What do you mean by my awakened profession being Monster Hunter?

"Hey, don't be so obvious, or you'll give yourself away!"

Qi Shi'an was somewhat helpless. The way this little guy looked like he was about to feast whenever he saw a beast was exactly like a human-shaped little glutton.

"What does it matter? I'm already in here, what can they do to me!"

Shi Hao muttered to himself, saying he wasn't afraid, but quickly wiped the drool away with his hands.

Before long, they were led to a vast open space, surrounded by the radiant light of the surrounding sacred mountains. In the center stood a towering stone statue, carved from a single mountain.

"This is our Patriarch of the Heaven-Mending Pavilion. Upon entering our pavilion, the first thing to do is to pay homage to our Patriarch!"

The stone statue was enormous, but it had become mottled and dilapidated under the ravages of time, and could only be vaguely discerned as a human figure, yet it remained incredibly majestic.

"Pay homage to the ancestral master!"

An elder shouted, leading more than four thousand children in a grand salute.

I never expected Shi Hao to be so restless.

He scratched his head, poked this and touched that, trying to connect with others, since they were all fellow disciples and would see each other often in the future.

As a result, the children were terrified and dared not be distracted during the grand ceremony, so they all stayed away from this plague god.

Shi Hao had no choice but to silently pray.

Half an hour later, all the rituals were completed, and everyone was preparing to retreat.

Suddenly, several powerful figures appeared on the platform, carrying two large rocks and rushing over.

"What is that? Is it a strange stone?" Many teenagers were curious.

Only Qi Shi'an kept his eyes fixed on Shi Hao, staring so intently that it gave him goosebumps.

"Show them all!" Elder Zhuo Yun shouted loudly, his face dark.

Two boulders were carried onto the high platform, facing the crowd, each revealing two lines of text engraved on it: "Divine Martial Prowess, Upright and Just!"

In heaven and on earth, only my fist is the greatest!

The teenagers below the stage immediately erupted in commotion. They had all entered the Realm of the Gods to some extent and naturally knew these words.

"The baby and the fierce baby!"

"It was left by those two eccentric kids. Could it be that they really entered the Heaven-Mending Pavilion?"

"No way, we couldn't find it before, could they have really infiltrated?"

More than four thousand people exclaimed in surprise.

Elder Zhuo Yun had one of the rocks turned around, and with his back to everyone, another line of words appeared: "With a hammer in hand, I have the world at my command!"

While everyone was surprised, they couldn't help but laugh.

Only one outstanding young man in a silver robe clenched his fist and then quickly covered the bump on his forehead, because the bump was throbbing with pain from his excitement.

"It really was them! That baby!"

The silver-robed youth gritted his teeth. He guessed that it must have been the baby who had ambushed him. If it were a fierce child, he would never have turned back to return all the Heaven-Mending Stones to him. It could only be the baby!

Elder Xiong Fei, his face grim, said on the platform, "I think you all know who they are, right? These two brats are probably in our Heaven-Mending Pavilion. Now, I'm giving you a task..."

To everyone's surprise, Elder Xiong Fei issued a warrant, stating that anyone who discovers clues about the baby or the fierce child and reports it immediately will become a core disciple.

If someone discovers both the baby and the fierce child and reports it, they will not only become the most core disciple, but will also be rewarded with a treasure.

"Wow!"

The place instantly erupted in excitement, with over four thousand young men and women filled with elation! Not only did they gain status, but they also possessed powerful magical artifacts.

Qi Shi'an and Shi Hao exchanged a glance and both grinned. They had only just entered the sect and had already become wanted criminals in the Pure Land. It seemed they would have to be more careful in the future. If they were to be caught carelessly, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Seize these two outrageous bastards!"

A group of newly arrived disciples shouted in unison, their voices incredibly loud.

Qi Shi'an and Shi Hao immediately slunk into the crowd, and then shouted, "Catch those two outrageous brats!"

"Alright, everyone go and choose your masters." The elders waved their hands.

The two of them gathered together with a few people they had become acquainted with when they paid homage to the patriarch, and followed a senior sister in white to choose a master.

As a result, the places were packed, mainly because there were just too many people this year.

