Duan He realized that his scheme had been seen through, so he did not continue to entangle himself.
Xuan Qingzhu clapped his hands and said, "Everyone already knows that the second stage of the Sect Ranking Tournament is the Situation Tournament. It is for you to assist the Star Guild in hunting demons."
"As for the opportunity to hunt demons, you don't have it as you wish, so you have to wait patiently for the next few days. When the time comes, I will naturally arrange it for you."
Duan He replied, "I'm sure that everyone is not familiar with the demons. Before your competition starts, I will follow the instructions of the guild elders and take you to observe the demons at close range. Everyone can eat whatever you want. Follow me when you're done."
After dinner, all the contestants followed Duan He to the underground prison of the branch. As the leader of the martial artists of the Southern Domain, Xuan Qingzhu went to the Star Guild as a guest and did not know what to talk about.
The underground prison of this branch of the Star Guild was located 150 meters below the surface of the ground. It was heavily guarded, and guards dressed in light golden robes could be seen everywhere.
These guards were different from ordinary Guild disciples. The Star Guards worked for Guild disciples after graduation, just like soldiers.
In this underground prison, there were almost ten Star Guards moving about every five steps and every once in a while.
These Star Guards were generally at the Heaven Origin Realm, roughly between the 1st and 3rd Heaven Origin Realm.
Such tight defenses had truly opened the eyes of the martial artists of the Southern Domain.
"Amazing." Feng Xuan chewed on the delicious candy and said, "The average quality of martial artists in the Central Plains is really high. They actually treat Tian Yuan realm martial artists as bodyguards to stand guard."
Everyone nodded in agreement.
In the Southern Domain, even Tian Yuan Realm martial artists were able to dominate a region in the remote region, but in the Central Plains, they were actually used to stand guard.
Duan He walked at the front and proudly said, "I'll see the demons later. I hope you won't be frightened. This kind of thing will definitely shock you."
Hearing this, everyone's hearts started to tremble.
Is the demon really that powerful? After all, their next match was to hunt demons.
To everyone's surprise, this underground prison was very large, but it did not contain any prisoners.
It wasn't until they reached the center of the prison that they saw a circular open space. In the middle of the circular open space was a huge steel cage. The cage was at least ten meters tall and twenty meters long, larger than an ordinary house.
The most shocking thing was the monster in the cage.
"This is a demon?" Everyone was slightly stunned.
Inside the iron cage was an animal that resembled a hound. Black gas emitted from the animal's entire body. If one looked closely, the black gas should be a substance that was somewhere between fire and gas.
This "big dog" was only about three meters tall and only six meters long. It was a circle smaller than most large demonic beasts.
Its mouth was pointed, and its sharp fangs extended outwards. The fur on its body was like a dog soaked in water, slowly floating and shaking.
The big dog's eyes were pure black. When it breathed, its mouth and nose would spit out half-gas and half-flame black gas.
When everyone was still fifty meters away from this thing, they felt an inexplicable suffocation. Their breathing had already become blocked.
"What is this?" A martial artist covered his mouth.
Everyone was shocked.
Duan He seemed to be very satisfied with everyone's reaction. He wanted everyone to be afraid of the demons and know the horrors of the demons. 𝙛𝘳𝒆𝒆𝒘e𝗯𝒏o𝘷𝚎𝗹 - 🅽🅽novel
Duan He calmly walked three meters away from the iron cage. This distance made everyone's hearts tremble, and they were all sweating for Duan He.
"Senior Brother, you ... that distance is too dangerous." Two female disciples of the Guild cautiously reminded him.
Duan He smiled faintly and said, "This kind of beast is not enough in my eyes."
As he spoke, he turned his right hand and suddenly condensed a light whip with Yuan Qi in his hand. Afterwards, he whipped it through the crack in the metal cage, causing the demonic dog to continuously scream miserably.
Strangely, after Duan He's Yuan Qi whip hit the big dog, his Yuan Qi whip actually dissipated slightly. This scene attracted everyone's attention.
"As you can see." Duan He spread out his hands to the crowd and said, "Demon is a monster that runs out of distorted space. In fact, it is not a demon, nor is it a demon. The word 'Demon' is only used temporarily because we can't find a better name."
"We believe that there must be other unknown worlds outside our world. This Hellhound is a product of the mysterious world."
"That's right, we call it Hellhound."
Xiang Nan looked at it seriously and said, "Your Yuan Qi doesn't seem to be enough to hurt it."
Duan He frowned, but seeing that everyone was interested in this question, he did not make things difficult for Xiang Nan. He said, "Demons should be one of the dark creatures. They have great repellency towards Yuan Qi."
"This is also our biggest headache. The damage caused by our Yuan Qi striking them is very limited."
"I hope that everyone will pay attention to this point. Don't think that you can easily kill them. Once you have this thought, you won't be far from death."
"The speed and physical strength of these things far exceed those of demonic beasts and humans. However, our only advantage is that demons do not use Yuan Qi or Demonic Qi. Their only offensive method is physical attacks."
Someone flattered him and said, "Amazing! The Star Guild actually fights against such a monster all year round. It's truly admirable!"
"Isn't that so? Not only are they fighting against such a thing, they can actually capture one alive! It's truly unimaginable."
Hearing the compliments of the disciples of the The Profound Sky Sect, that Duan He was truly extremely useful, and his face was filled with pride.
He actually pointed at the big iron cage and said, "Someone, open the cage!"
"What?" Everyone was shocked.
A female Guild disciple hurriedly said, "Senior Brother, you can't! This demon can't be released!"
"What are you afraid of with me here? Can't I deal with this mere Hellhound?" Duan He shouted.
"At best, it is only at the first level of the Heavenly Yuan Realm!"
"That's right. With Senior Brother Duan He here, what are we afraid of? Senior Brother Duan He is a super expert at the ninth level of the Heavenly Yuan Realm!" The disciples of the The Profound Sky Sect echoed.
Duan He was even more complacent. He said, "I told you to open it! If anything goes wrong, I'll take responsibility!"
Everyone saw the Hellhound lying on the ground. Its body was covered in all kinds of cut wounds and a large number of whips. It looked as if it was on the verge of death. Such a thing shouldn't pose a threat, right?
Those Guild members didn't dare to disobey Duan He's orders. A guard trembled as he walked forward. There was deep fear in his eyes. In the end, under Duan He's urging, he used the key to open the iron cage.
