Meanwhile.

Compared to the bizarre scene trapped at the west gate, the battle situation in the direction of the east gate remained intense.

The deafening slaughter and roaring had never stopped.

This time, many students of Dongning Academy participating in the city defense battle for the first time truly witnessed the terror of the beast tide.

As well as the terrifying coercion from the Hell-level BOSS.

Old General Qin Yue and Old General Jiang Wei, along with Vice Dean Xia of Dongning Academy.

The three top powerhouses whose Level exceeded Level 70 joined forces, but were still suppressed tightly by that huge fierce tiger wreathed in gloomy aura all over.

On the city wall, the students responsible for long-range firepower support looked at the three figures in the distance that appeared extremely tiny in front of the colossal beast, and everyone's face carried thick worry.

"That Hell-level BOSS is way too strong, right? Even with General Qin and the other three joining forces, it seems they can't gain any advantage."

A bespectacled, gentle-looking boy had a hint of tremor in his voice.

A tall classmate beside him sighed, his face full of solemnity.

"It's more than just failing to gain an advantage. Didn't you see that General Qin and the others have already begun to fall to a disadvantage?"

"This is our first time witnessing the true strength of a Hell-level BOSS with our own eyes. It's simply a moving natural disaster!"

"Can we... can we really win?"

A female classmate asked softly, her voice filled with uncertainty.

Her companion sighed.

"It's probably tough. That's a Level 50 Hell-level BOSS. Unless stronger Classer come to reinforce us, otherwise..."

"Then it has to be quick!"

The boy who spoke first looked anxiously at the white-haired figure in the distance.

"Vice Dean Xia is so old. This intensity of combat consumes him way too much."

"I really worry... that something might happen to him."

As soon as these words came out, everyone's heart clenched.

Vice Dean Xia was highly respected in Dongning Academy and was a Senior admired by countless students.

He had already retired to enjoy his old age, but this time he resolutely returned to the battlefield to protect the city.

Just as everyone was whispering and morale was somewhat low,

a clear female voice suddenly rang out in the crowd.

"Stop gossiping and finish the tasks assigned to us by the military department!"

Everyone subconsciously looked sideways.

They discovered that the speaker turned out to be Ye Xi, the campus belle among Dongning Academy's freshman class this year.

At this moment, Ye Xi had cut off her long hair, leaving only a capable, shoulder-length short hair.

Compared to her previous gentleness, her eyes at this moment possessed a few more points of firmness and composure that did not belong to her age.

That pretty face without the slightest modification was still as transcendentally beautiful under the reflection of the battlefield fire.

Seeing that the speaker was Ye Xi,

several male students who were originally sighing immediately straightened their backs, their faces piled with attentive smiles.

"Classmate Ye Xi is right! We should concentrate and not get distracted!"

"That's right! Vice Dean Xia and the others are still fighting desperately in the front, we must not slack off even more!"

Watching their appearance of huge contrast before and after, a few girls silently rolled their eyes and cursed inwardly in their hearts.

"Simp."

Ye Xi did not care about the expressions of the people around her.

Her gaze was always tightly locked onto the battlefield below the city wall.

There, dozens of military soldiers formed a battle formation, fighting fiercely with a wave of exotic beasts impacting the defense barrier, and the battle situation was tragic.

Suddenly, her tall figure moved abruptly and actually jumped directly onto the battlement of the city wall!

This move suddenly startled all the students around.

"Classmate Ye Xi! What are you doing?"

A boy who had just been fawning over her changed his expression drastically and hurried forward to dissuade her.

"You... you aren't going to go under the city, are you?"

"The task given to us by the squad leader of the First Division is to be responsible for long-range firepower support on the city wall!"

"You mustn't do anything stupid, it's too dangerous down there!"

Standing atop the wall, the mountain wind blew her capable short hair, and her expression was calm.

"The health bars of quite a few soldiers below are very dangerous, and the healing types are already overwhelmed."

"I have healing-type skills, I can go help them."

She turned her head and glanced at those worried classmates.

"Guard this place well, you don't need to worry about me."

