Only after watching a huge tiger charge towards me did I truly understand what it means to be as fierce as a tiger descending a mountain.

Chen Sanshi remained calm and composed, and calmly drew his bow and nocked an arrow.

Another arrow.

This time, he chose the softest eyes as his target.

A tiger in a frenzy is as fast as lightning, and its imposing presence makes it incredibly difficult to hit a moving target in the eye – an impossible task.

But Chen Sanshi is exceptionally skilled at hitting the bullseye from a hundred paces away.

"Roar--"

A heart-wrenching wail erupted as an arrow blinded the tiger's left eye.

"call out--"

Next, the right eye.

The tiger went blind in both eyes, and its white whiskers were stained red with blood.

What's terrifying is that despite suffering such pain, it still didn't stop its charge. With its last glimpse of the sky, it leaped up and quickly climbed the tree, determined to tear the attacker to shreds.

Tigers definitely can climb trees.

Chen Sanshi was prepared and jumped onto a nearby tree in advance, while not forgetting to turn around and shoot another arrow.

The struggle of a cornered beast is especially terrifying.

The worm doesn't look dead yet, but it won't last much longer.

Just delay; don't be impatient.

The tiger used its remaining hearing to determine its location and followed suit, leaping over the target.

Chen Sanshi changed trees and shot arrows, and the tiger was hit by the arrow.

Repeat this cycle several times.

No matter how fierce a tiger is, it is still just a beast. With several arrows in its body and blind in one eye, it soon could not hold on and fell from the tree, which was more than ten meters high.

Having lost its fierce "breath," the worm could no longer bear the pain, struggling wildly, waving its claws and teeth and spinning in place, its blood staining the mud and leaving deep furrows.

ended.

Just as Chen Sanshi was about to end the hunt, his ears twitched as he heard rapidly approaching footsteps.

The two martial arts school disciples from before appeared.

"Brother, I'll help you kill this beast."

As Wei Xu spoke, he drew his sword and charged forward.

The tiger was on its last legs and was just one strike away from death. It didn't need anyone else's help.

They clearly wanted to use the pretext of helping to get a share of the profits.

"roll!"

Chen Sanshi was a man of few words, and in an instant, the Kaiyuan Bow had already fired an arrow.

A cool breeze brushed against his neck, and Wei Xu froze on the spot, unable to move for a long time.

He only woke up with a start when crimson blood flowed down his neck and into his clothes.

the least bit!

His artery would have been pierced by a hair's breadth!

"Senior brother..."

The junior apprentice next to him was equally frightened.

How can this person be so ruthless?

They just wanted to join in the fun and get a share of the silver; they never intended to hurt anyone. This guy… why did he shoot an arrow right away?!

And what a fast arrow!

They only saw the other person reach into their quiver at their waist, and the next second an arrow was shot at them.

Wei Xu clutched his neck wound and retreated repeatedly, not daring to take another step forward.

Fight back?

He's not blind.

That big worm was almost killed, how could it not kill him?

On the tree.

After intimidating them, Chen Sanshi put away his bow and arrows, held the reed spear upside down with both hands, his arms bulging with veins that looked like small snakes coiling around them, pointed the spear tip at the tiger's head, and jumped to the ground, descending from the sky.

"呲-"

The sharp spear tip pierced the tiger's head, pinning it to the ground. He knelt on one knee, pressing down on the tiger's body, feeling its vital energy rapidly weaken until it was completely still, before finally pulling out the spear, which was covered in red and white substances.

After dealing with the tiger, Chen Sanshi dragged over the roe deer from before, carrying both prey on his back.

Less than a thousand catties.

This is nothing to a martial artist who is proficient in blood refining.

It was only at this moment that Wei Xu came to his senses.

They watched the boy carrying the tiger's carcass, backing away to keep their distance, stammering, "Who are you, sir, so domineering!"

"Just a small flag in the army."

Chen Sanshi was completely unafraid.

Everything is judged by its strength.

If those two dared to fight back, they would have been shot dead before they even raised their hands.

In short, if you can't withstand his arrows, it's useless even if your cultivation level is higher than his.

Blood Refining Warriors do not possess the ability to withstand blades with their bare hands.

Bullshit!

Wei Xu had never seen Xiao Qi with such excellent archery skills.

Moreover, his master warned him that Xiang Tingchun was causing trouble recently, so he should never mess with the people in the army, otherwise no one would care if he died.

He and his junior brother cautiously made way, fearing that the other side might shoot another arrow.

Chen Sanshi walked right past them openly and honestly.

I'm no longer afraid!

In this wealthy depths of the Second Mountain, he can not only come, but also make the people in the martial arts school bow their heads!

This tiger hunt improved my proficiency in both skills.

[Tracing the Clues and Hiding the Trail (Minor Success)]

【Progress: 55/1000】

……

[Skill: Archery (Minor Mastery)]

Progress: (150/1000)

His archery skills, however, have improved at an increasingly slower pace.

It's related to bows.

The two-stone bow that Chen Sanshi had specially prepared earlier became light and airy when he pulled it after his martial arts improved.

"Looks like we'll have to get new bows and arrows again."

"Bows and arrows weighing more than two stones need to be custom-made at the craftsmen's workshop in the thousand-household office."

"Speaking of which, the bones of this giant worm are clearly harder than those of ordinary beasts. Could they be used as part of the material for the new bow?"

"Thanks to Uncle Zhao Qiao, otherwise, I would have been exhausted to find the tiger's hiding place in such a big mountain."

Cross the stream.

Chen Sanshi returned to the south side of Erchong Mountain.

Zhao Qiao, Wu Da, and Zhuang Yi were unexpectedly waiting here.

After all, it was a tiger hunt, and they were worried about it.

Another concern is that the boy might be targeted by the martial arts school's disciples.

Even if something unexpected happens, they can't help much, but they still want to wait.

To put it bluntly, if something really happens, at least someone will collect the body, so it won't be completely destroyed. This is why hunters stick together.

It seems they were overthinking it.

"Brother Chen, you're amazing!"

Zhuang Yi stared at the tiger's claws and fangs. Even the dead one made him a little scared, and he didn't dare to imagine how terrifying the living one must be.

The hunting dogs at his feet lay prostrate, not daring to utter a sound.

Wu Da's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets: "A martial arts practitioner can kill a tiger?"

"Shi Tou has really made something of himself. Not only can he fight tigers, but it seems no one dares to make things difficult for him."

Zhao Qiao laughed and said, "Then let's hurry down the mountain."

Chen Sanshi looked at the group.

In comparison, their income appears quite meager.

They only caught pheasants and rabbits; they didn't catch anything big.

"..."

Chen Sanshi suddenly stopped, put the tiger and roe deer on the ground, and said, "Uncle Zhao, I can't move it. Can you help me move it to the county town, and do it according to the rules?"

"Brother Chen, you can kill a tiger, you should be able to lift it, right?" Zhuang Yi said in a simple and honest manner.

"Shut up!"

Zhao Qiao glared at him.

This fool, he can't see that Stone saw they weren't getting anything and wanted to use the excuse of helping them move things to get some coins from them.

The group of four arrived in the county town.

After examination, this giant insect was indeed extraordinary. Although it could not be considered a mythical beast, it was not an ordinary ferocious beast either, and its price was relatively high.

The tiger weighed a total of 700 jin and was worth a total of over 150 taels.

However, Chen Sanshi kept the tiger's heart, gallbladder, skin, bones, and fifty catties of tiger meat for his own use, and finally received sixty-eight taels of silver.

The silly roe deer got one tael of money.

"We've almost got enough resources for the minor stage of Blood Refinement."
