The situation had become tricky, but Yan Wuyue’s expression was still relaxed, without the slightest change.
Before she was reborn, she had experienced more dangerous and terrifying situations than this many times. Such a little problem couldn’t stump her.
“This is our chance. Yan Wuyue suddenly said.
“What chance? Zhou Mingrui didn’t quite understand.
Yan Wuyue analyzed, “Those surveillance balls are useless now. As long as we can gather those students, we can solve the trouble.”
“Even if we lose the second round, we’ll at least be able to choose one of the four great research institutes.”
After this reminder, Zhou Mingrui immediately understood. However, he said, “We don’t need it at all and don’t need to worry. I’ll help you get first place this time.”
“Let’s go. If I’m not wrong, we need to be quick and reach the core area as quickly as possible. Otherwise, the situation will only get worse if we drag this on.”
After coming to a consensus, the two of them set off immediately and tried their best to rope in students into the team.
At this moment, the entire mystic realm was undergoing a huge change. Many students didn’t flee in a panic. Instead, they grouped up in a very disciplined manner.
However, there were always some people who were too fragile and couldn’t bear this sudden change. They began to run around.
At this moment, the center of the secret realm had changed. It was no longer the dense forest from before. Instead, it was filled with black figures in cloaks.
There was still a steady stream of figures walking out of the teleportation gate in the center of the secret plane.
In the next second, a gigantic hand suddenly reached out from the portal and grabbed the edge of the portal.
On its pale green skin, thick veins were protruding. Although it was incomplete, its sharp nails flickered with a faint glint.
The gigantic hand suddenly grabbed with force. Then, cracks suddenly appeared on the teleportation portal, which had been extremely stable.
It was like cracking an egg and it began to peel off piece by piece.
Soon, the portal was forcefully expanded several times by the palm. The spatial cracks brightened and extinguished continuously, emitting special fluctuations.
But even so, the figure could not walk out of the transportation portal.
“D*mn it, you bunch of trashes! Set off immediately and collect enough energy for me, or I’ll tear you apart!”
A furious roar came from behind the portal, and the figures who were standing in place immediately scattered.
…
“Aren’t we going to meet up with the other students?”
“What’s the point of gathering? Now is the time to cheat. Otherwise, we will never get a good ranking with our strength.”
“But we don’t know the situation yet. It’s dangerous!”
“Are you going or not? If you’re not going, then get lost now. We don’t need cowards.”
“I… I’ll go. If I don’t get a place this time, my girlfriend will break up with me.”
“Humph, things are different now. If you don’t work hard, you deserve to be dumped!”
The four students didn’t gather with the main group. Instead, they headed toward a darker area.
“Be careful, there’s a monster!”
The leader of the four suddenly shouted. The python spirit that was wrapped around his body had already given him a warning in advance. It brought him back a few meters.
Although the other three were slower by half a beat, they immediately used their methods to spread out in all directions.
Boom!
The next second after the four of them retreated, four bolts of lightning struck where they had been standing. The powerful force directly blasted four holes in the ground.
However, before the four could rejoice that they had dodged the attack, they felt the air suddenly heat up. A huge fireball, like a meteorite from outer space, blasted toward the four of them with massive power.
“Attack!”
The leader roared loudly. The eyes of the python on his body lit up, and a poisonous water arrow immediately shot out from its mouth.
The summoned spirits of the other three people also attacked at the same time, trying to resist this attack.
…
Boom!
A huge explosion soared into the sky, and the terrifying power immediately swept out in all directions. The shockwave covered an area of dozens of meters.
When the flames dissipated, the four of them were already lying on the ground. The summoned spirits were either dead or injured, and they had no combat power at all.
Then, a few figures walked out of the red mist. When the weak light shone down, it revealed the goblins were less than 1.6 meters tall and had all kinds of pendants.
They walked to the four students and raised their wrinkled arms at them. Then, their mouths moved as they chanted a mysterious spell.
Ahhhh!!!
Halfway through the incantation, the four people lying on the ground suddenly began to cry out in pain. They felt an intense pain that seemed to be tearing their souls apart.
However, no matter how much they struggled, their bodies did not listen to their instructions at all. They had completely lost control.
In the next moment, pale soul phantoms were stripped from their bodies one by one. Even though they were soul phantoms, they still tried to struggle.
However, as the ribbon-like white light left their bodies, they were absorbed into the palms of these goblin wizards.
The white light eventually condensed into white beads. The goblin wizards then kept the white beads in the pockets.
As for the rest of the corpses, the goblin wizards burned them to ashes.
Soon, the training ground filled with cries of pain.
At the same time, Yan Wuyue and Zhou Mingrui had already gathered more than a hundred people. Hence, she stopped in her tracks.
“We have enough people. Yan Wuyue said.
“How many people are there? Are you sure it’s enough?” Zhou Mingrui asked.
Yan Wuyue glanced at the students and said, “They’re just students, not soldiers. They won’t have a tacit understanding with each other, and if there are too many of them, they might even interfere with the performance of others.”
“I only need them to provide me with powerful firepower when I advance.”
It was only then that Zhou Mingrui realized Yan Wuyue’s strong self-confidence and leadership charm.
“Everyone, please be quiet and listen to me.”
Yan Wuyue jumped onto a stone and shouted to the crowd. The next moment, hundreds of eyes turned to her.
“I’m sure everyone’s feeling very nervous about this sudden situation. I’ve read about this situation in an ancient book, and I already have a rough idea of what it is.”
“First of all, I’m not gathering everyone here to escape. If any of you are afraid of death, you can leave now because what I’m about to do is very dangerous.”
“Don’t worry, backing out now doesn’t mean anything. You’re just being responsible for your precious lives.”
“But I won’t, because I know why I’m becoming stronger.”
