When Shi Xiaobai entered the lobby, the six Zeus rookies and Yama Minamiya immediately surrounded him in a ferocious manner. He was slightly surprised as he asked, "What's the matter?"
Heartless was the first to angrily say, "Tu Dahei, what did you do to my sister?"
Shi Xiaobai took a few moments to realize that the sister Heartless was referring to was that azure-dressed girl.
Shi Xiaobai obviously could not mention the 'sword arts heritage', so after thinking for a moment, he answered, "This King had to make up for his mistake. This King had let down your sister, as This King had eaten her..."
"Shut up! Speak no further!"
Heartless boomed and interrupted Shi Xiaobai's words. His expression was livid, as though he wanted to devour Shi Xiaobai.
Shi Xiaobai was planning on saying "as This King had eaten her sword", but with Heartless cutting him off, he missed the last word. However, he did not realize that the omission of a single word was like a fatal blow to the seven people in front of him.
Shi Xiaobai frowned slightly. He was displeased with their attitudes as he said with a heavy voice, "It seems like you have a problem with This King. If you want to avenge yesterday's matter, This King welcomes you anytime. It's best if all six of you fight me."
The six rookies immediately took an angry step forward. Tu Dahei had done something that would have 'incurred the wrath of humans and gods', yet, was still so arrogant about it. He deserved death!
Shi Xiaobai's eyes lit up as he also took a step forward. "Come on, let's hurt each other!"
Yama Minamiya's expression changed slightly. Although he was vexed over Shi Xiaobai's two-timing act, he would definitely not watch the battle take place in front of him without doing a thing. He hurriedly came to Shi Xiaobai and waved his hand and said, "There must be a misunderstanding on this matter. Everyone calm down. Since the two of them have already...and it has to be mutual... Anyways, the most important thing is to ask for the full truth!"
Heartless angrily said, "What else is there to ask? My sister is obsessed with sword arts and she has a simple mind. It must be Tu Dahei that had deceived her!"
"Calm down first!"
Yama Minamiya sighed and turned to say to Shi Xiaobai, "Dahei, what happened in the past five hours. Make sure to explain well!"
Shi Xiaobai frowned slightly. He was unsure what these people were arguing about. Why did they say that he was deceiving Sunless. However, Yama Minamiya was Riko's father, so Shi Xiaobai felt that it was better for him to show him some respect.
He pondered for a moment. He could not say 'sword arts heritage'. As for the 'Kun Peng Sword Manual', it was also extremely mysterious, so it was best he did not mention it. As Shi Xiaobai considered his words, he finally said, "This King gave her something she wanted, while she gave This King a big pleasant surprise. This King accidentally got engrossed in it, and engaged in it for five hours over there."
Shi Xiaobai deliberately reached out his hand to point to the other end of the hallway. He wanted to explain that he had been sitting there for five hours, but Sunless's room happened to be in the line of sight in the direction he pointed.
Everyone was dumbfounded as Yama Minamiya stared with widened eyes.
Something she wanted?
A big pleasant surprise?
Accidentally got engrossed in it?
Engaged in it for five hours in Sunless's room!?
"Tu Dahei, I'll fight it out with you!"
"You swine, give me your life!"
"Dahei, how can you do this to my daughter!?"
"Tu Dahei, you are shameless!"
"..."
The seven immediately bellowed in anger as they stared furiously at Shi Xiaobai!
Shi Xiaobai's eyebrows twitched. He had a nagging feeling that a huge misunderstanding had happened, but he could not be bothered to explain. Scanning the crowd, other than Yama Minamiya appearing threatening to him, the others were nothing to him.
"It's been awhile since This King has cultivated This Turtle Is Hardest, besides...it's time to avenge the battle exchange!"
With this thought in mind, Shi Xiaobai gestured to the seven with his finger and said, "If you want to fight, fight on!"
How could Heartless and the five rookies tolerate this? Immediately, they charged at Shi Xiaobai like six fierce wolves!
Yama Minamiya’s expression changed, but after hesitating for a moment, he did not stop them.
