The next morning, almost no one got up early. They all slept until almost noon, then they stretched and got up from the bed one after another.

Boys' dormitory.

Dai Mubai yawned and sat up from the bed, then kicked Oscar to the ground with a puzzled tone.

"Hey, our little ancestor didn't come to torture us today?"

Oscar got up from the ground holding the quilt, scratched his head and pushed Ning Qingzhi.

"Yeah, today was the first time that we were not woken up. You know, you know! Why did you wake up so late today? Do you know why?"

Ning Qingzhi rubbed his eyes and sat up. He had just fallen asleep for a short time, so of course he couldn't get up.

As for Xiaoxiao, she has to go out today, so she usually wants to sleep in.

"She usually wakes up naturally when she goes out today, which is normal."

His voice was a little hoarse and he looked a little dazed.

Not fully awake yet.

Dai Mubai and Oscar looked in his direction and then burst into laughter.

Ning Qingzhi glanced at them in confusion.

The two of them laughed until they were out of breath. They pointed at his eyes and said intermittently: "You know...your eyes! Hahahaha!"

"My eyes? What's wrong?"

He got out of bed and looked for a mirror.

Then, amid the two people's laughter, he saw clearly what he looked like now.

His hair was messy, he had two big dark circles under his eyes, and some shallow marks on his face.

As he watched, he couldn't help laughing.

Was Xiaoxiao controlling me? Her casual action made me toss and turn all night.

There's no hope.

He shook his head somewhat helplessly, and reached out to use treatment to remove the two big dark circles under his eyes.

Then he pinched his nose, picked up the other two people's smelly socks, and shot them accurately into their mouths which were wide open due to laughter.

Dai Mubai and Oscar were suddenly confused, their bodies froze and they didn't move for a long time.

It was not until Ning Qingzhi went out to wash up that the two of them let out a strange cry and rushed to get water to rinse their mouths.

About half an hour later, Flanders shouted that several people who were going to the Star Forest today were ready to set off.

Tang Yanxiao's heart knot was untied last night, and she slept soundly and refreshed. She was in a very good mood and would greet every leaf she saw on the road.

Ning Qingzhi was the first to arrive. She saw his tall and graceful figure from afar and immediately ran towards him with a smile.

Ning Qingzhi had been looking at her for a long time, but she unconsciously thought of what happened last night and her face turned slightly red.

He reached out and hugged Tang Yanxiao who was running towards him, and then turned around twice before putting her down.

Then he ruffled her hair and asked softly, "Have you packed your things for the journey?"

Tang Yan's smile froze on her face. "No... I'm not prepared at all. I forgot..."

Ning Qingzhi was not surprised. He was just asking symbolically. It would be strange if she really prepared it.

"Hey, since you're here, I'll just follow you, hehe~"

Tang Yan smiled and said this heartlessly, then took his hand very naturally and asked, "Where are little Karami and silly Aoao?"

"They are probably still gargling."

"Huh? What kind of precious mouth takes so long to rinse?"

"do not know."

The two were chatting when the real person arrived.

Tang Yan smiled and turned her head to look at the two people's pale lips, and asked with some concern.

"What happened to you two?"

Dai Mubai and Oscar looked up at the same time, looking at Ning Qingzhi resentfully.

"Ask your man! Woohoo—"

"Huh? Do you know what you did to them?"

Ning Qing knew that all the attention was on Tang Yanxiao, so he asked him subconsciously, a blush appeared on the tip of his ears, and he said absent-mindedly.

"I didn't sleep well last night and had dark circles under my eyes. They woke up and laughed at me, so I stuffed their own mouths with their own socks."

When he said this with a hint of grievance, the eyes of the two victims widened.

Is this still the cold-faced and heartless man from this morning? If you don't know him well, you would think he has suffered a great injustice.

But Tang Yanxiao thought so. She immediately stood on tiptoe and rubbed his hair, and glared at the two people whose eyes were as big as copper bells.

"Well done! They deserved it!"

Dai Mubai & Oscar: (*Φ皿Φ*)

"Are you all here? Have you packed your things for the journey?"

Flanders and Zao Wou-Ki came together, and I heard their voices before I saw them.

All four of them nodded.

"Then let's go!"

As soon as the two men came within sight of the four little ones, they turned gracefully and walked out of the academy gate.

Three black lines appeared on the foreheads of the four people, and they all started to chase after him.

The Great Star Forest is located in the southeast of the Balak Kingdom, with a small part bordering the Balak Kingdom.

Soto City itself is also in the southeast of the Balak Kingdom, not far from the Star Forest, less than 500 kilometers away.

With the help of Oscar the Big Sausage, the six of them reached the outskirts of the Star Forest in just one day.

But the scene before them made all six of them freeze in place.

Large tracts of trees were burned, and countless remains of soul beasts were scattered everywhere. The forests that were originally lush with trees and flourishing with flowers and plants turned into large tracts of wasteland with no grass growing.

