When Hong Xiu saw Blood Phantom holding her own against the Black Raven King, the worry in her heart finally eased.
With a wave of her hand, Hong Xiu recalled her spiritual pet, the Fire Kite.
No matter what, her Fire Kite was a Seventh Rank spiritual pet, which had a significant advantage over these First Rank Black Ravens.
Even if it just hovered silently in the air without attacking, its mere presence was enough to intimidate the Black Ravens, preventing them from acting recklessly.
To avoid affecting the students’ battle, Hong Xiu naturally withdrew her Fire Kite.
Through the earlier battle, she had confirmed that Ye Ling’s spiritual pet could easily retreat even when facing the Black Raven King, so there was no need for her to worry.
Her gaze returned to the sky, where the Black Raven King, eyes filled with murderous intent, was glaring at Blood Phantom.
The Black Raven King wasn’t a particularly powerful Second Rank demon, and its intelligence was limited.
It simply thought it had been careless earlier and was ambushed by Blood Phantom, not realizing it had been poisoned.
Even a low-level Second Rank demon was still a Second Rank, much stronger than a First Rank.
But now, a mere First Rank spiritual pet had managed to injure it, naturally enraging the Black Raven King.
“Ka!!”
A sharp cry echoed through the sky, and the previously panicked Black Ravens, intimidated by the Fire Kite, quickly regrouped.
They launched a fierce attack, with the Black Raven King charging at Blood Phantom.
The first injury was due to its carelessness, but now the Black Raven King was on high alert, not giving Blood Phantom another chance.
The Black Ravens quickly gathered, some attacking the airship, others surrounding Blood Phantom.
“Ka ka ka!!”
“Ka ka ka!!”
The cacophony of the Black Ravens’ cries assaulted their ears, causing discomfort even if it didn’t cause any harm.
Fortunately, Blood Phantom remained unaffected by the noise, continuing to attack the Black Ravens with focus.
Large numbers of Black Ravens fell to the ground under Blood Phantom’s assault.
While attacking, Blood Phantom also kept an eye on the Black Raven King’s movements.
Whenever the Black Raven King attacked, Blood Phantom would dodge immediately, seemingly uninterested in engaging directly.
This behavior piqued Yun Yi’s curiosity as she watched from the airship.
She glanced at Ye Ling beside her and couldn’t help but ask, “Ye Ling, why isn’t your spiritual pet fighting back? It’s just dodging that big Black Raven.”
Ye Ling smiled mysteriously and replied, “You’ll see if it doesn’t leave soon.”
His cryptic response left Yun Yi pouting in frustration.
【What’s with this guy? What’s so secretive about it? Can’t he just tell me?】
“Whoosh~! Whoosh~!”
At that moment, Yun Yi heard heavy breathing.
Following the sound, she saw her spiritual pet, the Frost Giant Bear, lying on the airship, looking utterly exhausted.
It had expended a lot of energy breathing out frost, and its stamina was now depleted.
If she tried to make the Frost Giant Bear stand, it would be difficult.
Looking up at Blood Phantom still fighting in the sky and then at her own exhausted Frost Giant Bear, Yun Yi felt helpless. How could there be such a big difference?
Both were spiritual pets, so why was her Frost Giant Bear so useless?
“Big Bear, why are you sleeping? Get up and keep fighting.”
Hearing its master’s command, the Frost Giant Bear rolled its eyes helplessly, then rolled over, turning its head away.
It clearly didn’t want to move and just wanted to rest.
No one could change its mind, not even the king of heaven.
“Big Bear! Big Bear!”
After calling twice without a response, Yun Yi shook her head helplessly.
“Come back, Big Bear.”
She knew her Frost Giant Bear must be too tired to respond.
It was a rare chance for real combat, and now it was wasted. Yun Yi felt resigned.
But there was nothing she could do. They had encountered flying demons.
If they were ground-based demons, the Frost Giant Bear would have been much more effective.
In the sky, the Black Raven King, continuously chasing Blood Phantom, finally showed signs of fatigue.
The wounds on its wings had stiffened, affecting its flight.
Its speed, which had once matched Blood Phantom’s, gradually slowed.
Its wing movements became stiff.
At this point, the Black Raven King realized it had fallen into a trap.
“Ka!!”
Fearing for its safety, the Black Raven King suddenly wanted to retreat.
After all, it was afraid of dying.
