Chapter 224

Qin Yu's eyes lit up directly—who would have thought there was still such a good thing?

「Are all the people in the Wen Department idiots? Even the ferocious beasts in the trial grounds have rioted! 」

「Brother Yu, you go first; we'll hold the rear! 」

When Chen Zhaohao saw clearly, a black mass of ferocious beasts surged like a tide, rolling toward them.

Everyone's faces darkened like water, their qi and blood erupting outright, like war gods, they walked straight up to Qin Yu.

Anyone could encounter trouble, but…… Qin Yu absolutely must not come to harm.

He is the mainstay of the entire Class Five.

He is also the future Martial Saint of Great Xia.

If he dies here, countless people's efforts will be wasted.

But…… upon looking behind, there was not the slightest movement, and even a pair of big hands directly shoved everyone aside.

「Leave? 」

「These are all points. 」

「You're telling me to leave? 」

Qin Yu no longer wants to continue the exam; too much time has been wasted, and now we can settle it in one go—how could we possibly leave?

Chen Zhaohao and the others felt their hairs stand on end; big brother…… are you serious?

But they had slaughtered dozens of ferocious beasts earlier, so they still had a chance.

However, they needed to prepare for casualties.

「How can one be tempered without blood and fire? 」

The students of Senior Three Class Five also gradually steadied their hearts; after all…… Qin Yu isn't retreating, so how could they possibly retreat!?

At the very least, they wanted to die in front of Qin Yu.

They could not let his millions of resources go to waste.

At that moment, a human silhouette seemed to appear before them, moving extremely fast, flashing a few times among the ancient trees, appearing before Qin Yu and the others, continually sprinting.

「Holy shit? You're still setting up formations? Are you crazy? 」

「This is a beast tide! 」

Chen Xi saw this scene and was dumbfounded, especially seeing his own distant cousin still following Qin Yu with a resolute expression.

He had just broken through to third-rank martial artist, preparing to go on a killing spree, but then he encountered the beast tide; before it could fully form, he fled swiftly, narrowly avoiding death.

But now…… this group of first- and second-rank martial artists actually formed a formation, intending to resist the beast tide?

What the hell, if this isn't madness, what is?

Even if Qin Yu's strength can overcome fifth-rank martial artists, but…… there are literally thousands of ferocious beasts here; even a sixth-rank Golden Body expert couldn't stop them!

This is a suicide mission.

However, Qin Yu is now famous far and wide; he cannot simply let him die here.

Because of Chen Zhaohao, the Chen family has just connected with Nanshan Medical Clinic, obtaining a large batch of qi and blood pills.

They also signed a strategic agreement, making the two parties effectively allies.

According to Nanshan Medical Clinic's future plans, as long as the Chen family follows, the future grand masters…… will at least number in the dozens.

By then, they will truly be a colossal clan.

Those so-called great families of Magic City will all be trampled underfoot.

But…… if Qin Yu dies before my eyes and I do nothing, my father will surely have me killed.

I'll be hung up and beaten 100%!

Upon this thought, Chen Xi felt a chill, stopped fleeing, and wanted to pull Qin Yu away.

But then he discovered…… Qin Yu's arm seemed to have surging qi and blood, directly suppressing him.

He widened his eyes in shock, wondering…… why he couldn't move at all?

Even, a tremor from the soul.

Want to submit to Qin Yu?

We're all third-rank martial artists; how can the gap be so huge?

Qin Yu lightly raised his hand, lowering his: 「Classmate Chen Xi, you're overthinking; this beast tide is just points, right? 」

His calm tone stirred up a storm in Chen Xi's heart.

A genius of this caliber is certainly no fool; he would never attempt a mantis trying to stop a chariot.

So…… that means he really intends to act?

Relying on just these few dozen people?

To resist the beast tide?

But…… Qin Yu's strength seems to be at that level.

After a moment's thought, he spoke: 「May I join? Fight together? 」

「I don't want beast corpses or essence blood; I just need points—all the beasts I kill will be yours. 」

Deep down…… he felt a fervor; if he could snag some points, who knows…… he might even break into the national top thirty!

Even if they killed just a few, split among fifty people, it would be more than enough.

Moreover, forming this friendship with Qin Yu is crucial.

In a dangerous moment, if he acts, he might even get to cling to Qin Yu's thigh.

Even if Qin Yu exists as one who can overcome fifth-rank fighters, facing thousands of ferocious beasts he would still reveal a flaw.

With this thought, Chen Xi made up his mind.

Chen Zhaohao warily eyed his cousin, 「Holy shit…… this isn't coming to steal big brother, is it? 」

You, the esteemed heir of the Western River Chen clan, how can you still regard Qin Yu as your big brother?

That doesn't match your status!

Now Father Yu is truly a golden thigh; even if offered his own heir position, he wouldn't trade it.

In just a few days, he broke through to second rank, surpassing years of his own bitter cultivation.

Moreover, a couple of days ago, a casual explanation actually let him nearly grasp the Dao, giving him a completely new understanding of martial cultivation.

So… when speaking of Qin Yu within the clan, he only ever mentioned superficial things he knew.

He dared not reveal even a hint.

Lest he invite envy from his peers.

Chen Zihao calculated that, by following Father Yu, at most three years to break through to fourth rank, absolutely no problem.

This was once unthinkable.

Boom—!

The beast tide draws nearer, sky‑filled smoke and dust, accompanied by thunderous roars, countless towering ancient trees snapping.

At this moment…… at the exit of the Trial Ground, most of the exam students have already arrived, a sea of people, terrified beyond measure.

Their expressions were grim to the extreme.

They were about to burst into tears.

Qian Bu, you must decide for us—this round's scores definitely can't count; we haven't even started fighting when the beast tide erupted, this isn't a trial at all, it's a death sentence!

Exactly, we'd just finished our alliance agreement, gathered our forces, and were ready to strike—then the beast tide hit, and we didn't score a single point!

Several second‑rank martial artist students now spoke up, having just settled the distribution of profits.

So you're telling me it's over?

Then damn it, our ranking isn't last place, is it?

Even some unranked students, joining forces, managed to slay a few beasts and earn a few points.

Qian Bu's face darkened.

There's never been any talk of canceling the major exam.

As long as there are beasts in this Trial Ground, it's still within the scope of the exam.

But under special circumstances, we can employ special measures, extending the time by one hour.

Furthermore, use the Heavenly Eye to check the situation inside and see how many students haven't withdrawn.

Qian Bu handled things in an orderly manner, soothing emotions while beginning to investigate the beast riot and the temporary withdrawal of students to the exit.

Just then, a nearby staffer turned pale and hurried over: "Qian Bu, some students haven't withdrawn; they're still in that forest, trying to resist the beast tide with dozens of people!"

Qian Bu blinked in surprise—still, this kind of fool?

Open the projection and see who's so unafraid of death.

Contact them at once and get them to withdraw from the Trial Ground—this is no child's play!

Only a Grand Master can escape unscathed from a beast tide of this level!

Of course, if they really want to die, just leave them be! Such overconfident students will become a hazard in the underground cavern later, their understanding unclear, only dragging down teammates.

He shouted angrily, his expression grim.

Immediately, the staffer opened the projection, and countless students also turned to look, curious as to what fool would be so unafraid of death.
