A group of people gathered at the entrance of the Hunters' Association, looking at a piece of paper on the right side of the entrance.
The girl in the ponytail stood outside the crowd, smirking as she looked at the crowd.
"Hmph, Lin Huang, it took me a while to find your name on the list. You'll have to pay the price for rejecting my offer! "
On the piece of paper on the right side of the entrance of the Hunters' Association, there were words written in beautiful handwriting.
The weed that was mentioned in the assessment was actually a high-level drug called ZC. You can find some information about ZC on the Heart Network. The drug that was sold on the market was in powder form. Only the organization that produced the drug would have the complete black crystal weed.
The organization that produced the drug was called Heisen Castle. It was a powerful organization with three transcendents supporting them. The organization had a branch in Beixuan City. The branch was located in a dense forest in the south of Beixuan City. It was a building that looked like an old castle. You should be able to find the exact location if you look at the map.
However, the branch of Heisen Castle had been successfully infiltrated by a candidate named Lin Huang. He had stolen all the drugs. He claimed that everyone who wanted to pass the assessment would have to pay 1,000 Life Crystals to purchase one weed crystal …
After the long message, there was a picture of Lin Huang at the bottom. It was enlarged to the same width as the piece of paper.
"How dare he ask for 1,000 Life Crystals! There's a total of 5,000 weed crystals. Doesn't that mean he's going to earn five million?! "
"What a greedy man! He's asking for a fortune!"
"We'll consider buying it if it's cheaper. However, it's obvious that he's trying to scam us with this price! "
Many of them cursed when they saw the message.
Some of them opened the Heart Network to check if the message on the piece of paper was true. Soon, they found a complete picture of the ZC crystal. It was exactly the same as the one that the head examiner had shown them earlier. They also found out about the organization called Heisen Castle. They knew that the organization was the producer of ZC.
Since the first part of the information was true, many people began to believe that Lin Huang had stolen the drugs.
All of a sudden, the examinees were stirred up, shouting that they wanted to crusade against Lin Huang.
The white paper also revealed Lin Huang's current location. He was still in the southern jungle. Many of them stopped their beast carriages and headed straight for the forest south of Beixuan City without hesitation. They wanted to surround Lin Huang and force him to hand over the weed crystal.
"Lin Huang? Could it be the guy who was not even an iron-level? If it's really him, I must teach him a lesson this time! "Bai Yan, who was wearing a red trench coat, frowned after reading the message at the door. He still remembered that a few months ago, there was a young man who was also an Imperial Censor but didn't get along with him. Many people on the Heart Network scolded him for running away because of him.
After muttering to himself, Bai Yan waved his hand and a huge Crimson Blood Eagle appeared out of thin air. He mounted it, and under the envious gazes of countless people, it shot into the sky and galloped towards the southern dense forest.
The ponytailed girl who was watching the commotion earlier had disappeared.
In the southern jungle of Beixuan City, Lin Huang had no idea what was happening at the entrance of the Hunters' Association.
It was almost noon. He was sitting on a branch leisurely, eating the food that he bought online and patiently waiting for the night to come.
Suddenly, he heard the sound of a bird flapping its wings not far away from him. Lin Huang activated Boundless Vision and looked into the sky.
"Crimson Blood Eagle?!" Lin Huang recognized it immediately. It was the Crimson Blood Eagle that Bai Yan had last time, even though it had leveled up to silver-level. "Bai Yan found this place?"
Lin Huang was surprised. He did not expect Bai Yan to be so fast. He had only been there for less than half an hour. Theoretically, Bai Yan would need some time to confirm that the weed crystal had nothing to do with the assessment.
"Lin Huang, come out now!" Bai Yan's voice boomed in the sky.
Fortunately, they were quite a distance away from the castle. Lin Huang was afraid that the ponytailed girl would come after him, so he retreated two to three kilometers into the jungle. Otherwise, Bai Yan's voice would have been heard by the people in the castle.
"Looking for me?" Lin Huang frowned. He did not expect Bai Yan to come for him instead of the castle.
"Bai Yan, are you out of your mind?!" Lin Huang stood up from the tree branch and glared at Bai Yan who was in mid-air.
Bai Yan patted the Crimson Blood Eagle and it landed on the ground slowly.
After recalling the Crimson Blood Eagle, Bai Yan lifted his head and looked at Lin Huang who was on the branch. "Lin Huang, I can't believe it's really you. It was because of you that I was insulted by countless people on the Heart Network. They said that I was a coward who ran away from the battle and that I was a coward. I'm going to teach you a lesson today and record the video. I'll show everyone who's a coward and a coward! "
"I said that you're crazy. You're really crazy." Lin Huang looked at Bai Yan in disdain. "You were exposed for running away and now you're looking for trouble with me? Have I been interviewed by the media since the beginning? Have I said anything bad about you to the media? "
"Erm …" Bai Yan was stunned by Lin Huang's questions. He then recalled that it was not Lin Huang who had exposed him. It was two other people who had insulted him. Lin Huang had not been interviewed by the media nor had he said anything bad about him. At that moment, he did not know how to refute Lin Huang.
