368 ENEMY IN THE OUTER AREA-The group on his back was not at all ready for this move. They presumed that Li meng would give up on any kind of resistance, and hence let their guard down. Li Meng grabbed the weakest member of the group and used both of his hands to snap his neck. He then proceeded to use his body cultivation to rip the practitioner’s body apart.
Two pieces, one head and the other the dismembered body fell on the floor, blood sprouting out of it like a fountain. The leader along with the rest of the group members took a step back involuntarily. They never expected this level of savageness from LI meng.
“prepare your formation. Get into an attack stance.” The leader ordered.
“I will say this one more time. Give up any kind of resistance.” The leader immediately took his weapon out and took an offensive stance. The six men beside the recently deceased began to retreat in a different direction, trying to make space.
Li Meng didn’t care about the captain’s warning. There was a tactical problem with missions like this. You are not allowed to eliminate the target unless a talk has completely failed. Which meant that the captain could even attack Li meng seriously. Li Meng, on the other hand, was free to do whatever he wanted.
He rushed towards the two which went to the left of him. A sword appeared in his hand as he swung it at one of them. The other party managed to deflect it, while the one beside him tried to assist. Li Meng raised his other hand carryi8ng a short sword to resist the attack and was pushed towards the first party. He immediately used the counterforce to propel himself faster and deal a lethal blow to the man.
Once again a body split into two and fell to the ground. Li Meng didn’t wait. The other guy who had tried to assist got scared after seeing his partner dying which led to a momentary distraction. When he turned to look back, Li meng’s face was right in front of him as a brutal force stabbed the short dagger into his heart.
The man spouted blood out of his mouth and fell to the floor. The captain could no longer hold down after losing 3 men simultaneously in a situation where they had an absolute advantage in numbers. He immediately ordered hi smen to move forward and surround Li Meng.
“Change the formation and surround the target on all sides. All arms are to be kept straight up and no unnecessary movements are allowed. The men immediately tried to follow the order, but Li Meng used dash along with wind element energy to rush towards another guy. This guy was also an advanced Qi King of 7th level and was killed in mere seconds.
.....
Hunting those of a lower realm than his was like a joke to Li Meng. He hadn’t even found a proper match in the same cultivation realm as his or even higher sometimes, much less low. Within the next few movements, Li Meng kept on using a dash, flowing water, and wind element energy to kill the weak links of the group.
Soon enough no level 7 Qi Kings were remaining anymore. All that remained were level 8 and higher. Contrary to general belief, their formation and coordination became even better when the number was reduced, and finding an independent target was becoming a hassle. The team leader was the forward flag of the group, which kept Li Meng busy, while the other people attacked through the surrounding area.
“I guess I will have to use Fist of thunder” Li Meng was pumping the full power of his body cultivation from the beginning. It was helping him have such an efficient Qi expenditure. While others might think that Li Meng is sure to have expended a lot of Qi, only he knew the truth.
He immediately used the art of Taoism to rotate the captain’s attack sideways while using the counterforce on his own body to push him along with the attack. This helped him get near the group which was on the left, and he immediately used his Strikes of thunder move. The man who was hit by it immediately blasted while providing LI meng’s body a push in the opposite direction.
LI Meng used this opportunity to swing his sword heavily, while the dagger vanished from his left hand and a long spear appeared. The attack was received by the captain himself, who found it incredibly difficult to return and was being pushed back. Li Meng used the support from the leader’s defense to get a sudden bend in his body.
This gave him enough curvature to throw the spear with incredible force and the man in the path of the spear was penetrated right in the head through his eyes. The group stared at Li Meng with disbelief. They had absolute supremacy when the match started and yet, their numbers were constantly decreasing, two at a time.
“Don’t lose focus of the enemy.” The leader shouted.
“too late.” Li Meng appeared right behind him and used the Fiery sword strike with fire and thunder laws. Two more bodies joined the deceased in hell.
To the leader’s shock and dismay, Li Meng wasn’t getting slower after so many attacks. His pace was getting faster by the second. In the next few moments, the dagger reappeared, then a saber appeared, then the sword completely vanished and was replaced with a hammer.
Bodies continued to pile up, while the leader maintained his position on the frontline.
“Maintain your position and move forward towards the enemy.” The leader shouted without looking behind.
“Who are you talking to?” Li Meng asked. The leader’s expression changed as he looked behind him, just to find all his team members dead. He immediately calmed himself down and looked at Li Meng again, but he was nowhere to be seen. In the next moment, a painful sensation appeared in his torso and when he looked toward it, a dagger was inserted deeply into his body.
Another kick made contact with his face as his injured body was blasted towards a huge tree nearby. His body caved into the tree and he stayed immobile.
“Do you know the reason behind your loss?” Li Meng asked the leader.
No reply came and Li Meng decided to continue.
“It wasn’t your strategy or the skill level of your group members when compared to me. It was the very thing that gave you an advantage. The huge number of members provided you with an unnecessary amount of confidence which led to you and your group member underestimating the threat this situation posed.”
“I am a triple Heavenly law user, while your group is earthen law users, not considering yourself. Show some damn respect man.” He moved forward to raise the leader’s head, just to find him murmuring something.
“Still obedient to your master’s orders. I would love to have a subordinate like you. You have the necessary skills and talent. Too bad, I need to send a statement. I would have thought otherwise if the message hadn’t been sent, but you need to die now. Since Thunder Child is aware of my strength, he should be made to pay the price of his ignorance.”
Li Meng picked the leader’s sword which was lying on the ground. He then raised it to eye level with the tip pointing at the keeper’s eyes. He then raised his other hand and gave an incredible push to the back handle. The sword tip immediately penetrated through the eyeball to the other end of the brain.
The leader had been eliminated.

“What did we just see?” Ren Wang asked in amazement.
“Those attacks weren’t even a messy set of moves. They were like a beautiful picture of art. Just who did he train under to gain such high skills? Our junior brother is so full of secrets.” Ren Wang was forced into silence while Ren Dao couldn’t stop talking.
“We should report the incident to master.”Ren Wang said.
“I am sure that he is already aware of it.”Ren Dao interjected.
“How so.” Ren Wang asked.
“We have already entered the outskirts region of the academy. The master is sure to keep an eye on our brother. No need to worry about his safety anymore, but we should be prepared for all conditions. Let’s hope there are no more hurdles mid-way.”
......................
“Thunder Academy-
“What?” Thunder Child forcefully got up from his meditative position.
“What happened?”
“Li Meng eliminated the entire shadow team single-handedly. 30 advance QI Kings with most of them being at level 9 and the leader is at the very peak, were killed by him.”
“The threat is greater than we expected. He managed to raise his strength so much in just half a year. The old man planned quite well for this occasion. He managed to grow his secret weapon within half a year.” Thunder Child’s master spoke.
