118 Putting on an Ac (2/2)

If he was a first layer, then they had no reason to fear him. However, if his strength was at the ninth layer, then they had no chance of defeating him. Even their Little Tribe Chief would lose to him if he were at the ninth layer.

Xue Wei quickly noticed the disdain in the eyes of these experts, something he was far too used to from back when he could not, in fact, cultivate at all, which made the corners of his lips curl up into a sneer.

These experts had trained since they were ten years old, whereas he had only trained for little more than a year. It was simply wrong to compare their natural talent to one another, but he also knew that he could never explain this without coming off as a braggart or a liar.

Xue Wei was not worried though. Back when he was a fourth layered Earth Warrior, he was capable of defeating people above his layer. Now that he was a sixth layer Earth Warrior, he had a feeling not much had changed since then. The only question was how strong they were.

Xue Wei did not doubt that he could at least handle the seventh layer Earth Warriors, and hopefully also the eight-layered. If he was lucky, he might even pull off a draw against a ninth layer Earth Warrior.

In the group of youngsters from the Chaos Vulture Tribe, there were at least a few hundred people. Amongst these few hundred people, only around twenty were Sky Warriors, and thirteen were at the first layer – the last seven were at the second layer.

The rest were Earth Warriors. Xue Wei was not delusional enough to think that he would be capable of handling a Sky Warrior, so after glancing briefly at them, he settled his focus on the Earth Warriors.

Hei Gou, on the other hand, was looking at the Sky Warriors curiously. There was an intent to do battle in his eyes that were flashing with excitement.

”Think you can defeat them?” Xue Wei asked Hei Gou through a compressed voice. Hei Gou snickered when he heard it. ”We have never had a chance to go wild. Whenever we fight, I have always been holding back. Sadly, these small ants are nothing in my eyes if I use my weapon.”

Hei Gou still did not know how to compress his voice, so he answered Xue Wei out loud. He did not even bother to lower his voice. His words caused everyone to be shocked, Xue Wei included to a lesser degree.

Then he started laughing. ”Good brother!” he exclaimed. ”I will deal with the Earth Warriors; you take care of the Sky Warriors.”

The Little Tribe Chief who was standing by the sidelines was dumbstruck when she heard this.

Xue Wei was only at the sixth layer of the Earth Warrior rank, but he said to leave the Earth Warriors to him? Was that not too boastful?

And although she could not see Hei Gou's layer, she herself would never belittle the strength of her tribesmen. Yet Hei Gou did not seem to hold them in much regard.

”You are too arrogant!” someone exclaimed. It was a seventh layer Earth Warrior, and he stepped angrily towards Xue Wei.

”You are here as a guest, yet you dare belittle us! Do you look down on the Chaos Vulture Tribe that much?!” he yelled. As he came closer, he raised an arm to slap Xue Wei, intending to send him tumbling to the ground.

Mind Infestation!

Just as the slap was about to descend, the young man stopped moving. His entire body was frozen, before it started trembling. And then he knelt in front of Xue Wei.

The kneeling youngster said nothing. Xue Wei had not moved at all, but the person who had yelled angrily was now kneeling in front of Xue Wei, seemingly as if he had lost his mind.

The entire training field became dead silent. None of them said a thing, and one would be able to hear a pin drop to the floor as they collectively stared at Xue Wei, who just stood as confidently as ever.

”Are they putting on an act?” someone asked in confusion. ”Has that guy befriended the strangers while we weren't watching, and are they now trying to intimidate us?”

When this theory came out, others began believing it. No one had seen Xue Wei move, but the person was still kneeling on the ground in front of him.

Xue Wei snorted and released Mind Infestation, causing the young man to return to his senses. He was aware of everything that had happened and his eyes filled with dread and fear. He had been completely at Xue Wei's mercy.

Standing up on trembling legs, this Earth Warrior fled the scene as if he was fleeing from a devil. In the young man's heart, this outsider was indeed a true devil.

The training field was filled with loud voices that were animatedly discussing the scene that had happened in front of them. All of them were filled with disgust towards the fleeing person and belittled Xue Wei.

Only the Little Tribe Chief was stunned. She knew that Xue Wei and Hei Gou had never interacted with anyone else from the tribe, so it was clear that the one they were fighting was serious as well. It seems Xue Wei had an ability that could deal with stronger opponents!

At first, the seven second layer Sky Warriors had looked at the outsider duo with disdain as well, but when a few of them noticed the stunned expression on Little Tribe Chief's face, their brows furrowed and they could not help but wonder if there was something unexpected behind their kinsman's sudden shift in behavior.
