Chapter 67 Outstanding (2/2)

Right at this time, Lan Xuanyu had rushed to the riverbed. He suddenly leaped up and jumped towards the Hippo’s back. He then used his toes to make another jump to cross the river from its back and that’s the time when he threw the other ice ball in his left hand.

The ice ball flew and was then suddenly split into three as they soared separately towards the group of Nether Wolves.

The three wolves arrived at the riverbed just in time but they were frightened by the furious Hippo. No matter how gentle and cordial the Hippo was, it was still a powerful 1,000-year spirit beast. Its strength and defense were at a level that the Nether wolves could not afford to challenge.

Right at this time, the three ice balls arrived before them and they immediately laid low, however, they didn’t sense any threat coming from it.

But, a strange scene occurred. The three ice balls were roughly two meters away from their heads when they suddenly swerved and flew towards the Hippo. The ice balls actually flew in an arc in midair.

The Hippo had its eyes closed while enjoying its shower. When the ice balls exploded and pierced its weak eyelids, the gentle 1,000-year Hippo was enraged. While roaring in anger, Lan Xuanyu was already on its back but due to its massive mass and defense, it did not sense him but it definitely felt the three Nether wolves approaching it. In the midst of its roar, it turned its head just in time to see three ice balls flying towards it.

‘It’s them!’

“Roar—” The Hippo fumed with rage. The three ice balls were instantly shattered into powder as it stood up in the river and opened its blood-filled mouth at the three Nether wolves.

“Aoo, Aoo, Aoo!” The immense shockwaves blew the three Nether wolves away, yelping in sharp notes as they ran away with their tails between their legs.

If they knew how to speak, they would definitely have shouted: “It wasn’t us!”

Although the Hippo had a huge size and moved slowly, it had survived against many carnivorous beasts. This meant that aside from its thick and coarse exterior, it possessed other means of deterrence.

Hippos were mostly herbivores but they could eat and digest meat in desperate times. Its innate ability was to devour and wield terrifying sucking abilities. Its gigantic mouth was large enough to devour half a Nether wolf without a problem.

Its furious state caused the three Nether wolves to turn tail and run.

Lan Xuanyu sat on the other side of the river, slightly flustered with his face red and fear in his eyes but after seeing the three Nether wolves running, he heaved a sigh of relief with a back full of sweat.

‘It’s really dangerous here!’

The various teachers looked at each other, where even Mu Chongtian’s heart was in shock.

The Hippo attempted to swallow the wolves? An eight-year-old child was actually able to achieve that? Especially Lan Xuanyu’s control with the ice balls, they were executed wonderfully. The last three swerving ice balls were the crucial factors that determined the result of this skirmish. He borrowed the might of the Hippo to scare away the calamity brought by the Nether wolves.

Be it his adaptation of speed, reaction, or his control over his own spirit, the entire process was worthy of praise to the extent that it could be deemed as a textbook response towards the beasts!

“I’m taking this kid.” Mu Zhongtian smacked his thighs.
