Chapter 155 – Fierce battle under the night!

Chapter 155 – Fierce battle under the night!

The Blood Fiend City at night seemed to come alive, no longer a scene of ruins. Towering skyscrapers stood tall, the entire city shimmered with neon lights, and vehicles flowed endlessly on the roads.

In some commercial streets, figures bustled about, but eerily, every one of these figures was shrouded in Ghost Qi.

Underground, a subway train sped along at high velocity, the scenery outside the windows rapidly receding.

Inside the subway car, a pale white light illuminated the interior, creating an unusually quiet and somewhat empty atmosphere.

Only a few scattered figures could be seen seated, but their faces all bore a ghostly blue hue, and no shadows were cast under the light.

Clearly, none of them were human.

Ye Sheng and Xu Xingchen sat leisurely, with several figures seated nearby, all equally shrouded in Ghost Qi. One middle-aged man, looking as if he had worked a long, tiring day, wore an expression of exhaustion, presumably commuting home.

“Let your big brother have a taste of your chips!” Xu Xingchen teased a little boy beside him. The boy, about five or six years old and quite adorable, was munching on chips one by one.

Hearing this, he looked up innocently at the big brother asking for his chips.

Xu Xingchen grinned, looking every bit the villain, pulling out a sticky popsicle from his mouth and offering it, “I’ll trade with you!”

“No!” The little boy shook his head, Ghost Qi swirling around his face. “Mom said… don’t take food from strangers.”

As he spoke, he leaned closer to a woman in blood-red clothes beside him.

Xu Xingchen glanced over. The woman in blood-red clothes had long, disheveled hair hanging down, obscuring her features. Hearing the commotion, she turned her head to look at Xu Xingchen. Without saying a word, she simply stared at him with an eerie, Yin Energy-filled gaze.

Xu Xingchen chuckled, showing no sign of fear on his face. He still reached out and took a chip from the boy’s bag, popping it into his mouth to chew.

But as soon as he bit into it, the chip dissolved into a wisp of Ghost Qi and vanished.

“How boring!” Xu Xingchen immediately lost interest.

Ye Sheng glanced at him and shook his head helplessly. If one didn’t know his true background, it would be impossible to tell he was a High-Tier Super-Limit!

As for the Ghost Creatures in the subway, they were naturally nothing to Ye Sheng and Xu Xingchen. The number of Ghost Creatures that had fallen to their hands was likely already countless.

Half an hour later, the two exited the subway and stood atop a hundred-story skyscraper, overlooking the entire city.

“It really is full of life!” Xu Xingchen sat on the edge of the building, legs dangling and swaying outside, looking down at the distant Blood Fiend City.

Ye Sheng stood beside him, also gazing out.

Many office buildings around them still had lights on late into the night, with people working overtime inside.

In the distance, residential areas dotted the landscape, their windows glowing with warm lights. Unfortunately, not a single living soul inhabited the entire Blood Fiend City.

Boom!

In the distance, the tempered glass on one floor of a skyscraper suddenly shattered, countless shards flying out like blades, some plummeting toward the ground.

Immediately afterward, over a dozen figures frantically fled from inside, darting away into the distance.

These figures were all glowing with white light, extremely conspicuous in the dark night.

As soon as they escaped, more than twenty hunters shrouded in bloody light pursued them from behind.

“Don’t let a single one escape!” one of the hunters, enveloped in bloody light, snarled with a vicious laugh, accelerating at full speed. Every move he made was a lethal strike.

The other hunters were the same, with no room for compromise in their pursuit of points.

More than ten figures in white light fled for their lives.

It wasn’t that they didn’t want to fight, but there were simply too many hunters, and among them were extremely powerful Experts. They were no match at all—they could only flee! If they escaped too slowly, they would likely be eliminated.

On the rooftop of the skyscraper, Xu Xingchen watched this scene and turned to Ye Sheng with a smile. “These hunters have actually teamed up. How clever! Should we get involved?”

Ye Sheng shook his head, uninterested.

Seeing this, Xu Xingchen asked curiously, “Aren’t you worried? If we wait any longer, it’ll be dawn. Don’t forget, we’re hunters too. If we don’t accumulate enough points before dawn, we’ll be eliminated!”

After becoming hunters, they needed to accumulate at least 3 points to avoid elimination.

Three points meant eliminating three examinees.

So far, both Ye Sheng and Xu Xingchen still had zero points. They had spent all their time leisurely exploring Blood Fiend City.

Xu Xingchen was puzzled. He wasn’t worried because he relied on his formidable Combat Power. Once he began hunting, anyone he discovered would have no chance of escape.

He was confident he could complete the task before dawn, but what about Ye Sheng? How could he be so calm, even more so than Xu Xingchen, a High-Tier Super-Limit?

This left Xu Xingchen baffled!

“This kid…” Xu Xingchen scratched his head, somewhat helpless. He had already decided that if Ye Sheng couldn’t complete the task before dawn, he would incapacitate a few examinees and leave them for Ye Sheng to finish off.

That way, the points would still count for Ye Sheng.

In the distance, the more than ten figures in white light were finally caught up. Surrounded and attacked by over twenty hunters in blood-red light, they were all eliminated.

Heavily injured, they were teleported out of Blood Fiend City by a descending beam of blood-red light. It was likely a Saint had intervened to save their lives.

The remaining twenty or so hunters in blood-red light chuckled darkly, their blades still dripping with blood.

One of the hunters glanced toward the rooftop of the skyscraper, clearly having already noticed Ye Sheng and Xu Xingchen at the top.

He raised his long blade and, from afar, mimed a slicing motion across his own neck, a cruel smile curling at the corner of his mouth, as if threatening the two.

“This kid is asking for death…” A flash of ferocity crossed Xu Xingchen’s eyes. He wasn’t as gentle as he appeared on the surface. He intended to rise and wipe out this group, making them understand the consequences of provoking a High-Tier Super-Limit.

The rules never said hunters couldn’t kill each other.

Boom!

Suddenly, the entire ground shook violently.

In the distance, a skyscraper was pierced through by an arrow. The power of this arrow was immense—the building’s midsection was severed as if struck by a suicidal plane, and it began to collapse.

The tremendous commotion caused chaos throughout the area.

Boom! Immediately afterward, a dazzling golden radiance erupted from the darkness in that region, accompanied by an unimaginably vast aura that swept across the entire area.

The golden radiance was so piercingly bright that it illuminated half the night sky!

“Not good! A 4th Revolution Giant Tier has made a move!” Xu Xingchen’s expression changed, his gaze sharpening as he stared toward that region.

The golden radiance filling the sky was unmistakably the result of a 4th Revolution Giant using a Breathing Technique.

Especially in the darkness, it resembled a golden sun, extremely conspicuous! Moreover, only a 4th Revolution Giant Tier could sever a skyscraper with a single strike.

Before long, an angry roar erupted from the collapsed building, and a burly figure shot into the sky, his body also bursting with a pale golden Aura Radiance.

This was another 4th Revolution Giant Tier, who had been hiding in the building earlier. Unfortunately, he had been discovered and was now being hunted by another 4th Revolution Giant Tier.

“Two 4th Revolution Giant Tiers are fighting to the death!” Xu Xingchen’s breathing grew rapid. Even as a High-Tier Super-Limit, he couldn’t remain calm, his gaze fixed intently on the distant darkness of the night.
