Listening to Hada’s pompous words, Xiao Tian almost laughed out loud. This person has been in the Dark Realm for many years, clearly an old sly fox, trying to find a way to escape while still trying to embellish himself.

Xiao Tian was absolutely convinced that if these two guys had an eighty percent chance of killing him, they wouldn’t be wasting words here.

At this moment, Xiao Tian’s gaze turned icy, and he directly said, "I’ve said before, since you came looking for me today,

Xiao Tian’s tone was filled with killing intent, "then don’t think about going back!"

Letting a tiger return to the mountain is not his style.

This time, Xiao Tian was going to make an example out of them!

"Kid! Courting death!!"

It was obvious that Xiao Tian did not intend to waste words with these two. As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Tian darted off directly, the branches under his feet snapping audibly, showing the great force.

"Making a move now!" Not far away, Dong Feng’s pupils shrunk, focusing on Xiao Tian’s rampaging figure.

Xiao Tian moved towards Hada with incredible speed, and with his big hand, threw out several punches, his fierce attacks sweeping out like a storm.

The powerful fist wind formed an immense force, surprising Habi and Hada with how fast this Hunter was; like teleportation, it gave them no time to react.

Boom!

Xiao Tian’s heavy punch went straight past Hada’s block, landing directly on his chest.

At the same time, Xiao Tian’s right hand didn’t stop, waving abruptly as if grabbing the air. He then swiftly advanced on Pank, clawing down fiercely.

A punch and a claw. Both landed directly and simply on their chests, causing them to spew a mouthful of fresh blood and retreat violently. Countless branches shattered along their path.

"Hmph."

Seeing this, Xiao Tian shouted, charging ahead. It was only now that Hada and Pank reacted. Pank stabilized himself amidst retreating, moving his hands swiftly as a strange array appeared out of thin air.

Pank shouted angrily, "Stop holding back, if we don’t bring out everything we have, we’ll both end up buried here!"

"I’ll rush forward with my Thunder Strike Fist, and you find an opportunity to sneak attack him!"

Pank’s Thunder Strike Fist was one of his life-saving techniques. Years ago, he saved an ability user by chance, who taught him this move out of gratitude.

However, since Pank was not an ability cultivator himself, learning this Thunder Strike Palm was extremely difficult. Even after years of practice, he has never fully mastered it, with the side effect being bedridden for at least six months after each use.

Yet, he knew the urgency of the situation and had no choice but to use it.

After speaking, Pank leaped directly in front of Xiao Tian. At this moment, Pank’s face was veined, all his strength gathered in his hands.

"Kid, die!"

Pank charged ahead, his hands moving quickly, illusory and surreal, his speed exploding to the extreme, stabbing straight at Xiao Tian. Seeing this, Xiao Tian also punched fiercely, both hands meeting. Xiao Tian’s arm felt a wave of numbness as fists collided, muffled booms spreading out. Surrounding trees shattered, leaves flying everywhere.

Both exerted their speed to the utmost, shadowy fists swirling, seeming unreal.

Accompanied by a faint rumble of thunder.

Crackle!

At this moment, Xiao Tian seemed as if electrocuted, a Power of Thunder and Lightning spreading out. Faintly, even a flash of lightning could be seen.

"An ability user?"

Seeing this phenomenon, Xiao Tian frowned, then immediately dismissed the idea from his mind.

"This guy’s aura is unstable, clearly only managing this move with difficulty, estimating it was learned by stealth."

Fist shadows intertwined, bouts of Dark Force bursting forth. Even though Pank used the Thunder Strike Fist to increase his speed and strength, Xiao Tian, after all, had the mysterious Iron Chain Cross River cultivation technique, whose secrets he had yet to fully unravel, as his backing; the strength gap between them was evident less than ten minutes into the fight.

Xiao Tian let out a low growl, silently chanting the heart method mantra of Iron Chain Cross River, channeling his formidable presence into his fists.

This presence felt like a black hole, forming a Devouring Power, Xiao Tian’s fist carrying this Devouring Power colliding head-on.

Since Xiao Tian achieved the Great Success of Iron Chain Cross River, this was the first time he displayed his true strength.

"In this case, let me show you the terror of the second layer Great Success of Iron Chain Cross River!"

After refining and tempering his body with Iron Chain Cross River, Xiao Tian’s internal aura had become wild and domineering, the Power of Thunder and Lightning in Pank’s offensive being entirely devoured by Xiao Tian in just a few rounds!

"What... what’s going on with this guy?"

Beads of sweat rolled down Pank’s face, clearly unexpected that his trump card, Thunder Strike Palm, was instantly neutralized by Xiao Tian. At this moment, an extremely uneasy feeling surged in Pank’s heart.

At this moment, the sole thought in Pank’s mind was: underestimated the enemy!

They were consumed by fame and fortune, making perhaps the gravest mistake in the Assassin Realm’s code: underestimating the enemy!

"Hada, save me!!"

As time receded, the fear on Pank’s face grew, penetrating to his bones. On Xiao Tian’s face, he saw killing intent.

They were wrong; each of them was utterly defeated in error.

This Hunter, indeed someone not to provoke! At this point, Pank’s only thought was survival!

Remembering his earlier plan to kill the Hunter and claim the tenth rank, now it seemed such thoughts were childish!

"Come quickly to save me, Hada!!" cried Pank desperately.

At this moment, Xiao Tian’s arm attacked rapidly like a wild serpent, tearing directly, instantly crushing Pank’s arm.

Boom!

A neat triple strike pounded on Pank’s chest, making him spew blood instantly and fall to the ground.

And the one Pank thought of as his savior, Hada, coldly laughed at this moment, launching himself off the trees, decisively abandoning Pank to escape swiftly.

"Hahaha, Pank brother, thank you for sacrificing yourself for your brother’s success!" A voice slowly drifted over from afar.

"What?? You!!!! Pu!!"

Originally, Pank was already severely injured, didn’t expect his big brother Hada to abandon him so easily. At this, Pank spat out a mouthful of blood in rage, instantly losing all life.

Seeing Pank fall, Xiao Tian looked coldly at Hada’s direction of escape, infusing his dagger with Dark Force, then viciously throwing it towards the sky.

Moments later, a scream resounded from afar.

"Ah!!!————————"

And like a boomerang, the dagger flew back to Xiao Tian after half a minute, embedding itself into a big tree beside him. At this moment, the dagger was already stained with blood.
