The three cleared the battlefield and then divided the battle points. Although Zhao Feng had killed the leader, it wasn’t the main leader, so he was only worth five battle points. There was a total of six who were killed by Zhao Feng, including two fourth ranks, two fifth ranks, and two sixth ranks.
Adding them onto the previous ones, Zhao Feng’s battle points had reached over twenty. And according to the rules, ten points could be exchanged for a peak ranked martial art.
Half an hour later...
“We should leave now, it’s not good to stay here for so long," Zhao Feng ordered as he was the team captain.
“Yes,” Huang Qi and Zhao Yufei both agreed immediately, trusting Zhao Feng completely.
Teng! Ceng! Ceng!
The three increased their speed and soon left the canyon.
Two hours later after the three left...
Three black figures flew across the dark sky and landed in front of the wooden shack.
“Leader, eleven men, including Shi Badao, have died, with half of them succumbing to an archer.” The voice of one of the black shadows was cold and expressionless.
“Who dares touch my Desolate Destruction Bandits!?” One of the figures slowly lifted his palm and a powerful air wave ripped through everything in a radius of several meters.
The two black figures felt the pressure, although they weren’t any weaker than the middle-aged man who had just died.
Hong!
The bulky figure waved his hand and the houses in front collapsed. At that moment, the aura from the bulky figure was on par with high tier deadly beasts.
“Lord Desolate!” The other two quasi-Martial Masters hearts jumped.
“Find the killer, I’ll dish back to them what they did to my men ten times over!” the angry, cold voice sounded back in the wind.
At the same time...
Mysterious youths, who were split into teams, took the lives of bandits. Everyone from the Sky Guards Battalion had extreme potential. Under this environment, they grew stronger quickly, but there were casualties as well.
Apart from those in the Ten Sky Guards, seven or eight silver figures merged into the night to calculate the total battle points.
At night, Zhao Feng’s eyesight was still perfect, but considering the fact that both Zhao Yufei and Huang Qi were tired, he decided not to attack. The three found a pretty secure place where they decided to rest with no bandits around.
The second day...
The team of three once again started looking for bandits.
“Eh? What’s going here? Why are there less and less bandits around?” Zhao Feng soon found a problem.
They had scouted around for a long time and instead of meeting bandits, they met other teams.
Huang Qi said thoughtfully, “It must be because the Sky Guards Battalion killed too many bandits last night, and the others have hidden themselves.”
Zhao Feng nodded his head and found this thought very logical. If those bandits hid in the mountains, it would be hard to find them even with his left eye.
“We have to go in deeper.” Zhao Feng still led the way.
At times, he would jump onto trees and survey their surroundings.
Suddenly, tens of miles away, a rainbow colored smoke appeared which attracted his attention.
“It’s the emergency signal from another team!” Zhao Yufei exclaimed.
Go to the rescue!
Zhao Feng was the first one to sprint off in that direction, but his expression changed as he opened his left eye. The group that was in danger was Lu Xiaoyu’s. The eight youths of the Sky Guards Battalion were surrounded by a group of fifteen bandits.
There were two black-clothed bandits that had reached the quasi-Martial Master rank and three third ranks, while the rest were at the fourth and fifth rank.
At this moment, both sides were battling each other, but the youths couldn’t charge out. Luckily, a group of four that were nearby raced over, giving them a bit of hope.
Sou— Sou— Sou—
But right at this moment, three or four bandit archers hiding in the forest shot their arrows.
Ahh!
A few of the Sky Guards Battalion members were injured.
Cloud Swaying Fist!
Lu Xiaoyu forced the bandits back with his peak ranked martial art, which had been trained to the peak level. But he couldn’t kill them, as one of the quasi-Martial Masters was keeping him busy.
“Boss! There’s three more brats coming," an archer in hiding in the woods told the two black-clothed figures.
The three that came were Zhao Feng’s team.
Through his left eye, Zhao Feng analyzed the straightest path and gradually closed in. When he was within one hundred yards, Zhao Feng suddenly stopped and took out his bow.
