539 This isnst a boy, its a monster! (1/2)

In the solitude of the night, Tyger Li and Eventide Great Wolf's voice was exceedingly clear in the quiet courtyard. Their conversation was naturally heard by Shi Xiaobai and Mu Lengxi.

Mu Lengxi frowned as she glared angrily at her father. She found him despicable while the soldiers were detestable. They could not beat Shi Xiaobai individually and they were now planning on ganging up on him. To have six people at the Psionic Might Realm fight a single person at the Psionic Mortal Realm, did they have any honor?

Shi Xiaobai did not seem to mind. Such campy cookie-cutter plots of 'defeating a trivial figure before another bunch of trivial figures come, and eventually, an old one coming' was not a surprise to him. He was also long accustomed to fighting one against many.

Not only did Shi Xiaobai not show fear, but he took a step forward and said sarcastically, ”This King told you to send the seven pieces of shit up together earlier on but you refused to heed the advice. Now, do you finally understand This King's painstaking efforts? Do you know your faults?”

Tyger Li's expression turned grim as he coldly said, ”What a thick-headed mouth of yours! This Emperor wants to see if your skin is as thick as your mouth!”

Shi Xiaobai took another step forward and said with a laugh, ”The skin on your face is the thickest!”

Tyger Li was incensed as he waved his hand at the six people behind him. He bellowed, ”Slaughter him for This Emperor!”

”Yes!”

The six soldiers roared with their heads up, sending a reverberation through the night sky.

”Second Wolf, Third Wolf and I will restrain him in a guerrilla fashion. Fourth Wolf and Fifth Wolf, harass him from the sides while Sixth Wolf, find an opportunity to launch a sneak attack!”

Eventide Great Wolf lowered his voice as he quickly instructed his team. His expression was solemn as though he was about to enter a battlefield.

”Yes!”

The five soldiers responded with a solemn expression.

The battle strategy that Eventide Great Wolf had employed was used when they were fighting a powerful foe that they could not withstand directly. It was a 'battle of attrition' that they had no choice but to use. By restraining, harassment and sneak attacks, they could slowly enervate their enemy, draining the enemy's patience and stamina before they finally devoured them.

Such a battle strategy was rather despicable and insidious. Typically, it was an unscrupulous technique used when they could not obtain victory in an above the board and straightforward manner. If others were to know that the Seven Wolfskins had used such a battle strategy to deal with a boy at the Psionic Mortal Realm, they would probably laugh their heads off.

However, Eventide Great Wolf had still decisively chosen this battle strategy. The other five did not raise any objections. It wasn't because Shi Xiaobai was so strong that they had to use a strategy of attrition to garner victory but it was because they could not afford to lose.

With the battle strategy decided and the command issued, the six soldiers immediately took action. Eventide Great Wolf, Second and Third Wolf rushed straight at Shi Xiaobai, while Fourth and Fifth Wolf flanked him from both sides of the courtyard. Eventide Sixth Wolf retreated outside of the courtyard and disappeared into the darkness.

Mu Lengxi had a drastic change in expression when she saw this. She cursed at their shamelessness. For six to fight one, they truly had no shame to utilize such a battle strategy.

”This King will be right back. Protect yourself well.”

Shi Xiaobai showed no fear and was instead abnormally excited. Intense fighting spirit was invoked in him. After exhorting Mu Lengxi, he rushed at the trio that was charging at him.

His left foot moved to the left while his right foot went to the right. He took steps to both his sides and suddenly, his figure turned to a blur in the night.

”Here he comes. Left!”

Eventide Second Wolf alerted the companions beside him.

”That's not correct. It's the right!”

Eventide Third Wolf exclaimed in shock.

”Is it the left or right?”

Eventide Great Wolf's furrowed his eyebrows. The boy's figure in his assault at night was too strange. He would at times appear to the left but suddenly run to the right the next moment. It was a mixture of real and sham, truth mingled with falsehood. His speed was astonishingly fast and he was practically that of a mirage. They were unable to instantly discern his encroachment’s trajectory.
