"Your Highness, are you alright?"Chen Zi Quan waved his hand and wiped his blood on his mouth. That force from the boar forced him to the back as he forcefully stopped it.
"I"m alright. We"ll have to cooperate better if we want to kill the boar," He looked towards Lu Wan. "Don"t just attack blindly and aim for the weak spot."
"Where"s the weak spot of this large boar?" Lu Wan frowned.
"The neck at the back is relatively weaker compared to other part of his body," Mu Xin was the one to reply. She had learned of the beast"s stature when they were in the school, so she could mention them perfectly.
"… How do you aim for something up above like that?"
"That"s why we need to cooperate," Chen Zi Quan said once again. "Wild boar have relatively weak vision, that"s why it destroys a lot of trees along its way. However, it has extremely keen smell and quite stupid."
Lu Wan listened to the second prince"s explanation as he frowned. He had to admit that this prince has much better knowledge compared to him. If it was him, he would just force his way forward and attacked with his poison without caring for the beast"s characteristic nor weakness.
Wei Cheng readied his sword. "We"re going to distract it. Wei Yin, you"re the lighter ones among us, so you"ll be the one to deal the fatal blow."
"Do you mean, jumping up and try to attack from above?" Mu Xin interjected.
"Yes."
"Why is it not His Highness?" Lu Wan asked.
Chen Zi Quan rolled his eyes in displeasure. "I have to hold the front or do you think anyone of you is capable enough to stop the beast from moving forward?"
"…" facing rank 2 beast when they were still in rank 1 would be courting death. Neither one of them wanted that because of their relatively weaker physique.
"Good then," Chen Zi Quan coated himself with Eon Energy as he locked his gaze to the boar. The boar was already restless and about to charge forward once again. "Time to attack!"
All of them hurriedly stepped forward and used their sword to attack the boar"s neck. Even though it was still hard, this time they used a completely different method. Their sword and blade pierced straight to the boar.
Stab!
"It can"t go any deeper!" Wei Cheng yelled as he pulled his sword back and rolled to the side. The boar was raging because of the sudden pain.
"Use greater force!" Mu Xin also replied as she slashed her sword to the boar. The result was still the same as it merely scratched the surface.
Slas.h.!.+ Stab!
Ye Jiao watched their fight while keeping herself hidden. She knew that boar relatively has higher defense compared to other beasts. With the boar at rank 2, it would have higher defense because it was known that rank 2 would increase their defensive ability.
Bam!
Chen Zi Quan blocked the sudden charge with his sword once again. Despite being coated in Eon Energy layer around his body, he could feel his organs clamoring inside his body. They were shaken deeply by the attack this boar gave.
At the same time, the other students started to move and attacked the boar rapidly on the side. Wei Yin took the chance to jump up the boar"s body and used her sword to stab straight at the boar"s neck.
STAB!
The sword went in without any resistance as the boar cried in anguish. It shook his body so hard and flung Wei Yin away from its back.
*Cries*
"Wei Yin!" Wei Cheng yelled his sister"s name as the prince"s guard hurriedly headed to the girl"s direction and caught her. Because of the momentum, the two of them fell down on the ground.
*Growl*
The boar growled loudly and charged forward once again. The sword on his back nape didn"t stop him from his aggressive movements. This time, he charged straight to Wei Cheng"s direction. In panic, Wei Cheng raised his sword horizontally and blocked the attack.
Bam!
*Cough*
Wei Cheng flew to the back and vomited blood on the spot at the impact. Blood flowed from many places around his body because of the crash.
Slas.h.!.+
Lu Wan took the boar"s attention away as he attacked the boar"s back. His expression was grim because he realized how much of a disadvantage they had compared to this boar. Fighting against rank 2 beast was much harder compared with Eon Energy Master rank 2.
Before the boar could turn around to attack Lu Wan, Chen Zi Quan also stepped forward to attack from the side.
Slas.h.!.+
Their attack stopped the boar momentarily on his attack and this time, Mu Xin was the one to jump up on the boar"s body. Her legs quickly brought her to the boar"s neck and she stabbed her sword right beside Wei Yin"s sword.
Stab!
The boar cried again at the pain as Wei Yin pulled her sword. Her footing was not stable, but her eyes were determined to not fall before she killed the boar. Ignoring the blood that flowed out from the spot where she stabbed her sword, Mu Xin stabbed her sword once more on the side.
The other two tried their best to stop the boar"s movement, but Mu Xin"s attack made it enraged once more. Using the last bit of his strength, the boar shook his body rapidly, throwing Mu Xin away from his back.
"Xin Jie!" Ye Jiao realized that Mu Xin came to her direction. She stepped out of her hiding place and let herself stand on her sister"s fall"s path.
Cras.h.!.+
The two of them crashed against one another with Ye Jiao at the bottom. The collision hurt both of them as they stumbled on the ground, but it was better than letting Mu Xin crash on the hard ground.
Chen Zi Quan and Lu Wan used their sword to attack the boar once again. As the boar had lost too much blood, the last attack from the two boys stopped it completely. It lost the strength and fell on the ground with a loud thud.
Bam!
*Pant* *pant*
"Has it finished?" Lu Wan asked with rough breath.
"I think so," Chen Zi Quan stood in his place as he looked at the boar"s corpse. It was truly a long fight.
