As the players faced a trial with upgraded rewards but little chance of survival, they also discovered that Chu Feng’s island had a portal while the trial’s island reward did not.

• The game announced that Wang Yu had collected a large quantity of Strange Fruit, urged players to leave the trial, and upgraded the completion rewards to include an island, an Otherworld Portal, and thirty Strange Fruits.
• Players realized the island reward did not automatically include a portal and accused Chu Feng of misleading them about his own island.

As the island’s volcano erupted, Su Qingxue led the Qinghong Society toward the coast while predators overwhelmed the players’ shelters and Chu Feng escaped into a Mysterious Realm Space.
