Two hours later, nine people had been eliminated from the 10th training ground, leaving only thirty-three people.

The middle-aged fatty couldn’t help but sigh about the speed of people being eliminated, but Xiaoke never frowned once.

As time passed, Lin Xun had consumed most of his strength. He was uncontrollably gasping for breath and his forehead was beaded with sweat.

However, his gaze was still as focused and determined, and his blade still maintained its usual precision and quick speed.

Around his feet were golden flame spider corpses piled high up like mountains. It was a ghastly sight.

It wasn’t only Lin Xun, it was the same with the other students.

At this stage in the battle, everyone was fully focused and doing their best to survive. The battle was almost over, so no one wanted to be eliminated at this stage.

In contrast, a few people seemed relatively relaxed, such as Ning Meng, Shi Yu and others. Even though Qi Can had to look after Xin Wenbin, he was able to advance and step back freely and showed his powerful fighting ability.

“How many students are there at the sixth layer true Martial Stage?” Xiaoke suddenly asked.

The middle-aged fatty’s pupils shrank slightly like he had sensed something. Then, he answered after a while, “There are two, no there is only one left now.”

Xiaoke followed his gaze and saw another youngster scream out loud and couldn’t hold on any longer.

Clearly, the youngster was one of the two sixth layer True Martial Stage trainees. Unfortunately, he had been eliminated as they were speaking.

The middle-aged fatty sighed. “The youngster eliminated is pretty talented. He’s already better than ordinary people since he could last until now despite only being at the sixth layer True Martial Stage.”

Xiaoke kept quiet and then said after a while, “Who is the other student at the sixth layer True Martial Stage?”

The middle-aged fatty pointed to Lin Xun and remarked ruminatively, “That guy also isn’t ordinary. Look at his blade technique. It's ruthless and swift, and he can kill with one strike. Only experts who truly understand battles will know that this sort of blade technique is the most effective but also the most terrifying.”

Xiaoke hummed and said, “That blade technique is indeed very unique. It should be a rare secret technique, but that kid’s cultivation base is too low, so he hasn’t been able to bring out the true powers of his blade technique.”

The middle-aged fatty smiled. “It’s already not ordinary. He has already grasped the essence of the blade technique and is one step away from reaching the precise realm.”

Xiaoke thought for a moment and suddenly asked, “Which family sent him here?”

The middle-aged fatty shook his head. “You have to ask Xu Sanqi.”

The mention of Xu Sanqi’s name made Xiaoke fall silent for a moment, and then she said, “You also know about Chief Xu’s character. If he doesn’t want to say it, he won’t reveal a single word even if it would cost him his life.”

The middle-aged fatty shrugged his shoulders in agreement.

“Ning Meng, Shi Yu, Qi Can, Wen Mingxiu, Li Qiu, Mou Lengxin…” Xiaoke suddenly said six names in a row. “Pay attention to these six people.”

The middle-aged fatty exclaimed in surprise. “Are you going to start preparing for the Twilight Blood Training now?”

Xiaoke said indifferently, “There’s only one year left, so we must prepare in advance.”

The middle-aged fatty pondered for a moment and sighed, “Never mind, I won’t be able to understand your thinking, but I know that many changes will definitely happen in one year. Don’t be too hasty!”

He knew very well what Xiaoke meant. In her eyes, only those six students would last until the end of the one year training, and the others…would likely be eliminated!

But he also knew that there could be many changes in one year. What Xiaoke did on the first day of the training camp was clearly very irrational.

Xiaoke kept quiet. She had never changed what she had set her mind on.

……

When two hours and forty minutes of the training had passed, only twenty-eight students were left fighting in the 10th training ground.

They all looked very distressed but the worst of them all was undoubtedly Lin Xun.

He was drenched in cold sweat and his face was deathly pale. His breathing was labored and rapid and he was swaying from side to side. He clearly couldn’t last much longer.

Lin Xun knew why he fell into such a state. Xin Wenbin’s interference had greatly ruined his battle rhythm and made him waste his strength unnecessarily. Otherwise, he wouldn’t look as distressed as he did now.

“So annoying. Why hasn't he been eliminated already!” Xin Wenbin was observing Lin Xun from a distance, wishing that the golden flame spiders would eat him alive.

But even until now, although Lin Xun looked extremely distressed, he was still standing, which made Xin Wenbin extremely disgruntled.

“There are still 20 minutes left. Given his current state, he surely can’t last till the end.” Qi Can uttered coldly.

“Good! That’s good!” Xin Wenbin grinned sinisterly. “Once he’s eliminated, I will find a chance to write a letter to ask my father to send someone to capture him. The day I leave the Blood Kill Camp is the day I will get revenge!”

His voice was filled with bitter resentment. He hated Lin Xun to the bone.

After more than ten minutes, Lin Xun was tottering and about to collapse, but he unexpectedly still persevered, making Xin Wenbin both shocked and angry.

Even Qi Can couldn’t help but scrunch his brows. He also didn’t expect Lin Xun to have such terrifying perseverance.

