Chapter 67

The dark clouds in the sky grew thicker. Although it was still morning, the air was so oppressive that it made it hard to breathe. This was clearly a sign of an impending heavy rain.

The hunting teams, divided into groups, set off for different areas under the guidance of their respective teachers. The areas assigned to each team were spaced at least ten miles apart to ensure fairness and prevent two teams from competing over the same area.

Yu Changzhi was very excited. As the responsible teacher for the middle class B unit, he had the opportunity to participate in such an interesting activity, which was enough to let him boast about it when he returned.

Moreover, the team he led included the genius Wang Junqi, which was truly a stroke of luck. He was very clear about Wang Junqi's combat abilities; she could even capture fierce tigers. What wild beast could possibly pose a challenge to her?

If everything went as planned, their team would achieve the first place, which would make him even more proud.

"Perhaps I can even be promoted to a senior class teacher after this!"

Thinking happily, Yu Changzhi looked up at the sky, which was dark with impending rain.

"What a扫兴的鬼天气 (damned weather)!"

Muttering under his breath, Yu Changzhi ordered everyone to quicken their pace. He did not want to miss this opportunity to stand out due to the rain.

Finally, they arrived at the hunting area. Without waiting for Yu Changzhi's instructions, the children he led had already started their respective tasks. Some set traps, others made ropes, all of them acting with great experience.

"Everyone, pay attention to coordination!"

After shouting this, Yu Changzhi went to rest on the side. As the leading teacher, his duty was to ensure the safety of the children, but he could not interfere with the hunting, as it was a rule of the competition.

"Look, it's a wild boar!"

With a surprised shout, the children who were still searching for targets gathered around. However, before they could even see the situation clearly, Wang Junqi had already caught the wild boar with a "Vine Bind."

The progress was so smooth that even Yu Changzhi was taken aback. He did not expect to have such a quick success upon arriving, and it seemed that the first place would indeed belong to their team.

"Junqi is really amazing!"

Watching Wang Junqi skillfully capture the wild boar, Yu Changzhi's smile was somewhat awkward, as he realized that even if he had acted, he might not have done it so cleanly and efficiently.

This made him realize that geniuses were not something ordinary teachers could teach! He couldn't help but admire Teacher Liu Hong even more!

A little more time passed, and under Wang Junqi's performance as a close-combat mage, many small animals were captured one after another. The other children could only watch in admiration, as they were far too inferior to Wang Junqi in level.

In the entire "Grassroots启蒙 School," apart from Dong Fangxiuzhe, there was probably no other child who could match Wang Junqi.

Yu Changzhi was about to say a few encouraging words when he saw three figures approaching from a distance.

As they got closer, he could see that they were three ugly men dressed in gray.

"What strange people!"

Originally, Yu Changzhi had not intended to pay attention to them, but their sinister laughter made his heart tighten for no reason.

"Are you three here to hunt?" Yu Changzhi walked over and asked tentatively.

This forest was not the private domain of their "Grassroots启蒙 School," and it was not unusual for farmers to come here to hunt.

The three men did not answer but continued to talk among themselves, their arrogant expressions clearly showing that they did not take Yu Changzhi seriously.

"There are so many fair-skinned children, I like them!" One of them licked his withered, branch-like fingers.

"Their screams will be very moving!" Another one followed.

"I miss the feeling of crushing hearts!"

...

Yu Changzhi was not a fool. When he heard their conversation, he immediately sensed something was wrong, especially the unmasked murderous intent in their eyes.

His nerves tightened, and he became cautious.

At this moment, he suddenly remembered the warning from Teacher Liu Hong the day before. Could these three be the "Corpse Devouring Trio"?

Three people, suspicious movements, and a dangerous demeanor—everything matched the description of the "Corpse Devouring Trio" given by Liu Hong!

Yu Changzhi did not know much about the "Corpse Devouring Trio," only that they were very dangerous people who enjoyed killing.

He never thought he would encounter such dangerous characters!

Slowly, he reached into his chest, where a signal bamboo tube was hidden. Yu Changzhi knew he had to inform everyone of this news.

"With my strength, I can probably only hold them off for a while. I hope Teacher Liu Hong sees the signal and comes quickly."

While keeping a cautious eye on the three dangerous men, he took out the signal bamboo tube.

"Now!"

Seeing that none of the three were paying attention to his small movements, Yu Changzhi was overjoyed and reached to activate the signal bamboo tube.

However, he had underestimated the strength of the three men!

With a flash of black, his arms were severed, still tightly gripping the signal bamboo tube!

"Do you think we, the 'Corpse Devouring Trio,' are fools to be tricked by such a small trick!" A sharp, cold laugh sounded from behind Yu Changzhi.

"If that bitch finds out where we are, it will be troublesome!" The Gut Ripper swayed as he walked over.

Blood gushed from the severed arms like two fountains!

The enemies were too powerful, far too powerful!

Yu Changzhi knew that facing these three, he had no chance of survival. Before dying, he had one more thing to do.

"Children—run—fast!"

His heart-wrenching cry broke the silence.

With a look of defiance, Yu Changzhi's head, like a falling apple, separated from his body, and blood sprayed out like blooming flowers.

"Damn, even in death, you still cause us trouble!"

Kicking the head away like a soccer ball, the Corpse Splitter's venomous eyes turned to the children who were frozen in fear.

Wang Junqi's face was pale; this was the first time she had seen such a bloody scene.

After being stunned for five seconds, her hands suddenly formed seals, using the seal magic that Dong Fangxiuzhe had taught her recently.

With a "whoosh," a large ball of earth shot straight into the sky and exploded like fireworks!

She was using her method to warn the other teams.

And this action undoubtedly made her the next target of the "Corpse Devouring Trio"!
