Following that, the Scarlet Flame Tiger's roars came from the volcano range, which slowly turned into miserable shrieks. Du Feng's attacks became faster and more ruthless. Every few punches would crack the bones in the Scarlet Flame Tiger's body. Then, the tiger would be thrown into the pocket dimension of the necklace to recuperate. When it recovered, it would stay in the pocket dimension and be unwilling to come out.
"Let's go. Let's not watch anymore."
The few female martial artists that were following Du Feng no longer dared to follow him. Because they saw Lady Luluo suddenly disappear, giving them a fright. After that, some male and female martial artists who passed by were interested in what Du Feng was doing. However, when they heard the miserable shrieks of the Scarlet Flame Tiger, they chose to avoid him.
After staying in the volcano range for a period of time, Du Feng returned from a rewarding journey and hurried to the Thunder City's defense. He was in a rush to obtain 100,000 contribution points to exchange for the opportunity to challenge the Earth List. He was even more anxious to exchange for Yin Essence Stones. Previously, he had only obtained a few Yin Essence Stones from the five Fire Fox Chief tails. It was simply not enough.
This time, he could use the large amount of contribution points he earned to exchange for some Yin Essence Stones.
"Look, that person is back."
"That's right. Don't tell me he obtained another 10,000 contribution points?"
Everyone started discussing when they saw Du Feng. Previously, he had earned over 10,000 contribution points in one go, shocking everyone. This time, he had returned after such a long time. They wondered what kind of surprise he would bring.
"Don't get too excited. This time, he accepted the Scarlet Flame Tiger mission. One contribution point per kill is nothing."
Some people knew that Du Feng had accepted the Scarlet Flame Tiger mission. That thing was different from the Fire Fox Chief. Although it was difficult, it was only a level-6 mission. Killing one would earn one contribution point. Bringing back the inner core would earn another contribution point. In total, it was only two contribution points.
"What do you know? A Scarlet Flame Tiger's hide is worth 500 contribution points. I only managed to obtain one last time, but it was a pity that it was a little damaged."
Indeed, there were still people who understood. Bringing back a Scarlet Flame Tiger's hide that was more than 90% complete would earn 100 contribution points. Bringing back a Scarlet Flame Tiger's hide that was more than 100% complete would earn 500 contribution points. This person had once hunted a Scarlet Flame Tiger and brought back a tiger skin that was more than 90% intact. He had successfully obtained 100 Contribution Points. For this reason, he even tried to hone his martial arts skills. Unfortunately, he was never able to achieve a perfect tiger skin.
Therefore, fighting would always bring about injuries. Even if the tiger's nose and ears were slightly injured, it would not be considered a complete tiger skin.
"Is that so? Why didn't I know about it?"
"I don't know either. We've never accepted this quest before."
After listening to the martial artist's account, many people began to regret it. If he had known that the Scarlet Flame Tiger skin was so valuable, he would have gone to try his luck as well. The City Defense Department would not be so unfair. How could the Scarlet Flame Tiger, which was harder to kill than the Fire Fox Chieftain, only be rewarded with one contribution point?
Bringing back a complete Scarlet Flame Tiger Skin was worth 500 contribution points. Some martial artists who were good at using poison began to think. He thought that if he used poison to ambush the Scarlet Flame Tiger, he might really be able to bring back the tiger pelt intact. A single piece was worth 500 Contribution Points. Ten pieces would be 5,000 Contribution Points. He was rich!
"Would you like to submit your mission?"
The one who received Du Feng this time was the same young lady from before. When he issued the mission to hunt the Scarlet Flame Tiger, she was put in a difficult position. She thought that she had offended the wealthy Du Feng. She didn't expect the other party to be so generous and accept the mission without hesitation. She wondered how the mission was completed.
"When I entered the volcano this time, I kept hearing the roars of the Scarlet Flame Tiger. Could it be this person …"
"Don't mention it. The Scarlet Flame Tiger's roars were really miserable. I reckon it was skinned."
A portion of the martial artists had recently gone to the volcano region for a mission. They could hear the Scarlet Flame Tiger's screams from afar and were so frightened that they quickly moved away. From the looks of it, it must be Du Feng's doing. What method did he use? He really had to skin the Scarlet Flame Tiger. He wondered how good his skinning skills were and if it was a complete tiger skin. The completeness of the tiger skin determined its value.
"Moving the Scarlet Flame Tiger. Are you able to accept it?"
Du Feng looked at the young lady. Her Cultivation was only at the Origin Realm. If he really handed over the live Scarlet Flame Tiger to her, it might cause a huge mess. It would be troublesome if he killed a few staff members before he could exchange for the contribution points.
"What? Alive!"
The young lady thought she heard wrongly and stared at Du Feng with widened eyes. She remembered that the mission did mention that capturing a live Scarlet Flame Tiger could be exchanged for 10,000 contribution points. Could this person really have captured a live Scarlet Flame Tiger and wanted to exchange it for 10,000 contribution points?
"Please wait a moment, I have to ask."
The young lady really didn't have the ability to hand over a live Scarlet Flame Tiger. This plaything wasn't what the city defense needed. The tiger's gallbladder, bones, heart, and liver were all very valuable, but they had to be harvested while it was still alive. If it was dead, only the beast core and the tiger skin could be used. Hence, the city defense only needed the beast core and the tiger skin. The other items were needed by a special person.
"Senior Yin, your item is here."
"What? Someone really captured it alive?!"
The young lady had just sent out the message and quickly received a response. After receiving the confirmation, she immediately rushed over.
"You, follow this old man in."
The white-bearded old man recognized Du Feng from the crowd at a glance. So the person who caught the tiger that the little girl mentioned was a young man. He looked like a talented person, but he actually had such abilities.
"Alright!"
When Du Feng saw the little girl nod at him, he knew that there shouldn't be any danger. Otherwise, he wouldn't have entered someone else's room so easily. Even if this was the city defense, it wasn't safe. Furthermore, he couldn't see through the old man's Cultivation, so it must have already surpassed the range of the Void Sea Realm.
Du Feng's guess was right. Not only was the old man an expert of the Heaven Seizing Realm, he was also at the fifth level of the Heaven Seizing Realm for Cultivation. Even with such a Cultivation, he would not be able to capture the Scarlet Flame Tiger alive. This was because once the Scarlet Flame Tiger felt the pressure from a Heaven Seizing Realm expert, it would immediately self-destruct.
Cultivation couldn't be too high, and it had to be able to defeat the Scarlet Flame Tiger. More importantly, it couldn't be killed and captured alive. This condition was very harsh. It was precisely because the conditions were harsh that such a high bounty was offered. It was also because the conditions were harsh that no one had completed it yet.
