Chapter 1040: Sky Tiger Demon Hunting Team
Whiz… Whiz… Whiz…
Xiao Yi, Tong Ye, and the third person sped through the air.
A distance of ten thousand miles was covered in no time.
Two groups were constantly confronting each other, their mutual aura clashing, but a real battle had yet to break out.
In the high altitude, fierce auras stirred the surrounding clouds into chaos.
"What are you waiting for?" The young Heavenly Talent who spoke first glared coldly at the burly man in the lead.
"Waiting for you all to make the first move," the burly man sneered.
"Don't let it be said that the Sky Tiger Demon Hunting Team bullies you young brats."
"Of course, I'm also giving you a chance. Hand back the item obediently, and I'll let you leave."
Whiz… Whiz… Whiz…
Xiao Yi and Tong Ye's group arrived just in time.
Xiao Yi's gaze fell on those dozen Heavenly Talents.
Their chests also emitted a shimmering light.
Evidently, they carried the Task Scroll of Black Cloud Academy.
Xiao Yi recognized them, participants in the Black Cloud Academy's examination just like him.
"Hmm?" The dozen Heavenly Talents glanced at Xiao Yi's group and murmured softly, but said nothing.
"What's the matter?" Tong Ye eyed one of the Heavenly Talents, "Qin Yi, did you steal someone's belongings?"
"Tsk tsk, the renowned Illusion Wind Qin Yi appears to be playing the mountain bandit."
"Rubbish, Tong Ye, I'm not interested in fooling with you now." The young Heavenly Talent glared at Tong Ye.
"You know him?" Xiao Yi looked at Tong Ye.
Tong Ye nodded, "I do. Illusion Wind Qin Yi, the Chief Steward of Wind Shattering Hall."
"In the Black Cloud Region, this guy is one of the few Heavenly Talents who can barely compete with me."
"This matter doesn't concern you. Leave now." Qin Yi cast a glance at Xiao Yi's group.
Then his icy gaze returned to the burly man, "Sky Tiger Demon Hunting Team, it's time to settle our accounts."
Sky Tiger Demon Hunting Team?
Xiao Yi slightly furrowed his brow; he had heard of this Demon Hunting Team.
It's one of the largest Demon Hunting Teams in the Black Cloud Region.
In terms of Martial Artist strength, it ranks in the top five.
"Irrelevant people, leave at once." The burly man, the team leader of the Sky Tiger Demon Hunting Team, barked at Xiao Yi's group.
"Better clarify matters first," Tong Ye sneered.
The Sky Tiger also sneered, "This bunch robbed my Sky Tiger Demon Hunting Team's item, it's that simple."
"Don't blame my Sky Tiger Demon Hunting Team for being merciless if you don't leave."
Once the words fell.
Hundreds of meters away, several Martial Artists' auras suddenly appeared.
One path, two paths, ten, a hundred paths; in mere moments, it surged to hundreds of paths.
In other words, hundreds of meters away, there were hundreds of Martial Artists with substantial cultivation surrounding this place.
"So this is what you were waiting for." Qin Yi's eyes turned icy cold, looking at Sky Tiger with murderous intent.
The Sky Tiger Demon Hunting Team already had hundreds of Martial Artists here.
Now, adding the hundreds surrounding them, there were nearly seven hundred Martial Artists.
The Sky Tiger Demon Hunting Team had been delaying their move, likely waiting for these reinforcements.
However, Xiao Yi's side seemed neither inferior in the least.
Whiz… Whiz… Whiz…
Dozens of figures suddenly emerged from all directions.
In just moments, dozens of young Heavenly Talents landed here.
"Oh, what a grand setup."
"We were following the Task Scroll's guidance, didn't expect to stumble into something big."
"Are we supposed to fight now? Get on with it."
The dozens of Heavenly Talents talked among themselves, eyes full of battle intent.
Clearly, these dozens of Heavenly Talents were also participants in the Black Cloud Academy's assessment.
