"No need...... We lost this competition, and our predecessors were really strong." Sensei Valvari, who judged that there was no possibility of "winning without showing an attitude of deathmatch" on his side, smiled bitterly and admitted the defeat on his side.

In fact, the reason why Eco won so easily, of course, was because the teachers of the Luoyin Academy did not win very high, and this was just a sparring battle, not a battle to the death.

On the other hand, Eco, who is a party with a higher level of cultivation, has taken a very serious attitude to deal with the battle, because she doesn't want to lose, she wants to protect Benjamin, the bandit leader, and his cottage....... When there is some gap in the strength of the personnel of the two sides, their attitude naturally determines the outcome of the competition.

"Okay, then, now listen to me quietly." Eco nodded and said, "The owner of this cottage is my friend, and although I can't reveal his specific identity, what I can tell you is that his true identity is also destined for him not to be a bandit leader who only knows evil." After a pause, Eco continued, "I've set a constraint on him, and that's to make him think of his own way, to be more self-reliant, and to kidnap civilians less, so you don't have to worry that they will intensify their plundering of civilians."

"...... My reputation is a vouch." After saying the above words, Eco paused slightly, and then said this sentence calmly, "Although you do not know my name until now, although I have no intention of telling you my name...... But I want you to believe me."

Although to be honest, the hearts of the classroom are somewhat unhappy, after all, they killed it so aggressively but were blocked by someone else or something...... This kind of thing is basically "dedicating" one's own defeat to add another piece of glory to the glorious history of others, and basically not many people are willing to do it, right? But in this case, there is no other way.

So, after thinking a little and discussing for a while, Mr. Varvari finally said, "Well, we are naturally willing to trust our predecessors.

"Walk slowly, don't send." Eco's seniors put on a full stand (the teacher's perspective), but the tone was very peaceful, so the teachers' expressions were finally normal.

When the group of people from the Academy of Falling Sound left here, Eco (the appearance of an old man) waved his hand to signal that the bandits who were cheering for victory and wanted to gather around to boo the people of the Academy stopped their steps, and said coldly, "This friend who has been watching our battle, why don't you come out and get together for a while?" Eco's words surprised the bandits very much at this time, it was daylight, and this place was not a woods and other environment with enough hiding places, to be precise, the view around here was almost open, except for a few lonely dead trees, there was no place to hide themselves.

However, when there was no one around, and making sure that there was no trace of a figure around the dead trees, Eco said that there was a master here, hiding his figure.

"My friend is so observant, I'm going to come out here." The hidden stranger received the slightest deviation from Echo's gaze, looking straight at the location of the coordinates of his "hiding place", and knew in his heart that the other party had discovered him, and he had no choice but to appear from the hiding place.

So, in the eyes of the thieves, a seemingly obvious ripple suddenly appeared in the space in front of him, and after a short period of movement, these ripples dissipated, and out of it came a thin man who was not tall.

"The number of strong people in the Luoyin Academy is the largest of all the forces in the world, so the Luoyin Academy has never been short of people...... No matter what level of people you are, so the Rakuyin Academy, which adheres to the principle that 'unity is strength', will not just let members with insufficient strength enter this world full of dangers...... Isn't it?" Ike said quietly: "So, even if this group has more than ten or twenty top masters in charge, it is not enough to solve a crisis, so there will definitely be a stronger cultivator who will act with their actions and will secretly protect them You are the strong one responsible for protecting them, right?"

"That's right, this is the best and worst part of our Luoyin Academy, if you can sum it up in two words," the middle-aged man said.

"Short." Two voices rang out at the same time, one of them was a cold voice from Eco, and the second was a slightly proud voice from a man.

"So, since you didn't leave here immediately with them...... Do you have any advice for someone?" Although Echo's voice did not fluctuate, it was still cold, but the words that came out were already tense, and the atmosphere became quite tense for a while.

To be honest, this retired teacher of the Luoyin Academy named Teddy, who was pulled out of Eco's hiding place, originally had such thoughts, but when his figure hidden in his "dimensional space" was discovered, he didn't know about Ike's true ability, so he didn't want to fight Eco God knows. How did this guy find out, is there any ability to restrain himself?

So, he didn't want to fight with Eco in his heart, so he smiled dryly and said a few words, and then left.But in his heart, he made up his mind to go to the Star Palace to check the identity information of this unknown seventh-order master.

However, it's a pity that Teddy's plan in his heart must be in vain, because Eco didn't leave his own information in the Star Palace at all, and this appearance is just used as a cover, although it is indeed very stylish in terms of appearance alone, but it is also to make himself look more like a "real person".

So, after making sure that even this more powerful master was driven away by Eco, the bandits began to cheer, and invited Eco to come up as a guest, they were not stupid, judging from the battle just now, how could they understand that the other party was not someone on their own side could fight.Unfortunately, Eco politely declined their invitation, and then flew away.Before leaving, Eco's last words were "You also saw it just now...... Let's be a little more restrained, I don't have a lot of time."

After saying this, Eco disappeared into the sky in the blink of an eye, leaving only a group of big-eyed bandits and coarse people in place.

Dividing line

Since several of the teachers had been injured in the battle with Eco, the teachers had no choice but to stop their progress and stay in the original city and hotel for two or three days to recuperate their injuries.

And three days later, in the early morning, the teachers and students of the Luoyin Academy finally set off again, heading towards the destination that was not very far ahead, the Elven Forest.

On the way to this, there were no other accidents, and the road was so calm that some active and warlike children only felt itchy in their hearts.

"Ah...... If anything, this is probably the calmest trip for us, right? I haven't even drawn a sword since we set out." One of the boys in the elite of the student union, the fifth-order warrior Di Yuer, sighed, "Thinking of the previous trials and the trials of the student union, there are several battles that require three hundred rounds of battle to get a result, but now, we haven't even pulled out our swords, I really doubt that we will rust if we continue like this......"

Of course, this evil must be difficult to talk to the teachers, so he just whispered to his peers.

However, maybe the heavens heard him and the students who had the same thoughts as him, right? Anyway, after walking for another day or two, the teachers and students of Luoyin Academy arrived...... A grassland, a ...... A savannah full of sturdy centaurs.

"......"

"......"

"...... Mr. Valvari, you can't be led the wrong way, are you?" Looking at the leader of the way, Mr. Valvari asked with a stunned and embarrassed look on his face, as the student council president.
