Lin Yu and the others were nervous and expectant, preparing to step into the mysterious gate of the Dragon Kingdom. However, fate seemed to always play tricks on them. At this moment, a louder and heavier sound of footsteps came from the depths of the cave, accompanied by a strange and powerful aura.
"There's another situation! This time the aura is even more powerful than those of the people from the five major academies!" You Qianxue's face instantly turned cold, and her ice power flowed more rapidly around her body. Her eyes were fixed on the direction where the voice came from, trying to discern the identity of the person in advance.
Lin Yu's heart sank suddenly. He clenched the mysterious key in his hand. Although the power of this key was elusive, it was still the hope in everyone's heart at this moment. "No matter who comes, we can't give up easily. We must hold on!" Lin Yu said loudly, trying to inspire everyone's already exhausted morale.
Soon, a group of people in strange costumes appeared in everyone's sight. Their eyes revealed a kind of coldness and greed. Leading them was a middle-aged man with a sinister face.
"Haha, Lin Yu, you didn't expect that people from our spiritual school are here too. You can't escape today. Hand over the mysterious key, and maybe I can leave you with an intact body." The middle-aged man's voice was cold and threatening. He looked at Lin Yu and others as if he had already regarded them as his prey.
Lin Yu's eyes flashed with anger and determination, and he responded loudly: "You people, for a mysterious key, can you disregard morality and do whatever it takes? I tell you, if you want to get the key, you have to step over our corpses first!"
Su Yao's body trembled slightly. Her protective light shield had just been damaged in the battle with the five major academies and had not yet fully recovered. "Lin Yu, what should we do? They look very strong." Su Yao's voice was filled with a hint of fear, but more of her trust in Lin Yu. She firmly believed that Lin Yu would be able to come up with a solution.
A ferocious look appeared on Xiao Yi's face. He waved his weapon and shouted loudly: "What are you afraid of? If one comes, I will kill one. If two come, I will kill a pair! I, Xiao Yi, have never been afraid of anyone!" However, he also knew in his heart that the enemy they faced this time was by no means a good one, and their situation was already precarious.
Lu Ming pushed up his glasses, his eyes quickly scanning the group behind them, trying to identify their weaknesses. "Don't panic, everyone. While they're numerous and powerful, they're not without weaknesses. We need to find an opportunity to break out." Lu Ming's voice was calm and rational, but deep down, he was worried about everyone's safety.
Bing Ling'er's palms were wet with sweat. Her ice spells, having been expended greatly in the previous battle, were now somewhat weakened. "I... I'll do my best and won't hold you back," Bing Ling'er mentally encouraged herself. She didn't want to be a burden to anyone anymore.
The man in red looked at the people at the spiritual school, his heart filled with anger and helplessness. "You, like the five major academies, have been blinded by greed. Do you think you can control everything just by obtaining the mysterious key? How naive!" The man in red shouted, his voice filled with disdain for these people.
The battle broke out instantly, and the people of the Spiritual School used various powerful spells and attack methods to attack Lin Yu and others crazily. Lin Yu and others also used their own unique skills to resist, but because the previous battle with the five major academies had already consumed them greatly, they seemed a little powerless in the face of the attack from the Spiritual School.
Lin Yu concentrated his mind and tried to guide the power of the mysterious key again, but the mysterious key only trembled slightly and did not give him enough power to turn the tide of the battle. "Mysterious key, what's wrong with you? Help us!" Lin Yu shouted anxiously in his heart.
Su Yao's protective light shield was finally broken by the attack of the people in the spiritual school. She was blown away by a powerful impact and fell to the ground, with a trace of blood flowing from the corner of her mouth. "Su Yao!" Lin Yu saw this scene, his heart tightened, and he rushed to Su Yao desperately, wanting to protect her.
Although Xiao Yi's attacks were fierce, the people from the Spiritual School seemed to be prepared for his attacks and were always able to dodge them skillfully. Wounds gradually appeared on his body, and blood stained his clothes red, but he still did not give up and continued to fight frantically.
Lu Ming, observing the battle from behind, noticed that while the Spiritual School's attacks were powerful, there was a gap in their coordination. "Everyone, pay attention! There's a gap between their attacks. Let's take advantage of it and strike back!" Lu Ming shouted, trying to find a glimmer of hope for everyone.
You Qianxue and Bing Ling'er cast their final ice spells, trying to buy time. You Qianxue's ice dragon roared and charged at the enemy, while Bing Ling'er's icy spikes rained down on the Spirit School's inhabitants. However, the Spirit School's inhabitants quickly broke their spells and continued their fierce attacks.
Just when everyone was in dire straits and covered in wounds, people from the five major academies surrounded them again, with smug smiles on their faces, as if they had seen the dawn of victory.
"Haha, Lin Yu, today is the day you die. Let's see where you can escape!" The white-haired old man laughed arrogantly.
Lin Yu looked at the enemies surrounding him, feeling unwilling to give up. He knew that if they continued like this, they would surely die. "Everyone, let's fight with all our might and rush to the gate of the secret realm!" Lin Yu shouted loudly, holding on to a glimmer of hope that perhaps they could find a way out after entering the secret realm.
After hearing Lin Yu's words, everyone mustered up their last bit of strength and rushed towards the secret gate. Seeing this, the people from the Spiritual School and the Five Colleges tried to stop them, but Lin Yu and the others were determined to die. They desperately broke through the enemy's defense line and rushed into the secret gate.
