Divine Beast Creator-Chapter 1057 - 1058: Battle

"Planning a sneak attack? It’ll hardly be successful."

Dou Yanlan whispered on the side. Initially, she was puzzled by Pei Yu’s actions, but she soon understood what he intended to do. Confront Feng Yuan head-on? Pei Yu wasn’t one of those students unfamiliar with Feng Yuan. How could he not know that facing Feng Yuan directly, the chance of success was almost zero unless he intended to go easy?

Although it might be unlikely to succeed with a sneak attack, that guy obviously wasn’t too serious either, just playing around. Otherwise, he wouldn’t let Little Husky cast a Blood Moon and then let it attack on its own. However, from where were they planning to launch their sneak attack?

Dou Yanlan was curious. At least, with the Spirit Beast at her side, it seemed impossible to sneak attack Feng Yuan, even if he was just messing around.

"Sneak attack?"

Since the female military officer was standing not far away, she naturally heard Dou Yanlan’s muttering and looked at her with some confusion. Why would she think that? It was clear now that Long Boduo and Estir had an absolute advantage. How could she think that Pei Yu and his group could sneak attack?

"Yes, a direct attack is simply not possible."

Dou Yanlan surveyed the chaotic battlefield and spoke. Since they were inside the Mirror Image World created by Veronia, Long Boduo and Estir unleashed their Ultimate Moves without any reservations. The students needed to exert their full strength to resist these moves. In fact, it was now only Pei Yu and those who initially fell to the back of the group who still had the chance to break away from direct combat and attempt a sneak attack.

"But sneak attacking Divine Beasts from the side also seems unlikely."

The female military officer glanced at Dou Yanlan and said, although her words seemed to inspire her. But that inspiration slipped away momentarily as Dou Yanlan looked at the battlefield.

"We can’t get close, nor can we choose them as our targets because sneak attacking them is useless. But don’t forget, they are only here to help in the battle. The real enemy we need to face is him."

She glanced at the little Husky who had climbed back onto Long Boduo’s head and was arrogantly howling, Dou Yanlan’s expression inexplicable. Was this a deliberate loophole left by that guy or an accidental one?

"Him?!"

At that moment, the female military officer grasped the fleeting inspiration, swiftly turned around, and looked at the Little Husky who was shaking its tail arrogantly on top of Long Boduo. She indeed had overlooked that Feng Yuan was the only main combatant. Neither Little Husky nor Long Boduo were the main forces; even if they were defeated, they still had to beat Feng Yuan to truly win.

She hadn’t forgotten that Feng Yuan himself possessed individual combat abilities. Even if Little Husky couldn’t transfer power to him, he could still fight alone. Surprised, she looked at Dou Yanlan silently for a moment before speaking,

"Would you consider joining our military?"

"What are you trying to do!"

Qi Chen, looking tense, stood in front of Dou Yanlan. Gently pushing Qi Chen aside, Dou Yanlan looked at the female military officer and smiled lightly,

"If it had been before last year, maybe I would have chosen that path, but now..."

"Too many attachments, huh? You’re really lucky..."

After glancing at Qi Chen and instantly understanding, she sighed softly, smiled slightly at Dou Yanlan, and said, though her tone couldn’t help but carry a hint of envy. Understanding her meaning, Dou Yanlan murmured softly,

"Don’t you have friends you admire?"

"Maybe there are, just now... life is unpredictable; let everything take its course..."

The female military officer sighed and turned back to focus on the battlefield again. She hadn’t expected to encounter someone like Dou Yanlan here, but regretfully, it was clear that she wasn’t about to join the military. No! Before that moment comes, her not joining was actually a good choice for her personally.

Looking at Qi Chen, who was nervously watching her, Dou Yanlan smiled and said,

"Don’t worry, I won’t join the military."

"That’s not what I meant... just..."

Blushing and looking down, Qi Chen didn’t know how to proceed. He believed he shouldn’t interfere with Dou Yanlan’s decisions, but if she and Pei Yu were to join the military...

With a gentle smile, Dou Yanlan hugged Qi Chen and said,

"Thank you."

"Such a letdown, is this all you’ve got?"

