Divine God Against The Heavens Chapter 54: Li Yun

Chapter 54: Li Yun

Ye Xiao saw many rank one magical beast on his way. He walked like this for a while longer. The strongest magical beast Ye Xiao had seen was a wounded rank two magical beast.
It was the Flame Eagle.
However, Ye Xiao lamented his misfortune that he was unable to hunt a flying magical beast. It was not that he can not fly. He had the Wings Of The Divine Dragon so he can fly but the thing was that he did not wanted to attract the attention of anybody. If he used the Wings Of The Divine Dragon, he can easily follow and kill the Flame Eagle.
But he didn't want to.
If he did use the Wings Of The Divine Dragon to hunt down the Flame Eagle, it would attract many young genius's attention and it would be difficult for him to gain any advantage in the second round of the competition.
He has to keep some cards up his sleeve for the next round of the competition after all. So he didn't chase it.
After walking for a while, Ye Xiao suddenly stopped and looked at a certain direction.
There is a fight over there!
Following the sound, Ye Xiao rushed there quietly. Pushing aside the branches of big and small trees, Ye Xiao found the place where fight was going on between human figures and a huge growling magical beast.
When he was still some distance away from the place where the fight was taking place, Ye Xiao jumped up onto a big tree to watch the fight from above.
In the woods, there was an emptied grassy field. But the point was that this grassy field was now filled with broken trees and many pieces of its branches. It was as if a disaster befall here.
In that grassy field which was now covered with the sign of an intense battle, there were five teenagers holding weapons in their hands, surrounding two huge magical beast. The body of the magical beast was about three meters long and looked like a ape with a mix of yellow and brown hair.
These two apes were covered with blood all over their body and the five teenagers were also no good. They also suffered from heavy injuries but were still holding on maybe because they saw that both of the apes were also making their last struggle.
Both of the apes were a rank two magical beast and from the look of them, it looked like one was a male while the other was female.
They were rank two magical beast: Golden Giant Ape.
At adulthood, they can become a rank three magical beast.
Although these two Golden Giant Ape were still a rank two magical beast but their combat prowess was equivalent to a martial artist at the peak of Qi Condensation Realm. The teenagers that were hunting them were around the stage five and stage six of the Qi Condensation Realm. It was fortunate that they were in a group and there were five of them or else they would be dead long ago. If there were even one of them were not here, let alone making the Golden Giant Ape feel despair, they can come out alive after provoking the Golden Giant Apes can be consider their good luck.
Ye Xiao noticed that the group of teenagers was wearing exactly the identical cloths as if it was a uniform of some organisation and all had a symbol of black blade on their sleeves.
Ye Xiao immediately identified them as the disciples of a third grade sect known as the Black Blade Sect.
Black Blade Sect was same as the Silver Moon Sect from where Ye Xiao once was a disciple, a low rank sect.
Black Blade Sect disciple Li Yun was a martial artist as the Sixth Stage of the Qi Condensation Realm and he was known as a genius that only comes by once every hundred years.
The Black Blade Sect placed all of their hope on Li Yun and send him to participate in the competition and hoped Li Yun to be selected as the disciple of one of the five great sects so that they can rise and become a second grade sect with his help.
Li Yun was also an orphan. He was adopted by the sect leader of the Black Blade Sect and raised by him with much care. Because of this, Li Yun also wanted to repay him so he worked very hard and the result of his hard work was his current strength which was above average of the same age group.
He participated in the competition with his four fellow sect members who had great strength under the age of twenty.
During the first round of the competition, his group entered the Cloudsmoke Forest together and were hunting when they encountered the pair of Golden Giant Ape. He thought that with his as well as the groups strength, he can succeed in hunting down the both magical beast at once and this way he can even save some time as well as earn more. So, he surrounded both of the Golden Giant Ape with his group and attacked them.
Only after fighting with both of the apes, he understood that he underestimated the strength of the Golden Giant Ape and overestimated his as well as the his groups strength.
From the looks of it, the pair of Golden Giant Ape were making their last struggle but the reality was that his group was at great disadvantage and if the Golden Giant Ape make his move now, there is going to be some consequences and it will his group's loss.
Now, he was still calculating how to escape with his group when he saw a shadow climbing on a big tree some distance away from the grassy field where he and his group was fighting with the pair of Golden Giant Ape.
He immediately understood that somebody came here after hearing the sound of the battle.
