Assassination System

Dan unsheathed his sword and dashed at his enemies. Rotating his cultivation base and method along with the Chimera Flame. His body looked like a human rainbow as resplendent colors filled the air. Although it looked flashy and somewhat comical. Those that saw the light coming from his body couldn't help but tremble.

The Lightning suppressed their soul and cultivation base and the crimson-orange flame thoroughly suppressed their morale. Nevertheless, with the female disciple's howl of "Don't falter!" Each and everyone of them hoisted their weapons and brandished it at Dan's direction.

The superimposed might of these disciples disturbed Dan's heart as he didn't dare to relax his concentration. Using everything that he had, he didn't dare to feel any conceit as Dan's arms transformed into mirages and sent volleys of attacks towards the disciples in front of him.

A disciple in front easily disintegrated Dan's attack with a wave of his hand. Following an angry roar. He shot forward like a phantom, appearing in front of Dan in an instant. He moved so fast that it was almost impossible to see his movement.

Sword lights flashed by and Dan found himself overwhelmed with sword lights as numerous cuts appeared on his body. Clicking his tongue, Dan turned around and kicked the disciple with a reverse kick before jumping in retreat. Despite the intense pain that wracked his body. He never uttered any sounds of complaint.

He wanted to rest for a moment. But these disciples didn't give him the room to do so. That disciple who attacked him earlier took this opportunity to arrive behind him and slice right at his nape.

"Fuck off"

Dan roared and harshly turned around, a fierce blaze ignited and shot towards the disciple like a beam of fire. People were horrified to see that as soon as the flame landed on the disciple's body. His body slowly melted from the bottom to the top.

"You actually dared to use such a lowly flame towards this Luo Yang?" The disciple scoffed in disdain and raised his sword to attack once again. But when he saw the ashen-faced expressions of his fellow disciples. His movement came to a halt as the sense of foreboding danger filled his heart.

"What? Why are you guys looking at me like that..." He blurted out and a nearby disciple pointed at him with a shaky finger. Luo Yang immediately directed his gaze at his lower body and the sight that he saw grinded his mind, heart and soul to a halt.

Starting from his toes up to his knees, he found that his body was slowly melting into a pool of mud that closely resembled magma. Right when he noticed what was going on. He fiercely turned around, stared at his fellow disciples and howled in anguish: "B-b-b-b-brothers... S-s-s-s-save me..." He stuttered through his words.

"L-L-Luo Yang! Come here!" A male disciple that had close relations with Luo Yang screamed out loud and rushed towards him. Bringing a towel that he could use to suffocate the flame. Unfortunately, before he could reach Luo Yang. Dan manipulated the Chimera Flame and intensified the devouring process. Making it so that when he arrived near Luo Yang. Only Luo Yang's head would remain, frozen in an expression of despair and anguish.

"You..." When his brother disappeared into ashes. That disciple continuously trembled like a sieve. Lifting his head, he glared at Dan's direction and angrily howled: "How dare you kill my brother in such a humiliating way!" His cultivation base circulated to the maximum, fueled by his anger. He subconsciously surpassed his limit.

Dan dusted his shoulders and looked as carefree as ever. Despite revealing countless openings that any attackers could exploit to kill him. None of the disciples dared to move. Noticing this, Dan coldly snorted in disdain: "In the end, you bunch of bastards are still afraid of death. If I were you, I would've attacked at the moment that I tried to stand up."

The moment his voice rang, the disciples around him were astonished. 'W-W-Why is he lecturing us on how to kill him?' They thought but didn't dare to retort. After all, he could easily turn them into ashes with that strange flame of his.

"Also, you! Instead of standing there grieving for your brother's death. You should've took the opportunity and attacked me! If you did, there would be some certain chance of success!" He glared at the disciple that grieved for Luo Yang's death before fiercely sweeping his gaze at the disciples around him.

"Remember that deaths are often in the battlefield! Although I can understand that you're grief-stricken from your brother's death. It shouldn't bother you until the battle ends! If you started grieving amidst the battlefield, do you really think that you can muster all the strength that you have? How foolish! In the end, you bunch of disciples only know how to talk but can never display their arrogance through actions!"

Dan crossed his arms together and revealed an expression of utter disdain. The disciples around him simultaneously trembled in shock. Apart from shock, they also felt incomparably puzzled. Why in the actual heavens is he lecturing us on how to efficiently kill him?! Does he really want to die that much? If that's the case, he could've took his own life!

"What are you standing there in shock? Come and attack me! If you don't, I'll attack first!" Dan quickly rotated his daggers around his palms and held them in a reverse grip. After being scolded, the disciple that ran towards Luo Yang stiffened, sensing the coldness within Dan's eyes. He understood that he wasn't fooling around this time.

"Here, I go!" Dan stabbed out with both of his dagger. One dagger targeted his enemy's neck while the other dagger launched towards his enemy's potential escape route. The male disciple found in horror that if he had no other way to escape this predicament other than to counter-attack. He couldn't even dodge for he realized that if he did took a step back, Dan's other dagger would pierce through his nape.

Unsheathing his sword, a cold light flashed by and he under the sense of imminent danger that filled his body. He miraculously blocked Dan's first attack and evaded the one that followed. Turning his body to the side, he horizontally slashed at Dan's abdomen.

