"That's right, Lisa. I'm Xiaole," Liang Xiaole's voice was filled with excitement.
"Xiaole, it really is you. That's great. I thought you'd left already. I never thought I'd be able to see you here." After confirming Liang Xiaole's identity, the girl called Lisa was also overjoyed. She hugged Liang Xiaole excitedly.
At this time, an extremely wretched looking young man walked in front of Liang Xiaole and the girl who were hugging each other. He said with a smile, "Liang Xiaole, I didn't expect that we would meet again in the forest after being separated. This really makes me feel very happy."
"Hello, I'm very happy to meet you here. I wonder if you're willing to join our team. I believe that with your addition, our team will become even stronger, and it'll be easier for us to hunt magical beasts. Moreover, we'll be able to look after each other in this forest that's fraught with danger." At this moment, a young man in the same tattered clothes arrived before Jianchen and Lisa as he spoke in a pleasant tone. However, when he saw Jianchen's blood-soaked uniform, he could not help but reveal a sliver of surprise. He did not believe that the blood came from Jianchen's body. Otherwise, if a person lost so much blood, they would have become extremely weak already. It would be impossible for them to remain standing there with such a steady expression and such a sharp gaze.
Jianchen shook his head slightly and declined politely, "Sorry, we're planning to leave, so we can't stay with everyone."
Hearing that, a sliver of regret appeared in the young man's eyes. However, he still tried to persuade them, "Fellow students, although the magical beasts here are far too powerful, we have the advantage in numbers. As long as we work together, even if we encounter two magical beasts at the same time, they won't pose a threat to us. I'm sure we'll be able to gather the two Class 1 Monster Cores that each of you handed in very quickly," the young man still refused to give up. He had a good eye. He could tell that Jianchen and Tie Ta were quite powerful.
"That can't be helped. The two of us have already decided to leave this place, so we can't be with everyone. Please forgive us." Jianchen's tone was very amiable.
Hearing that Jianchen and Tie Ta wanted to leave, the young man couldn't help but reveal a trace of regret in his eyes. He simply couldn't understand. There was only one day left before the three-day deadline. As long as they paid two Grade 1 Monster Cores, they would be able to pass. Yet, at this time, Jianchen and Tie Ta actually wanted to leave. Could it be that they wanted to give up on this opportunity?
The young man thought that Jianchen and Jianchen had given up on leaving the forest. He would never have thought that what Jianchen and Jianchen were talking about was actually leaving the second area to go to the third area, and not leaving the forest.
At this moment, Tower's gaze landed on the giant axe in the hands of a burly student. His eyes immediately lit up with joy. He then walked up to the burly student and said in a low, muffled voice, "Hey, I'll give you two Tier 1 Magic Cores. Why don't you exchange your axe with mine?" As he said that, Tie Ta removed the axe from his back, while his other hand pulled out the two blood-stained Grade 1 Monster Cores from his Space Belt.
At this moment, everyone was shocked to discover that the giant axe in Tower's hand was stained with blood. The entire surface of the axe was dyed red with blood. It looked extremely frightening, as though it had drunk countless amounts of blood. What made everyone feel even more incredulous was that this axe, which was made entirely out of iron and was no weaker than steel, was already riddled with holes. Moreover, some parts of the axe had even curled up.
Seeing this scene, most people were in disbelief. Almost all of them believed that when Tie Ta chose his weapon back then, the weapon was already in this shape. They simply couldn't believe that Tie Ta had completely chopped the axe into this shape.
The burly student stared blankly at the blood-red axe in front of him that was riddled with holes, as if it was condensed from blood. He was at a loss for what to do. When the other students heard Tie Ta's request, their eyes immediately lit up. They looked at the burly student with envy, as if they couldn't wait to exchange their weapons with Tie Ta.
"Fellow student, I'll use the sword in my hand to trade with you." A student holding a giant sword came in front of Tie Ta and said with a smile.
Hearing this, Tie Ta looked at the huge sword in the student's hand, then shook his head and said, "No, I still prefer using axes."
Hearing this, the student's face was filled with disappointment. At this time, the two Class 1 Monster Cores were more important than anything else. Not to mention him, if it was possible, even the other students would be willing to exchange their weapons with Tie Ta for the two Class 1 Monster Cores. Even if their weapons were more valuable than the two Class 1 Monster Cores, they wouldn't hesitate.
The burly student wasn't stupid. After being stunned for a moment, he immediately exchanged the axe in his hand with Tie Ta with a face full of joy. Who wouldn't be willing to do such a profitable trade?