In another area, Ning Meng raised his head and swept a glance over at Lin Xun’s side. He couldn't help raising his eyebrows. He thought that Lin Xun was already very impressive to have lasted so far with a cultivation base of the sixth layer True Martial Stage.

Seeing that there were only about five minutes left until the end of the training session, Ning Meng gritted his teeth as he planned to take the opportunity to help Lin Xun. They had traveled together and they had arrived at the Blood Kill Camp together. They were considered friends and so he couldn’t stand and watch him die.

“Wait a minute.” Shi Yu suddenly appeared and blocked Ning Meng’s path.

“Little White Face, what are you doing?” Ning Meng’s face darkened. He had no good opinion of Shi Yu.

“If you go save him now, you are actually harming him,” said Shi Yu indifferently.

“What do you know!?” Ning Meng thundered. “You clearly want my brother to be eliminated and make me look heartless for not saving him!”

“Oh, it turns out that you two are brothers, so why did you just stand there when Xin Wenbin brought him trouble? Could it be that you’re also afraid of Xin Wenbin and his father?” Shi Yu mocked.

“Nonsense!” Ning Meng snapped. “If you keep pestering me, don’t blame me for being rude!”

Shi Yu grinned. “Attacking and killing each other will lead to elimination. Are you sure you want to do that?”

Ning Meng’s eyes widened and almost spewed out flames. “You…”

A scream suddenly rang in the distance.

Ning Meng and Shi Yu suddenly felt a chill in their hearts and they simultaneously turned around.

……

On the mountain peak, Xiaoke said casually, “Time is almost up. Get ready to leave.”

The middle-aged fatty looked distracted as he stared fixedly at the battlefield. His gaze was on Lin Xun. “That kid still hasn’t collapsed yet. What a surprise!”

Xiaoke raised her eyebrows and looked at the battlefield. She indeed saw that although Lin Xun’s face was deathly pale and his body was tottering, he still held on from falling. Any golden flame spiders that neared him were all narrowly killed regardless of how many there were.

Xiaoke checked the time and saw that only three minutes were remaining. She evaluated Lin Xun’s condition and said, “There’s no hope for him.”

The middle-aged fatty’s countenance changed subtly. He also knew that it would indeed be difficult for Lin Xun to last another three minutes given his current condition.

Thinking of this, an indescribable feeling surged out from his heart. If the young man is eliminated in the last few minutes, it will be a huge unimaginable blow to him, and it might even affect his future!

However, the middle-aged fatty also knew that the rules couldn’t be violated. Neither he nor Xiaoke could help Lin Xun in any way.

“Huh?”

Suddenly, a rare surprise crossed Xiaoke’s calm and graceful face.

The middle-aged fatty’s eyes also lit up.

……

On the training ground, Lin Xun, who was swaying and stumbling, suddenly regained his energy, and the power of his blade seemed to have instantly soared.

One blade slash tore the golden flame spiders that were pouncing towards him from all directions like pieces of paper and they all fluttered to the ground.

Suddenly, the area around Lin Xun was completely empty.

“How is that possible!?” Xin Wenbin exclaimed in disbelief, thinking he saw it wrong.

But when he saw that Lin Xun’s second blade slash produced an equally powerful force as the first, Xin Wenbin felt as if lightning had struck down on him and the bitterness in his heart intensified.

Two minutes let!

How could that be?

Xin Wenbin didn’t notice that Qi Can’s face also grew overcast and his eyes became solemn. He could tell from one glance that Lin Xun’s control of his blade technique had risen to a new level!

“This…" Ning Meng was utterly stunned.

“See, if you had rushed over there heedlessly, you would have ruined his opportunity to refine his blade technique.” Shi Yu said casually.

“You could tell then?” Ning Meng’s heart trembled. If that’s the case, the little white face’s eyes are terrifying.

Shi Yu smiled and said nothing.

“I suddenly remembered a phrase—A cultivator’s potential is only unleashed under extreme pressure.” The middle-aged fatty didn’t try to conceal his admiration for Lin Xun.

Xiaoke fell silent and then she waved her hand. “Get ready to leave.”

“Don’t you think this kid is pretty good?” The middle-aged fatty said bitterly.

“He’s also thirteen years old but he’s only at the sixth layer True Martial Stage. Compared with the others, who do you think I would think more highly of?” Xiaoke said indifferently, turned around and walked towards the treasure ship. Her short hair danced in the mountain wind, making her figure seem graceful and lonely.

On the first day of training in the Blood Kill Camp, Lin Xun reversed his situation in the last three minutes of the training with a breakthrough in his blade art. He wasn’t eliminated in the end and became the only student at the sixth layer True Martial Stage among the twenty eight students in the 39th campground!

Whoosh!

Xiaoke and the students boarded the treasure ship. The treasure ship roared into the distance.

They had set off at four o’ clock in the morning, and now it was a little past seven in the morning. It was breakfast time at half past seven.

For all the students in the Blood Kill Camp, the most precious thing was undoubtedly their meal times.
