The boat headed west.
The sun's rays were very bright, and all the people sitting on the deck were exposed to the blinding sunlight.
Fortunately, they were combat hunters with strong physical qualities, so they were not affected much except for a little bit of dehydration.
At this moment, the examiners who'd been injured had somewhat recovered. They sat on the deck like everyone else, but they still hadn't recovered their combat strength.
Of course, even if they had recovered their fighting strength, they could not act in such a manner. One had to know that the most powerful beings were able to capture them easily, and they were simply no match for their opponents.
The iron bone had also recovered quite a bit. At the very least, he would be able to sit on the ground.
The Miracle Warrior and the others sat around Iron Bone.
The highest life forms didn't care if these people sat together or not. They were powerful enough so they weren't worried that these people would do anything bad. Once they did, it would mean that their time of death was up.
"What is their goal?" "They took all of our communicators and cut off all contact with the outside world. From the looks of it, they don't intend to use us as a reason to get benefits from the Hunter Association." The Miracle Warrior whispered.
"I'm not sure either!" Tie Gu shook his head and said, "But don't worry, there must be a tracking device set up by the Hunter Association on this ship. As long as there are too many ships out of the way, they will contact us, and if they can't contact us, they will definitely send someone to find us."
"Mr. Iron Bone, how strong is that woman? How could she defeat you?" The Miracle Warrior asked.
"Not very strong, just a bit stronger than me. Moreover, she ambushed me, so I lost the advantage, which is why I was defeated by her!" Tie Gu said in a deep voice.
At the side, Xu Taiping could not help but laugh when he heard this. He knew of Vanessa's combat ability, how could she compare to him? He was even stronger than that by a hundred thousand. Even he, if he did not bring the Ruins out, would not be able to defeat Vanessa. In the end, this Iron Bone said that he was only slightly stronger than her.
Of course, this was human nature as well. It couldn't be said that the Ironbone girl was extremely powerful, and she killed him in an instant. Who wouldn't show some face? Especially for [S] class Hunters.
Xu Taiping's smile was not concealed, and was immediately seen by the iron bones.
"What is it? Are you looking down on me? " Tie Gu looked at Xu Taiping with a dark expression.
"No!" Xu Taiping shook his head decisively.
"I heard that you were the only one among all examiners to submit directly without fighting? You really do throw our fighting hunters' faces! " Tie Gu said with disdain.
"I'm sorry, I've humiliated everyone." Xu Taiping nodded.
"I will report this matter to the Hunter Association after we become free. People like you are not qualified to become a combat hunter!" Iron Bone said.
"Yes, we have beaten every single one of them, but we can't. We have no choice but to submit. You, you surrendered without even fighting. You don't have the qualifications to be a fighting hunter!" The Miracle Warrior said.
"None of the hundred or so people here have ever fought before." Xu Taiping pointed at the people around him.
They're examinees, and we're examiners. On one hand, we've been selected to conduct assessments for these people, and on the other, to maintain the safety and order of the exam grounds. It's understandable that they don't resist, but as examiners, it's unforgivable that you don't resist! Iron Bone said.
"Am I going to resist when I already know that resistance is suicide?" You guys can't even beat these people with the highest life in a one on one, and I have to go fight all of them alone? Isn't this asking me to die? " Xu Taiping asked.
"Sometimes, even though we know that we're courting death, we still have to resist. This is the meaning of us fighting hunters!" Tie Gu said with a serious expression.
His words weren't hidden, they were very loud, and everyone around heard his words. Many people were convinced by Iron Bone's words and looked at him in admiration. They felt that this was the kind of temperament a fighting hunter should have.
If Xu Taiping was only an A class hunter, then there was no point in resisting Greedy Wolf and the rest. Even the weakest of them was an S class fighting hunter, and Greedy Wolf was a S class fighting hunter, and there was also Vanessa, who was at least a level 8, but facing the first group, there was no chance at all. If that was the case, then why was there a need to resist? Why did he have to endure physical pain?
"Mr. Ironbone is really the model of a fighting hunter!"
"Only someone like Mr. Iron Gu is qualified to become an S-class combat hunter. He's not like some people!"
The surrounding people all opened their mouths to express their reverence towards Iron Bone, while Xu Taiping remained silent.
"A bunch of retards!"
A scornful voice suddenly rang out, and when everyone looked towards the direction of the voice, they discovered that the one who said that was the one who wanted them to cooperate in the attack on Greed.
