Chapter 64: Hunting First Place

Translator: Strivon Editor: Strivon

A single foot stomped on the opponent’s sternum, fracturing it and giving Qin Fen the force to fly into the air. As he flew, his other foot stomped the head of a different person.

Leopard Head blocked the sole remaining opponent. This opponent struck the Leopard Head’s Steel War Body with a side sweep, simply causing the sound of flesh hitting metal to ring in the air. Then Leopard Head grabbed onto that person’s leg head-on and fiercely threw the opponent to the ground in a big windmill-like fashion! His violent methods were even more firm and fierce than Qin Fen’s.

Gasp gasp gasp….

Qin Fen adjusted his breathing over and over from his instantaneous burst of strength just now. He had fought against three three-star warriors and had chased them down in the shortest time, defeating them. This exhausted a significant amount of his energy. If he didn’t take time to adjust, he wouldn’t be able to continue fighting at all.

Leopard Head cleaned up his opponent before looking once more toward Qin Fen. His eyes circulated with the thirst of excitement. Qin Fen had spectacularly used the most simplest Shaolin Arhat Fist to instantly end a fierce battle of a one-versus-three! Just how inconceivable was this!? Such a firm and fierce path really was in line with his taste. If it weren’t for the promise he made in the bet earlier, he would truly fight a round with Qin Fen in the first instance.

“You win, Thirty-Six Hours!” Leopard Head sat his butt on the ground as he said, “I accept my loss to the bet! Make your move!”

Qin Fen wasn’t too shocked about Leopard Head’s behavior. Those who walked the firm and fierce martial dao treated words with enormous weight! Their personalities seeped with a martial air! If one had a personality that was shameless and never admitted fault, it was impossible for them to to unleash the firm and fierce martial strength that Leopard Head revealed just now.

“Don’t you want to fight with other experts?” Qin Fen looked at Leopard Head, “You came here because experts don’t normally accept your challenges on the battle network, right? That’s why you came here. Am I right?”

“Yes!” Leopard Head didn’t quibble. He simply nodded, “Though it’s a bit unfortunate that I am unable to fight with them this time around, but one must keep promises as a person! A loss is a loss!”

“I won’t get anything more than thirty points if I kill you.” Qin Fen muttered, “Before you said that it is very likely that the people ranked in front all have helpers, right? Can you help me, then? Come withe me and kill the people in first place and second place. You can be responsible for the experts by their sides. I will go and kill the people in first place and second place! No matter the result, I will make room for the best time to fight a round with you after the competition is over.”

Leopard Head thought for a moment before briskly standing up. He said, “Okay! I should kill these underhanded people anyways! I’ll go with you! Who will we kill first?”

“Those in first place!” After these words, Qin Fen simply used the system aid to lock onto the position. He quickly disappeared from his current location.

The location of first place was far more lively than where Qin Fen was once at. He had just teleported to a location five hundred meters away, and he saw sevenish streaks of white light flash past his body in succession. Each and every one of them were experts in the top hundred. Everyone’s target was first place!

“Let’s go!” spat Qin Fen when Leopard Head just appeared. He begn to quicken his footsteps. With so many people going after firs place, it would be a waste not to see the action.

They travelled around four hundred meters, and Qin Fen could hear the sound of murderous shouts not even a hundred meterse away. At the same time, he saw the chaotic scene of battle. There were at least sixty people fighting.

“This first placer is really trash!”

Leopard Head arrived by Qin Fen’s side in a hurry. He looked at the center of the battlefield with utter disdain. The person in first place was hiding behind people from beginning to end. His team consisted of at least twenty or so people. And, his people appeared to be trained elites.

“The hundred points is mine.”

Qin Fen muttered to himself and collected his aura into his body. He lurked like a cat, approaching the chaotic battle quickly. Next to him was Leopard Head, who possessed a taller and sturdier figure and a firm and fierce aura.

Upon nearing the combat region, Leopard Head roared, and the Steel War Body instantly hardened his muscles. With glowering eyes, he lifted his fists as if they were hammers and smashed them toward these opponents.

Since Leopard Head had lost in the bet against Qin Fen, he really didn’t want to lose against Qin Fen in terms of vigor. He was three times more firm and fierce this time around than last time.

