Chapter 123 The Cave
Chapter 123 The Cave
The elite students spectating at Liangzhou University Training Ground No. 1 couldn't help but exclaim in shock when they saw Xiang Beifei suddenly being attacked by so many black monkeys!
Ye Changfeng's expression changed slightly!
"A troop of mid-stage Qi-Controlling Claw-tailed Monkeys! Yuchi Shen, what are you up to!" Ye Changfeng stared at Yuchi Shen, seated not far from him, and shouted.
Claw-tailed Monkeys of this strength, even in groups, would be nothing but a one-sword kill in his eyes, but the problem was that Xiang Beifei was only a mid-stage Qi-Controlling practitioner. The fact that he had managed to kill a Claw-tailed Monkey so quickly earlier had already surprised him.
However, Claw-tailed Monkeys are social animals. If one is killed, the others become enraged and seek revenge on the target.
Yuchi Shen's face also darkened slightly.
He had chosen the training ground carefully; the swamp was the lair of the Three Souls Desolate Snake.
But he hadn't told Xiang Beifei any of this, providing no information to him and letting him find his own way. It just so happened that the Three Souls Desolate Snake had left its nest, and Xiang Beifei had followed, only to run into a troop of passing Claw-tailed Monkeys!
Anything could happen out there in the wilderness outside the domain. Even he couldn't guarantee that the swamp was the exclusive territory of the Three Souls Desolate Snake; sometimes other desolate beasts would pass through another's domain.
Desolate beasts are fierce, and they naturally harbor hostility towards humans. As soon as they see a human, they will definitely attack.
"If he can't hold on, he'll naturally come back," Yuchi Shen said coldly.
However, his heart was a bit unsettled.
Because Xiang Beifei had been chased by the horde of monkeys and had strayed from the Three Souls Desolate Snake's lair, entering other areas of the wilderness outside the domain!
Though he wanted to see Xiang Beifei tormented, he absolutely couldn't watch him die. Otherwise, not even Ye Changfeng, but the school's leadership wouldn't let him off the hook.
If the news that an N-level student was thrown into the wilderness outside the domain during the entrance examination of Liangzhou University and lost their life got out, it would cause a much bigger stir than the article written by Yu Lei!
When Yu Lei wrote the article, public opinion in Jiuzhou was against the nine elite universities, with the other eight universities being attacked even more. Liangzhou University at least gave N-level students a chance and was less criticized.
But if an N-level student died during the entrance examination trial in the wilderness outside the domain, Liangzhou University would likely be drowned in criticism.
"This fool, couldn't he just beat it and hurry back?"
Yuchi Shen looked at Xiang Beifei in the training ground and cursed inwardly.

Xiang Beifei was running as fast as he could, but this was a jungle, and the monkeys were even faster. Soon, the Claw-tailed Monkeys jumped ahead of him through the trees, screeching by his side, and long tails like tentacles reached out to grab him from all around.
Seizing the right moment, the fist flame in his hand surged violently and slammed into the nearest Claw-tailed Monkey. The violent gust generated by his punch was extremely fierce, and it smashed into the monkey's head!
Bang!
Xiang Beifei blew the Claw-tailed Monkey's head apart, scattering its brains.

He had trained Rapid Flame to an extremely tyrannical level. Facing a mid-stage Qi-Controlling Claw-tailed Monkey head-on was not a challenge for him, but after he had killed another Claw-tailed Monkey, he further enraged the others.
The monkeys howled in furious rage and charged at him from all directions.
At this moment, he burst out of the jungle and suddenly the landscape opened up before him. There was a small hill in front covered with jagged rocks and various weeds. In the midst of the rocky hillside, there was a cave that seemed just large enough to allow a person to crawl inside. He hesitated for a moment, then immediately ran toward the cave.
With the protection of tree branches, these Claw-tailed Monkeys were incredibly agile, accustomed to guerrilla tactics, retreating after a missed attack. Perhaps by taking advantage of the cave, he could hold his ground at the entrance, allowing for a frontal confrontation.
Without the tree branches for cover, the monkeys' combat abilities would be reduced by a notch, and he could resolve each monkey with a single punch.
However, as he approached the cave, he suddenly realized that this was the wilderness, filled with desolate beasts, and it was highly unlikely that the cave was a safe place – it could very well be a desolate beast's lair!
No sooner had this thought occurred to him than his keen instincts made him abruptly stop and dart to the side.
Almost in the instant, he dodged, a sharp hissing noise came from the cave followed by a tongue as thick as a water bucket lashing out violently, extending about ten meters long and instantly wrapping around one of the black monkeys that had been chasing Xiang Beifei. Then, with a "slurp" sound, the monkey was dragged back into the cave!
Aoow—
The cave echoed with the screams of the Claw-tailed Monkey and the crunching sounds of bones being chewed, cracking noise resounding.
"What the heck is that!"
Xiang Beifei was inwardly shocked, the sound was full of crunching, but he definitely did not want to provoke it.
However, at that moment, another hissing noise came from the cave, and this time, the massive tongue rolled out again, even faster, targeting him!
This time, Xiang Beifei couldn't dodge quickly enough, and he was immediately caught by the sticky tongue which sent him flying back toward the cave!
Darkness enveloped him in an instant, the wind howled around him, accompanied by a strong scent of blood and the stench of decay, exceptionally pungent.
He struggled with all his might, his hands shining with flames as Rapid Flame roared, striking the tongue!
Hum!
The powerful flame of Rapid Flame, swirling with a burst of violent gusts, charred the ghastly thing's tongue. It seemed to have not anticipated Xiang Beifei's punch, and the tongue loosened slightly, as if it feared the flames.
