After some rest, Sam went to the top floor, to see how Philip's inheritance and he was not surprised that the inheritance is already half completed.

Maybe by the dawn the next day, Philip will come, and then would be the time for them to go and claim half of Hawk's inheritance.

Before that, they could deal with another two or three beasts within their territory.

Four of them went hunting.

Meanwhile, the people from the remaining teams are also making their moves in the Northern Arian Team.

They are currently discussing something.

"The Wave inheritance wasn't obtained yet. It was only divided in half and two of them have to face each other to even complete it.

I think we have a chance.

"

The person who went inside the wave inheritance said to his leader.

"Did you say one of them is Hawk?

"

Another person said this, but the leader stayed silent as if contemplating something.

"Yes.

"

"If possible, I advise we don't have any conflict with Sam.

" This made the person who proposed the idea unhappy.

"Why? Don't tell me that you believe the bull** about him killing the emperor? I don't believe it. It is just some hype.

"

"I am not advising you based on that. I am just telling you based on his battle-prowess. Trust me, you don't want to experience how it would feel to battle him. In the competitions, I fought with him directly and I can say that he is not even using a fraction of his strength.

His raw power might not be high, but his usage of the skill set in the most efficient way. I couldn't see that even in our Uncle and his killing intent and bloodlust. It is like facing a primordial beast.

It was as if he even disdained to kill me, but that doesn't mean he could be provoked.

"

The person who is talking is part of the weird trio in the Falcon Cliff city. Yash.

After the test in the marquis city, they disappeared as if the whole competition has nothing to do with them.

It is clear that they only came for the tower of will, but failed.

But Yash couldn't forget Sam no matter what. But that person is having none of it.

"I don't believe he can fight it out with all of us. If my guess is right then both the parties will definitely fight, we can just take them down after they are exhausted.

I propose we move to the thunder god temple's tower and wait there. There are two cases, in one the thunder god temple people will make a move on Sam's team or Sam's team will go after the thunder god temple.

We can fish in the muddy waters no matter the case.

"

Yash tried to convince the team otherwise, but he wasn't able to do so. After the unfruitful effort, they decided to move and hide near the vicinities of the thunder-god temple tower.

At this moment, the people from the thunder god temple are also having a discussion.

In front of them, there is a corpse of Six tailed wind Zebra. A Level-4 beast.

They just discovered the spatial ring that was placed in the spinal bone.

"I think, we need to plan and take down the beasts carefully. The Level-5 beasts are powerful, but I think we should at least take down the Level-4 beasts. They might be at the peak-stage, but I think we can take them down if we try a bit more.

The gifts are too valuable to ignore them.

"

Arthur said to all of them, but even he wasn't feeling extremely confident. Generally, beasts are stronger than a normal person. He is confident that he can fight with a late-stage Great realm cultivator and even if he cannot kill him, he can at least fight to tie.

But beasts in this forest are quite different. Not only they are peak Level-4 beasts, it is being quite hard for them to fight even as a team.

This is inconceivable. But it is happening here. It might be hard, but at least it is still possible.

So, they are starting to plan, but they don't have much information on the beasts. They decided to scout and see what types of beasts are in the vicinity.

Meanwhile, the people from the Northern Arian are moving towards the thunder god temple tower and Sam's group is hunting down the beasts using traps, specifically the swamp and the banyan expanse.

The Arian team led by Andrew, there was also a discussion about the wave inheritance.

"No. We are staying out of it. Anything that has to do with Sam, just leave it to him. Even if we get nothing from this island don't provoke that guy.

"

"But boss, he couldn't make many preparations here, if we can…

"

"I said no. Do you think that it is easy just because he is going to fight with Arthur? There was a time when he even beat the crap out of Arthur along with tens of other people who are as good if not better than Arthur.

Don't try to piss him off. That guy got a temper.

" Only this group stayed put and did nothing but to wait for the inheritances.

That next dawn, just as Sam predicted the metal force inheritance was completed and Philip came out of it.

As soon as he came out, he started laughing out loud.

Sam went upstairs and from what he could see, Philp is now in late-stage Great realm cultivator and his spiritual energy and elemental energy seemed to be a bit different.

When Philip saw Sam, there was a mischievous smile on his face and then he yelled.

"Sam, I am challenging you right now. How dare you bully me all these days? I will take revenge.

" With that, he didn't wait and made his move.

His hands gleamed with a metallic light and his fist turned into a metallic mace and then started glowing read with his fire element.

Turning the hand into a mace, this must be one of the skills, he learned in the inheritance.

Sam was a bit surprised but it ended with just that.

He immediately leaped at him for the battle and after half-an-hour. Sam is panting hard while Philip is sprawling on the floor with both his hands bleeding and his face was swollen. One couldn't even see his eyes.

The remaining three came running and when they saw the whole scene and Philip's face, they couldn't stop laughing.

Particularly, Watt and Jack.

Watt even pokes his swollen face and then started laughing until his abs are hurting.

San healed Philip and said.

"Rest for a while, we need to go somewhere, since you improved a bit, you will come in handy.

"

With that, he also sat in meditation and healed himself.

After an hour, five of them moved. It is only the sixth day and two inheritances are already over. It seems like there would be a lot of time for them to deal with the beasts.

They arrived at the Thunder god temple tower.

Coincidentally, they are also preparing to go for a hunt.

When they saw Sam, Arthur frowned and halted in tracks.

"what do you want?

" He asked vigilantly.

Sam didn't reply and gestured for Hawk. Hawk pointed at the guy who has an inheritance and said.

"You know, why I am here. I want to challenge you for a fair duel. The winner takes the inheritance.

"

That guy looked at Arthur asking him what to do.

"Is it possible for me to buy that?

" Arthur asked Sam. He knew who can call shots here.

"You think you can buy me off? Seems like you didn't do your homework when you came here.

" Sam replied without a direct answer. He just sold the lightning element techniques, because when he saw the simulation of the techniques, he felt that they are not of much use to him. He didn't want to lose out in the palace of inheritances and suffer a loss for wasting his time in there.

So, he sold the techniques. But that seemed to have given Arthur a wrong idea about him being materialistic.

"Fair duel, no interference from both sides. Deal?

" Sam counter-offered.

"No killing blows,

" Arthur added.

"Deal.

" Sam agreed. Then both teams took a step backward and only hawk and his opponent are standing in the middle facing each other.

Soon, the battle began.

Sam could notice the change in the fighting style of Hawk. The water elemental attacks he used are now more turbulent and have more power.

He could see a new difference. There is almost a qualitative change in the way his elemental energy operated.

He must say that he was impressed, but what surprised him, even more, is that the opponent is equally skilled if not better. No wonder, they are tied.

Even the system or the judgment mechanism whatever that Murali employed to judge the whole test is not able to do anything.

But Sam knew that the battle wouldn't go on like this. Because hawk doesn't have only one element.

He also possessed a wind element along with the water element.

He might not have been able to use the wind elements in the test, but now in a normal duel it is fair for him to use and just like that, the battle was soon one-sided and Hawk won.

The other party was still un-resigned and looked at his teammates for help, but Arthur shook his head indicating his disagreement.

He can only take out his half scroll and hand it over to Hawk.

Sam and his group turned around to leave, but before they did that, he took out his handgun and shot at a corner of the woods.

The bullets penetrated three trees and this made the people present feel odd.

But on the three trees, there are six people waiting to ambush Sam and his team after seeing that he got the inheritance. But now they changed their plans as the cold sweat dripped down their spines.

They didn't expect Sam to discover them that easily and they don't want to expect what would happen if they fought him, just his detection skills are hard for them to fathom.
