It startled Finn and Frank when they saw this person appearing out of nowhere but when they heard what he wanted they finally calm down. 

It was very normal for the institute personal to demand the target because if they delay and let them leave they can just buy it out from somewhere else. 

"Sir, please look." Frank respectfully said and flip his hand before taking a five-inch Phantom horn lizard carcass from his storage ring. 

The person inspects the lizard carcass and after confirming it was indeed the allocated target, he stored the carcass in his storage ring before he said, "Show me your participant token." 

Frank didn't dare to delay and quickly took out the participant token while showing it respectfully to the checker.

The checker didn't delay either and took out a formation plate from his storage ring before activating it. 

The very next moment thereafter, Frank's participant token shone brightly and his participant number change from 12,112 to green 1,009. 

This number showed indicate how many participants have passed the test and the limit was of course 6000! 

"Oh, only one thousand has passed the test. Brother Finn, it seems we're still early." Frank exclaimed in surprise.

"You're right." Finn chuckled and without delay, he also took his corpse of Phantom Horn Lizard and show it to the checker who was waiting. 

Ace only has one Phantom Horn Lizard that he hunted in the core area of the dark swamp forest. He didn't take more than what he needed to pass the test. 

When the checker saw the size of Phantom Horn Lizard a hint of surprise flashed through his eyes and said, "You got some skills to hunt this peak Qi gate Phantom Horn Lizard all by yourself."

"Sir is too kind." Finn smile faintly. 

Frank merely smile knowingly because he thought Finn only manage to hunt this lizard with the help of his traitorous servants. But he didn't dare to point it out since his family was the vessel of Finn's. 

"Your token." The checker said while putting Finn's prey in his storage ring. 

Ace take out Finn's token from his storage ring and received the green number 1,010 before storing it away in his thief's space. 

"Here are antidote pills." The checker gave two pills green ranked pills to Frank and Finn. 

If they didn't pass the test, he wouldn't be so kind to give them these pills and would've left after collecting their tokens. But since they did pass the test, he gave them antidote pills just like he was instructed!

"You two may leave now. Remember to report back in three days in the regal city's registration building." The checker said before he took his leave. 

Both Finn and Frank thanks him for the pills showing no disrespect and they also leave the vacancy. 

They were going straight to the capital city.

At this moment Ace sense something that he kept watching out for. 

'So, it's here.'

This was Alvin's martial sense that hasn't been appeared in the forest.

"You two stop right there!" Alvin's sturdy voice rang in the wide field. 

Ace's face was immediately wrapped in fear because this is not what he imagined. 

In the end, both of them stop with terrified faces. 

In these twelve days, Alvin has tirelessly searched for any contestants that he found suspicious and even kill them without sparing a single one. 

But in the end, he never found traces of Sky Stealer. 

He ends up leaving the forest and searched anyone who crosses the area without holding back.

This was his last chance to fish out Sky Stealer if he was here that is. 

Frank's face was flush with intense anxiety because he never felt this kind of oppression might before, "Y-your… E-excellency… how did… we offend you?!" He shuttered. 

"You didn't offend me if this makes you feel any better." A cold smirk sounded at this moment and suddenly Finn and Frank saw a slim, handsome middle-aged man appearing in front of them. 

'So, this is the owner of that martial sense!' Ace's heart sank when he finally saw Alvin. 

He never thought he could bump into Alvin like this when he was out of the dark swamp forest. Now he can just hope Alvin let them go or this is going to be the end of him!

"S-sir, what… do you want?" Finn also shuttered while showing an expression of extreme concern.

"Just receive one attack from me and you two can go." Alvin nonchalantly said without blinking. 

'I'm dead!' Only this thought came into Ace's mind at this moment. He never expected this guy to be so ruthless. 

After all, he a Qi River Core cultivator was asking two Qi gate realm brats to take his attack. What kind of logic was this? 

But Ace has no choice in this matter. He knew this guy was testing them, so he suppressed his pounding heart and keep acting like Finn.

Frank on the other hand didn't know he was dealing with an almighty Qi River Core cultivator. He only thought that this was also some kind of test from the institute for a talented youngster like 'him'. 

"Sir, please don't go easy on us!" Frank's fear instantly turned into delight when this thought surfaced in his mind. 

Ace nearly fell when he heard Frank's words, 'This MORON, I should've killed him back then!' He was regretting his decision to spare Frank. 

Even Alvin showed a hint of interest after hearing Frank's words. He also thought that this guy was retard and the thought of not wasting his time on him surface in his mind. 

But he still didn't take his chance especially when this involved Sky Stealer!

Ace knew he can't be too obvious, so he pretended that he understands something from Frank's words and said, "Oh, so this is like this. Brother Frank, I underestimated your intelligence."

Frank grin broadly and pretend to be humble, "Brother Finn you're far too kind. You're just tired or you could've seen through this surprise test before me." 

'I wish.' Ace condemned in his heart.

"Sir, please test us to the best of your abilities." Finn showed a resolved face while confronting Alvin. 

But inside Ace was crying tears of blood because this was just like shooting oneself in the foot!

After seeing Finn and Frank's determined faces, Alvin was now 80% sure these two retards can't be the infamous Sky Stealer.

"Here it comes." Alvin didn't want to waste any more time talking with them.

Alvin fired two green streaks towards them. These streaks were strands of Alvin's element Qi!

Although these strands only contained 2% of his power, even this 2% was enough to kill any Qi Gate realm cultivator! 

Alvin only wanted to see how these two bodies reposed when they come in contact with his element Qi and if Alvin finds everything fine, he will retract the strand of element Qi, leaving these two alone.

This method was very simple yet very effective because the disguise didn't work for the inner physiques! 

When Ace saw the green streak coming in his way he instantly knew what this guy was planning and he nearly swore out loud. 

Because this stance of element Qi wasn't harmful to him but it was not a good thing in the least bit since dark void would absorb it the moment it entered his body! 

If Alvin discovered this Qi Gate junior can absorb his element Qi like it was nothing, then this would be the end of Ace! 

But it was too late to do anything since he can't control the dark void yet.

'Cipppp' 

The stance of element Qi instantly entered Finn and Frank's bodies! 

Frank's face turned deathly pale while thick veins popped all over his body and the next moment he vomited a puddle of blood before fainting! 

Alvin coolly retracted his Qi from Alvin's body because it was a normal response and there is no need to torment Frank any further. 

Because if he killed every passed participant of the institute it would a problem even for him. 

Alvin shifted his focus to Finn who seem to be completely fine. His eyes narrowed into slits as a hint of curiosity flashed past them.

Ace felt the dark void tremble and knew he did nothing now Alvin would!

'Dame it all!' Ace swore and before the dark void could absorb Alvin's element Qi completely he forcefully moves his HD-Qi backward in his meridian channels, causing Qi deviation! 

The next moment, Ace vomit a large amount of blood and fainted on the spot hoping this would work and the next time when he opened his eyes Alvin would probably go! 

Ace has taken this enormous risk because he knew nothing going to work in front of this Qi river core cultivator.

The invisible bead can grant him one minute but that was it and he will be in the open when the effect wore off and Alvin would also know he was Sky Stealer. 

At least now, Alvin didn't know the truth, and this give Ace the determination to take this gamble.

However, if something goes wrong, Alvin will capture him without a hitch and he would be in the hands of those three giants the next time he opened his eyes!
