Ye Fan!?

At the critical moment when Qin Tian was about to obtain the beast core of his prey, Ye Fan appeared. Without a doubt, the reason he showed up at this time was self-evident.

"What a coincidence? Ye Fan, even if I don't seek you out, you come looking for me. You have a lot of courage."

Qin Tian spoke while moving closer to the Red Armored Rhinoceros. No matter what, he couldn't let his prey be stolen by Ye Fan!

"My courage is greater than you imagine, Qin Tian. I'm surprised to see you at East Han Academy. I thought my Cultivation Immortality talent was already extraordinary for someone from Earth, but it turns out you're not far behind."

Ye Fan seemed to understand Qin Tian's intentions, so he also moved closer to the Red Armored Rhinoceros.

"I am one who always likes to have things for myself and cannot stand anyone equal to me. Qin Tian, meeting me again is your bad luck. I'll give you a chance now: cripple your Martial Arts and withdraw from East Han Academy. Considering we are both from Earth, I'll spare your life."

Ye Fan spoke with great arrogance, "Think carefully. By staying at East Han Academy, you'll be facing not just me, but also the Spiritual Mountain Academy behind me. You, alone, are like an ant in the ocean, ready to be swallowed by the waves at any time."

"Nonsense!"

Without even glancing at Ye Fan, Qin Tian replied coldly, "Spare my life? That's funny. Let me make it clear: between you and me, it's either you or I who perish! There is no third choice!"

Swoosh!

As soon as Qin Tian said this, Ye Fan's brows furrowed instantly, and the atmosphere became tense.

"Alright then, either you die or I do!"

Ye Fan gritted his teeth. "You have no shame! Qin Tian, the Red Armored Rhinoceros in front of you is mine now. You're free to leave."

Ye Fan spoke confidently, and Qin Tian sneered, "You're trying to take my prey. That's against the rules. If discovered, you're out of the game immediately!"

"I knew you'd try to scare me with the rules. The rules say no one is allowed to steal another's prey, but look—the Red Armored Rhinoceros in front of you is just severely injured, not dead. If I finish it off, won't it be mine?"

Qin Tian frowned, "That's sophistry! No way!"

Not giving Ye Fan a chance, Qin Tian, as he spoke, thrust his Dragon Pattern Red Sword once more at the Red Armored Rhinoceros!

This strike was intended to kill the Red Armored Rhinoceros, giving Ye Fan no opportunity!

"Heh, heh, no one dares to take what I set my eyes on. Your sword looks good too, leave it behind!"

Seeing Qin Tian make a move, Ye Fan acted first, thrusting his own long sword at the Red Armored Rhinoceros as well!

Clang!

However, Qin Tian had anticipated Ye Fan's move. When Ye Fan's sword came thrusting over, Qin Tian struck it with a stone. At the same time, his Red Sword pierced through the Red Armored Rhinoceros's most vulnerable throat!

"No matter who kills it, this beast core is mine!"

Ye Fan was unreasonable. Seeing Qin Tian succeed, he gave a cold smile and, disregarding all else, violated the rules and launched a sudden attack on Qin Tian!

"This guy must be trying to provoke a fight with me, and I suspect Wu Jinming is definitely hiding somewhere. Once we start fighting, he'll come out to accuse me of breaking the rules. At that time, I'm the candidate, and he's the examiner. I'll have no defense and be eliminated!"

Qin Tian realized this layer, his heart trembled. This Wu Jinming and Ye Fan were conspiring together, how ruthless!

No head-on clash, only clever maneuvering!

At this moment, with Wu Jinming as an examiner backing Ye Fan, Qin Tian was already at a disadvantage, but this beast core was coveted by both Ye Fan and Wu Jinming. What should he do?

Let it go!

Qin Tian didn't hesitate, especially when his gaze fell on the white storage bag at Ye Fan's waist.

"Is it really yours? Try it!"

Qin Tian grinned. As Ye Fan charged at him, he too charged at Ye Fan with his sword!

"Still too young. As long as you dare engage with me, I'll have you immediately disqualified!"

Seeing Qin Tian coming with his sword, Ye Fan, leaping in the air, smiled menacingly as if his plot had succeeded!

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

However, when Ye Fan deliberately brought his long sword closer to Qin Tian to create the appearance of a fight, he didn't expect Qin Tian to retract his sword and retreat voluntarily!

Swoosh!

The two nearly brushed past each other, shoulder to shoulder!

"A feint?"

Ye Fan was taken aback. Upon landing beside the dead Red Armored Rhinoceros, he said, "Coward, are you scared to face me? Then the beast core of your Red Armored Rhinoceros, I'll gladly accept."

"Suit yourself, take your time in accepting it. Goodbye!"

After passing by Ye Fan, to avoid another confrontation, Qin Tian barely touched the ground, pushed off with his toes, left a parting remark, and swiftly leaped away, disappearing into the far-off woods.

"Heh heh, so long without seeing him, he's turned into a coward."

Seeing Qin Tian "flee," Ye Fan sneered derisively, "In the Spiritual Domain World, power prevails. Little Qin Tian is no longer fit to be my opponent!"

He said confidently, using his sword to pick out the blood-red beast core from the Red Armored Rhinoceros, and cleaned it with a white silk scarf, his face beaming with a victorious smile.

Snatching food from the jaws of a tiger, Ye Fan felt great.

As he prepared to place the seized beast core into the storage bag at his waist, however, when he reached for it, he was instantly dumbfounded—

The storage bag at his waist was gone, vanished!

He searched himself several times, confirming it wasn't there!

"What's happening... something's wrong..."

Ye Fan recollected carefully, and in an instant, realized the truth, "No wonder he quickly fled, he actually stole my storage bag!"

"Damn it! Qin Tian, I'll tear you to pieces!"

Ye Fan was instantly infuriated, slashing fiercely at a nearby large tree with his sword, instantly cutting it into two!

Heartache!

Just now, Ye Fan had killed two Second Level Demon Beasts, and with Wu Jinming's help, he even killed a Fourth Level Demon Beast. The points from these three demon beasts totaled 140 points, which was already a very high score!

Wu Jinming told him that with a total score of 150 points, one could usually advance, so Ye Fan, after reaching 140 points, arrogantly came to find Qin Tian, aiming to humiliate him and leave him no time to kill demon beasts, getting him eliminated!

But... but now... he lost the bait along with the fish, suffering a complete loss!

140 points suddenly turned into 20 points!

What's laughable is that moments ago, Ye Fan still had a look of triumph as if he was the victor!

"Qin Tian! Ah!" Ye Fan was so angry that his buttocks twitched, shouting into the sky.

Wu Jinming suddenly appeared from a hidden spot, frowning, "What's the matter, Ye Fan? Didn't you get his beast core and scare him off? Why so frustrated?"
