Ai Hui felt that he really was a jinx.

Upon hearing that long beast howl, he knew that they were at the most critical moment.

The points that he had mentioned to Duanmu Huanghun were not casual opinions but the things that he was most puzzled about. He still had many doubts that he hadn’t mentioned, but at this juncture, all of them were unimportant.

Although he was unable to identify the wild beast’s type from its howl, he was sure that they were unable to defeat it.

Perhaps only Instructor Zhou could.

He had seen many dire beasts in the Wilderness, and every single mighty dire beast definitely had an imposing manner. Just like people who held high positions, they had gestures and mannerisms that were different from ordinary folk. The law of the jungle was, obviously, even crueler and prevalent in the jungle. Battles between wild beasts were more straightforward, and in order to protect their own territory, wild beasts didn’t know what it meant to keep a low profile—the king of the beasts must be cruel, vicious, and warlike. Only then would they be able to achieve success and attain the title of king of the beasts.

Those who managed to survive the law of the jungle had the instinct to fear danger and cower in front of those who were stronger.

Ai Hui had clearly noticed the panic of the surrounding wild beasts after hearing the beast howl.

And he instantly knew that the distant wild beast was not something they could compete against.

Furthermore, the flock of wild beasts that was rushing up suddenly scattered, as if there was an opening at the other end. They left the rubble and dispersed into the distance.

While there was joy on the other students’ faces, Ai Hui’s pupils constricted, and his hair stood on end.

Pieces of flesh were scattered on the ground. Those wild beasts had run for their lives without even bothering about the flesh that they initially could not resist. This was the first time Ai Hui had seen such bloody chunks of the flesh on the ground.

There was only one possibility—that ferocious beast was approaching!

Damn it!

The intensified fear stimulated all of Ai Hui’s brain’s nerves. He knew that they had to quickly come up with a response. It would be too late when the ferocious beast discovered them.

What should he do?

He forced himself to calm down. He repeated to himself that it was not the first time he had encountered such a situation. He had experienced much worse in the Wilderness. Back then, he did not have any support, and the elementalists also did not care if he was dead or alive. However, now, the teachers would not be callous and make him fight his own battles.

How did he hide previously?

Ai Hui jolted. Hide…...

Yes!

Hide! Only if they hide would there be a possibility to survive.

Hide...hide... hide...

The wheels in Ai Hui’s head spun furiously as he recalled that at the most dangerous juncture, he had covered himself in mud and had hidden in the sludge, thus having a narrow escape.

His gaze swept over the surroundings, but there were only rocks. There was no mud here.

Rocks...

His gaze fell onto the largest one. That rock was about ten meters tall and was slanted at a certain angle. Ai Hui’s eyes brightened as he shouted, ”Everyone, hide beneath that piece of rock!”

Everyone looked bewildered.

Duanmu Huanghun’s brain had been filled to the brim with Ai Hui’s predictions when one of them had come true. This had heightened his uneasiness. And when he saw the calm Ai Hui have such an intense reaction, he instantly became alert.

”Move over everyone! Listen to Ai Hui’s commands!” Teacher Xu’s voice rang out. He had also picked up on Ai Hui’s nervousness. In his memory, Ai Hui had never been this anxious.
