Chapter 153 I'll Cover You
"Is it too early for them? We still need to see the results of their training in the confidential class this month." said another elder.
"Indeed, we still need to take a closer look. This is also for the sake of being responsible for their lives."
"Hey, first of all, which team will win?"
"I think it's Chen Yan and the other eight."
"I think the Tiger-Wolf Squad has a great chance of winning. Even though they are being suppressed now, don't forget that the Tiger-Wolf Squad has been in the Confidential Academy for several years. Their overall strength is not too bad. They will not lose to the Freshman Squad."
Several elders from the confidential institute expressed their opinions.
…
At this time, Chen Yan's eight men were walking side by side, followed by the ten men of the Tiger and Wolf Squad. The distance between them was getting closer and closer, and an atmosphere of urgency ensued.
The people on the track included Qi Lingxuan and eight others as well as the five senior students.
They noticed that Chen Yan and the Tiger and Wolf Squad did not take them seriously, and they felt a little unhappy.
Seeing that Chen Yan and his companions were about to finish the second lap, but they had not yet passed the first lap, they naturally felt a little unbalanced.
Huo Baoer and his companions were at the fifth level at this time. Seeing Chen Yan and his companions quickly join them, Huo Baoer's eyes darkened, and a hidden weapon slipped out from under her sleeve, and then she aimed at Chen Yan's back and threw it.
When Chen Yan sensed the murderous aura coming from behind him, he immediately turned around to defend himself.
clang!
A hidden weapon was knocked down.
The person who knocked down the hidden weapon was Pei Wusu. He put away the black sword, turned his head slightly and glanced at Huo Baoer.
Chen Yan followed his gaze and her eyes fell on Huo Baoer, and she saw that she looked panicked as if she had been discovered.
Huo Baoer...
Chen Yan's expression became increasingly cold. She saw that Long Xiuming and the others were almost catching up, so she said to Pei Wusu, "Let's go first."
Pei Wu Su nodded.
The two continued forward.
Huo Baoer, who was still standing there in a daze, turned pale and looked panicked. She was actually discovered by them!
Soon, she calmed down. Even if they found out, so what? She just wanted to deal with Chen Yan, just wanted to deal with their team, and didn't want them to win!
Long Xiuming quickly entered the fifth level. His expression was fierce: "Don't even think about escaping!"
At the critical moment, Yu Changying, Xiao Zechuan, Wen Yuchu, Jiang Xianyue, Zhuge Youlin, Pei Wusu and Chi Yue all passed the fifth level and completed another lap!
But Chen Yan stayed at the fifth level.
"Yan Yan!" Jiang Xianyue looked back and saw Chen Yan still stuck in the fifth level, she exclaimed.
Because Long Xiuming is almost catching up with Chen Yan!
Chen Yan's eyes were cold and indifferent. She held the Spirit Phoenix Sword in her hand and stood in the fifth checkpoint, like a plum blossom standing in the cold wind, unable to hide her pride. She said calmly, "You keep going, I'll stop them, don't waste time."
Her voice was neither arrogant nor impatient, and seemed to have the ability to calm people's hearts.
Jiang Xianyue and the others looked at her back with mixed feelings.
“Chen Yan, let me cover you next time!” Zhuge Youlin couldn’t help but shout, his eyes dark. He felt that he was older than Chen Yan and should take care of her like a younger sister, but now, she was taking care of him…
Chen Yan: "Don't talk nonsense."
Pei Wusu's eyes turned and he said in a deep voice, "Let's go."
Chen Yan bought them time, which was both a tactic and a strategy.
If the eight of them passed together, the Tiger and Wolf Squad would also pass without any obstacles. At that time, the distance and speed of the two teams would not be much different, almost the same. However, the Tiger and Wolf Squad had two more people, so in the subsequent competitions, the total number of laps of their team would lag behind that of the Tiger and Wolf Squad.
Chen Yan stopped the Tiger-Wolf Squad alone in order to buy time for them and also to have a chance to knock the members of the other team into the vortex hurricane. Then, the laps of the other members would not be completed and would not be counted in the results.
Jiang Xianyue's face darkened. She withdrew her gaze and reentered the 'Mountain of Knives' area as quickly as possible.
The others quickly followed.
Seeing this, Long Xiuming couldn't help but feel anxious. He then stared at Chen Yan with a sneer, "How long do you think you can stop me? Your cultivation is not even at the Earth Level. You were able to rank first in the entry test before, but it was only because of your summoning ability. Now that you can't perform summoning magic, your trump card is useless!"
After Long Xiuming finished speaking, he avoided the layers of traps at the fifth level and approached Chen Yan's position with a mace in hand!
"Get out of here!"
With a roar, Long Xiuming struck Chen Yan hard with almost all his strength.
Clang——
Chen Yan raised her sword to block, and the sudden heavy blow put great pressure on her arms. Despite this, she still blocked the attack.
Long Xiuming's expression changed slightly.
How is that possible?
How could she possibly block an attack from him that was almost as strong as he was?
Chen Yan's arms were numb from the shock. She gritted her teeth, forced his mace away with a sword, then took the initiative to rush towards Long Xiuming and stabbed him in the chest with a sword.
With a bang, Long Xiuming raised his mace and blocked Chen Yan's sword.
Long Xiuming's expression changed, his eyes fell on her hand holding the hilt of the sword, the gauze bandaged on her hand was almost stained with blood, his expression changed from the previous gloom, the arc of his mouth deepened: "You are really good! But how long can you hold on?"
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Long Xiu knew that her hands were injured, so he picked up the mace and smashed it hard against her Spirit Phoenix Sword. Every time he hit it, the wounds on Chen Yan's hands would be broken. Waves of stinging pain came, and Chen Yan's face turned pale instantly.
Long Xiuming wanted to torture her deliberately, but Mei Songxue's anxious voice came from behind him.
"Brother Long, they have entered the second level!"
Long Xiuming took a look and saw that Jiang Xianyue and seven others had already entered the 'sea of fire' area and were heading towards the third checkpoint at a very fast speed.
Long Xiuming's face suddenly darkened, and he stared at Chen Yan with eyes as sharp as a blade.
"It's time for you to go down!"
He shouted angrily, not intending to tangle with Chen Yan anymore. Although he was big, he was extremely agile. In a flash, he had arrived behind Chen Yan, raised the mace with both hands, and wanted to knock Chen Yan down from the whirlpool hurricane.
Chen Yan dodged even faster.
She turned her wrist slightly and swept the sword across.
The sword wind was cold and pierced Long Xiuming's abdomen in an instant. Although the wound was not deep, blood soon seeped out.
Long Xiuming felt pain and was enraged.
Why is Chen Yan so difficult to deal with?
"court death!"
Long Xiuming's attack speed increased, and at this time, Chen Yan abandoned the sword as a weapon and dodged continuously. The weight rings on her feet affected her movements to a certain extent.
With a "bang", Chen Yan's left shoulder was hit by the mace. In an instant, she felt the pain in her bones and flesh, and her face turned pale.
She gritted her teeth and endured the pain, and suddenly a red flaming dagger appeared in her right hand. She raised her eyes suddenly, and her gaze was as cold as the air passing through a glacier, cold and terrifying.
She stepped forward, her figure so fast that it was almost invisible.
