"They don't even have bottles to catch ghosts."

"I'd like to see how they accomplish their mission this time!"

Chen Yan sneered inwardly.

According to the rules, he should have assigned each pair a bottle specifically for imprisoning the spirits in advance.

These spirits are mostly reused; they scare people here, then get caught and handed over to the school, which then releases them back into the school.

However, due to the special nature of ghosts, ordinary containers are simply unable to contain them.

"The class monitor is amazing! He's already caught two!"

"Yeah, I told you, following the class monitor is definitely the right thing to do."

"What about those three geniuses... Hahaha, they're probably scared to death by some ghost in some corner."

The crowd behind them began to murmur amongst themselves.

"May the gods protect us... May the gods protect us..."

Suddenly, an old and hoarse voice echoed through the ruins.

As the sound appeared, the surrounding temperature dropped rapidly.

Everyone shuddered involuntarily and turned around to look in the direction from which the voice came from, filled with confusion.

In the dim light, a hunched figure could be seen, seemingly carrying something in his hand.

"May the gods protect you..."

"May my son return safely..."

"Anyone who disturbs the peace of the gods... can be killed..."

"Plunder their wealth...keep it...keep it..."

"My son is back to get married...hehe...he'll be back soon..."

A strange, hoarse voice echoed in the night.

The entire suburban ruins were shrouded in a thick fog.

A thick fog covered the entire ruins.

"Holy crap! There's such a thick fog."

Cao Meng, who had just reached the door, suddenly shouted.

Xu An and Master Li, who followed behind, were shocked to find that the surroundings were shrouded in mist.

"Has this happened before during the trials?"

"Is this one of the scenes designed by the school?"

Xu An frowned in confusion.

Master Li and Cao Meng exchanged a glance.

"This has never happened before."

"This time, the school must have made it too difficult."

"Don't worry, there's definitely no danger to your life!"

After a moment's thought, Cao Meng made his own judgment.

Xu An thought about it and felt that it made sense.

It's quite normal for the school to occasionally increase the difficulty of the trials intentionally.

It can also be seen as a test of students' adaptability.

However, after wandering around in the thick fog, the three of them could no longer find their way back.

During this process, Master Li subdued two more evil spirits.

The three people and three ghosts scurried about in the thick fog like headless flies.

"It's over!"

"I knew the school's trials wouldn't be that simple. We're not going to get out."

Cao Meng plopped down on the ground, panting heavily.

"Don't stray too far apart, stay close together!"

Xu An said to Cao Meng and Master Li.

In this thick fog, it is difficult to distinguish between people and animals ten meters away, and between males and females five meters away.

It would be dangerous if they got separated.

The three sat back to back on the ground, with three ghostly spirits blocking their way.

"Did you feel it?"

"I have a feeling that something is watching us from within this thick fog."

Master Li suddenly said in a deep voice.

"Damn! Don't scare me!"

Cao Meng shuddered and hurriedly said nervously.

However, Master Li's expression was solemn.

I can feel it!

Xu An nodded solemnly.

He had actually wanted to say this for a long time: something was watching from within the thick fog!

"I...I have a method..."

"Perhaps we can get out of here..."

Do you want to hear it?

Trembling, Cao Meng suddenly spoke in a low voice.
