Forbidden Zone of the Human Race

Everyone was angered when Xiang Ning came and stole their beasts, and all of them tried challenging him. But without exception, every single one of them was trampled upon by him without even a chance to counterattack. Xiang Ning was like a humanoid beast, and every time he used his Mountain-Splitting Slash another squad would fall. Not even a tier two beast would dare take it head-on.

“This is the third time you’ve stolen our prey! Can’t you go and steal from others?!” a skinny guy shouted. This was their sixth beast of the day, but half of them had already been stolen by Xiang Ning. They were indignant. They had already challenged him twice, but were soundly defeated each time. They started to doubt their strength.

“Garbage! Can’t you even retaliate? Come, I’ll fight all of you myself! Don’t tell me you’re afraid?” Xiang Ning had stolen more than ten beasts today. His squad was tired, but he was still filled with vigor.

In the beginning, Li Zimo had been worried that Xiang Ning would try and solo everything, but they soon had no objections to it after seeing how he trampled both men and beasts alike. Was this even the strength of a tier one martial artist?

In the final two days, Xiang Ning’s squad had risen to third place. Naturally, Xiang Ning was doing all he could to get first place.

“Fuck you!” the leader swore. He wanted to fight, but he needed to maintain his squad’s rank. “Do you think you should do this?”

“Stop talking nonsense and fight me. If you win, I’ll give up.” Xiang Ning was like a bandit at this point.

“Yeah! We’re in the top ten ranks. You were just letting it slide last time, but now that he’s alone we don’t have to be afraid of anything.”

The squad leader had no choice but to fight now. “You damned bandit. Not only did you not save those in trouble, but you dare rob us?!” He unsheathed his weapon, followed by his squad members.

Xiang Ning applauded. “Good, good! Looks like I didn’t underestimate you. Come, let’s see who’s stronger!” He immediately rushed into them. To be fair, he wasn’t normally cocky like this. He didn’t like to boast, either; he was only faking it so that he could incite them. To think that he had to learn how to do this!

Everyone in Fortress Three was flabbergasted. To think that Xiang Ning rushed into a group to fight alone, but instead of being beaten, he beat his opponents instead! The headmasters of the academies were embarrassed. Their students were like lambs to be slaughtered.

“Attack! If he wins, we’ll lose our rank and become third place!” the leader shouted.

“Not bad! You’ve earned the right to know my name!” Xiang Ning shouted.

“Bastard, I’m Murong Shanhai from Radiant Academy! I’ll surely defeat you!” He was utterly angered.

“Vibrating Slash!” Murong Shanhai shouted as he used his Awakened-level martial technique. As a tier one, nine-star martial artist, his attack was no joke. If it weren’t for them being in the wilderness, he would have advanced and become a tier two martial artist.

Pale yellow waves gushed out from his sword. It might be faint, but it was an excellent attack from a tier one martial artist. Even the headmasters nodded in acknowledgment.

But it was nothing compared to Xiang Ning.

“Mountain-Splitting Slash!” He used his strongest attack. They had seen it a million times, but they were still captivated by it every single time. Every time he used it, someone would fall.

The other headmasters tried to console the Radiant Academy’s headmaster. “Yaoguang, your student is very excellent. Look, he’s only crouching on the ground. Everyone else before him was already laying on the ground unable to retaliate after taking that attack.”

He could only bitterly smile. Indeed, his student was very excellent. To be able to take that attack and not fall on his back was something that could allow him to boast for a bit. After all, Xiang Ning had defeated countless ‘geniuses’ during the training.

Before Xiang Ning left, he took a look at the sword and the quivering hand of Murong Shanhai that had taken his attack.

“You aren’t bad, but only slightly better than garbage.”

“Fuck!” Murong Shanhai almost spat out blood. He had used his full strength but was still defeated. Was this the difference between the Awakened and Peak Mastery levels?

Xiang Ning just rounded the corner and slowed down. It seems that he was thinking about something. “Hmm… I think I did a great job with my expressions and actions, even though my words were a little too boastful. But still, I can’t quite grasp the essence of how to be unbearable. It looks like I need to improve a little more.”

What he didn’t know was that his words were broadcasted to Fortress Three. Everyone was puzzled.

“Haha! To think that was his plan all along!” Hanwu Academy’s headmaster, Wu Zhishen, said.

“Why would you say that?”

“Listen to what he had said. He wants to incite them so that his opponents can’t think rationally. Every time they fought, all of them were angered beforehand.”

When they heard his analysis, everyone suddenly understood the meaning behind Xiang Ning’s actions. “To think he was this shrewd!”

“I think it’s inevitable. The students are still too young. He’s already caught on to their weakness and exploited it. If that weren’t the case, how could they be defeated so fast and easily?” Wu Zhishen sighed.

“They’re now in second place. To think he’s so strong!”

“Now we can only place our hope on the first place, Wu Rui.”

Zhang Yaoguang suddenly laughed. Everyone turned around and looked at him. Was he mad?

“Wu Rui is already a tier two martial artist. If Xiang Ning wants to win first place, he must first defeat him. Looks like we’re in for a show!” Zhang Yaoguang was excited to see how Xiang Ning would lose.
