Demons and monsters wreak havoc: gain one new confidante every day.

Dust rose in the air on the training ground, creating an atmosphere of grim determination.

Wang Long looked coldly at Shen You with a disdainful gaze.

Many people felt a chill just by looking at his expression.

The overlapping black tiger phantom on Wang Long's body made many people break out in a cold sweat.

"Wang Long is actually going to test Shen You!"

"The two of them have been at odds since the very beginning!"

"Are we still going to fight?"

"A fight? No, I think he wants to kill Shen You!"

The group of apprentices in hemp clothing looked at each other in bewilderment.

Wang Long is a bodyguard with a broadsword, and even Bai Sui is at least a second-rank expert.

Shen You is only a first-rank martial artist.

It has crossed a major threshold.

How can we fight like this?

Not to mention...

Some discerning apprentices in hemp clothing had already recognized them.

"That black tiger phantom on Wang Long's body is the 'Black Tiger Force'!"

Just as Yoshiji Wada mastered the "White Ape Stance" to its highest level, Wang Long has also mastered the "Black Tiger Sword Technique" to its highest level!

"Trying to use brute force to fight a first-rank martial artist, isn't that just bullying them?"

"I already said, it wasn't just bullying, it was murder!"

A hempen-clad apprentice, his face grave, slowly spoke:

"He's going to kill Shen You!"

Everyone fell silent for a moment.

Many people are aware of the feud between Wang Long and Shen You. It was only because Shen You injured Wang Long's younger brother, Wang Hu, that Wang Long decided to kill him in public.

How domineering! How arrogant!

In Wang Long's eyes, the apprentices in hemp clothing were all worthless lives that could be killed at will.

This made the way the apprentices in hemp clothing looked at Wang Long become complicated.

They certainly didn't like Shen You either.

But they understand the weight of life even more.

Wang Long was about to kill the apprentice in hemp clothing at will.

This made them feel a sense of shared hatred for the enemy.

Beside him, Guard Xue stepped forward and said coldly:

"The challenge rounds are only for Mai's apprentices; it's against the rules for you to step in and test them!"

Wang Long sneered and cast a disdainful glance at him:

"Here, your words don't count!"

Guard Xue gritted his teeth:

"Then whose rules apply?!"

A cold voice rang out:

"My word is law!"

Everyone shuddered again and turned to look at Huang Yaoshi, who was sitting upright in a chair on the stage.

Huang Yaoshi merely glanced at everyone, and they all felt a sharp, stabbing pain all over their bodies.

Everyone was shocked and quickly lowered their heads, no one daring to meet Huang Yaoshi's gaze.

On the stage, Pharmacist Hong sighed:

"Old Huang, it seems you're the one who injured this Shen You brat's godmother... With your status and position, why go to such lengths to kill a mere child like Ma Yi?"

A mocking sneer appeared on Huang Yaoshi's lips:

"The Wang Hu he injured was originally supposed to work for me. He messed with my people without permission, so naturally he has to pay the price. Otherwise, who would want to follow me?"

"Elder Huang, this is a pharmacy, why are you so concerned with power struggles..."

Hong the pharmacist's voice was dry.

Huang Yaoshi's eyes flashed with a cold light as he looked at Hong Yaoshi.

"This is a pharmacy, but isn't it also a part of the human world?"

"Wherever there are people, there will inevitably be competition and struggle; it's always been that way!"

"Mr. Hong, it seems you really are getting old!"

Hong Yaoshi was speechless for a moment.

Below, Hong Xiugu stepped forward, clenched her fist, and glared at Wang Long.

"This is our Mai examination hall, don't interfere!"

Wang Long looked at her coldly, completely unmoved:

"I'll help you with the entrance exams so that some random, incompetent people can sneak into the inner courtyard!"

"I didn't ask you to help me!"

Hong Xiugu said angrily.

Wang Long sneered:

"That's not up to you!"

Hong Xiugu was about to get angry when Hong Yaoshi on the stage suddenly spoke up:

"Xiugu, you may leave."

