"Marvin, what do you think of him?" As soon as Sam left, Philip asked the third person in the team. He had combat gloves fitted on his hands.
"I think he's amazing. He's fit to be a warrior who focuses on grappling techniques." Said a man named Marvin. "Killing a blazing earth bull while in the initiation stage is pretty good, even with guerrilla tactics is not bad at all." He continued after a little pause.
"No, he killed her with one strike." Haley said from the side.
"What's? Impossible. The difference in strength is huge." Marvin said in surprise.
"There was no damage to any other body part of the corpse except the head. Not just looking around. There was no sign of the bull using a fire-type attack. That means only one thing. He killed her before it could even be used. His fire attack." Haley explained. Hearing that they were all observing their surroundings and they realized what he was saying was true.
"We have to follow him. If he's from the village, we should try to recruit him early. So that our faction can have other experts in the school." Philip said and they all started moving towards the village. Even Paul followed reluctantly.
.........
The situation is like this in the forest. The situation in the Village Chief's house could not be said to be the same. Oliver was angry as he looked into the leather pouch in his hand. The bag was filled with transparent glass like a stone. They were none other than spirit stones whose spiritual energy was completely depleted. The leather pouch is exactly what Sam gave Oliver's henchmen. Oliver simply threw his bag furiously and started walking out of the mansion. The two men followed him too. They were really afraid that this spoiled village chief's son had never been this angry. After he saw the pouch, he didn't even speak anything but immediately started walking towards Sam's house.
Arriving at Sam's house, he saw the house locked and soon they broke into the house and began thrashing the place and all the cloths that were ready to be sold were destroyed. After completely thrashing through everything they did outside, they saw many people surrounding the house as they whispered.
"See that. Sam must have offended this spoiled village chief's son. Oliver's on a rampage again."
"Sst, you're crazy. He'll give you trouble if he hears it."
"What if he hears it? I'm just stating the facts."
"Where's Sam?" Oliver roared at the people. Everyone was silent for a moment. At this moment Michael walked over by pushing the crowd aside. When he saw the mess, he became angry.
"Oliver, what do you mean by this? Even though you are the son of the village chief, you are not immune to the law." Michael said out loud.
"I'll do whatever I want. What if I destroy an ordinary person's place? Even if I kill him, he must accept it with a smile." Oliver roars. The crowd became an uproar. More than half of the villagers are here. With this the village guards also came. When they heard Oliver's words, they were all dumbfounded. Just when the guards wanted to make a move to take Oliver away, the crowd all started to give way. When the road was cleared, they all saw Sam walking towards his house with a giant bull on his shoulder.
When Sam sees Oliver and his henchmen and then the state of his house, he is instantly enraged. This time Oliver also saw Sam, but his expression was different. Looking at the giant bull, he understood one thing. 'Sam started cultivating. And he's also high-level.' He understood this because he clearly recognized the corpse of the bull. That's the bull he used to kill Sam. He could only gulp after seeing Sam's appearance. Before he could get out of his daze. Sam's moving. Sam dropped the corpse and released his aura. He quickly moved one of the two henchmen behind Oliver. He grabbed the back of the man's neck and slammed his face directly into the ground.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhh" the man screeched miserably. But Sam didn't stop at all. He stood up and stepped on the man on his back and grabbed his arm. Sam made his other arm like a knife and shopped on the man's arm.
*crack*s heard a crack and bone piercing out of the skin. But it's not over yet. Sam was again chopped and another cracking sound was heard "Ahhhhh Ahhhhhhhhh, please I apologize, leave me alone, leave me alone. Please let me go." The man whose arm was broken started pleading.
"It's very slow." Sam coldly replied and a scene that shocked the entire crowd occurred. Sam grabbed the bone that was piercing out the side of the skin and directly pulled it. A bone appeared in his hand. The man under his feet fainted from pain. Before anyone can digest what happened. Sam jumped towards another errand boy and pinned the man down.
The henchman came out of his daze and he immediately began to beg. Please Sam the initiation stage warrior. But they're afraid of Sam. Looking at his speed and strength, they felt like they would send themselves to death if they fought. So they started persuading.
"Sam, leave him alone. It's a crime." A guard said.
"Shut your mouth. Where were you when they robbed my house. If you speak one more word. You'll be next." Sam said in a cold voice and as soon as he finished, he stabbed the bone in his hand diagonally from under the ribs of the minions below him.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.." The messenger screamed in pain. He tries to fight his way out of clutches but Sam stays on it like a mountain. Then Sam immediately kicked the bone outside with his knee. The whole bone disappeared. Even the blood stopped flowing out as the bones blocked it. The messenger fainted.
