In the vast mountains and forests, Su Mo was always watching every direction. He was hunting demonic beasts while he tried to find traces of Wu Kui and the others.
Along the way, Su Mo ran across a couple of disciples who were hunting demonic beasts alone.
Their cultivation was all at Lv 7 or Lv 8 Qi Cultivation Realm, which was not high compared with Su Mo's, so when feeling Su Mo's cultivation, they hurriedly ran away at once like the frightened birds.
Su Mo felt speechless about that. He did not run after them to make a robbery because it was not significant for Su Mo.
So far, Su Mo had gotten many Demonic Cores, and almost 150 of their levels were above Class 7 Lv 1.
By such a score, 150 Demonic Cores, he could definitely be in the front rank.
However, Wu Kui and other three geniuses had roped a lot of disciples in. The speed that they got Demonic Cores was certainly far beyond him.
Thus, only to rob them could Su Mo get the first place in this trial test.
If other disciples knew what Su Mo was thinking, they would agree with Li Feng that Su Mo had been out of his mind.
A martial artist of the Qi Cultivation Realm was going to plunder a martial artist of the Spiritual Martial Realm? Besides, most of them were in the Spiritual Martial Realm, but he was alone.
However, Su Mo was confident in his own abilities without any fear.
It would not be a problem for Su Mo to be their enemy. Su Mo was very clear that Wu Kui and Yan Qi had wanted to kill him long ago, so if there was a chance to kill them, Su Mo would do it without hesitation.
Having searched for about an hour in the mountains and forests, Su Mo did not find any trace of Wu Kui or the others. He could not start his robbery plan, which made him feel depressed.
"If encountering other disciples, I'll ask them!" Su Mo said in his heart.
"Hum?"
At this moment, Su Mo heard an insolent and indistinct laughter from far away.
"Were they Wu Kui, Huang Yunqing, and their fellows?"
Su Mo's eyes lightened. He immediately pulled back his breath and cautiously rushed toward the place where the laughter came.
Su Mo behaved very carefully although he was not afraid of Wu Kui and his men. After all, there were two martial artists of the Spiritual Martial Realm among them. His cautious action was very necessary.
Soon Su Mo saw a group of young men.
However, they were not Wu Kui and his followers.
At this moment, a young man in purple was surrounded by nine juniors in an opening place among the trees.
Among the nine teenagers, the lowest one was even at Lv 8 Qi Cultivation Realm and three of them were at Lv 9.
Su Mo knew one of them, Yan Xing, who was a disciple of the Yan clan, the same as Yan Qi. Yan Xing was also one of the three people of Lv 9.
The young man they encircled was also at Lv 9. However, he had a pale face with a trace of blood hanging from his lips. Obviously, after a conflict with them, he was hurt.
"Haha! Zhou Xin, now here are three options for you. First, hand over all of your Demonic Cores. Second, pay allegiance to brother Yan Qi, but also hand over Demonic Cores. Third, we'll kill you, and then plunder all your belongings."
At this point, Yan Xing made an insolent laughter again with an arrogant face.
Zhou Xin looked depressed. He was at the Peak Lv 9 Qi Cultivation Realm and any of them could not defeat him. But two fists were no match for four fists, and he was injured by one joint strike from them.
"Guys, although Yan Qi is powerful, you're also geniuses. Are you willing to be driven by him?" Zhou Xin did not answer Yan Xing, but looked at the several people standing by Yan Xing and seriously asked.
"Zhou Xin, our talents are far worse than brother Yan Qi's. Only brother Yan Qi can help us realize our ambitions in Gale Island," a stony-faced junior next to Yan Xing said.
"Only Yan Qi can help you realize your ambitions?"
Zhou Xin disdainfully smiled and shook his head. "Wang Lei, as a genius, you're actually willing to be a lackey for others. Shame on you!"
Zhou Xin looked down upon these people. When choosing to yield, they had no dignities anymore.
"You're asking to die!"
Hearing the words, the stony-faced junior was enraged. He was going to kill Zhou Xin.
"Well, Zhou Xin, if you want to know why they sought refuge with brother Yan Qi, I can tell you why, and this is also a chance for you."
Yan Xing shook his head to stop the stony-faced junior and said to Zhou Xin. "Because, as long as they go and seek refuge with brother Yan Qi, they can join Sky Alliance."
"Joining Sky Alliance?"
Zhou Xin was stunned for a moment but then understood.
Su Mo did not hide far away. When he heard the words of Yan Xing, a wisp of bright light flashed in his eyes.
He did not expect that Yan Qi actually had such a big energy.
It was by the power of Sky Alliance that he could rope so many people in.
Su Mo had heard of Sky Alliance.
Sky Alliance was an organization among the disciples in Gale Island, and its force was very powerful.
Gale Island had more than 10,000 disciples. And it also had no fewer than 100 large and small groups, among which Sky Alliance was the most powerful.
Countless disciples were proud to join Sky Alliance, and countless disciples had always dreamed to join Sky Alliance.
The leader of Sky Alliance was the first core disciple, Duan Jingtian.
Duan Jingtian's achievement was just like the meaning of his name. With a great cultivation and an excellent talent, he was the pride of Gale Island, adored by numerous disciples.
It was said that his Martial Soul was the Earth Class Martial Soul, and he had reached the Spiritual Martial Realm at 12. Moreover, he had broken through the Spiritual Martial Realm into the True Spirit Realm at 20.
Now, he was only 22, but he had been invincible among all the disciples in Gale Island.
Duan Jingtian and other three peerless geniuses from other three big Sects were known as "Four Talents of Skymoon Country". They had been well-known throughout Skymoon Country.
Su Mo had heard of the fame of Four Talents of Skymoon Country a long time ago, but since Sunnywood City was remote and uninformed, there was little news about them.
After coming to Gale Island, Su Mo knew that Duan Jingtian, the first core disciple of Gale Island, was one of them, ranking the third place among them.
As an organization created by Duan Jingtian, Sky Alliance was greatly reputable in Gale Island and was a great attraction for the ordinary disciples.
Su Mo shook his head. Now that Yan Qi had promised such a good benefit, no wonder many disciples were willing to follow him.
"Zhou Xin, the elder brother of Senior Brother Yan Qi is an Inner Disciple, and he's also an important member of Sky Alliance. If you join us, you'll also become a member of Sky Alliance. Don't miss the chance."
At this time, another person also tried to persuade Zhou Xin, and he was obviously familiar with Zhou Xin.
"If joining you, I'll be a member of Sky Alliance?"
Hearing that, Zhou Xin raised his eyebrows and struggled in his heart.
He really wanted to join Sky Alliance, but as a martial artist, he had always upheld the belief that he would rather die than yield, and that he fearlessly and bravely moved forward.
But now, if he yielded to join Sky Alliance, it would go against his belief in his martial arts.
However, to be a member of Sky Alliance was a big temptation for him.
Struggling for a long time in his heart, at last, Zhou Xin bit his teeth, shook his head, and said, "I won't go and seek refuge with Yan Qi. If I want to join Sky Alliance in the future, I'll make it by my own abilities."
Zhou Xin's voice was very firm. He could not go against his belief in his martial arts, and he was also confident of his talent.
