“Listen carefully again!” Mu Bai demanded, his voice harder.

Sunny was startled. Even though he was angry about it, he still obeyed the order.

He closed his eyes and listened carefully. He could hear everything within three kilometers, despite the complicated terrain and hidden caves.

A girl was saying how handsome Lecturer Mu Han was to her friend around a hundred meters behind him.

A wild deer was sprinting around five hundred meters ahead.

A rock was falling down a cliff two kilometers away.

He could not identify the sounds three kilometers away. He could still hear them, but it was too difficult to tell whether they were the movement of demon creatures or the sounds of nature.

There was no presence of any demon creatures within two kilometers of the group. The lecturer had obviously made a mistake, yet he was still putting on airs.

“Thud!”

“Thud!”

He suddenly heard a faint sound from around five hundred meters ahead.

Was it from the deer?

Something was not right, it did not sound like a deer’s footsteps. It was more like the sound of a drum.

The wild deer picked up its pace as it was running past a shrub. It was fleeing for its life. Sunny heard the drumming quickening, but it soon calmed down and faded away.

The sound… It’s a beating heart!

The heartbeats of an enormous creature!

The wild deer had run away from where it was hiding. The creature was a little tempted to pounce on the deer, but it had chosen to stay hidden in the shrub instead, as if it was waiting for bigger prey!

The only living creature in the vicinity other than their group was the wild deer!

Damn it!

There was really a threat nearby! In just a few minutes, they would have been walking past the huge creature. It would be fine if their guards could react in time. If not, someone would be eaten alive!

Sunny opened his eyes. His forehead was covered in a cold sweat. His arrogance and resentment of the lecturer were replaced by disbelief!

“Lecturer Mu Han, are you a Sound Mage too? Did you hear its heartbeats from further away?” Sunny had to ask.

“Did you realize your mistake now?” Mu Bai asked him instead.

“Yes, I was being too careless,” Sunny admitted with a hint of remorse.

“If you were in the wild, people might have died because of your mistake, which is why I’ve emphasized how important it is to stay on guard at all times. But you and the other students aren’t treating this seriously. I expected much more from the students of the Aorus Sacred Institute!” Mu Bai stated coldly.