Fuck, must you brag about the coquettish matter you did for five hours?
Yama Minamiya obviously could not personally teach Shi Xiaobai a lesson. It would be an act of bullying. If Kali knew about it, he would probably land in serious trouble.
He finally chose to silently stand by the side. He wanted to let Shi Xiaobai suffer some physical pain!
With this, the sudden battle of six against one began!

Chapter210 Combined assault on Tu Dahei
The six-person team led by Heartless spontaneously attacked Shi Xiaobai, but none of them used any weapons. Despite being enraged, they still managed to maintain their final bit of reason.
Shi Xiaobai immediately used Crab Steps to dodge to the side. The six people were not on the same level as Hua Pengju and company. With his current physical defense, it was very dangerous to resist the attacks from the six.
"Bastard, don't you try escaping!"
The self-proclaimed assassin, who was the burly youth that defeated Kevin, was the fastest. He was the first to come in front of Shi Xiaobai, and with a fist surging with psionic power, he punched furiously at Shi Xiaobai.
A glint flashed in Shi Xiaobai's eyes as his retreating footsteps came to a sudden halt. With a twist of his body, he used his shoulder to meet a fist.
"Peng!"
The sounds of bones striking one another resounded as the burly youth's fist hit Shi Xiaobai's right shoulder!
"Boom!"
Shi Xiaobai was immediately sent flying back, as he toppled a row of seats.
"What are all of you doing!?"
The commotion immediately alerted the hotel's front desk. A receptionist screamed, "Security, security! Hurry, there are people fighting here!"
Heartless' expression changed and he signaled with his eyes. A male rookie immediately understood his intentions and walked towards the reception and said, "It's a misunderstanding. It's all a misunderstanding."
The burly youth whose punch had hit its mark frowned slightly. He had been taken by surprise that his punch had managed to hit its target. After all, Tu Dahei was a person who had one-shot Heartless. Furthermore, he had the nagging feeling that Tu Dahei had been the one who sent his shoulder at him.
When the others saw the burly youth send Tu Dahei flying with a punch, they were delighted. The female whopper sustained the threat as she pounced at the fallen Shi Xiaobai.
"Mt. Tai Crush!"
Shi Xiaobai had just fallen to the ground and when he looked up, it was as though a mountain was crushing down at him. The mountain was none other than the massive figure of the female whopper. His expression instantly changed as he quickly weighed the pros and cons. At a speed which left no time for one to cover one's ears, he darted away from the ground.
"Boom!"
The massive body slammed to the ground, causing the splinters from the already broken chairs to fly into the air. Even the hard steel ground had cracked.
Shi Xiaobai drew a gasp. Thankfully, he had not tried resisting this strike in order to cultivate his 'This Turtle Is Hardest'. Ignoring the whopper's destructive power, if he were crushed by her massive body on the ground, he would probably experience a life worse than death.
"Hand your life over!"
At the moment Shi Xiaobai fell into a startled daze, a kick came flying at him.
Shi Xiaobai quickly reacted and raised his leg, and used his thigh to meet the kick that was aimed at his abdomen.
"Peng!"
/>
Shi Xiaobai was once again sent flying back. The person who had sent the flying kick was a good-looking adonis. With a successful strike, the adonis immediately charged again.
"Die!"
The adonis was abnormally furious as he raised his leg to stomp down at Shi Xiaobai's waist.
With a slight movement to his side, Shi Xiaobai used the side of his waist to meet the foot.
The adonis raised his foot once again, but with both hands on the ground, Shi Xiaobai did a back flip to dodge that strike.
At the same time, another figure appeared behind Shi Xiaobai. It was a short-haired youth.
"Pay the price for what you have done!"
The short-haired youth struck his palm towards Shi Xiaobai's back.
A glimmer flashed in Shi Xiaobai's eyes as he took a step back to withstand the palm strike.
"Peng!"
Shi Xiaobai's back was hit as he was sent flying forward.
"Die!"
A cold beam flashed in the adonis' eyes as he jumped up to send a kick towards Shi Xiaobai's crotch.
