Physical mage, challenge me to a solo duel!

Wang Jiang's flying halberd was exceptionally accurate and ruthless, piercing directly through the heart of the Golden-bodied Fighting Ape.

Roar!

Blood gushed from the Golden-bodied Fighting Ape's mouth. With a roar, it broke free of the light cage's restraints and flung Wang Yi backward.

Wearing heavy black rock armor, Wang Yi was no small figure. The momentum he generated was like a huge boulder. As he charged forward, Wang Jiang had to dodge first. After brushing past Wang Yi, he continued to charge towards the golden-bodied fighting ape.

He dared not forcefully catch Wang Yi; the force would be too great.

Anyway, Wang Yi is tough and resilient, so there shouldn't be any major problems.

Wang Jiang rushed forward, grabbed the halberd shaft, stepped on the golden-bodied fighting ape's lower back, and with a powerful twist, pulled the halberd out, bringing with it a handful of minced flesh and blood.

A huge wound the size of a bowl was immediately left on the chest of the golden-bodied fighting ape, slightly translucent from front to back.

Fortunately, the Golden Body does not have any defensive or protective effects; otherwise, with its defense level further enhanced, the Golden Body Fighting Ape would definitely be considered one of the top magical beasts on land.

Mid-level magical beasts have strong vitality, and despite being severely injured, the golden-bodied fighting ape did not completely die for a while.

However, it was no longer as fierce as before. Its speed and strength had both dropped drastically. After barely holding on for about ten seconds, it was finally beheaded by the king.

"Brother E, Brother E, are you alright? Wake up!"

Before his consciousness completely faded, Wang Yi heard Qi Xiaohao calling out.

At this moment, Wang Yi was lying in the stone pit he had created. His Black Rock Heavy Armor, which was already overburdened, had been completely reduced to rubble and dissipated by the impact.

Wang Yi's injuries were finally revealed.

Bleeding from the mouth and nose, lacerations in the waist and abdomen, extensive contusions and bruises all over the body, muscle strains, and broken bones.

This is what can be seen, but it is also accompanied by unseen internal organ displacement and bleeding.

Because Wang Yi's final healing beam didn't connect to himself, he is now the most seriously injured person on the field.

"Wake him up quickly and let him treat you," Jiang Yue said, his face pale as he stepped forward, clutching his still aching chest.

Qi Xiaohao kept shaking Wang Yi's shoulders, calling out anxiously.

But Wang Yi showed no sign of waking up.

He is too tired.

It wasn't just a simple physical injury; in the past few days, Wang Yi has acted as both a shield charging into battle and a healer saving lives, striving to protect all his teammates.

At this moment, the mental exhaustion, along with the physical injuries, erupted all at once, and he had fallen into a deep coma.

Blood flowed freely, quickly soaking through Wang Yi's still relatively intact clothes, leaving a red stain on the rock.

Seeing that he couldn't wake the unconscious Wang Yi, Jiang Yue decisively shouted to those around him, "Is anyone there?! We've given up! Help!"

The sound echoed through the stone forest.

Two seconds later, Bai Yu appeared in front of them like a ghost, rushed over, pushed Qi Xiaohao aside, and began to check Wang Yi's injuries.

"Just wait!"

Bai Yu's expression was serious. After uttering two words, his figure suddenly disappeared and then instantly reappeared a hundred meters to the left and in front of everyone.

After a few flashes, it completely disappeared into the layers of stone forest.

"Be on guard first," Jiang Yue instructed the others, then climbed a stone tree to observe the surroundings and prevent any more magical beasts from wandering over.

Deep within the stone forest, three figures are battling a demonic beast.

Or rather, one figure is slaughtering monsters, while two other figures are slacking off.

A golden-bodied fighting ape knelt before Ding Lan, who was not particularly tall.

She raised her hand and twisted off the other person's head, letting the blood gush into the sky like a fountain from the broken neck, blooming like flowers.

With a dry blade of grass she'd picked up from who-knows-where dangling from her mouth, Zuo Jinxiu leaned lazily against a stone tree. Seeing this, she clicked her tongue and muttered to herself, "This woman is really violent. No wonder the boss doesn't like her."

Ding Lan tossed the headless corpse of the Golden-bodied Fighting Ape into the pile of demonic beast carcasses beside her, then crushed the skull in her hand, dug out the magic crystal, casually wiped it on her clothes, and turned to Zuo Jinxiu, saying, "We haven't heard from the boss for so long, could something have happened?"

Upon hearing this, Zuo Jinxiu curled her lip: "With those wings, what could possibly happen to the boss in Lingnan Sand Bridge? Even if he encounters a monster he can't defeat, surely he can escape?"

Ding Lan wiped the blood from her face with her sleeve and complained, "Why didn't you absorb the Azure Feather Wind Wings? Otherwise, with you by the boss's side, at least you'd have someone to look after you."

Zuo Jinxiu rolled her eyes.

Yes, I didn't absorb the Azure Feather Wind Wings. Is it because I didn't want to?

Why aren't you with the boss? Is it because you don't want to?

Of course, for her own safety, Zuo Jinxiu did not say those words.

At this moment, Tan Lang, who had been squatting to the side and had little presence, weakly raised his hand: "Um... before the captain left, he told us to look after those students, and now..."

"I'm just looking after them, otherwise why would I be killing so many magical beasts here? Am I just bored out of my mind? I'm just worried that those little brats will get surrounded by magical beasts," Ding Lan said with a sneer.

Tan Lang opened his mouth, but didn't say anything.

He felt that Ding Lan was indeed just bored and that's why she was causing trouble for the monsters here.

Zuo Jinxiu said quietly, "You've let quite a few troublesome people go."

"Isn't this to make it easier for them to gain experience? Otherwise, why don't we let them have a picnic in the Stone Forest?" Ding Lan said matter-of-factly.

Zuo Jinxiu yawned: "But one of them is a mid-level Golden Body Fighting Ape, which is a bit too difficult for them."

Tan Lang corrected him in a low voice: "Two."

"Two? Didn't I only let one over?" Ding Lan scratched her head; she hadn't really paid attention.

Zuo Jinxiu's yawn froze on her face, and she slowly closed her mouth, a panic rising in her heart: "This is bad!"

Hopefully, these little guys won't run into those two golden-bodied fighting apes.

"Be careful!"

At this moment, Ding Lan suddenly spoke up to remind her.

Her skin began to redden, and scorching lava emanated from her body as she hurled the severed head at Zuo Jinxiu.

Tan Lang also suddenly raised his head, his pupils contracted slightly, and fireflies floated around Zuo Jinxiu.

A figure suddenly appeared beside Zuo Jinxiu. Zuo Jinxiu narrowed her eyes, and a sharp dagger appeared in her hand at some point, which she thrust straight at the other person's brow.

Bai Yu turned her head to dodge Zuo Jinxiu's dagger, cutting off a few strands of her hair.

She gripped Zuo Jinxiu's wrist with one hand and held her shoulder with the other, letting out a soft shout:

"Help!"

Immediately afterwards, both figures disappeared.

The shattered head of the golden-bodied fighting ape streaked through the air and flew into the distance.

"Spatial magic?" Ding Lan stared at the two people who had disappeared, stopped casting the spell, and frowned as she swatted out the clothes that had been scalded by the lava.

"Leap." Tan Lang stood up, looked at the few strands of hair that were gradually falling, and waved away the fireflies: "It should be Bai Yu."

"Save them? Could it be... Oh no, this is a huge mess!"

Ding Lan didn't even have time to change into new clothes before rushing towards the students.

Tan Lang silently followed.
