I Break through Crazily

Somewhere in the Little Extreme Sacred Land.

At this moment, a team of over thirty candidates was besieging a Level 4 Demon Beast.

It was a Demon Beast that looked much like an elephant. It stood four meters tall, with a massive body, a long trunk, and powerful limbs, giving it a formidable appearance.

Its long trunk could snatch a person into the air and slam them to the ground, killing them. A single stomp from its iron-like hooves held enough power to crush a person flat. From time to time, it could also shoot water projectiles from its trunk. Anyone hit by these projectiles would bizarrely dehydrate and die, turning into a desiccated corpse. It was an incredibly dangerous creature.

Although it was only a Level 4 Demon Beast, this ’elephant’ was far more powerful than an ordinary one. The team of over thirty candidates had been fighting it for nearly half an hour without success, and several of them had already been injured.

”Xiaowu, Xiaoliu, take a few people and attack its lower body.”

”Hongyuan, those of you with longswords, attack its tail!”

”Xuelin, Dafeng, you two keep its trunk busy! Don’t let it harm our people.”

”Everyone else, attack its belly with me! Its Defense Power is high, but we just opened a gash on its stomach. Through that wound, we will definitely be able to slay it!”

Among the thirty-plus candidates, a man with strikingly handsome features and hair as long and flowing as a woman’s was directing the group.

The handsome candidate’s commands were orderly and methodical, bringing out the maximum Combat Power of every person. He assigned each candidate a role, allowing them all to play to their strengths.

If not for this handsome candidate’s competent leadership, they would have been lucky to avoid any deaths against such a powerful Demon Beast, let alone kill it. As it was, only a few candidates were injured, which had no real impact on the battle’s outcome.

SHING! SHING! SHING!

ROAR!

Longswords hacked at the ’elephant’ Demon Beast’s tail while a barrage of powerful fists rained down on its belly. The onslaught of attacks made the ’elephant’ Demon Beast howl in pain.

Under the assault of over thirty candidates, after a short while, the elephant Demon Beast finally collapsed, unable to withstand the attack any longer, despite its powerful body.

A large hole had been torn open in its belly, from which blood flowed ceaselessly. Its tail was severed into several pieces and its trunk was covered in wounds. It was a miserable sight.

Seeing that the ’elephant’ Demon Beast had finally died under their combined assault, the thirty-plus candidates all broke out in cheers, overjoyed.

”We killed another one! Brother Bin, your leadership is amazing!”

One candidate happily gave a thumbs-up to the long-haired, handsome young man called Brother Bin, his voice full of admiration.

”Not at all, not at all. It’s because you brothers are all so skilled.”

The long-haired, handsome young man called Brother Bin waved his hand, speaking with great modesty.

”Brother Bin, don’t be so modest. If it weren’t for you, how could we have killed so many Level 4 Demon Beasts on the very first day? We all know that with our level of strength, if we had faced such a powerful Level 4 Demon Beast without you, Brother Bin, we might have been able to kill it, but we would have lost at least a few people. It would have been a pyrrhic victory at best. But with your leadership, only a few of us are injured. No one died, and we finished it off so quickly! Brother Bin, how can you say this isn’t your achievement?”

”That’s right, Brother Bin, stop being so modest! Before I joined this team, I was with another group. We also had over thirty people, but fighting a Level 4 Demon Beast was an incredible struggle. It was nothing like how easy it is with your team. In fact, that team was completely wiped out by a single Level 4 Demon Beast. I was the only one who escaped. By comparison, your leadership is truly incredible, Brother Bin.”

”Being led by Brother Bin is our good fortune. In seven days, we’ll definitely complete our mission, and we’ll all enter the West Mansion together for sure.”

”That’s right! We’ll all enter the West Mansion together!”

”I don’t care, from now on, Brother Bin is my boss. Even after we enter the West Mansion, he’ll still be my boss! If we stick with Brother Bin, we’re guaranteed a good life!”

”Stick with Brother Bin for a good life!”

”Brother Bin! Brother Bin! Brother Bin!”

The candidates all began to shout in unison, their admiration for the candidate named Brother Bin clear for all to see.

Brother Bin inwardly savored the crowd’s adoration and enjoyed the feeling of being praised. After basking in their cheers for a few minutes, he finally waved his hand and said with feigned modesty, ”Ah, the World is vast, and there are countless people more skilled than I am. This little bit of ability is nothing. Alright, that’s enough of that. Let’s hurry up and extract the Demon Beast Crystal, then we can go challenge the next Demon Beast!”

”Alright!”

Hearing Brother Bin’s words, the crowd cheered in agreement, looking extremely excited.

’With Brother Bin in command, what Demon Beast couldn’t we kill? It’s only a matter of time before we complete our mission. We might even be able to challenge a Level 5 Demon Beast.’

They knew that the more High Level Demon Beast Crystals they obtained, the better their entrance scores for the mansion would be, which meant more resources in the future.

How could they not be excited, thinking of the bright future that awaited them by following Brother Bin?

However, just as the group of candidates extracted the Demon Beast Crystal and prepared to leave, another team of candidates suddenly appeared before them.

This team consisted of seven candidates in total. One of them looked completely ordinary, with not the slightest hint of a Martial Artist’s aura about him, yet he stood at the very front of the seven.

Behind this ’ordinary person’ was another particularly noteworthy candidate, mainly because he had an extremely punchable face. He wore a look of pure arrogance, as if the words ’I’m the best, I’m the greatest’ were written all over it. You didn’t need to hear him speak; one look at that face told you exactly what kind of person he was.

Aside from these two oddballs, everyone in this team was extremely strange.

The way they looked at Brother Bin’s group was like predators staring at prey. Their eyes were gleaming and their expressions were fervent, as if Brother Bin and his thirty-plus candidates weren’t people, but a pack of wild game or a pile of gold.

’Getting eyed like prey by just seven candidates?’

But that wasn’t the weirdest part...

What Brother Bin and his group found truly bizarre was that after blocking their path, the team of seven opened with the most cliché line imaginable.

”This mountain is my domain, these trees I did plant. If you wish to pass this way, you must pay the toll! This is a robbery! Hand over all your Demon Beast Crystals!”

The candidate who looked like an ’ordinary person’ declared.

”A... a... a robbery?”

Brother Bin was completely dumbfounded. He stared blankly at the seven candidates before him, unable to comprehend what was happening.

’There are only seven of them, while we have more than thirty. And they dare to rob us?’
