Five points modified.
Xiang Beifei did not ask further but looked at Tang He thoughtfully.
Tang He was a normal person, of that there was no mistake, because he had a system interface that was rapidly updating. His [Po Jun Eye System] was a type of reconnaissance system which could also quickly identify an opponent's weaknesses and use them to defeat the opponent.
Everything in his system log appeared normal, a fact that could not escape Xiang Beifei's eyes.
However, what Xiang Beifei found strange was—
This guy, for some reason, had a faint hint of Ghostly Visage's aura about him!
Was it because he had been attacked by Ghostly Visage that this aura lingered?
The moment these people appeared, the atmosphere suddenly felt off.
Chen Baiwen, Yu Hongbo, Zhu Xinjue!
It was the team from Yanzhou University!
He had not expected that they would also show up here!
At a glance, Zhu Xinjue noticed Xiang Beifei in the crowd and his heart skipped a beat, then a look of resentment flashed in his eyes, but he quickly concealed it.
Because their alliance with Qingzhou University had already collapsed, they were unable to join forces against Xiang Beifei.
When Yu Hongbo and Chen Baiwen saw Xiang Beifei, they were also slightly surprised! The two couldn't help but exchange glances!
Just yesterday, they had been thinking about joining forces with Qingzhou University to deal with Xiang Beifei, but then they couldn't find Xiang Beifei, and instead, Hou Chengwu of Qingzhou University ended up dead.
They hadn't expected to encounter Xiang Beifei here either.
"Don't panic! He probably doesn't know about yesterday's incident!"
Chen Baiwen made a gesture to Yu Hongbo and the others. Without speaking, they understood each other.
Yu Hongbo steadied himself and said, "Xiang Beifei, I've long admired your reputation. I am Yu Hongbo, the leader of the Yanzhou University team."
Chen Baiwen also nodded slightly, but did not speak.
Xiang Beifei looked thoughtfully at the people from Yanzhou University, his gaze sweeping over them, and then he looked at Zhu Xinjue before saying after a long while, "What brings you guys here?"
"After we entered this Withered Forest, we realized something was amiss, and later we made our way to this mountain. The situation outside is dire, did you also encounter those bizarre tree people just now?" asked Yu Hongbo.
"That's right." Xiang Beifei said, unfazed.
"Are you all unharmed?" Yu Hongbo asked.
"Not too bad," Xiang Beifei glanced at Tang He behind him; Tang He was from Qingzhou University, and their team's situation seemed quite grim at the moment.
When Tang He saw Yu Hongbo and the others, his expression also showed shock. He hadn't expected to run into people from Yanzhou University when Hou Chengwu from his university, Qingzhou, had died at the hands of "Zhu Pengfei!"
But he dared not say much now; he was just an SR-level Qi-Controlling Awakener in the late stages, and without any teammates around, he was no match for these people from Yanzhou University.
"How long have you been in this Withered Forest?" Xiang Beifei asked.
"We entered last night!" Yu Hongbo said.
"Last night? You've been here for almost a day now?" Xiang Beifei was somewhat surprised.
"Yes, we have been here since last night!"
Yu Hongbo no longer harbored thoughts of dealing with Xiang Beifei; in fact, he was entertaining the notion of joining forces with Xiang Beifei.
Because their team was also in a very difficult position.
This place was too eerie, they were trapped and couldn't find a way out, and upon seeing Xiang Beifei, a glimmer of hope rose in Yu Hongbo's heart.
Xiang Beifei was strong; perhaps he had some way out!
"So are you alright?" Xiang Beifei asked.
"One of our team members had an accident," Yu Hongbo said with a grave tone.
There were only four people left in their team now.
"From last night until now, have you been on this mountain the whole time?" Xiang Beifei asked.
"Not exactly; we were initially walking in the Withered Forest, but then it suddenly got dark, and with things looking bad, we ran up to the mountain. We realized that those tree people didn't dare to follow up here, and we were relieved. We weren't on this mountain at first but on another one."
"So you're that N-level Awakener, Xiang Beifei?"
Chen Baiwen's face didn't look too good facing Xiang Beifei; he didn't really want to come up, as Hou Chengwu's loss beforehand had been inexplicable, and he hadn't seen clearly how Hou was defeated.
If he himself lost to an N-level student, it would practically be the end of his reputation.
Yet, if he didn't come up to challenge Xiang Beifei, he would be even more regarded as a coward, tantamount to indirectly proving that he, a powerful SSR-level Awakener, was afraid of an N-level!
Without fighting, Xiang Beifei would essentially win by default.
After all, like Hou Chengwu, he had disregarded Liangzhou University for accepting N-level students, being persuaded by other universities not to go to Liangzhou.
Since Chen Baiwen had chosen to give up on Liangzhou University from the start, it showed that he too was a self-important SSR. How could he not prove himself?
Xiang Beifei just watched Zhu Xinjue calmly, but a killing intent surfaced in his eyes.
Last time he hadn't killed this guy, who clearly intended to come and kill him; therefore, this time he must kill Zhu Xinjue!
However, just as he finished speaking, he felt his knees buckle and he suddenly knelt down right in front of Xiang Beifei!
Zhu Xinjue and the others were also startled!
