Upon hearing this, the others did not think him arrogant; on the contrary, they felt it was only natural.
This shows that everyone is very confident in his Lightfoot skills.
“Alright, disperse, don’t get hurt by that beast!”
Li Hu led the others away, leaving the field to the fifth brother.
At the same time, everyone paid full attention and guessing what kind of king level monster the fifth brother had lured out.
The leaves on the distant trees shook non-stop, as if a strong wind was blowing through.
The next second, a cheetah only one meter tall emerged.
“Hahahaha! so small?! Even elite level monster is bigger!”
In their imagination, a king-level monster should have the size of the two-headed ox-snake beast that Zhao Yu had pulled.
It should be at least six meters up to ten meters in range, they had already set their expectations.
However, the king -level beast that ran out was only one meter tall.
But the next second, the strategist scholar even turned his head and roared loudly.
“s.h.i.t! Help!”
The cheetah was extremely fast, covering the hundred meters in an instant, leaving only afterimages behind.
The originally confident fifth brother was so frightened once he saw its size and fled immediately.
“Boss, should we step in…” someone asked in a low voice.
Li Hu without hesitated shouted, “Brothers, shoot it!”
Upon hearing this, all brothers quickly drew the bow, but was unable to release the arrow for a long time.
“It’s moving too fast, I can’t lock on it…”
“Antic.i.p.ate, antic.i.p.ate, just disturb it!”
Li Hu and the others said while also stepping back a bit, fearing that getting too close would provoke the cheetah.
Compare to the tremendous size monster chasing after Zhao Yu, the cheetah was even smaller than average human made everyone have underestimated this king-level monster.
“Whoosh!”
With so many arrows shot out and not even single one hit the cheetah.
The distant cheetah merely glanced sideways and continued to chase the fifth brother.
By the time it ran past, the arrow had barely landed where it had just stepped.
“Not Good! Keep firing! Continue! Don’t stop”
All brothers quickly reloaded and kept firing.
But no matter how hard they tried, they couldn’t interrupt the distance between the cheetah and the fifth brother.
“Fifth brother, be careful!”
Someone shouted.
The fifth brother, running ahead also felt the wind behind him.
He understood that he couldn’t escape with speed alone.
With this thought, he steeled his heart, suddenly turned around, and decided to fight with his knife.
Perhaps, the cheetah was only fast and might have weak defenses.
“Swish—!”
Before everyone could see clearly, the fifth brother was instantly on the ground.
The cheetah’s sharp claw had already broken his neck, and he died in the blink of an eye.
“Hiss—!”
Everyone gasped and stepped back a few more steps.
The brothers who had been shooting arrows was even more startled and quickly hid behind Li Hu.
After the cheetah killed the fifth brother, it glanced back at the crowd, paid them no heed, and hurriedly returned the way it had come.
At that moment, everyone felt as if their feet were nailed to the ground, not daring to move, not even daring to breathe heavily.
It was only after the cheetah had returned to the south of the boundary road and completely disappeared from everyone’s sight that someone finally spoke up.
“Fifth brother, he…”
“Oh No!! He is dead!”
The horror in Li Hu’s eyes had not faded. He hadn’t expected the monster summoned this time to be so fast and so strong.
The group moved to the fifth brother’s body and found his head severed from his body, dead beyond doubt.
“Gulp!”
Someone swallowed saliva.
“Boss, should we summon the next king beast?!”
“Summon my a.s.s!”
Li Hu shivered. It had been a long time since he had experienced such a life-or-death situation.
Since becoming the boss of the Tiger Howl Gang, he had never encountered such a dangerous situation.
“What if… What if the next king beast is something like the two-headed ox-snake beast?!”
“Huh?! Who could guarantee it? And who dare to do it now!”
Li Hu scoffed, posing the question back.
No one dared to meet his gaze.
Before the pattern of ultimate fighters returning to the newbie zone to summon king beasts was well investigated, no one dared to take the risk.
“It seems…”
“That Fake Xiao Long is really lucky…”
“Yes, just happened to encounter a king-level monster that wasn’t fast…”
The group lamented for a while and buried the fifth brother’s body right there before leaving.
From then on, they dared not think about targeting king-level monster again, even if they were envious of Zhao Yu utilizing king-level monster to hunt commander-level monsters, they could only watch.
There were a few forces like the Tiger Howl Gang that tempted king-level monster out.
But the outcomes were almost the same.
Some were lucky enough to outrun the king-level monster but were killed halfway through.
Others managed to escape to the protective film but they were devoured by first-tier creatures, leaving no trace of their bodies.
Several forces envious of Zhao Yu attempted to summon king beasts but all failed.
When this news spread, the inner circle of forces was shocked.
People then realized that Xiao Xiao Long’s escape from the king-level monster was not entirely due to luck, but truly because he had the skill to foreseen any incoming attack.
Beside a lake, some were fishing, some swimming and frolicking, and others bathing in the water, creating a lively scene.
This was the new stronghold of two factions.
After nearly twenty days of development, the Academy faction and the Ancient Martial Arts faction together had twenty-three ultimate fighters, and counting Zhao Yu, totaling twenty-four..
