What greeted their eyes was a scene of devastation. Traces of trampling had formed a wide path leading directly towards the entrance of the 异空间.

Dozens of meters ahead, a pile of corpses lay scattered.

Among them were Demonic Beasts, and humans too!

"Those uniforms, they're from the Demon Slaying Army!"

Qi Tian's eyes narrowed, and he said in a deep voice.

Director Liu arrived at the scene with a few people.

Besides the Demonic Beast corpses littering the ground, there were several familiar faces – members of the Demon Slaying Army who had entered with them!

However, their deaths were extremely gruesome; not a single corpse was intact! Some were missing half their heads, others a leg, their bodies mangled and bloody...

This bloody scene delivered a massive shock to Fang Bai and the others!

"Gag~"

Qi Tian couldn't hold it in and rushed to the side to vomit.

Fang Bai's face was pale. In both his lives, he had never witnessed such a scene firsthand, only seeing such things in movies...

Even A Xiu's brow was tightly furrowed at this moment...

Director Liu's expression was grave, and he said with a hint of sorrow, "They encountered a Beast Tide."

Although the Demon Slaying Army was powerful, they stood no chance against a Beast Tide!

"So many people are dead. What about Captain Qi and the others' situation now?"

Fang Bai asked worriedly.

Director Liu looked towards the end of the path, his voice heavy, "I'm afraid the Beast Tide has already headed towards the 异空间 entrance!"

Fang Bai's mouth twitched. "Then what do we do?"

If the Beast Tide was waiting for them there, they might not be able to get out.

Director Liu pondered for a moment, then said, "We'll follow and see what the situation is."

"Be careful, and don't stray from my sight!"

Director Liu instructed the group.

Fang Bai and the others nodded heavily.

It was a joke; in their current situation, they wouldn't leave even if they were told to!

As they passed the tragic battlefield, Fang Bai suddenly saw a familiar figure.

Near a small mountain formed by piled Demonic Beast corpses, a tall figure stood. His eyes were hollow, one arm was missing, and his lower body was buried in the pile of Demonic Beast corpses. Yet, even in this state, he stood tall and unyielding in death!

Fan Gang!

The Vice Captain of the Monster Slaying squad!

A Tier 3 Martial Artist!

Fang Bai hadn't expected that even he was dead!

He remembered the first time they killed a Demon Wolf, Fan Gang had given them a thumbs-up with an appreciative smile, saying, "Well done!"

And now, he had become a corpse.

Fang Bai fell silent.

He couldn't imagine how heavy the losses of the Demon Slaying squad must be if even the Vice Captain was dead!

A hand landed on his shoulder. Director Liu said calmly, "You'll encounter more life and death separations in the future. You'll get used to it."

Fang Bai looked at him.

Director Liu pulled out a bitter smile. "You may not have personally witnessed the deaths of your teachers, classmates, friends, lovers, or family. This other side of the world is just this cruel!"

Fang Bai and the others fell silent.

Director Liu led the way forward.

Fang Bai and the others followed.

Qi Tian was beside Fang Bai, and he said leisurely, "If my old man dies one day, it doesn't seem like a bad thing."

"???"

Fang Bai looked at him in shock. "You're kidding, man?"

Qi Tian said slowly, "Then I'll be the sole legal heir of the Qi Family, inheriting money that can't be spent in several lifetimes!"

Fang Bai's mouth twitched, and then he silently gave him a thumbs-up. "Filial piety breeds strength!"

Soon, the group arrived not far from the 异空间 entrance.

However, they did not approach, but observed from a distance.

At the end of their line of sight, a group of Demonic Beasts had gathered.

A dense black mass, their numbers were astonishing.

They were all gathered at the entrance to the 异空间, pushing and shoving to get ahead. However, due to the limited space, some of them were still stuck inside.

"They're breaking out of the alternate dimension!"

Outside the 异空间 was a small town. Although it was remote, these Demonic Beasts would reach human settlements within an hour!

Director Liu said calmly, "Don't worry, they won't get out. There's human power at the town entrance holding them back."

He didn't seem too concerned.

If a mere B-class 异空间 could be overrun, then humanity's survival all these years would have been in vain.

Director Liu stood up and looked at Fang Bai and the others. He said seriously, "You few find a place to hide and come out after the battle subsides."

Fang Bai asked doubtfully, "Then what are you going to do, Director?"

Director Liu adjusted his tie. "Naturally, I'm going to kill Demonic Beasts."