Having climbed back onto Long Boduo’s head, Little Husky wagged its tail discontentedly and shook its ears as a smile appeared on its face. At that moment, a black energy arrow came flying toward him. With a leap forward, Little Husky deftly dodged the arrow and landed steadily on the ground. Before Long Boduo could launch an attack towards the direction from which the arrow had been shot, vines reached out and jerked Little Husky aside.

"Good thinking, but did they forget Xiao Ji?"

Veronia glanced at Little Husky, who was dragged to the side, and sighed. A huge crack opened in the sky, unleashing a barrage of black fireballs plummeting downward. She immediately took action to stabilize the Mirror Image World, or it wouldn’t take long for the world to collapse under the strain of Xiao Ji’s Crimson Judgement.

Although they had successfully pulled Little Husky aside, the attack didn’t break through his barrier. The bombardment from the sky arrived before they could breach it, unlike Long Boduo. Xiao Ji’s attacks really were relentless, dishing out terrifying fireballs and revealing a stele that indiscriminately harmed everyone.

"He still understands too little about him."

Najia propped up the Starlight Barrier and said helplessly. If they had understood him better, they should have known not to use their ultimate moves in front of Xiao Ji, or else once Xiao Ji lost control, no ordinary person could stop him.

Agunas raised his head to look at Xiao Ji in the sky with some helplessness. That guy always gets overly anxious about matters concerning Feng Yuan. Obviously, Feng Yuan was doing it on purpose, or did they really think their little tricks could pull Feng Yuan over? Did they think he was that easy to provoke?

"That spirit beast called Xiao Ji is incredibly strong..."

Feeling the terrifying deterrence of the Crimson Judgement, the female officer murmured in astonishment. The instructor looked nervously at Pei Yu and the others, believing they had done well in confronting the two Divine Beasts head-on, but he hadn’t anticipated such a drastic change after separating Feng Yuan and the other two Divine Beasts.

At that moment, Pei Yu and his group didn’t back down but instead confronted the descending fireballs head-on. Lying on the ground, Little Husky rolled his eyes at Xiao Ji in the sky and flicked his tail. A paw lightly struck the Black Ancient Book three times, rapidly diminishing and dissipating the power of the Crimson Judgement.

"Okay, stop messing around. Don’t just use the Crimson Judgement rashly. What if you lose control? Remember, we are just sparring."

Flicking his tail, Little Husky said, albeit not loudly, but everyone present, including Xiao Ji, heard him clearly.

With a dissatisfied screech, Xiao Ji refrained from using the Crimson Judgement again. Tucking away the Black Ancient Book, Little Husky stood up, flicked his tail, and looked at Pei Yu and the others, saying,

"Not bad~"

"Why do I feel like you were just slacking off the whole time?"

After declaring the winner, Feng Yuan returned to his normal form, wrapping his arm around Xiao Ji and walking towards Qi Chen and the others. That’s when Yang Hong, eyeing Feng Yuan suspiciously, raised his hand, and a semi-transparent, dark grey barrier blocked a sneaky student. Feng Yuan yawned and said,

"Who said that? I was very actively taunting them, but they’re just too slow."

Looking at Feng Yuan, the man had no way to refute his words. After all, those students were still thinking about ambushing Feng Yuan. But really, was he that easy to ambush?

With a gesture, a black chain spontaneously appeared, snagged the sneak attacker, and flung him aside. Feng Yuan smiled smugly and said,

"See? Wasn’t that pretty successful?"

"In a way... yes."

Covering his face, Qi Chen didn’t know what to say about him, then the female officer stopped those students who still wanted to ambush and scolded them. Hearing her instruct them to run twenty laps around Cotton Orchid Manor, Feng Yuan ’kindly’ reminded them of the exact boundaries of Cotton Orchid Manor. Qi Chen looked at Feng Yuan and said,

"You’re going to make them hate you."

"So what? I’m not scared." freewebnoveℓ.com

Feng Yuan said nonchalantly, while Yang Hong, somewhat surprised, remarked,

"I didn’t know the forest behind the creek was also part of Cotton Orchid Manor."

"It’s normal, considering grandma didn’t fully develop this place."

Wrapping his arm around Xiao Ji, Feng Yuan walked towards the dining hall, adding,

"I wonder if there’s still anything to eat. I’m starving after all that fighting."
