Boom!

The millstone-sized giant paw of the Brown Bear lashed out like lightning, knocking back the Fierce Tiger that had been waiting for a chance to pounce. However, although it had driven the Fierce Tiger back, the exertion tugged at the wound in its waist and abdomen, causing another large gush of blood to spill out. Its writhing intestines were faintly visible...

That previous blow had truly damaged the Brown Bear at its core.

"Roar—"

It forced out a roar, but it already revealed its outward fierceness and inner weakness. A trace of sorrow Flashed Across His Face in the Brown Bear's Eyes. It had hunted all its life, yet today it could not escape the fate of being hunted.

The two Fierce Tigers heard the weakness in the Brown Bear's roar and attacked even more frequently.

The Brown Bear retreated helplessly, one step, then another...

The Fierce Tigers pressed forward triumphantly, one step, then another...

In the muddy wild grass that none of the three demonic beasts in the field had noticed, a sudden commotion erupted. The wild grass parted, and a dark green phantom shot out. With its bloody maw wide open and a Bloody aura about it, it slammed viciously into the side of the larger Fierce Tiger.

Crash!

The instant Xu Yang lunged out, the more distant Brown Bear and the smaller Fierce Tiger had already reacted. Delight Flashed Across His Face on the Brown Bear's face, while the smaller Fierce Tiger let out a roar and tried to rescue its Companions.

"Roar!"

The sudden close-range attack gave the larger Fierce Tiger no time to react. It could only curl up as best it could to protect its vital points.

Rip!

Xu Yang did Not not take the larger Fierce Tiger's defense seriously. He had faced the attacks of countless Pale Wild Wolves in the Training Room and had been torn apart several times. Naturally, he had not come away without improvement.

Ignoring the waist and abdomen that the Fierce Tiger desperately protected, Xu Yang extended the four half-foot-long icy blades from his left forelimb and gouged at the Fierce Tiger's right eye. At the same time, his bloody maw, opened a full sixty degrees, went straight for the Fierce Tiger's neck.

He did not expect to kill the Fierce Tiger in a single blow, but after this combo, it would definitely be Severely Wounded!

"Awwoo—"

An incomparably miserable cry of pain rang out.

As expected, Xu Yang forcibly gouged out the enormous tiger eye, and four sharp holes were left in the Fierce Tiger's neck!

Xu Yang did not Engage in Prolonged Battle. Seeing that he had gained the advantage, he withdrew, using the Fierce Tiger's struggling force to retreat and avoid the smaller Fierce Tiger's reinforcements.

Thud!

After retreating a hundred meters, the field was now divided into three sides—

The Brown Bear resting Backed By a large tree, Xu Yang standing amid the muddy wild grass, and the two Fierce Tigers, one standing and one rolling about in the grass.

More than a hundred meters separated each of the three sides. Even though Xu Yang had come to help the Brown Bear, neither of them moved closer to the other.

To put it bluntly, there was not enough trust between them.

"Roar—"

The smaller Fierce Tiger threw back its head and let out a long howl. Terrifying sound waves spread out, making the leaves on the surrounding trees rustle violently.

It hated this!

What had been an easy catch had been ruined by a wild wolf that suddenly appeared, and its older brother had even suffered such grievous injuries!

Xu Yang felt no fear when he heard the Fierce Tiger's roar. The moment they had clashed, he had judged that the larger Fierce Tiger was at the Apprentice Fifth Order, about as strong as the Pale Wild Wolves he fought in the Training Room. That meant the Brown Bear was probably also at the Apprentice Fifth Order. The two demonic beasts had fought evenly earlier, so they should have been on the same level.

As for the smaller Fierce Tiger, which had instantly dealt a heavy blow to the Brown Bear, its aura suggested that it was about as strong as Xu Yang was now—in other words, Apprentice Sixth Order.

With their strengths so close, Xu Yang was not afraid at all. He had endured the encirclement of countless enemies; this could only be called a small scene.

At that moment, the larger Fierce Tiger had managed to pull through. Flesh and blood filled its right Eye sockets in a blur, making it look incomparably savage. The bloody holes in its neck had also stopped gushing under the sealing effect of its writhing muscles... As it struggled to stand, its steps were unsteady and it looked utterly weak.

"Roar, roar, roar~~~"

The Brown Bear leaned against the tree and let out cheerful mocking laughter. It even laughed so hard that it tugged at its wounds, baring its fangs in pain.

The smaller Fierce Tiger stood In Front of its brother, its gaze flickering. Intense regret had already risen In Their Hearts. If it had not hesitated earlier and had pressed the attack while the Brown Bear was Severely Wounded, the outcome would have been very different.

Damn wild wolf!

They remained locked in a standoff, and even the air became tense.

"Aw—"

Xu Yang was impatient with such a pointless standoff. He tilted his head slightly and pointed at the Brown Bear, then pointed at the two tigers and made a pouncing, biting gesture.

"Roar!"

Excitement flickered in the Brown Bear's Eyes, and it nodded heavily. It suddenly stood up, its massive body producing cracking sounds from its joints. Blood seeped from its wounds again due to the violent movement, but it did not care in the slightest. Its eyes remained fixed on the two Fierce Tigers opposite it as it began to move forward slowly.

Seeing this, the two Fierce Tigers immediately entered a state of alert. Although their eyes were still Filled With ferocity and killing intent, it was not hard to see their wariness toward the Brown Bear, which had recovered some of its fighting strength, and the mysterious Xu Yang.

The smaller Fierce Tiger let out a low growl, Attempting to use a sound-wave attack to pressure its opponents again. However, Xu Yang had already seen through its intentions. Before the sound waves could fully form, he launched his charge first.

Rip!

Xu Yang was extremely fast, charging at the two Fierce Tigers like lightning. His target was still the larger Fierce Tiger. It was Not as good as crippling one finger than injuring ten.

The Brown Bear also charged at this moment. Its enormous body crashed toward the two Fierce Tigers like a small mountain, Attempting to crush them with its strength.

The larger Fierce Tiger's strength had declined drastically, and it did not dare face Xu Yang alone. The smaller Fierce Tiger, In order to protect its brother, also did not dare leave its position to fight. For a moment, the two Fierce Tigers were trapped in a dilemma. They exchanged glances, helplessness and despair flashing in their Eyes.

Fine hunters had now become prey.

The smaller Fierce Tiger suddenly arched its body, every muscle tightening. It wanted to withstand the Brown Bear's charge head-on!

However, it had underestimated the Brown Bear's strength!

In terms of overall strength, the Brown Bear was only at the Apprentice Fifth Order, but its power? Solidly at the Apprentice Sixth Order!

Bang!

It was like an ordinary person running into a stroke of bad luck.

The two Fierce Tigers were sent flying dozens of meters by the Brown Bear's charge, crashing heavily onto the ground. Xu Yang seized this fleeting opportunity and bit down on the larger Fierce Tiger's throat, his four fangs sinking deep into its body.

"Awwoo—"

The larger Fierce Tiger let out one final miserable cry before collapsing to the ground, completely losing all signs of life.

Resource +1

Seeing this, the smaller Fierce Tiger's Eyes Filled With madness and fury!

Its own brother had been killed right before its eyes!

It wanted revenge!

However, Xu Yang and the Brown Bear did not give it that chance.

Quickly releasing the dead larger Fierce Tiger, Xu Yang turned to face the roaring smaller Fierce Tiger. His body moved, charging toward it like a bolt of lightning. His movements were swift and fierce, and his momentum was even stronger than the Fierce Tiger's!
