Shocking! A haughty and arrogant older sister was relentlessly pinned against a wall by a cold and a

The pain drove the sand sculpture into a frenzy; it frantically shook its neck, trying to break free of its restraints.

The three people pulling on the rope were in great pain, but they gritted their teeth and endured it.

Although the sand eagles flew low, they were extremely fast, and their brute force made them completely unable to withstand the attack.

Less than a minute later, Wu Xu stumbled and rolled into the sand pile, falling and getting dizzy, losing 2 points.

Song Yifei was weak and her feet were dangling in the air as the sand sculpture pulled her, causing her to sway and stagger like a kite.

Even so, she still clung tightly to the rope, partly because falling would definitely result in a deduction of points, and partly to make it easier to grab the spotlight.

As for Zhong Zheyi, his lower body was buried in the sand, while his upper body remained motionless, clinging tightly to the sand sculpture. Veins bulged on his forehead, and he was drenched in sweat.

He glanced to the side, a surge of anger rising in his head. "Where are Hao Jian and Cheng Baoni? Why are they nowhere to be seen?"

Song Yifei struggled to steady herself and replied breathlessly, "I don't know, probably hiding in some corner to slack off again."

She paused for a moment, her tone tinged with resentment, "They're such scoundrels. If they didn't want to help, they could have said so beforehand. There was no need for them to play tricks and catch us all off guard."

Cheng Ai also realized the seriousness of the situation. If the five of them worked together to suppress the sand sculpture, they might be able to hold out for a while, but now there were only three of them, and they were simply no match for it.

With her left hand, she grabbed at the air, summoning a talisman, and with a sudden flick, it transformed into a giant net that covered the sand sculpture. Then, she made a fist-clenching motion.

The sand sculpture was still struggling with the rope. Sensing the impending danger, it instinctively tried to escape, but it was too late.

The giant net accurately enveloped the enormous body, gradually shrinking until it completely restricted its movement.

Cheng Ai then made a downward pressing gesture, and the sand sculpture fell to the ground with a thud, creating a deep crater.

Then, she leaped up, knelt on one knee on its back, pulled out the jade hairpin with her right hand, and plunged it fiercely into its pupil.

“Ga ga ga…ga ga ga…”

The sand sculpture trembled violently, emitting mournful cries, before finally drooping its head helplessly and remaining motionless.

<Ding! Congratulations to Cheng Ai, Zhong Zheyi, Song Yifei, and Wu Xu for passing the endurance test! Each of you is awarded 30 points!>

<Lunch break is over. Please enjoy your meal and arrive at the 304 entrance before 2 PM.>

As soon as the announcement ended, the sand sculpture vanished abruptly. Cheng Ai quickly grabbed the jade hairpin and jumped out of the pit.

At the same time, a thick fog swept in, covering the sky.

Their vision gradually blurred, and everything around them was a white blur. When their vision cleared, they found themselves in room 509.

Cheng Ai raised her hand and slowly touched the wall connected to 508. Sure enough, her hand passed right through it without any hindrance.

It seems that, just like in the basement, everyone was actually running around randomly between 501 and 509 while running wildly in the desert.

Those things are quite capable; they can even make the walls appear hollow.

Wu Xu gasped for breath, looking relieved to have survived a close call.

Song Yifei's cheeks were flushed, and her eyes were filled with excited tears. "Wow~ My points are finally positive again~ Haha~"

Zhong Zheyi's face was grim. He grabbed Hao Jian, who was slumped on the ground, and scolded him in a low voice, "If you don't want to record the variety show, then get out! Don't fucking disappear on purpose and mess with your teammates' mentality!"

Hao Jian looked dazed and confused.

His ears were full of sand; he could only hear Zhong Zheyi speaking, but he couldn't hear a single word of what he was saying.

She tilted her head, spat out the sand with two "pui" sounds, patted her chest, which felt stuffy, and weakly curved her lips, "Thirsty...so thirsty...I want to drink water..."

Zhong Zheyi cursed "idiot" in his heart, then let go of the person and threw him aside, intending not to waste any more words on the brainless idiot.

"Ouch!" Hao Jian gasped in pain, tilting his head back and yelling, "Are you out of your mind? Not giving me water is one thing, but why did you push me?"

Cheng Baoni had lost the scarf that had been covering her head. Shaking her dizzy head, she stumbled and crawled toward Hao Jian, helping him clean the sand stuck to his face. "Thank goodness, A-Jian, we're still alive! That was close! The sand almost buried me alive!"

Five or six minutes ago, she was still immersed in the fantasy of Cheng Ai being abused and couldn't pull herself out.

Suddenly, a large amount of sand rushed into my throat. Although I abandoned the straw in time, I still choked and coughed incessantly.

Without oxygen, Cheng Baoni was like a dying fish, in unbearable pain.

Thinking that Hao Jian's situation might be even worse, she tried to climb higher, but her consciousness grew weaker and weaker, and her eyelids became heavier and heavier.

Thankfully he was safe and sound, otherwise she would have followed him without hesitation.

"What did you say?" Hao Jian picked at his ear, scratched his hair in frustration, and said impatiently, "I'm thirsty, I want water!"

"Don't worry! I'll go get it right now!" Cheng Baoni said, immediately getting up and running outside.

Watching Hao Jian sit there elegantly like a crown prince waiting for water, Cheng Ai took a deep breath, silently chanted "Just two more days," and turned to leave the room.

Zhong Zheyi and Song Yifei exchanged a glance and together helped Wu Xu up the spiral staircase.

When the four of them were standing in the sixth-floor corridor, Cheng Ai rushed into the restaurant without hesitation.

What's more important than a delicious meal than something as trivial as taking a bath?

The total cost of redeeming a roast duck leg, pizza, and cola was 15 points. Just as he put on disposable plastic gloves, Cheng Baoni stretched out her dirty hands in front of him, "A-Jian is thirsty, let me use your smart bracelet."

Cheng Ai ignored him and frantically gnawed on the duck leg, completely disregarding the other person's slowly clenching fist.

She threw the bone into the trash can, picked up the pizza and continued eating, without even lifting her eyelids once.

Just as Cheng Baoni was about to punch Cheng Ai, Zhong Zheyi, who had just finished showering, happened to appear at the door. She immediately rushed over and snatched his bracelet.

At the same time, Cheng Ai noticed that the parchment paper at the bottom of the plate seemed to be bulging. She swallowed the pizza in her hand, lifted the paper, and a card came into view: [Ai Ai, I'm waiting for you in Gong Qian's work shed.]

Just one sentence made Cheng Ai's heart race.

She picked up her cola and gulped down a few mouthfuls before rushing out of the restaurant, nearly knocking over Song Yifei who was coming towards her.

"Sister Xiao Ai, where are you rushing off to? Aren't you going to eat?"

Unable to get a reply, Song Yifei gently raised her eyes in confusion, only to find that Cheng Ai had already disappeared.

She frowned, her heart filled with disdain.

Ha, it's just that he was lucky enough to sign with Shengding International, what's so great about that?

Once I'm made famous by Night Emperor, let's see how cocky you are then.

Just as she was secretly grumbling to herself, a figure suddenly flashed in her peripheral vision. By the time she came to her senses, the bracelet on her wrist had already changed hands.

"What are you doing? Give it back to me!" Song Yifei's expression changed drastically, and without thinking, she lunged at Cheng Baoni.

The two women instantly became entangled in a fierce struggle, tearing and pulling at each other, unable to break apart.

On the other side, Cheng Ai ran wildly through the forest path and finally stopped outside the work shed.
