I don't want to come up with a funny book title anymore.

"Hehe, no wonder they're Xie Shuai's sons. Judging from their appearance, even if the sky were to fall, they would choose to die a hearty death."

Xie Fengnan, upon hearing this: ?

After observing the pace of StarNet's actions, they unanimously agreed that since things had come to this point, they should eat first.

Anyway, we'll definitely have to wait for the family's notification before making any plans.

Xie Fengnan didn't care how to clarify himself, but his every move represented the face of the Xie family.

So I didn't rush into anything, but instead followed the normal schedule, ate my meal, and prepared to go to class.

We were eating when suddenly it got dark.

Judging from Feng Jian's words, there's no use in them being anxious. The enemy hasn't come to their door yet, so why can't they eat their fill first?

How can you have the strength to fight if you don't eat!

Furthermore, it's rather impolite of you to show our mukbang footage to others without our permission.

Xie Fengnan muttered to himself as he swallowed the last fried dumpling.

Chu Jiaoyang was enjoying his rice noodles today when this happened. With his bright red lips tingled from the spiciness, he asked Xie Fengnan, "So, someone came to the school to cause trouble?"

"Seems to be."

Those watching from outside the screen felt the tense and crisis-ridden atmosphere lessen when they heard their conversation.

"These two lads are really bold," Xie Zhiwu couldn't help but mutter, a smile unconsciously creeping onto his lips.

Feng Jian's face immediately darkened. He had intended to put pressure on Xie Liuguang and the others through this matter, but their reaction seemed to completely disregard him.

"Hmph, you're about to die and you still don't realize it. You'll pay a terrible price for this stupidity!"

With that, he waved his hand abruptly, and a large number of distorted figures, exuding an evil aura, instantly poured out from within the black barrier. They were no longer recognizable as human.

Seeing Feng Jian's actions, Xie Liuguang also prepared to make a move. His golden eyes shone brightly, one of the signs of his berserk state.

"Hehe, it's useless. Even if you were to break through this barrier, you wouldn't be able to." Feng Jian's voice was full of confidence, certain that even if Xie Liuguang made a move, he would fail.

He obtained this secret scroll from a strange ruin, which stated that it could only be activated by sacrificing a human life.

The stronger the person who makes the sacrifice, the stronger the barrier they create.

This barrier not only absorbed the life force of three ninth-tier powerhouses, but also the life force of a number of people whose exact number he was unsure of.

Those illusory figures are the result of the resentment of those who were absorbed.

The barrier will repel those at the seventh level and above. How will these students withstand these surging shadows?

Each of them possessed power in their lifetime; even piling them up could kill them.

As for why Feng Jian didn't directly kill them, it's because he was also one of the sacrifices.

However, because he was the one who activated this scroll, he was able to retain his consciousness. Once everyone inside the barrier is dead, he will cease to exist.

If you were to ask Feng Jian whether it was worth paying such a price just to kill the younger generation of the empire.

His answer was that it was worthwhile.

In contrast to the Empire's flourishing state, the Federation has been declining in recent years.

Leaving aside super geniuses like Xie Xinghe, even among second-rate geniuses, the Federation is inferior to the Empire.

Moreover, Xie Fengnan has now emerged as one of the twin stars alongside Xie Xinghe.

If things continue like this, the Federation will be annexed by the Empire sooner or later.

Feng Jian originally intended to wait until he had collected enough offerings before wiping out everyone at the First Military Academy.

But after learning that Xie Fengnan could contend with a seventh-tier opponent, he knew he couldn't wait any longer.

If we can't kill these two people, killing any more people is pointless.

The Xie family's ninth-rank members are different from others; it's no exaggeration to say that one person can be worth a million teachers.

Feng Jian was too uneasy to let them continue to grow, so he couldn't wait to launch this attack.

While sneering, Feng Jian switched the camera to show the other students being attacked by the shadowy figures.

In the video, some of them begin to organize a counterattack, while others stand there dumbfounded, unsure of what to do.

"Xie Liuguang, Xu Dingguo, Qi Guan, do you see this? This is the hope for your empire's future! They will all become lambs to the slaughter!"

He began to laugh wildly, making no attempt to hide his smugness.

Xu Dingguo had just launched an attack and was staring at the screen with a livid face.

What is this thing? I used all my strength and couldn't budge it an inch?

Would Xie Liuguang have a solution? His gaze involuntarily shifted to the other side.

Golden flames shone in Xie Liuguang's eyes, and his aura continued to rise, with powerful energy fluctuations spreading outwards from him.

He took a deep breath, channeled his supernatural power to its limit, and then threw a punch.

The fist whistled through the air, tearing it apart instantly and creating a series of sonic booms, as if even space itself was shaken.

A visible fist shadow, carrying immense energy, slammed heavily onto the black barrier.

In an instant, the entire imperial planet trembled.

The black barrier was shaking and vibrating violently, and under the expectant gaze of everyone, a small crack appeared on its surface.

"This...this is impossible!" Feng Jian's smug expression froze. Could it be that Xie Liuguang's strength had reached another level?

Otherwise, based on his previous estimation, even if Xie Liuguang came in person, it would be impossible for him to leave a trace on this barrier.

Damn genius, damn Xie family!

Feng Jian felt a surge of hatred; he absolutely could not let his plan fail at the last minute.

"All of you, charge! Kill them all!" Feng Jian had originally planned to torture these students slowly, but now he had to change his mind.

He doesn't know how long the barrier will last; he needs to get rid of the people inside as soon as possible.

"Someone is trying to rescue us from outside! Hang in there, everyone!"

The commotion was so great that everyone could feel it, and many people who had given up hope had their eyes rekindled.

However, the shadowy figure under Feng Jian's control was even more ruthless and insane than before.

The students' defenses crumbled faster than they had imagined, with piercing screams and desperate cries echoing across the screen.

Those watching from outside the barrier felt a pang of anxiety and anger.

"Where are Xie Fengnan and the others? Are they still eating? Aren't they coming out to help?"

One of the students who wasn't circled saw this and couldn't help but ask.

"You've seen it yourself before you speak."

While it would be great if an expert could come in and help, everyone else was too busy taking care of themselves.

As one of Feng Jian's deepest grudges, Xie Fengnan and his group were naturally dealt with severely.

Basically, all the high-level figures were gathered here; even fifth-level figures weren't considered. Xie Fengnan and Xie Xinghe were facing seventh-level figures directly.
