*Rooooar!* And with that condensed shout, the Minotaur clambered towards Aeries. On its body, cuts and bruises could be seen visibly dripping blood. But that did nothing to inhibit its movements. “I don't know if it's because it's injured... But I feel something different entirely when I stare at it” There was no longer that kind of fear he felt when he first saw this monstrosity. Then, he remembered shivering and camouflaging himself in the disguise of a tree. But now, although he still felt some sort of fear, it was suppressed with a strong desire for battle... That's right. A complete change of mindset occurred after the battle with the Soul Slime. Aeries did not know about this bloodthirsty feeling that came over him, along with the quest of defeating those in higher tiers than him. “System, what level is this monster?” [Beep!/ Pointer Minotaur. 9th grade of The Demon Beast Realm. Total Soul Points 87,000] “Haha! Come! This daddy here was just looking for a way to increase my soul points” *Mountains as Mountains, First Form!* Almost the same instant he activated his technique, the Minotaur finally reached his spot, and they both brought out their fists to clash. *Rumble, Rumble* Aeries was swept off his feet and barely regained his balance after skidding a few meters. “Humph! Again!” Subsequently, he even initiated the second clash, which again moved him outwards. ————— Unbeknownst to Aeries, far off into the woods, —almost 10 Km, A group of five stood shoulder by shoulder with several 'strange' devices attached to their faces. They appeared to look through this device while muttering softly. One of them, a cute-looking fairy with perfect figures and curved thighs, adorned with clothing the same as those of an emperor's daughter in ancient China— gave out a sigh midway and took her eyes away from that device. That device, to any earthling, can be easily identified as a pair of Binoculars strapped on their faces... Only more modified and ancient -itfied. “What a waste. It's been over ten minutes. If I were, to say the least, I should very much praise his guys if he can hold on till 10 more minutes. Rapier, what say you?” The person she was speaking with turned out to be another girl, she flicked her finger over her nose in an embarrassed gesture, “As much as I would like to commend his strong will for struggling this long. He of all people should know that with his capabilities, beating that Beast is impossible.” “Right? I wonder why men are all foolish and brawny. If I would choose, I want someone with a loving and—” “What unholy nonsense are you both blabbering about, Rapier and Fox Spirit? If you can't find a clue from his movements in the 10 minutes you've watched him, then I pity your aptitude. Your potential might never be expressed and others would surely pass you someday. Look at Prince K, not once had he taken his eyes off that 'Boring' fight” The first speaker's speech was abruptly cut off with an annoyed wave. Realizing she had greatly embarrassed herself, she took on a suave approach. and tried flirting with Prince K... “I-is that so? My Prince C as in, Charming!” To the bystanders, the only thing that buzzed off their heads was a thought, ‘How can you be this disgusting’ Her advances were laid to waste as the Prince did not even have a change of substance, instead, he turned to the last person who have been silent all this while and asked, “Can you feel the difference? Hamman!?” “En. Whatever technique he has, it surely is out of the world. At least it should be one of those 'haloed' Divine techniques.” “I thought so too. Also, coupled with his insane comprehensive speed. He should be able to warp it up with only superficial wounds. This won't do. All the painstaking plans that led to this moment would be for naught” When the other three heard Hamman and Prince K’s conversations, the color drained from their faces, and even their eyes carried a hint of disbelief. “Prince, could you be joking? That monster isn't something that can be defeated. Only those at the Martial Flying Lord Realm would even think of battling with it. I don't believe that brat can defeat it.” The first girl in ancient wear threw her device and sat on the bare ground with a pout. Instead, it was Hamman that answered, “There's no need to think further, he's already wrapping up. I must say, from all the preys that I've feasted on right from advent, this lad is one that I would take the most pleasure in defeating" Prince K took no notice of the bestial nature in the way Hamman spoke, but instead asked, “Can you beat him now?" “Probability with a sneak attack is 30%. If we all go together, I'll bet 80%. That is if you, Prince K, are willing to show us the peak of your strength.” “Hmmph! You don't know what I can do at 100% yet you are already slating my prowess to be that behind from his. Forget it, what am looking for is a chance that gives us a 100%. We can wait, as long as— Oho? To what do I owe this exponential honor, my dignified friends?" Prince K turned towards the skies and made a mock bow while his eyes darted to four places. The rest of his team were befuddled and would've thought he became senile all of a sudden if not for his prestige and the calm look he had on his face. From the four of them, only Hamman noticed something, and as he did, he shuddered and immediately got into a fighting stance, steaks of sweat tickling down his skin. ‘Such presence! Same as would feel when facing a Spirit Monster! and for Prince K to be this calm after seeing them... I should keep away from him. A deadly and sinister person like this is one you should never have as either friend or foe.' At the height of their anxiety, a sigh seemingly rang out from the void, “Prince K huh? I've heard of your prestigious name and your mighty-ish deeds in the Soul Realm... And even in the outside world. Seeing you here today, most of my doubts have been washed away" Cheery Blossoms and snowflakes colored the scene instantly providing a sense of comfort and peace to the observers. [Player name ‘Black Widow’ Soul Points; Hidden] The speaker turned out to be a girl with the beauty that could topple mountains. She rode on a huge Qin and wore a beautiful faint blue Flay kimono, laden with blood-red flap [1] even at that height, one could still see her dazzling smile. Coupled with a perfect face and hair strapped with a twine of bells. These bells singled ever so often in peaceful notes. With a look, anyone could tell she would grow up to be a beauty that could topple kingdoms with a smile. . “Ah! So it's the prestigious Black Widow. Famed throughout the mid realms as the protege of finesse. Both looks and comprehension with the Qin are one in a billion. To grace me with your audience—” “Enough with these fake pleasantries! Do we look like people who desire such?” A male voice muttered softly, yet it rang in all directions. [Player name: ‘Blood Taoist' Soul Points: 78,750] “Well said. Given that I've been blessed with a second chance. I must live for eternity." Another one, a ragged youth with a huge gourd, that he rode on spoke. [Player name: ‘Ghost Beggar' Soul Points; Hidden] “What do you understand? To feel the pleasures of women, to store and spend gold. To find comfort in the bosom of a married woman... To relinquish in the 7 sins! That is life” [Player name: ‘7 Chains' Soul Points; Hidden] “So? Since all the ‘Dark horses ’ are here, shouldn't we start cooping a plan? Prince K” “That's a given. But before then, don't you think we are missing two more?” Prince K spoke in the same footing as them, [Player Name: Prince K Soul Points; Hidden.] “Dark Chibi met with me some time ago, She would be joining the fight directly. In her words, ‘Staying for just a minute with pretentious farts would make me vomit. Just skip the fake smiles with me.” “And Whipping Blade?” “He's still out hunting, He believes in the fisherman's benefits...” Black Widow laughed softly. Her eyes fluttering ever so softly “Hahaha! Don't we all?” “Well, we can commence our plan. On how to kill that dastardly ‘Scourge’ with the most Soul Points.” [1: Tried to look up the specific name for the dress but came up with nothing, my imaginations of Women in the cultivation world just cannot be explained in common sense...
