Early morning on the seventh day.
Han Feng and his party of six were moving forward and had eliminated eleven teams in a row along the way.
Now Han Feng alone has gained more than 2,000 points, and in exchange for merit points, he has nearly 700 merit points.
The other six people each have nearly a thousand points, and their respective values have increased several times. It can be said that they have made a fortune!
At this moment, they were finally about to enter the core area of the trial ground.
However, what surprised everyone was that after approaching the core area.
No other teams were encountered nearby, and even monsters and elixirs were extremely rare.
Han Feng was confused and continued to move forward with the five people.
After walking for half an hour, there was sudden movement in the dense forest ahead, and vaguely, something was quickly approaching in the direction of the team.
As soon as Han Feng raised his hand, the five people behind him immediately stopped and held their breath.
Han Feng, on the other hand, clenched the spear in his hand and stared ahead, ready to take action at any time.
The sound in front was getting closer and closer, but Han Feng faintly heard that someone seemed to be calling for help, and the voice sounded familiar.
While Han Feng was hesitating, the dense forest ahead turned over and a figure staggered out.
Everyone was stunned when they saw this figure.
Because in front of him was a naked young man wearing only a pair of underpants.
The young man was now gray-faced, with disheveled hair and scars all over his body, as if he had just escaped from a refugee camp.
He ran forward in panic, shouting "Help".
Just as he jumped out of the weeds and ran a few steps, a black shadow followed him and it turned out to be a gray-black demon wolf.
Looking at its aura, it turned out to be a Chen-level one-star monster.
It's eyes were red, staring at the naked young man, and it was chasing after him like crazy!
Han Feng couldn't help but be slightly startled when he suddenly saw this scene.
However, when he took a closer look at the young man's appearance, he couldn't help but let out a cry of surprise.
“Nothing can be exchanged for gold!”
He didn't have time to think about why the other party looked like this. When he saw the demon wolf leaping up, he was about to throw Jin Buhuan to the ground.
Han Feng swiped the spear in his hand, and a bloody spear shot out, directly hitting the belly of the leaping demon wolf.
"boom……!"
The shadow of the gun pierced the belly of the giant wolf, causing blood to fly everywhere, sending it flying backwards.
The demon wolf fell to the ground wailing, glanced at Han Feng in horror, and then fled into the jungle dragging its seriously injured body.
Han Feng did not pursue him, but instead stepped in front of the young man and held him up.
"Brother Jin, what's wrong with you?"
But at this moment, Jin Buhuan staggered, and after being supported by Han Feng, he was still yelling randomly.
After Han Feng called a few more times, the other party gradually regained consciousness.
He raised his eyes to look at Han Feng. His eyes were a little confused at first, but then surprise and excitement gradually emerged, and he shouted in a trembling voice.
"Han...Brother Han!"
Jin Buhuan shouted excitedly, with tears in his eyes, and he opened his hands and rushed towards Han Feng's arms.
Looking at the opponent's naked body covered with mud, Han Feng quickly moved the gun in his hand to distance him from him.
"What happened? How did you end up like this? Where is your "Wolf Team"?"
Han Feng remembered that before entering the trial field, Jin Buhuan brought his team to show off in front of him, threatening to win the first place in the team competition and becoming popular among thousands of girls in the academy.
But looking at the situation in front of him, it was obvious that something unexpected had happened.
Hearing Han Feng mention the words "Wolf Team", Jin Buhuan's grievance, which had gradually subsided, suddenly got out of control again, crying with tears in his eyes.
"It's over, it's all over...Except for me, everyone else in the Wolf Team has been eliminated...Woo!"
Seeing that the other party's mood was extremely unstable and his breath was a little weak, Han Feng decided to find a place to settle down first.
Everyone found a place with a stream and took a rest.
Han Feng asked Jin Bu to take a healing elixir, eat some dry food, and let him wash himself in the stream and put on some clothes.
As a result, Jin Buhuan was no different from usual except that his face was pale and his expression was slightly haggard.
Seeing that the other party's condition was stable, Han Feng asked again about Jin Buhuan's experience after entering the trial field.
When Jin Buhuan mentioned this, he burst into tears and started crying to Han Feng.
It turns out that Jin Buhuan's current cultivation level is no longer what it used to be.
Relying on the talent of the top-grade golden spirit vein, he has now entered the realm of Chen level and has broken through to the second level of Chen level.
Among the seven members who formed a team with him, there were also six Chen-level experts.
Such a lineup is already extremely strong among the teams in the trial competition.
