Behind Tianhun Academy, on the other side of the tall and stretching back mountain, is an extremely vast mountain forest, in which there are many soul beasts that can be regarded as 'captive'. The main function of this forest is to give Tianhun Students in the academy are provided with a place of trial.
Therefore, this forest was also called the "Trial Forest".
This trial forest is an extremely mysterious place in the hearts of many students of Tianhun Academy, because only those who have reached the fifth grade, that is, the strength of the Soul Sect, are qualified to enter the trial inside, so in the circle of lower-grade students, There are countless 'legends' circulating about the Trial Forest, and many people both yearn for it and fear it.
Even if you reach the fifth grade, you can't enter casually. You can only "adventure" within a certain area under the guidance of a mentor within a specified time, through surviving in the wild in the mountains and forests, and with souls of a certain strength. Fight with beasts to train students.
Generally speaking, students are not likely to encounter dangers of life and death when testing in this forest of trials, but this is not absolute. For thousands of years, students have experienced unforeseen and unexpected situations when testing in this forest. Not too many.
…
"Hiss!!!"
A snake neighed in the dense forest. The snake's cry should have been subtle and low, but this time it was sharp and piercing, and it could be heard for a thousand meters.
Here is a small lake in the forest. A small lake about 200 meters long is surrounded by dense towering trees. It should be a rare and quiet place, but at this moment, it is extremely unstable. The water The waves were surging, the blue light was flashing, and the sound of "bang bang" kept coming. It was obvious that an extremely fierce battle was going on.
Passing through the dense woods and reaching the sky above the small lake, looking down at this area, I saw a giant blue snake that was a hundred meters long and as thick as a water tank. It was rolling and stirring in the middle of the lake, stirring up pieces of water like walls. The neighing sound just now came from its mouth.
The peak of the late fifth level, the twin-tailed anaconda! !
And around this huge anaconda, there are five figures at the moment, jumping up and down like butterflies and insects. These people are all water soul masters, two men and three women, all about twenty years old. And they were all in the middle stage of the Soul Sect. They stood on the lake as if they were stepping on the ground, surrounded by water energy, fighting with the anaconda.
"Xiaoyun, be careful to avoid the attack of the anaconda's tail! Zhao Yu, you and Cui Ming restrain the anaconda's sight together! Xiaolan and Xiaocui restrain its movements!"
A pleasant voice sounded from the shore, instructing the five people who were fighting the anaconda on the lake. A closer look revealed that it was a mature woman with beautiful appearance, about thirty years old.
She was only standing on the shore at the moment and did not participate in the battle. She was just giving guidance through words. There was even a faint smile on her lips. Apparently she did not look worried at all. On her shoulder, there was a squatting The blue squirrel-like animal had its fluffy tail on her shoulders, swaying from side to side. Its eyes were very smart, and it looked eager to try as it watched the battle on the lake.
…
This group of people is exactly a trial team of Tianhun Academy.
And it was obvious that they were a group of fifth-year water system students, and the woman on the shore was the instructor who led the trial.
Under her guidance, the five students who cooperated fairly well fought back and forth with this soul beast that was much more powerful than them, and it looked like... they actually had the upper hand!
…
After the battle lasted for about half an hour, the twin-tailed anaconda whined and finally fell down unwillingly. The huge snake head hit the shore with a bang and stopped moving. However, it was not killed. But he was just knocked unconscious.
Seeing that the anaconda was defeated, the woman showed a satisfied smile and said with a smile: "Haha, very good, everyone come back."
The five students returned to the shore. Although their faces were a little tired, they were all full of excitement.
"Well, everyone has done a good job. You have all grown tremendously in this trial. From the beginning when you were all in a hurry when facing soul beasts of the same level, to now you can work together to defeat soul beasts that are stronger than you. It's very impressive. good… "
The woman praised and encouraged her students without hesitation, and then continued to smile: "However, there are still some mistakes in the process. The use of some basic soul skills is still not grasped at the best time, which makes the battle more time-consuming. He lost time and soul power. Xiaoyun, when the snake's tail came from the left, you should..."
After that, the woman summarized the previous battle and explained some shortcomings. Several students listened attentively and nodded from time to time.
