Elite Training Camp.

Jiang Fang looked at the report in her hands with a complex expression.

On the report were all the monster materials Fang Yi had hunted, collected, and submitted over the past week or so.

Over a dozen Lord Rank monsters.

Hundreds of Advanced War General monsters.

Several thousand Intermediate War General monsters, along with various others...

The entire list could be summarized in one sentence: Fang Yi had gone on a killing spree on the Australia Continent, not even bothering to pretend, fully displaying his true personal strength.

These materials, when added together, had a value reaching hundreds of billions of Huaxia Currency.

"This little guy Fang Yi, his strength is probably already approaching an Advanced War God..." Jiang Fang looked at the report and smiled helplessly.

"Teacher Jiang, what are you smiling so happily about?"

Nearby, Zhao Ruo brought Luo Feng to the Blade Technique Training Camp, just in time to run into Jiang Fang, who was preparing to leave.

"It's nothing, it's just that the kid Fang Yi has made a name for himself. Once this report gets out, our Huaxia will have gained another War God."

Upon hearing Jiang Fang's words, both of them were quite surprised.

Zhao Ruo asked with a trembling, incredulous voice: "Fang Yi has become a War God? So fast..."

She hadn't expected that he had only entered the Elite Training Camp three or four months ago, but upon closer reflection, she realized that with his strength, it would be strange if he weren't a War God.

Perhaps by the time he left, he had already stepped over the threshold of a War God.

Otherwise, it would have been impossible for him to take first place so easily.

After all, those in the top 10 of the rankings had already stepped over the threshold of a War God, or were preparing to do so.

"Fang Yi hunted over a dozen Lord Rank monsters on the Australia Continent; his strength is at least that of an Intermediate War God. At this rate, it wouldn't be surprising if he surpassed the War Gods and even became the third person under Thunder God and Hong."

"You two should also learn from Fang Yi. Setting aside his talent, he is truly a freak when it comes to cultivation. After all, he has already cleared the 5th floor of the Trial Tower, and his combat experience, techniques, and force exertion are all far ahead of the rest."

Zhao Ruo nodded earnestly.

Luo Feng, meanwhile, became even more determined in his own cultivation convictions. He had originally felt that he was working hard enough, but after hearing others' evaluations of Fang Yi and learning about his cultivation methods, Luo Feng felt that his own training intensity was still not enough.

The two then bid farewell to Jiang Fang and continued to practice their blade techniques with great effort.

Time shifted and stars moved; time flew by.

April 20th.

Fang Yi had been out adventuring for a full month.

He had fought his way from the outskirts of the Australia Continent all the way to its center.

The monster materials he had obtained during this time were countless; to him, Huaxia Currency could now only be considered a number.

The amount he had earned in a single month already exceeded what some War Gods earned in years, or even over a decade.

Central Australia Continent.

Around a small lake.

An Advanced Lord Rank Aurora Lightning Python, Spiked Giant Badger, Tyrant Crocodile Dragon, and Devouring Giant Moth were gathered.

Along with four other Advanced Lord Rank Ghost-Faced Spider monsters.

Lord Rank monsters rarely gathered together, let alone those of different species.

"Hiss, hiss, hiss—"

The Aurora Lightning Python spoke of a brutal human who had appeared on the outskirts over the past month, continuously hunting monsters.

The Tyrant Crocodile Dragon also indicated that what the Aurora Lightning Python said was true, as it was aware of the matter. After all, many of its own kind had died at the hands of that detestable human.

It had only managed to escape by luck; had it not been for a fellow Lord Rank companion helping it stall for time, it would never have escaped that man's clutches.

"Roar—"

The Spiked Giant Badger, therefore, gathered the other beasts, demanding that they call upon other Lord Rank monsters and their tribes to ambush and kill this terrifying human.

After all, this human had already killed his way from the outskirts to the interior.

Soon, he would arrive at their territory.

"Click, click, click—"

The four Ghost-Faced Spiders asked if any of them knew the human's specific route and location.

That way, they could set up spiderweb traps to ensnare that War God.

"Hmph, hmph—"

Just then, the Tyrant Pig Dragon indicated that it knew the man's location.

Even the specific route was known.

The Ghost-Faced Spider nodded in satisfaction after hearing this and had the Tyrant Crocodile Dragon reveal the location, so they immediately began setting traps.

The various beasts all turned their gazes toward the Tyrant Crocodile Dragon.

But they only saw the latter lower its head to look at the lake where everyone was gathered...

With a sudden "splash," the surface of the lake violently exploded!

A purple figure flashed out abruptly.

As the water spray dissipated, a human was seen standing on a Flying Sword, hovering above the beasts—

"Are you talking about me?"

The words finished.

Over a dozen Divine Light Flying Needles immediately flew out, carrying bursts of sonic booms as they suddenly streaked through the air to attack!

"Hiss, hiss, hiss—!!"

Seeing this scene, the Aurora Lightning Python's snake eyes widened in shock.

While dodging the Flying Needle attacks along with the other monsters, it looked at the Tyrant Crocodile Dragon with dissatisfaction, questioning why it hadn't mentioned that this human was living in the lake.

However, they only saw that.

The Tyrant Crocodile Dragon was currently biting a Ghost-Faced Spider in its mouth, performing a death roll to completely tear its body apart.

These Lord Rank monsters were not stupid; they clearly knew that the Tyrant Crocodile Dragon had turned traitor.

They just didn't understand why this guy would defect to a human.

What exactly did that human give it? They weren't even the same species, so why was it willing to do this?

But the speed of the surrounding Flying Needles was so fast that even these Lord Rank monsters found it difficult to escape their tracking. Coupled with their limbs being pierced, if they hadn't resisted desperately and dodged, their heads and hearts would have long since been pierced by the needles.

Fang Yi held his War Halberd, shuttling back and forth like a purple meteor.

Coordinating with the Flying Needles and Flying Sword, he slaughtered all these monsters—which made many high-level War Gods tremble with fear—with incredible ease!

Above the small lake, a rain of blood fell in an instant.

One piece of monster carcass after another fell into the lake, creating countless ripples and gradually dyeing half the lake surface red.

In the surrounding area.

Some low-level monsters that had been hiding.

Did not escape Fang Yi's clutches either, all perishing within it.

He controlled the Flying Needles to begin cutting up the monster bodies to collect materials, reporting the situation at the same time.

When the Training Camp support personnel inspected these materials, they all discovered that the cell activity in the torsos of these monsters had ceased at the exact same time.

Clearly, Fang Yi had taken care of seven Lord Rank monsters in a single round, and they were high-level ones at that.

The support personnel and material collection staff immediately reported the situation.

Dojo Master Hong only smiled faintly after hearing this.

Although the Australia Continent was vast.

Because dozens of Lord Rank monsters and countless monsters below the Lord Rank had perished in a short period of time, such an event naturally attracted the attention of other King Rank monsters and the various human government Alliances.

But by the time they discovered it, the Limit Dojo had already issued a public notice.

"A new War God has appeared among humans, and it's a War God who killed seven Lord Rank monsters all by himself!"

"What! A War God who killed seven Lord Rank monsters alone? You aren't joking, are you?"

"If you don't believe me, look for yourself; that's the information released by the Limit Dojo."

"Holy crap, it's real!"

"What is this War God's name?"

"It seems to be... Fang Yi?"

"Fang Yi? Did I hear that right? Could it be that genius from the Limit Dojo from half a year ago? How much time has passed? How could he have already reached the War God level!"
