Battles continued at the foot of the mountain.

Three hours was very short, but to the students, who had to face constant attacks from the golden flame spiders, time seemed to have taken an unusually long time to pass.

As every minute and every second passed, they could distinctly feel their physical strength being consumed.

Almost all the boys and girls in the 39th campground were around the eighth layer True Martial Stage, and many were already at the ninth layer True Martial Stage.

Only very few people were at the sixth layer True Martial Stage like Lin Xun. They were considered at the very bottom.

One’s cultivation was one’s source of energy in battle. The stronger a person’s cultivation, the greater their combat power. This was obvious.

Based on this fact, Lin Xun was undoubtedly at a disadvantage.

However, Ning Meng was likely the only one who knew that Lin Xun had a cultivation base at the sixth layer True Martial Stage but possessed aeth power that was no weaker than the pinnacle of the eighth layer True Martial Stage!

Lin Xun wasn’t too worried about being eliminated because he had calculated that it shouldn’t be too difficult to withstand the spiders’ attacks for three hours as long as he continued with the same fighting technique.

However, it wasn't long before Lin Xun’s face darkened. A youngster in the nearby area was suddenly moving closer to him

His breathing seemed a little chaotic and he looked a little distressed being chased by a cluster of golden flame spiders. It seemed he couldn’t withstand the attacks anymore.

“Buddy, help me deal with them for a while!”

As soon as the youngster neared Lin Xun, he also brought with him a cluster of golden flame spiders. Lin Xun’s pressure instantly increased.

But what made Lin Xun frown was that the youngster seemed to be just using him as a shield while he hid behind him to rest. He wasn’t polite at all.

If Instructor Xiaoke hadn’t told them earlier that they mustn’t attack or kill each other, Lin Xun would have stabbed him without any hesitation.

Lin Xun would no doubt suffer punishment if he disobeyed the order and faced elimination!

Perhaps the youngster realized this, which was why he dared to act in such a shameless way.

“Hey buddy, you seem to be very dissatisfied with me, but I, Xin Wenbin, won’t make you work for nothing. My father is the commander of the Imperial Army in the Forbidden City. He has huge power and status. If you’re eliminated here, I will tell my family to guarantee that you can enjoy a life of wealth and comfort.”

The youngster who was called Xin Wenbin said loftily. “Of course, you have to perform well. Otherwise, if I’m affected by your poor performance, you will suffer unimaginable consequences when you leave the Blood Kill Camp.”

His voice was arrogant and bossy. He seemed to be ordering Lin Xun like a servant and he spoke in a threatening tone of voice.

“Idiot.” Lin Xun frowned.

“You dare to scold me?” Xin Wenbin snapped.

Lin Xun said with a smile, “I’ve called you an idiot already, but you still ask me if I dare to. You really are an idiot.”

A malicious look flashed into Xin Wenbin’s eyes as he swung his sword up and was about to hack at Lin Xun. But he suppressed his impulse in the end. Even if he was domineering, he knew that they shouldn’t kill each other.

“Little bastard, don’t look so smug. I will make you know what is worse than death later!” Xin Wenbin threatened.

Even though he was only thirteen to fourteen years old, he was tyrannical, and his words were ruthless. It was easy to imagine that he had done many similar things in the past.

“Idiot.” Lin Xun uttered disdainfully. He couldn’t be bothered to even talk to Xin Wenbin.

Xin Wenbin was so infuriated that the veins pulsed on his forehead. Then, it was unknown what he thought of but he smiled smugly. “It doesn’t matter what you say, we are on the same boat now. You have to act as my shield because you can’t stop fighting under the golden flame spider’s attacks.”

Indeed, although the two were quarreling, Lin Xun hadn’t once stopped his hand. He couldn't stop. There were far too many golden flame spiders and he would be the first to suffer an accident if they stopped.

Xin Wenbin looked very leisurely and relaxed as he deliberately hid behind Lin Xun. He received very few attacks and so, naturally, he was in no danger and could use the time to restore his energy.

The situation was indeed very suffocating for Lin Xun. Anyone being used in such a way would fume with rage and be filled with murderous intent.

However, Lin Xun only smiled disapprovingly.

At the same time, his fighting style abruptly changed. He gave up using the stabbing word art and switched to the rotating word art.

Shua! Shua! Shua!

His blade resembled a vortex as it rotated around the golden flame spiders that were charging towards him. He hurled them aside and, whether it was intention or not, they happened to reappear unwounded opposite of Xin Wenbin.

The golden flame spiders clearly possessed no intelligence. Once they came to realize that they were still alive, they charged towards Xin Wenbin, who was closest to them.

Xin Wenbin’s expression abruptly changed. He couldn’t hide any longer and immediately deflected the attacks with his sword.

However, just as he got rid of a cluster of golden flame spiders, Lin Xun’s blade vortex tossed another cluster over. Xin Wenbin’s pressure sharply increased.

“You dare you little bastard!”

Xin Wenbin was both shocked and furious. How would he not know that Lin Xun was retaliating?

