There was a deep pool not far from the grass. Under the sunlight, the calm water of the deep pool sparkled and looked harmless.

Listening carefully, the beautiful singing came from the depths of the deep pool.

“This voice, it’s obvious that she’s a peerless beauty! She must have called us over!”

At this moment, a man’s voice suddenly came from their right. Then, three or two men rushed out of the forest and came here.

The men were equally surprised to see them. The two groups met each other’s eyes and were stunned for a moment.

“You were also driven here by demon beasts?” Shen Yaowei looked at the men and made a bold guess.

“You too?” the oldest man among them asked, stepping forward.

Shen Yaowei nodded and saw more contestants rush out of the surrounding bushes.

Soon, almost a hundred people came to the originally empty grassland.

Seeing that almost all the testers who had entered the forest were gathered here, Shen Yaowei frowned and pondered. There was a rustling sound behind her.

Shen Yaowei turned around and looked warily. She was surprised to see a group of disciples from the Imperial Preceptor’s residence dressed in white.

“Wan Yue… Ahem, Miss Shen, it’s been a long time.” Yao Qingyi was the leader of this group of disciples. When he saw Shen Yaowei, his eyes lit up. Then, he immediately realized that something was wrong and avoided her gaze.

Compared to his unnatural expression, Shen Yaowei’s eyes were very calm. “Hello, Young Master Yao.”

Yao Qingyi quickly went forward with the people behind him. He looked at the people around him and then at Shen Yaowei. Suddenly, he felt a cold gaze.

This person’s eyes were really too cold, making Yao Qingyi involuntarily shiver. He subconsciously looked at Gang Ye.

He looked up and met Cang Ye’s calm eyes. Yao Qingyi realized that this young man’s eyes were like a deep pool of ice. It actually made her feel waves of fear from the depths of her soul.

“Miss Shen, why are you gathered here?” Yao Qingyi took the initiative to avoid the young man’s eyes.

“Like you, we were also driven here by demon beasts.” Shen Yaowei sized up the disciples of the Imperial Preceptor’s residence, including Yao Qingyi. Seeing that they all had wounds left by demon beasts, it wasn’t difficult to guess that these people must have suffered the same fate as them.

“How strange. What are these demon beasts trying to do?” Yao Qingyi frowned and asked in confusion.

“We should be the ones asking your Imperial Preceptor’s residence about this.” Cang Ye’s clear voice echoed in the air. His voice wasn’t loud, but it was enough to reach everyone’s ears.

As soon as he said this, everyone’s gazes swept over him.

For a moment, the entire place was silent. Only Yao Qingyi and the people from the Imperial Preceptor’s residence felt immense pressure.

“The Misty Forest is a test location set by the Imperial Preceptor’s residence. The demon beasts here went berserk and injured people. It’s not a danger we should be in. Now, the people from your Imperial Preceptor’s residence are asking us about the situation instead. Could it be that they plan to let us work together and bring you out of the predicament?” Cang Ye’s words were sharp, not giving Yao Qingyi any face at all.

Yao Qingyi was a little anxious after being mocked like this. “That’s naturally not what I meant! It happened suddenly, and we don’t know what happened. But everyone, don’t worry. We’ll definitely bring you out of danger.”

“How can you protect us? By talking?” Cang Ye sneered..