In mid-air, Shi Xiaobai struggled to turn sideways as he used his left leg to meet the kick. Immediately, his body was sent spinning a few times by the kick.
The female whopper appeared in front of Shi Xiaobai, and with her hands clasped together like a hammer before she slammed down on Shi Xiaobai's chest.
"Boom!"
Shi Xiaobai crashed to the ground, as the ground cracked outwards for several meters, like spider webs.
"Mt. Tai Crush!"
The whopper leaped at the fallen Shi Xiaobai once again.
Shi Xiaobai, who had suffered a serious blow moments ago, quickly dodged the whopper's slam.
At this moment, security personnel had arrived. It was unknown when the elderly God of Swords had appeared in the lobby to block the security, motioning for them to ignore the matter. As he looked at Shi Xiaobai, his eyes were filled with surprise.
Heartless, who had not struck out all this while, could not help but gape with his mouth wide open.
Yama Minamiya, who was by the side, was also somewhat dumbfounded.
From their view, Shi Xiaobai had managed to avoid injury at the critical moment each and every time. Furthermore, he would often take the initiative to receive the attacks of the four rookies. He was clearly being beaten, but it felt like he was playing the four rookies like a fiddle.
And what shocked them the most was Shi Xiaobai's ability to withstand their blows. Clearly, he did not use any psionic defensive skills and he was using only his body to withstand the damage, yet he did not show a trace of pain from the very beginning. His motions were smooth as though he was not affected by the pain inflicted on his body. It was as though he was a machine that did not know pain!
The four rookies who were still doing their best to attack Shi Xiaobai were unable to see as clearly as people from the outside. They had excited expressions, happy to vent the anger in their hearts.
They did not notice that while Shi Xiaobai was constantly receiving their attacks, his eyes were as bright as the stars.
The beatings continued on while the male rookie who had run to appease the reception counter had joined the battle. Soon, the hotel lobby was in a mess as a result of the ‘abuse’. The manager who came had a long face, but the manager and the security personnel could not do a thing when they realized that the elderly God of Swords was acquiescing the brutal violence.
There were more and more onlookers, each and every one of them were wondering the reason as to why no one was stopping the display of violence. Some even secretly took out their cellphones to take pictures.
The beatings continued for about ten minutes when the surrounding onlookers found something amiss. The five rookies were also somewhat startled.
Why did Tu Dahei still have the strength to dodge after receiving ten minutes of beatings?
Furthermore, they had felt Shi Xiaobai grab them on the arms and they had suddenly felt a strange feeling.
All of a sudden, the five rookies had drastic changes on their faces as they spontaneously stopped attacking.
When Heartless saw the situation unfold, his eyes flashed a cold beam. He had not joined the battle in the beginning because he was filled with dread of Tu Dahei. Later on, he did not join the battle because he found something amiss, but now, he could no longer refrain from joining the battle as...
White psionic power surged out of Heartless's five fingers as it coagulated and turned into a white psionic sword!
He had come to a realization that using punches and kicks against Tu Dahei was insufficient!
With the sword in hand, Heartless silently walked towards Shi Xiaobai. When Shi Xiaobai's back was completely facing him, he suddenly accelerated and came behind Shi Xiaobai. Rising his psionic sword, he slashed down at Shi Xiaobai's back!
He wanted this strike to leave a long scar on Shi Xiaobai's back!
This was the anger of an elder brother!
Yama Minamiya's expression changed drastically as a yellow psionic arrow shot out from his fingertip towards Heartless's psionic sword at an extremely fast speed.
The elderly God of Swords was about to make his move as well, but when he saw something, he came to an abrupt halt.
Suddenly, before Heartless's psionic sword slashed down, or before Yama Minamiya's psionic arrow arrived at its destination, an azure sword beam that came from afar shattered Heartless's psionic sword.
At the same time, five azure sword beams fell from the sky, opening up a rift in the ground in front of the other five rookies. It made them retreat in amazement.