"Grandpa, but..." Hong Xiugu looked at Hong Yaoshi in astonishment.

Pharmacist Hong shook his head gravely: "This matter has nothing to do with us..."

At that moment, he seemed to have aged several years in an instant, looking like a completely elderly man.

Hong Xiugu gritted her teeth unwillingly, but finally stepped aside.

Huang Yaoshi on the stage then let out a cold snort and withdrew his gaze from Hong Yaoshi.

Tian Yi'er had already retreated to the side, leaving Shen You alone to face the menacing Wang Long.

All the apprentices in hemp clothing around looked over with concern.

Someone shouted, "Shen You, run! There's no room for you here!"

Someone gave a wry smile: "Where can they run to?"

Someone shook their head helplessly: "If you offend the pharmacist in the pharmacy, he's already dead!"

No one had high hopes for Shen You, no one thought she could survive. Many people sympathized with her situation and showed expressions of sorrow.

Shen You laughed.

"It's okay!"

Shen You stepped forward, facing Wang Long directly.

He slung the broadsword over his shoulder, thought for a moment, and a carefree smile crept onto his lips:

"Because I will take action!"

laugh!

Shen You swung his broadsword, also pointing it directly at Wang Long, his gaze suddenly turning icy cold:

"We're all martial artists, so let's stop with this nonsense about testing each other. Let's have a fight, life or death!"

"Oh!"

Wang Long laughed, his gaze equally icy and penetrating.

"That's exactly what I was thinking!"

The crowd was in an uproar, not expecting Shen You to be so courageous as to actually dare to fight Wang Long to the death.

They looked at each other, their eyes filled with disbelief.

They thought Shen You had gone completely mad.

But for some reason, a surge of passion slowly welled up in their hearts.

"Shen boy, you have to win!"

Without realizing it, they clenched their fists.

The war is about to start.

Since the two martial artists were about to fight each other, no one could stop the battle. Everyone naturally stepped back, clearing a space for them.

Hong Xiugu stood on the sidelines, her teeth clenched. She watched Shen You face Wang Long, who was a level higher than her, yet remained fearless, and a feeling she couldn't quite describe welled up inside her.

Beside her, Tian Yi'er looked up at Shen You, his eyes filled with admiration. Tian Yi'er was the most timid person, and seeing Shen You's heroic and fearless actions, he felt that this was something he could never learn in his entire life.

call--

In the arena, Shen You, carrying a large sword, slowly exhaled, his heart finally calming down.

Undeniably, Wang Long in front of him brought him tremendous psychological pressure.

Wang Long simply stood there, his figure resembling an invincible black tiger, raising its head and roaring at him.

A second-rank martial artist is far superior to an ordinary apprentice in hemp clothing.

Shen You's last battle was against Wang Hu, but this time he will directly face Wang Long, who is at the second rank.

In Shen You's perception, it was as if he were facing a monstrous beast.

"This is so unfair..."

Shen You thought to herself, but a smile slowly crept onto her face.

"But if fairness truly existed in this world, this godforsaken place wouldn't be so unbearable!"

In this world, to survive, you ultimately cannot rely on anyone.

"I have to fight my way out myself!"

A wild, maniacal smile spread across Shen You's face. His broadsword sprang from his shoulder, and in that instant, he suddenly lunged forward, slashing down with his broadsword as he launched a preemptive attack on Wang Long.

Everyone gasped in surprise.

No one could have imagined that Shen You would dare to launch an attack against Wang Long, who was far more powerful than him.

Is he really not afraid of death?

Faced with this blow, a flash of ferocious rage crossed Wang Long's face:

"court death!!"

He didn't dodge or evade at all, but instead swung his broadsword, bringing with it a fierce gust of wind, and slashed directly at Shen You.

A tangible phantom of a black tiger simultaneously lit up on his body.

In an instant, his blade seemed to roar like a tiger, its ferocity greatly increased.

With just one move, he unleashed the "Black Tiger Force"!

Wang Long lunged at Shen You like a roaring black tiger.

Everyone's expression changed simultaneously.
