Outside the Floating Forest.
Adjutant Li and the rest looked into the distance with heavy hearts.
The other three Chen Fei, Cheng Cheng, and Bai Youyou had already been rescued.
Only one rescue team was injured.
However, the injured were rescued one after another. Only a few rescue teams were unable to recover from their serious injuries.
As students, Chen Fei and the other two were rescued earlier.
They watched as the subsequent soldiers carried out the Contract Soul Masters from the rescue team.
His heart turned numb.
Some Contract Soul Masters and soul pets were covered in blood. With a glance, one could tell that they had definitely experienced a life and death battle.
At this moment, only then could they understand why the reward of the Enlightenment Cup was the best reward for exploring the wilderness.
Before this, they felt that the Wilderness Soul Earth was dangerous.
But… wasn’t it fine as long as he had limbs?
However, the hidden danger could only be felt at this moment.
If they came alone, they would probably die countless times.
“What exactly happened?” Bai Youyou whispered.
“Someone attacked us in the Floating Forest…” Cheng Cheng said,” I encountered a few participants who were attacked. The injuries on their bodies did not seem to be left by those berserk soul beasts. It’s just that the rescue teams were very timely…”
“Then these Contract Soul Masters from the rescue team are so seriously injured…” Bai Youyou jumped in fright,” Who are they going to save? They probably died… Could it be…”
“It should be Wang Che.” Chen Fei pondered and said, “Of the four of us, only Wang Che has not come out. The other contestants are not in our rescue range.”
“No way?” Bai Youyou felt a little sad and sighed, “Is this the fate of the handsome? This guy is so good looking. If he’s gone just like that… I’ll be sad.”
“Perhaps the more outstanding a person is, the more unlucky they will be,” Cheng Cheng said.
“That green caterpillar… what a pity.” Chen Fei sighed regretfully, “Its worm life should have just begun…”
“Gagaga~” The Thunderbolt Eagle, who was beside Chen Fei, also shrieked.
“…” Bai Youyou.
Cheng Cheng: “…”
“Alright, the few of you.” Adjutant Li shouted, “What are you talking about? Shut up!”
The three of them immediately fell silent.
Adjutant Li looked into the distance. Wang Che’s safety was important.
More importantly, it was the plot of the Ghost Disciples.
Especially the four beams of light that shot into the sky, it made Adjutant Li’s heart beat rapidly!
“I hope Senior will succeed,” Adjutant Li muttered inwardly.
At this moment, two figures sped out of the distant Floating Forest.
Adjutant Li suddenly sighed in relief when he saw the figure in the lead.
Senior had successfully come out!
However, who was the person behind Senior Yanming?
Standing on a sword with a peerless aura, he actually looked more dignified than Senior Yan Ming?
The three people behind were also slightly stunned until they got close.
“Isn’t that Wang Che?”
Adjutant Li was stunned, “The Magnetic Sword under his feet is Senior Yan Ming’s soul pet… good fellow, I didn’t expect that I didn’t notice it just now.”
“But it’s good that you’re safe.”
Adjutant Li clapped excitedly.
Not long after, Wang Che and Li Yanming landed safely.
When he got off the Magnetic Sword, Wang Che was still not satisfied.
He looked at the Magnetic Sword and touched its hilt, saying, “If there’s a chance in the future, let’s have a go again.”
“Ssss—” The Magnetic Sword emitted a few echoes before flying to Li Yanming’s side.
Li Yanming’s soul ring flashed and he immediately put away the Magnetic Sword. Then, he glanced at Wang Che vigilantly.
He felt defeated.
Back then, just taming the rather arrogant soul pet, the Magnetic Sword, had taken him at least a month.
Alright, in just a while, it had become someone else’s toy.
It felt as if someone had taken away the child he had raised for many years.
“Wang Che, are you okay? That’s great!”
At this moment, Chen Fei and the others walked over and sized it up.
“I’m fine thanks to Officer Li.” Wang Che pointed at Li Yanming and said modestly.
“You scared me,” Bai Youyou patted her chest, “I saw that the Contract Soul Masters who went to save you were all carried out and had heavy casualties. We thought that something big had happened to you!”
Wang Che looked at the injured Contract Soul Masters and frowned slightly.
He knew that these Contract Soul Masters who had come to save him had been stopped by those Ghost Disciples.
There would definitely be heavy casualties.
Xue Batian had disguised himself as a rescue soldier and even had an officer’s ID. He had definitely taken it from these people.
From the looks of it, the casualties were not ordinary.
“You’re just a student, don’t worry about it.”
Adjutant Li patted Wang Che on the shoulder, “Don’t think too much. From the moment we brought you out of the border, your safety was our responsibility.”
The three of them felt that these words were a little heavy and did not say anything.
At this moment, Li Yanming gave Adjutant Li a few glances.
The two of them walked to the side, as if discussing something.
Adjutant Li would turn around from time to time and look at Wang Che, his eyes seemingly suppressing something.
