Chapter 516: Oriole

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

When Zhao Yu rushed to the scene, Li Rong was already dead.

The surrounding students were very sad and felt very aggrieved.

Especially Xiao Xiao Long, he understood that if he had not bewitched them to come out, perhaps this would not have happened.

He had thought that killing these bandits would be considered revenge.

However, the wounds on his body were difficult to heal.

Zhao Yu shook his head and didn’t say anything. He went to a place where no one was around and began to flip through the secret manual.

Five minutes later, after he had flipped through all three secret manuals, Zhao Yu received a reminder from his Super Brain.

[Discovered cultivation technique: Phantom Step Technique. Do you want to spend 1 Technology Point to learn it?]

[Discovered cultivation technique: Gale Blade Technique. Do you want to spend

1 Technology Point to enter the beginner level?]

[Discovered cultivation technique: Viper Kick Technique. Do you want to spend

1 Technology Point to learn it?]

Yes!

Zhao Yu’s blood and Qi began to surge again. He memorized the circulation of the three different cultivation techniques.

“Over fifty people, few are threshold level enhancer. There is a guy seems to know some modern combat technique and among them one suspected to be an ultimate fighter…”

In the distance, on a tree, a man was watching the stronghold from afar.

He was on the trail of a bandit group, having arrived unnoticed thanks to his excellent stealth skill.

“Three martial arts manuals, plus these weapons and equipment, to face an ultimate fighter…”

“Fortunately, this fighter probably doesn’t know much martial arts!”

The man stroked his chin, pondering when the hunting party would follow the marks he had left and catch up.

Soon, he decided to get closer to note down the group’s specific equipment and strength, as a form of preliminary reconnaissance.

With a leap, his figure floated out, pausing briefly on a tree trunk before flying to the next one.

“Huh?!”

“They’ve spotted me?!”

The man was startled, shocked by the gaze that met with him and quickly turned to run.

After a few meters, the other party was still able to keep up with him.

This was shocking news to him as he had mastered his Lightfoot to a master level.

In the middle of running, he performed a backflip to seize the chance to glance at the person behind him.

“It’s that ultimate fighter!”

What enraged him even more was that Zhao Yu’s speed was not slower than his at all.

No way!

With a shiver in his heart, he realized he could not delay any longer; he might end up dead.

The next second, he forcefully increased his speed which actually became faster by a 30%.

In the blink of an eye, he had widened the distance between them.

After jumping across the tree canopy for several kilometers, the gaze from behind finally dissipated.

“Damn, I have underestimated his speed!”

The man breathed a sigh of relief, grateful that his Lightfoot skill was superior than Zhao Yu.

However, he did not dare to stay any longer and continued to run swiftly in one direction.

Behind him, Zhao Yu stood on a tree trunk, looking in three directions with an ugly expression.

“I have lost to him. He actually escaped!”

He was tallying this trip’s gains when suddenly he was alerted by the Super Brain that someone was approaching them within 100 meter radius.

Without a second thought, he grabbed his knife and chased after him.

Who knew, the other’s speed was so fast that he was left behind in no time.

“Is it one of those bandits?!”

“No, this person wasn’t there during the fight; it must be someone targeting the bandit group…”

Zhao Yu speculated that the bandit group going to Wang Feng Valley for a trade might have been targeted.

A group of about ten people spending over a thousand coins was indeed considered a significant fortune.

Previously, he had obtained quite a bit of information from the captives.

For instance, this area is considered the safe zone, where there are no monster attacks them at night.

All monsters generally stay within their own territories and do not actively invade, rarely attacking humans outside their territory.

Their main danger now comes from humans if they were to stay in safe zone.

There are countless forces like the bandit group, many of which are much stronger.

According to the captives, this area near the boundary road is mostly inhabited by the weaker or relatively weaker forces.

The really strong or major forces are generally closer to the camp.

They did not know the details, only mentioning it had something to do with king-level monsters.

Zhao Yu jumped around the area where he lost track of them, trying to use his vision to scan for enemies.

Unfortunately, he did not receive any super-brain alerts, and it seemed the opponent had truly escaped.

“Let’s go back!”

Zhao Yu had left in a hurry during the chase and hadn’t had the chance to inform his classmates. They must be confused about his sudden departure.

When he returned to their base, all his classmates were hiding until they saw Zhao Yu and came out one by one.

“Zhao Yu, what happened?!”

Cai Shu Ying came out and asked.

“I saw someone was tracking us, but they got away!”

“It’s not safe here. Everyone pack up the spoils and leave as soon as possible. Let’s head back towards the boundary road!”

Everyone immediately became tense, quickly packed their things and hurriedly left with Zhao Yu.

In the forest, a group of people occasionally stopping at a tree to find a mark before continuing forward.

Swish!

Just then, a noise came from ahead.

The group immediately stopped, each drawing the long sword at their waist.

“It’s me!”

A familiar voice sounded.

Then, a slender man emerged.

“Guo Yang, what are you doing here?!”

The group recognized the familiar face.

“Weren’t you tailing our targets?”

A muscular man with a black mole on his face, frowned and asked.

“Brother Ma, don’t mention it. The easy target I was tracking got snatched away by someone else!” Guo Yang spread his hands helplessly.

“What?!”

The group was quite astonished.

Ma Zhao, the leader of them growled, “Who’s so bold to rob from the Eight Desolations Alliance?!”

“There was an ultimate fighter with incredible Lightfoot martial art skill, possibly mastered near to my level…”

Guo Yang said with lingering fear.

His own strength was average, surviving so far solely because of his well-practiced Lightfoot martial arts, which allowed him to stand with these people.

“An ultimate fighter?!”

Ma Zhao’s expression became serious. Ultimate level fighters were not to be underestimated. He asked in a deep voice, “How many ultimate fighters are there, and what martial arts do they know?”

“Just one, and I only witnessed his Lightfoot martial arts. I didn’t see any other martial arts…” Guo Yang shook his head.

“Just one…”

Ma Zhao relaxed after hearing that and inquired further.

Upon learning that the group had over seventy people, including more than twenty women, his eyes lit up.

“There are women!”

“Heh, Brother Ma, let’s make our move!”

Many below him were green with envy, eager to snatch the women for themselves.

Ma Zhao was excited and nodded, “Guo Yang, lead the way. Let’s find them!”

“Alright!”

Guo Yang frustrated from being outmaneuvered, was eager for these men to help him seek revenge.

“Pity, it’s only the seventh squad. If it were one of the top three squads, we’d be set…”

” With two ultimate fighters, we should be fine.”

Soon, they returned to the base only to find it deserted.

“They’ve already run off!”

“From the looks of it, they ran this way!”

“What are we waiting for? AFTER them!”

The group set off without pause, following the direction Zhao Yu and his people had taken..