After Tie Ta used two Class 1 Monster Cores to exchange for an axe, everyone immediately looked at Tie Ta in a different light. Some of the smarter people had even linked the axe to Tie Ta's current state. From this point alone, it was enough to prove Tie Ta's extraordinary strength. Otherwise, how could he casually take out two Class 1 Monster Cores? After all, this wasn't the outside world. Before coming to the forest, the academy had already taken away all the storage devices of the students. Even their bodies had been carefully searched. It was impossible to bring in a monster core from the outside world. There was only one way to obtain a monster core here, and that was to hunt magical beasts.
However, there was still one thing that everyone couldn't understand. Since Tie Ta and Jianchen had the strength to hunt magical beasts, why did they leave before three days had passed? After all, the academy's rules stated that they had to survive in the forest for three days and hand over two Class 1 Monster Cores to pass. Both were indispensable.
"Could it be that he doesn't care about the reward at all? Or was he just lying to us when he said he was leaving? Is it really because he doesn't want to hunt magical beasts with us?" Everyone could not help but think like that. As soon as they thought of that, some people immediately looked at Jianchen and Tie Ta with dissatisfaction.
Jian Chen did not care about everyone's expressions. He looked at Liang Xiaole, who was hugging another girl, and said, "Liang Xiaole, since you've found your friends, why don't you stay with them? It'll be better if there's more people."
Liang Xiaole slowly separated from the girl. She glanced back at Jianchen and Tie Ta before nodding gently, "Then be careful."
Afterwards, Jianchen and Tie Ta didn't stay any longer. They directly left.
Once the two of them had left, the girl called Lisa asked with some dissatisfaction, "Xiaole, who are they? Why are they so arrogant, refusing to stay with us?"
"Lisa, you've misunderstood them. It's not that they don't want to stay with us. They really do want to leave," Liang Xiaole explained.
"That can't be!" Lisa's face was filled with disbelief. "Lisa, seeing that they can casually take out a Class 1 Magic Core, this means that the two of them already have the strength to kill a Class 1 Magic Beast. Moreover, they just used two Class 1 Magic Cores to exchange for weapons with us. This action clearly shows that they want to continue fighting. How could they possibly leave this place?"
"That's right. Xiaole, you've probably been tricked by them," a young man added from the side.
Liang Xiaole smiled, "They do want to leave, but they didn't explain it clearly to you. They want to leave the second region and head to the third region to hunt Class 2 Magical Beasts."
"What! Liang Xiaole, are you kidding me? They want to head to the third region to hunt Class 2 Magical Beasts? How could that be possible? "
"Could it be that they've attained the Saint Realm? But that doesn't make sense. If they possess the strength of a Saint Realm expert, then why would they exchange weapons with us?"
"The two of them are really courting death. They actually want to head to the third region."
"They're purely courting death."
…
As soon as Liang Xiaole finished speaking, it caused the others to discuss animatedly. Without exception, no one felt that Jianchen and Tie Ta would be able to survive in the third region.
Lisa held Liang Xiaole's hand and asked with a tone of obvious disbelief, "Xiaole, they wouldn't really go mad and head to the third region, right?"
Liang Xiaole nodded, "Exactly. They really do intend to head to the third region. Lisa, you must not underestimate them. They're actually very formidable." Liang Xiaole had a serious expression on his face.
"Could it be that they've attained the Saint Realm?" Lisa spoke with surprise. The academy had clearly stated that those who had attained the Saint Realm had to head to the third region. It was utterly impossible for them to appear in the second region.
Liang Xiaole shook his head, "No, they haven't attained the Saint Realm because they haven't condensed a Saint Weapon at all."
The surprise in Lisa's eyes grew when she heard this. It was already extremely difficult for those below the Saint Realm to survive in the second region, let alone the third region. After all, the Magical Beasts in the third region were all Class 2 Magical Beasts, and they were much stronger than the Class 1 Magical Beasts in the second region. The two regions couldn't be compared at all. Even those who'd condensed a Saint Weapon and attained the strength of a Saint Realm expert would find it extremely difficult to kill a Class 2 Magical Beast. It required a few people to join forces to deal with one.
Lisa was a very good friend of Liang Xiaole, so Liang Xiaole didn't hide anything from her. He lowered his voice and said, "Lisa, let me tell you. Yesterday, I saw the two of them kill over 70 Magical Beasts in a short period of a day."
Lisa turned pale with fright when she heard this, and she exclaimed, "What!? Xiaole, you're not joking, right? The two of them killed over 70 Magical Beasts in a single day. " Lisa was extremely shocked. She didn't suppress her voice at all, and when she finished speaking, her voice grew louder and louder. As a result, the other eight people heard her clearly. Immediately, everyone's expressions changed, and they quickly thought of Jianchen and Ye Ci who came with Liang Xiaole, and then they all revealed expressions of disbelief.
"Lisa, what are you talking about? The two of them killed over 70 Class 1 Magical Beasts in a single day." A young man asked. He didn't believe that the 'two of them' referred to Jianchen and Ye Ci who they'd just met.
