Lin Yu took a step back with his right foot, stepping onto the cold, hard stone by the stream. He placed his left hand on the knife at his waist and smoothly inserted the chain into the knife handle, producing a crisp "click." His gaze became more focused as he entered a combat state. 0
 
Five sneered, "Come on... Thirteen, you know you're looking forward to this fight... blood, admit it... you're just a bloodthirsty beast!" His voice was filled with provocation and disdain, and the dagger glinted coldly in the moonlight. 0
 
Lin Yu felt Five's gaze fixed on him like a venomous snake, and he remained alert. He knew Five was incredibly fast; any slight movement could be fatal. Five began to move slowly to the left, his steps light and steady, as if searching for the perfect moment to attack. 0
 
Lin Yu dared not be careless; he slowly adjusted his stance, keeping his eyes locked on Five. His breathing became even and deep, every muscle in his body tense and ready to respond to Five's sudden assault. He understood that every step Five took was calculated, and any oversight would be seized upon. 0
 
Five's dagger swayed lightly in his hand, tracing cold arcs through the air. His expression was cold and focused, seemingly relishing the impending battle. As Five's steps drew closer, Lin Yu's heartbeat quickened, but he forced himself to remain calm, refusing to be swayed by his opponent's taunts and pressure. 0
 
"Thirteen, what's wrong? Are you scared?" Five's voice carried a hint of mockery as the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, seemingly eager for the upcoming fight. 0
 
Lin Yu did not respond; he tightened his grip on the knife handle, feeling the coldness of the chain and the sharpness of the blade. He knew there could be no hesitation at this moment. No matter how much Five provoked him, he had to maintain a clear mind to find an opportunity in this life-and-death struggle. 0
 
Five watched Lin Yu and suddenly flipped both daggers in his hands; moonlight reflected into Lin Yu's eyes. The blinding flash caused Lin Yu to lose his sight for an instant, leaving everything before him a blur. Alarmed, he realized he had fallen into Five's trap. 0
 
In that moment, Five launched his attack. He charged forward suddenly, stabbing at Lin Yu with lightning speed while letting out a terrifying cackle. Lin Yu could only quickly retreat, stepping into the icy stream with splashes of water flying around him. With nowhere else to go, he instinctively swung out a knife strike, its blade cutting through the night in an attempt to create an opening for himself. 0
 
Lin Yu's blade traced a fierce arc through the air; despite his blurred vision, he relied on instinct and years of training to launch an attack. Five moved extremely quickly; his dual daggers glinted coldly in the moonlight as they approached Lin Yu like two venomous snakes. 0
 
Five's cackling grew more piercing; he confidently believed this strike would surely take down Lin Yu. However, Lin Yu's wild slash forced Five to take a step back to avoid that deadly blow. Lin Yu's knife sliced through the air with a buzzing sound, carrying a strong aura of killing intent. 0
 
Lin Yu felt the icy stream beneath him and heard the gentle flow of water alongside his rapid breaths. He forced himself to calm down; although his vision remained blurred, he knew he could not back down. His resolve remained steadfast; for his goals, no matter how treacherous the path ahead might be, he would charge forward head-on. 0
 
 
Five was forced back a step by Lin Yu's knife, but he did not feel discouraged. A hint of cruel light flashed in his eyes: "Not bad, Thirteen, now that's more like it." He took up an attacking stance again, the dagger glinting coldly in the moonlight, ready to launch another deadly strike. 0
 
Lin Yu took a deep breath, sensing the surrounding environment and the presence of his enemy. His vision gradually cleared, but he knew that Five would not give him much time to breathe. He tightened his grip on the knife handle, his gaze sharpening, prepared to face Five's next attack. 0
 
In the icy stream, the standoff between Lin Yu and Five resembled two fierce beasts testing each other in the darkness, ready to unleash deadly power in an instant. Lin Yu was filled with determination for the future and a cold awareness of reality; he knew this battle would determine his fate, but he was ready to meet this inevitable battle with his sword. 0
 
Lin Yu quickly shook his head, trying to restore his vision. However, just as he could see clearly again, a large stone was hurled at him. He instantly turned around to see Six standing by the stream, picking up a rock from the ground and throwing it at him. Lin Yu instinctively dodged but still felt the stone graze him, losing his balance and rolling into the stream. 0
 
The cold water instantly engulfed his body, and the resistance of the water slowed his movements. Lin Yu felt his limbs bound by the icy current, unable to move as swiftly as he could on land. At that moment, a ruthless glint flashed in Five's eyes as he seized this rare opportunity, thrusting the dagger downwards like a venomous snake. 0
 
Feeling the imminent danger, Lin Yu rolled suddenly to avoid the fatal blow. However, the dagger still pierced through his clothing and struck his waist. Fortunately, Five's thrust only tore through Lin Yu's clothes without injuring his flesh. Lin Yu felt a chill at his waist as his shirt was ripped open, tattered fabric floating in the water. 0
 
A hint of displeasure appeared on Five's face as he shouted angrily, "You really are lucky, Thirteen!" 0
 
Lin Yu gritted his teeth and struggled to stand up from the water. He knew that this passive situation had to be reversed quickly; otherwise, he would soon be overwhelmed by both opponents. He took a deep breath, allowing the cold stream water to stimulate his nerves and keep him highly alert. 0
 
Six stood by the stream's edge, coldly watching Lin Yu, hands gripping the Iron Whip, ready to strike at any moment. Lin Yu understood that he had to deal with two strong enemies simultaneously, but he could not retreat. His heart was filled with determination; no matter how difficult it was, he had to find a way out for himself and Xiao Yun. 0
 
"Come on," Lin Yu whispered to himself, "this is my destiny and my choice." 0
 
He tightened his grip on the knife again, leaning slightly forward in preparation for the next wave of attacks. In the moonlight, Lin Yu's figure appeared particularly resolute, with an unyielding light flickering in his eyes. 0
