Moreover, he had just arrived near Kui City. It appeared that the inhabitants of this city didn't know him well enough to understand his Tenacious Sam personality. To him, enhancing his own ans was more important, so who cared about a minor character like Qiu Lingdu? Even if it was a matter of life and death, he would dare to risk it all.
Wang Zhan narrowed his eyes, observing Qiu Lingdu for quite a while. Then, he patted Hu Xianfeng on the shoulder and gave him a firm look. "Don't worry," he said, "I'm not gambling with my life for fun."
The next second, he stood up and rushed towards Qiu Lingdu. His speed was so breathtakingly fast it made people's tongues wag.
The rush of events left Han Junxiong, at his side, swiftly turning to Hu Xianfeng. He hurriedly asked, "Hu Lao, should we or should we not intervene?"
It was clear to him that without Hu Xianfeng's assistance, Wang Zhan would have a tough ti contending against Qiu Lingdu. The eventual outco could be easily guessed; ultimately, it would be extrely difficult for Wang Zhan to escape unscathed. And even if it ca to a desperate point, what could Hu Xianfeng do if he did step in? If there were even the smallest deviation, Wang Zhan would lose his life here.
Hu Xianfeng's face grew darker as he kept his eyes fixed on Wang Zhan. After hesitating for a while, he spoke, his voice serious, "Let's wait and see. I believe this young man isn't reckless, nor would he gamble with his life casually. We can simply observe the battle for now. If any problems arise, I will step in imdiately. I definitely won't let him die before my eyes."
Even though Wang Zhan and Hu Xianfeng hadn't interacted extensively, Hu Xianfeng was extrely pleased with him. He even saw a reflection of his younger self in Wang Zhan, recalling how he too had been relentlessly determined. This determination had led to significant progress in his own strength, and he had gained fa at a young age in the surrounding areas.
However, as he aged, his strength had gradually reached a bottleneck, and striving for advancent had beco highly challenging. Now older, Hu Xianfeng had beco more accepting. He lived secluded in the forest, not venturing out or dealing with external affairs. Fortunately, the demonic beasts knew to respect him and wouldn't attack him casually, which saved him a lot of trouble.
Although Han Junxiong was still sowhat worried, what more could he say since Hu Xianfeng had spoken? Moreover, if Wang Zhan hadn't rescued him earlier, he would already be a corpse. So, even if he did make a move, it would likely only cause more trouble for Wang Zhan.
Ti ticked away, minute by minute.
In the blink of an eye, Wang Zhan and Qiu Lingdu clashed again. The surrounding trees toppled with a crash, while a Fire Dragon spun around Wang Zhan. But Qiu Lingdu was no pushover either, with energy fluctuations surrounding his body.
In another blink, the two collided again.
Wang Zhan swiftly lifted his Deep Fire Blade, clearly done with wasting ti. He had to use his killing move. After all, he was now at his limit, and his cultivation was rapidly declining. Yet, his robust ntal power still sustained him.
But Qiu Lingdu seed untiring. Apparently lacking any Divine Sense, he attacked chanically, like a robot.
Comparatively, Wang Zhan held no advantage. The only thing he could do was delay Qiu Lingdu or drain his energy to so extent. Even if Wang Zhan were defeated, this would increase Hu Xianfeng's odds of victory when he eventually stepped in. Clearly, Wang Zhan had the whole situation under control.
"Fatal One Slash!"
Wang Zhan brandished the Deep Fire Blade in his hand, hacking directly at Qiu Lingdu. A massive blade of light, accompanied by surges of Fire Light, burst forth impressively, slamming directly into Qiu Lingdu.
The sheer intensity of such an attack left everyone wide-eyed. Even Hu Xianfeng was filled with shock. He hadn't expected Wang Zhan to still be capable of deploying such powerful ans.
From this perspective, it appeared that when facing the Cat Demon Beast earlier, Wang Zhan had held back. Even if Hu Xianfeng hadn't intervened, Wang Zhan likely wouldn't have ended up in a life-and-death situation. It seed his interference had been unnecessary after all.
Nearby, Han Junxiong stared with wide eyes, clutching his hands tightly. His face filled with astonishnt, he exclaid, "I didn't expect Brother Wang's strength to be so formidable! Even those guys are no match for him. I really wonder, how did Brother Wang enhance his ans? At such a young age, he can even compare to Qiu Lingdu!"
