When Lianyi felt that the opponent's attack power increased, she also increased the power of her counterattack, and knocked Ekaterina out of the sparring venue in one go. She pretended not to hold back her strength and hit the ground with a stick, creating a crack on the tatami floor.

"Hiss" screams came one after another, and Ekaterina, who was knocked away, was caught by the old hunter who teleported over. However, due to inertia, both of them crashed into the wall of the training ground. Ekaterina, who was hit head-on, spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted.

Lian Yi then put away the sharpness in her eyes, looked at Mark at a loss and said:

"I didn't mean to do that. I didn't expect her to suddenly appear and disappear, and even attack me. Didn't you say that she couldn't use hunter methods? Why did she go back on her word? Why didn't you stop her?"

Lianyi's three consecutive questions made Mark not know how to answer for a moment. He did not expect that Ekaterina did not gain any advantage even after activating the divine text. He felt ashamed.

The students who were watching also felt ashamed. The girl in front of them was obviously not a hunter student and did not have any divine texts on her body, yet she defeated the official hunter Ekaterina so easily. What none of them had been able to do was accomplished by an ordinary person. They were a little choked by this.

"Who is this? So powerful?"

"Yes! He doesn't even have a divine script on him."

"She even defeated Ekaterina who activated the divine scripture. I feel like Ekaterina is not as powerful as the rumors say."

"Shut up. Ekaterina was defeated and we are embarrassed too. How can you still praise others?"

The discussions reached the ears of all the old hunters present, and they also felt that this situation was not going to end well.

Mark said a few words to his companions, then came to Lianyi and said:

"Miss Yu, I'll take you back to rest first. We'll give you an explanation about what happened here."

Lian Yi nodded, then held the long stick in his hand and said:
"Can you please leave this to me? I'm afraid of another sneak attack."

The corners of Mark's mouth twitched, and when he met Lianyi's serious eyes, he finally nodded. The long stick was used by students for daily training, so there was no divine text engraved on it, so there was no problem in giving it to the other party.

Lianyi was satisfied and left the training ground with Mark, taking the long stick. Yekaterina had been sent to the infirmary by the instructor.

Jim was about to leave the treatment room when he saw Ekaterina being carried in by the teacher with blood on the corner of her mouth. His expression immediately changed and he went up to her and asked:
"What happened? How did Ekaterina get hurt?"

The hunter teacher who brought Ekaterina here was also helpless. He knew that the two were partners, so he said:
"Jim, let the healer take a look at Ekaterina's injuries first, and then I'll tell you the reason."

"Ok."

"Teacher Philot, there are injured people."

Jim immediately raised his voice.

Philot was wearing a white robe, with long blond hair tied behind his head, and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. His golden brown eyes were lazy. When he heard Jim's voice, he poked his head out from the inner room, took a look and said:

"Put the wounded on the treatment bed first."

Jim and the teacher holding Ekaterina did as they were told. After placing her on the treatment bed, Philot came over and said to himself:
"Damon, what happened today? Did you increase the danger level of the training? Two casualties appeared in this morning."

Damon coughed lightly and briefly explained the cause and effect of the incident. Then the treatment room fell into silence, and Jim's expression changed several times in an instant.

Philot had already completed the preliminary examination, and then activated his own healing script to treat Ekaterina, whose internal organs were shaken. After the treatment, he fed her a tube of prepared medicine, and then turned to Jim and said:

"Ekaterina was only shaken by a strong force. She's not seriously injured. She'll be fine after a good night's sleep. I'm very interested in this new kid. I'll go meet her."

After saying this, Philot left the treatment room with his hands in his pockets.

Jim and Damon looked at each other and followed.

Lianyi had returned to the guest room and was studying the materials for refining the long stick. Although she was not very good at refining weapons, she had made her own natal sword Lei Yao, so she had some experience with refining materials.

In her opinion, this long stick could carry the power of runes, so it must be something special. She was a little itchy and wanted to dissolve it and take a look.

While she was studying the long staff, Javier had already finished listening to Mark's report and became more determined to let Ripple join the Shadowhunters.

"I see. I'll take care of this matter. You go ahead and do your work."

Javier sent Mark away and was about to go see Ripple, when he met Philot, Jim and Damon.

"Why are you all here?"

Javier asked.

Philot pushed his glasses and said with a smile:
"My work is done. I heard that the Hunter Organization has recruited a new Hunter who can fight against official Hunters without the gift of the Divine Script. I was so curious that I came to meet this little guy."

Javier rolled his eyes in his heart. It was obvious that Philot was here to watch the fun. He was the most gossipy person in the organization, but he still maintained a calm appearance and said:
"Lian Yi is a natural hunter. The past ten years have been wasted. So we must win her over to our camp."

"I know, I know. Why are you so long-winded? Let me meet someone first."

Philot said impatiently.

Javier had no choice but to take the three of them to see Lianyi.

Lianyi was still studying the material of the long stick. When she heard the knock on the door, she raised her voice:

"Please come in, the door is unlocked."

She had long expected that with Ekaterina injured, there would definitely be people who would be restless, but she didn't know whether these people were here to call her to task or to persuade her to join the Shadow Hunters. She had been waiting for them for a long time.

When Javier came in, he saw Lianyi studying the long stick in his hand. He smiled and said:

"Ripple, do you like this weapon?"

Lianyi put down the long stick in his hand and said:
"This weapon is different from an ordinary staff, so I want to take a look."

After Lianyi finished speaking, he turned his gaze to Jim and asked:

"Is everything alright, Miss Ekaterina?"

Jim shook his head with a complicated expression, indicating that Ekaterina was fine.

Lian Yi continued to ask:

"How's the injury on your hand?"

This time it was Philot who answered. He narrowed his fox eyes and said:
"Jim's minor injury has healed long ago. He doesn't even need medicine. Just don't injure the same place within three days."

"That's good. I thought Jim's arm was broken, so Miss Ekaterina challenged me to a duel to help you vent your anger."

"No, Lianyi, you misunderstood. She was simply completing the task of receiving you for me. She didn't mean to hurt you."

Jim was also very tired and could only make up for it as much as possible.

"Really? But she wasn't like this when she sparred with me. She even activated the divine text, but she still lost to me. She is so weak!" (End of this chapter)