“Oh, what are you talking about? I’m just killing the enemies. It’s your fault for coming near me. Also, your mouth stinks. Did you grow up eating shit every day?” Lin Xun looked bewildered but he didn’t slow down. He operated his rotating blade art to its peak state, hurling groups after groups of golden flame spiders over to Xin Wenbin’s side.

The golden flame spiders let out fierce cries and endlessly attacked Xin Wenbin. They made him so furious that smoke spouted out from his seven orifices and his face contorted with rage. He hated the fact that he couldn’t slash Lin Xun to death.

But no matter how furious he was, he had to constantly block and evade the golden flame spider’s attacks. He wasn’t as leisurely and relaxed as before.

Most importantly, the golden flame spiders had fully surrounded both Lin Xun and him. It was impossible to break out from their encirclement any time soon.

This also meant that Xin Wenbin had no other choice but to brace himself to kill the enemies.

“Little bastard, just you wait! Now that you have angered me, the young master, your life is over!” Xin Wenbin roared in fury.

“What? You really grew up eating shit every day? Haha, you and maggots are from the same family? No wonder your mouth stinks. If your parents heard you say something so perverted, they would be very upset.”

Lin Xun still donned a bewildered look, but his words were very vicious. He grew up in a mine prison, and so he was no doubt superior to Xin Wenbin when it came to cursing and scolding people.

“You—you—you—” Xin Wenbin was so enraged that his lungs almost exploded and he couldn’t say anything.

However, he knew that he couldn’t slash Lin Xun with his sword because there were far too many golden flame spiders surrounding them. He was in danger of even protecting himself.

Their movements caught the other students’ attention. Some gloated, some frowned and some pondered deeply.

“You tried to steal a chicken only to end up losing the rice! Ha! You useless scumbag!” Ning Meng spat out in disdain and scolded Xin Wenbin without any hesitation.

“No one dares to mess with Xin Wenbin in the Forbidden City. He gets away with anything because of his father’s power. He is insufferably arrogant. Unfortunately for him, this isn’t the Forbidden City. His identity and status mean nothing here…” Shi Yu chuckled but he seemed to look at Lin Xun differently.

Suddenly, someone yelled, “Brother Xin, don’t panic, I’ll come and help you.”

A figure flashed from the distance. It was fierce, imposing and extremely terrifying like an azure waterfall whizzing past.

Qi Can!

The youngster, who had shone brilliantly in the competition for a room yesterday, was clasping an iron spear and flowing with azure light. He sped over like a god of war, and instantly broke through the group of golden flame spiders encircling Xin Wenbin.

Rumble!

His iron spear shot through the spider cluster and, like a rainstorm engulfing everywhere, all golden flame spiders crumbled into powder!

“As students in the same camp, we should support each other, but you threw stones at someone who has already fallen down and harmed your comrade. You have such vicious intentions. From today on, I, Qi Can, vow to draw a line with you, a despicable person. I will never be friends with you!”

With one hand gripped around his spear, Qi Can stood tall, staring at Lin Xun. His eyes were filled with contempt, and his powerful and resounding words drew applause and cheers from many people.

He didn’t give Lin Xun a chance to speak, and just fled with Xin Wenbin.

Lin Xun frowned and snorted inwardly. What nonsense about harming comrades. He looks righteous but he clearly is on Xin Wenbin’s side.

He vowed to draw a line with me?

So absurd!

Does he think that I will try to butter him up?

What a bunch of baloney!

Lin Xun knew very well that Qi Can said those words to call on the others to go against him. His intentions were truly vicious.

At least, Lin Xun already felt that many people’s gazes flashed with hostility and hatred when they looked at him.

Especially Xin Wenbin. After Qi Can rescued him, he had been glowering at Lin Xun, which made a hint of murderous intent surface in Lin Xun’s heart.

Compared with the other students in the campground, he was indeed an insignificant person. But the poor, who have nothing to lose, do not fear those in power. Lin Xun dared to do anything if he was angered.

Lin Xun’s mentality was that people who were unafraid of the death of a thousand cuts were the ones who would dare to unhorse the emperor. He was an orphan and Mister Lu and Xia Zhi had already left him. He had nothing he was afraid of anymore.

Lin Xun quickly suppressed these thoughts to the bottom of his mind and continued the battle. His expression had never wavered once since the beginning.

Lin Xun firmly believed that, in the Blood Kill Camp, as long as he knew the rules, followed them, and made good use of them, he would be safe and sound.

Of course, if there was a chance, Lin Xun wouldn’t hesitate to use them to kill the enemies.

Forgiveness to the enemy was cruelty to oneself. This was very simple, but it was an indisputable word of wisdom since ancient times.

On the mountain peak, Xiaoke retracted her gaze from the battlefield, her graceful and beautiful face as calm and indifferent as usual.

She had watched everything happen but it drew little reaction from her.

That kind of dispute was very common in the Blood Kill Camp. Many similar incidents were bound to happen from today on, and many would be more cruel and bloody than what happened today.

Xiaoke just had to uphold the rules of the Blood Kill Camp. As long as the students didn’t violate the rules, she wouldn’t interfere in any way.

This was the Blood Kill Camp. It was fine to compete, confront each other, or hate each other, but they all must follow the rules!
