Flying Eagle was startled by the thought that had popped into his mind!
Just how old was Su Bai?
Previously, the Demon Hunting Association had also sent him information on Su Bai.
She was only fourteen or fifteen this year, right?
A fourteen or fifteen-year-old Innate Grandmaster!
As this possibility came to mind, Flying Eagle felt his heartbeat quicken a bit…
"I need to confirm it."
Anyway, the Wood Vine Ape was already dead, and he was free before his next mission.
Flying Eagle quickly pulled out a pen and paper from his in my arms and wrote down his conjecture.
Then he whistled.
He called over a carrier pigeon.
He tied the envelope to the carrier pigeon's leg and released it.
"Go, deliver the message back to headquarters."
After doing all this, Flying Eagle then used his movement technique and chased after Su Bai.
He wanted to see with his own eyes how Su Bai fought.
And whether Su Bai had truly become an Innate Grandmaster.
However, even if she hadn't.
A fourteen or fifteen-year-old Grandmaster was still worth the Demon Hunting Association's attention.
After reaching Innate, Martial Artists seemed to have reached their limit.
But the Demon Hunting Association had been established for thousands of years, and the organization had absorbed a large number of Innate Grandmasters from all over the world.
Thousands of years of Legacy allowed Innate Grandmasters to continuously explore.
They felt that the path of a Martial Artist had not yet ended.
There should be another Realm above it.
So, after continuous exploration by Innate Grandmasters, they accumulated a large number of Cultivation Techniques.
Many veteran Innate Grandmasters already possessed terrifying strength.
They were only one opportunity away from breaking through to the next Realm.
And these newly recruited Genius Martial Artists.
They might continue the path of the veteran Innate Grandmasters in the future, paving the way for the next generation.
But!
It could also be the opportunity to Breakthrough to Innate Grandmaster!
…
Su Bai's speed was very fast.
Yao Beasts posed no threat to her.
The Hanging Eye Tiger was easily beaten down.
This time, Su Bai didn't even use a Low Grade Magical Artifact; instead, she wanted to test her own strength at the Body Refining Stage - Middle Stage.
She spread her arms and glided in front of the Hanging Eye Tiger.
She clenched her delicate fists.
Just three punches.
She defeated the Hanging Eye Tiger.
One punch to the forehead!
Hidden Qi directly entered the brain!
One punch to the neck!
Obvious Qi destroyed everything!
One punch to the waist and back!
Internal Qi poured in, destroying the internal organs!
Just three punches.
Fully demonstrating the destructive power of an Innate Grandmaster.
By the time Su Bai finished off the Hanging Eye Tiger and moved on to the next Yao Beast's location.
Flying Eagle arrived much later.
Despite being a Grandmaster of light footwork, he clearly couldn't catch up to a horse over long distances.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be a Grandmaster, but an Innate Grandmaster.
This time, Su Bai acted personally.
There were many more battle marks on the scene.
This made Flying Eagle understand Su Bai's strength more clearly.
And there was naturally a Grandmaster watching over the Hanging Eye Tiger's location.
Flying Eagle immediately inquired about Su Bai with the other party.
Upon hearing that Su Bai had already left half a day ago, coupled with the battle marks on the scene.
It could be determined that the Hanging Eye Tiger's resistance was limited.
It was completely beaten down!
This further confirmed Flying Eagle's inner conjecture.
Su Bai was definitely an Innate Grandmaster!
Flying Eagle didn't dare to delay, and after finding out the direction Su Bai had left in, he continued to pursue her.
And Su Bai's speed in clearing Yao Beasts was astonishing.
After all, the Yao Beasts Black Wind chose were all at the Grandmaster level.
This perfectly matched the strength Su Bai reported to the Demon Hunting Association.
The Demon Hunting Association had its own assessment standards for Yao Beast strength and rarely made mistakes.
Of course, even if there was a mistake, a Grandmaster-level Martial Artist could still run if they wanted to.
After all, Yao Beasts at the Qi Refining level were only physically strong and had surging Qi and blood; they didn't possess any Divine Abilities.
In just two days.
Including the time for the horses to rest.
Su Bai continuously hunted four Yao Beasts.
By the time Flying Eagle found Su Bai by following the traces on the road.
It was already the third day.
At this moment, Su Bai was feeding her horse by the river.
After all, she had been traveling continuously for two days, and although there were breaks in between, her mount wasn't made of iron.
There was no rush on the way back.
Sensing someone approaching.
Su Bai stopped meditating, opened her eyes, and saw Flying Eagle rushing towards her.
"Brother Flying Eagle, is something urgent?
Flying Eagle, seeing Su Bai, wiped the sweat from his forehead, his face pale.
To catch up to Su Bai, he hadn't even rested, chasing continuously, fearing he would lose Su Bai's trail.
Now that he had caught up to her, he didn't waste words and asked directly:
"Young Miss Su Bai, have you already reached Innate?"
Although it was a question, Flying Eagle's tone was very certain.
If she wasn't Innate, her speed in killing Yao Beasts wouldn't be this fast.
