Chapter 361 The Start Of An Upset

After seeing one person take on all of the rabid students that were between the third stage and fourth stage, the will, the confidence that all of what Lisa and Sherry had completely disappeared.

"Look at you guys now, huh?" Mada stood up and immediately swung his sword. Visual Qi of a flowing waterfall appeared as he smashed it right against the neck of one of the Red Headband students.

His whole body had fallen to the ground immediately. It was hard to know if the student had been killed from the powerful Qi strike or just hurt, but it was clear that he wasn't going to get up from the strike either way.

"You guys, you really decided to team up with those that were trying to kill us!" Mada shouted at the other Red Headband student that had gone against them.

"During this entire time, we main disciples had decided to do nothing. We decided to leave all you guys be! Do you think we wanted to take part in this crap pot of an assessment? And, then when you get the chance you go against us!"

"Wait!" The student frantically dropped his weapon to the side and was shaking his hands. "It was Lisa's idea, the whole thing was her idea. She said that only five of us could go through anyway! How were we meant to go against one of the Main Disciples?"

"Did you forget who I am!" Mada swung his sword, bashing it right across the student's face. Blood splattered in the air along with a few teeth hitting the floor just before the student's head hit the ground.

"I'm a Main Disciple as well!" Mada stated.

Hearing who was behind the attack in the first place, Raze had decided to move away from the bodies on the ground he had created. He looked over at the others. They were hurt, cut in places and bleeding, but none of the wounds looked to be major. More than anything, they looked a bit exhausted, and it was the same for the others as well.

After seeing this, he turned around and headed back into the hallway where he had come from without saying a word.

Both Sherry and Lisa let out a big sigh of relief after seeing this. They didn't know why, but the look in Raze's eyes, and whenever he was in the room, it just made them feel sick.

"What, you think now you're free, after we just heard your plan, and the fact that you tried to kill us?" Ricktor said. "More specifically, you had personally targeted me as well."

The two girls looked at each other out of the corner of their eye. In their heads, they were both trying to see how they could get out of this situation.

"We were left with no choice!" Lisa shouted. "You know what this assessment is for. The plan was for all of us to get through; we were the chosen ones for this assessment.

"But then, we saw you getting buddy-buddy with the others! There are only five places. What did you want us to do, just give our lives? We were meant to get rid of Raze together, and then the others, but you ruined that."

"Get rid of Raze?" Ricktor replied. "That was an order that was given by your Clan Head, not mine, and our positions were never secure."

What they needed was the main disciples to join them. Not only would they be a benefit in strength, but also a benefit in information gathering and weaknesses of their clan.

They needed them more so than the others, and Dame was wondering if, with everything going on, enough anger had been placed in them.

While waiting, though, Sherry had stepped forward and had headed towards the food, to which Raze responded by stepping in her way.

"Not for you two, you two don't get a choice," Raze replied.

"What... but you just said... you just said."

"The one thing that we need if we are going against the academy together is trust," Raze replied. "Trust is the foundation of any secret group operating in a place."

"We have to trust everyone with the information they give, with the tasks given with our lives, because one wrong move and it could mean the death of us all.

"You two have already betrayed us once. That trust is forever broken, and it can never be mended no matter what you do," Raze ordered.

"But... but...!" Sherry was shaking. How did the situation change for her? Right there and then, close to rage, she lifted her fan aiming right for his chin.

Raze stepped back, dodging the blow. "Now!" Sherry shouted.

Right then, Lisa pulled out a small dagger, laced green. It was a special dagger she had been keeping on her for a while now.

'The Clan Head, she gave me this. She gave me it and told me to use it when the time was right. It's laced with the strongest poison that can take out even level 5 beasts. It's practically a clan's treasure.'

'She told me to use it at the right time, and this is the only time I can use it.'

It was thrown out with all the Qi she had. It went perfectly straight and had hit Raze right on his shoulder. When it did, though, it didn't penetrate him. Instead, a small reflective image appeared like a glare in a mirror, and the dagger had fallen to the ground.

'The blazer... I currently have it in a hidden state underneath the school robes... it activated and protected me from the dagger.'

While thinking this, Raze already had held Sherry with one hand, and her entire body had already shriveled up, her energy absorbed.

"That dagger, it should have stabbed you, it should have killed you!" Lisa shouted. "How did you stop it? What are you... you... you monster!"