The mont this attack was launched, everyone knew that even if Wang Zhan couldn't defeat Qiu Lingdu, he was still on par with him. Therefore, once news reached the city, Wang Zhan would inevitably beco a prominent figure, attracting many factions who would desperately try to recruit him.
After all, on the Star War Battlefield, survival was paramount. Although the prevailing principle was to trust no one, powerful factions and teams still existed. These groups ford alliances because they shared common goals: to enhance their cultivation or acquire powerful equipnt. This shared purpose was often enough to unite them, much like the current group of Bounty Hunters.
Hu Xianfeng remained silent, his gaze fixed on Wang Zhan, who was not too far away. Among everyone present, Hu Xianfeng's strength was the most tyrannical; he had even stepped into the realm of a Tribal Patriarch. He clearly understood the full extent of the power behind Wang Zhan's strike.
To everyone else, it might have just seed like a formidable blow. But Hu Xianfeng knew that Qiu Lingdu's strength had also reached the Tribal Patriarch realm. Wang Zhan, however, had not. Yet, he had managed to stand against a Tribal Patriarch with his individual strength alone. This indicated that Wang Zhan not only possessed excellent Talent but also commanded exceptionally powerful combat ans. With ti, this kind of person is bound to beco a shining star on the Star War Battlefield, with limitless prospects. Moreover, Hu Xianfeng was certain that with a little more ti, Wang Zhan would definitely surpass him.
Thinking this, Hu Xianfeng shook his head and sighed. "I didn't expect the young people of today to be so powerful. Compared to our ti, the difference is indeed vast. I truly wonder where today's youth get their determination. Their living conditions are much better than before, and their environnt is no longer as harsh, yet their drive to improve their strength has never faltered. It seems every generation truly does produce its own heroes."
Nearby, Han Junxiong gave a bitter smile. His age wasn't too far from Wang Zhan's, and for all these years, he had constantly tried to enhance his strength, yet he had never reached Wang Zhan's level. The difference between them was too great.
So, this isn't solely an issue of era or youth; it's about the individual. In the end, Wang Zhan's strength is simply too formidable, and his willpower too robust. Otherwise, how could he possibly have obtained such powerful equipnt and reached such a formidable level of cultivation?
With a huge explosion, everyone's attention once again focused on Wang Zhan and Qiu Lingdu.
Inside the battle circle, Wang Zhan stood mid-air, his Deep Fire Blade still tightly gripped. However, Hu Xianfeng noticed that Wang Zhan's hand was trembling, and the Deep Fire Blade was humming.
Not far away, Qiu Lingdu looked sowhat battered. The armor on his body had shattered, and although energy fluctuations still circled him, they were clearly chaotic. It was evident that Wang Zhan's attack had significantly affected him.
For a mont, the onlookers all started to exclaim.
"I didn't expect Mr. Wang's strength to be so astounding!"
"It seems that among the younger generation in Kui City, no one can match Mr. Wang!"
"Forget the younger generation! Even among the older generation, few can compare with Mr. Wang!"
The crowd continued to discuss, their eyes full of admiration.
"As soon as Mr. Wang gets rid of Qiu Lingdu, I plan to follow him."
"There's no deep-seated enmity between us and Mr. Wang. Although there was so friction before, wasn't Han Junxiong also with us then? Since Mr. Wang even let him stay, how could he ignore us?"
"That sounds like a good idea. I also want to stay by Mr. Wang's side."
All the Bounty Hunters started to laugh. Clearly, they believed that as long as they could stay by Wang Zhan's side, they wouldn't need to worry about their safety and could even elevate their abilities. After all, they vividly recalled that when Wang Zhan had defeated the Cat Demon Beast, he hadn't cared about any of the treasures it dropped. If it had been them, they would have certainly started looting. That was a level 9 beast, after all! If they could acquire treasures from a level 9 beast, their abilities would also increase significantly. Therefore, if they saw a level 9 beast, they would even turn on their own kind.
Not far away, Han Junxiong overheard their conversation, and his expression turned much uglier. After sweeping a cold gaze over them, he spoke with a chilly voice, "You bunch of vile individuals want to stay by Mr. Wang's side? What a wishful dream!"
