“Why?” Su Jinyue asked.
Ye Wushuang couldn’t help but say, “Didn’t I just tell you…”
“The left side is the territory of the Flame-Swallowing Tiger, and the right side belongs to the Azure-Scaled Beast. These two big guys—well, there might be more than just two—are third-class mid-level spiritual beasts, with strengths ranging from the fourth to sixth tier of the Tian Gang realm…”
“These disciples from Spirit Sword Mountain are making such a commotion while hunting the Unicorn Colt here. How could they not attract attention from both sides?”
Su Jinyue’s expression changed as well.
Indeed, that made sense!
“It probably won’t happen…” Su Jinyue said slowly, “The Unicorn Colt dares to be active here…”
Ye Wushuang was speechless and replied, “The Unicorn Colt is itself a third-class spiritual beast. Although it’s not very strong in combat, it’s incredibly fast…”
Su Jinyue wanted to find some more reasons to argue.
But at that very moment, a chilling gust of wind howled out.
From the forest on the left side of the valley, an intimidating aura suddenly burst forth, causing one’s heart to race with fear.
Immediately afterward, an intense heat seemed to ignite the entire forest.
A gigantic spiritual beast, standing nine zhang tall, stomped its massive paws on the ground, causing tremors with each step.
“Flame-Swallowing Tiger!”
The nine-zhang-tall creature resembled a tiger, with its fur a blazing red. Its breath exuded scorching heat, carrying an extremely terrifying fiery energy that turned the grass in front of it yellow.
At the same time, a flash of blue light burst from the pile of rocks on the right side.
Everyone saw the blue light stabilize, revealing a towering figure, seven or eight zhang tall, standing on a heap of boulders.
Its entire body was covered in blue scales, resembling a qilin, with a radiant and spirited appearance, and its eyes emitted a blue glow.
Azure-Scaled Beast!
The two formidable spiritual beasts, one on the left and one on the right, had truly appeared.
Su Jinyue’s face turned pale.
Now, Shui Wanrong and Zhu Yushu were in deep trouble!
Su Jinyue clenched her black dagger tightly and took a step forward.
“What are you doing?” Ye Wushuang grabbed Su Jinyue’s arm.
The trial had only been going on for half a month. Even many geniuses at the peak of the Yuanfu realm had yet to reach the Tian Gang realm. Even if someone had reached the Tian Gang realm, they would only be at the first or second tier.
But the two spiritual beasts before them were third-class mid-level beasts. Engaging them in combat… even those who had broken through to the Tian Gang realm would die.
Not to mention Su Jinyue!
“Shui Wanrong and I have a very good relationship in Spirit Sword Mountain. I can’t just stand by and watch her die!” Su Jinyue insisted.
“Would you not die if you recklessly charge in?” Ye Wushuang whispered harshly, “You’d just be adding to the meal for those two beasts!”
“But…” Su Jinyue’s face turned even more pale.
She couldn’t bear to watch her friend be killed.
“Ye Wushuang, you must have a way, right?” Su Jinyue immediately said, “Help me!”
“If you help me, I’ll tell you the relationship between the Spirit Sword Pavilion and Spirit Sword Mountain. How about that?”
Hearing this, Ye Wushuang looked at Su Jinyue.
“Remember what you said.”
“Okay!”
Then, Ye Wushuang looked ahead and said, “For now, let’s stay put. I can’t guarantee that I can save all of those twenty or so people.”
“Alright.”
At this moment, Shui Wanrong and Zhu Yushu from Spirit Sword Mountain also saw the arrival of the Flame-Swallowing Tiger and the Azure-Scaled Beast.
“Senior Brother Zhu, it’s the Flame-Swallowing Tiger and the Azure-Scaled Beast!” a young man’s face turned pale with terror as he exclaimed.
“Damn it!”
Zhu Yushu, at this moment, was holding a long spear.
The Unicorn Colt inside the valley was almost at its limit.
A third-class low-level spiritual beast, worth two thousand spiritual points, was almost within their grasp.
But now, two third-class mid-level spiritual beasts had suddenly appeared on either side.
Both of these were formidable creatures, with the weakest being at the fourth tier of the Tian Gang realm.
Everyone was now trapped inside the valley, and to escape, they would have to pass through the valley entrance.
But the Flame-Swallowing Tiger and the Azure-Scaled Beast were standing on either side of the valley entrance, facing each other.
To run out now would be suicide!
What should they do?
Zhu Yushu was anxious inside.
“Senior Brother Zhu, think of something!” a graceful woman, her delicate brows furrowed, urged.
“I’m thinking!” Zhu Yushu snapped.
Of course he knew he had to think of something, but what could he possibly think of?
It was a dead end!
“Charge out!”
Suddenly, Zhu Yushu shouted, “Forget about the Unicorn Colt and just charge out.”
“The Flame-Swallowing Tiger and the Azure-Scaled Beast must have been attracted by the Unicorn Colt’s cries. Those two big beasts will definitely fight over the Unicorn Colt and won’t pay attention to us!”
Hearing this, Zhu Yushu raised his spear, preparing to charge out.
The more than twenty disciples of Spirit Sword Mountain looked at each other in doubt.
Now, no one cared about the injured Unicorn Colt anymore.
But was it really okay to just charge out of the valley like this?
Zhu Yushu didn’t dare to be the first to charge. He looked at a young man beside him and said, “Li Yuan, go!”
The young man named Li Yuan’s face turned pale as he stammered, “Senior Brother Zhu, I… I…”
“Would I harm you? Charge!”
With no other choice, Li Yuan took a deep breath and sprinted towards the outside of the valley.
“Quick, quick, everyone follow.”
Immediately, several figures rushed out.
Zhu Yushu, seeing the two sides of the valley, had no other choice. He gritted his teeth and charged out…
