Chapter 76

It's just like our family, besides him, there are many geniuses in our family. But this time, he said he wants to enter the Qi Wang Academy. However, he also said that the experts in our family cannot all leave; someone must stay to protect the family. This time, he said it would be best if only he came to take the exam for the Qi Wang Academy. The other geniuses in our family can only stay in the family."

"So, you ran out to participate in the Qi Wang Academy?" Lin Yiming finally spoke up.

"No, because before he left, he directly found me and asked me to specially refine various mechanisms for the family, saying it was for the good of the family. Pfft! For the good of the family, why doesn't he do anything! Why should everyone revolve around him." Zhu Lubin said with anger: "Don't think he's the only one who can enter the Qi Wang Academy. I, Fat Master, can also enter the Qi Wang Academy. Not only will I enter the Qi Wang Academy, but when I become stronger in the future, I will definitely return home."

"I will definitely go back, just wait for me." Zhu Lubin's face was cold, and he said fiercely: "When I return, I will definitely find a way to release the spirit beast in the family."

"You have a spirit beast in your family!" Lin Yiming's gaze toward Zhu Lubin changed. A family in a town having a spirit beast means that Zhu Lubin's family is even more powerful than he thought.

"That spirit beast was stolen by our family's old ancestor using some unknown means." Zhu Lubin said with displeasure: "Since that selfish kid rose to prominence, the old ancestor said the spirit beast would be used by him. When I return, I will definitely steal the spirit beast. If I can't steal it, I will release it."

Lin Yiming was speechless. Rather than let no one have it, he would release the spirit beast. This fat guy is really a wasteful person.

The night grew deeper, and the treetops returned to silence, with only a few insect chirps remaining.

Lin Yiming and the others fell asleep one after another. Suddenly, in the quiet night, the sound of fighting broke out, startling Lin Yiming, who was sound asleep.

Sticking his head out of the tree nest, Lin Yiming, with the help of the moonlight above, looked down and saw four figures tumbling around under the large tree.

"Someone is fighting, and they are all experts."

Lin Yiming had already seen that the two sides fighting below were two Blood Soul Transformation martial artists and two peak Martial Dao Spirit Heart martial artists.

What was most surprising was that the two Martial Dao Spirit Heart martial artists were clearly in the upper hand. The two Blood Soul Transformation martial artists already had multiple wounds on their bodies. In the moonlight, one could see the glaring blood flowing down their bodies.

Under the large tree, the two Blood Soul Transformation martial artists were completely cornered. They stood back to back, exchanged a glance, and one of them suddenly said to the two in front: "Brothers He, why do you have to be so aggressive? We brothers admit defeat this time. Let's pretend we didn't know each other, shall we? Our goal is to enter the Selection Academy. We can join forces later. I think if we four join forces, no one can stop us, and we will definitely enter the academy."

"Join forces? We brothers don't need to join forces with scum like you." One of the He brothers coldly laughed: "We always take from others. We didn't take your water, so you were lucky. You two even want to take our water. Who doesn't know that the desert ahead is at least a hundred miles long, and there is no water in it. There is only one water source nearby, guarded by countless fierce beasts. We used precious hallucinogenic drugs to confuse those beasts and took the water."

Everyone knows that water is the most precious resource. If you two openly take our water, won't others think we are easy to bully? If you want us to let you go, dream on!"

With a cold shout, the He brothers took a step forward.

"Wait, we can talk." The two Blood Soul Transformation martial artists, taking the opportunity to catch their breath, hurriedly said: "If we continue fighting, it won't benefit you either. We have heard of your names. You are from Baihe Village, and we are from Lishu Village. Our family is the largest in the village and has already unified it. In the future, our families can continue to cooperate and grow together. This will benefit both our families."

"Hearing of our names and still daring to attack us, it seems our reputation isn't loud enough." The one who spoke earlier continued, his voice still cold: "We will eventually destroy Lishu Village. Scum like you don't deserve to cooperate with us. Today, you must die!"

The He brothers, as if they had planned it, simultaneously darted out, their figures flitting in the darkness like ghosts. The two under the tree didn't even have time to defend themselves before the He brothers grabbed their necks.

"Crack, crack..."

Lying on the treetop, Lin Yiming heard two loud cracks. Without seeing, he knew the He brothers had broken the necks of the two Blood Soul Transformation martial artists.

"Trying to take our water, you are truly asking for death." The one who had been talking to the other side cursed with disdain, then grabbed their bodies and searched them.

"Such poor devils, they don't even have any water!" Finding no water, the man kicked the already dead bodies in anger.

"Little brother, no water, so be it. We two can save water and still cross the desert." The other brother, who had been silent, finally spoke: "The desert is about a hundred miles long, and it is so hot that people dehydrate quickly. I haven't estimated other martial artists, but Blood Soul Transformation martial artists can probably last about thirty miles. We two can probably last fifty miles. The remaining water, if used sparingly, will be enough."

"Alright, I'll follow big brother. I don't know who came up with this assessment, but it's truly torturous. That desert is not for humans to cross." The younger brother grumbled and followed his brother quickly.

On the treetop, after the two left, Lin Yiming clearly heard a long sigh. Following the sound, he saw Zhu Lubin's fat face.

"Really unlucky, to run into these two stars of misfortune. Fortunately, they didn't discover us."

Zhu Lubin patted his chest, looking relieved: "I've heard of those He brothers. Their village and our family's town belong to the same city. Their family has already unified their village, and these twin brothers are the most famous in their family. They are known for being ruthless and cruel. No one who opposes them has ever survived. Their reputation has even spread to our town. I just didn't expect them to be so powerful. Besides you, Old Lin, there are others who can fight across cultivation levels."

Lin Yiming's eyebrows furrowed. Fighting across cultivation levels, he thought only he could do it, but on the first day of the Selection Academy assessment, he encountered such people. He really couldn't underestimate the world
