Dean Xiao heard the bet between the two department heads and shook his head helplessly. Then he spoke in a deep voice:
"Wang Feng and his companions are about to enter the ambush point. Activate the Si Ye Domination Array immediately."
The instructors immediately understood his intention.
If a thousand mid-level mages targeted a single person without restraint, even a commander-level demon could be killed on the spot.
"Huh?"
Wang Feng's expression changed. He raised his head, looking at the dark night that suddenly appeared overhead.
The night was like a thick curtain, completely blotting out the starlight. Darkness enveloped everything.
"It's the Si Ye Rule Formation. The school probably arranged it to avoid heavy casualties and suppress our magic," Mu Nujiao explained.
Wang Feng carefully sensed it. The Si Ye Domination Array significantly suppressed elemental and dimensional magic, reducing both casting speed and power.
But Wang Feng was a high-level mage with abundant talent.
The natural talents he had copied were enough to compensate for the suppression.
Most of the thousand mid-level mages were newly advanced and couldn't even cast mid-level magic skillfully. Under the Si Ye domination, their magic became clumsy. They were little more than cheerleaders, waving flags and shouting.
"Brother Wang Feng, there seems to be an ambush here?" Ye Xinxia's eyes revealed vigilance.
"Don't worry. Leave it to me." Wang Feng chuckled.
Mu Nujiao, Ai Tutu, and Ye Xinxia immediately understood what he meant: Lie down, don't give up, and you will win.
After another two hundred meters, Wang Feng's group reached halfway up the mountain.
He suddenly stopped, looked around, and a faint smile appeared on his lips.
"You have the courage to unite, but why not the courage to act? Haven't I already entered your encirclement?"
His voice was not loud, but it echoed across the mountain path.
Suddenly, commotion erupted in the dark woods on both sides.
"Could he have discovered us long ago?" someone whispered uneasily.
"No way! If he had, why would he fall into our trap?" another asked in confusion.
"You're so arrogant! You defeated thousands of beginner mages at the welcome party, and now you look down on us mid-level mages?" someone said indignantly.
The ambushers no longer hid. They emerged from the darkness—jungles, trees, rocks, and even the ground itself. They surrounded Wang Feng and the shadow monster in tight formations: three circles inside, three circles outside.
"There are… so many people." Ai Tutu shrank her neck nervously.
Mu Nujiao and Ye Xinxia were also alert.
Being targeted by the entire Qing Campus, Wang Feng was probably the only person in Mingzhu Academy history to face this.
"Wang Feng, you've angered the public! Don't blame us for uniting against you, the big devil!" Li Hongxuan shouted from a huge rock, pride in his tone.
"Who are you?" Wang Feng asked casually.
Li Hongxuan's face darkened. "You're so arrogant! Damn it! Tutu, come here quickly, or I'll accidentally hurt you!"
"Yes, yes! Goddess of Shepherd, come here!" someone echoed from the crowd.
"Goddess Ye, come here! Don't follow the big devil, or you'll get hurt!" another shouted.
Wang Feng's face darkened. What is this? NTR in person?
Originally, he intended only to trick these defeated generals.
But now… Uncle could tolerate it, but aunt could not!
Wang Feng's eyes sharpened. His mental power surged like a tide. Combining it with his talent [Water Disaster], he drew all the water from a nearby mountain river.
"Turbulent Waves—Flood Scroll!"
The mountain water formed a huge flood, rushing down like a roaring dragon, destroying everything in its path.
Trees were uprooted, rocks tumbled, and the air itself roared under the pressure.
"Damn it! There's a traitor among us!" someone shouted in horror.
"Shuiyuan, you have no morals!" another accused.
"Bullshit! Who in the era of Si Ye could create such a storm?" the Water Court students retorted.
"Help!"
"This water… how can it… dissolve clothes?! Poison Academy, you poisoned me!" someone screamed.
"I didn't… Gurgle gurgle." An intermediate poison academy student was swept away instantly, swallowed by the flood.
Mu Nujiao froze. She hurriedly began drawing a plant star map to block the flood, but the water suddenly split hundreds of meters away, flowing harmlessly on either side of them.
"This… did you do this?" Mu Nujiao widened her eyes in disbelief.
"Who knows?" Wang Feng smiled, giving no further explanation.
On another hill:
"Oh my god! Who caused this flash flood?! We're doomed!" Wei Rong's face turned pale.
He had assumed that a thousand mid-level mages against one would be advantageous, but now half the department's resources were at risk.
"Hehe, Lao Wei, thanks for your resources!" Jiang Yunming grinned proudly.
"Something's off… can this level of flood be triggered in the Si Ye ruling formation?" Dean Fu frowned.
"If it weren't for the Si Ye suppression, the power would be several times stronger… It's like the Catastrophic Water Roar," Professor Shi nodded seriously.
"Don't speculate blindly. Someone must have diverted the mountain's water, and the terrain caused this flash flood," Dean Xiao said calmly, eyes still on Wang Feng, a meaningful glint flashing.
Soon, the flood passed. The mountain path was bare, covered with mud and gravel. Only the area several meters around Wang Feng remained untouched, strikingly abrupt.
"Let's go, put the shadow monster into the iron cage. This test is over."
