Chapter 206: 206

206 The Netherworld Tree

For a moment, everyone hesitated and did not retreat immediately. After all, if they were to leave just like that, they would definitely become laughing stocks.

“Hmph, I’d like to see how long you can last!” Seeing this, Li Yuan’s eyes flashed and he grudgingly followed. He wanted to see if Shen Fei could hold on until the next day.

If that was the case, then their efforts today were worth it.

“Li Yuan is right. Let’s rest for a while and see how far that young man can go.” The people from the other academies looked at each other and had no choice but to follow.

…

Midnight soon fell.

Shen Fei had already traveled a distance of about three kilometers. The trees here were thicker and more lush. Not only that, the leaves were like blades.

“It’s so cold!”

“The temperature here is much lower than the outside.”

“Yeah…”

Although they had taken cold resistance pills, the cold still managed to seep into their blood vessels, chilling them to the bone.

“If this continues, we’ll freeze to death!” someone wailed. It was a young man in a blue shirt. There was a hideous scar on his chest, which was obviously left by an attack. His legs showed more evidence of the day’s battles.

“I don’t want to stay here either.” A man beside him smiled bitterly. His body was burly and his muscles bulged as if they were made of steel.

“But we don’t have a choice!” The blue-shirt man sighed.

Li Yuan began to add fuel to the fire.

“Who says we don’t have a choice? I think we can choose not to follow Teacher Shen. We can choose to look for the spirit beast on our own.”

“Right, we can choose not to follow him.”

“Heh, what can I gain by following him?” someone echoed.

“I can’t stand Shen Fei’s arrogant and despotic appearance.”

“Yeah, we’re free to choose!”

Immediately, all kinds of voices rang out.

Shen Fei stopped flying. He turned around and glanced at Li Yuan and the others indifferently. “Are you sure you want to leave?”

“Of course,” Li Yuan said arrogantly. “Shen Fei, I advise you not to force yourself. If you want us to accompany you, you should share your spoils of war.

“Hehe, Shen Fei, weren’t you very powerful just now? Does the thought of us leaving you make you scared?” the other youths mocked.

“Aren’t you guys tired? Then go and rest!”

Shen Fei was too lazy to argue with these idiots. He flicked his sleeves and once again flew forward.

Before Shen Fei could go far, Li Yuan sneered, “Heh! We really don’t want to follow you,” Li Yuan said. He urged everyone to follow him instead, and led the group forward.

“Sigh, I was planning to continue following Teacher Shen.”

“Let’s follow the group. It’s not bad this way anyway. We can train our mental states.” Some of the followers shook their heads.

Even though Shen Fei’s strength was not weak, in their eyes, he was too young. No matter how overpowering he was, how could he hold a candle to Li Yuan and the rest? Thus, they did not risk following Shen Fei, and instead chose to stay with Teacher Yang.

Seeing this, Yang Xiaoxuan frowned and asked, “Teacher Shen, what should we do?”

Shen Fei helplessly shook his head. “Forget it. You take the remaining students and stay here. I’ll keep an eye on Li Yuan and the others.”

Every time, as long as Li Yuan and Xia’er were around, they would definitely find some trouble for him. Shen Fei was getting really tired of it.

“Alright.” Yang Xiaoxuan nodded. “Remember, if you encounter danger, don’t try to be brave. Staying alive is the most important thing,” she warned him before leaving.

Shen Fei chuckled. “Don’t worry.”

…

Meanwhile, Li Yuan and the others continued to move forward. Li Yuan did not believe that he could not handle the dangers here without Shen Fei.

As they flew on, a few students expressed their opinions.

“I think that kid is just so-so. Why don’t we join forces and explore together?”

“Yes, with an expert like you around, we’ll be much safer.”

They were full of admiration for their senior, Li Yuan.

Li Yuan nodded. “Then, let’s explore together.” Everyone agreed at once.

“Haha, that’s good! This way, we can save a lot of effort.” One of the students grinned, showing his white teeth.

Li Yuan, Xia’er, and a few other students continued into the distance.

Shen Fei, on the other hand, was flying toward the forest ahead. The wind blew, and leaves rustled around him.

The fog cast everything in the forest into inky darkness, and it was so dark that it was even hard to see one’s own fingers. In front of the group stood a tall, ancient tree. Its branches stretched out endlessly, reaching into the clouds.

“That’s a netherworld tree?” When they came close, everyone was shocked, then their expressions turned into passionate ones as they gazed upon the tree.

It was a giant tree that grew on the peak of a mountain, and its roots were like tentacles. It emitted an evil fluctuation. On the treetops, there were purple fruits that shone crystal clear like purple jade.

“It’s said that these are all natural treasures. After consuming one, it can transform one’s blood and form profound markings, directly advancing one to an Emperor-tier Beastmaster,” Li Yuan said.

As soon as he said that, everyone became extremely excited and wanted to immediately pick the purple jade fruits. Unfortunately, this tree was three hundred meters tall and had many branches. The trunk was like a coiled dragon, and the roots dug into the ground in such a tangled way that it almost seemed sentient.

It would be extremely difficult to climb up this netherworld tree, unless one had the strength to climb the nearby cliffside instead. In that case, one would have to jump from there over to the netherworld tree.

“Shen Fei! You followed us, after all.” Xia’er laughed coldly.

Looking at Li Yuan and the others who had suddenly pulled out their swords, Shen Fei’s brows twitched as he spoke, “This netherworld tree is very dangerous. All of you should retreat quickly.”

“Since we’re here, why should we leave?” Li Yuan sneered.

For the past few days, Shen Fei’s attitude toward them had made them resentful beyond words. Now that they had the chance to take revenge on him, they were naturally happy to do so.

Beside Li Yuan, Xia’er also sneered, “Shen Fei, you won’t be so lucky this time; this time, you shall die here!”

“Don’t go near this tree,” Shen Fei warned again.

However, how could Li Yuan and Xia’er listen to him? At this moment, they only wanted to quickly get rid of this obstacle—Shen Fei.

“Hehe, Shen Fei, don’t be so stubborn when you’re about to die. Next, I’ll let you see the power of my Silver Snow Tiger.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Yuan summoned the Silver Snow Tiger. The Silver Snow Tiger then quickly charged at Shen Fei.

The Silver Snow Tiger had a slender body and four sharp claws. On top of its head, there was a sharp horn that glinted with a terrifying light.

“Growl!” A deep roar came from the Silver Snow Tiger’s throat.

Immediately afterward, its sharp claws danced, tearing through the air to try and slash at Shen Fei. The power of this slash was astonishing; it was enough to tear a car to pieces. As the claw fell, it stirred up a strong wind, causing the surrounding trees to tremble and the grass to fly.

Feeling that aura, Shen Fei’s eyes narrowed slightly. ‘This guy’s Silver Snow Tiger has actually stepped into the higher Count rank.’

“Shen Fei, I’ll take your life!”

“Kill Shen Fei. Let this brat know who is the core of the team.”

Li Yuan and Xia’er cackled together.
