Chapter 162: Mortal Combat

Xiang Ning weaved between the beasts and supported anywhere that needed reinforcement. But because he used too much Mental Power fighting the Tyrant Spiders, he tried to conserve as much of his strength as possible.

While the region with the Tyrant Spiders was safe for now, there were still thousands of beasts on the battlefield. The human side was hanging on for dear life.

The fastest method to end the stampede was to kill the Beast Generals. But that had nothing to do with Xiang Ning. A tier four beast was no easy thing to kill. He would be an idiot if he were to go and fight against one. Plus, the beasts were under the influence of Balamu. He would just be courting death.

Instead, he focused on earning Fury Points, although he was careless a few times and taunted more beasts than he intended. To his dismay, the beasts wouldnt stop chasing him even if he were to run away. He had no choice as he couldnt control his voice over the battlefield to limit the number of beasts he taunted.

On the battlefield, Wu Rui wondered what kind of grudge Xiang Ning had with the beasts? Why was he so adamant about killing them? Based on how he looked, it seemed that he wanted to kill every single one of them.

Suddenly he saw an extremely weird scene. In a battle, one would be killed the moment their back was shown to the enemy. But now he saw someone running like crazy across the battlefield dodging the attacks of the beasts. Just behind him, many beasts were hot on his trail. Further back were groups of martial artists killing the beasts that were chasing that one man.

But even as the beasts died, none of them turned back toward the group of martial artists. It was as if all of them had a personal grudge against that man in front.

By experiencing the battle, Xiang Ning had broken through into a tier two, seven-star martial artist. His strength was now around the average strength of martial artists on the battlefield. Martial artists that were tier three and above would be fighting against beasts that were much more dangerous, like Tyrant Spiders and Night Cats.

He had also earned fifty-three thousand Fury Points throughout the fight. He was finally satisfied with the amount. But unbeknownst to him, he was in danger. His taunt had attracted five more beasts, but one of them was a Beast General. The evolution of the Night Cat, an Assassin Cat, had taken notice of him.

Assassin Cats inherited the agility and perceptiveness of a Night Cat, but their attacks were leagues above. If a Night Cat had to wait for an opportunity to pounce, then an Assassin Cat could be standing in broad daylight and could still kill a martial artist; its speed was nothing to scoff at. It was also much harder to hit, as it was smaller than a Night Cat. One of its characteristics was the glowing green eyes.

Xiang Ning was finding his next prey when suddenly he felt a cold chill!

Fury Points +999

He saw the number of Fury Points and was caught in a daze.

He was already activating Combat Instinct and it was ringing the alarm bells in his head. He felt numb in his head and his heart was screaming, so he immediately hit the ground. An eyeblink later, after he hit the ground, a slashing sound tore apart the air from behind.

Xiang Ning barely dodged it; he even saw some of his hair floating down. What the fuck! I didnt do anything, I didnt even kill any beasts! Why did a Beast General target me?! He immediately shot three flying knives toward the beast. But before the knives even reached the target, the Assassin Cat had pounced on him. Xiang Ning had no choice but to block it with his flying knives and Mental Power.

Thud!

He felt like organs were going to be pulverized as he was blown back by the force. He only stopped when he collided with someone else and could no longer maintain his disguise.

What the fuck! Why are you always so battered and bruised when I see you?! Xiang Ning had just crashed into none other than Wu Rui, who had just killed a Boulder Boar.

Xiang Ning just ate two pills and shouted, Run! He slashed his sword towards the Assassin Cat without another word.

You fucking unlucky star! Thats a damned Assassin Cat! Come back! Wu Rui roared. He wanted to help him, but knew he would be dead the moment he stepped in. The Assassin Cat was a tier four Beast General!

Xiang Ning also wanted to run, but everyone around him was tier two. There wasnt even a tier three martial artist. If he were to run away, everyone would explode into a mist of blood in a blink of an eye. Without a martial artist of the same tier, everyone would be minced meat under the strength of an agility-based beast.

Xiang Ning successfully lured it somewhere further. With Keen Observation and three flying knives, he barely managed to dodge its lethal attacks.

Naturally, everyone else saw what was happening.

This is bad! Its an Assassin Cat! A tier four Beast General!

Why is it targeting a tier two martial artist?! Quick! Go find a tier four or hell die! Everyone wanted to help, but they were too weak.

Xiang Ning gritted his teeth as he tried to survive. His Mental Power was rapidly being exhausted and his supply of recovery pills was gradually dropping. He didnt have time to enter the raffle now! He condensed his power and shot out all three flying knives toward the weak point that Keen Observation had uncovered. The strength of the flying knives was on the level of a tier three, four-star spiritual cultivator. They werent something that even an Assassin Cat would want to take head-on.

It didnt want to dirty its fur because of a puny ant.

Xiang Ning, however, didnt retreat, but advanced instead. With his remaining strength, he activated Mountain-Splitting Slash and augmented it with Telekinesis. The slash was enough to carve out rivers and fast enough to leave a mirage.

The Assassin Cat didnt expect that and tried parrying it away with its paws. The claws clashed with the iridium sword.

What a fucking psycho! Everyone saw what was happening and thought that this was the final struggle of a weakling. No one in their right mind would believe that a tier two martial artist could fight against a tier four Beast General.

A cracking sound was heard as Xiang Nings longsword shattered; it was only meant to attack tier three beasts and below. Against the Assassin Cats claw, it couldnt hold up.

Experience Points +3220

The three flying knives found their mark and stabbed solidly into the Assassin Cat.

Fury Points +999

I told you to go back but you didnt want to listen. Still, not bad for hurting a tier four Beast General. Fang Hao appeared behind Xiang Ning and shielded him.