There are not only corpses of soul beasts, but also corpses of many soul masters and ordinary people.

Their blood flowed into rivers, flowing on the charred land.

Dai Mubai and Oscar, who had never seen such a scene since childhood, felt their stomachs churning and turned their heads to the ground to retch.

The smell of blood in the air was so thick that I wonder how many people and animals had to be killed for the bloody smell to last for so long.

Flanders and Zhao Wuji were also confused. The Star Dou Great Forest is the largest soul beast forest with countless high-level soul beasts. How could this happen?

Could it be that there was a battle between the soul master and the soul beast?

But how could that involve ordinary people? And no soul master would be stupid enough to kill soul beasts indiscriminately.

Soul beasts will not attack soul masters at will.

This kind of scene is more like man-made, and it involves extremely heavy killing, without any purpose, just to satisfy the desires in their hearts.

Judging from the corpses scattered all over the ground, that person is a person who likes to kill people.

Flanders' face was solemn. He and Zhao Wuji looked at each other and checked the corpses that could still be seen around them.

Even the most powerful Soul Emperor fell!

This result made the two of them frown even deeper.

The person who caused all this is at least a powerful being above the Soul Sage level, and it is possible that it was not a single person who committed the crime, but a gang-like riot.

If they were to encounter that group of people with their strength, they would only be doomed to die.

But if he left now and went to another soul beast forest, he didn't know when he would be able to get Oscar's soul ring.

Moreover, the Star Dou Great Forest has the richest variety of soul beasts, which also means that there are more choices for soul rings.

The situation is not necessarily the same in other forests. You may not find a suitable one even if you search the entire forest.

The two fell into deep entanglement.

"Dean, aren't we going in?"

Suddenly, Tang Yan smiled and spoke in the silence.

Flanders and Zhao Wuji suddenly came back to their senses and looked at them with guilt in their eyes.

"I'm afraid we won't be able to enter the Star Forest today."

"What?"

Oscar patted his chest and asked, trying not to feel uncomfortable.

Flanders sighed, "According to my and Mr. Zhao's speculation, there may be a group of criminals in the forest. They are very powerful and like to kill. If we happen to run into them, I'm afraid we won't be able to protect you with our strength.

Of course, wealth and honor come with risk, if you all decide to go in and give it a try, Teacher Zhao and I will do our best to protect you."

Flanders put the decision in their hands.

The four of them were stunned. Even the dean and Teacher Zhao, two Soul Saints, were afraid. Should they still go in?

After a long silence, the four decided to go in and take a look.

As the saying goes, a newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger, and this is exactly what they are saying.

"Dean, let's go in through a detour, and with Xiaoxiao's first soul skill to detect risks, we shouldn't run into them."

Oscar stroked his chin and made a suggestion.

"Yes, Dean, if we stay calm, it shouldn't be a problem. We can't all be unlucky today, right?"

Tang Yanxiao's eyes lit up, and Dai Mubai and Ning Qingzhi beside her also nodded in agreement.

Flanders and Zhao Wuji looked at each other, the sadness in their eyes disappeared, and they regained their previous confident and calm smiles.

Since the little guys are not afraid, the two old guys will accompany them to have a try.

"Then let's go! Let's go!"

The six people avoided the road full of body parts and flesh, and deliberately chose a small path to enter the forest.

During this period, Tang Yanxiao had been using mental detection, and she was aware of any movement within a radius of one kilometer.

The few of them searched for a whole day with great tension, but found nothing.

"Something is wrong. We are almost in the middle of the area, but why haven't we seen any soul beasts?"

Flanders stopped and lowered his eyes in thought.

The others also stopped in their tracks. Tang Yanxiao felt very surprised. They had walked until it was getting dark, but they didn't see a single soul beast.

Even her spiritual detection did not detect any soul beast.

It's so weird.

"Could it be that they were all killed by that gang of criminals?"

Oscar said with a horrified look on his face.

"You may not exist, do you know how many soul beasts there are in the Xingdou Great Forest?

Even if all the Title Douluo in the continent joined forces to kill them, it would take about a month. Even if that group of people were very strong, it would be impossible for so many Title Douluo to be that strong together, right?"

Flanders directly denied his guess.

"Is it possible that they fled to the interior of the Star Dou Great Forest? After all, weak soul beasts will instinctively flee to a place they think is safe when they encounter danger.

There are many ten thousand year old spirit beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest, so it is a place where they can seek shelter.”

Ning Qingzhi, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke up.

Flanders nodded after pondering, "Your guess is more reliable. Alas, it seems that the danger level of our trip is going to skyrocket again."

Bang - bang -

Suddenly, several loud noises resounded throughout the Star Forest, and the earth began to shake.

The six people all turned their heads and looked towards the source of the sound, their expressions becoming serious.
