Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Dushh!!
Like a torpedo explosion, alongside a loud bang, a massive wave was kicked up as the rapid-flowing Murray River seemed to stop flowing for a moment.
It took a good moment before it returned ot normal and continued to flow.
Splashhh!
Christopher Adam rushed out of the water and floated in the air, but at this moment, he looked like a sorry lot.
His handsome blond hair was covered with silt and his gold wings exuding an immaculate aura had became wings of mud while his entire person was soaking wet, looking as miserable as one can get.

“B*stard!”
Fire raged in Christopher Adam’s eyes as he stared at Ling Jiu like a furious lion wanting to swallow the latter whole and devour the world.
Christopher Adam was furious, extremely furious. Has he been so miserable every since he awakened his Arcana?
No!
Never!
Yet today…
He had all of his face!
“Ling Jiu, show yourself!”
Christopher Adam growled angrily. “Give me face to face, what’s the point in sneaking around?”
“Fine! I’ll fulfill your wish!”
Ling Jiu appeared in mid-air.
“Die!”
Seeing Ling Jiu, Christopher Adam roared as he flapped his wings and charged.
A golden light shone brightly around his body as the wings on his back were like sharp blades as it cut through the air, seemingly able to slice through anything.
Crossing the distance of hundreds of meters in an instant, Christopher Adam raised his fist and punched at Ling Jiu.
The Iron Fist!
It was his one and only technique!
It was also the strongest technique!
With his Supersonic speed, his pair of iron fists could rip through a Class 6 Direbeast, and he now wanted to use these two fists to defeat Ling Jiu.
“Good timing!”
Ling Jiu took a step back as he slowly lifted his right fist. His body suddenly took on a dazzling bright silver colour as if he had taken a mercury-form.
In an instant, Ling Jiu became a two meter tall robot.
“What Arcana was that?”
“Alloy Form?”
“Is this Ling Jiu’s power-type Arcana?”
The spectators’ eyes widened, Shi Gang’s eyes also widened.Although he knew Ling Jiu had such an Arcana, it was the first time he saw the Tungsten Form.
“No matter what Arcana you have, you are not my match!”
Christopher Adamn roared as he blasted his fist out.
Crack!!
The golden fist instantly collided with the silver fist, and following that was a massive thunderclap, causing everyone’s ears to ring as they involuntarily covered them.
The raging waves rampaged all over and the charging Christopher Adam was sent flying backwards, tumbling back for several dozen meters before finally stabilizing himself.
On the other hand, Ling Jiu stood there unmoving. With just a single exchange, supremacy was established!
“You… You…”
Christopher Adam’s expression changed dramatically as he felt an aching pain coming from his right arm. When he looked at Ling Jiu standing there motionless once again, his eyes were full of disbelief.
“It’s not that I’m bragging, but in terms of strength, you don’t even deserve to be my sandal-bearer!”
Ling Jiu stepped on air as he walked toward Christopher Adam step by step. His silver body was shining all over as he took confident steps like a silver-armored God of War from the primordial heavens.
“The speed that you are so proud of is nothing but a joke before me!”
Ling Jiu took a step forward, and appeared before Christopher Adam like a phantom as he shot out a straight hook.
“Flying Thunder Smash!”
Dushh!!
Christopher Adam’s chest instantly sank as he puked out a mouthful of blood and flew backward uncontrollably.
He then tumbled straight into the Murray River, and was washed away by the rapids, no one knew whether he was still alive or dead.
The entire place fell silent!
All of the students looked at Ling Jiu, who was standing in the air, like an ancient god. They felt their throat dry as they all gulped their saliva back.
“He… lost?”
“Christopher actually lost?”
“He’s strength is stronger than Christopher, is he still human?”
“Two hits! He took down Christopher in just two hits!”
“Monster…”
All of the spectators discussed as their disdain and taunts disappeared, and were replace by shock and incredulity.
The same was true of Shi Gang as well.
“I know he was strong!”
Shi Gang smiled bitterly. “But I did not expect him to be that strong!”
“You people from Huaxia are all monsters!” Dylon huffed.
“The others may be monsters, but I’m sure as hell not. The gap between me and them is just too big!” Shi Gang smiled bitterly.
Ling Jiu did not know nor care what others thought. He looked at all of them and the meaning in his eyes was obvious: Anyone else?
The moment the students’ eyes met his, all of them lowered their heads knowingly.
With Ling Jiu beating Christopher Adam in just two hits, they admitted that they were not his match, and stood aside.
Ling Jiu nodded with satisfaction before flying to the Rainbow Snake floating in the air.
Although the Rainbow Snake was made out of seven special substances, it was a dead object without its own consciousness. Ling Jiu waved his hand and kept it inside his Dimensional Bag before leaving straight away.
“Huhhh… he finally left!”
“That’s bloody terrifying!”
“When I met him in the eyes earlier, I felt a little out of breath!”
“A pity! That’s a set of special substances, and it was taken away just like that. Ah, what a loss!”
“Ling Jiu, I’ll remember you!”
…
Voosh voosh!
Not long after Ling Jiu left, a series of figures appeared one after another, they were the students who came late, and when they learned that the Rainbow Snake had already been captured by Ling Jiu, anger raged in their chest.
Two million points…
Gone just like that!
Damn it!
“Where did he go to?”
“I’d advise you guys not to go look for him.”
“Why?”
“You lot can’t beat him!”
“Get lost!”
…
What happened after that Ling Jiu had no idea as he went straight back to the training camp.
Although there was still time, there was no longer any need to hunt. He had killed 98 Class 6 Direbeasts on Thursday, and on Friday, he had hunted 102 of them.
The number of Direbeasts he had hunted on the past two days was 200 in total, worth a total of 2 million points, and once adding the extra two million points from capturing the Rainbow Snake…
He had a total of four million points!
Ling Jiu believed that no one could surpass him now, and if that was the case, why waste time hunting the Direbeasts?
Not like he could sell it for money anyway!
When he came to the back office department, Ling Jiu handed in his harvest, and just when he was about to leave, he was told the camp commandant was looking for him.
“Commandant!”
Ling Jiu came to the camp commandant’s office.
“Ling Jiu, you’ve gotten the Rainbow Snake?” The commandant motioned for Ling Jiu to seat down, and then asked with a smile.
“Yes, sir!”
“Very good!”
The commandant nodded, and smiled. “First of all, congratulations on getting the Rainbow Snake!”
“Thank you!”
Ling Jiu smiled shyly, while he could act without restrain before the students, he would be better off keeping a lower profile before a boss-like figure like the camp commandant.
“Ling Jiu, if it’s convenient for you, can I help you appraise the Rainbow Snake?” The camp commandant said with interest.
“Of course!”
Ling Jiu nodded, and with a wave of his hand, he took out the Rainbow Snake.
