Ace Of Terrans

That evening all the talents were sent to the Phoenix palace and after a couple of hours of selection process one person from each tribe was selected. The city folks were surprised and then they were told that the Holy Queen has set up a team of people to kill the void beasts.

The Flame City was tormented by these Void beasts because these creatures forced them to live inside the city only. The void beasts did not attack the city because of the powerful array guarding the people. However, as soon as any inhabitant flew off the peak, they would be hunted down.

Initially many people tried to go out and hunt these things but none of them returned.

...

The night passed and Kama arranged for all the seven selected people to gather in the garden. Hou Bing did not open her eyes to look at these people, she has left all the things related to the task force to Shi Lang. She trusted him and his skills.

The Terran stood up before the seven people, and said, "My name is Shi Lang, and I will be your instructor. If any of you have any questions or difficulties in the future you can come to me, and I will do my best to solve your troubles. However, if any of you have any objections then come up now and I will take your challenge fair and square. If you can defeat me I will give in to your command."

The seven people were surprised and they turned to look at Hou Bing. They did not fear her but they respected her, she was the strongest entity and was sort of a goal for them. They had no problem following Shi Lang because Hou Bing said so, however, they did have doubts regarding his strength.

So, as soon as Shi Lang said that he would allow them to challenge him and if they managed to beat him, they will be in command. This notion of power triggered them, and a young man stepped up and said, "Sir, I would like to spar with you."

They respected him because Kama had told them to not cross her as he climbed the mountain on his own and was now a distinguished guest of the Palace.

Shi Lang waved his hand and invited the young man to come over, and asked, "Name and clan."

The young man replied, "Yara of the Crimson Larks."

Shi Lang nodded and said, "Come."

Yara was a dashing young man with a athletic build and he was almost as strong as Kama. As soon as Shi Lang gave the signal the young man vanished from his spot. He appeared next to the Terran and attacked with his right fist.

Shi Lang appeared to be frozen, and just when everyone thought that he would be hit with the blow, he leaned back and the punch passed through the void, completely missing its mark.

Shi Lang raised his leg and directly kicked the young man square in the chest. The young man was forced to retreat a dozen of steps. The people did not expect this to happen. They could sense that Shi Lang was just in Immortal Sovereign realm and that too in the beginning phase.

How did he win this exchange. When Yara was in shock, Shi Lang moved forward in one stride he appeared before Yara and his lightning covered fist was shot forth. Yara woke up, and he let out a punch of his own. The two fists clashed and the space rippled.

Yara was forced seven steps while Shi Lang only moved three before he turned around and a spear appeared in his hand. Yara could not react with the sudden change of this move, and raised his arm to block the spear, but the swipe turned into a stab and he froze as he sensed a cold tip resting against his throat.

He raised his eyes to look at Shi Lang and gulped before he said, "I concede, Instructor."

Shi Lang nodded and took back his weapon as he asked, "Anyone else?"

The people were stunned, during this whole exchange, they saw that Yara was unable to gain the upper hand even once. It turned out that even if Shi Lang was weak in terms of cultivation. His battle prowess and cross realm ability to fight was stronger than what they imagined it to be.

Shi Lang nodded and told Yara to go back and fall in the line before he said, "You all have a great potential and can grow into the experts that can shoulder the responsibility of leading your clan. However, for that you will need to cultivate a few traits.

What you are missing compared to the so called heir apparent of your clan is something that you will have to find on your own. The biggest thing is the battle prowess, so in the coming few months, we will be training to hunt the void beasts. But before that, you all must understand that you are a team and without helping and trusting each other, you will die just like many other predecessors have.

Understood?"

The group nodded and a girl raised her hand. Shi Lang nodded to her and the girl asked, "Sir, how did you manage to kill the Void Beast? We cannot even sense them let alone seeing them."

Shi Lang nodded and said, "Good question, let me give show you all something."

He waved his hand and seven void bats appeared on the ground. He said, "You can see that their skin appears to be transparent. Right?"

Shi Lang nodded and said, "You people rely on your innate abilities so much that you have forgotten the basics. Let me tell you, if you go out in the wild and try to look for these beasts with just your eyes and spiritual sense, you are wrong. These beasts can divert the spiritual energy on around their bodies and cancel the spiritual fluctuations of their bodies."

The seven people were shocked, this was the first time they had seen a void beast and it was bizarre.

Yara asked, "Sir, what can we do to sense these things?"

Shi Lang replied, "Who is from the Amber Owl clan?"

A young girl stepped up and said, "I am, Sir. My name is Yalin."

Shi Lang nodded and asked, "How far can you see?"

Yalin thought for a bit and said, "I can see hundred kilometers away, sir."

The Terran asked, "How well can you see?"

Yalin was stumped for an answer and then she said, "If two people are fighting I can tell how they were fighting but I could not tell who they are."

Shi Lang nodded and said, "I want you control your eyes and dilate your pupil to the limit. Look for disturbance in the wind flow."

Then he began to tell them about various methods that could be used to detect the presence of a void beast. The people were surprised and Shi Lang said, "Come along, I will take you out to hunt."

The people were stunned but they were intelligent and knew that only when they faced the enemy would they be able to find out its weakness.

Shi Lang looked at Hou Bing and said, "I am heading out."

The bird opened her eyes and said, "Take your time, I will have someone prepare the cloak you told me about by the time you come back."

Shi Lang nodded and then he led the people outside the palace. The city folk caught this sight and were perplexed. The seven people were somewhat known but they did not appear to be the strongest among the younger generation of their sect.

Shi Lang took them all out of the city and they dived off the peak. Their speed was neck breaking and suddenly Shi Lang said, "They are here."

The seven people also stopped in the void and Shi Lang said, "Get back to back, you need to protect each other and use your own methods to look for the void beasts."

The people nodded and they formed a circle, while a fragment of spiritual sense was locked on to Shi Lang, the Terran moved from his position and his spear appeared in his hand. Experience exclusive tales on m v|l e'-NovelBin.net

He stabbed at a seemingly empty place in the void but a screeching noise made the people open their eyes wide. They saw a void bat appear at the spear head. Shi Lang did not waste much time, and after storing the void bat in his space ring, he began to harvest more and more void beast.

The Terran seemed to have forgotten the existence of the seven people. He just killed and kept on killing. Yara said, "Guys, its been a few hours, why hasn't he stopped?"

Talon frowned and said, "He is cultivating."

The others were confused and the young man said, "He is cultivating the Dao of slaughter. Look at his killing intent, it is attracting the void beasts."

Suddenly, Yalin waved her hand and a screeching sound echoed in the surrounding. Everyone looked over and a void bat appeared in there sights. Shi Lang stopped killing and said, "Good, Yalin will lead and you will kill on her command until you can see them on your own."

He then appeared between the circular formation and closed his eyes to comprehend the things he learned while killing the beasts. The seven people were surprised but they did not even have the time to react before the void bats came over to them.

Yalin was forced to take command and the rest followed.