This scene caused goosebumps on the backs of all the spectators. Everyone felt their hair standing on their necks. This time there was only one thought in their minds. 'Too cruel.' They all thought this Sam was a very good person because he was so humble. But now they felt like they had just seen her for the first time. That evil handsome face felt so foreign to them. Sam then got up and slowly started walking towards Oliver, with a cold expression on his face. His aura was too strong so Oliver
"W-what do you want to do?" Oliver looked at Sam and asked in a trembling voice. He's scared now. He would never have thought that 'trash' would scare him like this. He regrets his actions now.
"Young man, don't you know how to salute your boss." Another middle-aged man said to Sam from the side. He was the official in the village who was responsible for collecting taxes from the villagers. He is the magician of Acolyte Peak. Sam didn't notice. He simply stared straight at the Village Chief coldly without saying a word. The office was angry. Just when he was about to say something. The village chief stopped him and asked the guards nearby. "What's going on?"
A guard came forward and respectfully said everything about the situation without hiding any truth. Because, so many people saw what happened it was impossible to lie. The expressions of the village chief grew increasingly unsightly the more he heard the situation. Then he looked at his son with disappointment on his face. Then he looked at Sam and the bull's corpse and said. "You broke through."
Sam did not reply instead he released an aura.
"Initiation of the ninth stage." The village chief muttered in a low voice and then continued. "As far as I can remember you can't cultivate. How do you do it?"
Sam still did not answer. The village chief asked again. He pointed at the two unconscious minions on the ground asking. "Although young people have disagreements, should you be this cruel."
"Where were you when they broke my shop? Where were you when they beat me up in the village. Where were you when they tried to plot and kill me? don't talk if you don't know." said Sam.
"How dare you talk to me, village chief like that?" the village chief roared furiously. He let go of his aura and began to put pressure on Sam. Sam started sweating profusely and his legs started shaking. But he still looked at the village chief directly and replied.
“What do you remember, you are the village chief? Then I pay 10 percent of my taxes every month and I get beaten up by these two guys and threatened by your son. Now they're thrashing my house and he said he'd kill me?" The village chief soon lost his patience and would move. Just then, a voice came from a distance.
"A 10 percent tax? Village chief I think according to the royal rules there is only a 5 percent tax system. And you a novice magician will still attack a junior at the initiation stage because he is asking for the taxes he paid." Everyone turned to the direction of the voice and looked at the four people in expensive war clothes. When the village chief saw them, he immediately paled. And stand there dumbfounded. Unlike him, all the villagers were in an uproar. They all did not know that they were being cheated with their hard-earned money. So, when they found out, they were really angry.
"Young Master Evergreen. What are you doing here?" ask the village chief.
"Do I still need your permission to come here?" Philip replied. His friendly demeanor and polite tone were all gone.
"No, no, that's not what I meant. Even I know I'll prepare a banquet for you." The village chief replied. Not paying attention to Philip's tone at all.
"I don't care about your hospitality. Just go now." Philip impatiently waved his hand.
"I'm going to go." The village chief immediately replied and left. But he was followed by many people with him.
Philip walked up to Sam and stood in front of him. His teammates followed him and stood behind him.
"So, your name is Sam." Philip said with a smile.
Sam nonchalantly nodded and turned towards Paul. "We're even." Then he turned around carrying the corpse of a bull and walked to his compound.
Philip did not mind and started following him while Paul heaved a sigh of relief. He was really scared before. After Sam's cruelty, he feels lucky and leaves all thoughts of revenge. He quickly followed the others as well. Sam went to his backyard where the well was and dropped his body. Suddenly, Michael's voice came out.
"Sam, since when can you cultivate?" Michael asked as he ran towards her. Philip and his teammates all looked at Michael.
"Hello uncle Michael, it's just that my progress was so slow that they thought I couldn't cultivate. But now my efforts are paying off and I'm breaking through."
"Good, is this your hunt? Well, you have guts. Your first hunt was a bull trying to kill you." Michael asked while looking at the corpse. Philip and his teammates looked confused. But when they saw the scar on Sam's body, they immediately understood.
"Yes uncle." Sam laughed a little. "Uncle, you see my friends are here, can we talk later." Sam said with an awkward expression.
"Okay, we'll talk tomorrow." Michael said and left.
"Why are you here?" Sam's expression immediately turned indifferent. His smile disappeared completely. Everyone was stunned when they saw this change.
