Hong Xiu’s Fire Kite was not her first spiritual pet, so its strength wasn’t the greatest.
However, its current level had reached the First Level of the Seventh Rank, making it an exceptionally powerful spiritual pet.
Especially for Ye Ling and his companions, who were only at the First Rank, the Fire Kite was a being they could only look up to.
In the dark night, the Fire Kite, engulfed in blazing flames, looked like a miniature sun.
The Black Ravens that got too close were instantly incinerated, leaving not even a feather behind.
“Oh? What is Teacher Hong planning? Why summon her spiritual pet at this moment?”
Lu Feng, aboard the Azure Dragon Academy’s airship, was naturally curious about the unusual activity on the Vermilion Bird Academy’s airship.
Of course, it wasn’t just Lu Feng; Bai Tong and Huo Ling from the other two major academies were equally curious.
“Is Teacher Hong planning to wipe out all these Black Ravens in one go?”
Bai Tong stroked his chin, watching the Fire Kite with great interest.
Compared to the other two, Huo Ling believed that Hong Xiu must have something important in mind.
Otherwise, why would she suddenly summon her spiritual pet in such a situation?
Facing a flock of Black Ravens, there was no need for a Seventh Rank Spirit Tamer to act.
Even a Seventh Rank spiritual pet alone could easily annihilate the countless Black Ravens in this area.
“What exactly is Teacher Hong planning?”
Huo Ling crossed her arms, leaning against the lift platform, her gaze fixed on the fiery Fire Kite.
Meanwhile, on the Vermilion Bird Academy’s airship, Hong Xiu hadn’t given any orders.
She summoned the Fire Kite merely to ensure Blood Phantom’s safety.
In her view, Ye Ling was too young to let Blood Phantom risk herself in such a manner.
A slight misstep could result in the loss of such a capable spiritual pet like Blood Phantom.
Therefore, no matter what, Hong Xiu felt she had to protect Ye Ling’s spiritual pet.
The moment Hong Xiu summoned the Fire Kite, Ye Ling was already stunned.
The enormous fiery wings and the blazing body exuded a powerful sense of oppression.
Of course, this was because Hong Xiu had deliberately restrained its aura; otherwise, Ye Ling and Yun Yi wouldn’t even be able to stand in its presence.
Since it posed no threat to him, Ye Ling only took a deep look before turning his attention back to Blood Phantom.
At this moment, Blood Phantom, transformed into a streak of blood-red light, was charging towards the Black Raven King’s position, breaking through layers of Black Raven defenses.
Blood Phantom had also spotted her target this time.
The Black Raven King was noticeably larger than the surrounding Black Ravens. Unlike the common Black Ravens, whose feathers were pitch black, the Black Raven King’s feathers had a slight purple hue.
However, this color change was not very noticeable in the dark.
Another distinctive feature was its eyes. Unlike the common Black Ravens’ eyes, the Black Raven King’s eyes were a faint purple-gray, making it stand out.
Upon identifying her target, Blood Phantom didn’t hesitate for a moment.
Stepping on a Black Raven, Blood Phantom charged directly at the Black Raven King.
A streak of blood-red light rapidly approached the Black Raven King, scaring it away from its previous position.
Although the Black Raven King was a Second Rank demon, it was particularly timid.
Otherwise, it wouldn’t have stayed at the back, silently controlling the Black Raven flock.
At this moment, despite the Black Raven King’s superior strength, the situation was completely reversed.
Blood Phantom’s swift and fierce attack was narrowly dodged by the Black Raven King.
However, Blood Phantom didn’t stop her assault; instead, her attacks grew faster, forcing the Black Raven King into a frantic retreat.
But the real reason for the Black Raven King’s escape wasn’t Blood Phantom.
It was the sudden appearance of the Fire Kite, whose overwhelming presence terrified it.
Facing the fleeing Black Raven King, the Black Ravens were at a loss.
They acted on the Black Raven King’s orders, and now, without any commands, they didn’t know what to do.
“Is that the Black Raven King? It’s being chased all over the place! This… is too strong!”
“Wait, is this really a Second Rank demon? Why does it seem so timid? If it were me, could I fight it too?”
“Now that you mention it, I think I could handle it.”
“Nonsense, didn’t you see that giant flaming bird? The Black Raven King is probably scared of that.”
…
People on the other airships were discussing the fleeing Black Raven King.
This was far from the Second Rank demon they had imagined.
“Teacher Hong, is the Second Rank Black Raven King really this weak?”
Yun Yi curiously watched the Black Raven King being chased by Blood Phantom and asked Hong Xiu.
Hearing this, Hong Xiu shook her head slightly and explained.
“Don’t underestimate it. It’s just scared of my Fire Kite right now. Once it recovers, it will counterattack.”
Just as Hong Xiu finished speaking, the Black Raven King, as if following her prediction, suddenly halted its fleeing body.