Fang Bai's expression was strange. "Aren't you a civilian official?"

Director Liu smiled calmly. "Although that's true, I do know a thing or two about fighting."

"We'll go too!"

Director Liu raised his hand to stop them. "Your strength is too weak, you can't possibly join a battle of this level. From now on, Fang Bai, your final assessment continues. The standard is to hide until the battle ends, and everyone must survive!"

After speaking, he looked at the horde of Demonic Beasts in the distance, and a terrifying Exotic Energy suddenly surged around him!

Fang Bai and the others were shocked because it was the first time they had seen Director Liu display his strength!

This pressure was even greater than Qi Zhen's!

Director Liu activated his Exotic Energy and took a step forward. In the next second, he appeared ten meters away and charged towards the battlefield!

Fang Bai stared blankly at his retreating figure. "Old Director still has some tricks up his sleeve."

Qi Tian said, "Of course. How could someone who can be a leader at the Martial Academy be useless?"

A Xiu calmly asked, "What do we do now?"

Qi Tian said matter-of-factly, "Of course, we find a place to lie low! Are we supposed to go die?"

A Xiu didn't look at him but at Fang Bai.

After some thought, Fang Bai's gaze fell on the battlefield.

Most of the powerful Demonic Beasts were gathered at the entrance of the 异空间, while some weaker ones were scattered around.

Fang Bai then said, "We can't just hide forever, we have to help kill Demonic Beasts! Of course, we won't go with them, we'll just pick off the stragglers!"

Xiao Yuan clapped his fists together, a fighting spirit in his eyes.

Qi Tian was somewhat speechless. "Are we really going to take risks? There are human powerhouses who will deal with them. We're still just kids!"

Fang Bai looked at him. "Old Qi, if you want to hide, I have no objections. I'm going to fight Demonic Beasts anyway. Let's split up now, be careful, and don't die!"

With that, he ran towards the battlefield.

Seeing this, Xiao Yuan immediately followed. Fang Bai was his Big Brother, and he had promised to teach him knowledge, so of course, he had to stick close.

A Xiu thought for a moment on the spot, then followed as well.

Qi Tian stood there, annoyed. He plopped down and muttered, "What a bunch of lunatics! Always rushing into danger! I'm not playing with you guys! There will be plenty of wealth and glory waiting for this young master when we get out! I will absolutely not go to my death! Hmph!"

He looked at the three figures running ahead, his gaze somewhat complex.

Fang Bai, at the very front, had a calm expression.

For him now, joining the Martial Academy or not didn't matter. Rather than joining the Martial Academy, he would prefer to kill Demonic Beasts in the 异空间.

After all, his system only got stronger by killing Demonic Beasts!

He stopped at a large rock.

Xiao Yuan's charge had been too noisy, making them extremely easy to spot by Demonic Beasts.

Hiding behind the rock, Fang Bai looked at A Xiu, who had also arrived, and was a little surprised. "A Xiu, why are you here too?"

A Xiu calmly said, "Didn't you want to kill Demonic Beasts? I'll help you."

Fang Bai said seriously, "This is very dangerous."

A Xiu looked at him faintly. "You're the captain, I'm a team member. I'll listen to you."

Fang Bai was a little touched.

Look at that! This is true team spirit and perseverance!

Then A Xiu suddenly added, "Besides, my strength is greater than yours, so my chances of survival will be higher."

Fang Bai: "..." Girl, you really didn't need to add that last part.

Fang Bai glanced at a spot under a large tree not far away.

There were two pig demons gathered there, and a giant python was coiled around the tree trunk.

All Tier 1 Demonic Beasts!

"Our target is them. A Xiu, use [Teleportation] to deal with that snake. Xiao Yuan and I will handle those two pigs. Let's try to finish the fight within a minute!"

A Xiu nodded, and her figure immediately disappeared from her spot!

Fang Bai was stunned. "Wait, I haven't even said 'go' yet!"

Shouldn't she wait for my command?

It seems A Xiu, despite her outward team spirit, is actually quite headstrong!

Seeing A Xiu had already charged out, Fang Bai gritted his teeth and called to Xiao Yuan, "Let's go!"

Xiao Yuan nodded heavily, his tall frame rushing out from behind the rocks!

The two pig demons also spotted Fang Bai and Xiao Yuan immediately. They hadn't expected two humans to trespass on their territory, and their eyes immediately turned red!
