Chapter 42: He stumbled right after starting to cheat?

At this moment, Zhou Bo's heart was in his throat. He glanced at his junior brother Zhang Yuan and his junior sister Zhou without making a sound.

The three were positioned far apart, which was exactly the second scenario he had described earlier:

Once a battle breaks out, he will be responsible for blocking the enemy from the front, while his junior brothers and sisters will be responsible for flanking maneuvers.

At this moment, Zhou Bo was very uneasy, but he could not show it. He pretended to be calm and secretly observed Xu Lun's every move, not missing any detail. His attention and mental strength were in a state of high tension.

Similarly, junior brother Zhang Yuan and junior sister Zhou were also very nervous, staring intently at Xu Lun, afraid that he would suddenly burst out with a punch just like he had when he dealt with the monster.

Meanwhile, Old Wu, standing at the rear, saw the two sides silently confronting each other. Although they were not carrying weapons, the tense atmosphere had reached its peak, and even the surrounding air seemed to gradually freeze.

At this tense and oppressive moment, Xu Lun broke the silence and suddenly said:

"Hit me!"

Everyone was taken aback; they heard it, but didn't quite understand it.

"Hit me!"

Xu Lun repeated it again: Yes, he was asking the other party to hit him.

From the moment Zhou Bo and the other two landed, Xu Lun understood their positioning. He knew they had come prepared, and combined with his own performance just now, he was sure they would be wary.

Just then, he received a lot of information from the bracelet and was still processing it. He was also eager to know if the bracelet's specific functions were as he had guessed.

So he had only one request: let the other party hit him, and see if he could trigger the bracelet's defense mechanism again.

"Come on! Hit me!"

Xu Lun said.

Zhou Bo and the others on the other side were bewildered by his action.

The junior students were at a loss and all looked to Zhou Bo for help.

Zhou Bo looked embarrassed and gave a slightly awkward smile:

"Brother, have you misunderstood something?"

We are cultivators from Yundu Academy, and we have come here because of the beast infestation.

Now that you've taken action, the scourge has been eliminated, and I think we don't need to argue any further.

As I just mentioned, seeing your extraordinary skill, repelling that demonic beast with a single strike, I, Zhou, am truly humbled. If you wish to claim credit from the Heavenly Guards, then I will not disturb you any further.

He thought Xu Lun was afraid he would steal the credit, which was why he was acting so hostilely.

After saying that, he beckoned to his junior brother and sister, signaling them to come to his side.

However, Xu Lun, upon seeing this, became unwilling and said again:

"Why are you running? Come and hit me!"

He walked directly toward that junior sister Zhou.

This action instantly triggered a crisis response from his junior brother, Zhang Yuan. Before Zhou Bo could speak, he suddenly raised his hand, palm facing Xu Lun, and shouted loudly:

"stop!"

On the skin of his palm, a faint character quickly appeared, followed by a burst of lightning energy that shot out from his palm!

"Zhang Yuan?!"

Zhou Bo immediately sensed something was wrong, but it was too late.

Zhang Yuan struck out with his palm, and lightning shot out instantly, heading straight for Xu Lun!

Faced with the sudden lightning attack, Xu Lun was alert and raised his hand to block. The next second, the lightning struck his raised palm directly, and a powerful thunderous force instantly poured into his body and quickly spread throughout his entire body!

Bang!

Xu Lun's figure shot backward; this time, the bracelet didn't seem to have blocked the attack for him.

However, it wasn't over yet.

Before Xu Lun could land, a strong gust of wind suddenly swept through the air, instantly propelling him even further away—

Junior Sister Zhou unleashed a powerful palm strike with her palm facing forward!

In fact, she made her move at the same time as Zhang Yuan. After all, the enemy was coming towards her. As a cultivator, and not a weak woman without any weapons, how could she not retaliate immediately? Did she have to wait for the enemy to make the first move?

As a result, the reactions of the junior students happened to match the arrangements Zhou Bo had made when formulating the plan:

A palm strike of lightning and a powerful palm strike sent Xu Lun flying!

Xu Lun's figure flew backwards until he crashed into a tree and stopped, then fell down and slammed heavily onto the ground.

"Oh my god!"

At this moment, they are inside the transit station in universe 661.

Through the television screen, Bai Ye couldn't help but gasp in surprise.

That looks painful!

"This...this won't kill anyone, will it?"

Station Master Huang, who was in charge of Universe 661, pointed at the television, turned his head, and asked Bai Ye outside the bar.

He was only in charge of this transit station and did not have enough authority. He was unaware of the arrangements made by the Administration Bureau, so he was not very clear about Xu Lun's true identity.

"this..."

Bai Ye rested his chin on his hand, leaning against the bar, unsure how to explain the situation to the other person.

Although Xu Lun had mentioned before he went in that the Administration wanted to test the functionality and strength of the bracelet and hoped that Xu Lun would cooperate.

But he didn't expect that this kid would dare to play so recklessly, starting trouble as soon as he went in.

And he even used his own body to do the test; he's a truly ruthless person.

"If something really goes wrong... I won't be the one to take the blame, will I..."

Bai Ye thought of a certain possibility and suddenly became restless. He subconsciously picked up the glass of water on the bar, took a sip, and calmed himself down.

While drinking water, he secretly glanced at Han Xinwan next to him out of the corner of his eye, afraid that she would notice something.

However, Han Xinwan's attention remained focused on the television screen from beginning to end, and she completely ignored him and Station Chief Huang.

...

At the same time.

Outside Zulu Village.

Seeing Xu Lun, struck by both the palm lightning and the fierce palm wind, fall headfirst into the bushes in the distance, Zhou Bo didn't know whether it was a good thing or a bad thing.

He had tried to stop them, but his junior brothers and sisters acted instinctively and retaliated, which was understandable.

Moreover, Xu Lun seems a bit mentally unstable, constantly asking others to beat him up; it's unclear what his true intentions are.

"Senior brother!"

After knocking Xu Lun away, Zhang Yuan and Junior Sister Zhou quickly came to Zhou Bo's side.

Zhou Bo immediately raised his hand to signal: "That's enough, let's not talk about what just happened. Now is not the time, let's not be careless."

He looked warily toward the bushes.

He knew the level of his junior brothers and sisters, and besides, Palm Thunder and Gang Palm Wind were just the most basic moves, so their power was only so-so.

The monster that charged right in front of him was blocked by Xu Lun. How could his junior brothers and sisters defeat that person with just one move each?

Zhou Bo refused to believe it no matter what.

He looked warily at the bushes over there, and seeing their senior brother so vigilant, Zhang Yuan and Zhou Shimei also became wary and looked towards the forest at the same time.