Therefore, after the Wolf Team entered the trial field, Jin Buhuan was determined to make a name for himself. He led his teammates and followed the first group of troops all the way, and quickly advanced into the core area of the trial ground.
Along the way, they killed monsters, collected elixirs, and eliminated other teams, earning a lot of points.
Just when Jin Buhuan and others were confident, they believed that the Wolf Team would be able to win the championship in one fell swoop.
However, they met their nemesis, "Lu Yun'er" and "Nangong Qi".
Hearing the two names here, Han Feng felt vaguely familiar.
After being reminded by Jin Buhuan, he said the words "Goddess List".
Han Feng recalled that he had seen these two women on the goddess list not long ago on the second floor of the college.
The two girls are not only beautiful in appearance, but also come from seven major families in Xichuan Province and have profound backgrounds.
Lu Yun'er was also in the first class, and she was considered the most senior senior.
Han Feng asked doubtfully: "Were you eliminated by them?"
Jin Buhuan nodded with a grimace.
"Why are they eliminating you?"
"Well……"
Jin Buhuan suddenly looked embarrassed and his eyes were a little evasive.
Han Feng frowned, and after repeated questioning, Jin Buhuan told the truth.
It turned out that the team formed by Lu Yun'er and Nangong Qi were all female disciples, and all of them were of extraordinary beauty.
This is nothing special for other teams.
But for Jin Buhuan and his "carefully selected" members of the Wolf Team.
This is simply a fatal temptation!
But the two women were both among the junior disciples, top-notch and famous, and extremely intimidating.
The members of the Wolf Team did not dare to openly talk to or get close to each other. For a moment, they felt quite helpless.
But at this time, a member of the team suggested that he might as well imitate the literati and poets in "stealing jade and fragrance".
Sneak into the residences of the two teams at night and steal their underwear.
Such a "beast" proposal immediately received unanimous approval from the majority of beasts.
Subsequently, under the leadership of captain Jin Buhuan, a massive incense-stealing operation began.
The team members attacked in two groups, with captain Jin Buhuan sitting at the base camp, waiting for their triumphant return.
When Jin Buhuan recalled the scene when his teammates succeeded and brought back rich "trophies", a knowing smile could not help but appear on the corner of his mouth.
But the Wolf Team's joy did not last long, just as they were preparing to divide the spoils.
The door of the cave where they stayed overnight was blasted open.
Jin Buhuan could never forget his dream. He was holding a pile of colorful clothes in his arms and laughing heartily.
Just outside the cave door, there were more than a dozen angry eyes and death stares.
It turned out that Lu Yun'er and Nangong Qi actually discovered their actions and found their base overnight. Everyone got the stolen goods.
That night became a nightmare for Team Wolf.
Lu Yun'er and Nangong Qi led the team members and rushed in mercilessly, beating anyone they saw, and beating them to death.
Jin Buhuan saw with his own eyes that his teammates were beaten until they fainted, then woke up again, and then continued to beat them unconscious...
Overnight, the Wolf Team was almost wiped out.
Jin Buhuan also received countless punches and kicked, fought for his life, and only escaped from the siege by relying on his strong body skills.
But even so, he was still chased and chopped down by the opponent with a sword.
In the end, although Jin Buhuan managed to escape and ascend to heaven, he also exhausted his spiritual power. Even his clothes were stripped off and he almost fled naked. Even the jade identity charm was lost.
Afterwards, Jin Buhuan no longer dared to go back and could only continue walking to the outside of the trial ground.
As a result, he was unlucky and met the demon wolf again. With his spiritual power exhausted, he had no power to resist. He lost the jade talisman and had no way to seek help, so he could only run away.
Fortunately, he met Han Feng and was saved.
After listening to Jin Buhuan's story, Han Feng's expression couldn't help but become dull.
I secretly sighed in my heart, this guy is really a damn talent, he was able to do such weird things as "stealing jade and fragrance" on the trial field, and he almost lost his life because of it.
It's no wonder that the demon wolf wanted to chase him. He probably felt that Jin Buhuan had tarnished the reputation of the "wolf" clan.
Shaking his head speechlessly, Han Feng couldn't help but wonder.
"You are in the core area of the trial field, why are you so idle?"
In Han Feng's opinion, the core area of the trial ground should be filled with endless battles and dangers.
How could these guys be idle and still have time to commit suicide?
Jin Buhuan sighed.
"Brother Han, you don't know something. The competition in the core area was indeed fierce at the beginning. There are many rare elixirs and high-level monsters.