Sou—– Sou— Sou—
Zhao Feng continuously pulled his bow and perfectly shot the archers hiding in the woods, giving Lu Xiaoyu’s team time to get in a few breaths.
Kill!
The bandits and the youths engaged in battle. With Zhao Feng and the other team joining in, the Sky Guards Battalion side gradually had the advantage. The youths became braver and braver as time went on.
“A bunch of brats! All of you stay!” a deep cold voice resounded from the forest.
Shua!
A great pressure came from the other side of the forest, which made the heart of the youths’ jump. The owner of the voice was a one-eyed man wearing a black cloak.
“Not good, it’s a Martial Master!” Lu Xiaoyu’s face turned pale as his heart twitched.
The person coming was the boss of bandits.
“Brats! Die…" the one-eyed man flew over and his aura made the youths unable to breathe.
Breaking Wind Palm!
With a sound as loud as thunder, the palm headed straight towards Lu Xiaoyu.
“Everyone, block it!” Lu Xiaoyu exclaimed, and he combined forces with Li Ziwen to block the attack.
Peng—-
The explosion caused a wave of air that pushed through everything in its path, including Li Ziwen and Lu Xiaoyu, who were sent seven to eight meters back.
Wah!
The two who had taken the hit head on, Lu Xiaoyu and Li Ziwen, both spat out a mouthful of blood. These two were ranked fifth and seventh in the Ten Sky Guards, and their strength was around quasi-Martial Master. But even the two of them, with the help of many other sixth ranks, weren’t able to block this one move.
“Zhao Feng, Lu Chen! Come and help!” Lu Xiaoyu shouted and asked for help from Zhao Feng and the leader of the other group.
The teams were all led by at least one of the Ten Sky Guards and at this time, including Zhao Feng and Lu Chen, there were five of the ten Sky Guards Present.
Beng—-
Zhao Feng pulled the string of his bow from far away and he put his Inner Strength into it, the power of this arrow could harm the lives of quasi-Martial Masters.
Illusion Wind Blade!
The other leader used his perfect high ranked martial art and attacked from the back.
Cloud Shattering Fist!
Lu Xiaoyu immediately used a fist skill, while Li Ziwen next to him used a sword.
The attack of the five great geniuses reached the one-eyed man.
“Where did these geniuses come from?” the one-eyed man exclaimed and at the same time, he circulated his frenzied Inner Strength.
Blang!
Zhao Feng's arrow snapped into pieces.
Dong– Dong— Dong—
All the attacks were blocked and once again, the Sky Guards were sent flying.
“What strength!” Zhao Feng was pretty shocked.
A Martial Master could release his Inner Strength and create long range attacks. If any one of them was to face him alone, they might lose their lives in two moves.
At this time both Lu Xiaoyu and Li Ziwen had received light injuries. The Inner Strength from Martial
Masters of the seventh rank could strike like lightning and instantly turn those of the fourth and fifth rank into dust.
Only Zhao Feng didn’t need to fight close combat as he pulled his bow repeatedly and every arrow would fly towards the smallest flaws of the one-eyed man. The full power of Zhao Feng shooting his arrows threatened the movements of the one-eyed bandit.
“Bastard! It looks like the one that killed my men in the canyon was you…" the one-eyed man suddenly turned around with killing intent in his eyes.
“So what if it was me?” Zhao Feng laughed coldly.
“Kill!”
The bandit didn’t bother with the attacks from the other youths and headed straight at Zhao Feng. Zhao Feng jumped up in fright and he immediately circulated Lightly Floating Ferry to escape.
“Don’t run!” The one-eyed man came closer and closer because he was a Martial Master and therefore, he was faster than Feng.
“Shattering Mountain Palm…”
The palm of the Martial Master shot through the air and headed towards Zhao Feng. If it was another cultivator of the same rank, just the Inner Strength alone could kill him, but Zhao Feng wasn’t normal.
