572 Chapter 572 "Without The Dragon Power"

TAP.

Li Shi Ying landed on the bottom of the valley safely as well as the other three, who were clinging on her like koalas.

"You're here?" Long Ao Zhen who had been waiting for quite some time, stood up as he approached Li Shi Ying. When he saw that Shu Chen and Gu Zhong were touching Li Shi Ying, a killing intent flowed out of his body, scaring the boys.

!!

"Wah!" Shu Chen quickly released Li Shi Ying as a cold sweat drenched his back at seeing Long Ao Zhen's murderous glare. Oh God, he forgot that this senior was a really possessive type.

Gu Zhong also quickly released his hand on Li Shi Ying's shoulder. This was the first time he saw Long Ao Zhen mad, and in just a second, he knew he couldn't offend this man.

This man is too dangerous! His gaze alone could kill him on the spot!

"There, there." Li Shi Ying sighed, seeing Long Ao Zhen scaring the others with his overflowing jealousy. Now is not the time to fuss over this, because…

GROWL…..

Right after Li Shi Ying thought so, she and her group heard noises of beasts ringing throughout the valley. It came from many directions, and each of their noises created an echo, making the noises of the beasts amplify by a lot.

"What's this??" Gu Zhong was scared silly when he heard the noises. It was dark down here, and with only a torch for each of them, their range of view was limited to a few meters around them.

He couldn't see any beasts in his eye sight, but from the noises…aren't there a lot of beasts down here?!

"Be careful, there are a lot of beasts here. They're guarding the blood grass for themselves." Long Ao Zhen gripped his torch that he had prepared before tightly. He still remembered the order from the guard before that he couldn't intervene with Li Shi Ying's battle.

He bet that he wasn't allowed to attack any of the beasts too, since that would count as helping others. He also couldn't be allowed to use his dragon aura to scare the beasts away! 

In other words… he could only stand there, watching Li Shi Ying and the others battle the beasts. From what he caught with his senses…there were at least another 50 beasts around them, and half of them were all divine beasts.

Just how the heck did the tournament side give such a dangerous mission for a bunch of students?! They're insane!

Of course, no one knew that the one holding the tournament this time didn't plan to actually hold a tournament. He only wanted to select a disciple along the participants. Thus, such a dangerous test was included too.

"Jiu Wei, be prepared to help me, but don't let the others know. Ask Qi Tou and Di Yu out too." Li Shi Ying gulped her saliva as she watched the darkness in front of her.

She could only see a few meters ahead with light from the torch, and from her eyesight she really didn't see any beasts around.

"Yes mistress." Jiu Wei quickly told Di Yu and Qi Tou to be prepared while Li Shi Ying began to take control of her group.

"Long Ao Zhen won't be able to help us since the guard above forbids him. It will be the four of us alone." Li Shi Ying quickly told the other three about the circumstances, afraid that they would blame Long Ao Zhen for not helping later.

"Huh? What kind of rule is that??" Duan Hui Nan was in disbelief. She thought with the strong-looking man here they would be safe, but the man couldn't help them at all?? Is this a joke??

"If he helps any of us, the one he helped will be eliminated from the tournament right away." Li Shi Ying still looked to her left and right, trying to determine where the beasts were.

In this situation….she and her group needed to use the wall behind as a shield, so no beasts could attack them from behind!

"Damn it." Shu Chen thought the same as Li Shi Ying. He slowly moved backwards to the valley wall as he kept his guard up. He didn't want an unknown beast to attack him from behind. 

"Your highness, let's go to the valley wall to protect our backs." Gu Zhong, noticing Li Shi Ying's and Shu Chen's actions, hurriedly tugged on Duan Hui Nan's sleeves so they could move soon.

In his opinion…the battle would start really soon!

Hearing this, Duan Hui Nan obediently followed Gu Zhong to approach the valley wall. With the four of them having their backs against the wall, they were standing side by side in a row, ready to fight the beasts surrounding them!

AUUUUUU!!

Not long after Li Shi Ying's group was ready, they heard a long howl from a wolf-type beast that they suspected to be the leader of this pack of beasts.

"They're coming!" Li Shi Ying silently summoned her three sacred beasts, before the enemies came attacking her.

SWOSH SWOSH SWOSH!

Three shadows moved silently from Li Shi Ying's contracted space, charging into the darkness without anyone noticing.

The battle is on!
