Chapter 41: Flaming Cloud Beast/p>
"It can't be, Liang Xiaole, what you're saying is ridiculous. Those two aren't even Saints yet; to think they could kill over 70 Magical Beasts in a day? That's impossible." A youth with a pike said incredulously.
"That's right, it's too ridiculous. Even a Saint wouldn't cut it; I think even a Great Saint wouldn't be able to kill that many Class 1 Magical Beasts in a single day, let alone half. I doubt their Saint Force is that unlimited." A bow wielding girl said with doubt.
At that moment, the youth that had invited Jian Chen and Tie Ta into the group said, "Liang Xiaole, do you know who they are? When did our Kargath Academy have such amazing people in it? They aren't Saints, but to easily defeat Class 1 Magical Beasts? Just who are they?" Saying this, he seemed to have immediately realized something, as his face rapidly changed colors.
Liang Xiaole's face looked proud as if she had done something honorable. With a laidback tone, she said, "I can tell you this: the one that just traded you a monster core for your battleaxe was the one that set the academy abuzz-Tie Ta: the headmaster's apprentice. The other person is the Freshmen Ruler of the annual Freshmen Competition-Changyang Xiang Tian."
Everyone cried out in alarm before talking amongst themselves in excitement.
"So it was those two abnormal people; no wonder their strength was that strong."
"It can't be, it's said that Tie Ta fought Lord Cheng to a standstill at the library..."
"That Changyang Xiang Tian was the one who beat the Saint Ka Di Yun in an intense duel. I was there watching the fight; Changyang Xiang Tian's strength was really amazing."
"I heard that outside the library, the middle ranked Saint Luo Jian wasn't able to deal with Changyang Xiang Tian, and was even forced to use his Saint Weapon in the end."
......
Without the burden of having Liang Xiaole anymore, Tie Ta and Jian Chen's speed had risen exponentially, and so the two soon reached the third region.
When they first entered the 3rd region, they initially saw no difference in the two regions. But the further they advanced, the more hellish it became. Compared to the 3rd region, the 2nd region could be called a paradise.
There were all sorts of magical beasts in the forest, and the land was full of swamps, so if one wasn't careful, they would find themselves stuck deep inside the waters. However, most of the swamps were man-made, so they weren't too deep. Otherwise, if no one came to rescue them, they wouldn't be able to escape with their lives.
Perhaps it was because of the ground, but there wasn't much grass in the 3rd region, so line of sight was much better than the 2nd region.
Jian Chen and Tie Ta cautiously trekked through the swamplands with a small amount of powder on them. This type of powder was a type of repellant that would prevent insects from biting them.
"Changyang Xiang Tian, it seems like you're familiar with the forest. Could it be you've been here before? How could you be this amazing?" Tie Ta said, while looking at the layer of green dust on his body.
Jian Chen chuckled and said, "I read up a lot of books in the library about various places, so my understanding of the forests is relatively high."
"Ah, no wonder." Tie Ta realized.
Right after Tie Ta spoke, Jian Chen's face stilled before becoming serious. At the same time, the ground began to shake, as if an earthquake was occurring.
But before Jian Chen could say anything, Tie Ta had already sprung into action, his new battleaxe coming to rest in both his hands.
Jian Chen glanced towards his left and spoke cautiously, "Tie Ta, be careful. This time it looks like we've come across a large magical beast."
