The roar echoed in our ears.

Countless robots were running wildly through the Ruined City.

That technological city, which should have been radiating a deep blue hue, is now turning completely red.

Both humans and robots know what red represents.

Alert!!

After Li Chen returned to his apartment, his expression changed slightly.

He knew something big was about to happen.

At this moment, Su Zhe hurriedly pushed open the door and walked in, panting.

"Chen-ge, go... go... go to No. 1 Slaughter Arena!!"

"War has broken out!"

"Our Instructor Yu divided us into two groups: one group guarded number one, and the other group guarded number two."

Li Chen nodded slightly and stood up.

A glint of light flashed in his eyes; the war had come too suddenly.

Even the Pass Master didn't react in time.

Otherwise, Gu Cheng wouldn't have shown that expression just now.

No. 1 Slaughter Arena.

Many trainees have already arrived here.

However, their expressions subtly changed; they were afraid.

They were just trainees who never expected that the sudden outbreak of war would require them to participate.

Many trainees stood there hesitant, knowing what coming to this place meant facing something.

An endless stream of Eerie Monsters.

This time they had no way out, because the moment they entered, these once towering robots were already in position, ready to fire at any moment.

Of course, it was aimed at the steel gate that had not yet been opened.

Lin Hua and Di Li were also at No. 1 Slaughter Arena.

Lin Hua's face, however, didn't change much. He had matured a lot in the past few months and was no longer as arrogant as before.

However, at this moment, his body was trembling slightly, not from fear, but from excitement, boundless excitement.

"The Eerie Tide has arrived!"

"I had heard about it before, but I never thought it would actually happen to me."

Di Li rolled her eyes, a hint of worry appearing in her eyes.

This Eerie Tide was like a sudden storm, engulfing the entire Ruined City and Ruined Pass.

Only by persevering through everything can we see the light at the end of the tunnel.

At this moment, Li Chen and Su Zhe walked in, and many people revealed subtle smiles.

"Chen-ge, why are these people suddenly staring at us like that today?"

"Is it because of my good looks?"

Su Zhe is suspicious of ghosts and spirits.

Li Chen remained silent and did not answer.

He had guessed a lot about what these people were thinking. Since their students had been divided into two Slaughter Arena, it meant that each side would be divided into groups of weak and strong.

Now that Li Chen has arrived here, then No. 2 Slaughter Ground must be Su Xian and the others.

This is the best allocation, allowing stronger students to give weaker students a buffer period.

I don't know how much time has passed...

Almost all the trainees were present, but there were only about twenty people scattered around, which was less than a third of the Special Class.

"Chen-ge, what exactly happened?"

"Aren't we two classes? If we divide it in half, there should be about 50 people here, right?"

"Why is there so little? Are they scared?"

Su Zhe kept rambling on and on.

Li Chen glanced at the sounds coming from the steel gate and said, "Baozi, when it starts, try to stay close to me."

Su Zhe paused for a moment, then grinned.

He naturally knew what Li Chen meant.

Jianping isn't here today, which means he's been assigned to number 2, meaning only Li Chen can protect him.

Although his strength seems quite impressive, it is ultimately a physical battle, and sooner or later his stamina will be exhausted.

A tearing sound followed.

The steel gate, which had been blocking the way for so long, suddenly began to make a loud scraping sound.

A sharp, tentacle pierced right through the entire steel gate.

A black, viscous liquid began to flow onto the steel.

The sound of corrosion was hissing.

Extremely disgusting.

Whoosh~

In an instant, the steel gate was completely torn apart.

A series of terrifying figures, accompanied by roars, appeared.

At that moment, the robots moved, and the Gatling guns they had been preparing for a long time opened fire.

Boom!

Explosions rang out, and the Eerie Monsters seemed endless; as soon as one died, another rushed in.

There was no buffer time this time.

Even the gate that Li Chen and his group had entered through was now closed.

The pass cannot be breached, so they must fight to the very end.

Soon, a number of Eerie Monsters rushed towards them.

Li Chen's body shimmered with light blades, his eyes fixed on the Eerie Monsters, and he spoke.

"Su Zhe! Be careful!"

If you can't win, yell "Help!"

The same words were spoken by Li Chen, not Yu Qingnian to Su Zhe this time.

He was never a heartless person, just somewhat lacking in emotion. Su Zhe was a friend who had been with him for a long time, and he wouldn't let him die.

Su Zhe nodded vigorously, his hand gripping the hammer tightly.

He didn't know what his fate would hold, but he knew he had powerful backers!

The war broke out instantly.

The students, who were initially somewhat fearful, went completely mad after their escape routes were cut off.

Only by killing the Eerie Monsters before them can they have a chance of survival.

Knock knock~

Suddenly, a crashing sound rang out, and a robot standing at the front was knocked down by the Eerie Monsters, followed by a corrosive sound.

Di Li, controlling a Tree Demon, shouted, "Don't let those Eerie Monsters turn the robots into scrap metal!"

"The robots are our strong support; they can't afford to fall here. If they fall, it will be even more disadvantageous for us!!"

Upon hearing his words, many trainees instantly gathered at the feet of the robots.

They seemed to be prepared to live or die together.

Lin Hua and Li Chen, however, actually charged straight into the midst of those Eerie Monsters.

Countless bizarre limbs were severed and cut by Li Chen's light blade.

The weaker, more Eerie Monsters seemed hesitant to approach Li Chen.

After all, Li Chen, who had absorbed so many Forbidden Substances, was a monster in the eyes of these Eerie Monsters —a Eerie Monsters in human skin.

Roar~

A roar rang out, and an Eerie Monsters, wielding a stone pillar found from who-knows-where, charged towards Li Chen.

Bang!

His attack came crashing down.

However, Li Chen was not harmed at all; a black light barrier blocked his path.

"Vector!!"

In an instant, a gust of wind, carrying countless light blades, pierced through the Eerie Monsters's body.

Black blood was spilled everywhere.

Even Forbidden Substances were absorbed.

Li Chen now knows that unless he directly shatters these Eerie Monsters' bodies, they will heal.

Or perhaps he possesses the ability to directly seize their source power, which would instantly kill even Eerie Monsters at the Withered Sea Realm.

Lin Hua, standing not far away, looked somewhat shocked, but he didn't stop his spear.

Every Eerie Monsters in front of him was instantly blown to the head.

"That guy Li Chen is indeed powerful."

"But I'm not weak now either!!"
