God-Level Special Forces Soldier

A tall, thin man charged forward, swinging his blade horizontally towards Xiao Tian’s neck. If this slash hit, it would immediately create the image of a head falling to the ground.

Of course, the tall, thin man was prepared for this. He did not have full confidence that a single slash could decapitate the Hunter, so he had some backup plans ready for different situations.

”Clang!”

A sharp pain shot through his tiger mouth, waking the tall, thin man who first attacked Xiao Tian. He was shocked as he felt a stream of warmth running down his hand, causing his arm holding the blade to tremble slightly.

Yet, the next scene he witnessed left his legs shaking uncontrollably, unable to stand steady.

He stared at Xiao Tian smiling in front of him... with a knife chipped and worn wedged against his neck. The tall, thin man’s eyes widened, his eye corners slightly tearing and oozing a few tiny drops of blood.

Xiao Tian’s smile remained unchanged, as he took the chipped knife from the tall, thin man’s hand. Throughout the process, the man did not react at all, as if he was sleepwalking, utterly at Xiao Tian’s mercy.

”Whoosh!” Following this sound, the people behind the tall, thin man stopped instinctively, standing still and looking up at the head still holding an astonished expression, spinning rapidly and flying away like a kicked soccer ball.

The tall, thin man’s head continued to roll on the ground after falling, until it could no longer be seen. Only then did the crowd shift their gaze toward the body that was still upright with blood gushing from its neck.

Originally, the crowd, consisting of Dark List Experts and some skilled individuals, had seen even more horrendous and bloody scenes. But this was the first time seeing someone casually end a life while smiling.

To the crowd, Xiao Tian’s smile was the kind that sent chills straight to the heart, not falling under the category of psychological abnormality or strong mental resilience.

With his indifferent eyes seemingly treating life as grass, fearing not even others’ lives, nor his own!

When people read this emotion from Xiao Tian’s eyes, the decapitation, initially not considered fearsome, suddenly turned terrifying.

Seeing the crowd halting, Xiao Tian held the chipped knife and charged towards the group, showing no intention of fleeing.

After a brief panic, the crowd spontaneously created a path intending to surround him.

But as soon as Xiao Tian rushed into the group, he went mad like a war machine, swinging the knife in his hand with blood-curdling screams echoing endlessly.

After charging through from one end to the other, he turned back to throttle through the ranks again and again.

He dexterously dodged all surrounding attacks without a hitch. Even when hit occasionally, it did not hinder his advance at all.

After three rounds, the original group of around a hundred experts reduced by a third, over thirty dismembered bodies lying silently on the ground.

Seeing the ground covered thickly by blood where Xiao Tian trod, distant broken limbs of unknown belongers faintly visible, the remaining sixty-plus people felt tremors in their hearts as if witnessing a god of slaughter!

”Hunter, do you know what you’re doing?!”

Knowing that further progress would soon lead to panic, Thunder King Salon stepped forward, loudly questioning: ”Such reckless slaughter, are you not afraid of the Dark List’s sanction?!”

The sanction Thunder King Salon referred to is from an independent list apart from the Dark List, with three prerequisites to have a name appear on it,

Firstly, the sanctioned must be a registered member of the Dark List. Secondly, there must be sufficient reason to submit a sanction application. If malicious applicants make submissions, they will be severely punished.

The final requirement is that the application must have eighty out of the top one hundred ranked experts of the Dark List vote for approval for it to pass.

Xiao Tian was very aware of these rules. Once the sanction application passes screening, the sanctioned person’s name and code will automatically appear on the reward list, marked in prominent red.

The rewards generally were unimaginably lavish, and the sanctioned person’s result usually ones that lead to a dead end.

Moreover, the founder of the Dark List would send dedicated personnel for pursuit until the sanction was fulfilled.

But, such intimidation holds no weight for Xiao Tian, who coldly retorted, ”Everyone here has come for that treasure, and a price must be paid to obtain it. If you don’t even have this understanding, are you fit to obtain the treasure?!”

”Even if a price must be paid, your so-called price is too heavy!” Thunder King Salon seemed to occupy the moral high ground and attacked Xiao Tian’s behavior fiercely.

”Heh, what do you think isn’t heavy?” Xiao Tian responded leisurely: ”Rock-paper-scissors? Or rolling dice?”

”That’s child’s play!” a master stood up and reprimanded loudly: ”How can this be the same?!”

”Oh?” Xiao Tian amusedly retorted: ”Too heavy isn’t right, too light you’re unsatisfied; then what are you doing here? Just leave.”

”You!”

Choked to the point of speechless rage, not daring to curse at him, the master’s face turned extraordinarily spectacular, unable to muster a single word, eventually backing down begrudgingly.

Soon, another person stood up and declared: ”If everyone were like you, killing anyone who disagrees with your will, then what difference is there from a demon?!”

Said the master standing up, visibly more agitated, adding: ”It’s like a master of True Qi compared to ordinary people, if an ordinary person snatches something from you, should a True Qi master be allowed to kill due to superior skill?!”

”No one’s ever done that!”

Unmoved by questioning, Xiao Tian showed no emotional response fluctuation: ”Think before speaking. If ordinary people rob you, I believe it’s neither you won’t kill, but you don’t dare, unless you publicly challenge the state’s authority!”

”You, you’re defending wrongly.”

”When outmatched, you argue, standing on moral high ground; when out-argued, you say others are defending wrongly.”

Xiao Tian’s gaze turned cold: ”Then tell me, who are you supposed that everyone should follow your logic? Can’t win an argument, what next, game of chess?!”

Damn!

Frightened hearts of the crowd pushed into further surprises, thinking this guy not only had combat prowess but his tongue wasn’t inferior!

”Tell me, when you charged just now, were you intent on reasoning with me?!” Seeing everyone silent and speechless, Xiao Tian began to ask in return.

Some masters previously humiliated by Xiao Tian’s words, unwilling to remain, discreetly slipped into an inconspicuous corner when no one noticed.
