The bandit members had been watching with great attention as both Karn and Ban fought to the death. None of them were able to help Ban because if they did they might end up making it worse for Ban and they would risk their life.
Only Ban and Dean had loyalty for each other. A group of bandits who stole and kidnapped woman were not loyal to the the two or the group. As soon as Ban died all of the bandits looked at each other and ran in different directions.
This would have been cause for an headache for Karn but another blue window popped up again in front of him.
*Quest Completed*
Reward: 10 Ability Points, Disciple Tab unlocked, Full recovery
Karn felt a rush of vitality instantly and all of the fatigue that had been built up disappeared instantly.
'This system is truly magical!' Thought Karn as he flexed his muscles full of energy.

Karn could feel his body fill with vitality. His lean muscles had also started to show bringing sharpness to his demeanor.
He looked at Ban's dead body slightly lamenting before bending down and closing his eyes.
Soon after Karn could feel a rumbling inside the cave along with an immense pressure upon Karn. There was an intense bloodthirst that could be felt just like before when Karn used it accidentally.
"Go to the town with your brother!" I will come after I take care of this looking towards Fiora.
Fiora had seen Karn kill everyone, she knew she was supposed to take her brother back to the village but when she saw Karn fighting she had lost herself in a trance.
Once Karn spoke she nodded and ran alongside Zane as they made their way back to the village thru the dirt path.
Karn looked at Ban's body and then decided to search it. He found a pouch and a book with a title of 'Fire Fist' on it. He also found a sword and took it. His karambit had been useful but it was too short and it would not leave a deep enough wound when fighting others on the same level as him.
*Fire Fist Technique*
Rank: 1st tier Martial Warrior
Restriction: 25 Strength
Description: Cultivate the Yang energy inside the body to change the the property of fists into fiery fists. Every attack causing major burn damage as well as higher power.
*Learning Fire Fist Technique*
Immense knowledge about the technique made its way into his mind. The ways to use it and the way to circulate the ki was learnt instantly through the system.
Soon a bulky man with a rough beard came out of the cave. Along with the man came an immense pressure. His hand held a man's head and his body being dragged along with it. The man being dragged was definitely dead.
If one looked closely, one could discern that the body was missing an arm and the same clothes as Dean who practiced the 'myriad mirror' martial art. He had a gaping hole in body that was not present before.
"So you are the one who messed up my sleep! I will have to make you pay! Lets hope you can satisfy me at least!" Said the burly man as he threw Dean's dead body near Ban's.
Just as Karn was getting ready to fight he received another blue window pop up.
*Quest* (Optional)

Rank: Tutorial (III)
Objective: Kill Thorn the Bandit Leader
Reward: 30 Ability Points, Soul Cleaver (Skill)
Fail: -30 Fame, Possible Death
*Accept* *Decline*
'Oho?' This was the first time he had ever gotten an option to decline or accept. It was clear the man in front of him was very strong. When he looked at the banner on top of him there was a 'lvl 50' clearly written. He was 15 levels above the two he had just fought.
Alongside the level there was also a 'AP +16'.
'This must be the ability points I will get if I kill him.' Karn thought, he understood that the two +5 ability points had come from Ban and Dean.
If he still had stamina at 10 he would definitely lose but along with the full recovery and increase of his stats he might be able to kill his opponent Karn thought.

Thorn was a cultivation and battle break. He had created this bandit group to help supplement his lifestyle of cultivating and fighting. After training for so long he had finally attained 1st tier martial warrior making him a powerhouse in the area of Sichuan. Only a Peak martial warrior who were considered hegemons of Sects and Clans could suppress him completely.
Today was the same as always until one of his vice bandit leaders had come to him when he was making strides in cultivation. Just when he was about to make a breakthrough in his cultivation towards peak rank his subordinate messed it up.
He had got so angry that he killed him instantly. Now he was in a bad mood and wanted to vent his anger. Leaving the cave he saw the scene outside.
"This old man is the one who destroyed my property? I will kill him right now!" Thorn said as he watched the old man who had his eyes closed this whole time.
Suddenly the old man in front of him said "accept" with a slight smile.
Before he could tell what he said the old man had reached beside him and had slashed out with his sword.
