Qiao Mu had already thought it out. That level-three spiritual beast was quite large.
Even though spiritual beast meat was really tough and unpalatable, it was food that they had procured themselves in any case.
Most importantly, that Wei Xu just kept targeting them. On the off chance he learned about the storage talisman, he just might say that they were cheating and disqualify them.
Qiao Mu was feeling whatever about attending this academy.
But when she saw Qi Xuanxuan’s expectant expression, she didn’t want to see the latter disappointed.
If they subsisted on spiritual beast meat, that nitpicky mentor could say nothing about it even if he found out.
The spiritual beast was their kill, so what if they ate half of it?
The other four people exchanged glances silently. Every cultivator knew that mystic beasts and spiritual beasts were unpalatable. Unless there was no other choice, not a single cultivator would consume that tough and dry meat…
Qi Xuanxuan and the little fatty nibbled the winter fruit in their hands. It was crunchy, fragrant, and juicy. It couldn’t be any more tasty.
The little fatty finished off both winter fruits at once. He sighed with emotion as he remarked, “Qiaoqiao, why do these winter fruits of yours taste so much better than the ones we buy outside.”
“Mhm, mhm. I think so too.” Winter fruits were sold everywhere. Even if the market price was much higher than in the past, people could buy them as long as they had money.
That’s why everyone had basically eaten winter fruits before and knew what they tasted like.
In contrast to normal fruit, most of these fist-sized winter fruits had a mushy texture. Most importantly, there was no water content at all!
How could they be compared to these two that they were eating right now.
Qiao Mu turned around and saw that Qi Xuanxuan had also made short work of both winter fruits. She couldn’t resist raising an eyebrow.
When did winter fruits, a mere street stall fruit, become so delicious?
When she saw their anticipating gazes, Qiao Mu sighed and stuffed her own winter fruits into the little fatty and Qi Xuanxuan’s hands. “When we leave here, I’ll treat you until you’re satisfied!”
“Right now, focus on dealing with the spiritual beasts…?” Qiao Mu peeked out from behind a rock before quickly ducking back. She then looked at the little fatty and Qi Xuanxuan queerly.
“What’s wrong?” They all asked in unison.
“Four to five more teams have come over there. The mystic beasts have them all surrounded.”
Qi Xuanxuan and the little fatty hastily peeked out for a glance, and their jaws nearly dropped to the ground upon looking.
Heavens!
Were these mystic beasts not blotting the sky and covering the earth?
Mystic beast droves encircled the seven teams at the center in a dense mass as they rushed madly to be the first to attack.
Che Ruman and the others in the encirclement were incredibly despondent.
Che Ruman hadn’t had a chance to catch her breath ever since they had to fight off the mystic beasts in waves. She had originally planned to find an opportunity to slip away alone.
Who would’ve thought that she would lose her chance because of a slight hesitation.
Right now, she was unable to slip away even if she wanted to!
“Qiaoqiao, what should we do now?”
“I’ll go see if there are any spiritual beasts.” Qiao Mu’s face had darkened in displeasure.
These droves of mystic beasts couldn’t be crazy right!
Just a few were fine! Yet several thousand had come…
Wouldn’t this fanfare alarm that divine beast in Zone Two?
Qiao Mu couldn’t help but knit her brows when she thought of that..
