Countless sword beams fell, forcing the instructor to retreat repeatedly.
Hercules extended countless tentacles from his left hand, pulling out the two straight swords stuck in his body and tightly binding them.
There wasn't a drop of blood on the knife.
Then Hera looked at the instructor who was being beaten by Ye Yiqing and decisively swung out the two bone whips behind her.
The thick bone whip sliced through the air, lashing out at the two combatants from both sides.
The instructor glanced around and ducked down again to avoid being hit by the two bone whips.
Seeing that the two bone whips were already in front of him, Ye Yiqing stopped slashing at the instructor and quickly retreated to dodge.
But this also created distance between him and the instructors.
Ye Yiqing looked at Hera and smiled helplessly, without blaming her. Then he turned his gaze back to the instructor and stared intently at him.
The instructor stood up, gripped his straight knife, and began to breathe heavily.
He looked at Hera, who had already pulled out her knife, had only two holes in her clothes, and was completely unharmed. A look of horror flashed in his eyes, but then he understood.
He concluded that Hera definitely possessed the strength of a 'high-level' being, and was also a 'symbiote', seemingly with regenerative abilities.
This is a bit tricky...
Dealing with Ye Yiqing, who was at the same cultivation level, was already difficult enough, but then another one came along.
The instructor was starting to feel hopeless. Hera had control of both straight swords, and his swordsmanship was inferior to Ye Yiqing's. Losing was only a matter of time.
The instructor's eyes darkened again, and he began to doubt himself.
Hera withdrew her bone whip and then lashed it at the instructor again. This time, she swept one bone whip high and one low, while countless tentacles from her right hand reached out to interfere and seize the bell.
The instructor gritted his teeth and launched a counterattack, charging directly at Hera.
Faced with the attack of the two bone whips, the instructor turned his body and passed through the gap between the two bone whips while swinging his knife to cut off the small tentacles around him.
Finally, he stepped directly onto the ground and stood in front of Hera. With a swift stroke, he severed the tentacles that were binding Hera's straight sword.
Freed from the tentacles' restraint, the two straight swords spun rapidly like wild horses, deflecting the two bone whips Hera had just retracted.
At the same time, the instructor slashed down with the back of his knife, striking Hera on the back of the neck.
The force of the blow twisted Hera's neck, but she kept her eyes wide open, showing no signs of fainting.
The arm whose tentacles had been severed immediately began to wriggle and transformed into a left hand.
He then used a grappling technique he learned from Liu Xiaogang to grab the instructor by the neck and forcefully slam him to the ground.
The tentacles on its right hand also quickly extended, tightly binding the instructor's limbs and rendering him unable to move.
With another thought, the instructor sent two straight swords flying to sever Hera's tentacles.
Ye Yiqing suddenly made a move, unleashing two sword energies that stopped the two straight swords flying towards Hera.
Ye Yiqing then sheathed his katana and kicked off with a powerful push from his legs.
He jumped nearly ten meters into the air, then grabbed two straight swords in mid-air with both hands.
It landed smoothly.
The two straight knives trembled incessantly in Ye Yiqing's hands, trying to break free from his grasp, but Ye Yiqing held them firmly with his powerful grip.
Seeing that his twin swords were once again under Ye Yiqing's control, the instructor struggled again, but when he realized he couldn't move, he gave up, closed his eyes, and let the two of them do as they pleased.
Hera used her tiny right tentacle to reach for the bells on the instructor's waist and removed all five of them.
"Miss Hera, how do you plan to divide this bell?" Ye Yiqing walked to Hera's side, holding his twin swords.
Hera held up five bells in front of her with her tentacles, then thought about the number of bells she needed.
Aside from myself and Coco, it seems there's really no one else I can give bells to. However, Xinglan previously said that I could make more friends by giving bells, so the more bells the better.
Hera turned to look at Ye Yiqing, about to speak, when she saw Ye Yiqing suddenly looking ahead as if facing a formidable enemy.
Hera followed the gaze and saw Chief Instructor Li Hu, who had fought her one-on-one earlier, walking over carrying a katana and wearing somewhat torn camouflage clothing.
When Instructor Li Hu saw Hera suppressing the instructors, he was taken aback for a moment, and then looked at Ye Yiqing, who was ready to make a move at any time.
With just one glance, Li Hu could tell the other party's level of cultivation from the aura emanating from him.
Then, looking at the other instructor, his expression began to turn somewhat strange.
"No, Qin Gucheng, your luck..."
"You've encountered both of the only two 'high-level' recruits in this cohort..." Before he could finish speaking, a sword aura shot straight at Li Hu's face.
Li Hu's expression hardened, and he quickly raised his katana to face the sword energy.
Bang--!
The sword energy collided with the massive katana, instantly unleashing a tremendous metallic clang.
Taking advantage of this moment, Ye Yiqing grabbed Hera by the back of her collar, lifted her up like a chick, and then ran away dragging the two huge bone whips.
"They got away?!" Li Hu blocked the attack and looked at the two fleeing figures in disbelief.
Qin Gucheng got up from the ground with a sullen face. "They took all my bells, so there's really no reason for them to continue fighting."
Watching Ye Yiqing and Hera run far away, the instructor slowly smiled. "It seems this year's class isn't so weak after all."
"Hmm." Qin Gucheng nodded, his head slowly lowering. "I feel like I might not be able to teach them."
"Shut up! As an instructor, you must first and foremost be confident! You can't deny yourself entirely because of some things that happened before, understand?" Li Hu suddenly raised his voice.
"Yes, I understand." Qin Gucheng nodded, but his head remained lowered.
Li Hu sighed as he looked at Qin Gucheng.
Then he raised the katana in his hand, looked at the two cuts on it, and sighed again.
...
"I give up! Stop AFK and hurry up and use your iron plate to block our damage!"
Ye Ciqing was launched into the air by a stone pillar that rose from the ground. Looking at the approaching explosion, he roared at Coco, who was crouching down with her head in her hands.
"No, no, I can't help it." Coco said, her voice trembling with tears streaming down her face.
"My ability only works on cubical metal; once the shape changes, I can't control it anymore..."
Coco looked at the iron block that had been twisted into a pretzel and burst into tears again.
"I'm speechless, what a garbage ability!"
Ye Ciqing waved his hand, and several bones flew in front of him, blocking the explosion, before he landed steadily on the ground.
"Shameless! Two instructors at the 'high-level' realm ganged up on three of us new recruits! Do they have no conscience?!" Ye Ciqing conjured a bone spear in his hand and angrily threw it at one of the instructors.
The instructor slightly raised his hand, and a stone wall rose up to block the spear.