Hearing this, Su Bai hesitated for a moment.
Then she nodded.
After all, there was nothing in this world that could threaten her existence.
So there was no need to hide anything.
Seeing Su Bai nod in admission.
Flying Eagle gasped.
Good heavens!
It was true, a fourteen or fifteen-year-old Innate Grandmaster!
Flying Eagle suppressed the shock and joy in his heart.
He quickly explained his intention for coming to Su Bai.
"It's like this, Grandmaster Su Bai, would you be willing to officially join the Demon Hunting Association?"
Flying Eagle's address to Su Bai had already changed.
Then Flying Eagle told Su Bai about the history of the Demon Hunting Association.
And the intention of many Innate experts within the association to Breakthrough to a higher Realm.
"Of course, joining the Demon Hunting Association is just to place Young Miss Su Bai in a more core position; it's not asking you to betray your sect."
"It's just that Innate Grandmasters have worked together for many years, and with the addition of fresh blood, some conjectures can be realized. Of course, your Cultivation experience also needs to be recorded, and as a condition, you can also refer to more Innate Cultivation Techniques within the association."
"Moreover, as an Innate Grandmaster, as long as it's related to martial arts, you can freely allocate resources within the association."
Hearing Flying Eagle's words.
Su Bai naturally had no reason to refuse.
What was she doing in Great Wu?
Of course, it was to improve her Body Refining cultivation!
She hadn't expected the Martial Artists of this world to be so diligent.
They had actually already researched the next Realm!
Doesn't that mean.
In this world, one could Cultivate to the Body Refining Stage - Late Phase?!
"I'll join!"
Without any hesitation.
If she hesitated even a little, Su Bai would be letting down the mere ten Low-Grade Spirit Stones she had left in her pocket!
And listening to Flying Eagle's words.
After entering the Demon Hunting Association's interior.
In fact, most of the time would be spent researching how to Breakthrough martial arts Realms.
And according to Flying Eagle.
Within the Demon Hunting Association, one could also view the experiences of other Innate Grandmasters!
Joining the Demon Hunting Association had no downsides, not even restrictions.
But there were many benefits.
After Su Bai agreed.
Flying Eagle told Su Bai.
"Let's wait here for a few days. I've already sent a message back via carrier pigeon, and I believe it won't be long before an Innate Grandmaster comes to assess you. Once the Innate Grandmaster confirms it, you'll be a core member of the Demon Hunting Association."
"Mhm."
Since that was the case, they would wait in place.
It wouldn't delay Su Bai's Cultivation either.
Although the Spiritual Qi in Great Wu was thin.
Su Bai's cultivation was also low, and she could Cultivate by relying on Medicinal Pills.
The two stayed in place and waited for about ten days.
Whoosh!
A sound of rushing through the air came from afar.
A black shadow rushed towards them at an extremely fast speed.
That speed was something Flying Eagle couldn't hope to match, even on horseback.
In just a few breaths, the figure had already arrived in front of them.
The figure landed, revealing an old man with a white beard, a ruddy complexion, and an explosive physique that his gray robe couldn't conceal.
Su Bai's eyelids twitched when she saw the old man.
This old man had abundant Qi and blood, showing no signs of an elderly person's usual state.
He even gave Su Bai a feeling of seeing a Qi Refining Stage - Late Phase Cultivator.
One should know that in the Purple Bamboo Immortal Market, she had also seen Qi Refining Stage - Late Phase Cultivators from the three great Foundation Establishment Families from afar.
Their Aura was truly terrifying.
The old man came before Su Bai and Flying Eagle.
Flying Eagle was an old scout of the Demon Hunting Association, so the old man naturally recognized him.
"You are Su Bai?"
The old man sized up Su Bai, his eyes slightly narrowed, and he nodded.
He was clearly observing whether Su Bai was truly an Innate Grandmaster.
After confirming Su Bai's powerful Qi and blood.
"Good! Good! Good! As expected, heroes emerge from the young."
Clearly, the old man had confirmed it.
Su Bai had broken through to Innate.
"This old man is Lin Feng, you can call me Old Lin, or just Lin Lao."
"Uh, Su Bai greets Old… Senior Lin."
Su Bai's greeting was a bit awkward.
But Lin Feng laughed heartily.
"We are both Innate Grandmasters, considered fellow Dao, it's just a title, no need to mind."
"However, although you are an Innate Grandmaster, and this old man has seen your information and knows that you come from the Mingyu Sect and specialize in a hard Qi Cultivation Technique, I still need to see your combat strength."
"After all, the strength of Yao Beasts varies, and in the future, it might be that Yao Beasts that Grandmasters can't handle will require your intervention."
As Lin Feng spoke, his Aura had already risen.
It seemed he wanted to see Su Bai's combat strength.
Su Bai understood this point.
The booklet that Black Wind had given her, where Yao Beasts' strength corresponded to Grandmasters.
Then there must also be Yao Beasts that corresponded to Innate.
Su Bai stood up and said without reservation:
"Then let's do it."
With that, the two instantly began to fight!
