Chapter 40

Tang San never expected that in this collision competition, he would encounter a Spirit Deer demon.

The Spirit Deer demon's eyes emitted a pale blue glow. When its gaze fell upon Tang San, he suddenly felt as if he were being seen through.

But in the next moment, a hint of confusion appeared in the Spirit Deer demon's eyes. It had indeed used its Spirit Heart Eye to observe Tang San, both to find his weaknesses and to sense his uniqueness.

It could feel that Tang San's vital energy was very vigorous, far beyond what his slender body could represent. At the same time, it vaguely sensed a hint of unease, as if there was something about this young man that made it particularly uneasy. This made the usually calm Spirit Deer demon somewhat agitated.

"Begin!" the Seventh-Rank Savage Bear growled.

The reason the Spirit Deer demon hadn't been sent out first was mainly because it wasn't good at fighting. In the collision, it was just there to go through the motions, for fun. The Spirit Deer demon had a very strong sense of curiosity. This curiosity often brought danger to them, which was why most Spirit Deer demons sought the protection of powerful races to live more safely.

This time, Tang San took the initiative. He tapped his foot and quickly rushed towards the Spirit Deer demon.

The Spirit Deer demon also lowered its head slightly and charged straight at Tang San. In that instant, it had a clear perception that this human subordinate posed no ill will towards it. This collision was definitely safe.

The distance between them rapidly closed. The Spirit Deer demon simply charged forward; its body was relatively strong, but in terms of true combat ability, it was not on the same level as the previous three. It was just there to go through the motions.

After the previous three battles, no one thought the Spirit Deer demon could win against this somewhat mysterious Wind Wolf Clan human subordinate.

As they quickly approached, just before the collision, Tang San leaped into the air. He circled his hands and was already in front of the Spirit Deer demon. The Spirit Deer demon felt as if something had grabbed its antlers.

In the next moment, Tang San was already on top of its head, pressing down with one hand.

The Spirit Deer demon suddenly felt a strong sense of fear and instinctively shook its head.

In the next moment, Tang San's body was thrown away, and the Spirit Deer demon, feeling fear, stumbled and almost fell to the ground. It barely managed to stand steady, feeling somewhat bewildered.

Tang San did a backflip in the air and landed a few steps away, struggling to regain his balance.

At this point, the Spirit Deer demon, with a bewildered look, had already reached the center of the collision area.

It stood up straight and pointed at its nose with its front paw, "Did I win?"

The Seventh-Rank Savage Bear also looked surprised. The one who should have won didn't, and this one who shouldn't have won, how did it win? When did the Spirit Deer demon become so powerful? Did it just throw that human away? Or was it because the human was too exhausted to continue?

As the demons watching the competition looked at the Spirit Deer demon in surprise, Tang San had already quickly gone to the prize table, grabbed three Spirit Coins, and swiftly disappeared into the crowd.

Some of the demons tried to grab him, at least to see the face under his mask. However, they found that this slender human moved like a fish through the crowd, quickly disappearing.

The Ghost Shadow Step was perfectly suited for such a crowded space.

Win three, lose to the Spirit Deer demon. Run away!

Seeing Tang San suddenly lose and quickly leave, Wang Yanfeng and Gui Gui also breathed a sigh of relief. They didn't dare to watch any longer and quickly retreated, disappearing into the crowd and leaving the area.

For the demons still participating in the collision competition, except for the Flash Leopards, who were still enraged, and the Wind Wolves, who were still excited, the others didn't have much of a reaction.

Tang San left the crowd and immediately sped up. His memory was excellent, and he clearly remembered the way he had come. He didn't look for Gui Gui and Wang Yanfeng but instead navigated through the streets and alleys, taking the darkest corners, heading directly back to the small inn.

He had just left for less than a minute when several Flash Leopards, their bodies glowing with yellow light, passed by the place he had just been. They sniffed the air, trying to identify his scent and track him.

Of course, this was in vain. Tang San only needed to do one simple thing to conceal his aura: change the Wind Wolf Bloodline Mark, which he had used to perform Wind Blade, to a Flash Leopard Bloodline Mark. With the change in bloodline aura, how could they track him?

Continuing the competition, he could certainly win more. For a Fourth-Rank demon, winning in a collision competition that primarily tested skill and strength was not an easy task.

Tang San's performance today was actually quite restrained. Otherwise, if he had gone all out, the White-Headed Falcon demon and the Rhinoceros demon might not have survived.

When he was in the third match, he noticed that some Flash Leopards had left the arena, clearly to gather more of their kind. His main purpose for coming today had already been achieved, so he used the collision with the Spirit Deer demon to quickly escape.

As he quickly left, he kept an eye out for any danger behind him, and a smile gradually formed on his lips.

It's done. The main goal for today has been achieved.

Back at the inn, Tang San quickly returned to his room and took off his mask, looking out the window.

It wasn't long before Wang Yanfeng and Gui Gui returned.

The two almost immediately came to Tang San's room. As soon as they entered, before Gui Gui could speak, Tang San handed her a Spirit Coin, "Aunt Gui, this is for you."

Gui Gui was taken aback. Her small inn usually housed human subordinates, who were all poor. It was common for them not to pay, let alone give Spirit Coins. The rarest thing was to receive a well-minted Spirit Coin. Seeing the beautifully crafted Spirit Coin in front of her, the words of reproach on her lips were instantly swallowed.

Tang San then took out another Spirit Coin and handed it to Wang Yanfeng, "Teacher, I'm sorry for making you worry."

Wang Yanfeng took the Spirit Coin, his lips twitching, "You're too bold, killing that Flash Leopard."

Tang San's face showed a hint of fear, "I didn't mean to kill it. I just raised my hand... I didn't know it would end up like that. Teacher, will there be any trouble?"

Seeing the fear on his face, Wang Yanfeng's expression relaxed a bit. For a nine-year-old child, if he remained calm after killing a demon, that would be the most abnormal situation.

"Fortunately, you ran fast. When we left, many leopard demons had already arrived," Wang Yanfeng said with a lingering sense of fear.

Tang San asked, "Will it affect other human subordinates?"

Wang Yanfeng shook his head, "It won't. Different subordinates belong to different races. They naturally have their own races to protect them. When we returned, we saw the Flash Leopards and Wind Wolves already in conflict. After all, the core conflict is between the two races."

"That's good," Tang San sighed in relief.
