The show, the second trial.
Once they were far away from the Sawtooth Tiger Beast, everyone rushed towards the Forest of the Other Shore.
Shen Xingyue and Qian Shudie moved extremely fast, leaving the main group behind in the blink of an eye. When they stopped, there was no one around them.
Shen Xingyue breathed a sigh of relief.
She said with lingering fear, "I didn't expect to encounter a saw-toothed tiger beast right away. It seems that this second level... is more difficult than I imagined."
Qian Shudie blinked curiously, "Then what should we do? Should we proceed cautiously from now on?"
Shen Xingyue pondered for a moment and said, "Let's not rush to conclusions. It's better to observe further before deciding on any specific actions."
She looked around and saw Qian Shudie about to say something when she suddenly shushed her.
"Don't make a sound, there seems to be a monster nearby."
Qian Shudie nodded and obediently followed behind Shen Xingyue.
The two hid in the bushes and saw a sika deer with three sharp antlers in a clearing not far away.
This sika deer is called a triangular deer. Judging from the fluctuations of spiritual energy on its body, it should be a magical beast in the early stage of Foundation Establishment.
"Got it! The Triangular Deer, early stage of Foundation Establishment, is more than enough for us to take it down."
Upon seeing the triangular deer, Shen Xingyue fell into deep thought. "It seems that besides the Sawtooth Tiger Beast, there are many other low-level magical beasts living in this forest. Sure enough... I knew it. If every magical beast is like the Sawtooth Tiger Beast, requiring multiple people to defeat, wouldn't only disciples who band together have a chance to pass this test?"
Qian Shudie thought it made perfect sense and nodded in agreement.
“It’s alone, so it must be separated from its companions. But antler deer usually live in groups, which means there are likely other antler deer around here!” Shen Xingyue said to Qian Shudie, “I’ll go and get this point first. You stay here and keep watch for me. If there’s any unusual activity, come and support me immediately!”
"Oh, okay, I understand." Qian Shudie nodded.
After saying that, Shen Xingyue rushed forward, took out a long sword from her storage ring, and went straight for the head of the antler deer!
On the other side.
After everyone left, Ye Hua returned to the starting point.
Here, the serrated tiger beast stood alone, seemingly angry because the disciples had been teleported away.
Upon seeing Ye Hua again, it roared angrily at him.
"roar--"
The sound was deafening, startling the birds in the forest.
Ye Hua drew his longsword and narrowed his eyes.
"A mere mid-stage Golden Core cultivator dares to act arrogantly in front of me? He's really tired of living."
He raised his sword and sneered, "Perfect, I'll use you to practice my newest moves!"
After saying that, Ye Hua raised his sword and charged forward.
Every move of the disciples in the Forest of the Other Shore was under the watchful eyes of the elders through their crystal balls. When they saw Ye Hua challenging the Sawtooth Tiger Beast alone, the elders all frowned.
"What is he going to do? Could it be that he wants to challenge the Sawtooth Tiger Beast alone?" the Second Elder asked, puzzled.
"Judging from this situation... it should be." The Fourth Elder nodded.
"What's the difference between this and going to your death?" The Third Elder sneered.
"No, that's not right." The Sixth Elder took out the candidate's information, read through the resume, and slowly read: "Wang Mu, from Fenglan Town, his cultivation is at the Great Perfection of the Foundation Establishment stage. He is the son of a farmer in Fenglan Town. He is very intelligent and has a remarkable record of personally killing a Golden Core stage demonic beast a month ago. This boy often fights beyond his level. For him, this sawtooth tiger beast is not something he cannot handle."
"Oh? Is that so?" The Second Elder immediately became interested, took the document from the Sixth Elder, read the detailed description, and nodded in satisfaction. "Hmm, indeed quite good. For us cultivators, it is already difficult to win against a magical beast of the same level, let alone fight a beast of a higher level. Such a disciple must have an extremely monstrous talent."
The Third Elder scoffed dismissively, "So what if he's a prodigy? The mid-stage of the Golden Core realm is not the same as the early stage. In all these years of Quanxiu, it seems there's only been one person who could do something like this in the Other Shore Forest, right?"
The elders remained silent.
They naturally knew who the Third Elder was referring to.
Ye Hua.
A year and a half ago, he killed a demonic beast in the middle stage of the Golden Core realm with only the cultivation of the early Foundation Establishment stage. Such a feat is unprecedented and will never be repeated.
At the time, everyone thought Ye Hua was an auspicious gift from heaven to Quanxiu, but no one expected that he would collude with the demons and kill his fellow disciples.
"Speaking of which, this selection of new disciples will also include an assessment of their character," the Second Elder suddenly said.
The Third Elder remained silent.
She knew she should remain silent at this point.
"It's alright, Su Nian was prepared," Li Baiyu suddenly said.
"Oh?" the Third Elder asked curiously. "What preparations?"
"You'll find out when the time comes," Li Baiyu said mysteriously.
At the entrance to the Forest of the Other Shore, Ye Hua slowly raised his sword, and a powerful flame instantly enveloped the sword in his hand, blazing fiercely!
"A Xuan-rank martial skill..." Ye Hua took a deep breath.
He suddenly rushed forward and slashed at the sawtooth tiger beast with his sword.
"Exploding Flame King Sword!"
"Roar—" The serrated tiger beast let out a deafening roar. Fearless, it charged forward, its serrated fangs emitting white light as it clashed head-on with Ye Hua's Blazing King Sword!
After a fierce exchange, a massive explosion occurred, echoing for miles around.
Su Nianfei, who was about to go find Qian Shudie, stopped halfway.
