The fury was very clear in his eyes after realizing what had happened in the past. He began to roar in his high, repellent voice referring to Austin now. "You son of a bitch! How could you have abandoned the Tiger Mercenary Team after you applied for it? Do you think our recruitment test is just a child's play? How dare you play tricks on us!
The Tiger Mercenary Team is not a place that you can join or forsake whenever you like. If you disobey the rules and regulations of the team, you shall be punished. Abandoning your team without any explanation, you deserve to be sentenced to death to set a deterrent example to other team members.
Otherwise, people will think we failed in our duties.
Now, in front of all these people, I give you a choice. If you want to keep your despicable self alive, you'll have to cripple all the cultivation bases you have achieved so far. Plus, leave your arms here before we spare your life and allow you to get out of here," the man spat.
As the Team Head of the Tiger Mercenary Team, the middle-aged man felt he had the responsibility to deal with this display of treason and give all the team members a warning.
The idea to cripple a fighter's cultivation base could be compared to pulling a plant out of the soil by its root. Just like there was no way the plant could survive after that, the cultivator who had lost all his cultivation bases too couldn't have existed. It was so because in this world, it was the cultivation base that defined whether the cultivator lived or not.
Hearing the cruel and merciless accusation, Austin's fury increased. He felt he would throw up in disgust if he heard more of his depraved words.
"You seem to have a lot of confidence in your strength," Austin retorted.
Irked by the sturdy man's words, Austin tried restraining his fury as best as he could. The ire in his eyes seemed dangerous, as if it could flare up and burn the Team Head of the Tiger Mercenary Team to the ground any moment.
"Austin, how did you mess up with the Tiger Mercenary Team?"
The Team Head's words had left Tessa astounded and she couldn't stop herself from asking Austin. After all, the Tiger Mercenary Team was not a small team that was inferior in strength. No one could dare to provoke its authority.
As much as she was fond of Austin and saw him as a helpful brother and she appreciated his strength, the trouble-making nature of Austin also troubled her and made her worry about him. Last time, it was the mighty, exceptional Cyan Sect of the Elite Holy Kirkland that he had offended, and this time, it was the Tiger Mercenary Team, which was also as powerful as the Cyan Sect in strength. 'Having made so many enemies, what is he really thinking?' Tessa pondered in dismay.
However, Austin did not take Tessa's concern and worry for himself to his heart. He wasn't used to see people worry about him. "Tessa, the situation is urgent. If we get time later, I will explain everything to you," he answered briefly.
In the present circumstances, there was hardly anything that Tessa could do. After all, the priority of the situation right now was to keep Austin from harm's way. Tessa nodded her head in consent and advised him although she knew her warning would not be of much use.
"Austin, calm down and think twice whenever you get angry.
People always make hasty and wrong decisions when they are not thinking straight because they decide according to the heart," she said. Blind to her warning, Austin was thinking about the situation he was in. He knew that all these people were there because of the crystals and valuable things in the Crystal Mine Mountain. They were all greedy and wanted to take possession of those things.
