"The one who killed Suo Thirteen, Wan Lei?"
The disciple from the Five Elements Hall confirmed again.
"That would be me..."
"Hahahaha."
The Five Elements Hall disciple threw his head back and laughed, then immediately turned serious.
"Good, I have one last question for you. Did you kill Suo Thirteen alone?"
Unsure of what was going on with this somewhat neurotic individual, Wan Lei nodded.
"Excellent. A young rogue cultivator who can kill a Five Elements Hall disciple single-handedly is truly rare.
Normally, at headquarters, when we spar, the rule about not being allowed to kill is extremely annoying. I can't unleash my full potential, and I'm constantly held back, unable to fight a proper battle.
Out in the world, most of the peers I encounter can't even withstand one of my moves, and I can't kill them. If I do kill them, I'll be punished.
Therefore, I usually seek out older, stronger opponents, but that's not entirely fair.
Today, I've finally met a peer with decent talent. Come, let's fight three hundred rounds, it's either you die or I die!"
What is wrong with this guy? He's like a lunatic.
Everyone's eyes showed a hint of disdain.
"Perhaps he's a battle maniac, someone who enjoys life-and-death combat. He's annoyed that he can't kill people during peer matches, so he must be bloodthirsty.
If such a combative and bloodthirsty person is released, who knows how many people will die by his hand."
Fang Xiaoyu frowned. Although she had killed quite a few people, she was by no means bloodthirsty. In reality, she was usually an iceberg of a person, and unless absolutely necessary, she basically couldn't be bothered to interact with anyone.
"Hmm, someone like him should be sent to the Sea of Suffering battlefield, let him kill demons to his heart's content."
Xia Yubing nodded.
"Come on, this is clearly a psychological problem. Once this kind of person sees blood, he can't control himself. He has to fight until the enemy is wiped out or he dies himself.
Once the killing intent is nurtured, it's hard to retract. He'll be prone to disobeying orders on the battlefield and even harming his own comrades."
Although Wan Qianxin hadn't experienced this himself, his analysis was logical and well-founded.
However, everyone's train of thought had clearly strayed off course...
They seemed to have forgotten that there was still an enemy not far away.
"You, come out and fight me. If you're capable, you can take my head. If you're inferior to me, then die by my blade!"
The Five Elements Hall disciple still looked down with arrogance.
"Me? Fight you one-on-one?"
Wan Lei asked carefully.
"Otherwise?"
Wan Lei nodded and picked up his hammer. Seeing this, the Five Elements Hall disciple sneered, his palm brushed his blood-soaked long saber, and flames erupted.
All the disciples from the Five Elements Hall who came to the Lava Death Domain this time were from the Fire Hall, so they were all fire-attribute users.
A wisp of black flame appeared on the Five Elements Hall disciple's hand, his eyes were dark, exuding a terrifying aura of wanting to devour people, and he prepared his stance, ready to fight.
He had always wanted to find someone who could match him in a fight, someone who could decide life and death, so he could fight a hearty battle. Only then could his abilities be fully unleashed.
He had waited for this day for too long.
The young man in front of him had a not-weak aura and decent cultivation; it was fair and fitting.
He wanted to kill the person in front of him, not to bring glory to the Five Elements Hall, nor to avenge Suo Thirteen, but solely for his own long-cherished wish.
A one-on-one, life-and-death battle!
Wan Lei's eyes also showed a killing intent, he raised his hammer and shouted with high fighting spirit,
"Brothers, chop him to death!"
With that, Wan Lei took the lead and charged forward, Fang Xiaoyu close behind.
Dada and the four little ones were stunned for a moment, then grinned, finding it amusing, and charged forward as well.
The Five Elements Hall disciple was dumbfounded.
Hey, wait a minute, what happened to the one-on-one fight? What's with this group brawl? Are you that dishonorable?
In fact, for Wan Lei, if a group fight was possible, he would absolutely avoid a one-on-one. When he fought Suo Thirteen earlier, he wanted to see the level of the Five Elements Hall disciples.
Now that he had seen it, his curiosity was gone. Currently, they were here specifically to kill people, and they intended to kill many. Naturally, it was best to finish quickly.
I have so many brothers, why should I fight you one-on-one? Isn't it better to crush you to death?
It's as if you wouldn't gang up on me if I fought you one-on-one, right?
Wan Lei swung his hammer at the Five Elements Hall disciple. The man parried with his saber, feeling as if he had been hit by a mountain, and was sent flying backward. Fang Xiaoyu's figure suddenly appeared behind him like a phantom, her twin swords stabbing at his shoulder blade.
The disciple let out a scream, Dada swung his spiked club at him, and then the four little ones spread out, surrounding him, wielding their weapons and attacking.
Everyone ganged up on the Five Elements Hall disciple. However, the space was limited, and the kind-hearted Bao Bao could never squeeze in, so he could only control vines from a distance to restrain the enemy.
The pitiable Five Elements Hall disciple, who loved to fight all his life and had outstanding combat strength, even earning the nickname "Berserk Warrior" among the Fire Hall disciples of the Five Elements Hall (self-proclaimed, others called him "Mad Dog"), was now being ganged up on by a group of rogue cultivators. This was an absolutely unbearable humiliation.
After the initial shock and panic, he, as a disciple of the Five Elements Hall, quickly regained his composure.
His battle-hardened experience told him that he had to find the weakest person to break through the encirclement, engage in a prolonged fight with the enemy, and not fall into a passive position by being surrounded.
He observed carefully. This person named Wan Lei was clearly the leader and must be the strongest. He was currently leading the charge, making it difficult to break through with a single strike.
That Divine Clan member... forget it. Divine Clan members had the strongest physique, making them the hardest to fight.
Those few children, although young, were all fierce in their attacks. They must be prodigies from great clans with many tricks up their sleeves.
Finally, his gaze fell upon the exquisite woman with twin swords who had been moving around in one spot.
This woman, a wind-attribute user, had weak offensive power and could only strike opportunistically, not daring to charge forward. She was clearly not strong in cultivation or physique. Using her to break through the encirclement would be perfect.
Having made up his mind, he immediately swung his saber towards Fang Xiaoyu.
During this process, he endured several blows to his back, but he gritted his teeth and, holding his flaming long saber high, he slashed down with all his might, disregarding his own safety.
Seeing this, Fang Xiaoyu immediately blocked with her swords. The moment the long saber collided with the twin swords, flames erupted and surged towards Fang Xiaoyu.
However, when those flames hit Fang Xiaoyu, they were strangely absorbed.
Immediately after, Fang Xiaoyu kicked out, sending the young man flying.
The youth in mid-air was bewildered. This strength, this physique, was she the weakest?
At that moment, he felt utterly deceived.
"You guys are not fighting honorably!!!"
