They had lost one of their Soaring Realm experts, while their opponents had an additional civilization master who had succeeded in will manifestation. They might not necessarily lose, but... why did they have to fight to the bitter death?
The worst thing that could happen was that they were going to fail their mission!
Were they really going to fight it out to the very end?
The two of them had just reached a consensus. Over at one side, Scarless had an additional short blade stabbed into his head. It was Scarless's own weapon. At this moment, Scarless's eyes were wide open, having died with an unresolved grievance!
He was dead!
Liu Wenyan had just succeeded in manifesting his will, but he could outmatch Scarless. The latter ended up being killed by a civilization master whose physical body was in the Thousand Pound Realm.
Bang!
His corpse fell down.
Liu Wenyan also landed on the ground, panting vigorously. He then looked toward the few Soaring Realm experts who were still locked in an intense battle and smiled, ignoring them. He then hollered, "Surround and kill them!"
The moment his words ended, his willpower manifested again!
Not far away, the few Ten-Thousand Stone Realm enemies who had just wanted to flee froze slightly. This momentary pause meant their death!
Zhang Yun and Zeng Hua had managed to kill a few Ten-Thousand Stone Realm enemies. After all, they were both in the ninth level of the Ten-Thousand Stone Realm and also high officials in Nanyuan. Their strength wasn't weak. Hence, they cooperated really well and with a few swishing sounds, their blade and sword pierced through the few enemies at the instant Liu Wenyan stopped them.
The few Ten-Thousand Stone Realm people's physical bodies were destroyed, and they died immediately as their bodies fell.
At this moment, the All-Races Sect's members no longer had the morale to kill!
If they were to fight to the very end, they might not necessarily lose.
They still had close to 20 Ten-Thousand Stone Realm experts with them and two hall lords who managed to suppress the Longwu Guards and the city lord. Their strength might be weakened, but they could still put up a fight. After all, Liu Wenyan's willpower was limited.
However, if they were really unafraid of death, they wouldn't be the All-Races Sect.
In a smooth-sailing battle, these people would grow more courageous as they fought.
However, the moment a slip-up appeared and it seemed that they were going to lose, these people would just break apart by themselves.
"Retreat!"
"Run!"
"Hurry up and escape!"
Several hundreds of the All-Races Sect's members were horrified and tried to flee.
They exposed their backs to the teachers and the city guards. In just this instant, several tens of All-Races Sect members were killed on the spot.
Originally, they had only suffered some losses. But in the blink of an eye, one-third of them died and the remaining 200-plus people were scattered across the entire academy.
"Flee!"
The two hall lords didn't have the mood to battle anymore either. Their mission had failed.
Since it failed, then they should run. There wasn't a need for them to lose their lives here.
As for honor and battling to the very end? Those were things that didn't exist.
What was more important than life?
Even though they knew that Liu Wenyan probably wasn't capable of fighting anymore, this place was Nanyuan City. Once they were entangled, they'd die sooner or later.
The two hall lords were at the third level and fourth level respectively and were stronger than Wu Wenhai and the others. Hence, they continued to retreat as they fought, trying to retreat out of the academy.
Outside the academy, the scattered All-Races Sect members also displayed their various abilities and fled extremely quickly
However, just at this moment, another group of people suddenly appeared outside the academy.
There were old people, middle-aged people, and crippled people.
"Archers, shoot!"
A white-haired old man let out a low bellow and at the next moment, over ten old men pulled their bows and fired!
Woosh~
In the blink of an eye, over ten All-Races Sect members' heads exploded!
"Spear soldiers, form formation!"
Several tens of middle-aged and old people stopped the escapees with their spears as they attacked
"Blade soldiers advance!"
"Kill!"
Swishing sounds kept echoing and the fleeing All-Races Sect members completely broke down. There were cries, shouts, and pleas for mercy.
The old man in the lead twitched his lips in contempt.
How dared they show such atrocity in the Great Xia Prefecture with such lousy skills!
"The Nanyuan Civilian Army has come to assist! Kill! Leave not a single one of them alive!"
"Kill!"
The group of old people roared so loudly that their voices shook the heaven.
Swish~ Swish~
Heads fell down one after another.
In the blink of an eye, another group of several tens of people died on the spot.
At the back, the city guards who were giving chase also arrived. Being sandwiched between the two groups, the All-Races Sect members completely broke down!
"Fool! How can you retreat on the battlefield?! You have enemies both in front and back. Who is going to die if not you guys?!"
The old man said with an indifferent expression. This was but a small scene.
Was a fight between several hundred people considered a war?
Among the All-Races Sect members, someone saw the old man, and he had some reluctance and disbelief on his face. He recognized this old man. The latter usually had trouble even going up the stairs and would need to take a few breaks when he went to buy groceries.
To think that an old man like this was leading a group of old people who spent their time chatting in the park to surround and attack them?
"What are you looking at? Have you not seen killing before?"
The old man scolded and then roared, "Where are the ax soldiers? Attack!"
Bzz!
Over ten axes that were used to chop firewood shot out with extreme accuracy, instantly smashing over ten heads.
"Old Zhang, are you blind?! Your ax almost hit me!"
The old man scolded. Just now, one of the axes almost hit him.
At the back, a hunchbacked old man looked helpless. "My hands are a little shaky. I've gotten on in age. Didn't I fail to kill you?"
"Stop with the crap talk!"
The old man bellowed once again, "The guys at the back, did you guys not eat food today? Don't you know that we don't have any more strength? Kill them quickly! If they manage to charge out, all of us old people won't be able to chase them as we can no longer run!"
"Kill!"
The eyes of the teachers, city guards, and Windarrest Hall people all turned red.
Embarrassing, it was too embarrassing!
In the blink of an eye, close to 100 people amongst the fleeing group were killed by this group of old men who couldn't even run. If these younger men didn't kill a few of these traitors, they'd be too embarrassed to show their faces.
The battle went on smoothly. The All-Races Sect members didn't have any discipline at all, and their morale had broken down. With several hundred people surrounding to attack them, an instant later, almost everyone from the All-Races Sect had died.
The few surviving Ten-Thousand Stone Realm members were still fighting intensely, trying to break through the encirclement. However, death would come for them sooner or later.
At this moment, of all battles in the academy, the most intense one was undoubtedly the battle situation of the two Soaring Realm experts from the All-Races Sect.
They fought their way outside the academy and at this moment, they no longer had any thoughts of fighting to the death. They only fully focused on fleeing.
Seeing that the chances of surrounding and killing the two Soaring Realm enemies weren't high, Xia Bing suddenly shouted explosively, "Let the guy go! Surround and kill that woman!"
