"Idiot, who needs your protection?"
Chu Lingxiao gently patted Gu Qingze's head, and then spoke in a serious tone.
"If you encounter a danger you can't resolve, don't worry about me. Go ahead and come back to rescue me when you have the chance. I'm not teaming up with you to curry your favor, nor am I trying to drag you down. You must treat me as an equal partner."
Seeing his serious expression, Gu Qingze also put away his joking attitude.
"Okay, I promise you. But I will definitely save you as long as I am able."
The bonfire was rising, and the warm flames shone on the faces of the two people. They unknowingly reached another agreement.
Chu Lingxiao smiled, then raised his head and saw the teacher in charge waving to everyone, and then all the students present looked over.
"This time, we'll be conducting our first trial in the Morincross Wilderness. This is now our camp. You'll depart from here tomorrow and engage in a head-on battle with the spirit beasts within. A reminder: there are many dangerous spirit beasts in the core area of this wilderness. Your activities will be confined to the outer reaches of the wilderness, which are teeming with low-level spirit beasts. Even so, with your abilities, you'll need to work together to resolve them."
As Gu Qingze guessed, this time it was a cooperative battle.
The leading teacher looked around, and his steady and powerful voice echoed in the camp. Every student was listening carefully. They all understood clearly that this was not a joke, but a real battle. If they were not careful, they would become a meal for the spirit beast.
"Even the lowest-level spirit beasts have the strength of the late foundation-building stage. High-level spirit beasts have even reached the spirit transformation stage. As for the most core spirit beasts, their cultivation is beyond my ability to describe. Therefore, you must not go too deep into there!"
At this point, his voice had become somewhat stern. Although he had agreed to Qingyun Sect's request under pressure, he still attached great importance to the safety of his students.
Everyone nodded. They were not stupid enough to seek death because of their curiosity. Let alone a high-level spirit beast, even if they encountered a mid-level one, they would run as far away as possible.
Are you kidding? Even if they fail the trial and can't enter the big sect, they will just feel it's a pity.
Who among those present wasn't a young master or young lady from a family? Cultivating immortality wasn't something that ordinary people could afford. Even if they lost their spots, they could easily inherit a position and live a life of luxury and pleasure. There was no need to risk their lives.
"The top three teams in this trial will be eligible to enter the second round of trials and be rewarded with Xuan-level intermediate spiritual skills!"
The teacher's expression gradually relaxed. He looked at the boys and girls in front of him who were full of fighting spirit and smiled slightly.
"So, in order to achieve good results, cooperate with your companions. With your current strength, you must also adopt some cooperation to survive in the outer area."
"yes."
Everyone responded in unison.
"After hunting spirit beasts, don't forget to collect their crystal cores. This is the standard used to evaluate your performance!"
Gu Qingze nodded slightly. The content of the trial was very normal and easy to understand. The teacher in charge talked most about safety issues.
"Okay, it's almost time. You should all rest early. Tomorrow morning, we will enter the outer area and begin the formal trial!"
After hearing this, everyone gradually dispersed with a hint of excitement, and Gu Qingze and Chu Lingxiao also returned to their tent. However, they did not choose to sleep, but closed their eyes to practice, keeping in the best condition to face tomorrow.
