Just then, a huge commotion suddenly came from the once peaceful depths of the jungle.

The sound, like muffled thunder, rolled in from afar, causing the ground to tremble slightly.

Zhang Baiyun's face turned deathly pale instantly. He stared wide-eyed in terror at the direction of the jungle.

"Oh no! It's a seventh-grade wild beast!" Zhang Baiyun exclaimed in shock.

Before he finished speaking, he flashed forward, swiftly drawing his long sword from his waist. Without hesitation, he shouted to the three people behind him, "Retreat! I'll hold it off, you guys find a chance to escape!"

At this moment, Zhang Baiyun's face was resolute, and the long sword in his hand gleamed with a cold light, as if he was ready to fight this powerful wild beast to the death.

"howl--"

However, at this critical moment, a deafening and thunderous roar suddenly came from the depths of the jungle!

The sound seemed to penetrate through layers of branches and thick air, reaching the depths of one's soul.

Immediately afterwards, accompanied by a deafening roar that shook the earth, an enormous wild beast burst out of the dense forest like a bolt of lightning!

Its majestic body, as imposing as a mountain range, is covered with countless golden spots, twinkling like brilliant stars in the night sky.

Each spot radiated a dazzling light, making the beast appear even more majestic and awe-inspiring.

With the appearance of this wild beast, an overwhelming and incredibly powerful aura of the beast swept over us like a raging storm!

The aura was so powerful and domineering that it was almost impossible to breathe.

Zhang Qingyun and Zhou Ping were the first to be enveloped by this terrifying aura.

Their faces turned deathly pale in an instant, devoid of any color, and their bodies trembled uncontrollably, their hearts filled with unprecedented fear and despair.

"boom--"

With a deafening roar, the jungle leopard burst forth from the dense forest like a bolt of lightning.

In that instant, Zhang Baiyun leaped into the air without hesitation, pouncing on the wild leopard like a nimble falcon.

He gripped a gleaming longsword tightly in his hand, his inner strength surging as he unleashed his most powerful attack.

Suddenly, a sharp blade of light, over ten feet long, shot out from the longsword, like a ferocious dragon, carrying boundless power and killing intent, and slashed straight down at the wild leopard.

The blade of light ripped through the void, tearing apart the air in its path and producing a sharp, piercing whistling sound.

However, the jungle leopard showed no fear in the face of such a powerful attack.

It opened its blood-red maw and let out a deafening roar, as if it would shake the entire world.

Immediately afterwards, it quickly raised its thick and powerful right claw and swung it out.

With a muffled thud, the leopard's right paw collided violently with the blade light unleashed by Zhang Baiyun.

In an instant, a tremendous force erupted, forming a visible shockwave that spread outwards.

The surrounding trees shook violently under the impact of the shockwave, with branches and leaves flying everywhere.

Shockingly, despite the astonishing power of Zhang Baiyun's full-force sword aura, it proved utterly ineffective against the terrifying strength of the jungle leopard.

In an instant, the blade's edge was easily shattered by the leopard's right claw, turning into countless fragments that dissipated into the air.

The leopard's right claw was only slightly injured by the attack, with a few drops of blood seeping out and dripping onto the ground.

"howl--"

With a deafening roar, the jungle leopard sped forward like lightning, its speed astonishing, and in the blink of an eye it had reached Zhang Baiyun.

Faced with such a fierce attack, Zhang Baiyun was shocked, but his instincts from years of martial arts training made him react quickly. He gripped his long sword tightly with both hands and thrust it forward with all his might, trying to block the wild leopard's pounce.

However, the leopard's strength was simply too great; its sharp, blade-like claws slammed heavily onto the blade.

With a loud clang, a tremendous impact instantly spread throughout Zhang Baiyun's body, as if a thousand-pound weight had suddenly crashed down on him.

He felt a sharp pain in both arms, and the space between his thumb and forefinger was split open, with blood gushing out.

Despite his best efforts to resist, Zhang Baiyun was unable to withstand the terrifying force and was sent flying backward like a kite with a broken string.

After gliding through the air for a distance, Zhang Baiyun crashed heavily to the ground, raising a cloud of dust.

He felt a surge in his chest, a metallic taste rising in his throat, and he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.

His face was as pale as paper, and his breathing was erratic, clearly indicating that he had suffered a severe injury.

Zhang Baiyun struggled to her feet, her heart filled with despair and fear.

He knew perfectly well that with his strength, he was no match for this jungle leopard.

Moreover, the other three student martial artists who came with him, although they were all seventh-rank martial artists, were slightly inferior to him in strength.

If even they themselves are powerless against the Wild Leopard, how could the three of them possibly contend with it?

Are we all going to lose our lives here today?

Thinking of this, Zhang Baiyun's mood grew heavier, and cold sweat poured down his forehead.

"You beast, cease your arrogance!"

With that angry shout, Chen Feng moved like lightning, disappearing in an instant like a ghost, and was instantly teleported to the side of the jungle leopard.
