After a short rest, the three of them set off for the Academy, fully loaded with their harvest.

As they reached the outskirts of the East Summer Mountains, they ran into a few classmates along the way. Afraid that they would cause trouble, Feng Zhi called for Chu Yao and Qin Feng to temporarily hide.

“Hey, did you guys see that trash Ye Meng?”

“After killing a 2-star demon beast for a few days, she thought that she could advance! I saw her heading towards the 3-star demon beast area just now!”

“Second from the bottom, I’m afraid she’ll die there! Should we help her collect her corpse? We’re classmates after all!”

The few of them did not hold back their discussion. Their words were filled with contempt and they did not take Ye Meng’s life seriously at all!

Qin Feng and Feng Zhi looked at each other and cursed in their hearts!

In order to speed up her advancement speed, Ye Meng went to the tier 1, 3-star demon beast area to gain experience?

Qin Feng could not care less about anything else and went straight to the tier 1, 3-star demon beast area.

Feng Zhi did not dare to delay and followed closely behind. She gritted her teeth and thought to herself, Ye Meng! Hold On!

Roar!!

The sound of the demon beast being enraged could be heard faintly!

Ye Meng’s ribs were injured and her right hand was in a state where she could not lift it up. However, she still tried to find the weakness of the demon beast and counter-attack!

“Ye Meng!”

Qin Feng’s eyes were red and he raised his sword to help.

Feng Zhi rushed over and after seeing Ye Meng’s condition, she shot out two icicles to block his way!

“Wait, don’t go over for the time being!”

“You want to stop me? Ye Meng treats you as a friend! Are you going to watch her die here?”

Qin Feng could not control his emotions and shouted.

Ye Meng heard the noise and was distracted. The demon beast flipped her over and she spat out two mouthfuls of blood!

Feng Zhi’s heart tightened, but she was now certain that Ye Meng’s life would not be in danger. She relaxed and stared at Qin Feng with burning eyes.

“You can help her now! Are you going to help her on the test platform as well?”

“Since Ye Meng thought of the 3-star area, she wants to rely on her own strength to successfully hunt! Don’t you believe that she can succeed?”

“To truly improve! We are all in vain, she can only rely on herself!”

Feng Zhi gritted her teeth, silently clenching her fists, encouraging Ye Meng from the bottom of her heart.

She would stand guard here to ensure Ye Meng’s safety, but in order to succeed, Ye Meng had to do it herself!

Ye Meng had also heard these words. She weakly propped herself up from the ground and stood up!

“Yes! I can do it!”

She condensed her spiritual energy and transformed into two wooden sticks with thorns. She soared into the air and stabbed towards the demon beast’s eyes!

The demon beast could not see anything. It violently swept across the area and a powerful force hit Ye Meng. She kept retreating!

Qin Feng’s eyes were red. He tried his best to restrain himself and stood on the spot!

Dong!

With a muffled sound, Ye Meng used her body as a shield and crashed into the demon beast’s heart!

Boom…

The demon beast instantly turned into mist and dissipated. Ye Meng’s eyes were blurred as she looked in Feng Zhi’s direction. She let out a breath and fell to the ground.

“Zhi Zhi, I won!”
