Chapter 27 To avoid death without a burial place, I decided -
The visitor was the Director of Education who had been searched nearby.
He sensed the human presence and rushed over.
As soon as I arrived here, I saw the white cat squatting in front of a dead inspector. The inspector's body was badly broken. With the Director of the Education Department's strong eyesight, he could see the irregular bite marks on the inspector's body from a distance.
The white cat was curiously fiddling with the watch that the warrior had given it before his death. It had never seen such a technological creation before.
The white cat had its back to the director. When the director saw the white cat's back swaying, he thought the white cat was eating people and immediately became furious.
"How dare you eat people? Die!"
The director attacked angrily, using the Heavenly Stele Palm to strike through the air.
"I am not..."
The white cat was frightened and dodged quickly.
However, a powerful suction force suddenly erupted from the center of the giant blood and energy palm, and the white cat was unable to dodge and was hit directly.
Fortunately, monsters have thick skin and the white cat was not an ordinary monster, so it was not beaten to death.
He was just hit so hard that he flew backwards and fell into the ground far away, spitting out blood.
"I made a deal with him! I didn't kill him!"
The white cat roared angrily.
The director sneered: "You are so tough, do you think I will believe your lies? Die!"
He had already realized that this cat demon was no simple beast, so he used all his strength, trying to kill it with one blow.
"I never lie!"
The white cat was angry, but it was not angry because the director suddenly attacked it.
However, the white cat was already injured, and was attacked by the director just now, making its injuries even worse.
"How can you claim that a dirty cat is innocent?"
The white cat was angry and wanted to say something, but when he saw the director slapping him again, and this time the power was even more terrifying than the previous one, the white cat did not dare to say anything anymore. The ochre beads on its head shone brightly and its size shrank by nearly one third.
Then the earth shook and the mountains and rivers shifted!
"Don't leave, monster!"
The director was shocked and arrived in an instant, slapping down with a palm of unparalleled power.
The white cat couldn't dodge in time and was hit right on the head. It screamed miserably and was carried away by the drastic changes in the ground's veins.
"The mysterious changes in the Mysterious Realm of the Mountain of Ten Thousand Beasts were caused by you!"
The director wanted to chase it again, but he had already lost track of the white cat.
His brows were furrowed. The earth's veins were changing drastically, and even he himself had no idea where he was.
The body of the young warrior naturally disappeared along with the surging earth veins.
The director cursed angrily in a low voice: "Damn cat demon!"
…
The White Cat was hit head-on, but at the critical moment, regardless of the cost, he used the Earth Dragon Ball to forcibly modify the earth veins, allowing himself to forcibly escape.
But it's not much better.
It was already seriously injured, and the encounter with the Director further injured it. Then, regardless of the cost, it forced the Earth Dragon Ball to activate, and its cranial cavity was damaged... At this moment, the white cat was lying in the woods somewhere, bleeding from all seven cavities, and dying.
"Damn humans! If I have the chance, I will definitely go to the human world and eat all your fish!"
It said harsh words that no one could hear, and its consciousness became increasingly blurred.
"Hoo, hoo... There's no other way, sister... You must, survive, sister, I'm going to sleep first..."
At this point, the white cat's consciousness fell into endless darkness.
As the white cat's consciousness faded, the layer of snow-white hair on its body suddenly turned black at a rapid speed!
The white cat turned into a black cat.
The black cat opened its eyes, its look lively and a little confused.
"Meow~"
…
"Ji Ruo, where is this place?"
Liang Shixian asked in a low voice.
Ji Ruo raised his eyebrows: "Is this your first time taking the martial arts exam?"
Liang Shixian was stunned for a moment: "Yes."
Ji Ruo rolled his eyes: "What a coincidence, me too."
Liang Shixian: “…”
Suddenly, the earth's veins surged and the mountains and rivers shifted. In their current state, it was even difficult for them to see clearly the changes in the surrounding scenery.
The violent earthquake almost made the two of them vomit.
Fortunately, neither of them was in any serious trouble, they just got lost.
They were currently on a hillside, with no familiar scenery around them. Ji Ruo was constantly using his [absolute sense of direction] to find a safe direction.
But maybe it was because Ji Ruo was too weak, even his [absolute sense of direction] couldn't bring him 'safety'.
All directions are very dangerous!
"roar!"
At this time, a loud roar was heard in the distance. The two looked in the direction of the sound and saw a white giant ape tens of meters tall, with its head piercing through the treetops, roaring towards the sky.
“Ga~Ga~”
A large black bird flew over from another direction, with a wingspan of unknown meters, like a huge dark cloud.
The Kuiniu that leaps across the sky on one foot, the giant fish that swims across the sky...
Liang Shixian trembled and said in a trembling voice: "Ji, Ji Ruo, what should we do now?"
