Chapter 24 Hunter and PreyThere is an open space among the dense woods. Ten figures were crossing and flashing, attacking each other. Every once in a while, a young man would be beaten to the point of vomiting blood and fainting, falling to the ground unconscious. After only seven or eight minutes, five young men who were obviously freshmen were knocked to the ground and lay on the ground. Around them, another five people were leisurely reaching into their arms and groping to take out the black crystal cards hidden by the freshmen. "Haha, fellow students, why don't you just give us the fire energy obediently? Why do you have to take a beating to feel better?" In the open space, a young man in black looked at the three extra fire energies on the crystal card in his hand and smiled at the people on the ground. "Don't look at us like that. We were robbed by the seniors last year, so we came to rob you this year. Haha, if you want revenge in the future, I'll be waiting for your challenge at any time, but the prerequisite is that you have to have enough fire energy." Seeing the unconvinced looks from the crowd, the young man in black waved the crystal card in his hand and laughed. "Let's go, Lin Qi. Why waste time talking to these freshmen? We still have to find other targets." The other senior students saw that Lin Qi was still laughing at the freshmen, and they spoke with some dissatisfaction. Their participation in the fire energy hunting competition was conditional. If they did not take advantage of this opportunity to grab more fire energy from the freshmen, they would have to work to pay off their debts when they returned to the inner courtyard. "No need to look for it, fellow seniors, we are here." A faint voice sounded on the branches above their heads. The old students who were planning to leave looked up in a hurry, only to see a child standing on a branch, looking at them with a smile. There was also a person standing on each of the branches around the open space. A total of five people formed a pentagon and surrounded them.
"The average strength is around two-star great fighters. The four of you, each choose an opponent and fight quickly to avoid other teams noticing anything." Xiao Yun sensed the cultivation level of the old students below with just a sweep of his soul power, and began to give instructions to Fang Wen and others. "!" Lin Qi and the others were shocked. It was abnormal that the freshmen who were supposed to hide like mice appeared in front of them. Now one of the children could accurately tell their cultivation level. Wasn't it obvious that his strength was far superior to theirs? "Okay, captain." The four of them nodded slightly and looked at each other. A powerful aura suddenly surged out. Four pieces of fighting spirit armor of different colors also covered their bodies. Then they moved and appeared in the open space as fast as lightning. They each chose an opponent to fight. "Damn, how come these freshmen are so strong? Each of them is almost catching up with me in momentum, and the most terrifying one hasn't made a move yet." Seeing Fang Wen and others entangled with his companions, Lin Qi, who had previously mocked the freshmen, swallowed hard and quickly condensed a fighting spirit armor. At the same time, the fighting spirit gathered on his palms, obviously preparing some killing move. "Oh? You are not going to hand over the Fire Energy Card? Then I will take action." Xiao Yun did not take out his weapon, but looked at the nervous Lin Qi below. The fighting spirit in his body began to circulate, and the aura around him suddenly increased. call! ! "Go to hell!" Seeing Xiao Yun's momentum rising, Lin Qi couldn't hold back anymore and took the lead in launching an attack. A cyan ball of light condensed in Lin Qi's palm, then shot out violently, blasting towards Xiao Yun above. The ball of light went straight through Xiao Yun's body, its power undiminished, directly piercing through all the branches above, and finally exploded in mid-air, causing circles of energy ripples. "Is he dead?" There was a big hole on Xiao Yun's chest. Through the hole, Lin Qi could even see the blue sky behind him. "What are you talking about? Senior, I'm fine, aren't I?" A short black shadow suddenly appeared in front of him strangely. Lin Qi's pupils shrank slightly, and he watched a fist full of tyrannical fighting spirit hit his chest directly. The fierce energy in it actually caused a sharp sonic boom in the air. "What a powerful force." Feeling the power and speed of the black shadow's punch, Lynch was shocked, hoping that the fighting spirit armor on his body could block the punch for him. When the fist touched the fighting spirit armor, Lin Qi finally felt how terrifying the power in Xiao Yun's fist was. The powerful force made his heart stop beating. He then spat out a mouthful of blood, and his body suddenly shot out and hit the tree trunk heavily. Lin Qi only felt dizzy, as if his head was about to explode under this powerful force. He looked down and was horrified to find that the fighting spirit armor he had just summoned was completely shattered by the opponent's attack. His body curled up like a shrimp, and before he could look up at the other companions on the field, he heard several muffled sounds, like the sound of heavy objects hitting the ground. Then, Lin Qi's four companions crawled to his side with blood on their faces and curled up under the tree trunk together. "Seniors, don't be so cowardly. Hand over the fire energy cards quickly and honestly." Xiao Yun walked slowly in front of the few people and said with a smile. Hearing this, the old students shuddered all over, and then hurriedly raised their heads with some trembling, looking at Xiao Yun in front of them and the four people behind him, and asked with some fear in their eyes: "What do you want the fire card for?" "Of course I'm going to do the same thing you did before. What? Do you want me to take it myself?" He raised his arm, and a long spear with a fiery red body stabbed into the ground next to Lynch's head. The spear stabbed down with a sharp force, scratching his face and causing him pain. Looking at the spear so close at hand, Lin Qi swallowed hard, and with trembling hands he took out a light blue crystal card from his ring and handed it to Xiao Yun. He took the light blue fire crystal card with a smile, and when he saw the number on it was as high as fifty, the smile on Xiao Yun's face became even wider. "Tsk tsk, you robbed a lot of people, senior, what a pity, now I, the prey, have captured them!" Xiao Yun said softly. Hearing his words, Lin Qi, who was lying on the ground, turned pale due to the injury, and his face turned as black as the bottom of a pot.
"Boss, we're rich this time. This group of old students have more than ten days more fire energy than last time." Fang Wen and others followed suit, snatching the fire crystal cards from the arms of the other four, transferring the fire energy on them to their own cards, and shouting in surprise. …… In another part of the open space, five freshmen with bruised faces and noses were lying on the ground, staring at the actions of Xiao Yun and others in amazement. It was not until now that they realized that Xiao Yun had robbed the seniors. "Good job!" Seeing the seniors who had just robbed them being easily defeated by Xiao Yun and his four companions, and having their fire energy taken away, the freshmen felt that the beatings they had received before were no longer painful, and their mood became cheerful. People are like this. When they encounter bad luck, they will be unhappy, but when they find that other people are worse off than themselves, they feel much more balanced. "You guys, are you not seriously injured?" Xiao Yun walked up to the five freshmen and asked. "It's okay, it's okay. These old students are still very careful when they attack. It's just some flesh wounds." "That's fine. Next we will look for other teams of senior students to defeat. You have been robbed once now, so you can go to the end of the forest without worry." "But I want to remind you, don't think that you have passed the level just by reaching the end of the forest. There is a team with the strongest strength guarding there, and they will not let us pass easily. So, I hope you can meet at the end, and after we defeat the other teams of senior students, we can pass the level together." Xiao Yun left a few bottles of healing pills, explained the situation to the five people on the ground, and then left with Fang Wen and others. As for whether the five people would listen to him, that was not his concern. What needs to be said has been said, and Xiao Yun can accept any result. …… (End of this chapter)