But the scope of the core area is too small, and our vanguard troops have long since captured them all. Now the elixirs and monsters in this area are the rarest.
Most of these "vanguard troops" are not weak in strength, and there is no guarantee that they can defeat each other.
Moreover, you also have to be careful of other teams stabbing you in the back, so there are very few fights between them. "
Hearing this, Han Feng couldn't help but frown. He didn't expect that the core area would be like this.
he asked again.
"Since there are no resources in the core area, why do those teams continue to stay there?"
After hearing this, Jin Buhuan became energetic and said with stern eyes.
"Brother Han, don't you know that a three-hundred-year-old elixir appears in the core area?"
"What!"
Upon hearing this, Han Feng couldn't help but be surprised.
After reading the book that Dugu Nianxue gave to him, Han Feng also gained some understanding of elixirs and knew that the growth of elixirs was extremely slow and difficult.
There have always been sayings of "a small pass in ten years", "a middle pass in fifty years" and "a major pass in a hundred years".
Even if the elixir grows for five hundred years, it will still be baptized by "sky thunder".
Therefore, although the difference in years between two hundred and three hundred year old elixirs is only one hundred years, their efficacy and spiritual power are completely different.
You know, a two-hundred-year-old elixir can only be exchanged for two hundred points, but a three-hundred-year-old elixir can be directly exchanged for two thousand points, which is ten times the former.
It stands to reason that elixirs of this vintage would only appear deeper in the Beiyuan Forest and in areas with richer spiritual energy, and would be basically impossible to appear in the trial competition.
That's why Han Feng was so shocked by the news about Jin Buhuan.
After careful questioning, Jin Buhuan recounted the matter in detail.
It turned out that in the core area, everyone discovered a "Three-leaf Green Zhi" that had grown for three hundred years. This elixir was not yet mature, but it was on the verge of maturity. It was estimated that it would be fully mature in the next two days.
A three-hundred-year-old elixir can be exchanged for two thousand points. For many teams, this is a "huge sum of money" and can even directly determine the team's ranking.
What's more, now that all the resources in the core area have been plundered, this is the largest resource.
Therefore, many teams are pursuing the idea of this three-leaf green zhi.
But in the canyon where the three-leaf green zhi grows, there are three monsters guarding it, all with peak Chen-level strength.
Even among the strong teams among these junior disciples, no team has the strength to deal with them.
For a time, these teams gathered near the canyon, looking for opportunities.
…
After listening to Jin Buhuan's story, Han Feng secretly shook his head.
The strength of the three Chen-level peak monsters is indeed difficult for these junior disciples to contend with.
Jin Buhuan also sighed.
"These three monsters are really powerful. Even Murong Cheng almost lost his life when he tried to get close to the elixir."
"Um……?"
Han Feng was stunned when he heard this.
"Are you talking about Murong Cheng from Class 1?"
Jin Buhuan said in surprise.
"Hey...Brother Han, do you know him too?
Also, this guy is very famous among the junior disciples. Many people say that he is the "number one" among the junior disciples. "
As he said that, Jin Buhuan was a little gloating.
"Hehe... That Trifoliate Green Zhi plant was actually the first one discovered by Murong Cheng and his team.
This guy wanted to move the Sanye Qingzhi away in advance, so he sneaked into the canyon relying on the strength of his team.
However, they were discovered by the three monsters and fled for their lives in a hurry. Murong Cheng was seriously injured as a result. It is said that they have now withdrawn from the core area. "
Hearing the news, Han Feng couldn't help but be a little surprised.
He thought he would be able to see Murong Cheng when he entered the core area, but he did not expect that the other party was seriously injured by the monster and left early.
After grasping the current situation in the core area, Han Feng thought for a while and finally decided to rush directly to the canyon where the three-leaf green zhi grew.
Trials are almost the fastest and easiest place for junior disciples to obtain merit points.
Now that he and the Murong family are in a confrontational situation, he naturally wants to take the opportunity to earn more merit points and accumulate cultivation resources for himself.
This three-leaf green zhi is worth two thousand points, so I have to fight for it no matter what.
Naturally, everyone in the team is absolutely convinced of Han Feng's decision.
And traveling together, there is still money that cannot be exchanged.
Although he heard that he was going back to the canyon, he was still a little scared, fearing that he would encounter those two tough "women's troops" again.
But he was not willing to get nothing, so he finally found his storage bag and identity jade charm.
Ever since, the seven-member team set off again, aiming directly at the canyon in the core area!