"Alright, these children are now mine and Zhuo Yun's responsibility." Xiong Fei and Elder Zhuo Yun flew over.

"what?"

This left Qi Shi'an and Shi Hao dumbfounded. The two old men were so angry they almost vomited blood. Now that they were apprentices to these two old men, would they still have a good life in the future?

If their identities are ever exposed, those two old men will be the first to not let them off the hook.

In fact, Elder Xiong Fei and Elder Zhuo Yun were also helpless. Together they had taken in more than a hundred disciples. Did they have to teach them all by themselves?

Given that the assessment was their responsibility and they had caused such a huge mess, they had no choice but to take on the hard work.

After Qi Shi'an and Shi Hao were forced to choose a master, they were led by the senior sister in white towards a mountainous area.

During the process, the senior sister in white kept explaining some rules and solemnly warned them that they must never go to the dwelling place of the sacrificial spirits in the Patching Heaven Pavilion.

"A spirit sacrifice? I wonder if my Myriad Dao Tree Divine Elixir can delay its death," Qi Shi'an thought to himself.

He knew that, according to the original story, the spirit's lifespan was already limited, and death was inevitable.

But if His death could be slowed down, even by a year or two, it would be enough for him and Shi Hao to grow up.

"Alas, matters of life and death are left to fate," Qi Shi'an lamented in his heart.

The two elders temporarily stayed at the new disciples' residence. For several days in a row, the two elders only showed up once, and left in a hurry after explaining the bone script.

Qi Shi'an had also practiced his marksmanship a bit during this time. It has to be said that Butian Pavilion is really generous, providing its disciples with all kinds of weapons.

Although it's not a magic weapon, it's still made from rare minerals.

He used up all the Divine Liquid of the Myriad Trees, and his cultivation officially broke through, opening the eighth cave heaven!

"Hey, happy life begins! By the way, why hasn't Maoqiu come in yet?" Shi Hao blinked his big eyes.

"Maybe he's hiding somewhere stealing medicinal herbs," Qi Shi'an said with a slight smile.

"Okay, let's leave it for now."

When Shi Hao heard what Qi Shi'an said, he also felt that it made sense, so he decided to ignore the fur ball for the time being.

In the following days, some geniuses were inexplicably selected, such as promising young men who performed amazingly on the second battlefield.

"Labor?!"

"Why should I? I came here to cultivate. Those two old men only show up once every few days, and they only teach me what I already know."

When Shi Hao heard that he would have to do labor, he was very dissatisfied. Wasn't this a waste of his cultivation time?

"Stop complaining. New disciples all start from the bottom. Otherwise, why would they teach you bone script and magic techniques? Unless your talent is frightening enough, you won't get any attention."

A fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy explained.

"Tch, so be it, let's do the work!" Qi Shi'an said indifferently.

"It's just labor, right? If I don't manage to steal a few rare herbs and stones when it's my turn to work, I'll write my name backwards!"

Qi Shi'an had already planned how to steal while working.

Anyway, he wasn't afraid of being found. He could disguise himself and no one would be able to see through his disguise. Besides, there were so many newly recruited disciples that no one could remember anyone's face.

However, it wasn't his turn for several days in a row. He and Shi Hao could only look longingly at the medicinal field, praying that it would be their turn next time.

Two days later, a grayish little creature appeared, looking sneaky, its little nose twitching, and went straight to the house where Shi Hao and Qi Shi'an lived.

"Why are you only getting back now?"

Shi Hao violently pushed open the door, rushed out, grabbed the fur ball by the tail, and lifted it upside down.

"Squeak..."

The furry ball barked angrily, seemingly in protest.

"Did this little thing go to steal some medicinal herbs? As soon as I came in, my sensitive nose smelled the fragrance of herbs."

Qi Shi'an rubbed his nose and slowly walked out of the house.

"Tell the truth!"

Reminded by Qi Shi'an, Shi Hao grabbed the little paw of the fur ball and smelled it, and indeed there was a lingering scent of spiritual medicine.

The fluffy ball hesitated and finally only stretched out one small paw, then cried out indignantly.

