Chapter 247 (1/2)
Chapter 247
The huge number of Corrupt disciples that had appeared caused Tang Wan-er a burst of nervousness, but she forcibly pushed that down .
“Prepare to fight!” Tang Wan-er stood at the front of their troops . Everyone took out their weapons, preparing to meet them head-on .
Long Chen shook his head as he watched from a distance . When two armies clashed head-on, it would be better to seize the initiative . That was not just a strategical tactic, but a psychological tactic .
Those who took the initiative first would all possess a mental superiority which would increase their morale .
If Long Chen had been present, then as soon as they had rushed over, he would also have launched an attack . He would immediately release his imposingness, not letting others suppress them in that manner .
That kind of warfare had to due with Long Chen’s temperament . That arrogance inside his bones refused to let him lower his head to anyone .
But Long Chen didn’t do anything yet . He just continued to watch . Over one thousand five hundred Corrupt disciples had appeared ahead .
However, Long Chen could tell they were all just second-rates . Although they were vicious, when it came to true combat ability, they were unable to compare to the monastery’s disciples .
So although both sides had almost the same number of troops, as long as the monastery’s disciples could suppress their fear, these Corrupt disciples were definitely not their match .
The main point was that Long Chen wasn’t present amongst them, and so that was a great blow to their confidence . However, that was also the most optimum way to temper them .
No matter how strong a person was, there was no way they could forever protect everyone beside them . And so a person had to fight for their own life .
“Kill!”
The person at the front of the Corrupt disciples was a tall man who appeared extremely malevolent . With an angry bellow, he brought his blood-colored machete hacking down on Tang Wan-er .
“Leave this fellow to me!” Gu Yang rushed over beside Tang Wan-er . Runes lit up all over his body as he smashed his fist at that fellow .
Gu Yang’s physical body was extremely powerful . With his runes supporting him, his fist was like steel, ruthlessly slamming into that person’s machete .
That person was also physically powerful, someone who specialized in brute strength . He began to fiercely fight against Gu Yang .
By this time, the rest of the Corrupt disciples had already rushed over . They all brought their weapons slas.h.i.+ng down on them .
For some reason, when these enemies charged up this close, Tang Wan-er instead calmed down . Perhaps for her, once her nervousness reached its peak, it would instead bring her into complete calm .
Her Spiritual Strength swept through the ranks of her enemies . She quickly realized they actually had three more core disciples than them .
“Form up into your formations! Defend and attack as one!” shouted Tang Wan-er . That was something Long Chen had drilled them in before . When both sides’ strengths were very similar, it was better to form up squads containing both stronger and weaker members . There would be some in charge of attacking, and some in charge of defending . That would raise their collective combat ability .
Even as she shouted, she charged over, a wind blade in her hand slas.h.i.+ng down on a Corrupt core disciple .
BOOM!
This time, Tang Wan-er no longer had any misgivings . All that remained in her mind was to kill her opponents, and she brought out her full strength .
The saber in that Corrupt core disciple’s hand directly shattered under Tang Wan-er’s wind blade, and he was sent flying .
“Highwind Thorn!”
Tang Wan-er gave him no chance to recover . Her left hand flung out, and an arrow formed from her wind energy shot straight through his heart .
That wind arrow containing her runic strength was even harder than ordinary steel . Her opponent hadn’t had any chance to defend, immediately dying .
Long Chen smiled approvingly . As expected, a person’s potential was unlimited .
Tang Wan-er had finally felt enough pressure . She knew she had to kill the Corrupt core disciples as fast as possible, or the troops behind her would definitely suffer greatly .
And so the way she had fought just now had basically just been by instinct . She hadn’t been thinking anything in her head . She wasn’t thinking about what move to do, or what kind of attack sequence to use . All that she thought was to kill him in one hit .
Having killed a Corrupt core disciple in one attack, even she was surprised with herself . However, she didn’t have time to think about it too much . She immediately moved to attack another core disciple .
Tang Wan-er’s strength gave the Corrupt disciples a fright . Three of their core disciples immediately rushed over to her .
Tang Wan-er shouted and her ancestral mark appeared over her forehead . A huge wind blade roared in her hands as she attacked the three of them .
BOOM!
In just the first exchange, the three of them were sent flying by her wind blade . The terrifying aftershocks killed a dozen unlucky fellows around them .
“Windroll Destructive Cloud!”
Thousands of wind blades appeared around Tang Wan-er’s body . They were quickly revolving, following the movements of her hands .
Those thousands of wind blades appeared like a cloud as they surged over to those Corrupt disciples .
Each one of those wind blades were formed by her wind energy and supplemented by her runic energy . Those ordinary Corrupt disciples did not possess any ability to resist them and were all cut into pieces .
