If there were others around, then Wang Ye would simply leave.

Thinking of this, Lei He smirked coldly and looked at Wang Ye with disdain as he spoke,

"Ha! Wang Ye, do you really think that just because you took down five Fourth Grade Martial Warriors by yourself last time, you've become invincible at this level?"

"Last time was merely because you used a sniper rifle. Without it, you would be nothing. I alone am enough to deal with you."

"No need for others, today I alone can keep you here and claim the bigger bounty."

While Lei He was speaking, Wang Ye was staring intently at him. After Lei He finished his statement, Wang Ye shook his head as though he was a judge scoring an actor's performance and said,

"Your acting skills are too poor, I saw right through them at a glance."

Realizing his plan had been exposed by Wang Ye, Lei He was about to act and forcefully keep Wang Ye there when he saw Wang Ye sit cross-legged on the ground and speak to Lei He,

"Since there are others coming, let's wait for all of them to arrive and then we can start. When they do, you can all come at me together."

Wang Ye spoke indifferently, his words leaving Lei He even more bewildered upon hearing them.

What the hell?

Wang Ye had already figured out his plan, but instead of running away, he stayed right there, waiting for the others to join before making a move.

Why would Wang Ye do this?

Was he looking down on him?

At this thought, anger surged through Lei He's heart.

He couldn't believe that he, a Peak Fourth-Rank Martial Warrior, was being underestimated and disregarded by Wang Ye.

Just as Lei He's anger was about to provoke him into action, Wang Ye's voice continued to ring out,

"I'm not looking down on you; it's just that I think it's more interesting to fight when there are more people. Even if I were to die, it would be a more glorious death. So let's wait for everyone else to come over, and then I'll fight all of you together."

Wang Ye spoke in a languid tone, and this very nonchalance made Lei He realize that Wang Ye's words were heartfelt.

He truly didn't mean to look down on him.

Lei He stood still, not attacking Wang Ye. Since Wang Ye was willingly waiting for others, he could save some energy. It seemed like a good idea that once everyone else arrived, they could all attack Wang Ye together.

Even though Lei He felt that Wang Ye wouldn't necessarily be able to do much against him alone, it seemed more prudent.

Lei He just watched Wang Ye, waiting for the people above to come down.

During the wait, Lei He's attention was fixed solely on Wang Ye, fully concentrated on the possibility that Wang Ye might suddenly burst into action and attack.

And that he himself had no way to defeat Wang Ye, no match for him.

However, Lei He had waited for so long without seeing Wang Ye showing any intention of making a move.

Rustle rustle.

The people who had been waiting above had now gathered around Lei He, except for the three snipers above who were constantly taking advantage of opportunities created by the Fourth Grade Martial Warriors below to snipe.

The other seven Fourth Grade Martial Warriors had come to Lei He's side.

However, after glancing at Lei He and then at Wang Ye, who was lounging cross-legged, they too began to feel a bit suspicious.

From their perspective, when they had arrived below, Lei He was already battling with Wang Ye, holding him off, while they began to act without hesitation as they got there, joining forces to resolve the issue of Wang Ye right there.

However, what they hadn't anticipated was the sight of Wang Ye and Lei He seemingly in perfect harmony at the location, as if they were merely waiting for them to descend.

"Is everyone here now?"

Wang Ye clapped his hands, rose from a seated position, and swept his gaze over the people who had arrived, a smile emerging on his face:

"Not bad, three fourth-rank peak martial artists, and four fourth-grade martial warriors. It seems the people from the five great families hold me in high regard."

"Come on then!"

Having said this, Wang Ye immediately rushed toward the direction of Lei He and his group, with a speed that reached an extreme.

Lei He and his group, watching Wang Ye charging directly toward them, were for a moment unsure whether they should make a move or not.

To them, everything about Wang Ye was simply too strange.

He hadn't made a move the entire time, and upon their arrival, he single-handedly charged toward them.

This situation could only be attributed to one of two reasons.

The first reason was that Wang Ye had a death wish, charging at them simply to seek his own demise.

And the other reason was that Wang Ye had made a breakthrough to the rank of a Third Grade Martial Warrior.

The difference in strength between a Third Grade Martial Warrior and a peak Fourth-Rank Martial Warrior was a qualitative gap, a disparity between having influence and lacking it.

If Wang Ye had indeed broken through to the level of a Third Grade Martial Warrior, then it would indeed be easy for him to battle them and even think about getting rid of them effortlessly.

So it could be said...

Wang Yao's current realm had actually broken through to that of a Third Grade Martial Warrior?

And now he was coming their way to deal with all of them right here?

In the past two days, the reason Wang Ye had seemed so composed was not due to any other factor but because the strength he possessed was no longer that of a fourth-rank peak martial artist, but that of a Third Grade Martial Warrior!

That was why he was so unrestrained.

Even though there was no one else at the foot of the mountain to surround them, relying solely on Wang Ye alone was already enough to surround all of them there and take them all down.

As this realization dawned on them, a look of fear instantly surfaced on their faces. A Third Grade Martial Warrior!

Run!

Several Fourth Grade Martial Warriors, including peak Fourth-Rank Martial Warriors, upon realizing the situation, all wanted to flee immediately, while some, whose thinking were not as sharp, did not escape.

In the blink of an eye, Wang Ye began to fight with the few martial warriors who hadn't run.

And as Wang Ye fought with these martial warriors, the others also looked back, and what they saw left them slightly astonished.

Wang Ye wasn't displaying any particularly powerful strength.

He was still just at the realm of a peak Fourth-Rank Martial Warrior.

So could it be that Wang Ye was still a peak Fourth-Rank Martial Warrior?