"I will protect myself well."

After saying that, she no longer paid attention to the exclamations and dissuasions coming from behind and leaped down!

That pale green figure, like a leaf falling in the wind, drifted down from the city wall hundreds of meters high!

At the moment just before landing, a circle of soft Holy Light lit up around her body.

The light supported her body, allowing her to land lightly on the ground.

She didn't even pause for a moment.

After landing, the staff in her hand lit up with brilliant radiance.

"Holy Light Spell!"

Warm pillars of light accurately fell onto those severely injured soldiers whose health bars were in critical danger.

The wounds on the soldiers' bodies healed rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, and their pale faces regained color.

"Many thanks!"

A one-armed soldier gave her a grateful look and roared again as he rushed into the beast herd.

Ye Xi did not stop.

While precisely casting Holy Light for every teammate in need of healing, she waved her staff, releasing bolts of Holy Light Shock.

Golden energy ripples spread out, instantly knocking away the few exotic beasts that approached her!

Her movements were smooth and flowing, with healing and attacking seamlessly connected.

For a moment, she was not at a disadvantage compared to those battle-hardened military soldiers!

On the city wall, those students of Dongning Academy looked at the graceful figure shuttling through the beast herd below, all so shocked they were speechless.

After a long while, someone let out a heartfelt exclamation.

"As expected of Classmate Ye Xi..."

"This strength is definitely the most outstanding student in our freshman class!"

"Yeah, too strong! The Grade A profession Holy Light Cantor truly lives up to its reputation!"

Someone nearby immediately echoed in agreement.

"She is pretty, strong, and so kind-hearted. No wonder there are so many Senior students in the academy crazily pursuing her."

"It's a pity she is an iceberg beauty and won't bother with anyone."

A well-informed girl lowered her voice and gossiped.

"You guys don't know, even our school's Student Union president, Senior Li Mochen from the junior year, wanted to invite her to dinner some time ago, but she flatly rejected him."

"What? Senior Li Mochen?"

As soon as these words came out, a chorus of gasps suddenly sounded around.

"That is Senior Li Mochen! The number one person on Dongning Academy's celebrity roll!"

"I heard his father is even a Major General in the military, with a terrifyingly deep background!"

"Exactly, how many Senior sisters and junior sisters cry and shout wanting to have a meal with him, and he can't even be bothered to care. Who would have thought he took the initiative to invite Ye Xi, only to be rejected..."

Everyone discussed animatedly, and their gazes looking at Ye Xi became even more filled with admiration and curiosity.

Just at this moment!

Boom—!!!

On the distant main battlefield, an earth-shattering roar suddenly came!

On the huge body of the Nether Tyrant Tiger that had been suppressed by the three powerhouses all along, the dark blue nether flames suddenly surged!

Its mountain-like body suddenly stood up on its hind legs, and its two huge tiger claws burning with nether flames actually merged into one, turning into a hundred-meter-long dark blue giant blade, slashing straight down at Vice Dean Xia in the sky!

This strike was fast to the extreme!

And overbearing to the extreme!

Under this single blade, space was torn apart with pitch-black cracks!

Vice Dean Xia's expression changed drastically, and the whisk in his hand instantly turned into a Tai Chi diagram, attempting to block it.

However, in front of absolute power, all defenses appeared so pale and powerless.

"Crack!"

The Tai Chi diagram lasted less than half a second before shattering to pieces!

Carrying the momentum of destroying heaven and earth, the dark blue giant blade fiercely slashed onto Vice Dean Xia's aged body!

"Puff—!"

A mouthful of blood spewed wildly out of Vice Dean Xia's mouth like a blood mist!

His aged body, like a kite with a broken string, plummeted rapidly from high altitude!

Boom!

On the ground, a terrifying giant crater with a diameter of over twenty meters was forcefully smashed out!

Vice Dean Xia lay at the bottom of the pit, covered in blood, with an unknown number of broken bones, long unrecognizable as human.

The whisk in his hand also broke into two halves, scattered nearby.

His aura was weak, and he was on his last breath.

"Vice Dean Xia!"
