Chapter 152 Holding Out to the Death



The onlookers then hurriedly ran towards the stadium.

The ghost island ritual set up there has not been completely removed, and embers of the torches still remain around.

The magical runes on the ground were clearly visible, covered with dense incantations, meant to summon companion spirits and then select their hosts.

Upon arriving here, a faint phantom appeared behind every Night Watch reserve member who had participated in the Ghost Island ritual.

These phantoms look very similar to Scarface from the mysterious organization, except that Scarface is very skilled at using this skill, and his phantoms are very solid and clear.

The phantoms of these Night's Watch reserve members were very blurry, with only their general outlines visible.

Moreover, those without superpowers cannot see these illusory figures standing behind the students.

The trainees, who had already turned into monsters, desperately rammed into the gymnasium doors.

If it weren't for Xu Yan's desperate pleas, Xu Fan would have already drawn his two swords and killed them all.

After all, he didn't care about the life or death of anyone except his own sister.

Xu Yan, on the other hand, is a person who values ​​relationships.

Although she hadn't spent much time with her classmates, she became more cheerful after getting to know them.

Of course, the blonde female students' companions, who had been beaten up by Xu Yan, didn't think so.

Xu Yan still hopes to find a good way to restore these students who have become monsters back to their original state.

"Brother, could you use that Pure Yang Sword Qi move again to turn these classmates back?"

To be honest, Xu Yan's demands were a bit excessive.

After all, the Pure Yang Sword Qi cannot be used at will; it requires a large amount of the user's true energy.

But who can blame him when he's Xu Fan's beloved younger sister?

"I'm afraid that won't work. Zhuge Lieyang's situation is completely different from these students. A large number of Blood Demons reside within Zhuge Lieyang's body."

Once they are removed from his body, Zhuge Lieyang can be restored to his original state.

Those students had undergone physical modifications to become what they are now; their bodies are already very clean. Even if their souls were cleansed with pure Yang sword energy, they would not ultimately revert to their original state.

Just as Xu Fan was explaining the situation to them, the gymnasium doors were kicked open, and countless students who had turned into monsters filed in.

They lined up in neat rows and moved step by step toward Xu Fan and his group.

Their postures were neat and their steps were synchronized.

It doesn't look like a savage monster that has lost its mind.

Instead, they resembled well-trained soldiers, arranged into battle formations under the command of their commander, gradually approaching the enemy.

The student monsters all look almost identical, making it impossible to tell who the mastermind is.

Xu Fan felt a surge of killing intent within him.

The Demon-Subduing Sword and the Immortal-Slaying Sword were already in his hands.

In the blink of an eye, these monsters will be torn apart.

In the end, Xu Fan was afraid of hurting his younger sister, so he suppressed the murderous intent that was like a flood in his heart.

The monster student slowly approached the edge of the magic circle for the Oni Island ritual.

The first monsters to come into contact with the magic circle emitted wisps of blue smoke, as if they were being roasted by raging fire.

All the monsters stopped and slowly retreated, knowing that the remaining magical power of the magic circle was beyond their physical strength to withstand.

The original purpose of this magic circle was to trap the companion spirits inside. If the summoned companion spirits were too powerful, they might harm the students.

Therefore, even the remaining remnants of this magic array should not be underestimated.

And so the two sides remained locked in a stalemate, staring at each other.

Xu Fan slowly walked out of the magic array.

The overwhelming killing intent had solidified into a tangible form, like sharp swords piercing the bodies of the monsters standing at the front, causing their bodies to gradually show signs of disintegration.

"Such a strong sense of oppression!"

Even Zhuge Lieyang, who was hiding in the center of the magic array, had to admire the killing intent emanating from Xu Fan.

Even the strongest student in this academy would probably find it difficult to withstand Xu Fan's sword strike.

Surprisingly, the monsters made way for Xu Fan. However, Xu Fan's purpose was not to kill these monsters, but to leave the gymnasium and go to the infirmary to see the modification machines that turned students into monsters.

Having been tempered by the battles at Fengmen Village and Nanshan Guesthouse, Xu Fan's strength has reached a new level.

In typical mysterious locations, it is practically invincible.

Any mysterious creature that dares to oppose him will be reduced to ashes in an instant.

After Xu Fan left, the remaining students unconsciously became nervous.

Even with powerful figures like Xu Yan and Zhuge Lieyang present, their sense of security began to plummet.

"If Xu Yan's brother were here, these monsters would definitely not survive tonight."

Dissenting voices began to emerge among the students, who felt that Xu Yan's approach was somewhat naive.

After all, whether those students who have already turned into monsters can turn back is still unknown. If...

If they are allowed to continue developing this way, the casualties on our side may double.

Rather than letting them threaten my life, I should strike first and kill them all.

After all, they weren't familiar with the other classmates, and killing them would clear the way for them to become Night's Watch members.

Perhaps Xu Yan is inherently kind, or perhaps she has a saintly mentality.

Xu Yan absolutely refused to kill these classmates whose appearances and essences had undergone tremendous changes, saying that she would wait for her brother to return from the infirmary.

She herself was determined that if her brother said he had investigated in the infirmary and found no way to turn the students who had turned into monsters back into normal, then she would take action.

Then she would give up and let her brother and her other classmates kill all the monsters in front of her.

They huddled in the center of the magic circle, quietly waiting for Xu Fan's return.

A commotion began to rise among the monsters; they didn't have much time to wait.

They began a reckless, death-defying charge towards the magic circle.

Even with their bodies charred and their limbs torn apart, they remained like fearless suicide squad members.

The monsters stretched out their claws and bared their fangs toward the students in the center of the magic circle, who were already terrified.

Sure enough, the remaining magic array no longer had enough magic power to sustain it.

The barrier protecting Xu Yan and the others began to show signs of cracking.

The surviving students began to scream, huddling together as if that would allow them to escape their fate of death.

No wonder Xu Fan looked down on the Night Watch Bureau.

These Night Watch reservists selected from the Night Watch Bureau were all cowardly and useless.

At crucial moments, we'll have to see how Xu Fan and his sister perform.
