Soul Land V: Rebirth of Tang San

This was a White-headed Falcon Demon, a species belonging to the Monsters that was relatively rare in number. It was known for its fast flying speed and strong sustained flying ability. Its combat power was not too strong, but its flying and reconnaissance abilities were formidable. Its vision could detect subtle changes ten miles away, making it the best scout among the Monsters.

The White-headed Falcon Demon had obviously been summoned by higher-tier Monsters to counteract Tang San's agility.

If it were a real member of the Wind Wolf Tribe, it wouldn't fear the White-headed Falcon Demon, since a true Wind Wolf was not only capable of wielding wind blades but also naturally robust. Yet Tang San was merely a vassal, and his slender body, in the eyes of the Monsters, would allow for greater speed but inevitably weaker defenses. Using a White-headed Falcon Demon, a creature adept at speed and reconnaissance, to deal with him was just perfect.

The earlier death of the Flash Leopard was mostly considered by the Monsters to be the result of the Fourth-stage Flash Leopard's own carelessness.

"Begin!"

At the command of the Seventh-stage Violent Bear, the White-headed Falcon Demon's wings flapped furiously, and it shot up into the air in the blink of an eye. Its eyes shone with a white light, as its Hawk Eye bloodline talent activated and fixated instantly on Tang San.

If Tang San had been in its monitoring state, he would have found that everything he saw seemed to slow down and become clearer.

Under the gaze of the White-headed Falcon Demon's Hawk Eye, even the minute changes in Tang San's muscles were clearly captured. It could even distinguish the frequency at which his eyelashes fluttered.

As for Tang San being watched, he stood still and did not charge forward. He was just letting his hands naturally hang at his sides, his fingertips flickering with blue light.

The White-headed Falcon Demon had already soared a hundred meters into the sky in an instant. In the next moment, it dived down sharply. Its wings were abruptly drawn in, maintaining only a slight spread, but those slightly opened wings were constantly adjusting, controlling the angle of its dive.

This ability to vary its flight patterns was its forte. It was constantly searching for Tang San's weakness, and once it identified that instant of vulnerability, its Hawk Eye would lock onto it and ensure a decisive strike.

In its eyes, Tang San was already a dead man.

At that moment, Tang San finally moved. He tapped the ground with the tip of his foot and swiftly lunged forward, running towards the collision area, while lifting his head to look at the White-headed Falcon Demon in the sky.

As their eyes met, he saw the white light in the eyes of the White-headed Falcon Demon, but at that very moment, the White-headed Falcon Demon also caught sight of the purple hue in Tang San's eyes.

The faint purple color, though fleeting, caused the White-headed Falcon Demon to feel as though its brain had suddenly hit a brief void as if something in its spiritual world had struck it. This plunged it into momentary confusion.

Tang San leaped up almost in the next instant after entering the collision zone, his arms that had been hanging at his sides swung upwards abruptly. His hands each released two wind blades, aimed directly at the White-headed Falcon Demon in the air.

Although the White-headed Falcon Demon's moment of distraction was exceedingly brief, the purple gleam in its eyes left a profound mark on its mind.

By the time it had slightly recovered, the cutting edge of the wind blades, carrying a silent blue glow, had already reached it.

The White-headed Falcon Demon lived up to its reputation as the best at evading within the Monster race. Even in this situation, its body quickly twisted to dodge the two oncoming wind blades just in the nick of time. Its claws sprung out, and its wings flared to control its descent as it attempted to grab the other two wind blades.

Its brief lapse had already cost it a favorable position. While it was shocked, it prepared to ascend again for another attack.

But having already unleashed his Purple Demon Eyes on it, would Tang San give it another chance?

The two wind blades that missed in mid-air quietly circled back and were now closing in from behind, while the two wind blades that seemed to be about to be caught by the talons suddenly exploded.

The two wind blades split into four, speeding up in an instant and slashing at the slender body of the White-headed Falcon Demon. Though the impact was mostly blocked by its feathers, they were all at the Fourth Stage, and the strength of the wind blades was not easily withstood; blood sprayed forth in an instant.

The two wind blades returning from behind also ruthlessly cut into the back of the White-headed Falcon Demon, causing it to scream and plummet toward the ground.

Leaping up, Tang San extended his hands, one grasping the fragile neck of the White-headed Falcon Demon while the other held its chest. Spinning in mid-air, he flung the White-headed Falcon Demon away.

With a "bang", the White-headed Falcon Demon fell to the ground, blood flowing from its body, knocked unconscious by the throw.

Three consecutive victories!

Taking a deep breath, Tang San landed steadily in the collision zone.

If the first battle was a fluke and the second was finding a weakness, what about three in a row?

To the Monsters watching this human vassal, their gazes began to change. Since when could a human vassal possess such combat experience and capability?

Keep in mind, the White-headed Falcon Demon was specifically chosen to target him, yet it embarrassingly failed to dodge the wind blade during its assault.

All the Monsters saw was the White-headed Falcon Demon's mistake, but they didn't understand why it had erred.

The Seventh-stage Violent Bear furrowed its brow, eyeing Tang San who silently walked towards the side of the arena, preparing for the next match.

"Next." Rules are rules. Although the Monsters live by the law of the jungle, survival of the fittest, and respect strength above all, they also have their own order and regulations, especially within the main city.

Therefore, even if Tang San was just a vassal, on this collision tournament, if the Monsters wanted to take him down, they had to follow the rules—they could not swarm him, nor could higher stages bully the lower ones.

Just an ordinary Wind Wolf Transformation, yet he could possess such combat skills and luck?

Tang San's fourth opponent had already entered the arena; this one was the opponent Tang San was originally supposed to face in the previous match. Following the White-headed Falcon Demon's defeat, the sequence continued as planned.

This opponent was a Deer Demon with branched antlers on its head and a robust body. Its eyes didn't harbor the ferocity common among most Monsters; instead, there was a certain tranquility.

It watched Tang San closely, a faint light twinkling in the depths of its eyes. The fur on its body was quite distinctive: a light blue color accented with tufts of white.

Could it be...

Spirit Rhinoceros Deer Beast?

A thought struck Tang San.

He had heard Wang Yanfeng expound in detail about this type of Deer Demon. Their blue fur was extremely rare among the Monsters, let alone on a Deer Demon.

THe Deer Demon's numbers were considerable, holding an average status within the Monsters. The Spirit Rhinoceros Deer Beast was not the royalty among the Deer Demons, nor was it very powerful. However, its innate abilities were rather special.

Its innate ability was known as Spirit Rhinoceros Heart Eye. The most formidable aspect of this bloodline ability was perception.

The Spirit Rhino Metal used to make Spirit Rhinoceros Coins was discovered by the Spirit Rhinoceros Deer Beast clan. The greatest advantage of carrying these coins was to help the carrier maintain mental focus, and they even had the effect of refreshing the mind and aiding cultivation. After the discovery of Spirit Rhino Metal, it was fashioned into currency and named after the discovering clan.

The quantity of Spirit Rhinoceros Deer Beasts was small, but their status among the Monsters was even higher than that of the royalty of their own Deer Demon branch. With Spirit Rhinoceros Heart Eye, they could see many things invisible to other Races; to be precise, they had strong perceptive abilities. They could sense fortuity and misfortune, as well as the presence of treasures—making them a Monster Race with powerful Spiritual Power.

Thus, even though the Spirit Rhinoceros Deer Beasts weren't particularly skilled in combat, they were warmly welcomed by any Monster Race. Many great Monster clans also had Spirit Rhinoceros Deer Beasts among their ranks.
