Chapter 67 Another Encounter

On the ground, the corpses of the iron-armed apes were scattered everywhere.

Chen Yiming killed 11 of them, Wang Jianyan killed 23, and the other team members killed 15. The transport team had killed a total of 49 iron-armed apes.

“Hurry up and tie up the corpses with string. Let’s drink and celebrate tonight,” Wang Jianyan said loudly, his face relaxed.

“That’s great!”

“We can drink!”

When the team members who were using string to tie up the corpses heard that they were going to drink and celebrate, they immediately became energized and sped up their movements.

Under normal circumstances, when in the wilderness, the transport team would not be allowed to drink unless there was something to celebrate.

“Chen Yiming, the speed at which you are adapting to the situation really surprises me. To be able to deal with an iron-armed ape who has undergone five transformations head-on, as long as you don’t deliberately provoke the leader of the mutant beasts who has undergone six transformations, you shouldn’t be in any danger on the outskirts of the Nuhe Mountain Range.

Next, I have to guard the convoy myself. If you want to continue hunting the mutant beasts, you can enter the mountains with Wei Chaoyuan. You can take care of each other,” Wang Jianyan instructed.

Wei Chaoyuan shrugged and said with a smile, “I was busy blocking the escape of the iron-armed apes earlier, and didn’t even get the chance to warm up my muscles. With Brother Yiming as my partner, I believe the outskirts of the mountain range will definitely become our hunting ground.”

“Alright. I think so too.” Chen Yiming nodded.

This was his first time hunting mutant beasts, so merely a dozen or so iron-armed apes were insufficient for him to enjoy the hunt. Moreover, he had many trump cards hidden away, so he wasn’t afraid of any of the mutant beasts in the outskirts of the mountain range.

It was evening

In the Star Moon Bar of Yongluo Town, many people came to relax after returning from hunting. This was because those who had been hunting in the mountains for a long time would easily feel depressed.

“Did you guys hear? The people from the Anteng Transportation Company made a huge mistake today. The people from the Heavenly Crane Fist School are going to be so mad.”

“What’s wrong? What happened?”

“Don’t you know? It wasn’t easy for the Heavenly Crane Fist School to lure the king of the iron-armed apes into a duel with the red striped bears. They didn’t expect that someone would raid the nest of the iron-armed apes in the meantime.”

“Will the people from the Heavenly Crane Fist School be able to take this lying down? Are they going to demand an explanation from the other party?”

“Do you think hunting mutant beasts is child’s play? Do you think you can make someone spit out what they have already eaten?”

“This… if your fist is hard enough, it should work out.”

“Haha, the problem is that their fists aren’t as hard as others. Otherwise, why would they need to lure the ape king away?”

Several customers who had come to the bar to relax chatted about what had happened in the mountain range that day, which immediately attracted everyone’s attention.

The Heavenly Crane Fist School was a medium-sized martial arts school in Nightwater City on the west of East Lake City. Only the head of the school had reached the level of the sixth transformation. As for the An Teng Transportation Company, other than Wang Jianyan, they had two other experts who had reached the level of the sixth transformation.

In a corner of the bar, six men and women in tight-fitting clothes were sitting around a table. On the table was a pot of yellow wine. The wine had been served for a long time, but it had not been touched.

They were the group from the Heavenly Crane Fist School that the customer beside them had mentioned. Because they were outside and did not wear the training robes from the martial arts school, no one recognized them.

“These people are too much.” Duan Xuejing bit her lower lip and grabbed the sword by the table.

“Junior Sister Xuejing, don’t be rash,” Liu Minghua quickly held down her sword and whispered.

“Senior Brother Liu, how can I tolerate this? Master is magnanimous, but that doesn’t mean he can be slandered at will,” Duan Xuejing said angrily.

“What they said is the truth,” Liu Minghua thought to himself as he kept a calm expression on his face.

In the wilderness, strength was everything. The fist was the rule. The strong would not give face to others, and the weak would need to know how to bow their heads.

“Junior Sister Xuejing, luck is also a part of strength. Our Heavenly Crane Fist School has always been open and transparent when it comes to doing things. Master has always told us this.

In the end, we were just too unlucky. If we continue arguing with others, it will ruin the reputation of the school,” Liu Minghua said to persuade her.

At the same time, he thought helplessly to himself, “Master is too old. His body is far inferior to when he was young. I don’t have the confidence that he can deal with Wang Jianyan, who is at the same level as him.”

“Senior Brother Liu, I understand. I won’t hold it against them today.” Duan Xuejing took a few deep breaths.

…

Around 9 pm at night, the sky was cloudless and the moonlight was reflected on the river’s surface, shining brightly.

After a simple celebration, Chen Yiming, Wei Chaoyuan, Xiong Kai, and Guo Hao headed into the mountains to hunt.

The group did not have an expert who had undergone six transformations. Therefore, they did not intend to openly attack the mutant beasts as they did during the day. Instead, they found a place by the river and waited for the beasts to come and drink water. They would attack the lone beasts.

Guo Hao was the weakest of the group and had been doing miscellaneous tasks for the team. After he had asked repeatedly, Chen Yiming felt that he would be strong enough to deal with any danger by himself and agreed to bring him along

“We’ve waited for nearly an hour, but there isn’t even a shadow of a mutant beast.” Chen Yiming sighed, the excitement from before the hunt dying down.

“Brother Yiming, this is the norm when hunting mutant beasts. How can there be so many mutant beasts lurking everywhere for you to kill as you please? Unless it’s deep in the mountain range,” Wei Chaoyuan said with a laugh.

“Deep in the mountains…” Chen Yiming muttered under his breath.

“Brother Yiming, why do you seem to be even more impatient than me? Sometimes, we won’t encounter a single mutant beast even if we stayed up all night. It’s very common. That’s why I suggested killing those iron-armed apes during the day,” Xiong Kai said with a laugh.

Mutant beasts lived in the wilderness all year round, so their sense of smell was much sharper than that of humans. Once they sensed something amiss, they would not show themselves easily.

“Brother Chen, I heard that during the day, you took down half of Boss Wang’s prey alone and with just a single slash. How did you manage your cultivation so well?” Guo Hao asked in admiration.

“Guo Hao, do you have any common sense? Brother Yiming is a core disciple of the Mantis Snake Sword School. Cultivating the Mantis Snake Sword Technique, a technique that leads straight to the warrior realm, is naturally not something that ordinary people who have undergone three transformations can compare with.” Xiong Kai could not help but laugh.

“Brother Xiong, how could I not know? Coincidentally, I also use a sword. Can’t I ask Brother Chen for guidance?” Guo Hao said angrily.

“Martial arts is something you train for. What’s the use of asking so many questions? If you must blame someone, blame yourself for not grasping the basic sword moves earlier when you were young. That way, you could also have entered the Mantis Snake Sword School,” Xiong Kai said directly.

A person’s body would only slow down and eventually stop developing when they were around 20 years old. Before that, the body was still undergoing rapid development, and often, there would be changes every month. It was very difficult to completely grasp the strength of the muscles.

Therefore, in the entrance test of the 13 top martial arts schools in East Lake City although on the surface, one only needed to master the basic moves, there was also a hidden age requirement. They would not consider an adult who was already in his twenties.

Guo Hao kept calling him Brother Chen, but in reality, Guo Hao was already 28 years old. He had barely broken through to the third transformation before his body started to deteriorate. If he didn’t encounter any big incidents, it would be almost impossible for him to break through the sixth transformation.
