Prodigy Hunt
The Southern Mountain of the Heavenly King City was also known as the Mountain of Vicious Beasts.
Here, Vicious Beasts were as numerous as the hairs on a cow. Among them, Vicious Beasts of the Martial Ancestor Realm made up the majority of the population. Every year in the Southern Mountain, or when the number of Vicious Beasts reached a certain level, a terrifying beast tide would form on the Southern Mountain.
When that time came, countless Vicious Beasts would rush out from the Southern Mountain and destroy villages and cities in their path. They would kill countless people and were considered a great threat to the Northern Ocean Kingdom.
Therefore, generations of kings of the Northern Ocean Kingdom would set up majestic cities in places where beast tides were prone to occur and send Heavenly King-level experts to guard them to prevent the beast tides from causing too much damage to the Northern Ocean Kingdom.
The Southern Mountain Military Camp, which was also the Northern Heavenly King City, was set up specifically to deal with the Vicious Beasts. Of course, this was not what the Niu Family had told Ye Fei. Out of curiosity, Ye Fei had asked a random passerby to find out.
As for why the young prodigies of the Heavenly King City would gather at the military camp, there was a reason for that.
It was said that every year before the opening of the Earth Roll, young prodigies from all over the world, as well as some powerful monstrous prodigies, would gather here. Firstly, they could communicate with each other and exchange martial arts. Secondly, they could kill the Vicious Beasts in the Southern Mountain, which could be considered as eliminating evil for the people.
In fact, in Ye Fei's opinion, there was a deeper motive for these people to gather here, and that was to secretly compete with each other to see who was stronger and who could kill more Vicious Beasts.
This way, there was no need for a competition. As long as one observed the number and level of the Vicious Beasts killed by the other party, one would be able to clearly judge the difference between them. In the future, when they met on the Earth Roll, they would also be able to know what was going on.
"Sigh, even though I know that the old man did not have good intentions when he gave me the invitation, it would be a pity if I did not go and take a look at such an interesting place."
Ye Fei looked at the huge army camp in the distance and shook his head with a bitter smile. Unknowingly, he had found this place.
The reason was simple. Ye Fei was also very curious about the young prodigies of Beiyang Country. "I really want to see how big the gap is between my current strength and those young prodigies."
Ye Fei took out the invitation and walked towards the entrance of the military camp.
"Halt! Who are you? This is the military camp, no trespassing!" The soldiers in the barracks were very vigilant. They were all elite soldiers from the Heavenly King's Mansion. They were much more powerful than the soldiers guarding the city gates. They all had a dense baleful aura around them.
Ye Fei knew that this was probably because the soldiers had been infected by the Vicious Beasts for many years. The soldiers in front of him were true war veterans. They were the ones who had used their flesh and blood, their lives, to protect Heavenly King City behind them.
Ye Fei also had some respect for these soldiers in his heart. He handed over the invitation card and said in a deep voice, "I heard that you can participate in the Prodigy Hunt with the invitation card of the Heavenly King's Residence?"
"So Young Master is here to participate in the Prodigy Hunt? Young Master, please come in. As long as you have the invitation card, you can enter the South Mountain battlefield. "
"We wish Young Master victory. Kill as many Vicious Beasts as possible and protect the people of Beiyang Country!"
The two soldiers looked at the invitation card and immediately looked at Ye Fei with reverence and passion. They gave him a military salute. Ye Fei also subconsciously returned the salute before walking in.
The soldiers had strange expressions on their faces.
"This Young Master actually saluted us. This is quite refreshing."
"It should be his first time participating in the Prodigy Hunt. He doesn't know the rules. Look at his clothes. He seems to be from the Taixuan Holy Ground of the North Sea. A typical small Holy Ground."
"A small Holy Ground is good. At least this Young Master is willing to treat us as equals. I hope he can last a little longer in the Prodigy Hunt."
Ye Fei's attitude made the two soldiers have a good impression of Ye Fei. Unfortunately, their words carried little weight and they couldn't help Ye Fei at all.
The South Mountain military camp was even larger than Ye Fei had expected. It stretched for more than 10,000 meters. There were at least 200,000 elite soldiers inside. They were the ones who fought the Vicious Beasts every day. They used their flesh and blood to form the Great Wall.
After walking for a full six hours, Ye Fei finally passed through the military camp and entered the real South Mountain. This was the territory of the Vicious Beasts.
The strange thing was that he didn't find any powerful Vicious Beasts along the way. He also didn't see any young geniuses. After thinking for a while, Ye Fei guessed, "It seems that I came too late. Those young geniuses should have gone deep into the South Mountain. The powerful Vicious Beasts in the periphery should have either escaped or been killed."
Ye Fei took a deep breath. There was a faint smell of blood in the air. Just as Ye Fei took a deep breath, Ye Fei took a deep breath.
As he took a breath, a withered tree vine suddenly shot up. When he took a closer look, it wasn't a tree vine. It was clearly the tail of a Level 4 Martial Honorable Giant Python Vicious Beasts.
Unlike the ferocious beasts in other places, the ferocious beasts that lived in Nanshan not only reproduced very quickly, but were also very bloodthirsty and crazy. In the eyes of warriors, every part of a ferocious beast was a treasure that was worth hunting. Similarly, in the eyes of the ferocious beasts, every human warrior was a walking treasure pill. Swallowing one would greatly increase their strength.
Therefore, on the South Mountain, humans and Vicious Beasts couldn't coexist peacefully. The only thing that happened when humans and Vicious Beasts met was to kill. If the Vicious Beasts didn't die, then they would die.
Hiss!
The Giant Python let out a cunning and proud hiss. It was obvious that it had been lying in ambush here for a long time, waiting for human warriors to come over and die.
At the place where the Giant Python was lying in ambush, Ye Fei saw piles of human warriors' corpses. A cold light flashed in his eyes.
Without another word, Ye Fei slapped the python with his palm. The python was merely a Martial Honorable. A casual slap from Ye Fei was enough to turn the python into a pile of minced meat. Smelly blood splattered everywhere.
"Damn, what kind of blood is this? It smells so bad."
Ye Fei didn't expect that the Giant Python would want to disgust him even after death. He immediately took off his bloody clothes and was about to change into a new one.
Rustle rustle rustle!
Suddenly, there was a slight sound of movement in the grass in front of him. The sound was very soft. If it wasn't for Ye Fei's strong senses, he wouldn't have noticed it.
"Is there a second Vicious Beasts lying in ambush and trying to sneak up on me? Don't tell me that the Vicious Beasts here have learned how to march and fight? "
Ye Fei couldn't help but frown. However, he didn't care too much. With his strength, as long as he didn't encounter Vicious Beasts like Wu Jun, he didn't need to be afraid.
Following the direction of the voice, Ye Fei dashed over.
Kill!
Ye Fei had already released his Massacre Fist Essence and was ready to kill the Vicious Beasts hiding in the dark with one punch. However, just as he raised his fist halfway, he couldn't bring himself to do it.
"Damn, what's going on?"
He saw that the one lying in the grass wasn't any Vicious Beasts. Instead, it was a cute little girl with pigtails. Ye Fei almost suspected that the little girl from Shangluo had followed him.
Upon closer inspection, Ye Fei discovered that this little girl was even smaller than Shang Luo, and she was even more adorable. Most of her body was hidden by the wild grass, but from the exposed tender face, Ye Fei could clearly see exhaustion and fear.
Was she afraid of him?
