Murong Xue stopped, looking at them with cold eyes.

"Leave the core here." Xie Linna said.

Murong Xue's look grew colder, and she smiled. "Are you going to rob me of it?" Holding the sword handle in her hand, she was secretly gathering spiritual power.

"Linna, shut up!" The captain, Lin Nan, instantly told Xie Linna off. He had been dissatisfied with her because she not only always disobeyed orders but also caused trouble. However, it happened that her father was a mentor of Fenghua College. He could tolerate trivial problems brought by her, but this young man looked very strange at first glance. Although he only had yellow-level cultivation, he defeated the giant-tooth beast in front of them.

For a person with such cultivation, even if they combined, they were not his match. He didn't want to risk the lives of the whole team because of Xie Linna. He carefully studied the young man in front of him, who looked cold and had a solemn temperament, which didn't belong to people who cultivated leisurely in Fenghua College. It must be the result of countless fights.

"Elder fellow brother, he took our core away. Why did you tell me to shut up? We should get our stuff back!" Because she was injured before, she caught up late and didn't see Murong Xue use spiritual power to defeat the giant-tooth beast. She only saw how Murong Xue took the core away.

This core could decide whether their team could make it to the top three or not. How could she just give it up? She took a fancy to a magic weapon in the rewards. Although the rewards would be shared equally by the whole team, if she traded other things for it, they were unlikely to say no. After all, they feared her father.

"Linna, stop!" Wu Xiaomei gently pulled the sleeve of Xie Linna and said in a low voice.

Lin Nan went up and bowed with his hands cupped. He said respectfully, "I'm sorry, master. My teammate is mischievous, and I hope you don't mind." They generally called people with strong cultivation "masters" to show their respect.

"Elder fellow brother, are you mad? He only had yellow-level cultivation. Why do you call him master?" Xie Linna said in disbelief, shoving off Wu Xiaomei's hand that had been pulling her.

Murong Xue drew Phoenix Sword out. Things in a violent world still had to be solved by violence.

Lin Nan's face changed and hurriedly explained respectfully, "Master, we'll teach her a lesson, and we won't bother you." He had a bad feeling that if they offended this man in front of them, they wouldn't be able to get away with it.

"Oh?" Murong Xue waved the sword in her hand.

With a look, Lin Nan immediately signaled to the other two members, Zhao Qi and Zhu Ming, to stop Xie Linna.

They were not as stupid as Xie Linna.

"Master, I'm sorry to bother you." Lin Nan said with a respectful tone.

Now that he had a good attitude, Murong Xue decided to let go. She put away her sword and left with Xiaobai.

Xie Linna was exasperated and her spiritual power suddenly burst out. She shook off her teammates who were trying to stop her, not caring whether she would hurt them. Then Xie Linna rushed towards Murong Xue.

Zhao Qi and Zhu Ming were just pulling her gently as they didn't dare to use too much strength on the daughter of their mentor. They didn't expect her to get rid of their grips suddenly.

Murong Xue sensed the surge of spiritual power behind her. In an instant, she gathered enough spiritual power on her palm and gave her a backhand blow.

"Ah!"

Like a kite with a broken line, Xie Linna flew about 40 feet in the opposite direction before landing, exacerbating her injury that had not yet healed. She vomited one mouthful of blood and felt so painful that it seemed her internal organs were displaced. How could a person at yellow-level have such cultivation? She was shocked.

"Linna!" Wu Xiaomei hurried up to check how she was. Wu Xiaomei was an assistant in the team, not strong in fighting capacity, but she could help them, and she was the only alchemist in the team, though at a low level.

Wu Xiaomei took out the healing pill and fed it to Xie Linna.

Xie Linna vomited another mouthful of blood. She was probably deeply hurt.

Wu Xiaomei did a check-up, and her face changed. Xie Linna was so badly hurt that her spirit root was affected. If one’s spirit root was hurt, it was hard to make progress in cultivation.

She immediately took out a few healing pills and fed them to Xie Linna.

