Everybody was ecstatic, so they quickened their digging pace.
As the light was just before them, everybody had high fighting spirit.
At its master’s urging, the tunneling rat spared no effort in pushing the rubble in front of it to the sides.
Everybody moved rapidly, and they even started using their treasured spiritual weapons as digging tools…
With a final thud, the last boulder blocking the way got unearthed.
Zhou Danjin crouched down and was the first to pop out from the tunnel. He looked up at the sunlight streaming through the leaves and laughed heartily. “We’re out, we’re out!”
He jumped up onto a branch with a swish.
Following on his heels were Wei Xu, the little fatty, Qi Xuanxuan, and the others.
Everybody popped out from the opening one after another. They all took a deep breath and exchanged glances.
My goodness, they finally made it out of that bleak hole after so many days.
Zhou Danjin tried to see if he could open his inner world, and he couldn’t help furrowing his brows. “We should leave this Mount Tai as soon as possible.”
Everybody naturally nodded in agreement, and they all scolded the scoundrel that had planned these preliminaries in their minds.
If Polan Prefecture’s Godsend Academy didn’t insist on such a “novel” way of carrying out the mass selection for the preliminaries, how would there be so much trouble!
Some of their students had even lost their lives here!
Godsend Academy was simply shameless!
Thinking about it now, they just wanted to gather everybody’s strength to deal with the zombies on the mountain behind their academy as soon as possible!
“Roar—” A raspy roar came from the side, and a face with rotting flesh abruptly appeared before the little fatty’s eyes.
“Mamma mia!” The little fatty lifted up his double-headed hammer that was still covered in dirt and clobbered it down on the zombie, which had pounced over at him at an angle.
Everybody jumped in fright. They hastily pummeled that unlucky zombie with countless spiritual energy attacks as if their lives depended on it. It ended up getting pulverized to bits.
Everybody examined the surroundings vigilantly, but did not discover any other zombies.
It seemed like this zombie had just slipped through the net.
Zhou Danjin let out a sigh of relief. “It’s not suitable to advance using flying spiritual beasts in this dense forest. Let’s summon our spiritual beasts after we leave this area.”
“Let’s get a move on! We don’t know whether there are any other dangers here. It won’t be too late for us to rest after we get out of here,” another mentor added.
“Okay!” Everybody nodded as a matter of course. They hastily chased after their mentors to get out of Mount Tai.
*Swish, swish!*
However, before they could walk far, two shadows suddenly landed in front of everybody.
Zhou Danjin and company jolted in fright, and they hastily prepared for battle.
After Zhou Danjin and company discovered that it was the two elders from earlier who were proctoring the exam, they eased up.
Wei Xu went up and cupped his hands. “Did you happen to be waiting for us here.”
One of the black-clothed elders nodded with a gratified smile. “We were missing just your group. We have been waiting here for you for a long time. Will everyone now please follow me to the nearby Godsend Academy to rest and recharge.”
Wei Xu let out a sigh of relief and gave his thanks. “Thank you. After you.”
“It’s been hard on you all.” The two elders nodded and turned around to lead everybody out.
