Counterattack!

Generally speaking, martial warriors were strictly forbidden from killing one another.

After all, humanity was at a disadvantage against the monsters.

There were far too few human martial warriors on Earth!

Only five major nations remained on the entire planet.

There were only a few dozen base cities, too.

Of all the land on Earth, humans currently occupied only a tiny fraction.

Compared to before the Great Nirvana, it was pitifully little!

To reclaim more territory from the monsters, humanity would have to train more martial warriors.

Under these circumstances, every martial warrior was precious.

That was why every nation and the Two Great Dojos had rules forbidding martial warriors from killing one another.

But out in the wilderness, it still happened.

Usually, though, no one let word get out.

Because once it did, the martial warrior team responsible would have its reputation ruined.

They might even face punishment.

If the things Xiao Yang and his companions were carrying hadn't been so valuable this time,

the White Elephant Martial Warrior Team wouldn't have attacked.

Although City 092 lay within what had once been China,

some monsters could only be found in certain places.

As such, powerful fighters from various countries sometimes traveled to other nations' territories to hunt monsters.

Looking at the sniper lying on the ground, the middle-aged man beside him frowned and said,

"No, he's a psychic."

"It's too open here. If he flies over, he'll spot us easily."

"If we can't take him out first, our chances of getting those materials aren't very good."

"So we'd better leave."

The White Elephant Martial Warrior Team had eight members in total.

Although four of them were advanced warlords, they had already witnessed Xiao Yang's strength.

They didn't want to fight him head-on.

That was precisely why they had tried a sneak attack.

Psychics were simply terrifying!

The others chimed in.

"Exactly. I don't want to face that psychic from China."

"That psychic is terrifying!"

"His throwing knives are practically impossible to guard against!"

Hearing that, the sniper didn't insist.

He hurriedly put away his specially made sniper rifle, which was over two meters long.

The group quickly left.

"I wonder if that sniper is still watching this spot."

"Let's hide for a bit. It's hard to guard against an attack you can't see coming!"

"They definitely can't see us here. Let's get under the highway and head back to the military camp!"

"Right. Once we're at the camp, they won't dare attack."

As experienced martial warriors, they had heard of such incidents before.

But this was their first time encountering one themselves.

With such valuable materials on their backs, they preferred to return to the military camp first.

Xiao Yang, however, thought otherwise.

The sniper rifle's bullets weren't as fast as his throwing knives.

The others had failed to react mainly because the bullets traveled faster than sound.

Otherwise, if they had seen them coming or someone had warned them, they could have reacted and dodged in time.

That was also why powerful fighters rarely used sniper rifles.

Without hesitation, he took off his backpack and retrieved the throwing knives inside.

"Watch my backpack for me. I'm going back to see who they are!"

"With my psychic power, their bullets can't hit me."

With that, Xiao Yang flew straight into the sky.

Zhang Yi had wanted to stop him, but seeing Xiao Yang shoot into the air, he said nothing more.

"I hope Xiao Yang catches them!"

"Those bastards! How dare they attack us so close to the military camp!"

"I'd better not find out who they are, or I'll expose them for sure!"

The members of the Mad Wolf Squad were furious.

Who could have imagined that they would come through their battles with monsters unscathed,

only to nearly die under a human sniper's rifle when they were almost back at the military camp!

Anyone would have been furious!

Once Xiao Yang was in the air, he flew straight toward the direction the bullets had come from.

He immediately pushed his speed to the limit.

At full speed, Xiao Yang was truly a terrifying sight.

Over the past few days, his strength had increased by more than a thousand kilograms.

His psychic power had improved as well.

As a result, his flying speed had increased considerably.

An ordinary advanced warlord running on the ground couldn't match his speed in the air.

Xiao Yang covered several kilometers in only a few dozen seconds.

From above, he immediately spotted several figures running below.

The members of the White Elephant Martial Warrior Team spotted Xiao Yang in the sky as well.

At the sight of him, they stopped running.

They knew that trying to outrun a psychic of the same rank was incredibly foolish.

How could someone running on the ground possibly keep up with someone flying?

"Who are you?"

Xiao Yang looked down at them, his eyes filled with fury.

After all, those shots had mainly been aimed at him.

If he hadn't made a habit of spreading his psychic power around himself, he would have been in serious trouble!

The thought of what had nearly happened still frightened him.

Although they couldn't kill him, Xiao Yang would have had no choice but to hide in the Game World to be safe.

If anyone saw that, it would have been difficult to explain.

Without his psychic power spread around him, a bullet might have been dangerously close by the time he detected it.

At that point, even Xiao Yang would have struggled to dodge it completely.

His best option would have been to hide in the Game World.

Seeing him, the captain of the White Elephant Martial Warrior Team had no choice but to step forward and say helplessly,

"Sorry, this was a misunderstanding."

"We can offer you some compensation. How does that sound?"

It would be very difficult for the White Elephant Martial Warrior Team to kill Xiao Yang.

After all, he was a psychic.

They could only accept their bad luck and offer compensation.

The killing intent in Xiao Yang's eyes grew stronger.

Three throwing knives suddenly shot out from his body, hurtling toward the members of the White Elephant Martial Warrior Team.

"Compensate my f***ing ass!"

"F*** you!"

"F***!"

How could Xiao Yang possibly accept compensation?

They had tried to kill him. There was no way he would let that slide.

He didn't descend, instead controlling his throwing knives from the air to attack them.

His strength as a martial warrior had only reached the intermediate warlord level.

His best option right now was to attack them from above.

"He's alone! We just have to hold out until his psychic power runs dry!"

"It won't be easy for him to kill us!"

"Hold on, everyone!"

The captain of the White Elephant Martial Warrior Team addressed the others.

This martial warrior team was experienced, too.

They immediately clustered together, standing back-to-back to defend against Xiao Yang's throwing knives.

With only three throwing knives to contend with, defending was relatively easy.

Xiao Yang watched the White Elephant Martial Warrior Team below, cursing as he thought of a way to deal with them.

With only three throwing knives, killing them really would be troublesome.

After all, there were eight of them, and four were advanced warlords.
