Listening to Luo Ji's sentiments, Li Qingyu nodded in empathy.

really....

You've grown so much...

If it were him back then, he probably wouldn't even be out of bed yet...

"How did you kill him?" Li Qingyu asked, somewhat curious.

“Hmm…” After pondering for a while, Luo Ji slowly said, “My talent can intimidate a target, right? I intimidate, and Xiao Jin goes up and bites.”

As he spoke, Luo Ji pointed to the small koi carp above his head.

At this moment, the little koi was looking at the tentacle turtle in the small fish tank on the balcony with a terrified expression.

"oh...."

Li Qingyu blinked, unsure of what to say.

He has indeed grown up; he even dares to release fish to bite people now, quite like his former self.

"Go on," Li Qingyu gestured for Luo Ji to continue.

“And that was it. I only encountered these two living beings from beginning to end.” Roger shrugged and continued, “I explored the surrounding area in the white mist and found the ruins of the school, but unfortunately there were no living creatures.”

"As for this black stadium, its atmosphere was too terrifying, so I didn't dare to go near it."

Listening to Luo Ji's introduction, Li Qingyu narrowed his eyes. "By the way, how long have you been here?"

"How long? Less than a day, I guess." Roger glanced at his watch. "Definitely not twelve hours."

Less than twelve hours...

Li Qingyu roughly understood.

Roger was indeed admitted through a special admission program, and Orange was probably admitted through a special admission program as well.

However, something went wrong with that goose, and it eventually turned into a negative energy puppet.

As for Luo Ji's little koi fish, it was probably too lucky, because nothing happened to it. It escorted Luo Ji here and directly restored his original body and memories.

Although there are still many details that need to be examined, Li Qingyu felt that it was probably pretty close to the truth.

After getting a general understanding of the situation, Li Qingyu decided not to stay there any longer.

He stood up and casually tossed his straw hat onto the coffee table.

"I'll go out and take a look first, and deal with the Black Stadium while I'm at it. Then we'll go back and rejoin the main group. You can sit here and wait. If you're bored, you can watch TV."

Without waiting for Luo Ji's reply, Li Qingyu walked outside.

Only Roger remained, staring blankly at the antique television in front of him.

no way....

It's not that Li Qingyu didn't want to bring Luo Ji along, it's just that Luo Ji's personality is what it is, so it's best not to force it.

to be honest.

In fact, Li Qingyu knew that the Special Security Bureau definitely possessed the kind of potion that could transform contestants into super soldiers, just like the Witch Clan or the Golem Angel Clan.

but....

These potions that rapidly enhance strength all have significant side effects, the only difference being the amount.

Li Qingyu could understand the Special Security Bureau's decision not to use the drug.

For example, the witch tribe's half-puppet soldiers and the angelic elephant tribe's fanatical soldiers have increased their combat power, but what's the use? Aren't they still cannon fodder? The strength increased by external forces is always limited.

Ultimately, it all comes down to personal growth.

With a sigh, Li Qingyu had already arrived outside Pineapple Castle.

After glancing at the striking black stadium in the distance, Li Qingyu looked around at the surrounding white mist.

After a moment's thought, Li Qingyu's figure vanished instantly.

Not long after, Li Qingyu appeared in front of the Black Stadium.

Looking at the stadium in front of him, Li Qingyu narrowed his eyes.

Roger was right; there were indeed no living creatures left, only the ruins of the school.

In just a short while, at a speed of 3.8 million, Li Qingyu had already searched the entire area within a ten-mile radius, and indeed found nothing.

Therefore, this black stadium in front of us should be the only anomaly in this white hemisphere.

"By the way, since you said it's a white hemisphere and a black hemisphere, if I run in one direction, will I run from the white hemisphere to the black hemisphere?"

Suddenly, Li Qingyu thought of a question and asked it in his mind.

[Crimson: You can try it, don't go in a straight line, go in an arc.]

Well....

That sounds a bit silly.

Thinking of this.

Li Qingyu put aside his distracting thoughts.

With a thought, the Empress Armor appeared.

With a loose grasp of his right hand, the sword of pain and madness appeared.

With everything ready, Li Qingyu stomped his left foot and leaped into the black stadium.

You know what...

The dark, blood-red aura surrounding Li Qingyu actually matched the black stadium quite well!

However, Li Qingyu, who had leaped into the air, realized something was wrong. He had thought he could see directly into the stadium from mid-air, but...

The negative energy inside the stadium was so overwhelming that Li Qingyu could only see it as a tangible force spreading throughout the space. It was like a pot of boiling water steaming; nothing else could be seen but the steam.

Oh well, if I can't see it, I can't see it...

Li Qingyu didn't care; with his defense, he was invincible!

Yes, Li Qingyu had a very high opinion of himself.

Bang!

Soon, Li Qingyu was enveloped in a dense layer of negative energy and landed on the gymnasium floor.

And you know what? Although you can't see anything from the outside into the stadium.

But when Li Qingyu stood inside the black stadium, he found that the visibility was actually not low.

At least....

Li Qingyu saw something not far away.

Two figures sitting directly opposite each other.

One of them...

She was wearing a white school uniform, had a petite figure, and a clearly visible black-eyed white fish mark between her eyebrows.

Okay... it's Li Qingyu's old classmate again...

Fat Tiger Ma!

And another one...

Li Qingyu sighed helplessly...

She wore an orange witch's robe, had a slender figure, and her head was...

Uh...it has no head...

There was only a pink hairdryer, serving as a substitute for a head...

Li Qingyu was truly convinced.

Ma Panghu is the embodiment of the Heavenly Dao in this negative universe, so it's understandable that I see him often.

Why is your damned witch's hairdryer so persistent? I can see it everywhere! Is witchcraft civilization toxic? It's so hard to deal with.

Or is it...?

Besides the fact that Blue Star's strength is a bit overpowered, White Star's strength is also overpowered?

Despite his inner complaints, Li Qingyu acted swiftly.

In a flash, he appeared beside the hairdryer and slashed with his sword.

I don't care how difficult you are to deal with, just kill you!

However, just as Li Qingyu's sword was about to fall...

"unreasonable!"

Ma Panghu, the black-eyed white fish, tilted his head and swept his calm gaze across them.

In an instant.

Li Qingyu's arm stopped, as if time had stood still, and he made no further progress.

At this moment, Li Qingyu's eyes were deep and thoughtful.
