What's Happening?

They tried to win the first round by making me fight against a monkey in the forest. Now that they want revenge on me, they will definitely try something to make that happen: Yang Zhai came to a stop.

This leading vulpia exuded clear hatred towards him. No way was he gonna go for another round with them unless there was no choice left.

"Let's start the second round," Hae Jin inquired.

"Don't want my offer?" the leading vulpia asked.

Its intentions were palpable.

"We can't; he isn't ready for another round; let's go according to what we decided before."

"Fine,"

And just like that, it continued.

However, after seven rounds, a dispute occurred.

"You… crossing the limit you do!"

The vulpia was angry at Hae Jin.

"What limit? You were the one who went against the agreement. You yourself said that we could have two people compete in this round; now that I was the one to compete, are you saying that I was too strong? What the hell…"

"I, the leader, no compete. Leader you too, why you compete?"

A total of seven rounds were fought including this one. Even though the vulpias tried many tricks, they ended up losing a total of four rounds, and if they lost this one round, they would lose this entirely.

Because the rules of the last three rounds were going to be decided by Hae Jin. There was no way he would let the vulpias have any advantage.

As a result, this leading vulpia is doing what's obvious. It doesn't want to help us cross this region: Elder Hae Jin thought.

On top of that, it was already seething with revenge against me. I don't think any other way is left now but to…: Yang Zhai reflected.

"Han, what's happening?"

Yue Qing moved her left hand to her left side and grabbed Han Wen's sleeve before asking.

"Nothing, they are just arguing. It's just that Elder Jin competed in the round himself and ended up winning easily, now the vulpia is not satisfied with this. I think we will have to fight, stay close to me." Han Wen said slowly.

No one is born foolish, everyone here knows what's happening. These vulpias are known for being clever, but they aren't clever as much as humans. Even the tricks they played on us must have taken them time to prepare and that too by their most intelligent member. But we still won: Wu Zhi contemplated.

Now, they are acting like we did something wrong even though they themselves were the ones to make the rules for this round. They are just making an excuse which is obvious: Xiu Lan looked at Yue Qing and considered.

I never expected them to help us even if we won, this would have been the outcome even if we won: Yang Zhai shook his head.

This was the reason he stayed in the middle. They were beasts; they didn't care about social reputation or something like that, unlike humans.

However, this was peculiar to begin with. Vulpias, even though not as intelligent as humans, were still far more intelligent than other beasts. Vulpias mostly avoided attacking the qafilas. But they would attack anyone else, even if they were in a group of five or ten.

They would even play tricks to separate them before attacking.

But there were still many instances of qafilas being attacked as well, just like right now.

"Grr, one more chance given you. This round, give up…"

The leading vulpia was even starting to growl now.

Hae Jin was silent. He stood there for a while before saying,

"Fine, we will give up, but you won't kill me. You can kill someone else instead,"

Elder Jin slowly walked forward while saying this.

This left everyone confused. The Vulpias were blatantly defying the rules, their deception unmistakable.

However, after a while, everyone saw the head of the leading vulpia flying. Hae Jin's hand was covered in blood.

It had turned metallic in color. His eyes were ruthless.

"Now that there is no other way left, why don't we just start by eliminating their leading," Hae Jin said slowly, his tone cruel.

"Attack!" He shouted.

With this, the cultivators began attacking.

However, a group of people surrounded a few people and protected them.

Among them were Yue Qing, Han Wen, Xiu Lan, Wu Zhi, Wu Zhu, and a few others.

They are trained to do this, not bought to do this. This Eroh Domain is infamous for bringing up cultivators like slaves to serve them. It's instilled in their brains and bodies like inseparable cancer. This is the reason the middle is the safest place here right now, Yang Zhai thought.

He was among the ones being guarded as he was also in the middle. In this situation, they didn't have time to argue with him.

The vulpias attacked the cultivators wildly. They were yelps coming from all directions.

"Protect yourselves as well as the others around you!"

"Do not hold back, kill them all!"

"They deserve to die!"

"It's times like these that we must prove that we are cultivators for a reason!"

"Yeah!"

"We can win this and go out safely!"

There were shouts, there were yelps, there were cries, there was pain, there was selfishness, there was sacrifice, but no holding back.

In a war, there are emotions at battle, not just the bodies: Yang Zhai reflected.

He stood there looking at this silently. For now, there was no reason for him to join.

Even though the vulpias are in thousands, they are weak compared to the other beasts in strength, we can win as long as they don't play tricks on us: Hae Jin deliberated.

However, he just had this thought when he saw a gorilla jump out of nowhere and attack him.

"Crap!" He hurriedly defended himself.

Gorillas were exactly the opposite; they had more strength than the other beasts.

They even enslaved a rank 5 gorilla…: Yang Zhai's eyes narrowed.

This was something even he didn't expect.

This region wasn't known for having any gorillas; where did that get it?

"Darn!"

A cultivator shouted as he saw vulpias break into their formation from Elder Jin's side.

They managed to break their outer defensive layer.

If this keeps up and we end up separating, it will do us no good. Things aren't looking good: Hae Jin contemplated as he assessed the situation.

However, this thought had only appeared in his mind when another gorilla came out of nowhere and leaped right into the middle.

"Another rank 5 gorilla…What's happening?" Yang Zhai muttered.
