Not long after the dean left, the stone statue that was intact and clearly showing the image of the secret realm had turned into a vast expanse of white.
"What's going on? Why is there no picture all of a sudden?" Liu Yeqing muttered to himself with a look of astonishment on his face.
He hurried forward and stretched out his hands to try to restore the image on the stone statue, but no matter how hard he tried, there was still only the confusing white before his eyes, with no change at all.
Even worse, tiny cracks began to appear on the stone statue, spreading rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye. Finally, with a crisp sound, the entire stone statue completely shattered into countless pieces.
Witnessing the instantaneous shattering of the stone image, it felt as if the air itself had frozen, and a deathly silence enveloped the entire room. After all, nothing so bizarre and strange had ever happened before.
Their hearts instantly jumped into their throats. Someone suggested opening the secret realm immediately to see what was going on.
However, when they were about to open the entrance to the secret realm, they were horrified to find that the entrance, which should have been unobstructed, was now blocked by a mysterious force and could not be opened at all.
The chill in everyone's heart grew stronger. If even the entrance to the secret realm couldn't be opened, how could those who had already entered escape?
Even if they had runes that could teleport, it would probably be useless...
However, at this moment, in the secret realm, no one realized that the surrounding environment was quietly changing.
On the third day, a horrified scream pierced the sky. A pale-faced youth pointed tremblingly forward, stammering, "Why...why is there a giant red-flame python?!"
As everyone looked at this horrifying scene, they couldn't help but feel a chill running down their spines, their backs became cold, and cold sweat instantly soaked their clothes.
Before the assessment, each elder would conduct a thorough and detailed inspection of the secret realm to ensure that there were no mistakes. Therefore, they would never allow a monster so powerful that it could easily crush them all to exist in the secret realm.
However, when faced with this terrifyingly powerful and high-level monster, everyone present knew that they were no match for it.
The wisest choice at this moment was undoubtedly to flee the scene quickly to avoid unnecessary harm. However, deep down in their hearts, they couldn't help but speculate.
The academy has always been strictly managed, so how could such a serious oversight have occurred? Perhaps this behemoth hadn't intruded by chance, but was specifically designed to test their abilities and courage.
Moreover, even if he was unfortunately attacked by the giant python, the worst result would be being teleported out of the secret realm and failing the assessment.
At this moment, someone in the crowd suddenly shouted, "Master Bai, let's attack together! If we can successfully kill this monster, we will definitely be the first place in this assessment!"
Hearing this, everyone turned their eyes to the man known as Mr. Bai.
Bai Jiu stared closely at the huge python in front of him whose eyes were flashing scarlet light. After a moment of silence, he nodded slightly, indicating that he agreed with the proposal.
Then, without hesitation, he flashed and rushed towards the terrifying red flame python like an arrow, launching a fierce attack.
However, what they did not expect was that once they actually fought with the Red Flame Python, they deeply realized how huge the gap in strength between them was.
After just one round, those who had just launched the attack with such vigor were completely helpless. With a fierce swing of the Red Flame Python's thick and powerful tail, they flew a hundred meters away like a kite with a broken string.
At this moment, Bai Jiu was the only one left in the field, still struggling to hold on and launch an offensive. However, after just a few moves, Bai Jiu gradually felt exhausted and could no longer withstand the opponent's fierce attack.
At this moment, the giant red flame python suddenly swung out its thick and powerful tail, and wrapped around Bai Jiu as quickly as lightning.
Then, the giant python opened its bloody mouth, revealing its sharp fangs, as if it was about to swallow Bai Jiu whole. At this time, Bai Jiu was in a desperate situation, his life hanging by a thread.
Looking at those people who had fallen to the ground and were seriously injured before, although they were seriously injured, they were still conscious.
At this moment, they all felt that something was amiss. Normally, if someone sustained serious damage within the secret realm, they would be instantly transported out.
But now, they could only lie on the cold ground in great pain, with no sign of being teleported away.
Just as Bai Jiu was about to be sent into the giant python's mouth, a cold light suddenly flashed and pierced straight into one of the eyes of the red flame giant python with lightning speed.
Instantly, the giant red-flame python let out a shrill scream, its massive head toppling over in pain. At the same time, the tail that had been tightly wrapped around Bai Jiu also involuntarily loosened.
Seeing this, Bai Jiu immediately seized the opportunity, flipped over nimbly, and landed steadily on the ground.
At this moment, everyone looked up and saw Mu Ze and seven other Mu family members standing in the air, forming an octagonal shape to surround the giant red-flame python.
Immediately afterwards, dazzling rays of light suddenly burst out from their bodies, like gorgeous rainbows intertwined together, quickly forming a formation.
As the formation was activated, a dense rain of swords suddenly fell from the sky, piercing straight towards the giant red flame python and ruthlessly piercing through the giant python's huge body.
The Red Flame Python, which suffered such severe damage, let out a painful roar, and its long body began to twist and wriggle violently, as if making its last struggle.
Finally, it suddenly dived into the soil under its feet and disappeared without a trace in an instant, leaving only a huge hole to prove that it had been there.
Seeing the giant red-flame python flee, Mu Ze breathed a sigh of relief and waved his hand to withdraw the formation. After all, with their current strength, being able to successfully drive away this ferocious monster was a blessing in disguise. If they continued to fight, the outcome would be unpredictable.
At the same time, Xie Qi was feeding healing pills to every injured person to repair their damaged meridians and wounds.
With the help of Xie Qi's medicine, those who were originally seriously injured and on the verge of death gradually recovered.
They supported each other and slowly gathered together, forming a circle.