"Hmph, you've almost forgotten about me while gathering spiritual herbs. Are you deliberately hiding from me to secretly refine them?" Shi Hao rubbed and pinched the fur ball's face.

The little furball stretched out a small paw and squeaked, explaining the events of the past few days to Shi Hao.

"Put aside your theft of the elixir for now. Go find Qingfeng and see how he's been these past few days, whether he's doing well or not."

After entering the Heaven-Mending Pavilion, they had no chance to see Qingfeng. They even thought of sneaking into the Genius Camp, but they were afraid of being discovered. After all, this was an ancient pure land with countless experts.

"While you're at it, check on my pet beasts to see if they've protected Qingfeng well," Qi Shi'an said with a serious expression.

With Ah Jin's protection, Qingfeng shouldn't be bullied too badly, but he was still a little worried.

When the topic turned to business, the fluffy ball's big eyes darted around, and without hesitation, it quickly disappeared from their sight.

The Genius Camp is located in a spiritual land, with verdant peaks and valleys, shrouded in mist and abundant in spiritual energy, making it extremely suitable for cultivation, far superior to the residences of ordinary disciples, because this is where a group of core geniuses reside.

However, under the moonlight, inside a wooden hut, a man was wiping his wounds, and a bear was licking its severed left paw. Both the man and the bear were badly injured.

The man and the bear were Qingfeng and Ajin.

"I'm sorry, Ah Jin, it's because I'm too weak that I've hurt you," Qingfeng murmured to himself, his eyes dim.

He was one of the youngest and weakest in the genius camp, and was targeted by several people as soon as he arrived.

When sparring with him, he was ruthless. If Ah Jin hadn't stepped in, he probably wouldn't have just been beaten halfway up his body and left with bruises.

To protect him, A Jin scared off several people, but the next day, they brought another group. Although A Jin was strong, he couldn't withstand the overwhelming numbers and had one of his bear paws chopped off.

"Roar!"

With its only remaining right hand, Ajin touched the breeze. It didn't complain about the breeze; instead, it comforted it.

The man and the bear were beaten so badly that it was unbearable to look at; their wounds were difficult to heal and could only be slowly nurtured over time.

But those people would come to cause trouble for them from time to time, arrogantly demanding to spar, and even threatening to stew Ah Jin.

Qingfeng only recently understood why they were like this: if someone stayed in the genius camp for too long without making any progress, they would be eliminated and replaced by someone from outside.

They wanted to get their clan's disciples into the genius camp, so they picked on the easiest ones to bully.

“I must hold on and stay here, because the spirits deep in the ancient Pure Land will preach several times a year.”

"It is said to be extremely profound and can lead to sudden enlightenment. I will write down the scripture and then give it to the two young men."

After treating his own wounds, Qingfeng turned to treat Ajin's wounds, which were the most serious, to the point that Ajin could hardly get out of bed.

Just then, a small creature peeked out the window and darted in.

"Fluffy ball!"

Qingfeng was overjoyed. These past few days had been very difficult for them, as they had been bullied.

The thought of the warmth of Shicun filled him with longing, and he almost burst into tears after not seeing Maoqiu for only half a month.

"Squeak."

Maoqiu roared angrily, seeing the injuries on Qingfeng and Ajin's bodies. Those were hidden injuries with runes, which were extremely difficult to heal.

This immediately made it restless. Having spent so much time together, it had already developed feelings for Qingfeng and Ajin.

They couldn't bear to see them being bullied, especially so badly injured. Ah Jin even had one of his bear paws cut off. If that little devil saw this, he would surely rush to the Genius Camp with his gun.

"It's okay, I'm not in pain. It's Ah Jin who's really in pain," Qingfeng comforted it.

"Squeak."

The furry ball wouldn't have it and kept barking angrily, as if it wanted to take revenge.

"Don't go. If they find you, you probably won't be able to escape. Those people are very powerful." Qingfeng reassured Maoqiu, trying to calm it down.

The fur ball calmed down, scratched its head, and gestured to Qingfeng to tell it what had happened. Then it went back to tell Qi Shi'an and Shi Hao so that those two little devils could deal with them.
