Scene 2 - Let's fight!
Charging at the large bearlike contestant Xue roared the top of her lungs in a beast growl meeting his overhead axe swing with her hammer. Brute strength versus brute strength collided an as expected the large bearlike contestant axe was smashed to pieces with shrapnel exploding in all directions.
Before he could recover from his shock Xue grabbed his wrist and broke it in two snapping the bone. Dropping his useless handle over the pain in his broken wrist in pain he was about scream, ‘You bitch!’
Only too feel Xue’s claws over his neck like cold daggers ready to rip his throat out at a moment's notice. Parting her seductive red lips Xue said with a growl that made the bearlike man almost faint, “Your talismans or your life? Ten seconds before I rip out your neck.”
Sweating intently the bearlike man gave up leaving the tournament fearing for his life. Grabbing the talismans Xue lifted her hammer over her shoulder and held her head out to the frozen contestants around her.
Eyeing them she smirked it really was how Mear said what did she need to fear? She had her mask after all! Then she provoked the surrounding people making a come-on gesture showing that she didn’t care for their numbers at all for she had strength!
A few hot-headed youths seeing Xue’s arrogant display despite just moments ago her taking down the bear with ease charged at her with killing intent! If this was the old Xue then she would have been frozen stuck not able to move. The fear that controlled her for most of her memory seemed to fade away as long as she wore this mask she was free.
She was the hunter.
Not holding back Xue jumped into the group of contestants and beast and began her rampage, knocking out beasts and throwing them into her hammer realm or beating contestants black and blue throwing them out of the exam.

It got to the point the beasts and contestants felt that Xue was such a threat that they stopped fighting each other and began attacking Xue together who was currently in the center of the battlefield.
By now the scent of flesh and blood was thick in the air making Xue’s blood boil with excitement making her crack her fingers with glee as one foe after another came at her. With so many enemies attacking her hammer became a hassle to wield in such waves Xue then made the choice to turn her hammer back into a keychain and started fighting on all fours.
Kicking, punching, clawing Xue used every part of her body to knock out the incoming forces, it got to the point that she couldn’t stop herself from heavily injuring them tearing off body parts or severing ligaments.
Flashes of light, body parts and blood flew in all directions soon Xue was drenched in blood as her points kept going higher and higher. If it was this much then she would be an unbreakable wall earning points with ease things turned for the worse when some true experts started gunning for her.
The shadow beast from before was still launching sneak attacks on her and two powerful contestants had entered the fray. A Male saber user and a female equipped with a set of gauntlets and greaves both attacked Xue relentlessly using the beasts and contestants as body shields.
Slowly but surely under these factors, Xue started to feel pressure from all sides, to the point that she finally took her first wound in this battle on her shoulder. Then another cut followed soon after more light injuries kept piling up on, it felt to her that ants were nipping at her heels in the thousands and she couldn’t stomp them all.

It annoyed Xue to no end that the Saber and the Gauntlet user were working together seamlessly like as if they've known each other for years defending each other back. All while the shadow beast hidden in the shadows attacking Xue when it saw an opening.
‘Should I help you, master?’, Mear whispered in Xue’s mentally hoping to run wild on the battlefield.
Xue moved out of the sabers way and blocking the gauntlets users high kick while breaking a dagger users arm that lunged at her. The annoying shadow beast took this chance while Xue was overextended aiming for her neck only to dug into her shoulder blade shallowly making a thin line of blood appear.
Xue didn't have much time to reply to Mears question, “I wanna win by myself to prove that I have become strong. I have too! “
Mear nodded her head in approval although Xue couldn't see it, ‘If you want to win then you must take risks!’
Hearing Mears word of encouragement Xue finally pulled out her hammer again changing it into a one-handed war hammer.
Eyes narrowing Xue rushed at the saber user hammer in hand with a beast roar. Seeing Xue give up defending he smiled and thrust forward intent on piercing through her! Xue gritted her teeth and kept charging the thrusting blade aimed at her heart!
Seeing this the saber boy sneered, “As expected of a cornered beast impaling itself on my blade. Die!”
Snorting coldly Xue cladding her hand with qi she grabbed the saber barehanded! Holding it with an iron grip as blood flowed from her hand but she didn't care.
Smashing downwards with her hammer full of fury onto the sabers user weapon hand shattering his arm bone into pieces.
The gauntlet user cried out fear as Xue moved to break the swordsman other arm, “Get away from Ryluu!” The girl smashed her hand forward at Xue's head forcing her to give up and retreat.
Grabbing the person named Ryluu the girl retreated backward off into the distance before Xue could finish them off.
‘Tsk. Good prey got away.’, laughing at herself over her way of not going for the kill when she had the chance she kept fighting in the center.
Now at the present Xue had finished her thoughts more powerful challengers appeared making her feel a headache come, 'When will they stop coming?’
She was exhausted from her battle after battle fight after fight to the point he qi reserves were quite low wounds had appeared all over her body.
It was at this time Xue felt she had done enough and was about to call for Mear when a sudden voice traveled through the room full of rage, “HOW DARE YOU TRASH PICK ON MY LITTLE SISTER! I WILL HAVE YOUR HEADS!”
