X-Dragon Era

During Xin Yun's observation, Instructor Mei Wu's voice rang out, "What are you all doing? Do you really want to take me on three against one? Step back two of you right away!"

Hearing Instructor Mei Wu's words, the three guys looked at each other, but none of them was willing to back down, as nobody wanted to give up the chance to stand out so easily!

Seeing this, Xin Yun laughed and said loudly, "Instructor Mei Wu, since they are so eager to fight me, let them all stay, a three against one battle is even more thrilling."

"What!" Hearing Xin Yun's bold declaration, the surrounding spectators cried out in shock, and the three guys on the stage were even more furious, as it was a naked contempt... But seriously, taking on Xin Yun three against one was too shameful for them to accept.

As they considered their options, the three of them gave Xin Yun a fierce glare, preparing to step down and leave when Xin Yun suddenly raised his voice and shouted, "Instructor Mei Wu, although the competition has not started yet, my challenge has already been issued, and now that they have stepped into the arena, that means they have accepted my challenge.

Unless I refuse, they must continue the fight if they wish not to be counted as having lost by leaving the stage now!"

Hearing Xin Yun's words, Instructor Mei Wu nodded and said, "That's right. The Combat Dragon Academy has strict rules regarding challenges. Xin Yun's invitation to battle has been issued, and all three of you have accepted and taken the stage. Although three against one does not adhere to the rules, the battle must proceed unless Xin Yun refuses."

Hearing Instructor Mei Wu's words, Xin Yun laughed heartily and declared decisively, "Since they are so interested in me, how could I let them down? Three against one, I accept!"

"Ladies and gentlemen, take note! The match... begins!" With Instructor Mei Wu's command, the peak duel of one against three finally commenced...

As the match began, under the excited gaze of all the students, the Wind Luanniao was the first to strike. Its body swayed left and right, disappearing in an instant, only to reappear behind Xin Yun, its claws swinging and sending a dozen golden Wind Blades spinning towards him.

At the same time that the Wind Luanniao launched its attack, the massive Flame Dragon resembling a winged lizard let out a fierce cry. With a single claw thrust towards the sky, hundreds of Fireballs howled down from above, completely covering Xin Yun within the bombardment range.

Of course, the Ice Dragon Lead did not want to be outdone, spreading its body immediately, flapping its wings towards Xin Yun. Simultaneously, three shadowless, barely visible ice spikes with faint shimmering tips howled forth.

For a moment, the space in front, behind, and above Xin Yun was completely overwhelmed by attacks. Though he could dodge to the left or right, how could his three opponents, who were prepared for this, let him escape easily?

As Xin Yun faced the oncoming barrage of attacks, he felt an unprecedented thrill. Under his command, Yinglong's wings unfolded swiftly, and with a single flap, Yinglong's figure vanished.

"I knew you'd come here!" The moment Xin Yun disappeared, the Wind Luanniao had already moved to Xin Yun's right side. As its beak opened, a Dragon Breath comprised of a thousand interwoven Wind Blades roared out, shooting directly at the newly appeared Xin Yun.

The Dragon Breath of the Wind Luanniao was terrifying; it contained a thousand minuscule Wind Blades that spun and cut incessantly, capable of carving a huge hole in steel at the very instant of impact.

Faced with the oncoming Dragon Breath, Xin Yun couldn't help but bitterly smile. He wasn't outmaneuvered by his opponents' brilliance; it was simply that he only had two directions to dodge, left or right, and with three opponents, any move he made could be anticipated.

As previously mentioned, within a hundred meters, the speed of the Dragon Breath could be considered equivalent to the speed of light, arriving before one's mental reaction could even begin, leaving no room for evasion, especially since Xin Yun had only just dodged at full speed and was unable to react in time.

However, nothing is absolute. Before the Dragon Breath is fired, there is still the action of opening the mouth; although brief, it's like drawing a gun to fire, inevitably requiring movement. If judged correctly, dodging can still be quite easy.

But the rider of the Wind Luanniao was evidently a master and a true one at that. He arrived at the same moment Xin Yun disappeared, opened the dragon's mouth right before Xin Yun reappeared, and shot out the Dragon Breath exactly when Xin Yun became visible, timing it so perfectly, it was a delight to watch.

"Good! Very good..." Seeing this move, thousands of students on the field cheered loudly at the same time. This textbook execution of timing, typically only discussed in classrooms, was being witnessed firsthand by most of them for the first time.

"Mmm, mmm, mmm..." Watching the Wind Luanniao's attack, even Instructor Mei Wu nodded appreciatively. She had to admit, there were indeed geniuses in this world. The timing of this particular attack was on point; even if Instructor Mei Wu herself had been in the arena, it would have been no different.

In truth, even Yi Luo Xiang and Yan Qingying praised the strike, tapping their thighs in appreciation. Of course, do not assume they were simply praising an outsider; in reality, such scenes were common in their regular combat training, occurring hundreds of times every day. However, seeing such skill demonstrated by someone else for the first time was worth a small commendation.

On the other hand, faced with the oncoming Wind Luanniao, the Ice Dragon swiftly approaching from the side, and the Flame Dragon initiating its second wave of wide-ranging attacks, Xin Yun made a decision in an instant.
