"Always stay focused when fighting, if not, you'll lose your life like that pig over there." Klaus advised the others while pointing at the man who had been shattered to pieces.
Hearing how he referred to the man, the others were vexed. Klaus was a shameless and annoying individual and they wished to end his life.
Klaus knew these people wanted to kill him, the killing intent they were all radiating was something he was all too used to.
"You want to kill me? Haha, with such weak strength? Even if I stand here and let you attack all you want, you still wouldn't be able to touch a single hair on my body." Klaus laughed.
"I'm still in a good mood. Why don't you scurry off like the dogs you are. If not, I'll kill you." Klaus' expression turned cold, and the temperature dropped significantly. It was evident that it was Klaus' doing.
"What are you doing? Do you want to freeze us too?" Reynolds' words brought Klaus back to his senses as he gave a sheepish smile.
"It's for dramatic effect. Don't tell me you can't handle this little cold?" Klaus gave Reynolds a demeaning look.
"Who are you looking at? I'll strike you if you try it again." Reynolds said with a serious expression.
"Don't think I'm afraid of your Elemental Warrior. If you know you're a man, fight with me one on one, don't ask for help from your Elemental Warrior." Klaus looked at him, ready to fight.
"You think I can't take you on?"
"Not without the Elemental Warrior."
"It's part of my strength."
"That's just an excuse to hide your weakness. If not for the fact that we've been friends for a long time now, I would've beaten you up."
"Hehe, I don't think I have any problems with handling you. Have you forgotten all the times I beat you?"
The other fourteen paused when they saw Klaus and Reynolds in a heated argument. Their expressions showed that they were ready to attack any minute.
Just as they were about to get back to their normal fight, they noticed that the other person that was at the Eighth stage was frozen solid.
"I thought I warned you guys to always focus when fighting? What the hell are you doing now? Damn it! Now they'll say I'm a terrible Teacher." Klaus facepalmed.
In the blink of an eye, the two people with the highest cultivation stages were taken out by Klaus. What was worse was that they didn't see the attack until it was too late.
Klaus and Reynolds were arguing, but now they understood the duo weren't actually arguing, rather, they were buying time for Klaus to prepare his attack. The infuriating thing was that they got confused when they saw them arguing that they actually didn't attack them.
Klaus was a dangerous individual, but from the looks of it, he needed some time to prepare for this deadly attack. This was the only good thing on the part of the bandits. If Klaus could just shoot out infinite ice needles, then they were dead.
"You… you…"
"You what? I've been taking so much time to teach you guys simple battle knowledge, yet you still failed." Klaus was like a disappointed Teacher.
"Woefully at that." Reynolds added.
"Thank you." Klaus thanked Reynolds for his inclusion and said, "Now you see why I refused to take you guys in?"
The remaining thirteen people stared at the duo. To be honest, if anyone walked there, they would truly think Klaus was their Teacher. His acting was top notch. Even they were almost convinced.
"Are you dumb? Attack you fools!"
One of the Peak Elemental Venerables, the leaders of the bandit group yelled from the side.
They witnessed everything that happened and they don't know what to say. Klaus was an evil genius, while their men were just dumb fools that shouldn't even be alive.
Grey was laughing his head off while watching Klaus play with the bandits.
Klaus even made sure to include the leaders too, "Shut up! After all I taught you, see what you groomed!"
The man who spoke almost vomited blood when he heard this. Klaus was genuinely the person he hated the most at the moment. He didn't think there has ever been a time he hated someone as much as hates Klaus right now.
"I'll rip your flesh out and feed it to the dogs."
"Which dogs? These ones aren't capable of even barking." Klaus retorted.
The thirteen who were yelled at to fight weren't able to attack due to Klaus exchanging words with their leader.
Before long, two more people fell to the ground.
Klaus had struck again. This time, he killed two of them with one attack. These guys were only in the Seventh stage, and with his strength, he was certain he could take out two simultaneously with one attack.
The man who yelled almost dragged his hair out.
"Fuck! I'm going to kill him!"
The man wanted to head over to where Klaus was located.
"Calm down, when I'm done playing with them, I'll come play with you." Klaus said nonchalantly, he then added, "After all, you're the biggest dog among them. It's a shame that the bigger the dog, the stupider it gets."
Reynolds and Alice were in awe of Klaus' performance. He was single-handedly frustrating his opponents while killing off most of them.
"Stupid fools! Attack you fools!" The man couldn't move, Grey was stopping him from going over to attack Klaus.
Klaus attacked again, and another figure hit the ground, turning into an ice sculpture.
"I don't even know what to say. Calling you guys fools is like an insult to fools." Klaus sighed in defeat.
He didn't think he would be able to use the same trick so many times. In fact, they were well aware of his intentions, yet they were foolish watching him speak.
"Didn't I tell you to always stay focused?"
"Bad students."
