"You mean, find a way to kill him?"

"Right!"

Mu Qianshan nodded firmly.

Although it was very difficult, his father had taught him from a young age to seek wealth and fortune in danger!

Clearly, this was an opportunity.

According to the situation in the Pocket World Simulation League, eliminating a Xuanxiao Period creature from the Monster Race would definitely bring a significant reward.

Plus, they had indeed just discovered something, so Mu Qianshan was even more convinced.

Even if not for anything else, as long as they could take down the Gold Element Tree Demon, they would certainly catch the attention of recruitment teachers from various Academies.

He himself didn't care about it, but it was obviously something Jiang Yuan and Zhou Dongshan really needed.

In addition, the floors he and Jiang Yuan had reached in the Dream Tower also roughly indicated that their Combat Power was not that of the mid-stage Xingji.

"Let me think for a moment."

Jiang Yuan frowned and sat down cross-legged on the ground.

Take down the Gold Element Tree Demon?

To be honest, they really did want those one hundred points.

Now it was almost night, and the first day was almost over.

Although they didn't know how many points the team that had eliminated those five people had acquired,

by calculation, the points they earned per person averaged to only about fifty or sixty for the day.

At this rate, it would be only about one hundred and fifty points for three days.

But you have to know, they were basically in battle for the entire day today, hardly resting at all.

And all this is predicated on having enough Monster Race to fight.

What if they don't encounter that many Monster Race later on?

What to do then?

If they went to take down the Gold Element Tree Demon, one person would get more than thirty points.

It seems like a good deal, but how exactly should they take down the Gold Element Tree Demon?

A Xuanxiao Period Gold Element Tree Demon was indeed a very strong opponent for them.

So strong that Jiang Yuan didn't even think about confronting it head-on at first but turned around and ran instead.

"I don't feel too good about it."

In the end, Jiang Yuan still shook his head in the face of the expectant looks from Mu Qianshan and Zhou Dongshan.

"The ratio of gain to effort is not proportional, the effort required is too much, and there's too much uncertainty involved."

Jiang Yuan shook his head slightly, and both Mu Qianshan and Zhou Dongshan were taken aback.

"One hundred points looks like a lot, but if we divide it between the three of us, it's just over thirty points per person."

Jiang Yuan looked up at the two: "Is it that hard to get thirty points in one day?"

The two were silent.

Roughly calculating, excluding the five-man team they had just eliminated, their haul for the day was also about fifty or sixty points each.

In this light, going after the Gold Element Tree Demon really didn't make any sense.

"All right then."

Having thought it through, Mu Qianshan also let out a sigh of relief and a brilliant smile appeared on his face: "It's a pity that we didn't get to try the Monster Slaying Flying Dagger, if only I had used it right away."

"Indeed, a pity, but there must be more than one Xuanxiao Period creature from the Monster Race in the simulation."

Jiang Yuan spread out his hands: "If we encounter another Xuanxiao Period creature from the Monster Race that we can be sure is safe, we can just try then."

"That works."

"Boom!"

As soon as Mu Qianshan finished speaking, an explosion suddenly sounded from the forest, causing everyone to start with a tremor in their hearts.

"How many maps did you send out?"

In the monitoring room, seeing the dozens of people attacking the Gold Element Tree Demon on the screen, the mayor turned, surprised, and asked the red-faced middle-aged man.

"Uh, just a few dozen."

The red-faced middle-aged man touched his nose, somewhat embarrassed.

He hadn't expected that those few dozen maps would form a small alliance.

He had intended to gather some players, let them slaughter each other here, and eliminate some of them.

But instead...

"You really have some nerve."

The mayor was somewhat at a loss for words. After glancing at the man with the red face, he turned his attention back to the screen.

He had been watching Jiang Yuan and his team the whole time and hadn't noticed what had just happened.

However, someone beside him explained it.

"Three teams obtained the map, and when they were converging here, two of the teams encountered acquaintances, and then those acquaintances met more acquaintances. Just like that, several teams ended up joining together."

"What a coincidence..."

"Not really a coincidence since all the maps are the same, so they could only converge here."

"The same..."

The mayor was speechless, turning his head to look towards the red-faced middle-aged man who was now gazing at the ceiling.

"It's to attract attention, right?"

"Correct."

The portly deputy mayor nodded, "But evidently, they succeeded."

"With so many people, only a few memorable ones will be remembered."

"As long as there are results, it's fine."

The mayor waved his hand dismissively and then suddenly spotted a familiar figure in the corner of the battlefield.

"Hey, this is getting interesting."

The mayor couldn't help but chuckle after glancing at another screen beside him.

"Weren't they about to give up just now? How come they sneaked back?"

Laughing, the mayor saw the person who crept back was none other than Jiang Yuan and his group.

Following the explosion, Jiang Yuan's group quickly determined that the explosion had originated from the area of the Gold Element Tree Demon.

After pondering for a while, Jiang Yuan and his team decided to come back and check it out.

Upon their return, what they saw resembled the scene of guilds fighting a Boss in an online game.

Three to four dozen people were scattered around the Gold Element Tree Demon.

Some were taking damage, drawing the attention of the Gold Element Tree Demon, others were attacking, and some were boosting stats. Although their coordination wasn't perfect, the Gold Element Tree Demon certainly couldn't kill them all quickly.

If they kept grinding away, they might actually succeed.

"That explosion just now, it must have been one of the Gold Element Tree Demon's Skills, right?" Mu Qianshan asked, looking at a large pit not far from the Gold Element Tree Demon.

"Possibly."

The Gold Element Tree Demon had three Skill Cards.

One allowed it to alter its branches to either wood or metal material (taking root upon landing was also one of this Skill's effects).

Another was tree demon Clones, allowing it to split off a Gold Element Tree Demon clone one Realm lower than itself.

The last one was the Explosive Fruit.

The explosion must have been caused by the [Explosive Fruit].

Likely, it was the most powerful [Explosive Fruit].

The Clone's explosion!

The only question was how many competitors this blast had taken out.

"I know that guy, he's the top dog from City No. 6 High School!" Mu Qianshan suddenly pointed at a young man holding a large saber, continually circling and attacking the Gold Element Tree Demon.

"Top dog?"

Jiang Yuan paused for a moment before he remembered that this was a peculiar nickname for the young man.

Jiang Yuan had heard this nickname before.

Apart from being the strongest person in No. 6 High, he was also a social butterfly.

Knowing a lot of people, that is why he was called the top dog.

"We're close to success, everyone push harder!"

Witnessing another teammate impaled and disappearing by the tree demon's branches, top dog Sun Jiajiang yelled out while hacking at the Gold Element Tree Demon with his large saber.

The Gold Element Tree Demon was indeed on its last legs. Not to mention the multitude of wounds on its trunk, there was only one attacking branch left.

Even the fruit on its tree crown used for explosions was gone.

"Shall I give it a try?"

Witnessing this scene, Mu Qianshan also felt the itch to draw his [Demon-Slaying Knife].

He wanted to test whether a [Demon-Slaying Knife] in a Great Realm was confined to its own Realm or could cross Realms.

He also wanted to see if he could snatch a kill from the jaws of defeat!
