Shen Xingyue waited for a long time, but when Qian Shudie did not return, she became anxious.

He hasn't come back for so long, could something have happened to him?

Just as she was about to go to the bushes to check the situation, Qian Shudie's figure reappeared in her field of vision.

Shen Xingyue breathed a sigh of relief and patted her chest. "That's great! You're finally back. I thought you encountered some danger over there."

Qian Shudie smiled apologetically, "I'm just feeling a little unwell all of a sudden. Okay, let's continue?"

"Uh-huh!"

Behind them, Su Nian watched the two leave, then turned and disappeared into the darkness, heading ahead to the third checkpoint to prepare.

There's no need to worry about safety in the second trial. Firstly, this bracelet is a life-saving artifact he made himself, and secondly, several elders in the main hall are constantly observing the situation in the Other Shore Forest to protect the safety of the participants.

The two continued their journey together, and after demonstrating their astonishing abilities, the alias "Dream Butterfly" spread throughout the Forest of the Other Shore.

Almost all the contestants understood Qian Shudie's methods and dared not confront her directly, not to mention that Shen Xingyue, who was also at the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment, was by her side.

Over the next two days, the two encountered almost no obstacles.

Apart from the first sawtooth tiger beast we encountered, which was at the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm, all the magical beasts we encountered in the next two days were only at the Foundation Establishment or Qi Refining stages.

It's hard not to suspect that the saw-toothed tiger was just trying to scare people.

After two days of wandering around, the two had made a great haul, with the counts in their bracelets both exceeding two hundred.

However, strangely enough, they are encountering fewer and fewer fellow contestants.

There were more than fifty disciples who entered the second trial together, but after just two days, they couldn't see a single one of them.

Not only them, but even the Third Elder, who stayed in the main hall to observe the contestants' every move, did not see any other contestants.

After the first day, apart from the Third Elder, the other elders all left because they had important matters to attend to, leaving the Third Elder alone to guard the place.

After witnessing several contestants go missing, the Third Elder originally intended to report the matter to higher authorities.

But then she saw the shadow of a familiar person in Wang Mu.

Ye Hua.

Ye Hua seemed to sense that someone was watching him, and gave the crystal ball a wicked smile.

That smile completely captivated the Third Elder.

"It's him? Ye Hua is back?" The Third Elder was overjoyed.

"I knew it! I knew he would come back!"

As the Third Elder was excited, the high-level parasitic demon within her body also began to stir with excitement.

After walking for another two days, Qian Shudie and Shen Xingyue finally noticed something was wrong.

They sensed a dangerous aura near an open space.

They were very familiar with this aura; it came from the saw-toothed tiger beast that had almost sent them away that day.

They hid in the bushes. Shen Xingyue shushed her and prepared to pull Qian Shudie away from there.

"Wait a moment!"

Before Shen Xingyue could take a few steps, Qian Shudie suddenly noticed something was wrong.

She furrowed her brows slightly, sniffed lightly, and seemed to detect a faint smell of blood in the air.

"It seems to be injured, but it shouldn't pose any threat."

Having said that, he walked toward the source of the bloody smell.

Shen Xingyue grew anxious from behind.

Hey! Don't go over there!

Ignoring all obstacles, Qian Shudie climbed over the bushes and found the dying saw-toothed tiger beast.

The sawtooth tiger lay on the ground with a large gash in its abdomen, bleeding profusely. Sensing someone's arrival, it let out a weak roar, seemingly trying to drive the intruder away.

Unfortunately, it failed. Qian Shudie was not afraid at all. Instead, she went straight to its side and checked its injuries.

"Such a serious injury." Qian Shudie frowned, unable to bear it.

Shen Xingyue arrived at her side at this moment. Seeing the dying saw-toothed tiger, she said with a hint of doubt, "It's dying? Strange... Who did this?"

The Sawtooth Tiger Beast is at the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm, while the disciples who came here for trials are all at the Foundation Establishment stage. Could it be... the last Foundation Establishment Grand Perfection cultivator whom we've never met before?

Shen Xingyue thought it was very likely!

She exclaimed excitedly, "Great! This serrated tiger isn't completely dead yet! Now, if we deliver the final blow, these points are ours! Mid-stage Golden Core points! How many points are that?"

The thousand books and butterflies remained oblivious.

She reached out and gently stroked the sawtooth tiger. The sawtooth tiger looked at her, seemingly recognizing her, and gently nuzzled Qian Shudie's hand with its head, making weak moaning sounds.

Qian Shudie was taken aback. "You...know me?"

The sawtooth tiger made a weak grunt.

"As expected... you are the sawtooth tiger beast that I rescued when I came to Rivet City."

The saw-toothed tiger let out another soft "hmm".

"Shudie, what are you talking about?" Shen Xingyue looked at her in confusion. "You know this saw-toothed tiger beast?"

Qian Shudie turned her head and nodded, "I encountered this serrated tiger beast outside before. It was seriously injured in a fight with its own kind, and I saved it."

"Oh...I see." Shen Xingyue nodded.

Then she asked, "So what do you plan to do now?"

Qian Shudie thought for a moment and took out her medical supplies from her storage ring.

"Since I'm destined to save it, I'll try again!"

Shen Xingyue's eyes widened. "Are you crazy! This is a saw-toothed tiger beast that only kills people! What if you save it and it bites you back?"
