Li Xue looked at Fang Bai with a strange expression. "You did this?"
Fang Bai replied without changing his expression, "How could that be? Senior Li, you can't just accuse people! We all ate the same thing, and Yu Bing ate my portion of meat back then."
Li Xue looked at Zhang Zifeng, who said solemnly, "I still trust Fang Bai's character. This kid has been kind-hearted since he was little."
Fang Bai: "..."
Li Xue's mouth twitched.
What the hell did he mean, since he was little?
She now seriously suspected that Yu Bing had been set up by these two guys.
Still, it made perfect sense. Yu Bing and Fang Bai had been at odds the entire way.
She immediately said, "No matter what, we're classmates. We still have to save him."
Fang Bai and Zhang Zifeng exchanged a look, then nodded.
By now, Yu Bing had lost all ability to fight, while several Thunder Spotted Pythons slithered toward him.
Yu Bing's face was pale. He had been spraying nonstop, leaving his entire body in its most vulnerable state.
"It's over! I don't want to die like this..."
Just as the Thunder Spotted Pythons opened their bloody maws, a clear shout rang out. "Beasts! Shut your mouths!"
Several thorny branches shot over and knocked them back.
Yu Bing's face lit up with delight. "Senior, save me!"
Li Xue glanced at him, then shifted several steps away with obvious disgust. "Stay farther away from me, thank you."
Yu Bing: "..."
What should he do if he suddenly didn't want to live anymore?
"Classmate Yu Bing! We're here to save you!"
Fang Bai's voice rang out. Immediately afterward, he and Zhang Zifeng arrived.
Yu Bing stared at him fiercely. "Stop pretending to be a good person! I don't believe this has nothing to do with you!"
Fang Bai said innocently, "I don't know what you're talking about!"
Zhang Zifeng chimed in, "Maybe he had diarrhea-induced hallucinations."
Fang Bai nodded in deep agreement.
Yu Bing: "..."
Fuck!
Fang Bai was still somewhat disappointed. He had originally wanted to use the Thunder Spotted Pythons to get rid of Yu Bing, but who knew the guy's luck would be so damned good.
Of course, if Li Xue hadn't been here...
Fang Bai's eyes rolled around as he wondered who knew what.
Li Xue spoke up then. "This isn't the time for infighting. We need to retreat."
The commotion here was too great. It would definitely draw other demon beasts!
Everyone nodded as well.
Fang Bai looked at Yu Bing and asked with concern, "Classmate Yu Bing, you're not dead, are you?"
Yu Bing snorted.
Li Xue decisively said, "Huo Qi, you and Yu Bing retreat first. We'll cover the rear!"
Huo Qi nodded. "Understood!"
Yu Bing did not hesitate either. He had become deadweight now...
But after running several dozen meters, Yu Bing's expression changed.
"Oh no!"
The feeling was back! A sensation like flying!
He could not hold it in and sprayed again.
Huo Qi's face darkened. He decisively sped up and widened the distance between them.
Damn it! He really wanted to toss this guy to the demon beasts and let them eat him!
Yu Bing's humiliation had reached its peak!
"Fang Bai! Zhang Zifeng! Just you wait!"
Fang Bai, Li Xue, and Zhang Zifeng held off the Thunder Spotted Pythons.
This was a great opportunity for Fang Bai! He charged into battle as though pumped full of chicken blood. Every time he appeared, another demon beast's life was harvested!
And his Exotic Energy kept increasing!
Finally!
[Congratulations! Host's dark element has reached First Order Peak!]
Dark energy spilled from Fang Bai's body, making his entire aura incomparably eerie. Then, he completely melted into the darkness!

Before long, a Second Order Thunder Spotted Python died beneath his blade!
[Host has killed a Second Order demon beast and obtained a moderate amount of Exotic Energy!] [Ding! Detected that the host meets the advancement requirements. Advance?] [One: Break through to Second Order lightning element!] [Two: Break through to Second Order dark element!]
A sharp glint flashed through Fang Bai's eyes. "Break through to Second Order lightning element!"
[Breakthrough successful! Congratulations to the host for advancing to Second Order lightning element!] [System bonus reward triggered!] [Reward: One skill enhancement opportunity (enhance any skill by +20%)] [Reward: Host physique increased by 30%! (Speed +30%, stamina +30%)] [Reward: One "Spatial Teleportation" for the host: Can teleport to any location within a range of ten kilometers!]
As Fang Bai broke through to Second Order, his aura became more than twice as powerful as before!
All aspects of him had improved. Coupled with the system's additional rewards, his overall abilities were now no weaker than those of someone at late Second Order!
Fang Bai briefly examined the rewards, then said, "System, enhance my [Lightning Domain]!"
[Enhancement complete! Lightning Domain +20%! Current domain range: twelve meters!]
Lightning seemed to flash through Fang Bai's eyes. The next second, he directly activated Lightning Domain!
Within the domain, his lightning-element skills received a 20% boost!
Two First Order Thunder Spotted Pythons stood within twelve meters!
As Fang Bai used his first skill, the two demon beasts were instantly killed without question!
[First Order demon beasts killed x2. Obtained a small amount of Exotic Energy!]
"This is insane! That kid actually broke through!"
Zhang Zifeng's eyes widened round, his face full of disbelief.
Li Xue noticed it as well, and shock filled her heart.
Why did Fang Bai's breakthrough feel as easy as drinking water?
Was this talent?
Fang Bai had already killed until his eyes turned red. If he kept killing like this, it probably would not be long before both of his elements reached Second Order!
However, at that moment, several powerful auras approached!
Li Xue's expression changed slightly. "Not good! Third Order demon beasts are coming!"
Fang Bai immediately stopped fighting, then turned and ran without hesitation!
The wind was tight—run!
Li Xue and Zhang Zifeng fled as well!
A group of Third Order demon beasts was coming. There was only one road ahead for them: death!
Two seconds after they left, several demon beasts radiating Third Order auras appeared on the scene.
When they saw the mess covering the ground, especially the stench filling the air, they actually covered their noses and mouths in a humanlike manner.
A Demon Wolf grabbed a Thunder Spotted Python and communicated with it in beast language.
After learning what had happened, it casually sliced the Thunder Spotted Python's body apart with its claws. Then several demon beasts chased in the direction Fang Bai's group had fled!
A few mere humans dared to run wild in their territory. They were truly tired of living!
The group quickly caught up with Huo Qi, who had deliberately waited for them.
"Where's Yu Bing?"
Huo Qi pointed in one direction with a strange expression. "He went to have diarrhea."
Everyone: "..."
Li Xue said gravely, "We need to hurry to the Monster Slaying Army base!"
The instant she finished speaking, a beastly roar came from behind them!
Fang Bai suddenly said, "Senior, you go first. I'll lure them away!"
Li Xue and the others' expressions changed. "No! That's a group of Third Order demon beasts. If you lure them away, aren't you seeking your own death?"
Fang Bai grinned. "I'm a dark-element user. If I want to run, my chances of surviving are greater than yours. Listen to me. Otherwise, none of us will get away!"
Li Xue pondered.
Fang Bai said directly, "There's no time! Go now, bring reinforcements back to save me! Oh, right, remember to add an extra contribution reward."
Li Xue rolled her beautiful eyes and said, "Fine. Be careful! Hold on until we get back!"
They bid Fang Bai farewell and raced wildly along the way they had come!
A great escape played out once again!
Fang Bai took a deep breath, then turned to look at the demon beasts already within sight. Good heavens, there were five or six Third Order ones alone!
Then he immediately dashed in one direction.
That direction was precisely where Yu Bing had gone to have diarrhea...