After about a few minutes, the woman clapped her hands and said with a smile: "Well, okay, this trial is basically over. Everyone has been here for a long time. You can go back to the academy today."
Just as she was about to turn around and leave with a few students, the blue squirrel-like soul beast on the woman's shoulder suddenly twitched its ears, stood up directly on her shoulder, and screamed excitedly!
At the same time, everyone felt the ground beneath their feet suddenly shake!
"Boom!!"
There was a loud noise, earth and rocks splashed, and everyone was shocked to find that a hole suddenly opened in the ground on the shore twenty meters away, and a sharp claw like a drill suddenly stretched out, and with a 'Puff' sound, it pierced the unconscious man. Among the heads of the two-tailed anaconda there! The next moment, he pulled out the anaconda's soul crystal!
This double-tailed anaconda died directly in a coma!
Then, the ground in that area rolled up, and from the crack, a strange spirit beast that was three times the size of a buffalo emerged from the ground—it looked like an oversized lobster! !
"No! It's the Earth Hidden Giant Shrimp! This is... late level six!! Everyone, get out of here!"
The woman's expression changed, and she didn't have time to think too much. There was a flash of blue light all over her body, and a breath of mid-stage Soul Master burst out. At the same time, the blue squirrel on her shoulder also jumped forward, and her body became ten times larger, with hair all over her body. Standing upright, lying on the ground and neighing lowly, it exuded the aura of a mid-level sixth-level soul beast.
The five students were stunned for a moment, and then suddenly came to their senses at the woman's reminder. They all ran back in panic. The woman stared solemnly at the giant shrimp in front of her, waving two huge pliers but not moving. Dare to relax even a little bit.
The Earth Hidden Giant Shrimp is an earth-type soul beast that is good at hiding, and it is also a more ferocious soul beast!
This trial forest is actually divided into several layers of areas just like the soul beast forest. This area is where fifth-level soul beasts gather. Level six soul beasts should be extremely rare. I didn't expect to encounter them today. Moreover, it is also a powerful soul beast at the late sixth level.
"ah!!"
"Xiaoyun!!"
Just as the woman was paying careful attention to the soul beast in front of her, several exclamations suddenly came from behind her. Her expression changed drastically, and she turned around suddenly, only to find that the five students who had already retreated dozens of meters away were actually at this moment. Their way was blocked, and what blocked them was another Tsuchigakure giant shrimp!
There are actually two! !
And at this moment, the giant shrimp's right pincer was raised high and slapped hard at a girl who fell in front of him!
Everyone else around was forced back more than ten meters by the wave of earth and stone attacks when the spirit beast appeared. Only this girl couldn't dodge and fell down. At this moment, the woman was too far away and had no time to take action. Help!
"Chirp!!!"
At this critical moment, a clear whistle suddenly sounded in the air, and then a giant bird surrounded by purple light fell from the sky like a meteor. With a soft "clang" sound, the sharp claws grabbed it and almost smashed it. He reached the giant pincer above the girl's head, then flapped his wings and raised his body. With a "bang" sound, the back half of the Earth Hidden Giant Shrimp's body that was still buried in the soil was pulled out, and then caught by the giant bird. With... flying into the air! !
A giant bird grabbed an even bigger 'lobster' and flew directly up to a hundred meters in the air. Then it spun around and loosened its claws. The giant shrimp turned into a meteor and was thrown into the forest. deep…
"Roar!!"
Almost at the same time that the giant bird appeared, a roar like a dragon's roar sounded at the same time, followed by a loud bang, the ground shook, and a huge mountain-like figure fell from the sky and 'smashed' on the top of the mountain. On the body of the Earth Hidden giant shrimp that appeared first!
The woman who originally turned her head because the student was attacked was horrified. She turned around subconsciously and saw a terrifying dark blue spirit beast pulling the earth hidden giant shrimp out of the ground, and then its ferocious bloody mouth. With one snap, half of the giant shrimp's head was bitten off with a 'puff' sound!
Everyone stayed where they were, watching the late-level six earth hidden giant shrimp being eaten by the huge soul beast that suddenly appeared in three bites...
