"Splash!"
The rain in the sky gathered into countless streams, like columns of water crashing down.
"Buzz!"
The defensive barrier suddenly burst forth with a bright light.
The light from the array only lasted a moment before flickering...
This is a warning sign; if the external attack is too powerful and the formation is nearing its limit, it will flicker unpredictably.
It looks like it's about to collapse at any moment, but it's barely managing to hold on.
Ma Guangzhi's expression turned solemn.
It's equivalent to a Great Demon at the peak of Foundation Establishment; even if he personally took action, he might not be able to defeat it.
So he hesitated whether or not to use the sword talisman.
With the power of the sword talisman bestowed by that Golden Core cultivator, it would surely be able to slay this demon.
However, the sword talisman can only be activated three times. If it's used now, the margin for error will be reduced...
After a moment's thought, he decided to save the three chances from the sword talisman.
"Hey! Monster, how dare you offend our school's campus! Take this!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the soul banner was already in his palm.
"Swish! Swish! Swish!"
In an instant, a large number of souls rushed out of the soul banner and rushed towards the demonic beasts outside the barrier.
The rainwater broke through, revealing an ugly fish head.
This is a river monster that has invaded Xiande City through the river and is now targeting young men and women on campus.
“This is truly a wonderful place!” the river demon said in a hoarse voice.
In the next instant, a large number of souls surged toward it.
With a calm expression, it suddenly swung its tail, creating waves all around it.
Those souls were directly struck by the waves, and were swept away like scraps of paper.
"Ooh~"
In this confrontation, Ma Guangzhi suffered a great loss.
Many of the souls that rushed forward were shattered and dissipated under the crushing force of the waves...
He lost at least two or three hundred souls!
Fortunately, these charging souls were summoned by his own minions and were not directly subordinate to him.
Of course, his soul cultivation students weren't so lucky.
Their souls, painstakingly cultivated and enslaved, were so easily crushed.
Especially for those Qi Refining stage soul cultivators, creating a vengeful spirit that can both attack and defend requires at least several months of arduous training...
For Principal Ma, as long as these soul cultivators don't die, the number of souls can be replenished sooner or later. But for these mixed cultivators, it means three months of work for nothing!
"Stop looking so gloomy, release all the vengeful spirits!" Ma Guangzhi urged.
"At worst, I'll exempt you from three months of homework afterwards."
His words caused a dramatic change in the attitudes of those soul cultivators who were initially reluctant.
"You should have said so earlier! I still have three vengeful spirits I've been keeping. For the sake of my immortal virtue, I'll send them all out at the same time!"
"Sigh! I really envy Senior Brother Zhou Lianfeng, who was able to escape from this sea of suffering!"
The students cultivating their souls exchanged secrets.
"Don't even mention Brother Feng, he's busy too!"
A ghostly figure pointed at the students below.
A figure clad in iron armor was seen struggling against the shrimp and crab monsters that had fallen onto the barrier with the rain.
Yes, it was Zhou Lianfeng, who had regained his freedom.
He originally planned to leave and go far away, but after repeating a grade for many years, he had a special feeling for Xiande Middle School.
This delay of a few days meant they couldn't leave at all.
The appearance of the battle merit token also made him determined to stay and live and die with the school.
With meritorious service, he could undergo surgery, and it wouldn't be impossible for him to have a new body at that time.
Although this armored golem is fierce, it ultimately lacks a bit of "humanity".
How could Zhou Lianfeng, who so desperately longed for connection with people, possibly stay in this lump of iron for the rest of his life?
"puff!"
The rotten fish and shrimp landed on the barrier, not only blocking everyone's view, but also extending their pincers to attack the barrier.
The students busied themselves, working hard to clean up the little river monsters.
The blood stained the barrier red, but the rain washed it away, restoring its shine...
"Why is this barrier not only not showing any cracks, but becoming even stronger?" the perfected river demon asked with some suspicion.
Just now, its water jet impact was barely enough to extinguish the defensive barrier.
But after a few minutes, not a single crack appeared in the barrier, and it even stopped flickering.
Ma Guangzhi laughed heartily when he saw this.
"Haha! Chen Yi, you're really something!"
That's right, the reason why this formation is getting stronger and stronger is because Chen Yi improved the formation patterns on the formation pillars.
After he passed the improved version on to that formation teacher, the teacher then went on to tell the other teachers.
Thanks to the efforts of the repair team, the strength of the formation increased by 30%!
It would be almost impossible for a single fully-fledged demon to shake the barrier of Xiande Middle School.
A few minutes later, Chen Yi returned to the ground.
All the damaged battle posts have been repaired, and his battle merits have increased from 165 to 565!
This means that after he parted ways with that teacher, he repaired eight more array pillars on his own.
In total, he repaired 10 array pillars on his own, and one was repaired in collaboration with others.
Members of other repair teams also gradually returned to the ground.
They immediately looked in Chen Yi's direction and nodded to him.
"Chen Yi, the improved version you provided is indeed very effective!"
Several formation teachers expressed their deep gratitude to Chen Yi.
"These are merely my humble opinions," Chen Yi replied modestly. "You teachers have been immersed in the art of formations for a long time, and I have much to learn from you!"
He wasn't lying; he genuinely had that idea.
Although their current array formation skills are slightly better than their teachers', as level 2 array formation masters, they naturally each have their own unique skills.
If I can learn even a little bit, my own skill might be able to reach Lv.3.
"Oh dear! I'm so ashamed! We've been studying formations for so many years, and it's all gone to waste," a teacher said with a wry smile.
The others chimed in, "Indeed! Such a simple change can strengthen the formation by 30%, and none of us could have imagined it before... Truly, the younger generation is formidable!"
The group rested while keeping an eye on the battle.
When they saw that the defensive barrier was in good condition, they breathed a sigh of relief.
At this moment, the defensive formation can be summed up in one word—impregnable!
Behind him, Chen Yi squinted at the torrential rain pouring down overhead.
"What level of demonic beast is this?"
As a cultivator at the twelfth level of Qi Refining, he couldn't sense that kind of existence...
"A perfected Great Demon!" a formation master exclaimed.
Chen Yi sighed inwardly, "How terrifying is a perfected demon?"
Judging from this, his Thunder Demon Crimson Gold Python and Crimson Flame Sparrow are still a bit inexperienced!
He stroked his chin: "If there's a chance, we should let them both out for some training..."
Just as he was pondering, the centipede demon, which had been silent for a long time, suddenly moved again.
Its anger only intensified after Liu Qing broke both of its legs.
This time, its target was none other than Chen Yi, who was standing at the back of the crowd!
"careful!"
The nearby array instructors watched in horror as a sharp hook-shaped foot pierced towards Chen Yi's groin...
Even Liu Qing couldn't make it this far.
One of the female teachers couldn't help but close her eyes.
But then, a "ding" was heard!
The centipede's legs struck Chen Yi's lower body, but it felt as if it had hit steel bars...
He hooked his foot and tried to shove it into his body, but found that he couldn't go any further!
Chen Yi sneered: "My body, transformed by the bloodline altar, is not something you can touch?"
