That was a thousand-year Spirit Beast!
Yet it was directly knocked down by a single punch from the young man in front of him!
Even if the Phoenix-Tailed Crested Serpent was at the end of its rope, it wasn't something one person could handle.
All seven of them working together had almost let the Phoenix-Tailed Crested Serpent escape.
But the other party, alone, took down the Phoenix-Tailed Crested Serpent.
Looking at his age, he was only twelve or thirteen, yet he possessed such combat power! This astonished everyone present.
However, Zhu Zhuqing, Xiao Wu, and Ning Rongrong looked at Ye Feng with strange gazes; besides shock, there were other emotions…
Ye Feng was simply too handsome. His Dragon Clan bloodline, combined with daily absorption of Tianmeng Iceworm's life force, made Ye Feng's appearance almost perfect.
…
Zhao Wuji's pupils also constricted when he saw this scene!
Others might not have reacted, but he clearly knew that the opponent's punch just now was pure physical strength, without using any Spirit Ability!
What kind of concept is this…
Just by using his physical body, he killed a thousand-year Spirit Beast!
He thought back to his youth, even if he had tried his best, he wouldn't have been able to do it!
What exactly is this little fellow who suddenly appeared??
He considered Tang San and the others to be monsters among monsters, but he never expected that now someone even more monstrous than Tang San would appear.
This is outrageous!
Ye Feng ignored the stunned expressions of the others and walked straight towards the Phoenix-Tailed Crested Serpent.
He had previously won a purple attribute called [Chef King] in a lottery, which not only gave him excellent cooking skills but also made him exceptionally sensitive to ingredients.
His intuition told him that if this Phoenix-Tailed Crested Serpent was braised, it would be incredibly delicious!
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but drool a little at the Phoenix-Tailed Crested Serpent.
As for his hunting of Spirit Beasts, neither Silver Dragon King nor Di Tian would object.
After all, for powerful Spirit Beasts, weaker Spirit Beasts were naturally food, not kin.
Especially carnivorous Spirit Beasts, while cultivation can reduce the need for eating, they still require extra supplementation.
Only vegetarian Spirit Beasts like Xiao Wu would consider most weak Spirit Beasts as friends and be reluctant to kill.
"Stop!"
"Don't move!"
Just then, two different voices came simultaneously from two directions.
The first voice came from Tang San.
The second voice came from the dense forest to the west.
The sudden appearance of a third party made everyone's gaze turn towards the dense forest in the west.
The next moment, the dense forest slowly parted, and two figures, one large and one small, walked out from within.
The two were one old and one young, both female.
The older one looked sixty or seventy years old, with a head full of white hair, but she appeared rosy-cheeked and very energetic. Her eyes gleamed, and her right hand held a three-meter-long snake-head staff. Six spirit rings pulsed up and down around her body.
Beside the old woman was a beautiful young girl with short, ear-length hair, looking sixteen or seventeen years old. She wore a neat, fitted outfit that tightly hugged her well-developed figure.
Her deep brown eyes were fixed on the Phoenix-Tailed Crested Serpent at Ye Feng's feet, and two hundred-year spirit rings behind her rose and fell with her breathing, clearly indicating her displeasure at the moment.
The old woman hadn't seen Ye Feng make his move and assumed he was with Zhao Wuji. Combined with the seven spirit rings behind Zhao Wuji, the old woman became a little wary, so she slightly lowered her posture and said, "Your Excellency, this Phoenix-Tailed Crested Serpent was discovered by us first. Can you let us have it?"
"Oh? May I ask, Senior, who you are…"
Zhao Wuji didn't argue but frowned slightly, feeling that the old woman in front of him looked familiar.
"I am Chao Tianxiang. Thanks to the friends in the Spirit Master's world who think highly of me, they've given me the title 'Snake Woman'."
Chao Tianxiang smiled slightly.
Although she said this, her tone still revealed a hint of pride and threat.
"Could it be the one from the Peerless Dragon Snake?" Zhao Wuji was startled when he heard this.
The Peerless Dragon Snake, individually, was already very strong. Working together, they had few rivals below the Titled Douluo rank.
Since Snake Woman was here, Dragon Duke must be nearby, so he was naturally a bit wary.
"Indeed, it is I. May I ask for the esteemed Spirit Saint's name?"
"Zhao Wuji."
Zhao Wuji spoke indifferently.
"It's the Immovable King, my apologies!" Chao Tianxiang felt a chill in her heart when she heard this, having naturally heard of Zhao Wuji's notorious reputation.
He was a wanted man by Spirit Hall, so he was certainly not someone to be trifled with.
After exchanging pleasantries, Chao Tianxiang finally spoke, "Your Excellency, Immovable King, this Phoenix-Tailed Crested Serpent was discovered by us first, and we injured it. It just got away due to a moment of carelessness. My granddaughter is only sixteen and has just reached level 30, so she greatly needs this Phoenix-Tailed Crested Serpent. Could Your Excellency please let us have it?"
"On what—"
No mistake, no omission, every word, every content at a glance!
Oscar was about to ask 'on what grounds', but Zhao Wuji stopped him. He looked at Chao Tianxiang and said with a half-smile, "Heh heh, Sister Chao, you must have misunderstood. This Phoenix-Tailed Crested Serpent was not defeated by us, but by this young friend. You should ask him instead."
Zhao Wuji was also an experienced veteran.
Knowing that Ye Feng, at such a young age, possessed such strength, his background must be extremely powerful, and he must have very terrifying elders protecting him, though they hadn't appeared yet.
So he wasn't in a hurry to argue with the old woman; instead, he let the old woman test the young man's background first.
"What, this kid isn't yours?"
Sure enough, as Zhao Wuji's words fell, Chao Tianxiang's heart immediately jolted, and her gaze instinctively fell on Ye Feng.
"Alright, alright, everyone, stop arguing. Since you all want this Phoenix-Tailed Crested Serpent, how about a competition? Whoever wins gets it."
Ye Feng suggested with a smile.
"I agree to that. This is their opportunity, so let them fight for it themselves." Zhao Wuji was naturally indifferent and was the first to agree.
But in fact, he had already given up on the Phoenix-Tailed Crested Serpent, as he couldn't defeat the elders behind the other party, and the few people he brought couldn't defeat that kid. This was a guaranteed loss.
However, although he didn't have much hope, he still wanted to see the gap between his students and the other party.
Of course, it was also a test.
After all, he felt that the old woman Chao Tianxiang would definitely lose and then refuse to admit it. At that time, if the elder behind the young man made a move, it would be interesting…
Although the legendary Peerless Dragon Snake was strong, facing the elder behind this young man, it might be tough…
Of course, these were all just Zhao Wuji's conjectures.
In reality, Ye Feng truly had no elders behind him.
Before Ye Feng awakened his Spirit, he already possessed the combat power of a ten-thousand-year Spirit Beast.
Now that he had awakened his Spirit, easily crushing a mere Spirit Emperor Chao Tianxiang was no big deal, so he naturally had nothing to fear.
If Snake Woman called over Dragon Duke, then Ye Feng could only let Titan Giant Ape make a move, and then let Titan Giant Ape 'accidentally' kill the two of them; it wouldn't be too late.
The reason for the competition was simply because he found it interesting and wanted to test Tang San's skills.
That's all.
As for Chao Tianxiang's granddaughter, Meng Yiran…
Although her figure was good, her looks were average. Ye Feng truly didn't care about something he could punch to death.
