin!"

Shangguan Lingdie fared slightly better, perhaps because she was a girl and the blows weren't too severe, but her qi and blood were somewhat weak, and she had already suffered internal injuries.

In general, in class ranking matches, taking away points from the opponent is enough; such drastic measures are not necessary. Clearly, Ruan Yang violated the rules.

"Since that's the case, then don't blame me for being ruthless!"

At this moment, Ruan Yang was somewhat out of his mind due to his anger. Water surged on the long sword in his hand, shooting out like waves!

"Ruan Yang, no!"

"Stop right now!"

Jing Hong and Luo Guang quickly spoke up to stop them.

After activating their identity tokens in the Trial Forest, students simply need to stand still and wait for the supervisor to escort them away; other students are not allowed to attack them.

Ruan Yang obviously couldn't care less about these things. This attack of his had accumulated all the true energy of the ninth level of the Innate Realm. This powerful attack was very likely to kill Jin Yuanbao directly. Even if he didn't kill him, he would most likely have all his meridians shattered and become a half-dead person.

As members of the team, Jing Hong and Luo Guang were inevitably implicated. Although they tried to stop it, it was too late, and the sword stream had already approached Jin Yuanbao.

"clang!"

A crisp sound of collision suddenly rang out.

The aftershocks of the clash of true energy stirred up the surrounding leaves, and the dust that rose up made everyone squint.

As the dust settled, a young man's face appeared, his expression somewhat sinister.

The young man was Qin Xin, who had just arrived. When he saw the beam of light from the token rise, he originally wanted to come and watch the excitement, but he didn't expect to witness Ruan Yang attacking Jin Yuanbao. Without any hesitation, he immediately blocked Ruan Yang's attack.

"Qin Xin, you've finally come out! I thought you were going to hide like a coward!"

Upon seeing Qin Xin appear, Ruan Yang actually had a smile on his face.

However, Qin Xin was filled with rage. Regardless of whether Ruan Yang had deliberately lured him out with the gold ingot, such an action had already crossed his bottom line.

"Qin Xin, I'm fine! This Ruan Yang is only at the ninth level of the Innate Realm. You're no match for him. Get out of here!"

Despite his own injuries, Jin Yuanbao urged Qin Xin to leave.

"Qin Xin, our Class 20 needs you to get more points. You go first, they won't dare to do anything to us!"

A somewhat rough voice rang out from the Mo language.

In the past few days, they have heard a lot about Qin Xin's sniping of the veteran student team, and they also recognize his courage and strength. In addition, the class ranking competition is more about collective honor. As long as Qin Xin leaves, their class can get more points.

"Ruan Yang! You deserve to die!"

Qin Xin said angrily.

Holding the black staff, Qin Xin pointed it directly at Ruan Yang. As his true energy circulated, Qin Xin's left eye turned blue and his right eye turned red. This subtle change went unnoticed by outsiders, but the Heavenly Phoenix Martial Spirit Pattern that was activated on the black staff caused the martial spirit to be covered with golden patterns.

"Nine Nirvanas of the Heavenly Phoenix!"

Driven by the Heavenly Phoenix Martial Spirit Pattern, Qin Xin's aura rose layer by layer. Seeing this, Ruan Yang's expression darkened slightly, and he became somewhat wary.

The sudden surge in Qin Xin's aura was clearly beyond his expectations.

With a single step, Qin Xin shot out, and Ruan Yang swung his sword to block.

"Click!"

The longsword cracked and instantly shattered into pieces, falling to the ground.

Ruan Yang, however, widened his pupils and looked at Qin Xin in front of him, a look of fear on his face.

"boom!"

A loud bang was heard, and Ruan Yang was sent flying.

"Well done, Brother Qin Xin, give him a beating!"

Upon seeing this scene, Jin Yuanbao was so shocked that his mouth dropped open. He never expected Qin Xin to be so fierce. After regaining his senses, he shouted from the side that he would teach these veteran students a lesson.

"Ahem, Qin Xin, you can't escape this time!"

Ruan Yang crawled out of the large pit on the ground, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and then revealed a cold smile.

Nine figures suddenly emerged from behind Ruan Yang.

Is it a trap?

Qin Xin stared intently at the nine figures and said in a deep voice.
