The trainees tensed up instantly, their feet hesitant to step forward.

This was their first time encountering the Eerie Monsters of the Withered Sea Realm, and they didn't have the courage they had imagined to step forward.

Perhaps they were also afraid; fighting among these Eerie Monsters of the Withered Sea Realm, death could happen in an instant.

Many trainees gritted their teeth, looked around at the others who hadn't made a move, and slowly let out a breath.

It seems that it's not just them who are afraid; even the top-ranked powerhouses are afraid. This is the balance of their minds.

But at that moment, a figure dragging a sword rushed into the Eerie Monsters, turning into a black afterimage.

It was Jianping; he couldn't hold back any longer. There was no turning back on the path of the Sword Dao.

Once you retreat again and again, you lose the will to fight again.

A faint light flickered in Li Chen's eyes, and countless light blades began to gather behind him.

Perhaps he didn't really want to fight, but he wanted to test whether he could fight the Eerie Monsters of the Withered Sea Realm alone.

Furthermore, it was to test what kind of enhancement would occur if the King's Power extracted the black substance from the body of the Withered Sea Realm Eerie Monsters.

He knew he might not be able to accept the black substance constantly eroding him, but he was more willing to understand it all and find a solution.

Then the only option is to use one's own body to try and accept more of the dark substances.

At this moment, it wasn't just Li Chen who moved; all the top ten students stepped forward, a hint of fighting spirit flashing in their eyes.

They were not afraid of death, but they were more afraid of being mocked for their cowardice by the weak.

The battle begins immediately.

Empty~

The sound of Space-Rending was like a symphony, and the light blades exploded with a series of sounds in the air.

Li Chen's target was the giant-eyed Eerie Monsters floating in the air, because only his abilities were most effective against Eerie Monsters.

Hiss~ Hiss~

In an instant, the light blade pierced into the Eerie Monsters's body, revealing a black mist of blood that corroded the blood as it dripped at dawn.

The huge-eyed Eerie Monsters's roar was deafening, and many students were even shaken so badly that they bled from all seven orifices.

At that moment, a soft voice rang out.

"Sound Shield!!"

It was the little girl who had been staying by Ji Shao's side. Her eyes shone with golden light, and a pale golden light emanated from her palm.

It enveloped Li Chen and the large-eyed Eerie Monsters.

Her expression turned slightly pale in an instant.

Li Chen turned his head and looked over. He saw a hint of arrogance flash across the little girl's pale face, and her little mouth seemed to be saying two words.

"Come on!!"

This clash of mental forces instantly served as a wake-up call for the trainees.

Many of the trainees had already fallen after just one sonic attack. Looking at the figures battling the Eerie Monsters, they muttered, "Damn it!! We're too weak."

At this moment, Su Zhe stepped forward with a hammer, grinning.

"Haha, Chen-ge is so handsome!!"

"I can't fall behind. Even if I can't solve the big problems, I can at least handle the small ones."

He spoke loudly, as if he wanted others to hear him.

Su Zhe wasn't stupid; he knew that many students were terrified. They had never experienced such a terrifying battle, nor had they ever encountered such a horrifying Eerie Monsters.

But they're in Special Class! If they've all retreated, does that mean only the top ten students at the Canglan Academy can withstand the endless stream of Eerie Monsters?

Perhaps it's possible, but Su Zhe disagreed; he also wanted to lend them a hand!

Su Zhe gripped the hammer tightly, a sinister glint in his eyes, and stared solemnly at the Eerie Monsters that were roaring and charging towards him.

These are all Eerie Monsters that rushed over under the cover of the Withered Sea Realm.

At that moment, only they, the trainees, could stop it.

They are not weak, they are just afraid.

At that moment, a figure walked up behind Su Zhe and patted him on the shoulder.

Su Zhe turned his head and looked at the many students who should have fallen down, but who were now standing up.

"You're already showing off even though you're in 50th place? Aren't we all utterly humiliated?"

"This battle has only just begun!!"

Su Zhe laughed and cursed.

"You shameless bastard, just don't steal my 'Merit'!"

In an instant, Su Zhe boosted the cohesion of the trainees. They might not always trust Su Zhe, but in crucial moments, Su Zhe was the biggest variable.

Li Chen smiled slightly as he looked at the students who had stood up, while the little girl's face grew even paler.

He knew he couldn't drag this out too long; this Eerie Monsters's area-of-effect damage was too great, unlike the Eerie Monsters he had encountered before.

"Mental power?" Li Chen sneered. This was the first time he had sensed the presence of an opponent. Although it was an Eerie Monsters, he was already prepared to unleash his full power.

In an instant, intense light flashed in Li Chen's eyes, and countless light blades protected his body.

Gradually, it began to float into the air.

The faint black mist lingered among the blades of light, adding an eerie atmosphere.

At this moment, Li Chen seemed to have entered his own aura.

Many people looked over, a hint of shock flashing across their expressions.

They hadn't expected that "Li Chen" was hiding so deeply.

But they didn't have time to think about it. Dealing with these Eerie Monsters was more important. As long as they could hold out until the robot activated, everything would be over.

Li Chen floated in the air, and he could feel that he controlled the movement of all energy, and he could even sense the spiritual energy emanating from the body of the big-eyed Eerie Monsters.

"Shut up." He uttered a single word, and instantly the Eerie Monsters voice with its large eyes vanished.

Li Chen saw that his voice was blocked by energy.

Even the roaring, big-eyed Eerie Monsters was stunned and simply said, "Shut up?"

In an instant, he was engulfed in a riot; the tentacles beneath him began to sway violently, stretching and slamming into the ground in an indiscriminate attack.

A hint of indifference flashed in Li Chen's eyes, and the light blades surrounding him instantly shot out.

The tentacles were instantly severed in two and slammed heavily onto the ground.

However, the large-eyed Eerie Monsters did not stop; its flesh Distortion and contorted, and a huge tumor began to appear at the broken ends of its tentacles.

With a loud thud, black blood splattered down once more.

Countless tiny eyeballs opened within the tumor, staring intently at the direction from which the attack was launched, and began to rotate.

"As expected, it's Eerie Monsters after all." Li Chen sighed. The Eerie Monsters's instantaneous evolution had indeed surprised him.

But the Eerie Monsters evolution is not him.

Now it's even more difficult.

The countless eyeballs began to rotate, like tiny spinning tops.

It just looks disgusting.

Even Li Chen frowned, unsure of what the Eerie Monsters was trying to do.

But his several light blades had already shot out, this time he added some Compressed Bombs to those light blades.

Just like when we blew up that Eerie Monsters from the Withered Sea Realm before, only the dosage was much larger.

Buzz~

Suddenly, a piercing sound came from the body of the large-eyed Eerie Monsters, and all the light blades froze in mid-air, trembling and unable to advance any further.

Even the "Mute" that Li Chen had used for the big-eyed Eerie Monsters was completely broken.

A cracking sound rang out.

A crack appeared in the center of the Eerie Monsters, large eye, and instantly black mist began to spread.
