Prince Dante stared at the demonic figure with a calm look, but he wasn't truly confident about facing this creature. However, he knew that he had to do something about this guy.

Swoosh!

Prince Dante took out his sword and initiated an attack on the raging demon. The guy was still occupied with the other applicants, so he wanted to try landing a surprise attack on it.

However...

To his dismay, the demonic soldier immediately sensed the danger and turned to look in his direction with its blood-red eyes that glowed with intense malice. There was also mocking a smile hanging on its terrifying face.

'Shit!' Prince Dante cursed in his heart when he saw the expression on the demon's face. He had underestimated this guy...

The demon adjusted its muscular body and struck a quick blow towards the pouncing Dante. Its movements were fast for its huge figure that it surprised the prince.

Prince Dante raised his sword upwards to block the incoming strike and...

Bang!

He was flung more than a hundred meters away with just one blow!

Cough! Cough!

Prince Dante coughed up several mouthfuls of blood as he stood up with great difficulty. He then stared at his sword that now had multiple cracks on it. It was an Earth Weapon, but it actually almost got destroyed after taking a single quick punch from that thing!

He then stared at the beast and saw the toying smile on its face. This sight angered him, but he could not do anything about it since it was outrageously stronger than him.

"This... This monster... Is it really part of the assessment?" He muttered while rubbing his aching shoulder.

Roaarrr!!

"Humans, you actually dared to venture inside my territory! And now you plan on leaving this place alive?! Preposterous!" The demonic soldier. said in a deep baritone voice. Just the sound of its voice made everyone feel a chill running down their spine.

Prince Dante was also a bit tensed when he heard it speak, but he knew that this was also an opportunity.

"Esteemed demon, we are unaware that this is your dwelling place and I apologize on behalf of everyone. I hope that you would be kind enough to allow us to leave." Prince Dante said as he looked at the demon soldier. Since this guy could talk, he must use this opportunity to buy as much time as possible until Zhu Ren and the others manage to gather all the applicants present to fight this thing! That's the only way he could think of in this situation.

"Hahaha! You, a pesky little worm want to negotiate with me? Laughable! Extremely laughable! Hahaha!" The demonic soldier cackled. Its annoyingly high-pitched laughter gave off a malicious aura that stunned everyone in place.

Zhu Ren and the others were riling up the other applicants to join them, but not everyone was willing to fight with them.

"Brother Zhu, we managed to call a few dozen people, but are they enough to fight against that thing?" Beiming Chu asked.

Zhu Ren glanced at him with a serious look and replied. "I have no idea, but His Highness is still there buying us time to get these people. We must trust him."

Beiming Chu nodded his head solemnly and stared at the applicants who were willing to fight against the demonic soldier.

"Brothers and sisters! Follow me! Killing that guy might be a shortcut to becoming a disciple of the Heavenly Sword Tower! Let's go!" Beiming Chu stoked everyone's fighting intent with a few words. Even Princess Sylvia was quite surprised when she realized that this guy was actually not all muscles...

Roar!

The applicants let out a battle cry as they followed Beiming Chu's lead. All of them wanted to become a disciple of the Heavenly Sword Tower and a chance was given in front of them. Although the possibility of it being true was low, they were still willing to try it out.

Hm?!

The demon soldier who was still mocking Prince Dante heard the ruckus and turned its gaze to Beiming Chu and the other applicants. It was a strong being, but it was not that confident about fighting a large group of young elites.

The demon soldier's ghastly eyes flickered with animosity when it realized that it felt fear when it saw the incoming group of humans.

"How dare you lowly creatures fight against me?! Die!!" The demon soldier shouted as it pounded the ground with its huge fists.

Rumble! Rumble!

The ground shook as if a huge earthquake was occurring! The mob behind Beiming Chu was in a mess, but a little more than half of them were still able to follow behind Beiming Chu.

"Ridiculous!" The demon soldier angrily said as it lifted its fists in the air.

"I think I can only block it once, so use that opportunity to release your most powerful attacks on that shit's head!" Beiming Chu shouted as he took out a pair of arms shields that looked incredibly durable and hooked it on his arms. He then sprinted ahead of everyone and raised his arms to block the demon soldier's attack.

Hm?!

The demon soldier did not expect that there was actually an idiot who was willing to take his attack head-on. Is this human crazy or is he just a clown? The demon soldier thought at that moment...

The injured Prince Dante stared at this scene with a hint of worry, but he did not stay idle. He took out another sword and prepared to use his most powerful attack.

"Foolish!" The demon soldier laughed as it increased the strength behind its punch.

Baaangg!!

Beiming Chu roared and received the punch with his arms! His arm shields broke apart and the ground beneath him crumbled apart, but he stood to his feet!

"This is fucking nothing!" Beiming Chu ignored his bloodied arms and shouted at the top of his lungs. A line of blood trickled down his lips and he could already feel his shoulders going numb. However, he ignored the pain and mustered all of his strength to resist the remaining power behind the demon soldier's punch!

Beiming Chu's knees finally gave in and he kneeled on the ground with one knee, but there was a faint smile on his face.

He was actually able to block an attack from a being that was more than two realms stronger than him! Unbelievable!