At this time, Xie Linna couldn't utter a word. She felt the pain in her soul, let alone her body. She soon realized what had happened, and her face blanched.

Murong Xue gave Xie Linna a cold look. She only used half of her power. If she had attacked at full capacity, a corpse would have been lying here.

Lin Nan raised his eyebrows because he failed to stop Xie Linna. He walked over and saw Xie Linna's look. His face changed dramatically in an instant.

The other two people took a complicated look at Murong Xue and also walked over to Xie Linna. If anything happened to Xie Linna, they wouldn't be able to get away with it. Maybe her father would first blame it on them.

Murong Xue looked at them indifferently and pulled out her Phoenix Sword again.

"You spared her life, but you should kill such a woman." Xiaobai said in an indifferent voice. But its voice was childish, and it sounded like a child was mumbling.

Fengyun Continent was a place where martial arts were valued most. If you showed mercy now, you would probably be retaliated sometime later.

Murong Xue glanced at Xiaobai. Although she already learned something from Xiaobai about Fengyun Continent, it would take some time for her to get used to it. The good news was that she made some progress.

In short, she wouldn't look for trouble until trouble troubled her. If someone insisted on finding fault with her, she had no choice but to be ruthless.

It took a while for Xie Linna to feel better. She had never been wronged like this ever since she was a kid. Because her father was the mentor of Fenghua College, she could always cash in on her dad's identity to serve her personal needs. Of course, she didn’t dare to go too far, but so far no one had the nerve to hurt her.

"Go get him! I want him to endure the living death!" Xie Linna looked at Murong Xue with evil eyes. This b*st*rd had the nerve to hurt her! She must make him regret his existence in this world.

"Stop fooling around! Your injury is not bad enough?" Lin Nan said in a cold voice.

He was really close just now and saw clearly that the boy had blue-level cultivation. Blue-level! He was a genius. Even if he had the highest level in the team, his cultivation was only at the beginning stage of cyan-level.

"He is outnumbered! Why are you afraid of him?" Xie Linna wouldn't listen to anything at this time. Embarrassment and anger got the better of her.

"Help her go back first, and I'll apologize to the master." Lin Nan gave the boy a side look. A sword in one hand, and a ball of white stuff on the other, he emanated a grave, cold, and stern aura and didn’t seem to take them seriously.

It was not about whether they should take revenge or not. Rather, it was about whether the boy was willing to let them get away with it.

"Do you want to be expelled from Fenghua College?" Xie Linna put her hand on her chest and said coldly with a menacing voice.

They looked at Xie Linna in unison and were shocked that she said something like this.

"If you don't want to be expelled from Fenghua College, get him now, or none of you can continue studying at Fenghua College after I go back. Besides, don't even dream to have a place on Fengyun Continent. You know that I can make it happen." Xie Linna saw that they still stayed put and kept egging them on.

Xie Linna dared to talk to them like this because they all had humble backgrounds, though their cultivation was not bad. Dealing with them wouldn’t offend people who shouldn't be offended. She wouldn't dare to say those words to a person with a strong background.

Lin Nan and the other teammates all pulled a long face. Anyway, they were all teammates. Never had they expected that Xie Linna would treat them like this. They helped clean the mess caused by her and shouldered a lot of responsibilities. Though dissatisfied with her personality, they always treated her as an important partner and stood by her side.

But now it didn’t seem that Xie Linna had treated them as partners.

"Linna, why did you talk like this? Aren't we friends?" Wu Xiaomei asked, biting her lips.

Xie Linna sneered, "Friend? With you? You are just my lackeys! I told you to go east, and you dare not go west. That's called a lackey." Normally, she wouldn't go so far or totally ignore their feelings. But Murong Xue just crushed her self-esteem, plus she was furious that Murong Xue might have hurt her spirit root. The fact that they were unwilling to do what she said was the last straw, so she completely lost her mind.

"You..." Zhao Qi pointed at Xie Linna with sad and disappointed eyes!