And like Xiao Yi's group, they too were guided by the Task Scroll.
"Who are you all?" Sky Tiger's face turned cold, sensing that none of these Heavenly Talents were ordinary, each with substantial cultivation and likely formidable real strength.
"Do you wish to intervene in my vendetta with Qin Yi?"
It was the strong battle intent in these Heavenly Talents' eyes that truly made him wary.
He wasn't an ordinary man but the leader of a large Demon Hunting Team, having seen countless people.
Instinct told him these seemingly young individuals were all dangerous rogues.
"Vendetta? It's irrelevant."
"Unless last I checked, we'll be fellow sect brethren in the future? Can't just stand by and watch."
"We can't just watch you bully our few younger brothers, can we?"
The dozens of Heavenly Talents smiled playfully.
Qin Yi and a few of the Heavenly Talents beside him raised their eyebrows, "Who are you calling fellow brothers?"
"Stand by and watch? As long as you're not holding us back, that's enough."
"What did you say?" The dozens of Heavenly Talents were instantly enraged.
"So you're Illusion Wind Qin Yi, huh? I've heard your name, but today, not impressed."
"Interesting, looks like there'll be a good fight today."
"..."
The dozens of Heavenly Talents argued fiercely.
In their eyes, they didn't seem to regard the massive seven hundred-member Demon Hunting Team seriously at all.
"Rubbish, a bunch of youngsters, really think my Sky Tiger Demon Hunting Team is just for show?" Sky Tiger had already turned furious.
"Last warning, either leave now or get lost."
The dozens of Heavenly Talents sneered, unmoved.
On Xiao Yi's side, Tong Ye glanced at Qin Yi and then quickly walked towards him.
"Qin Yi, I have a question. Did you really become mountain bandits and steal their items?" Tong Ye asked while walking.
"No, believe it or not." Qin Yi answered casually, "What are you doing…"
Suddenly Qin Yi exclaimed.
Tong Ye was quick-eyed and snatched the Task Scroll from Qin Yi's arms, then instantly retreated.
Tong Ye opened the Task Scroll and glanced at it; his expression changed.
"Tsk tsk, the task is to annihilate the Sky Tiger Demon Hunting Team."
"Qin Yi, with just you guys, the task difficulty is not small."
"Oh? So this is one of the examination tasks, huh?" Dozens of Heavenly Talents' eyes lit up.
"If I remember correctly, examination tasks can be contended for, right?"
"The more completed, the faster the time, the higher the reward."
"A bunch of brats, seeking death." Sky Tiger could no longer suppress his inner rage.
"Attack, kill them all."
Such cold words came from Sky Tiger's mouth.
Whiz… Whiz… Whiz…
Countless arrows broke through the sky from hundreds of meters away.
"All bow-class Martial Souls?" Xiao Yi glanced around, frowning slightly.
Roar… Roar… Roar…
Beside Sky Tiger, hundreds of figures let out roaring sounds.
"All beast-class Martial Souls?" Xiao Yi's expression grew a bit solemn.
In his perception, this Demon Hunting Team's Martial Artists were all of the Heavenly Extreme Seventh Layer and above.
Among them were quite a few at the Heavenly Extreme Peak and several at the Infinite Sacred Realm level.
That Sky Tiger was certainly a Martial Artist above the Infinite Sacred Realm Third Layer.
To date, Xiao Yi had seen many Infinite Sacred Realm Martial Artists.
He could roughly judge their cultivation based on the strength of their aura.
Such a Demon Hunting Team, cohesive and ably teamed, had formidable overall strength, enough to destroy some major forces and sects.
Of course, this is a proper large-scale Demon Hunting Team.
The Sky Tiger Demon Hunting Team lived up to its reputation.
However, the dozens of Heavenly Talents were no ordinary people either.
"Bring it on."
With countless sky-breaking arrows attacking, the dozens of Heavenly Talents sneered.
Streams of light shot out in an instant.
