♂?，，

  His face relaxed instantly after hearing that.

  This man was the leader of the group of ten, and on his shoulder, a small black creature with a wolf's head and a snake's body was perched. Its eyes gleamed with an icy pale green light as it gazed at the dragon cub on Meng Ting's shoulder, its expression extremely unfavourable, even radiating a hint of greed.

  The dragon cub stared at it, equally unkind, as if it had encountered its arch-nemesis.

  This magical fifth-class creature, those with the same surname are basically arch-enemies, only those with different surnames can coexist. This is why Long Zai initially looked at Ada with a bad expression, and immediately changed his attitude when he found out that Ada had a different surname.

  The wolf-headed and snake-bodied fifth-class life form in front of him was obviously a male, and as soon as it came into contact with Long Zi, both sides immediately sparked a collision of gazes.

  The man with the wolf head and snake body on his shoulder was a sturdy man in his thirties, who was also the leader of this team of ten. When he first saw that Meng Ting and Su Yu both had "fifth-class life forms" on them, he was slightly startled, and when he saw that the two teams seemed to be together, his heart was filled with vigilance. It wasn't until the thin man next to him, who looked like a macaque, whispered in his ear that among the nine people on the other side, only one couldn't be seen through, seemingly a fifth-stage outsider, while the others were all fourth-stage, that he put his mind at ease.

  The teams that come to this space basically won't have any existence above the fifth level. Since this fourth-level weak and thin monkey man can't see through his opponent, his opponent must be a strong fifth-level master, and it's absolutely impossible for him to be a strong master above the fifth level.

  If it were a strong person above the fifth level, first of all, it is unlikely to appear in this space. Secondly, he should be able to feel that terrible breath, but now, he just feels that the other's breath is about the same as his own.

  And this person, he himself is also a fifth-tier strongman.

  In my team, there are two 5th-rank and eight 4th-rank players. The other team has only one 5th-rank player and eight 4th-rank players. Comparing the strength of both sides, our side has an extra 5th-rank strong player, which is unreasonable.

  Fifth stage, that's a completely different realm from fourth stage. A single fifth-stage can easily defeat several fourth-stages with ease.

  The two parties confronted each other, and after a brief silence of several seconds, Su Yu felt that Ado's body was getting colder and couldn't drag on any longer. She couldn't help but ask Long Zi: "Long Zi, where is the fire element crystal?" Looking at the giant crystal pile in front of her, she didn't see anything like the fire element crystal.

  The little dragon stretched out its small paws, scratched its head and said: "This is the energy stone of the fire element under our feet. After a long time, energy stones will occasionally produce crystals of the fire element. I can sense that there are crystals below, hmm... it should be about five meters down from here." The little paw pointed to a certain place in front.

  "Alright." Su Yu didn't bother to greet the other group of people approaching, and handed the Adai in his hand to Fang Jiong beside him. He then walked forward alone, preparing to break open the crystal stone pile and retrieve the crystal essence five meters below.

  Su Yu's actions left Meng Ting and the others stunned. A fourth-rank Black Iron Warrior, facing so many powerful individuals, dared to act as if no one else existed? Did he think there was no one else around?

  Even Meng Ting and others were staring at Su Yu in surprise. Was this guy crazy?

  Meng Ting and the others didn't have "perceptive eyes", but they could still sense the terrifying aura of these ten people. These ten people were absolutely not to be trifled with, so they were still hesitating, while Su Yu didn't think twice before walking out.

  As soon as Su Yu walked out, the ten people on the other side were slightly stunned, and then someone shouted: "Stop, this place was discovered by us first, don't you know that first come first served?" At the same time, with a few swift sounds, three or four black iron warriors rushed out from among the ten people.

  Meng Ting also walked out, with a sweet and lovely smile on her doll-like face. She didn't want to have an unnecessary conflict, so she said in a clear voice: "Everyone, we just want to take a little bit of the fire element crystal and some energy stones. There are so many energy stones here, if you all came for the energy stones too, it's impossible for us to take them all away. Can't you spare some for us?"

  This entire crystal heap is all energy stones, indeed more than imaginable. Meng Ting and others can't carry many at a time, so she thinks it's unnecessary to have conflicts.

  "Hmph, we did come for the energy stones, but... these energy stones are a lot to you, but not that many to us..."

  The man with the wolf head and snake body on his shoulder, who was the first to speak, had a slightly hoarse voice. He didn't know what the fire element crystal was, but since the other person wanted it so badly, it must be a treasure too. So he also had the idea of possessing it, while secretly asking the wolf-headed snake-bodied monster on his shoulder if it knew what the crystal was.

