When Mo Han and the others arrived, Shen Yuan’s group was in a deadlock with the people from Shihu Hall. Even though Shen Yuan’s side was strong, they couldn’t handle the enemy’s large numbers. For a while, neither side could win.
Zhou Wu stopped the bus nearby and shouted,
“Big Brother! Stop fighting! Get on the bus—we’ll break out!”
“Trying to run? No way!”
The Tiger Leader, who was fighting Zhong Tianxiang, suddenly pulled out a gun and shot the bus tire, blowing it up. He almost lost his hand to Zhong Tianxiang’s metal blade at the same time.
“Damn it.” With the tire destroyed, the bus couldn’t move anymore.
Mo Han said, “Everyone get off and prepare to break through!”
Shen Yuan and the others quickly got away from their opponents and regrouped with Si Tu Yu’s team. At the same time, people from Tianhuo Hall also arrived in vehicles from behind.
Zhou Wu said bitterly,
“Big Brother, those behind us are from Tianhuo Hall. They’re chasing us too—we’re surrounded.”
Shen Yuan said calmly,
“Protect those who can’t fight in the center. We’ll break through from the Shihu Hall side.”
Suddenly, Mo Han shouted loudly,
“Big Brother! Tianhuo Hall is here to help us! We don’t need to fear Shihu Hall anymore—beat them up!”
The people from Shihu Hall were shocked. When their leaders saw the Tianhuo Hall bus rushing over—and realized Mo Han’s group had been driving one too—their faces changed.
These enemies were already hard to deal with. If Tianhuo Hall joined them, Shihu Hall would definitely lose!
The Lion Leader quickly decided,
“Shihu Hall, retreat immediately!”
Mo Han was stunned. He didn’t expect his random shout to work so well.
Wait—no! Damn it! Come back!
In the original story, many of Shen Yuan’s group broke through to higher levels during intense fights. If the enemy left now, how would they level up?!
Si Tu Yu smacked the back of Mo Han’s head.
“Stop spacing out—run!”
“Okay…” Mo Han followed, feeling miserable. Did I just make things worse?
But Shihu Hall wasn’t stupid. When they saw Tianhuo Hall attacking Mo Han’s group, they realized the truth.
The Lion Leader’s face turned ugly.
“They tricked us! Brothers, attack again!”
Seeing them come back, Zhou Wu copied Mo Han and shouted,
“Brother Lion, Brother Tiger, I knew you wouldn’t abandon us!”
Zhou Hai threw a fire blade at Zhou Wu.
“Idiot! Do you think I’m as stupid as them?!”
Zhou Wu dodged and replied,
“Aren’t they stupid? Otherwise why fight us?”
Now that Shihu Hall returned, Mo Han’s group was completely surrounded. He knew they couldn’t drag this out. The more energy they used, the harder it would be to escape.
“Ice Forming: Giant Blade!”
A huge ice blade more than ten meters long slashed down. The people from Shihu Hall screamed and scattered in fear—but the blade disappeared halfway. Mo Han never meant to really attack—just scare them. Even so, it used up one-third of his and Xue Ling’s power.
Lin Xi quickly raised a wall of earth to block the enemies from returning. Finally, the group broke out of the encirclement and ran toward the base entrance.
Tianhuo Hall and Shihu Hall chased after them.
Zhao Yan used his all-seeing eye ability to shoot backward without looking, accurately blowing out all the tires of Tianhuo Hall’s vehicles.
Seeing this, Mo Han felt lucky. The leaders of the three factions were originally normal people and didn’t have many guns. Otherwise, things would have been much worse. For people below level three, guns were still very dangerous.
As they reached the base entrance, Lin Wenchong shouted to the guards,
“Close the gate! Shut it now!”
Before the guards could react, Brother Cheng blasted them away with a fireball.
At that moment, Xiao Cheng suddenly understood something and broke through his bottleneck, advancing to the late stage of level two.
Shen Yuan, Si Tu Yu, and Zhong Tianxiang were all top geniuses. They had been stuck at the same level for a while. Seeing Brother Cheng’s breakthrough inspired them, and they also broke through one after another.
Mo Han was completely shocked.
What?! We were supposed to grow together! And you all just left me behind and broke through?!
He had the original body’s talent, but not its understanding. No matter how hard he thought, he couldn’t figure out how to reach that level.
After breaking through, Xiao Cheng felt full of energy and smiled dangerously.
“I’m not the type to take abuse quietly. What about you?”
Shen Yuan and the others also released powerful auras, staring coldly at their enemies.
Mo Han was still confused. Why does everything suddenly feel so dangerous?
Before he could finish thinking, Brother Cheng and the others—now stronger—charged back into battle.
“What the hell?!”
Mo Han felt like his mind was exploding. You just advanced one level—do you have to be this crazy?!
“Good! Let’s wipe them out!”
Liu Qing was the first to react and rushed into the fight.
Zhao Yan quickly followed her to protect her.
Mo Han didn’t fully understand what was happening, but he suddenly felt excited too. He patted Xue Ling and said,
“Zhou Wu, take care of Xue Ying. Xue Ling, let’s go!”
At first, the enemy relied on numbers. But as their level-two fighters were killed one by one, they lost their courage and unity. Soon, they panicked and ran away.
After the battle, most people improved their strength. Liu Qing also advanced to level two.
As for Mo Han… he felt like the world was against him. No matter what he did, he couldn’t break through.
In the end, Xue Ling broke through first, and through their shared power, Mo Han was pulled up to the next level too.
For some reason… this kind of breakthrough made Mo Han feel strangely embarrassed.
