The rookies that had pursued him were on the left, while the diabolic black-robed youth was on his right. Shi Xiaobai actually had two directions in which he could flee in, but he chose to stop because fleeing did not help the situation.
However, Shi Xiaobai was definitely not one to sit still and wait for death. If more than forty powerful rookies came charging at him, in addition to the utterly strange black-robed youth, surrounded him, even with his Crab Steps at the Crest of Perfection realm, it would be very difficult for him to dodge perfectly, much less have the strength to launch a counteroffensive.
Therefore, Shi Xiaobai immediately turned around and charged at the black-robed youth before the rookies surrounded him!
