After Xing Jianfeng and others had plundered all the jade tokens from the white-haired youth and his companions, Xing Peng asked the white-haired youth a few questions about why they attacked them. Then, he ordered Xing Jianfeng and the others to kill the white-haired youth.
Although Xing Peng had come to this world and had already been stained with much blood, he had yet to personally kill anyone until now. He understood the rules of this world very well but preferred to delay taking a life with his own hands for as long as possible.
It wasn't that Xing Peng was soft-hearted or afraid to kill; if he were, he wouldn't have ordered the execution of the white-haired youth. The reason was simply that he didn't want to be careless with his first kill.
...
From the white-haired youth, Xing Jianfeng learned that not only their group of nine knew that they needed to hunt and seize jade tokens to leave this sea area, but others were also aware of it. Therefore, after killing the white-haired youth and his group, they quickly left the area and flew towards other places.
In the following time, Xing Peng and his group didn't specifically seek out warriors to rob; they only took the jade tokens from those who targeted them first.
After Xing Peng taught Xing Jianfeng and the others the 'Single File Serpent Formation,' he went on to explain the essence of the 'Single File Serpent Formation' to them, allowing them to constantly refine their battle formation in combat.
As they became more coordinated, their attacks grew stronger, and their combat power increasingly formidable. Although they were only eight Human Level warriors, when they executed the 'Single File Serpent Formation,' they could face late-stage Earth Level opponents without fear.
Many squads, upon encountering Xing Jianfeng and his group, would lose their jade tokens to them even without Xing Peng participating in the battle.
A day later.
After Xing Peng collected enough jade tokens for Xing Jianfeng and the others to leave this sea area for their next destination, he separated from the group and started looting jade tokens on his own.
Without the burden of Xing Jianfeng and the others, Xing Peng's speed of looting jade tokens increased significantly. Within just an hour, he had collected three hundred jade tokens. These three hundred jade tokens were taken both from trial participants and from those who had ambushed others.
Xing Peng would immobilize the ambushers from afar and then plunder their jade tokens before casually leaving them in the sea area to fend for themselves.
Unauthorized duplication: this narrative has been taken without consent. Report sightings.
For a time, a bizarre scene unfolded on the sea surface, with many warriors paralyzed, unable to move at all!
...
"Eh, you two lads are not bad, having three hundred and fifty jade tokens! It seems you've killed quite a few people," Xing Peng exclaimed in surprise upon finding the jade tokens from two ambushers whose acupoints he had immobilized, a hint of joy on his face.
The immobilized warriors looked at Xing Peng with pale faces and terror in their eyes. These two were late-stage Earth Level warriors. Although they weren't the strongest among the ambushers, they were ranked in the top hundred. However, when facing Xing Peng, they had little chance to fight back and saw their efforts turn into naught.
"What should I do with you two? Should I cripple your martial arts or just throw you into the sea like I did with the others?" Xing Peng asked with a mischievous smile, tucking the jade tokens into a bundle made from his clothing, then slinging it over his shoulder and smirking at the two immobilized ambushers.
Hearing Xing Peng's sinister laugh, although the two had been immobilized, they couldn't help but shudder in fear, cold sweat breaking out on their foreheads. Crippling their martial arts was a far more ruthless act than killing them.
Their eyes frantically moved, hoping Xing Peng would spare their martial arts.
"Hehe, don't worry, I was just saying. I, Xing Peng, am a merciful person. After all, we might become schoolmates; I wouldn't do such cruel things to you..." Seeing their fear, Xing Peng patted their heads like consoling children, then kicked them away with a swift kick. After dispatching them, he clapped his hands and went in search of his next target.
With these jade tokens from the two, Xing Peng now had a total of one thousand and eight jade tokens, a number most warriors would find impressive.
However, Xing Peng was still not satisfied. From the mission information, he knew that collecting more jade tokens meant higher contribution points. Although Xing Peng had never joined the White Tiger Academy, he understood the importance of contribution points there. In the White Tiger Academy, everything depended on contribution points. To obtain high-level martial arts and various cultivation resources, one needed to spend contribution points. Thus, Xing Peng didn't want to miss this opportunity to earn a significant amount of contribution points. Moreover, these points also related to the trial's ranking, and Xing Peng aspired for first place. The higher the ranking, the better the rewards, and Xing Peng was determined to get the legendary storage ring.
A while after Xing Peng left, a sickly youth with purple hair and wielding a long spear quickly approached the area from a distance. Upon seeing the two warriors on the sea surface, he slightly frowned. If Xing Peng were still there, he would recognize this person as the Heaven Level warrior who had descended from the spaceship.
"Along the way, I've found hundreds of people immobilized and left floating on the sea. I wonder who could do such a thing with such ability!" Lin Fei briefly glanced at the two lying on the sea surface, then, with a burst of energy, left a trail of afterimages, charging towards the direction where Xing Peng had just disappeared like a surging wave.
Unaware of the pursuit behind him, Xing Peng continued at high speed, his pursuer's pace also fast but still outside Xing Peng's sensory range.
After running quickly with the 'Wind Shadow Steps' for a while, Xing Peng suddenly stopped, curiously observing ahead. He saw a man and a woman attacking a beautiful girl stepping on elusive footsteps. Despite being surrounded by two capable warriors, the girl's face showed no worry.
As the three exchanged blows, loud 'booms' echoed, deafening and shaking the heavens and earth, instilling involuntary awe. All three were Heaven Level warriors!
