"Have they already started setting up camp?" Xu Yi smiled slightly, then patted the Level 4 Fierce Beast and mounted its back before continuing, "I’m heading over to negotiate some business with them."

Then, Xu Yi rode off on the Level 4 Fierce Beast.

At this point, Qin Fan knew he didn’t need to remind Xu Yi because Xu Yi had clearly already found out the location of Li Kang’s camp; otherwise, he wouldn’t have left so directly.

Lu Ke said nothing, just patted the trembling Erha in an attempt to comfort it.

But Erha remained extremely terrified, as if Lu Ke’s soothing had no effect.

"The Level 4 Fierce Beast is really terrifying. Without even showing aggression, it scared them so much. Looks like we need to handle these Fierce Beasts." Qin Fan said with a frown, realizing he had somewhat underestimated the Level 4 Fierce Beast’s power.

"Handle them?" Lu Ke looked reluctantly at Erha, as she was quite fond of it.

However, she knew that in Erha’s current state, it was indeed unsuitable as a mount.

After all, they’d soon be entering the territory of the Level 4 Fierce Beasts.

Erha was already this scared without being attacked, how could it be useful in the Level 4 Fierce Beasts’ territory?

Would it even be able to function properly if taken there?

"Sometimes we must let go of certain things, a necessary part of growing up many can’t avoid." Qin Fan said to Lu Ke, then moved four Level 3 Fierce Beast corpses into the camp and began processing them.

Meanwhile, Xu Yi quickly arrived near Li Kang’s camp.

However, Xu Yi did not ride the Level 4 Fierce Beast directly to them.

He was concerned that Li Kang’s mounts might get scared and be hard to sell.

"Xu Yi, it’s Xu Yi, hurry and report to the camp leader."

A sentry, upon seeing Xu Yi, immediately notified their companion.

Xu Yi stood in place and did not proceed further.

Soon, Li Kang, Ivica, Lei Jie, and Jerry came out.

"Xu Yi, long time no see." Ivica was the first to greet him, putting on what she believed was her most charming smile.

She noticed that compared to before, Xu Yi’s charisma had increased significantly, exuding an irresistible charm.

A man like this wasn’t interested in her?

Just thinking about it made Ivica’s heart ache.

Xu Yi nodded with a smile on his face and said, "Indeed, it’s been a while. It looks like you all have made some progress reaching Level 3."

Li Kang looked at Xu Yi, realizing he couldn’t gauge Xu Yi’s strength, so he asked, "And you, are you Level 4 now?"

"That’s right, I’ve been at Level 4 for a while now. Besides me, our team also has two Level 4 Mages. The others are also about to break through." Xu Yi stated straightforwardly, revealing his hand.

After all, he was planning to make a big deal, so it was necessary to let the other side know his strength.

Jerry felt a toothache upon hearing Xu Yi’s statement, instantly feeling the discomfort.

"So powerful?" Li Kang also felt a pang of jealousy, thinking it would already be remarkable for Xu Yi to be Level 4, but having two Level 4 Mages in the team?

How did Xu Yi upgrade so quickly?

And why come over intentionally to say this? Is he not letting us live at peace?

Such a huge gap, isn’t it demoralizing?

"Hahaha, their expressions are so amusing."

"Xu Yi is a bit mischievous, isn’t he? He said he’s here to talk business, but first he beats up their faces, so how are they going to talk business?"

"Haha, they only know how to play mind games, engage in internal struggles, and grab power. Now they’re stunned, you self-righteous fools."

"These people probably don’t even know how strong Level 4 Xu Yi is, guessing they just think he is slightly stronger."

"I bet they’re still thinking about recruiting Xu Yi?"

"Whoa, did Lei Jie go crazy, actually attacking Xu Yi?"

Lei Jie wasn’t crazy; he wanted to know how strong Xu Yi really was.

Then he discovered Xu Yi’s formidable power.

His full-force attack was stopped right in front of Xu Yi.

It seemed as if he hadn’t launched an attack at all.

Lei Jie then flew backward, crashing into a tree, and only then stopped.

"Xu Yi, I’m sorry, my brother didn’t really mean to hurt you, he just wanted to see how strong you are." Ivica quickly explained, understanding Lei Jie’s intention clearly.

But, couldn’t he at least give a heads-up before doing that?

If he completely pissed off Xu Yi, would there still be a chance to collaborate with him in the future?

"I know, which is why I didn’t make any move. Otherwise, he would already be dead." Xu Yi said calmly, then added, "I know you all want to know what Level 4 strength is like, so come with me."

Saying that, Xu Yi turned and walked away.

Li Kang and Jerry exchanged looks and then followed him.

Ivica ran to Lei Jie to check if he was injured.

"I’m fine, let’s catch up, Xu Yi didn’t harm me." Lei Jie said, quickening his pace.

Ten minutes later, they saw the Level 4 Fierce Beast.

"This is the Level 4 Fierce Beast I tamed; you can attack it now. Rest assured, with me here, it won’t attack you." After saying this, he made a gesture inviting them.

The four of them exchanged looks and then took out their weapons.

Such an opportunity didn’t come by often. Naturally, they wanted to see just how strong a Level 4 Fierce Beast is.

After all, they needed to enter the Level 4 Fierce Beast territory themselves.

Being able to get a heads-up, how could they pass it up?

So, all four of them attacked together, holding nothing back.

Half an hour later, they were all drenched in sweat.

All their telekinesis was exhausted, yet they couldn’t even dent the defense of the Level 4 Fierce Beast.

The Level 4 Fierce Beast just lay there, not even raising an eyelid.

After resting a few minutes, Lei Jie asked with reluctance, "Xu Yi, can it easily tear us apart?"

"Indeed, even I need 15 minutes of assault to breach its defenses. As for a Level 4 Mage, it might take half an hour, or even longer." Xu Yi spoke, walking over to the Level 4 Fierce Beast and patting its head.

"In that case, can we still complete the 500-day challenge?" Li Kang felt his confidence had suffered a devastating blow, initially thinking there was a chance to complete the challenge.

Now it seems like wishful thinking.

Level 4 is so formidable already, what about Level 5s or 6s? How to handle them?

Could it be that humanity will really lose the chance to acquire Spirit Blue Star?
