Along the way, Zhou Mingrui constantly observed the surrounding environment and quickly memorized the terrain.
Soon, Zhou Mingrui followed Zhao Anqi and the others to the wall.
After studying the wall and seeing that their combined attacks were futile, Zhao Anqi immediately began to command her team.
First, Zhao Anqi used her flying summoned beast and tried to fly past the wall with her followers.
However, after they flew up and hit the invisible barrier in the sky, Zhao Anqi immediately dismissed the idea.
“Dig! Since we can’t fly out of the sky, we’ll dig a tunnel underground!” Zhao Anqi frowned as she looked at the wall.
Next, the group immediately began to select and gather dozens of summoning spirits with digging abilities. Under the command, they began to dig wildly into the soil under the wall.
Zhou Mingrui did not participate or stop them. He simply stood in his spot and quietly observed their actions.
Zhou Mingrui knew very well that if it were so easy to escape, the academy would have sent people in to rescue them long ago. How could the people outside the wall wait so long without taking any action?
“Why aren’t you saying anything or doing anything?”
Zhou Mingrui’s reaction immediately attracted Zhao Anqi’s attention.
“Your effort is futile and you’re wasting your energy.” Zhou Mingrui shook his head slightly.
“Why do you say that?” Zhao Anqi immediately asked.
“Have you thought why no one has come to save us yet? Don’t tell me that all the teachers and directors in the academy are inferior to you?” Zhou Mingrui’s made a reasonable analysis.
“You’re right. Is it possible that they haven’t thought of the digging method yet?” Zhao Anqi thought for a moment and said.
“We can’t rule out this possibility, but I think with the strength and intelligence of the powerhouses at the academy, I don’t think they will give up or can’t think of this method. Zhou Mingrui immediately retorted.
At this point, Zhao Anqi fell silent. She knew that Zhou Mingrui was right. But they had come this far. No matter what would happen, she could not back up now. Otherwise, how would she be able to face others in the school?
A few moments later, people emerged from the holes the summoned spirits had dug. When they appeared, they looked at Zhao Anqi, and their expressions said everything.
Even if they dug a tunnel, they still could not escape from this place. There was no way to escape from this place.
Zhao Anqi started to feel anxious when she saw everyone’s eyes on her.
However, she was at her wit’s end now. If she had the ability, she wanted to smash the wall in front of her with a punch.
“Zhao Anqi, what do we do now?”
This sentence immediately set off the mood of everyone. The expressions on their faces changed one by one, and worries began to spread in the field.
“Enough, what’s the point of saying all this now? What we should do is find a new way to get out of here, not keep on nagging and making no progress here!” Zhou Mingrui’s voice broke the awkward situation that Zhao Anqi was in.
“You betrayed your summoner, and you still have the face to criticize us?” A student walked out and asked angrily.
Upon hearing that, Zhou Mingrui immediately charged at the student.
The latter reacted. The summoning spirit that resembled an octopus from the ocean hurriedly stepped forward to protect him. At the same time, four of its tentacles quickly reached out in an attempt to restrain Zhou Mingrui.
Upon seeing this, Zhou Mingrui did not even move. Instead, he stomped the ground with the tip of his foot and immediately burst out with an even faster speed.
At the same time, the super-fast speed gave Zhou Mingrui a powerful force. He knocked off the four tentacles to the side and arrived in front of the octopus summoning spirit.
The octopus summoning spirit was already rooted to the spot in a daze. When Zhou Mingrui arrived in front of it, the terrifying aura he released had already stunned it.
“Let me give you a word of advice. If you don’t have the strength, just listen quietly. There’s no need to make a fuss and embarrass yourself here.”
“If you want to continue, follow me. If you can’t, you can get lost now.”
Zhou Mingrui did not continue his attack. Instead, he stopped and turned to head in another direction after speaking.
Zhao Anqi was the first to follow. At this point, she had no other choice but to place her hopes on Zhou Mingrui.
The remaining people looked at each other in dismay. However, after seeing Zhou Mingrui’s strength, many students changed their thoughts. Most of them followed Zhou Mingrui.
Soon, under Zhou Mingrui’s lead, the group arrived at a dense forest.
If someone could fly high up in the sky to take a look, they would discover that the team led by Zhou Mingrui was advancing in the opposite direction of Yan Wuyue.
And this place was the place where he had been collecting the bones.
“I heard her say that the bones here hide some secret. Since we have no other way, let’s try to find something here.” Zhou Mingrui said.
“What else could there be in this pile of bones?” Zhou Anqi, who was following behind, asked.
“It’s something that can save your life at a critical moment.” Zhou Mingrui’s tone was no longer as friendly as before. Instead, it had turned cold with a hint of impatience.
However, Zhao Anqi didn’t seem to mind. On the contrary, the worried look on her face seemed to have lightened a little.
The Zhao Anqi of today was no longer as arrogant and despotic as before. On the contrary, she had begun to rely on Zhou Mingrui in the depths of her heart.
“Now, let’s start cleaning up these bones. If there are any intact skeletons, remember to take them out and place them on the other side. This is very likely the key to your escape.” Zhou Mingrui said to the people who had already followed him and were standing there waiting for instructions.
Those people were stunned again. At this time, they had to clean up these bones?
“If you don’t want to do it, you can get lost now. I’m not Yan Wuyue or Zhao Anqi, and I won’t spoil you!” Zhou Mingrui’s voice suddenly rose in pitch. At the same time, it carried a hint of ferocity.
Even though this group of students had gone through the mystic realm trial, they were still frightened by the sudden outburst of Zhou Mingrui’s ferocious aura.
Following that, the students began to suppress their disgust and horror as they began to help Zhou Mingrui sort out the white bones that had been laid out in the dense forest.
With the help of more than a hundred people, they managed to clear the skeletons pretty fast. Soon, some complete skeletons of good quality were separated.
In particular, there was a skeleton that was almost one-third complete. When Zhou Mingrui raised his hand to touch it, he sensed an extremely unique aura from it.
