How could someone as well-behaved as Sister Yue possibly be a playboy?

Ye Yueyue looked up and met Feng Zhong's gaze. Her eyes lingered on his handsome, expressionless face for a few seconds before casually looking away.

By the way, this Senior Brother Feng is quite handsome, and his voice is nice too. How come she only noticed it now?

Ye Yueyue had been focused on clearing the level since she entered, and hadn't paid much attention to anything else.

After all, in her heart, a man was far less important than her future prospects.

Senior Brother Feng is from Fu Feng, the same place as Qing Bao.

What she didn't know was that Feng Zhong was one of the decent senior brothers Jian Youqing knew. If Ye Yueyue hadn't let go of her back then, Jian Youqing would most likely have introduced her to a senior brother.

Getting back to the main point, although she knew her plan was perfect, others didn't. She hadn't said a single word about the details, so why did Feng Zhong trust her so much?

Feng Zhong's decisive attitude surprised Ye Yueyue, but she didn't dwell on it for long. Her mind was filled with thoughts, and only a few breaths had passed in reality.

Ye Yueyue snapped out of her daze, her eyes crinkling into a smile, and said with absolute certainty, "Of course we need Senior Brother Feng! You're the main force in my plan!"

The trust in the girl's eyes was tangible. Feng Zhong paused, nodded almost imperceptibly, but couldn't help but smile slightly.

Seeing this, the others readily agreed. There was no reason to disagree; they were all working towards the same goal, and having someone offer advice was always faster than killing them one by one.

The plan was approved unanimously, and Ye Yueyue began to explain it in detail.

"The plan is like this... like this."

The girl spoke softly and slowly, her eyes seemingly sparkling with countless stars.

After hearing Ye Yueyue's plan, everyone's eyes lit up with joy, and they completely put aside any other thoughts and stopped worrying about whether it would pass.

Instead, they began to boldly wonder if they might be the first to pass through the second level.

Ye Yueyue glanced at the forest entrance and smiled as she said to Lu Xing, "Senior Brother Lu, thank you for your cooperation."

Lu Xing nodded and, unusually, said, "Okay."

"Senior Brother Du, is this alright?" Ye Yueyue turned to look at Du Guang again.

"Of course, no problem, Junior Sister Yue, you can rest assured to leave this to me!" Du Guang patted his chest, looking confident.

Seeing that everyone else nodded in agreement, Ye Yueyue thought for a moment and turned her gaze to Fang Zhiming, "Then the most difficult task will be assigned to Senior Brother Fang?"

“Okay, go ahead.” Fang Zhiming nodded without hesitation.

This resolute attitude is completely different from before.

It's not surprising that Fang Zhiming was hesitant. After learning that there were only a few of them in this challenge, as the one with the highest cultivation level among them, he subconsciously placed himself in a position where everyone could rely on him.

Therefore, he will not take risks unless he is 100% certain, as it is his duty as a senior to protect everyone's safety.

Knowing the cause of the beast tide, he was originally only 70-80% sure, but Ye Yueyue's plan undoubtedly turned that confidence into 100%.

Now that we can safely pass through customs, what reason is there to refuse?

"it is good!"

……

In that relatively open area, a man in black walked straight towards the lake without stopping. He glanced at the strange tree standing by the lake, its petals falling continuously.

Suddenly, a gentle breeze swept by, stirring up some white petals from the ground.

A faint fragrance wafted through the air.

Fang Zhiming immediately held his breath, but inevitably inhaled a few. Whether it was his imagination or the effect, he suddenly felt tired. He mentally prepared himself and took a step forward.

Let the petals wash over you.

A few breaths later, he left the tree. A familiar drowsiness washed over him. He frowned and fought off the sleepiness, waiting quietly in place for a while.

Feeling the familiar tremor, Fang Zhiming turned to look at another entrance to the forest, where many monsters poured out, quickly forming a dense herd.

All the monsters had crimson eyes and ferocious faces; the beast tide was heading towards him.

He only set off after calculating the distance between the two.

coming!

With a sudden impulse, Fang Zhiming swiftly headed back the way he came.

Feeling a wave of drowsiness wash over him, he gritted his teeth and, resisting the urge, pinched himself. The pain instantly brought him back to his senses.

Almost there, just hang in there a little longer.

Junior Sister Yue and the others are still waiting for him. As their senior brother, he can't let them down...

With this thought in mind, Fang Zhiming finally saw the familiar entrance after an unknown amount of time. He stepped inside and then collapsed to the ground, unable to control himself any longer.

"Senior Brother Du, hurry!" Ye Yueyue immediately called for everyone to set off.

"Don't worry, I definitely won't let Senior Brother Fang's efforts go to waste!" Du Guang said with certainty. He circulated his spiritual energy, and a wisp of light green spiritual energy instantly transformed into vines. The vines nimbly lifted Fang Zhiming up and placed him on the platform that had been temporarily built by the big tree.

Ye Yueyue and the others were all on this platform at this moment.

Beneath the tree lay the inescapable net they had prepared together for the beast tide.

"Brother Fang, wake up! It's time to go to work!" Ye Yueyue heard the tremors caused by the beast tide outside, and a hint of excitement flashed in her eyes as she eagerly called out to the unconscious Fang Zhiming.

"Junior Sister Yue, what does 'going to work' mean?" Du Guang scratched his head, asking in confusion, his eyes filled with clear stupidity.

Ye Yueyue glanced at it and said, "It's a metaphor for things you have to do every day, so routine that it makes you feel sick."

"Oh, okay," he responded thoughtfully.

"Isn't that just cultivation? And there are even lectures?"

After finishing speaking, Du Guang also called out. Afraid that he wouldn't be able to wake the other person, he went up and pushed Fang Zhiming, "Senior Brother Fang, wake up, we should go to work."

Fang Zhiming woke up quickly.

Isn't there a beast tide? What's going to work then?

He stared blankly at the two of them, his mind still reeling from before he lost consciousness. He hadn't yet grasped the meaning of their words and was about to ask when the beast tide arrived.

A large number of demonic beasts surged into the entrance, with over a hundred entering in an instant, far more than the previous two times, and the number was still increasing.

"They're here! Senior brothers, give it your all!" As the demonic beast drew closer, Ye Yueyue finally couldn't help but shout.

Her eyes gleamed with barely suppressed excitement, and the moment she finished speaking, the others snapped to attention and responded in unison.

Just as the horde of beasts was about to reach the tree beneath them, the perfectly flat ground suddenly caved in, and countless monsters fell into the enormous pit.

The monster vanished into nothingness the moment it fell, and after its corpse disappeared, countless sharp wooden spikes could be vaguely seen standing upright in the deep pit.

After the corpses below turned to nothingness, the monsters above also fell down, disappearing one after another.
