The Inner Court Martial Library was absolutely packed, with Inner Disciples everywhere. It was the exact same as a week ago, except for each Inner Disciples new weapons and mounts.

Everyone had a fierce appearance and had even begun to group themselves into hunting parties. Everyone was fervid with excitement, talking amongst themselves, and some of the newer disciples even felt their emotions bubble over.

Wang Li and Yan Zhou were within this crowd, in the middle, in the same spot as they had before.

"You! Prepare yourself for this hunt, I'll make sure there aren't any 'rules' to save you then!" Shen Yi, still riding his tiger mount, came forward and immediately taunted to Wang Li. The anger from a week before seemed to have only grown, and his nasty expression only spoke of killing intent.

"This is the boy that was causing you trouble earlier, Shen Yi? Pathetic." Around Shen Yi was his other friends, who all looked down at Wang Li equally. It was a small group of around four to five, and they seemed to have decided to team up for the hunt.

"Shen Yi, if you decide to trouble me or my brother during the hunt - prepare for death." Wang Li fiercely grinned and spat out, his fighting spirit emerging. Just from the pure aggression in his voice, Shen Yi and his friends flew into a fury.

Of course, it was still the Martial Library, and they couldn't act even if they wished.

But Wang Li didn't mind. Earlier during the week, he had found out that Inner Disciples can take certain low-level martial skills from the Outer Court Martial Library for free.

He had snuck away a few days earlier and picked up a bunch of low-class martial skills meant for Body Transformation artists. Each skill was easy to learn and master, and in just a week, he had diversified his fighting portfolio even further.

This gave him extra confidence for the hunt ahead. But just as Shen Yi and his group were contemplating striking, the entire crowd shushed as Thirteenth Elder descended at the stage.

"You all have gathered for the hunt, good! This Hunt to Demonside Forest will be extremely dangerous, and you all must be careful! Individuals and groups are allowed. While fighting amongst disciples is frowned upon - it is not entirely forbidden. But remember, we are all a sect, and killing a member of the sect will always be punishable!" Thirteenth Elder quickly went over the rules of the hunt, and then began to describe the hunt itself.

"The main objective of the hunt is to kill as many as Qi Foundation Demonic Beasts as possible. Each Demonic Beast will have a core which will identify the level of the beast and the specific type of beast, to which we have a ranking system. The higher the cultivation of the beast - the more points that will be rewarded. Each individual's points will be tallied up and put on a leaderboard, and the top three will be winners. The hunt shall last a month." Thirteenth Elder, hands placed behind his back, went into detail about the inner workings of the hunt. Each and every disciple listened attentively!

"The top three rewards will be as such: a Golden Proxy Pill, Magic Mist Tempering Powder, and a Meridian Cleansing Pill! Each and every one of these are extremely precious, as all of you know!" Thirteenth Elder proudly announced; the sect wasn't holding back much on this hunt. Each and every reward was worth a considerable amount of points and were treasures to Inner Disciples.

Magic Mist Tempering Powder was a strange powder that would turn into a hazy mist when mixed with water and increased a martial artist's affinity for cultivation. It also had an additional effect of tempering one's body even further.

Meridian Cleansing Pills were just like their name and cleansed a martial artist's meridians. This made combat much smoother and the flow of Qi easier. Of course, by tempering the meridians, it also made the body stronger.

Strangely, all of the rewards had at least a minor effect of body transformation. Many didn't think much of it and only erupted in excitement to get the hunt on.

They had gone out and bought new weapons, trained their martial skills to new extents, and taken all kinds of precious pills just for this moment! The rewards were simply too sweet!

"Follow me, Demonside Forest isn't too far. The Hunt will soon begin!"
