Weber's eyes showed an abundance of malice at the mention of his master. It was as if he wanted to swallow him alive.
"What do you mean by he's claiming to be a supreme god?"
Darren and the other two were quite stunned upon hearing the words of Weber.
"That's exactly it. The old dog always says that he's going to be a supreme god one day. He's extremely arrogant that I can't take it!" Weber said furiously.
Upon hearing that, Darren calmed down. He had thought that Weber's master was, in fact, a supreme god. However, while pondering this thought, he realized that it should be impossible. After all, the human race did not have any supreme gods at the time being.
"I bet your master is very powerful," Darren remarked with a faint smile.
"Oh, forget it! Just mentioning him makes my blood boil. By the way, you can have this token when we get out. It contains a lot of points. Just consider it as a gift from me," Weber said as he displayed the killing token in his hand.
"Are you sure?" Finley was quite surprised at his gesture.
"Yeah, why not? I'm not aiming to participate in the final round of the Tussle Contest anyway. So, it'll be just useless in my hands," Weber said indifferently.
"Wow, that's great! Please give it to us then," Finley replied with a huge smile.
"Hey, didn't you look down upon me earlier?" Weber quickly rolled his eyes as he remembered Finley's attitude towards him from before.
"Ah, ha-ha. Yeah, sorry about that. I've been a wrong judge of character. I thought you were some kind of creepy person. But it turns out that you're powerful and generous. Can you let that go, please?" Finley cupped his hands as he expressed his apology.
"Okay. At least you know how to admit your fault," Weber said with a hint of sarcasm, which made the three secretly look at him with disdain.
"All right. All right! We had enough to eat so we better move now, or else we may not catch up." Just now, Darren checked the ranking of each participant. Currently, the second place already had more than three hundred thousand points, while both Darren and Lindsay only had a few hundred points in their killing tokens, placing them at the bottom of the ranking list.
"Why are you in such a hurry? The game has just started. You still have three months left. As long as you kill a beast that is at the Celestial God Realm, you can earn more points than what they could accumulate in three hundred years! No need to rush," Weber said in an extremely carefree manner.
"Be serious, fatty! That's easier said than done. Do you think it's so easy to just find and kill a beast at the Celestial God Realm? It's better to do it little by little than wait for something big that might not even happen. Humph!" Lindsay wasn't able to contain her emotions and snapped.
"Hey, I never said that it was easy to kill a beast at the Celestial God Realm, but it also doesn't mean that it's an impossible task. Of course, there is a way to do it." Weber dropped his nonchalant character and became serious.
"A way? What do you mean?"
Darren and the other two looked at Weber expectantly. They wondered if he was talking about making an array.
"Well, I haven't come up with that yet." Weber instantly went back to being indifferent, taking a bite of the beast meat in his hand.
The three were so pissed that they weren't even able to utter a word. They immediately got up and rushed into the distance without looking back. They couldn't dilly-dally anymore because they were so behind in points.
"Hey! Wait for me!" Weber took another bite before throwing the bone and ran after them.
After a while, Darren's group roamed around the dark ancient forest.
They kept on killing the wild beasts in the area without stopping. In just a single blow, they were able to annihilate thousands of them.
However, most of these beasts were just at a lower level, thus their points could not grow rapidly.
"This is bad. We've already killed so many beasts but we still only have more than ten thousand points. We have to hunt for stronger ones if we want to catch up," Darren analyzed.
"Hey, Weber. We're going to look for a fiercer beast. You go with us and help us kill it," Finley informed Weber.
"Sure, go ahead. As long as it's not at the Celestial God Realm, I can help you." Weber agreed.
"Isn't it strange? During the daytime, we found several stronger beasts in this area. Why does it seem that they're all gone now?" Lindsay muttered out of nowhere.
"Of course, they're gone!"
Suddenly, more than a dozen figures emerged from the dark. Darren and his companions were taken aback because they didn't sense their aura all this time.
"No beast can escape from the hands of the Celestial Alliance! We've eliminated them!"
The members of this so-called Celestial Alliance surrounded them and claimed to have killed all of the powerful beasts in the area.
However, after perceiving them through his god's sense, Darren wasn't too impressed. Among this group of people, the three which had the highest cultivation bases were only at the top level of the Star God Realm. For him, they weren't strong enough.
"Oh, you did? Congratulations. Let's go, guys." Darren didn't want to waste their time with this bunch of show-offs, so he intended to leave immediately.
