Chapter 3 Ah yes, yes, yes!
Gu Zhi didn't expect that Nan Ran, who was usually taciturn and would not lose his temper even when scolded, and was no different from a dough-dough boy, seemed to have taken the wrong medicine today, and every word he said was full of the momentum of not stopping until he made people angry to death.
"You..." His face was as black as if it had been rubbed off the bottom of a pot. He couldn't utter a word to refute, but he was unwilling to be scolded like this. In the end, he could only force out one sentence: "Even if I am the second to last, I am still better than you who are the last!"
"Ah, yes, yes!"
Nan Ran sneered: "Then you must protect this little advantage you have."
"If you can't do that, write a big-character poster, sew it on your clothes, wear it every day, and tell everyone you meet, 'You're the second to last, you're awesome, you're the best!'"
"you……"
Gu Zhi was furious. It was wrong to talk back, and it was wrong not to talk back. He felt like he was in a suffocating state, knowing that the other person was a ball of cotton, but whether he fought or not was still a suffocating feeling.
"Alright, you two! You're never going to stop bickering, are you? If we delay any longer, the sun will set and we'll all be eliminated before we even reach the junction of the outer and inner circles."
Yeats was the best among these people.
Seeing the two of them wasting time and arguing uselessly, he immediately stood up and scolded them.
Then, she looked at Gu Zhi with a hint of annoyance in her eyes. "Shi Qing and I just noticed something was wrong. Didn't you guys notice? Ever since we entered this forest, we haven't heard any other sounds. It's so eerie and quiet."
"Shi Qing and I both suspect that there might be a large monster lurking nearby, and we were just about to tell you."
Ye Zhi glanced at Nan Ran: "It's just that none of us expected it to be the Flaming Lion."
Nan Ran was a little surprised. She didn't expect that Ye Zhi actually believed what she said.
But soon, she understood the reason from what Qing said when she came over and stood with Ye Zhi.
"Gu Zhi, you haven't forgotten, have you? Although Nan Ran's test scores have been poor for many years, she is a natural pure spirit body and can sense the breath of monsters more accurately than the rest of us."
In other words, although Nan Ran is the last one, his influence is far greater than Gu Zhi, who is the second to last one.
Nan Ran understood instantly.
I became curious about myself, a pure spirit.
Unfortunately, they were now in the wild and there was no place for her to look up information about this continent.
Gu Zhi closed his mouth unwillingly.
"So, should we continue moving forward? If there's really a flaming lion lurking ahead, and a nine-colored pot snake lurking nearby..."
Huiyao, the oldest member of the group, looked at them with concern.
This is her last chance to take the promotion assessment.
If she fails to pass the test this year, she will have no choice but to leave the Beast Taming Sect and return home to accept the marriage arranged by the family, and be trapped in the backyard for the rest of her life, taking care of her husband and children.
Or you could be a nominal disciple for your entire life, and never have the chance to explore the higher and further paths of beast taming practice.
Either way, it wasn't what she wanted.
However, their group, whether in terms of overall strength or individual combat power, could not fight against high-level spiritual beasts such as the Flame Lion and the Nine-Colored Pot Snake.
She even thought of the worst possible outcome in her heart.
"...No matter how the assessment goes, it's not as important as our lives."
Hui Yao pursed her lips, her expression wavering, but she quickly regained her composure. "Even if it doesn't work out this year, you're still young and can wait five years. If you're lucky, there might be an additional test in three years!"
