Douluo Continent: Dragon Shadow Rebirth

The next morning, a tense atmosphere filled the air above the academy. Most of the students were in their dormitories, not daring to move around. Vice President Feng Jian had issued an emergency notice, requiring everyone to remain vigilant. Patrolling guards could be seen in every corner of the training ground and the academy, and everyone was preparing for the upcoming battle.

Qin Feng and his friends were sitting in the dormitory, waiting nervously. A hurried knock on the door outside the window broke the silence.

"It's me. The vice-president asked me to inform you." A guard pushed the door open with a serious expression on his face.

"What happened?" Qin Feng immediately stood up and asked.

"The vice president asked you to go to his office. He said he has something important to tell you." The guard replied.

Qin Feng nodded, and quickly left the dormitory with his companions and headed straight to the vice president's office. Feng Jian was standing in front of the office window, looking at the mountains in the distance with a solemn expression.

"Vice President, we are here." Qin Feng said.

Feng Jian turned around, his face grim: "According to our intelligence, those men in black are gathering and preparing to attack the academy. Their goal is clear, which is to revive the Lord of Shadow."

"We have prepared our defenses," Chu Tian said, "but where will they attack from?"

"It is very likely that they will come from the forest on the north side of the academy." Feng Jian replied, "The terrain there is complex and easy to hide, and it is also the most likely place for them to hide."

"What should we do?" Ye Li asked.

"You need to lead a team to the northern forest and make sure no one can get through." Feng Jian said, "The other elders and mentors will be scattered around the academy. We must keep the enemy out."

"Understood." Qin Feng nodded firmly, "We will guard the north side."

Qin Feng and his companions acted quickly. They formed a team with more than a dozen elite guards and headed towards the northern forest. Along the way, Qin Feng was secretly alert and ready to deal with possible dangers at any time.

"Everyone, be alert." Qin Feng reminded, "The enemy may appear at any time."

"Brother Feng, we will be careful." Zhang Meng clenched his fists, ready to take action at any time.

Soon, they reached the edge of the northern forest. This forest was usually sparsely populated, and the sound of wind coming from deep in the dense forest seemed to foreshadow the upcoming battle.

"We will set up a defense line here." Qin Feng commanded, "Everyone spread out and form an encirclement."

The guards acted quickly, setting traps and cordons in the forest to ensure that no one could pass through easily. Qin Feng and his companions stood on a high place, paying close attention to the movements in the depths of the forest.

"I hope we can be prepared before they take action." Ye Li whispered.

"We can definitely do it." Chu Tian answered firmly, "No matter how many enemies there are, we will not let them succeed."

At noon, Qin Feng suddenly felt a strange breath. He immediately became alert and whispered to Chu Tian beside him: "Something is happening, be careful."

As soon as he finished speaking, a low sound of footsteps came from deep in the forest. Qin Feng listened carefully and judged that a large group of people were approaching them.

"Here we go." Qin Feng said calmly, "Get ready to fight!"

Following the order, the guards picked up their weapons and aimed forward. A moment later, a group of men in black appeared in the field of vision. They were wearing uniform black cloaks, holding various weapons, and their eyes were fierce.

"These guys are here as expected." Zhang Meng said gritting his teeth.

The leading black-clad man saw Qin Feng and the others and sneered, "You are indeed here. But do you think you can stop us with just these few people?"

Qin Feng did not answer, but held the Dragon Shadow Sword tightly, his eyes were like torches. He knew that nonsense was useless, and only fighting could solve the problem.

"Get ready for battle!" Qin Feng shouted and took the lead to rush towards the man in black.

The battle broke out instantly, the men in black brandished their weapons and engaged the guards of the academy fiercely. Qin Feng held the Dragon Shadow Sword, the sword flashed like lightning, and shuttled through the enemy group, and wherever he passed, the men in black fell one after another.

"There are quite a lot of these guys." Chu Tian said as he swung his sword, "We have to hold on!"

Ye Li stood in the back, throwing out a spell, golden light shone everywhere, blocking the black-clothed man's way. Zhang Meng swung his fist, the power was like a storm, and each punch could knock an enemy away.

"Everyone hold on! We can't let them break through our defense!" Qin Feng shouted.

As the battle progressed, the number of men in black increased, and there seemed to be no end. Qin Feng and his companions gradually felt overwhelmed, and the guards began to suffer casualties.

"How many of these guys are there?" Zhang Meng panted, his face covered in sweat.

"We have to find a way to break out, otherwise we will be surrounded!" Chu Tian said anxiously.

Qin Feng gritted his teeth and persisted. He knew that if he gave up the defense line, the men in black would march straight in and threaten the safety of the academy. He quickly scanned the battlefield, looking for a direction to break through.

"Look over there!" Ye Li pointed to an open space not far away, "There are fewer enemies there, we can break out from there!"

Qin Feng nodded: "Okay, let's rush over!"

"Everyone follow me!" Qin Feng shouted, and rushed towards the open space with the guards. The men in black tried to stop them, but they fell one after another under Qin Feng's Dragon Shadow Sword.