Liang Shixian is now at a loss and panicking - he might see some monsters that only exist in high school legends anywhere. It would be a lie to say that he is not panicking.
Having the courage to die does not mean you are not afraid of death.
To be honest, Ji Ruo was also very panicked.
But he still calmly analyzed: "Our current situation is probably that we are newbies who have mistakenly entered the advanced map... We can't beat them, and we can't run away. Now, there is only one way!"
"What can we do?"
Ji Ruo pointed at the ground and said, "I think the feng shui here is good. Why don't we dig a grave first?"
Liang Shixian: “???”
God, the feng shui is pretty good!
Liang Shixian wanted to say something, but he saw Ji Ruo bending down and starting to dig...
"...Ji Ruo, can you be more serious?"
"Have you forgotten how we avoided the Spider Queen before? The martial arts exam will end in four days, and we will be teleported out by then... We are level six martial artists, and we won't die even if we lie down for a few days without food or water. Hiding and holding on for four days is the only solution I can think of."
"Ah, this..."
"Don't talk nonsense, dig quickly!" Ji Ruo said seriously.
This map is really too advanced, even the sword and sword can't handle it!
There were deadly dangers in all directions, so Ji Ruo didn't dare to run away.
I can only dig a hole to bury myself in, brush up a [disguise], and wait for the martial arts exam to end...
Liang Shixian opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but suddenly a powerful monster roared from the distance. Liang Shixian was frightened and trembled. He dared not say anything more. He bent down and started digging the hole with Ji Ruo.
Ji Ruo said, "Let's dig a grave first and lie down there. If something unexpected happens, we won't die without a burial place, right?"
Liang Shixian: “…”
…
Yuncheng, Class 3-4, Senior High School.
The martial arts exam has reached the third day.
The atmosphere in the class is still heavy.
Those two classmates still haven't come back.
The hope of survival is already very slim.
"Students," said class teacher Li Bindao in a deep voice, "Students Ji Ruo and Liang Shixian have not returned yet. You all should know what this means... Although I don't want to accept this result, the Education Department has sent news that they have found some warriors to patrol the exam.
The warriors who were on patrol suffered heavy casualties."
The implication is that the two sixth-level martial arts students are likely to be in danger.
"Four days later, our school will hold a memorial service at the flag-raising square. I hope all the students will come to attend..." Li Bin said with a depressed look: "The deceased is gone, students, don't be too sad, you still have a long way to go... The higher-ups have decided to abolish the secret realm martial arts examination system, and the new martial arts examination system is still under negotiation. All students will have to take the martial arts examination again. This time, it will be very safe... Please make sure to calm down and prepare for the new martial arts examination..."
"Teacher, I, I want to drop out of school, I don't want to take the exam anymore..."
A girl whispered, with a hint of tears in her voice: "I don't want to take the exam anymore..."
Li Bindao was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously advised: "Student Zhang Miaoyi, the teacher hopes that you can persevere a little longer. You have good talent. When your meridians are opened in the future, you will definitely become a powerful warrior..."
"But teacher, didn't the examiner die?" Zhang Miaoyi suddenly burst into tears: "Teacher, I'm scared, I don't want to die, I want to go home and not take the exam anymore, wuwuwuwu..."
"Sheet……"
Li Bindao wanted to say something else.
Suddenly, Zhang Miaoyi's crying was like a signal, and most of the students in the class started crying.
"Teacher, I'm afraid of death!"
"I don't want to be a warrior anymore!"
"I won't take the exam either!"
They were just a group of kids who had experienced life and death before they had even completely left school. It was human nature to be afraid of death.
Although everyone in Daxia advocates martial arts, and every student receives martial arts education from an early age.
But, these children have only killed poultry such as chickens and ducks!
Some students witnessed their peers being torn to pieces and eaten by monsters during the martial arts exam. The horrific scene left an indelible psychological shadow in their hearts.
They were already filled with fear, their martial arts were shrouded in a cloud, and they had lost the courage to move forward.
"My fellow students, please think about it again. After all, this is a major event in life... Alas..."
Li Bindao suddenly sighed and said uninterested: "Teacher knows, I will report to the school. Students, if you don't want to take the martial arts exam anymore, and don't plan to study martial arts anymore, you can make a list for me... Martial arts is about moving forward courageously, and it is about doing something even though you know it's impossible. Teacher won't force you, just give up if you want to..."
The students began to sign.
There were a total of 46 students in Class 4 of Senior Grade 3. Two did not return, and 36 gave up the exam. In the end, only eight students were still hesitating.
Li Bindao sighed again and said only one sentence: "Four days later, there will be a memorial service for the whole school. All students, remember to come. Ji Ruo and Liang Shixian... Alas."
He walked out of the classroom slowly, as if he had aged several decades in an instant. Even though he was a warrior, his back was no longer as straight as before.
