“Not bad, finally, a decent looking chap!” After understanding Yang Ling’s identity, the Druid Antalya who had remained silent all this while stood up, “Yang Ling, I want to challenge you!”

Antalya had an icy expression, speaking as he walked quickly toward Yang Ling. The blonde hair on his head moved without the wind, a dark glow pulsing around his hands. The inch-long nails that grew out of his fingers gleamed with cold light.

He had waited for this day for a long time!

This time, rather than say that he had escorted Sofia back to the territory, it was more accurate to say that he had specially come to search for the Yang Ling Sofia had spoke of!

Ever since he had seen Sofia, he had fallen irreversibly in love with the sentimental elf. He swore that he had to obtain this woman after Sofia had succeeded with her purification and became a Moon Priestess.

With his status as a warrior from the divine temple of the Goddess of Nature, as well as the fact that his father is the Chief Elder of the Champa Tribe, he had always gotten what he wanted since he was young. However, this time, he had not been able to obtain Sofia’s heart no matter how hard he tried! Through his investigations, he knew that all of this was due to the lad Yang Ling.

He was a warrior from the divine temple, the son of the Chief Elder of the Champa Tribe, and he is not comparable to a lowly human?

Thinking about how he had stayed around Sofia for the past months, yet was not able to touch even her sleeve, Antalya was so depressed that he could not eat or sleep well. He harbored hatred for his love rival Yang Ling, wanting desperately to tear him into two. Now that his love rival Yang Ling is right in front of his eyes, seeing that he had mercilessly killed his guard, how could he take this lying down?

Challenge?

Looking at Antalya glaring at him with his ice cold expression, then remembering what the Druid he killed had said about how he was not compatible with Sofia, Yang Ling a thought. He had a faint guess as to why the other party would harbor such a deep hatred toward him. To think that Sofia had not only left without saying goodbye this time around, but also brought to him a love rival.

Kill him, or capture him?

Yang Ling’s expression did not change as he looked at Antalya who was allowing his subordinates to insolently cause trouble within the territory, gently taking a sip of his ice-cold rum.

The Druid that turned into a Violent Earth Bear had been killed, while the rest of the Druids had only made rude remarks and not caused any physical harm, their crimes not warranting death. Originally, all he had to do was teach them a lesson; However, since the lad before him was stepping forward insolently, he did not mind sending him to the embrace of the Goddess of Nature.

However, this guy having several Clawed Druids as guards showed that he was clearly not an average elf. Even if he did not care about the other party’s backer, Yang Ling had to consider the attitudes of Sofia and the elf elder. Before the other party’s identity was made clear, it was not convenient for him to deal a heavy blow.

He did not really care about the fact that the other party was his love rival. Sofia was merely upset at the moment, there was no way that she would love this person before him. Yang Ling understood Sofia’s personality more than anyone!

“Hehe, useless lad, how can you call yourself powerful when you killed Krum using some shameful magic. If you are indeed powerful, come fight with me!”

“That’s right, the Second Young Master can already transform into a level nine Lightning Bird King, who’s a match for his snake-shaped lightning?”

…

Even though the Druids were incredibly alarmed that Yang Ling killed Krum who transformed into a Violent Earth Bear with one strike; However, seeing that Yang Ling had not reacted for some time, not daring to accept the challenge of the Young Master, they assumed that Yang Ling was fearful and did not dare take action, all of them taunting Yang Ling.

Young Master Antalya had already cultivated his abilities to the level of a top-notch Ferocious Beast Druid and could transform into a level nine Lightning Bird King. Other than the First Young Master Ducasse training within the elf’s secret realm who’s rumored to be able to transform into a Golden Giant Dragon, not many in the tribe was his match. Even though the magic Yang Ling used to kill Krum was incredibly powerful, not one of the Druids thought that their Young Master would be defeated!

“Transform into a level nine Lightning Bird King? My god, to be able to transform into a level nine Lightning Bird King at such a young age, his abilities must definitely be stronger than an average sage level fighter!”

“That’s right, what do we do? Legend has it that the level nine Lightning Bird King’s abilities are far superior to other level nine Magical Beasts, His Lordship is…”

…

The people engaged in discussion, worried, after they heard that Antalya could transform into the rare level nine Lightning Bird King.

An ordinary Lightning Bird was only a level eight Magical Beast, their abilities not much stronger than a Unicorn. However, a Lightning Bird King that had evolved to level nine had abilities far superior to other level nine Magical Beasts. According to the legends, several hundred years ago, the famous Deity’s Left Eye Troop Team had been exterminated after encountering a level nine Lightning Bird King deep within the Terras Forest.

Back then, the Deity’s Left Eye Troop team not only had a large group of warriors and Spellcasters, but also a sage level warrior and a sage level Spellcaster. However, they were still unable to deal with a manic level nine Lightning Bird King even with such massive battle capabilities. It is imaginable how strong the latter’s abilities were!

Yang Ling’s abilities were deep beyond comprehension, but the legendary level nine Lightning Bird King was too powerful. Seeing Yang Ling deliberate for the longest time without responding to the challenge, even the troops and adventurers that had retreated to the side, as well as the arrogant Druids, felt as though the leader was…

Level nine Lightning Bird King?

