43 Second Stage: Beast Hunting

Xiao Yang and the rest of the group quickly made their way to the zone where the A-Class beasts are said to be located, they didn't really concern themselves much with the C-Class beasts that they came across on their way, but any beasts that were brave enough to try to get in their way were quickly slaughtered by the.

There was a large river that was stopping them from going to their desired destination, but luckily Dong Zhou was able to temporarily freeze the river using his elemental power and so the issue was quickly solved.

After that they didn't encounter any trouble with the beasts nor the environment, however, they were rudely stopped by a large group of about thirteen students. They didn't seem to want to let Xiao Yang and the rest past through.

One of the mages who was wearing a B-Class elemental armor seemed to be the leader of the group walked up to Xiao Yang and with a smirk face, he shouted, "Leave all your elemental cores and we will let you go!"

Qian Fei and the rest became infuriated upon hearing that, they did collect a few C-Class elemental cores on their way, but they didn't seem to like the idea of surrendering it away.

Xiao Yang, however, remained expressionless. With his Divine Eyes, he was able to detect that the group had managed to obtain a large number of elemental cores themselves, although Xiao Yang didn't really need the C-Class elemental cores, it wouldn't hurt to sell them and make a few pennies.

Besides, it would also act as a warning to those who would cross their path in future exams.

Xiao Yang closed his eyes and nodded profusely as if he had made up his mind.

The leader seeing Xiao Yang's weird reaction, asked "So you have finally decided?"

Xiao Yang completely ignored the question and summoned his revolver, he pointed it at the man and calmly shouted, "Alright, this is a robbery. Leave all your elemental cores and I shall let you leave!"

Everyone became dumbfounded by his sudden bold demand, except Dong Zhou, of course, he firmly believed that a few amateurs won't be much of a trouble for Xiao Yang. This, however, wasn't the case for the others, a group that was in front of Xiao Yang all began to laugh, they all thought he was crazy.

The reaction probably would have been different if Xiao Yang pulled out a different weapon, but the weapon that Xiao Yang pulled out was a revolver that is infamous for being the weakest among the weakest elemental weapons.

Xiao Yang transferred some manas into one of the empty slots and fired the gun towards the leader who was wearing a B-Class elemental armor.

A bullet instantly flew out of the barrel and was headed towards the man at an unprecedented speed. The man didn't even have enough time to react to it, but even if he did, he would have put complete trust into his armor.

Just as the bullet was about to hit the man's chest, it suddenly exploded a few inches away from the man. The bullet that Xiao Yang had just fired wasn't meant for penetration but to create a bullet with an explosive characteristic.

"Ahhhh!"

The man who was the bullet was directed at, felt like he was hit by a miniature storm, and was quickly flown back several meters away.

Under the impact of the explosion, the scales on the man's elemental armor was being shredded one by one, even the shirt that was underneath it was shredded into a rag, exposing his redden belly.

The man landed flat against a tree, some of his men tried to help him get up but the majority of them were too shocked to even react to it.

They were all surprised by the firepower of the revolver, many of them were able to tell that the revolver was also a B-class but from what they just saw, the revolver could be considered to be a peak B-Class weapon.

The injured man who just got back to his feet with the help of his men, shouted, "What are you guys doing? Attack him! The weapon must have drained a lot of his mana."

Many of them all charge towards Xiao Yang with their weapons drawn, but minutes later they were all lying down on the ground, groaning on their swollen bellies.

It was true that the revolver would use a lot of mana, but Xiao Yang was able to adjust it without having to waste a drop.

"Ahhh!" The leader screamed in pain as Xiao Yang pressed down his foot onto the poor man's leg.

"Plea... Please, please! let me go, take it.... just take it!" The man reached out to his satchel and tossed it to Xiao Yang.

Xiao Yang loosens the pressure that was being pressed again the man's leg and glared across the rest of them.

The rest of them realizing that there was no way out for them too, and so they too surrendered their satchels that were full of elemental cores.

"Now shoot!" Xiao Yang commanded with his revolver still drawn out.

The group ran away into the dense forest as fast as they could, leaving Xiao Yang and the rest counting the elemental cores that they just harvested.

After counting the total elemental cores, Xiao Yang divided it fairly among the rest, but they seem to be more interested in the revolver than the elemental cores.

"Brother Chen where did you obtain that revolver?" Qian Fei asked.

There was no doubt that it was a revolver type, but the power of the revolver that Xiao Yang had just shown was slightly different than what the rumors had claimed. Perhaps the beast that dropped it is the reason for such a difference?

"I obtained it after killing an eagle-like beast." Xiao Yang calmly replied.