Everyone turned their heads and they saw an azure-dressed girl standing at the intersection of the lobby and the hallway. With a silver sword in hand, her eyebrows were knitted together.

Chapter211 Shit, there's no way to stop!
As everyone turned their heads over, they saw that the person who had suddenly slashed out a formless sword beam to save Shi Xiaobai was the newly-arrived Sunless.
"Little Sun..."
Heartless' face changed slightly as he lowered his hand. It was extremely rare for him to see his sister frown. It was proof that she was in a terrible mood.
The five other rookies did not dare to continue attacking Shi Xiaobai, but their faces gradually turned red for an unknown reason, as though they were trying their best to hold something back.
Surrounded by a few people, Shi Xiaobai's clothes were tattered and torn, with dust covering his entire body. His exposed limbs were bruised, so other than his delicate face looking fine, it was as though he was injured all over.
When Sunless saw this, her frown deepened as she briskly walked over to Shi Xiaobai.
In her way was the adonis in whose eyes flashed a look of pain, but he immediately made way for her.
Sunless silently walked in front of Shi Xiaobai and suddenly reached out her fair hand to grab his right hand.
"Follow me." Sunless said softly as she held onto Shi Xiaobai’s hand and turned to walk back.
Shi Xiaobai was slightly taken aback, but he did not say a word. The ten minutes of assault had already satisfied his "This Turtle Is Hardest", and for a particular reason, he was just about to leave.
Shi Xiaobai allowed Sunless to hold onto him as he turned to look at the Zeus rookies, who were clenching their teeth. Slowly, he revealed a strange smile.
Was that look supposed to come from a person who had just experienced a 'brutal' combined assault?
Sunless and Shi Xiaobai quickly left the lobby as everyone exchanged looks.
The elderly God of Swords said with a wry smile, "I should have curbed my curiosity. Now, Little Sun is probably blaming me for 'helping the wicked perpetuate wicked deeds'."
Yama Minamiya said helplessly, "This isn't Senior's fault. This Junior could not resist it either. Unfortunately, I still could not deduce what had happened after watchin
g for ten minutes. I wonder if Senior managed to figure it out?"
The elderly God of Swords shook his head and said, "I can only guess a thing or two. That child's movement technique is very profound. He dodges nearly every attack that would deal him serious damage. And he would frequently take the initiative to receive the damage within a specific range. It seems like him being beaten gives him certain benefits, but as for what the benefits are, I was unable to tell. That child is truly strange."
Yama Minamiya nodded as well. He had also managed to figure those points out, and he too shared the same thoughts as the God of Swords on Shi Xiaobai's strangeness.
On the other side, Heartless and the other five rookies had extremely ugly facial expressions. The five rookies looked like they were enduring something as their foreheads were covered in sweat.
Heartless sighed and said, "Your onslaught of attacks might not have dealt any damage to Tu Dahei, instead, it might have also allowed a particular scheme of his to succeed."
The female whopper's fat quivered as though she was enduring something. She said with a growl, "We should not have held back. If we had used weapons, that bastard would have long been dead!"
The burly youth's body quivered as he smiled and said, "If we could kill him, would we be feeling so down? If we had been serious, Yama Minamiya and Senior God of Swords would definitely prevent it. Letting him suffer some physical pain in broad daylight is already quite good."
The adonis' face was purple, and his eyes were burning with fury as he said, "But does that bastard look like he has suffered any physical pain? There is no way I can take this lying down! Brother Ye, are we just going to forget this? We can't let that bastard near Miss Sunless again!"
Heartless' expression was slightly cold as he said, "In the future, we can only deal with Tu Dahei in secret. Little Sunless thinks highly of Tu Dahei. Have any of you seen her hold anyone's hand? That girl...she is a germaphobe!"
The expressions of the five rookies turned livid. The four male rookies naturally looked up to Sunless more or less. They had not had the chance to even speak to Sunless once. She was like a snow lotus high in the sky, only to be seen from afar, but impossible to approach. Even if they could approach her, they did not dare to have any other disrespectful thoughts.
