Divine God Against The Heavens

"Now, let the competition begin." The middle aged man announced the start of the competition.

"Senior, I have a question." As the middle aged man ended his announcement, from between the crowd of geniuses a hand along with a voice rises.

That middle aged man looked at the man who spoke. It was actually Xu Qing. Seeing it was Xu Qing, the middle aged man smiled and said, "Yes, tell me. What question do you have?"

"I want to know if I kill a third rank magical beast, does its point will count or not." Xu Qing said in a confidant voice.

Hearing him, middle aged smiled and said, "No, it will not count as it will be unfair to others of lower strength."

"Oh! ok, I understand. Thank You senior for answering my question." Xu Qing cupped his hand and thanked him.

"Is there anything else you all want know?" The middle aged man asked in a very loud voice to the crowd of geniuses present.

No one answered him. He nodded his head and said, "You have half an incense burning time to ready yourself. You can even form a team as I said before. After the time of half an incense to burn will over, you all have to enter the Cloudsmoke Forest."

After hearing all the words that middle aged man said, the atmosphere here turned complete silent.

The final result would be depend on the number of rank two magical beast core one managed to get. There were many ways to get more points. As long as one killed someone else, they would gain the rank two beast core that person had. In any case, there were no rules for this competition.

Ye Xiao could already imagine that the first round of the competition was going to be a filled with blood, be it the blood of magical beast or the candidates of the competition themselves.

All of the boys and girls began to for their own team to hunt. Many of team were formed with geniuses that knows each other. Ye Xiao didn't wanted to form any team or to be a part of any team so he just stand on his place silently looking at others, checking if he had to be wary with someone or not.

He saw that Xu Qing, Feng Lin, Lin Feng, Lu li and Lin Hao, both of them remain alone as well. Obviously, they are also planning to hunt down the rank two magical beast alone.

After the time of half an incense to burn was up, all six expert from the five great sect and the Imperial Family leaded all of them to the Cloudsmoke Forest.

"Now, all of you, enter the forest one by one after every five minutes." He announced and every team as well as the geniuses who wanted to hunt alone, began to enter in the Cloudsmoke Forest one by one after every five minute.

After almost half of the crowd entered the Cloudsmoke Forest, Ye Xiao also entered. After entering into the forest, Ye Xiao began his search for rank two magical beast.

As he advance further, he saw some rank one magical beast. Ignoring them, he continued to advance further.

Suddenly, Ye Xiao's eyes narrowed as he glanced backward. He saw some youths far behind him that decided to group up for the first round of this competition. They seemed to have been ambushed by a monster.

hshahsha...

A strange sound rang out from within the Cloudsmoke Forest.

Ye Xiao felt wariness in his heart. All of a sudden, he saw a monster resembling a wolf jumping from within the trees, lunging right at him.

"What the hell?" Ye Xiao exclaimed in surprise. He dodged to a side instinctively and

Ye Xiao looked at the wolf type magical beast and suddenly felt happy as he encountered a second rank magical beast, Silver Tooth Wolf.

Silver Tooth Wolf is a wolf type magical beast mainly known for its powerful silver coloured teeth. It can even tore open a steel or iron with its teeth.

Silver Tooth Wolf ponced at Ye Xiao again by jumping into the air as if it wanted to devour Ye Xiao's head first.

"Mountain Collapsing Fist"

Seeing it poncing at him, Ye Xiao didn't dodged this time, instead attacked the Silver Tooth Wolf on its head.

"BOOM!"

Both of them retracted back as they collided with each other. Ye Xiao's Mountain Collapsing Fist landed on the wolf's shoulder while Silver Tooth Wolf also managed to injure Ye Xiao.

"Mountain Collapsing Fist"

Ye Xiao again charged toward the Silver Tooth Wolf with his fist. Seeing Ye Xiao charging toward it, Silver Tooth Wolf growled ferociously and opened its mouth, biting toward Ye Xiao's Fist.

Ye Xiao's fist was already in front of the wolf and could not retract his hand back in time and his entire hand almost entered in the mouth of the Silver Tooth Wolf but on time, he stomped his foot on the ground and pushed himself to his right side.

"Ah!"

Ye Xiao managed to defend himself on time but still his shoulder was scratched by the wolf's teeth. Instantly, blood gushed out from his shoulder.

He covered his shoulder with his other hand, enduring the immense pain. He looked at the wolf in anger.

Ye Xiao began to condense his spirit energy on his index finger. When he thought that the concentration of spirit energy was enough, he instantly attacked the Silver Tooth Wolf.

"Sacred Finger Art: First Move"

A light appeared on his finger as a destructive force began to emit from it. Silver Tooth Wolf felt a huge threat coming from Ye Xiao as he wanted to run away. But it was already too late.

Ye Xiao's finger hit the wolf's head and without any further obstruction, it instantly pierced through it.

"Roar!"

"Thump!"

Silver Tooth Wolf let out its last roar and fell down on the ground.

Ye Xiao looked at the wolf's dead body in surprise. Even he was astonished at the power of the Sacred Finger Art.