  "Crystal essence is the crystallization of energy stones after a long period of time, it's very precious. For our fifth-class life, if the yuanqi is severely damaged, we can use this crystal essence to recover our yuanqi. Moreover, if we refine it into a weapon, it will be able to unleash a formidable power, making it a treasured item."

  The monster with a wolf's head and a snake's body replied, making the thirty-year-old man's conviction firm that he would not let Jingxiu be taken by these people in front of him.

  He estimated the strength of the other party and found that he could hold off the only fifth-tier strongman in their team, while his eight fourth-tiers could hold off the opponent's eight fourth-tiers. His own remaining fifth-tier could easily take out the opponent one by one without a doubt. If a conflict were to arise, they would basically be able to completely defeat the other party. As he calculated this, he quietly whispered a few words into the ear of another person beside him.

  This man is another fifth-tier powerhouse in their team.

  Meng Ting heard the other party's response and knew that they were not prepared to give in, and had even started planning for a confrontation.

  In such a world, military force is everything. For the sake of resources, people are killed at will, and it's nothing out of the ordinary, especially when there is a significant gap in strength between the two sides.

  If there were two fifth-level strongmen in Meng Ting's team, the other side might agree to give them some energy stones. But just because they had one less fifth-level strongman than the other side, they thought they could win completely and didn't want to give Meng Ting even a little bit of energy stone, let alone the crystal that was considered a treasure.

  "Now retreat while you still can." The opposing leader spoke again, his voice low and hoarse, giving off an unyielding feeling.

  Meng Ting frowned and said, "Everyone, isn't this a bit too much? We all arrived here at the same time, no one came before or after anyone else. We just want to divide up some energy stones and a crystal, that's all. The rest can be left for you, think about it."

  "Haha——" The thirty-year-old man with a wolf's head and snake's body on his shoulder burst out laughing, suddenly coldly snorting: "Joke, what to consider……" He knew that the opponent must have seen that their side had one more fifth-level strongman, as long as the opponent was not an idiot, they would know that the energy stone and surname were which one was more precious, so the result was undoubtedly that the opponent would retreat, not daring to compete with them.

  But in fact, before he had even finished speaking, the youth who had walked out earlier suddenly revealed black scales on his left hand, clenched his fist and slammed it onto the crystal stone on the ground. The other party hadn't even listened to what he was saying.

  Su Yu's action was immediately seen as a serious provocation to them, and the thirty-year-old man's self-esteem was greatly hurt. He immediately snarled: "Despicable, you..."

  The three fourth-order Black Iron Warriors who had rushed out earlier suddenly pounced on Su Yu.

  Su Yu's left hand revealed black scales, and he punched the ground heavily, looking like he had used all his strength, but only managed to crack the ground with a few small fissures, his attack power was abnormally weak.

  Fang Jiong looked at it and thought to himself, "Could this crystal be that hard?"

  Three fourth-tier Black Iron Warriors, who were charging at Su Yu, saw that his punch only managed to crack the crystal stone into a few small fine fissures. Their faces couldn't help but reveal a look of disdain and contempt. They had all followed their squad to this world to mine other energy stones before, and they knew that these energy stones were just as hard as ordinary rocks. If it were them who punched, they could easily crack the stone into deep fissures, whereas Su Yu only managed to create a few small fine cracks, which naturally led to their underestimation of him.

  The three "Fourth-Order Black Iron Warriors" who ambushed Su Yu were two men and one woman, with the youngest looking only eighteen or nineteen years old, and the oldest around twenty-four or five. At this moment, their faces revealed disdain as they pounced on Su Yu. One of them transformed an arm into a beast claw, swiping at Su Yu's head, while another transformed both hands into two boulder-like objects the size of blue balls, smashing towards Su Yu with such force that just one hit could turn an ordinary person into a meat paste.

  The last woman had many small holes in her palms, and at this moment, she stretched out both hands, and from these small holes, black spider-like silk threads sprayed out.

  These three people rushed to take action, wanting to kill Su Yu with one blow, and also to make a meritorious deed in front of the leader. With the combined strength of the three fourth-stage powerhouses, they indeed had the ability to kill another fourth-stage powerhouse with one blow.

  Su Yu's fist slammed onto the crystal stone, and a small crack appeared on it. Almost at the same time, he was surrounded by the joint attack of the three strong men in front of him.

  Behind, Fang Kuang angrily shouted, busily putting Adai into his own wide clothes as his body temperature continued to drop. He stretched out his left hand to take out a large sand pot and his right hand to take out a cow-cutting knife, rushing forward to assist, but unfortunately it was too late.

  Su Yu crouched on the ground, attacked by three powerful peers of the same rank. He seemed neither surprised nor panicked, but his feet suddenly popped up, his waist tightened, and in this instant, even before these three people made their move, he struck first, a fraction of a second earlier.