Yang Ling let out a calm smile as he saw the arrogant Druids and the worried hunters and townspeople. The abilities of a level nine Lightning Bird King were decent indeed, however, it was only about at the level of the Twin-legged Dragon King. The other party would not have a chance of winning even if he just summoned the Level Surpassing Magical Beast Dark Dragon King, much less his entire Magical Beast army.

Originally, on the account of Sofia and the elf elder, he had wanted to stop after punishing the Druids a little. Since they were unafraid of death, getting more and more insolent as time passed, the other party would not know who the Magical Beast Territory belongs to if Yang Ling did not show a heavy hand!

“How regrettable, my dagger is used to kill, not spar!” Yang Ling let out a cold smile after taking out the Blood Elf Dagger from his Space Ring, then continued, “The Magical Beast Territory has its rules. You shall be punished accordingly for allowing your subordinates to commit murder. A captive has no right to challenge me!”

Captive?

A captive that did not have the rights to challenge him?

Seeing Yang Ling not hold his tongue, the Druids looked at each other, then erupted in laughter. However, soon after, their laughter stopped abruptly after seeing Yang Ling’s figure eerily disappear from where he stood. They all instinctively felt that something was wrong, all of them transforming. However, it was too late!

After letting out a few pathetic cries, the Druids that have transformed into Violent Earth Bears fell onto a pool of blood. There was a deep wound on all of their chests, blood flowing out incessantly.

“You… Die!”

After transforming into a level nine Lightning Bird King, Antalya was furious and alarmed as he saw his guards fall in the blink of an eye. He did not expect Yang Ling’s abilities to be this terrifying. After letting out a roar, he opened his mouth and shot out a thick snake-shaped lightning, aimed straight toward Yang Ling’s head, fierce and accurate.

“Hmph, if you only have such weak abilities, I’ll advise you to commit suicide as soon as possible!”

After letting out a low grunt, Yang Ling tilted his body to avoid Antalya’s lightning. The other party’s lightning was fast, but Yang Ling was not slow either. After having advanced to the level of Divine Wizard, his speed was even faster than the speediest Horned Bee Beast. Even though he was still a little slower than the Unicorn, his speed was enough to avoid a few of those bolts of lightning.

As a precaution, as well as to end the battle as soon as possible, Yang Ling quickly summoned the Unicorn and Chimera King. These two Magical Beasts were enough to deal with the level nine Lightning Bird King. There was no need for him to mobilize the Level Surpassing Magical Beast Dark Dragon King.

Commit suicide as soon as possible?

Seeing the Unicorn and Chimera King suddenly appear, Antalya’s heart shook, not daring to act recklessly. However, he immediately trembled in anger after being taunted by Yang Ling like that. He charged forward without care in his fury, launching his thick purple lightning continuously, all of them aimed toward Yang Ling’s vital spots. Unfortunately, all of the attacks were promptly avoided by Yang Ling, all of the attacks missing the mark!

The abilities of a level nine Lightning Bird King were decent indeed, but unfortunately, he can’t catch up to Yang Ling’s speed, rendering his tremendous power useless! Coupled with the fact that he still had to deal with the attacks of the Unicorn and Chimera King. Soon, Yang Ling obtained the absolute advantage and initiative.

“For you to be this weak even after transforming into an ugly freak, it’s no wonder that Sofia would not look at you, sigh!” Looking at the furious, manic Antalya, Yang Ling shook his head and continued, “An ugly bird without even an inch of hair, you’re not even comparable to a Sharo Boar in heat. To think that you would want to chase after Miss Sofia. Tsk tsk, your skin is much thicker than the average person’s!”

Beating his opponent up physically was not enough if he wanted to humiliate him, he had to attack his soul, then step on him so that he can never rebound!

Furthermore, a rash opponent was undoubtedly much easier to deal with. The more furious Antalya was, the more Yang Ling had to get on his nerves, then take advantage of the opportunity to deal the finishing blow!

An ugly bird without even an inch of hair?

Hearing Yang Ling say this, then seeing the bald buttocks of the level nine Lightning Bird King that Antalya had transformed into, the crowd broke into laughter. Antalya’s eyes turned red in fury, almost vomiting blood. He wanted desperately to pounce forward to grab Yang Ling and tear him to pieces alive. He was completely oblivious to the fact that Yang Ling had scattered a faint dull red powder onto his dagger, then formed an obscure hand gesture.

After instructing the two Magical beasts to attract Antalya’s attention, Yang Ling teleported behind him using the Earth Evasion Technique, stabbing his sharp Blood Red Dagger into the bald buttocks of the Lightning Bird King. In that instant, Antalya shouted pathetically in pain before crashing onto the ground.

The wound is as itchy as an ant’s bite, as numb as being inflicted by snake’s venom, as painful as being prodded by a wooden stick…

In his discomfort, Antalya instantly reverted to his human form, rolling on the ground as he squealed pathetically. Scratching the area, his buttocks became even more bloody, the itch and pain getting more and more intense…

“I said this before, you are not worthy of being my opponent!”

Looking at Antalya scratching his buttocks, unable to restrain himself, Yang Ling let out a cold smile. He instructed the soldiers that had arrived after hearing the news to capture Antalya and his guards to the castle and lock them in jail.