"But to be honest, I think the people on the internet are right to criticize you. Because you're a coward. You're a coward! "Lin Huang began to scold him mercilessly as he realized that he could not refute him.
"You're asking for it!" Bai Yan hated being called a coward and a coward the most.
"You can't reason with me, so you want to fight me?" Lin Huang laughed. "Think about it. Why did you choose to run away that day? Wasn't it because you were afraid of death? Was it wrong to be called a coward and a coward? "
Veins popped on Bai Yan's forehead but he could not refute it.
"Also, I've proven that you're a coward. This isn't the only time you ran away." Lin Huang smirked.
"What do you mean?! Lin Huang, I'll kill you if you don't explain yourself today. I'll kill you even if I'm blacklisted by the Hunters' Association! "Bai Yan was shaking in anger.
"Alright, since you want to hear it, I'll tell you." Lin Huang said calmly.
"Half a year ago, you were specially recruited. There was no need for you to join the Reserve Hunter assessment with us. But you chose to join the assessment. Why did you join the assessment? Was it really like what you said? You just wanted to pass the assessment to test your true abilities? That's not it! You just wanted to prove that you're stronger than all of us. "
"Just like now, you're joining the Regular Hunter assessment. It's also to prove that you're stronger than all of us. "
"Even if what you said is right, so what?! I'm stronger than all of you. How can you say that I'm a coward? "Bai Yan still did not understand what Lin Huang was trying to say.
"Did you realize that you've been comparing yourself to the weak? You like to show off your strength in front of the weak to satisfy yourself. That's why you've been participating in the assessment that's unnecessary. "
"If it were me, I'd spend the time participating in the assessment on my own training so that I can become stronger. I wouldn't waste my time on these unnecessary assessments."
"True experts are those who dare to stand up in times of danger. They are those who dare to challenge stronger existences. They are those who challenge themselves again and again and surpass themselves … Not people like you who always put themselves in a relatively safe environment and show off their superiority in front of the weak."
"You're afraid to challenge people who are stronger than you. That's why you've been participating in these meaningless assessments over and over again. You don't want to compete with people who are on the same level as you or even stronger than you who have already obtained the Bronze Hunter qualification. You're afraid of losing to them, so you need to find superiority in the weak. "
"Tell me, if you're not a coward when you're afraid of a real challenge, then what is it?!" Lin Huang's last sentence made Bai Yan speechless.
In fact, even Bai Yan did not realize his problem previously. He just liked the feeling of defeating the weak, but he did not delve deeper into the reason. After listening to Lin Huang's words, he realized that it was true. He was avoiding the real challenge. He could not refute Lin Huang's words.
Bai Yan's expression was extremely ugly. Although he knew that Lin Huang was right, he still held on to his pride and refused to admit that what Lin Huang said was the truth.
The bronze ring on his hand suddenly turned into a spear. He held the spear with one hand and pointed it at Lin Huang who was on the branch. "Lin Huang, after this battle, we'll forget about each other. From now on, I won't trouble you anymore. In order to prevent you from losing too badly, I won't summon my beasts. You can do whatever you want … Try your best to hold on for a few more rounds. Don't lose too quickly. If your ability is too weak compared to your eloquence, I'll be very disappointed. "
After listening, Lin Huang smiled and the bronze ring on his hand turned into a saber.
He tiptoed on the branch and pounced towards Bai Yan like a goshawk pouncing on a rabbit.
On the blade of the saber, red sparks appeared. It was like a shooting star in the night sky. Lin Huang's saber was extremely fast. Bai Yan's eyes flashed with fear. The moment he saw Lin Huang pouncing towards him, he had already passed by him.
"What a fast saber …" Bai Yan regained his senses and could not help but exclaim.
The bronze spear in his hand was directly cut in half by the saber. The saber even cut a shallow wound on his neck.
Feeling a slight pain on his neck, he reached out and touched it. When he saw the blood on his fingertips, he knew that he was injured. He was instantly stunned. "How can this be? How can he be so strong?"
Bai Yan knew that Lin Huang's saber had the ability to kill him instantly. He only needed to cut one centimeter deeper and his carotid artery would have been cut.
"This is the result of my training for the past six months. When you were wasting your time on unimportant things, I was constantly becoming stronger. "Lin Huang gave his own explanation.
"You were the one who said that we'll forget about each other. Now that this battle is over, I hope you'll keep your promise. Don't bother me anymore. "Lin Huang turned around and was about to leave after he finished speaking.
"Wait!" Bai Yan regained his senses and quickly called out to Lin Huang.
