Sudden Upheaval: Purgatory!

At this moment.

Chen Feng and the others had already gone far away.

"Your teacher is seriously impressive."

Xu Fei sighed in admiration. With his current insight, he could naturally see through it all. "If I didn't know better, I'd have thought that guy graduated from an acting academy."

"Why didn't you expose him?"

Zhou Ling looked at Chen Feng curiously.

"Too much trouble."

Chen Feng shook his head. "Since it has nothing to do with our interests, I wouldn't care even if he flew into the sky."

Everyone smiled.

"Still, kid, you've really made me see you in a new light."

Xu Fei was impressed.

He had thought they would have to fight for their lives today, yet Chen Feng had resolved everything so easily in the end.

Thinking of that mysterious and powerful Gene Reagent, Xu Fei felt a chill in his heart. Chen Feng, who appeared to possess only One-Star production skills, was absolutely qualified to stand on equal footing with them.

"Let's go. We should leave this place first."

Chen Feng suddenly spoke. "This place keeps giving me an ominous feeling."

"Me too."

Houzi said the same.

"Let's go."

Xu Fei quickly led everyone away.

**

Dragonfall Mountain.

The outermost edge.

Two people stood on the shore, watching the island at the center from afar. Numbers kept flashing across the Light Screen before them, finally settling at ninety-six.

"Almost enough."

"Yeah. The first batch of people driven away by that teacher are about to come out."

"What a pity. If that damned guy hadn't chased people away, there would definitely have been more left behind."

"Ninety-six people are enough."

The two spoke calmly.

Several hundred years ago, a drop of Mutated Sea Dragon Beast blood had accidentally fallen here, transforming the wilderness into a sea. The power of the Sea Dragon Blood had seeped into every drop of seawater. From that moment on, they had made their plans, spending hundreds of years cultivating Mutated Beasts for this very day!

To turn this Sea Dragon Blood into true Sea Dragon Essence Blood!

Now—

As long as they fused together the essence blood of every Mutated Beast in these waters that contained Sea Dragon bloodline, it would be possible to refine the legendary Sea Dragon Essence Blood!

As for a Mutated Sea Dragon Beast?

It had never appeared!

How could such a creature possibly appear in such a barren place? Even that so-called Dragonfall legend was merely a rumor Jin City had fabricated to make itself look good.

"Several hundred years of anticipation..."

One of them muttered.

"Indeed."

"We have no right whatsoever to even touch normal Sea Dragon Essence Blood. But by using this method to deceive the heavens and cultivate Sea Dragon Essence Blood, we might be able to produce a Sea Dragon Gene. As long as someone fuses with the Sea Dragon Gene and a powerful expert is born, our Dragon Family will truly rise!"

"Yes. Just one. The rise of a single powerful expert will be enough!"

The other said quietly.

Their eyes burned with fervor.

"Then..."

"Let's begin!"

The two raised their hands.

Boom!

The sea suddenly began to boil.

At that moment, every Mutated Beast's eyes turned red.

Awooo—

Awooo—

Countless screams rang out.

Several people who had nearly reached the shore were frantically attacked by Mutated Beasts that suddenly appeared in the sea.

"This is bad, all the Mutated Beasts have gone crazy."

"Their strength has increased severalfold. We can't stop them at all."

"Quick, the shore!"

Everyone fled toward the shore in a panic.

However, just as they were about to reach the shore, one of the two men waved his hand, and a surge of seawater swept them back into the ocean.

"No!"

A despairing scream rang out.

The seawater...

turned blood-red.

Human blood and Mutated Beast blood mingled together at that moment.

Meanwhile.

Chen Feng and the others had just reached the entrance to the Fourth Layer when their expressions suddenly changed. For some reason, the first three layers, which had already been cleared out, were now filled with Mutated Beasts. Their eyes were red as they charged toward the Fourth Layer.

"This is bad."

Xu Fei's expression shifted slightly. "The Third Layer is full of crazed Mutated Beasts!"

"Not just the Third Layer."

Houzi suddenly spoke, light flickering in his eyes. "Every Mutated Beast in Dragonfall Mountain has gone mad. The first, second, and Third Layers—every Mutated Beast is rushing toward us!"

"What do we do?"

Zhou Ling's face turned pale.

They could face Xie Kangzhong without fear, but Mutated Beasts...

"Wait."

Brilliance flashed in Houzi's eyes. "I found a path. Follow me."

"Okay."

Everyone quickly followed.

Boom!

Boom!

The entire Dragonfall Mountain seemed on the verge of collapse.

Something had happened.

Something truly terrible had happened!

Yet they had only fled less than a hundred meters when they saw Xie Kangzhong in the distance, his face filled with panic as he led everyone fleeing in their direction.

"The fifth layer..."

"The Mutated Beast from the fifth layer came down!"

"That thing has gone crazy! It's hunting us down!" someone shouted.

They screamed in terror.

Yet no one paid them any attention.

Chen Feng's group of five hurried onward, leaving their sight. The advantage of having fewer people became apparent at a time like this. There were simply too many students, and they could not move quickly at all.

Xie Kangzhong was nearly despairing.

Because he suddenly realized that if this continued... everyone would die!

Including himself!

Of course, if he led everyone out alive this time, he would earn countless favors. But no matter how many favors he gained, they would be useless if he was dead!

And now...

Xie Kangzhong looked at the trembling Ice Crystal Cave and the Mutated Beasts everywhere. After struggling for a moment, he gritted his teeth. Flowing Light flashed around him, and he actually charged downward alone.

He... had actually run away!

"Teacher!"

All the students were dumbfounded.

Run...

He had run away?

Their homeroom teacher had actually fled by himself?

Wang Yue was stunned.

Su Jin was stunned.

Everyone was stunned.

No matter what, they had never imagined that their teacher, who had just righteously spoken up for them, would turn around without hesitation and run, abandoning them! At that moment, Chen Feng's words seemed to echo in their hearts: "If you trust that guy, you'll regret it sooner or later..."

Now, they regretted it.

They regretted it bitterly!

What were they supposed to do?

This place was not somewhere F-Class Warriors like them could survive, let alone now, when all the mutated beasts here had gone mad!

Everyone collapsed.

"I don't want to die."

Someone began to cry.

"I'm a future genius! I can't die here!"

Someone shouted hysterically.

Su Jin looked in a certain direction, sorrow flashing through her eyes. If... if they had listened to Chen Feng just now, would Chen Feng have saved them?

But...

Everyone regretted it.

"Damn it."

Wang Yue's mouth had gone dry.

He had never expected something like this to happen.

They tried to contact others, only to discover that, at some point, all signals had been blocked! They could not reach anyone!

"I can't die."

"I shouldn't die here."

Wang Yue was going mad.

His status was so noble—how could he die in a place like this?

Absolutely not!

But how could he survive?

At that moment—

He fell into despair as well.

"It's over."

Someone had already slumped helplessly to the ground. The mutated beasts in the distance kept drawing nearer. Many people activated their Gene Abilities to resist, but what use was it?

No matter how powerful your Gene Ability was!

No matter how great your talent was!

Here...

In this place filled with E-Class Mutated Beasts, there was only one path waiting for them: death.

"Can we contact the school?"

Someone asked.

"The signal's gone."

Su Jin shook her head bitterly.

"We're... finished."

This time—

Everyone was truly desperate.

Geniuses, university—at this moment, all of it had become a joke.
