Chapter 379 - Ring Hunt

In front of the worn-out temple.

Hundreds of disciples with green, pink, and blue robes stood with straight backs and their chins slightly raised.

None of them understood why they were there, except a few.

Kai and Yai were standing among other blue-robed disciples. Few of them glanced at Kai, whose face was bruised.

Hao was standing among other green-robed figures, gathering even more attention. He had a cast on his right arm while half of his face was bandaged.

It looked like he got run over by a truck.

None of them actually asked what happened to him, but they believed that a higher-ranking disciple was the culprit of these injuries.

Green-robed disciples are basically Outer Disciples, while pink-robed disciples are Inner Disciples, and finally, blue-robed disciples are Core Disciples.

They can't afford to anger higher-ranking disciples. Otherwise, they will be in a world of pain.

*Tap* *Tap*

Footsteps rang in the temple.

A golden-robed figure with a bald head appeared with a usual gentle smile on his face.

The disciples instantly bowed.

''The reason I gathered you all here is…'' Shinu looked around the yard, and once he was sure that he got everyone's attention, he continued, ''Because of the third test.''

The disciples looked surprised.

Why were they invited here because of the test?

Questions arose in their minds.

Shinu smiled and said, ''The third test will be ring hunting.''

'Ring hunting?' Most of the disciples thought with a frown and didn't understand completely what it meant.

But, most of the blue-robed disciples did.

Most of them had already heard about the third test, but only Kai and Yai tried to cheat their way through.

''Go and try to steal the silver ring from one of the Chosen Ones.'' Shinu's words shocked everyone, but he instantly continued, ''If you manage to have a silver ring before the sun goes down, you will be part of the Chosen Ones.''

The disciples widened their eyes in shock, but soon excited shouts appeared.

Shinu only smiled and left the temple, leaving excited disciples alone.

The disciples didn't wait any longer and rushed out of the temple.

The hunt has begun.

''Yawn…'' A young man with short black hair and a tired face walked in the empty streets. He was wearing a casual t-shirt with jeans.

He glanced at a few of the empty stores.

''Weird…'' He murmured, and usually, at this time, the stores would be already open, but for some reason, the disciples had disappeared into a cloud of smoke.

But then, in the distance, he saw three green-robed disciples running anxiously.

Once they saw the young man, their eyes sparkled in greed, and they accelerated.

''Hey, why are the stores close—'' Before the young man could finish his question, suddenly, one of the disciples leaped and unleashed a roundhouse kick towards the young man's temple.

The young man widened his eyes in shock and quickly put his arm as a block.

*POW!*

He staggered to the side couple of meters and instantly angrily shouted, ''Why did you attack me?!''

The disciples didn't answer and continued attacking.

The young man quickly blocked the strikes, but one of the disciples managed to land a solid hit on him.

''Ugh!'' The young man stumbled backwards several meters with a painful gaze.

''Bastards!'' He shouted, and once the disciple unleashed another attack, the young man grabbed the disciple's arm and twisted it!

*CRACK!*

''Agghhh!'' The disciple cried out in agony as his right arm was broken!

''Fuck off!'' The young man's kick landed on the disciple's temple, making a bloody mess of the disciple's face.

The disciple fell down to the ground with a bloodied face and white pupils.

Two remaining disciples looked shocked and took a step backwards out of instinct.

''Grrr!'' The young man growled menacingly and appeared behind two disciples.

*POW*

*SMACK!*

After two hits on the nape, both disciples fell down to the ground.

''Hmph.'' The young man wiped his hands and planned to go ask from Shinu what was the meaning of this sudden ambush, but then…

On top of one of the buildings, he noticed a shimmer of blue, which soon disappeared.

''Eh?'' The young man frowned and was sure that he was someone wearing blue robes, but that person was now gone.

''Behind you…'' A cold voice came behind him, and a solid punch struck him in the back!

''Ugh!'' The young man fell down to the ground with a grunt of pain.

The pain started spreading all the way from his spinal cord to his legs.

''You are surprisingly weak for Chosen One.'' The blue-robed disciple said mockingly.

''Hahaha…'' Suddenly the young man started laughing and soon screamed in anger, ''Says the one who does sneak attacks!''

''Hmph.'' The blue-robed figure only snorted, ''Weaklings always have excuses.''

''Die!'' The young man stood up, and a distorted voice came from his mouth as he started running towards the blue-robed figure!

''Hah!'' The blue-robed disciple went into his fighting stance and prepared to defend against the upcoming attack.

''Die!'' Another scream of hate came from the young man, and finally, he unleashed his attack, which was a simple punch.

The blue-robed disciple grinned mockingly and effortlessly blocked the punch with his forearm, and when he was about to do counter-attack, he felt something weird.

*SMACK!*

The young man suddenly bit the blue-robed disciple's muscular arm and started chewing on it!

''What the hell!'' The blue-robed figure screamed in horror and tried to push the young man away, but he was like a rabid dog.

''Ptui!'' Soon, the young man spat out the flesh he managed to bite and watched as the blue-robed figure fell down on his butt with a fearful gaze.

''Heh.'' The young man's mouth was covered in blood, and when he grinned, his bloody teeth became visible, ''Not so tough anymore?''

The blue-robed figure passed out with a trail of urine leaving his groin.

''Hmph.'' The young man snorted, but soon another sickening grin appeared on his face as he slowly turned around.

On top of the buildings, dozens of disciples looked at him with a fearful gaze.

They managed to see the terrifying sight.

The young man grinned and opened his arms, ''Attack me!''

The disciples looked at each other and nodded. They were confident enough to defeat the young man because there were fifteen of them, while only one of them!

Soon, a battle started, and that part of the village was quickly buried in ruins.
