"Tan!" Mei Stood on the backside of Ana, who was in no shape to be fighting, while Yi Tan stood at the front. "Mei, protect Ana and yell if you need me."
"Mmm!' Mei did not dare to turn around to look at Yi Tan, she had to watch the four men who were coming her way.
"Sei, I need a spell that can make me fast. How quickly can you make one?" Yi Tan asked.
"Can you last five minutes!?" Sei was nervous. Yi Tan only had one ability, and that was Lightning Smash which was a close ranged attack.
"Five minutes it is then." Yi Tan rotated his shoulders and eyed the six people walking towards him. Luckily six of them were on his side. "Ana, if you can use your wind blades to help Mei out."
"Mm… I will try." Ana had never fought before, so this was her very first battle. She never thought just as she entered the academy, she would be forced to fight other students, and it was a battle they could not lose. She forced herself to stand. Even though her legs were wobbling due to the intense running just now, she didn't care. She took a deep breath and let it out slowly to focus on the four people coming towards her.
"Kill the guy and grab the girls. Don't make me wait long!" Derek ordered. He did not even plan to step forward.
Yi Tan stepped forward a few steps to give himself some room away from the girls. But he only moved two steps forward. He slowed his breathing as he looked at the few older students who were walking towards him and scanned each one of them, trying to discern who was the weakest of the six and who was the strongest.
Normally when one was in a fight, they would take out the weakest first, but in a fight like this, Yi Tan knew it was best to go for the strongest, and this time around. Not actually defeating them but at least put them out of the fight for the time being. But he also had to be careful of their abilities. He had no idea who had what ability.
"Humph! I will take him." One of the young men yelled. He had flaming red hair. He flicked his wrist, causing flames to cover his fist before charging at Yi Tan.
Yi tan snorted and did not even pay attention to the young man chagrin at him. His eyes were on the other five. As the young man with flames in his hands reached Yi Tan, Yi tan tossed out a punch of his own, activating his lightning smash, slamming his fist right into the other young's fist.
*Bam!*
*Crunch!*
"Ahhh!' The young man with flaming red hair yelled out. Yi tan followed right through with his punch causing the bone of the young man's forearm to pierce out of his elbow and right out of his arm. His skin actually deflated and hung gangly in the air. Yi Tan followed this up with a swift kick to the side, sending the young man to the ground. The bone itself shot straight into the brick wall on the other side of the road. The attack was swift, powerful, violent, and brutal.
"Shit!" One of the young men yelled out. His face turned pale. He never thought this new arrival at the academy would be this powerful!
"What are you being scared of? Hit him with ranged abilities!" Derek yelled out. He was glad he was not taking part in this fight,
"Fuck! Get him!" Another young man yelled out. He clasped his hands together and then slammed his fist off the ground. The ground suddenly started to shake as large rocky spikes shot up through the ground.
Yi Tan was going to dodge to the side, but he realized these spikes were not going to stop just because he moved. "Damn it!" Yi Tan had no choice but to turn around and grab the girls once again and dodge to the side.
Mei was getting worried, she had been shooting her static lightning at the other guys along with Ana's wind blade, keeping them at bay, but now they are flat up against the building! "Tan, what do we do!?"
"For now, don't move!" Yi Tan turned and pulled the girls into his embrace as he saw that all nine of the young men attacked at the same time. They had no place to run! His only option right now was to use his body to block their attacks to keep the girls safe.
"Haha! It looks like he could only last this long. It serves him right for going against the Newman family. Tis a shame that the girls will probably be dead too. I am sure Andre will be upset." Derek said as he watched the elemental abilities flew straight at Yi Tan.
*Boom!*
A thundering sound rang out as all the spells landed at the same time, causing a massive mushroom cloud of dust and debris to fly into the air. Derek shook his head as he saw the loud cloud of dust. "There is no way anyone survived that. That is like a bomb going off."
"Ahh!"
"Ahhh! Stay away!"
"Ahh!"
Sounds of screaming could be heard as the cloud of dust filled the area, making vision almost next to none. Derke couldn't understand what was going on since he could not see inside the dense cloud of dust. "Hey, what is happening!? What is all that screaming!? Did you kill him!?"
"Kill? Like they could…." Yi Tan leisurely walked out of the cloud of dust, flicking the blood he had on his hand off. "You are the only one left. Do you want it to be one of your legs? One of your, your arms? Or would you like it to be your third leg? Pick and choose which one you want to lose." Yi Tan asked as he slowly walked towards Derek with a smile on his face. But internally, he was really praising Sei for a job well done! Sei had come through for him just at the right time!