"What are you talking about?!" Iron Bone looked at the flowers with a dark expression.
"He's just an A-level Hunter. You can't even beat an S-level Hunter, yet you sent an A-level Hunter like him to resist. Isn't that just courting death?" If a meaningless suicide is the standard of a battle hunter, then I believe that all battle hunters are brainless. " Flower said.
"You, you're too arrogant!"
"Bastard, if I hadn't been captured, I would have taught you to be a human!"
The surrounding B Class Hunters gritted their teeth as they expressed their anger at Flower.
"Do you know why you are a [B] class battle hunter while I am an [S] class battle hunter?" Just because you can't reach the level of my thoughts, and still can't understand the profound meaning of my words, you will never know what glory is above all else! " Iron Bone said.
In my opinion, if you can't beat him, you have to run. If you can't run, you have to admit your defeat, and that's the quality of a qualified warrior, not to say that you know you can't beat him, but to send yourself to your death. I think he did the right thing. Flowery pointed at Xu Taiping as he spoke.
Xu Taiping smiled and nodded at her.
"As a [B] class hunter, you will never be able to understand some of the things that [S] class hunters talk about." The Miracle Warrior shook his head.
"If he could understand it, he would be an S-rank Hunter by now. Why would he attend the A-rank examination?" One of the instructors said.
The surrounding people all nodded as they looked at the flowers with a posture that made it seem like they were too lazy to tell them that their cultivation realms were not high enough.
"In terms of applying gold to your faces, each one of you is stronger than the last." Flower laughed mockingly.
"Little guy, when we regain our freedom, I will definitely let you experience the anger of an A Class Huntress!" The Miracle Warrior said to the flowers with a dark expression.
"You?" Liu Hua smiled and shook her head. Although she didn't say anything, her tone was filled with disdain.
"Me too!"
"Me too!"
Several of the examiners said. Originally, they had relied on their tough mouths to become fighters above Xu Taiping who dared to fight against powerhouses. Yet, they were met with the retort of a mere B-class fighting hunter. How could they endure this?
"A bunch of [A] class Hunters challenging a [B] class Huntress, don't you think it's shameful?" Xu Taiping asked.
"Do you really need to care about it? The trash who is afraid of death! " The Miracle Warrior coldly said.
"I'm really curious, how many of you have truly resisted? Miracle Warrior, have you ever resisted? How do I remember that the moment Tan Lang appeared, he pressed you to the ground and rubbed you against it? Xu Taiping asked.
Xu Taiping's words caused the Miracle Warrior to be embarrassed, because it was indeed as Xu Taiping said. Greedy Wolf had completely suppressed him the moment he appeared. He said that he had fought with Greed before, but in reality, he should have been beaten up.
"You people, speaking so grandly, you have to do whatever you can, fight whatever you can't beat, have you guys really fought with them? Didn't they beat you guys up into idiots the moment they appeared? What, getting beaten up into a retard and becoming a fighter instead? "I really want to be a fighter. Now, let's fight, why are you sitting here with me?" Xu Taiping asked.
"Flower Thrust, don't go too far!" The Miracle Warrior gritted his teeth as he stared at Xu Taiping.
"Am I going too far? Am I wrong? You warrior, how many rounds have you fought with Greed, tell me? " Xu Taiping asked.
Xu Taiping's words caused the surrounding people to recall the fight between the Miracle Warrior and Greed.
Then, many people discovered that it wasn't a battle at all, but a one-sided ravaging.
If one were to look at it this way, then that Miracle Warrior really was no different from Xu Taiping. The two of them didn't resist, but the Miracle Warrior was rubbed down a few times by someone, and Xu Taiping was so adamant on not being rubbed down.
"Flower Stinger, you …"
"All of you, shut up!" The highest being on the side could not stand it any longer and yelled out.
His berating interrupted the Miracle Warrior's words. He shrunk his neck back and no longer spoke.
"Flower Thrust, once we have recovered our freedom, I will seek you out for some advice." Tie Gu stared at Xu Taiping as he spoke.
"Welcome." Xu Taiping said with a smile.
As the boat continued to move west, the sunlight slowly disappeared and was replaced by specks of starlight.
Nightfall descended upon the sea.
Suddenly, the sound of a huge propeller could be heard on the calm surface of the sea.
A few seconds later, a fighter jet approached from the distance and hovered over the cruise ship.
The three of them jumped off the fighter jet and landed on the deck.
Seeing these three, the hunters present could not help but let out excited cries.