Mysterious Wind Palm!
Zhao Feng turned in midair and in his mind, the image of the palm from that girl appeared. He then took a deep breath as an azure glow formed on his palm, and then the two attacks collided heavily.
Chapter 73 – Slaying a Martial Master of the 7th Rank
Boom~
Zhao Feng’s figure was washed away in the wind, but using the power of the attack, he flew out of the range of the next attack of the one-eyed man.
“This palm…,” the one-eyed man stiffened for a second because he felt his force had been sliced up and destroyed.
The Mysterious Wind Palm Zhao Feng had learned exceeded the peak rank. Zhao Feng had only learned a bit of it, but after training the four incomplete Holy martial arts, he found that it was easier to comprehend. In terms of power alone, Mysterious Wind Palm wasn’t stronger than Star Finger, but it suppressed the other skills in terms of profoundness, and adding on the fact that he had reached the fifth level of Metal Wall Technique, he was able to retreat safely.
Zhao Feng’s performance earned cheers from the other geniuses. To be able to take a hit from a Martial Master and retreat unharmed was a great feat.
“You can’t run away boy, I only used sixty percent of my strength just then,” the voice from the one-eyed bandit echoed from behind him.
But Zhao Feng wasn’t fighting alone, there were others from the Ten Sky Guards helping, and soon, the gap between the two grew enough to allow Zhao Feng to once again pull back his bow.
Sou! Sou! Sou!
This time, Zhao Feng used his Archery’s God’s Left Eye skill, which made the arrows arc perfectly towards the bandit leader.
What! The one-eyed bandit found that the arrows swayed with wind and broke through the weakest part of his defenses.
Shua! One of the arrows left a deep gash on his shoulder. This scene improved the morale of the Sky Guards Battalion.
“That guy’s an archer!” Lu Xiaoyu and co. stopped for a second, then they resumed their attacks.
Ceng! Ceng! Ceng…
At this time, another Battalion team appeared, and it was even stronger than Lu Xiaoyu’s team.
“It’s Lei Cong’s team!”
Although they were pretty far away, the bald silver figure could still be seen. Lei Cong was ranked second in the Ten Sky Guards, and he had almost reached the seventh rank.
“Retreat!” the bandit leader gave the order immediately.
His side was already struggling, and with the addition of another even stronger team, they had no chance at all.
“Brat! I’ll take your life any time,” the one-eyed man glared coldly at Zhao Feng before leaving.
“Any time you wish!” Zhao Feng replied and a cold azure light appeared on his left eye as he stared right back at the bandit.
What’s going on!?
The bandit trembled and felt like his heart had been stabbed by a sword, but as he was on the verge on retreating, he didn’t think about it much.
“What was that?” Zhao Feng felt pain pulse through his left eye and found that he had lost a lot of mental energy.
He didn’t know what kind of skill he had used just then, all he felt was that his mental energy had been consumed quickly, but he had also seen the dazed look and fear in the bandit’s eye.
Zhao Feng slowly closed his eyes and found that the green ray of light in his eye had extended to 2.3 meters, infinitely closer to 2.33 meters.
“Good!” he said joyously. Because he had fought with the one-eyed leader just now, his cultivation had increased to peak sixth rank. Now, his real cultivation was the same as Lei Cong, ranked second of the Ten Sky Guards.
“Hahaha…you can’t leave and go as you please!”
From the bushes a kilometer away, a beautiful silver haired youth appeared. The youth looked like a girl and he had a terrifying aura as he stood on top of a tree.
“Feng Hanyue!” The youths of the Sky Guards Battalion exclaimed.
He was a youth fifteen or sixteen years old. He was a Martial Master of the seventh rank.
Seventh rank…
The one-eyed bandit looked shocked and sad at the same time. He was twenty-eight years old when he reached the seventh rank and at that time, he was extremely proud of himself. But seeing Feng Hanyue, all his confidence and arrogance were popped like bursting bubbles.
His achievements were nothing compared to the youth in front of him.