Facing this attack, Dan didn't even dodge. Instead, he rushed forwards, aiming to take his enemy's life and exchange it of his own. Stabbing at the male disciple's neck. The latter knew that if he continued his attack, he could severely injure or kill his enemy. However, as a consequence. Dan's attack would also land on his neck, and result on mutual destruction.

The male disciple's hesitation momentarily stopped his attack. But that short moment was enough for Dan to seal the deal. Cold dagger light swept by and the male disciple's eyes widened in shock as a blood arrow exploded from his neck.

"How naive... Consider that as a lesson, see you at the outside world..." Dan coldly snorted as the male disciple's body gradually disintegrated into light crystals.

In a battle between experts. Usually, those that possessed the stronger and firmer willpower and composure often turn out as the victors. If the male disciple didn't hesitate and continued on his attack, even though he would undoubtedly die. He would be able to inflict enough damage to Dan and greatly weaken him enough for his fellow disciples to finish the latter off.

Turning towards the other disciples. The blood that drenched his daggers and robe, along with his cold gaze that seemed to reel in their hearts and souls. Dan looked incomparably intimidating and terrifying. Some disciples that couldn't keep their willpower in check continuously trembled under his gaze that resembled that of an ancient beast.

Dan's gaze momentarily stopped at those disciples that didn't possess enough willpower according to his criteria before he opened his mouth to speak: "We're currently within a virtual world, yet why are you guys hesitating? It's not like you're gonna die in reality." He shook his head and continued, "If you're already like this in a virtual world, just how can you face your enemies in the future and become a powerhouse?"

"If that's the case, it would be better for me to dispose of you trashes, right now..." He suddenly crouched and leaped out, as soon as he appeared overhead. The astonished disciples found three Dan's holding similar daggers on their palms.

"Clones?!" A male disciple screamed out and revealed his weapon. Under the threat of death from Dan's clones, these disciples forcibly summoned their strength and escaped the Chimera Flame and Blessing of the Lightning God's combined Soul Suppression effects.

In an instant, dozens of resplendent lights filled the battlefield as the disciples started their fierce counter-attack at Dan's clones. There was even a female disciple that was known for her timidness. Under the threat of imminent danger, she suddenly howled like a wolf and unsheathed her soft sword that flew like a wolf and injured a clone.

The sight of the blood drenching her innocent-looking face was engraved on ther faces of her fellow disciples. From now on, none of them would dare to think of her as a pushover anymore. Her quality of living at the Core Disciples Region would definitely soar after this event.

Above a protruding rock was Dan who was in the middle of Stealth. Staring at the slaughterfest below him. A light smile lifted on his lips as he celebrated on the succession of his plan. Earlier, he deliberately said those words to provoke the inner arrogance of these disciples while showing them the consequences of acting so naive an indecisive within the battlefield.

He stared at the ceiling and lightly smiled, "These can be considered as a repayment for how much you have helped me these past months, Headmaster..."

Outside the barrier, when Mathias Paradyne saw that smile on Dan's face. He couldn't help but chuckle as he explained towards the dumbfounded Elders who wanted to know Dan's objective on purposely causing trouble.

"That young man really helped us this time. Our overprotectiveness to our disciples caused them to become lax and unable to face a true life and death battle. Earlier, Dan merely provoked their inner arrogance and their will to live. Converting it into confidence and decisiveness that could definitely save their lives in the future. Ultimately, it would also increase the Academy's strength."

After this explanation, the Elders finally understood what Mathias meant and they couldn't help but feel endlessly grateful to Dan for tempering their disciples' minds. Once these disciples came out of the virtual world, they would be akin to a wolf returning home from his first hunt.

Just as Dan returned his gaze at the disciples below him. An intense sense of imminent danger suddenly filled his heart as the sound of flesh being penetrated rang out. The female disciple who absolutely disliked him had mysteriously appeared right behind him and pierced his heart.

"You..." Dan blurted out as blood spilled from his throat into the ground.

"I finally caught you, you bastard! How dare you make someone like me suffer like that earlier! I'll make sure that you won't die yet!"

The female disciple howled in a voice that sounded similar to a Banshee. But before she could rejoice, she suddenly turned around and kicked, sending a figure flying towards the cave wall as the 'Dan' right in front of her dissipated into a cloud of smoke.

"You green tea bitch! You finally appeared. This time, I won't be holding back!" Dan wiped the blood that stained his lips. Within his eyes, ignited a fierce battle intent that sought nothing but slaughter.

"Blessing of the Lightning God, Chimera Flame!" Dan madly circulated his cultivation base and summoned everything that he had, facing the female disciple. Dan looked like a human torch that radiated off intense Lightning as Thunder continuously rumbled around his body.

"You took the words from my mouth!" The female disciple coldly replied and cold air suddenly manifested around her body, forming a gown made entirely of ice. When this gown appeared on her body. The temperature within the cave drastically dropped as the disciples fighting against Dan's clone stiffened and stared at the two in astonishment.

One was clad with Fire and Lightning. Looking like a fierce God of War, while the other looked majestic and ethereal, in this world of snow, she was the only queen and the rightful controller of this domain. Without exchanging any words, the two lifted up in the air and brandished their weapons at each other!
