The Bat Wing King's claws swiped through the air, barely missing Ling Xiao as he dodged to the side. Jang Ran's Autumn Storm blasted the creature's right wing, but it barely flinched.
"This thing is too strong!" Jang Ran shouted, his eyes wide with concern.
Zhao Min's Cherry Blossom Storm unleashed a torrent of pink petals, but they were swallowed up by the creature's dark, shadowy aura.
"We need to come up with a new plan!" Zhao Min called out, her voice laced with urgency.
But before they could react, the Bat Wing King's wings beat the air, creating a whirlwind that sent the warriors flying. Ling Xiao crashed into a nearby tree, his Ice Sword slipping from his grasp. Jang Ran stumbled back, his Autumn Storm faltering. Zhao Min struggled to get back to her feet, her Cherry Blossom Storm dwindling.
The Bat Wing King loomed over them, its eyes glowing with an eerie green light. It raised a claw, ready to strike...
"We're in trouble," Ling Xiao muttered, his eyes fixed on the creature.
Jang Ran's face set in determination. "We can't give up. We have to keep fighting!"
But Zhao Min's eyes were filled with doubt. "I don't know if we can take this thing down..."
The Bat Wing King's claw descended, casting a dark shadow over the warriors...
The Bat Wing King's claw sliced through Ling Xiao's chest, tearing into his muscles and cracking his ribs. He groaned, his breath coming in ragged gasps, as blood soaked through his clothes.
Jang Ran's arms were shredded, his skin hanging in tatters, as the creature's claws ripped into him. He gritted his teeth, his Autumn Storm faltering, as he struggled to stay upright.
Zhao Min's leg was a mess of blood and bruises, her muscle torn, as the Bat Wing King's claws raked across her skin. She limped, her Cherry Blossom Storm dwindling, as she tried to keep her balance.
The three warriors stumbled back, their bodies battered and bruised. Ling Xiao clutched his chest, his eyes squinting in pain. Jang Ran's arms hung limp, his skin flayed open. Zhao Min's leg throbbed, her muscle screaming in agony.
The Bat Wing King loomed over them, its eyes glowing with an eerie green light. It raised a claw, ready to strike again...
But suddenly i burst into the clearing just as the Bat Wing King was about to deliver the final blow to my senior brothers and sister. Ling Xiao, Jang Ran, and Zhao Min lay battered and bruised, unable to defend themselves.
Without hesitation, I threw myself at the creature, my sword flashing in the sunlight. "Take that, you monster!" I shouted, my blade slicing into the Bat Wing King's wing.
The creature roared in pain and turned its attention to me. I dodged its claws, but they caught me with a glancing blow, sending me crashing into a nearby tree.
I struggled to my feet, my body screaming in agony. My vision blurred, but I refused to give up. I stumbled forward, my sword trembling in my hand.
The Bat Wing King loomed over me, its eyes glowing with an eerie green light. I raised my swo
rd, ready to face its next attack...
