When the hodgepodge world of anime meets the shadow king

"clang!"

In an instant, Liu Zhikang rushed to Huo Zoubing like lightning.

He drew out the two swords from his waist, clenched his hands, and crossed them in front of him, accurately blocking Yegrit's powerful attack.

The sound of metal colliding was particularly harsh in this relatively quiet space, as if it was the prelude to a storm.

"Captain, Captain..." Huo Zuobing suddenly woke up from his dream and stared blankly at Liu Zhikang who was standing in front of him. His already sickly pale face was now completely bloodless, like a blank sheet of paper. His eyes were full of fear and disbelief, his lips trembled slightly, but he could not utter any other words for a while.

"Crack...Crack!"

The two swords in Liu Zhikang's hands were tightly pressed against Yegrit's sword, rubbing against each other violently, splashing sparks.

He exerted force suddenly, and forced Yegrit back a few steps, but he also felt a dull pain in the base of his palm.

"President Kitahara, this is a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding!" The old man was so anxious that he was sweating profusely. He wiped the sweat beads as big as beans from his forehead and explained in a panic. His voice was trembling a little, and his wrinkled face was full of anxiety and helplessness.

"Misunderstanding?" Kitahara Xiao raised his eyes slightly and looked at the old man coldly. His eyes were like icy ice, which made people feel chilled to the bone. "You said you wanted to join the association, but who are you showing such a bad face to?"

As soon as he finished speaking, many shadow soldiers slowly appeared from the shadows around him. They moved in unison and soon surrounded everyone.

The black armor shone coldly in the dim light, and the weapons in their hands were all pointed at the people in the middle, as if a bloody fight would begin at the command.

Looking at the shadow soldiers around him who were on high alert, B (the strong man) subconsciously clenched his fists, his muscles tensed, veins bulged on his forehead, revealing a nervous atmosphere.

C (the man wearing a hood) couldn't help swallowing, his eyes hidden under the hood scanned the surroundings vigilantly, his body slightly bent, ready to deal with danger at any time.

"Who do you think you are? If I wasn't humble, how could you have the qualifications to talk to me?"

Just a few B-rank ones, rare but nothing special, not worth Kitahara Akira's attention

Following Kitahara Xiao's angry roar, a powerful pressure instantly surged out like a surging tide, sweeping in all directions.

Everyone at the scene felt as if an invisible mountain was pressing down on them. They all froze in place, unable to move.

Even Liu Zhikang, who is also an A-level warrior, couldn't help but feel a tremendous pressure coming at this moment, and his breathing became rapid and heavy.

Kitahara Xiao seemed to be completely unaware of the depressing atmosphere. He walked straight towards Huo Zoubing with steady steps, his eyes filled with cold murderous intent. He did not care at all about Liu Zhikang who was standing in front of him, as if in his eyes, Liu Zhikang did not exist at all.

"Get out of the way." Kitahara Xiao looked into Liu Zhikang's eyes, his tone light but revealing unquestionable majesty. His eyes were like two sharp knives, piercing straight into Liu Zhikang's heart.

Liu Zhikang looked at Beiyuan Xiao, who had obviously developed murderous intentions, and couldn't help but hesitate.

When he was the captain of the hunting team, he could use his body to block all dangers for his teammates without hesitation. At that time, protecting his teammates was the only belief in his heart. No matter how strong the enemy was, he never backed down.

But now, the situation is completely different. His identity has become a seven-star operator of the Dragon Team.

The superiors had already issued clear instructions, asking people to be on good terms with Kitahara Akira, or at least not to cause resentment on the other side.

If I give way now, Huo Zoubing will probably be in danger. That's a living life, and it's a teammate I once fought side by side with.

But if he didn't get out of the way, it would be a violation of the order from above, and he didn't have the confidence to stop Kitahara Xiao...

Liu Zhikang felt as if he was trapped in a dilemma, with beads of sweat rolling down his forehead.

Kitahara Xiao's face was stern, and a long sword had already condensed in his hand. The sword was flashing with cold light, revealing a hint of cold murderous intent.

Seeing that Liu Zhikang was still standing there and didn't move to move away, Beiyuan Xiao frowned, swung his arm violently, and prepared to chop forward fiercely.

"Please wait!" At this critical moment, the old man pushed his wheelchair and hurriedly stood in front of them.

Kitahara Akira's blade was so dangerous that it almost hit the old man's head. The cold edge seemed to condense the surrounding air.

"President Kitahara!" the old man shouted at the top of his lungs, his voice full of anxiety and sincerity, "I once again sincerely apologize for my rudeness in taking the risk!"

As he spoke, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead and rolled down his wrinkled cheeks.

After a pause, he quickly shouted: "To show our apology, I would like to give you something that you will definitely be interested in!"

Kitahara Xiao's originally cold eyes slightly raised, a hint of curiosity flashed in his narrow eyes, and his tone was a bit inquisitive: "What is it?"

The old man quickly took out a tablet-like object from his arms and slid his fingers across it quickly, as if he was looking for an extremely precious treasure.

"That's it!" The old man's face was full of excitement, and he immediately presented the dazzling data on the tablet to Kitahara Xiao, "The remaining data before the gap between the other world and our world disappeared!"

Kitahara Xiao took the tablet and scanned it. He found that he couldn't understand it at all and sent it directly to Huifeng.

As for the authenticity? Even if you give him a hundred guts, he wouldn't dare to lie to Kitahara Akira.

Seeing that Kitahara Xiao's aura was no longer as violent as before after he received it, the old man silently breathed a sigh of relief.

Kitahara Xiao waved his hand casually, signaling Yegrit and the shadow soldiers to retreat.

He raised his head slightly, and looked coldly at Huo Zoubing who was not far away with undisguised contempt.

"You are too ambitious and overestimating your own capabilities. Cherish this chance to survive. You may not be so lucky next time."

"Without your teammates, you are nothing"

Huo Zoubing looked at the two people standing in front of him and listened to Bei Yuanxiao's words. He couldn't help but feel aggrieved.

"Cough... cough cough cough!" The inner torment and the injury just now made him unable to help but spit out a mouthful of blood.

Kitahara Xiao turned around indifferently and said lightly

"Since you want to join the association, then the test is necessary. Call all your team members and prepare well. I will test you personally."

He turned around and looked at them.

"Don't be careless, otherwise you will die"