What kind of backgrounds did these kids have?
The one-eyed man sensed that something was wrong. If there were one or two geniuses appearing, it might have been a coincidence. But if they all appeared at the same time, even retards would know something was wrong.
“Illusion Sky Stance!”
A silver glow came from Feng Hanyue’s body and in an instant, he appeared in front of the bandit. The speed made the heart of the boss of bandits shake because this skill was a true Holy martial art, although it wasn’t fully learned yet.
Shattering Mountain Palm!
He didn’t hold any of his power back this time, and clashed head on with Feng Hanyue.
Boom!
The two figures hmphed as they split apart.
“Don’t think you can leave!” Feng Hanyue immediately used an incomplete Holy martial art and chased after the bandit. The two figures, one running away, one chasing, disappeared into the forest.
Only Lei Cong and Zhao Feng were able to keep up with the two.
“If I can kill this bandit, I can get twenty battle points,” Zhao Feng circulated Lightly Floating Ferry to the limit and unleashed his peak sixth rank cultivation at the same time…
Soon, the figures vanished into the vast forest, leaving behind a bunch of tired youths.
“That Zhao Feng doesn’t seem to be weaker than Lei Cong,” a few youths discussed.
Lu Xiaoyu and Li Ziwen exchanged glances and saw the shock in each other’s eyes. Before they left they had laughed at Zhao Feng’s team, but they hadn’t thought that he would be so strong.
On the other side...
Zhao Feng and Lei Cong tried to surround the bandit from either side while he was tangled with Feng Hanyue. Feng Hanyue had gained some insights into an incomplete Holy martial art and it was a speed one at that, so the bandit knew he couldn’t escape.
“Don’t force me!” the one-eyed leader howled, and used an unknown secret skill which increased his attributes.
Breaking Mountain Unlimited!
The leader exploded with might, and unleashed the most powerful attack that he had as he clashed heavily with Feng Hanyue.
Deng!
Feng Hanyue’s body trembled and fell down onto the ground tens of meters away with blood leaking from his mouth.
Die!
The bandit held
the blood in his mouth down and attacked Feng Hanyue.
“Not good!” the silver figure hiding in the forest exclaimed.
Shooosh!
Suddenly, a faint azure arrow pierced through the bandit's shield of Inner Strength and lodged into his leg.
“Arghhh!” the one-eyed bandit screamed and almost fell down from the sky.
The arrow had hit a nerve meridian point on his leg, and if it wasn’t for his dense Inner Strength, this arrow could have paralyzed his entire lower body.
“F*cking b*stard!” The bandit turned in the air and decided to run away.
The arrow Zhao Feng just shot contained his Archery God’s Left Eye skill, and not only resolved the situation Feng Hanyue was in, it also forced the one-eyed bandit leader to run away.
“You be careful!” Feng Hanyue glanced at Zhao Feng and Lei Cong, then sat down and started to recover.
Soon...
There was only Zhao Feng and Lei Cong facing the bandit, but one-eye's speed was just too high. Although this was the case, Zhao Feng could clearly see that the enemy was on the verge of defeat, his left eye observed the situation inside the bandit’s body. His veins and organs were damaged from the use of his secret technique.
“F*ck, these brats are just too persistent!” The one-eyed bandit clenched his teeth.
Although his speed was high and he knew the surroundings well, he couldn’t shake Zhao Feng off. On the contrary, Zhao Feng was inching closer and closer.
“If that’s the case…” A dangerous light flashed in the one-eyed man’s eyes as he took a deep breath and ate a pill while sitting down.
Ten breaths later, Zhao Feng appeared three hundred meters out.
Sou! Sou!
Zhao Feng pulled his Golden Stairs Bow and used his Archery God’s Left Eye skill. His Archery God’s Left Eye skill could threaten Martial Masters of the seventh rank while he was only at the sixth.
“Die, brat…”
The bandit forcefully suppressed his injuries as he slapped the arrows away and pounced after Zhao Feng.