Qin Fen was delighted with Leopard Head’s ferocity. Such a person would draw everyone’s attention to him, naturally lessening the attention to Qin Fen.

A chaotic battle. Qin Fen had never encountered such a thing. His extraordinary martial senses gave him exceptional advantages when it came too one-on-one fights, allowing him the first to sense the direction of his opponent’s attacks.

As he entered this chaotic battle, Qin Fen’s martial senses gave him a feeling of discomfort. Anybody could make a move in an instant all around him, and his nerves would always react. He felt as if everyone in his surroundings was attacking him.

No wonder Butcher had said that going into true battle was completely different from training! Qin Fen had quite some feelings of lament for a period of time, as he unleashed the Dragon Guard time and time again. He dodged past the attacks of several people, approaching the center of the circle as rapid speed.

Soon, the most important person in the circle, the person in first place, Immortal of the Small Fist, had noticed Qin Fen.

Feeling the gaze shoot over, Qin Fen simply rolled into a sorry position as he dodged the attack. A hint of embarrassment flashed on his face.

Immortal of the Small Fist had orginally wanted to scream for help and have others get rid of Qin Fen, but he immediately felt exultation when he saw Qin Fen in such a sorry state and be so timid. He slid with his feet, bringing his body right before Qin Fen. His hands crossed quickly, the vibrating force of his palm strikes causing the air to ring.

Monkey Form!

His movement was like that of a rogue or scoundrel. Even bricks would shatter to dust if struck by his palms!

Qin Fen’s eyes lit up as he lay on the ground. He didn’t get up. He simply kicked out, his leg akin to a scorpion’s tail that smashed directly toward Immortal of the Small Fist’s skull!

This kick was different from his previous kicks, which generated fierce gales of wind. Qin Fen’s kick was near silent and undetectable, striking like lightning just like the killing blow from a scorpion. It crossed the space before Immortal of the Small Fist in an instant, smashing into his forehead.

Bang! Crack!

Immortal of the Small Fist didn’t even have the time to scream for help. His skull simply shattered to pieces, and his body collapsed to the ground like a broken leather shoe.

Qin Fen told himself how lucky he was when with this successful strike. The Monkey Form was originally a single palm strike. Immortal of the Small Fist had wanted to show off, changing it into a dual twisting palm strike, increasing its power and might but complicating it. Immortal of the Small Fist wanted to finish Qin Fen off quickly, so he had merely acted too cautiously in this regard. Immortal of the Small Fist really did possess strength. He wasn’t as useless as Leopard Head said.

After eliminating the person in first place, Qin Fen’s score suddenly exploded with points. It had risen by nearly two hundred points in the blink of an eye.

Qin Fen found himself surrounded by twenty people. He didn’t dare tarry for a second. He launched himself using his calf in Leopard Head’s direction.

Leopard Head roared as he saw Qin Fen break out from the encirclement. He pushed through his injuries and forcefully pushed back two three-star warriors. At the same time, his chest firmly withstood an iron fist from a different opponent.

Qin Fen had made it over to Leopard Head by now. When Leopard Head took the punch, Qin Fen used a single palm strike to shatter the skull of the person attacking Leopard Head before charging out from the encirclement.

Only a couple seconds had passed from the initial ambush to the actual kill. Only now were there some people who realized that their first placer had died and that the ambusher had charged out from the circle of combat.

“After him!”

Everyone who was in the chaotic battle stopped fighting against one another. All of them, except Leopard Head, began to chase the current person with the highest score, Qin Fen.

Though the War God Arena had allowed the top one hundred experts to teleport, this teleport could only be done outside of a combat state. One couldn’t teleport in the middle of combat. This was to stop people like Qin Fen from instantly teleporting after a kill and other shameless actions.

Fifty or so people were chasing them from behind. The scene of Qin Fen running far ahead was spectacular to Leopard Head’s eyes. This time he didn’t have any contempt towards Qin Fen for running away.

To be firm and fierce didn’t mean being stupid. If Leopard Head was in Qin Fen’s shoes, he would make the same choice. After all, how could a single three-star beat a group of three-stars?