"Go! Rush out!" Zhang Meng waved his fists and cleared a path.

The guards followed closely behind, rushing to the open space with all their might. After a fierce battle, they finally broke through the enemy's encirclement and temporarily escaped from danger.

However, just as they were catching their breath, suddenly, a strong dark aura surged from the air, making it hard for them to breathe. Qin Feng looked up and saw a dark shadow gradually gathering on the top of a mountain in the distance.

"What is that?" Chu Tian asked in horror.

"It's the Lord of Shadows!" Ye Li's face turned pale, "They are really resurrecting the Lord of Shadows!"

"Oh no! We are too late." Qin Feng's heart tightened, "We must stop them immediately!"

"Everyone follow me!" Qin Feng ordered again and rushed to the top of the mountain with the guards.

But before they could get close, a dark shadow suddenly blocked their way. It was a tall man in black, shrouded in darkness, with a fierce light in his eyes.

"Don't even think about getting through." The man in black sneered, his voice as low as thunder. "The Lord of Shadows is about to be resurrected, and all of you will become his slaves!"

Qin Feng did not back down and raised the Dragon Shadow Sword: "We won't let you succeed!"

The man in black laughed grimly, waved his hand and summoned a black energy, rushing towards Qin Feng. Qin Feng swung his sword to meet it, and the lightning and darkness collided in the air, making a deafening explosion.

"Everyone be careful! This guy is not easy to deal with!" Chu Tian reminded and rushed forward with Zhang Meng.

The black-clothed man was very powerful, and the dark energy spread everywhere, forcing Qin Feng and his companions to retreat step by step. But Qin Feng was not afraid, he knew that this was their last chance and he had to do his best.

"For the academy! For justice!" Qin Feng shouted, and the Dragon Shadow Sword shone brightly, piercing the black-clothed man's heart.

Seeing Qin Feng's fierce attack, the man in black immediately waved his dark energy to resist. The two forces clashed fiercely in the air, and the surrounding trees fell down one after another under the shock wave, and the ground was also torn apart.

"Brother Feng, be careful!" Ye Li shouted, throwing out a few talismans to block the black-clothed man's retreat.

Zhang Meng and Chu Tian also attacked from both sides, forcing the man in black to divert his attention. Qin Feng took the opportunity to strike with all his strength, and the Dragon Shadow Sword pierced through the man in black's defense and hit him directly in the chest.

"Ah!" The man in black screamed, and the dark energy began to collapse. His body gradually dissipated and turned into a ball of black mist that disappeared into the air.

"We succeeded!" Zhang Meng shouted excitedly.

"Hurry to the top of the mountain! We can't let them complete the ceremony!" Qin Feng did not relax at all and rushed to the top of the mountain with his companions.

When they reached the top of the mountain, they saw a group of men in black surrounding an altar, chanting ancient spells. In the center of the altar, the figure of the Lord of Shadows was gradually solidifying.

"Stop them!" Qin Feng shouted and rushed forward.

Seeing this, the men in black immediately turned around to fight. But they obviously underestimated the determination of Qin Feng and his companions. Ye Li's spell sealed the enemy's actions, and Chu Tian and Zhang Meng's attacks swept in like a storm.

"We can't let him be resurrected!" Qin Feng shouted, swinging his sword towards the altar.

The Dragon Shadow Sword slashed towards the center of the altar with the force of thunder. The figure of the Lord of Shadows was hit by the sword light, and he let out a shrill scream, then disappeared in mid-air.

"We did it!" Ye Li breathed a sigh of relief and a smile appeared on her face.

Qin Feng also put down his sword and let out a long breath: "Yes, we succeeded."

The men in black saw the Shadow Lord being repelled and fled in panic. Qin Feng and his companions did not chase after him, because they knew that the real victory was already in their hands.

After the battle, Qin Feng and his companions returned to the academy with exhausted bodies. Vice Dean Feng Jian had already learned of their victory and welcomed their return.

"You did a great job." Feng Jian nodded approvingly. "Although this battle was difficult, you defended the safety of the academy with courage and wisdom."

Qin Feng and his companions smiled at each other. They knew that this battle made them more united and also allowed them to see each other's growth.

"However, we cannot let our guard down." Feng Jian continued, "Although the resurrection of the Shadow Lord has been prevented, his followers are still there, and we must continue to be vigilant."

"We will." Qin Feng said firmly, "No matter how many challenges lie ahead, we will stand together."

"That's right, we are the strongest team!" Zhang Meng grinned.

"No matter what happens in the future, we will fight side by side." Ye Li said with a smile.

"Of course!" Chu Tian smiled and patted Qin Feng's shoulder.

As night fell, the lights in the academy were still bright. Qin Feng and his companions stood in front of the window, looking at the starry sky outside, their hearts full of hope.

They know that no matter how many difficulties and challenges lie ahead, they will meet them together and face them together. This is their legend and the glory of the entire college.
