Chapter 333 - Targeting the First Place, Let’s Charge!

“There are so many tunnels, which is then the correct one?”

“We have already been delayed for close to one hour. Let’s hope that the four of them haven’t turned cold yet!”

“Can you not say something so demoralizing?”

The four teachers from Chongde were sprinting through a tunnel. However, this place simply had too many forks, and they would head down the wrong path if they were the slightest bit careless.

As time passed, their hearts grew increasingly heavy.

Right now, a test appeared before them.

Should they take the risk that their students would die and continue to search, or should they seek the observer for help? The moment they asked the observer for help, it would mean that they had given up in this round.

If one gave up on one of the competition rounds, there was no need for them to dream about ascending to the ‘C’ grade anymore. It was already not bad if they could manage to keep their rankings.

The observer simply followed behind them. By not talking, he was causing them to feel great psychological pressure. “Damn!”

The teachers leading the group cursed.

“Be careful, there are spiders ahead.”

The teacher up at the front shouted. With regard to these human-faced spiders, they naturally didn’t fear them given their combat strength. Moreover, with the anger in their hearts, they unleashed their powers and killed the spiders to vent their emotions.

But after killing a few, someone anxiously called out.

“Stop killing. Those are my pets!”

“Can you guys stop?!” “Teacher Miao, boohoo, we finally meet you guys!”

The voices of the students drifted over from the depths of the cave.

The four teachers halted and exchanged glances. (What does ‘my pets’ mean? Were ‘pets’ referring to these spiders?)

The answer was quickly revealed.

Li Ziqi’s group was mounting on the human-faced spiders. They rushed out of the cave and had extremely quick speed.

“What the hell?”

The four teachers were completely stunned. This was especially so when they saw the spider that the big-breasted girl was riding on. It was extremely gigantic and very malevolent-looking. It looked like a BOSS no matter which angle they viewed it from. Now, they really didn’t know what to say.

“Teacher Miao!”

The four students from Chongde ran over. They were really frightened to death. If it wasn’t for the people of the Central Province Academy, they would have already become nutrients for the broodmother.

“Are you guys alright?”

“All of you are students from the Central Province Academy, right?” “How did you find them?”

The teachers were filled with puzzling questions.

“Can the four teachers please leave? Stop conversing with the students, or your school’s participation qualifications will be revoked.”

The observer coldly spoke.

“Quickly leave, quickly leave!”

Zhang Yanzong urged them.

The four students from Chongde wanted to return to their group. They had no way to vent their emotions and could only hurry up and climb back onto the back of their spiders, wiping away their tears.

There was no solution to this. If they split with the Central Province Academy now, they would surely lose their way.

The spiders left, but the four teachers were still stunned.

Wasn’t this a little embarrassing?

Actually, the searching speed of the four teachers could be considered very fast. The broodmother’s cave lay slightly more than a hundred meters ahead. It was a pity that Tantai Yutang’s tracking skills were simply too good.

“The Central Province Academy will most probably rise this year.”

Teacher Miao sighed ruefully.

It was impressive that they could save the victims. But being able to subdue the broodmother and control a spider tribe? This was simply heaven-defying.

“We should inquire about the identities of those students from the Central Province Academy when we head back!”

Teacher Miao was preparing to poach some students.

Outside the human-faced canyon, the two groups were still anxiously waiting. All of a sudden, a student in charge of being the sentry saw a large group of spiders rushing over.

“There’s a situation!”

After the alarm rang, the students immediately ran behind the nearby rocks.

Very soon, a group of large spiders rushed over.

“Zhao Zhi, where are you guys?”

Zhang Yanzong roared.

“Eh, what’s the situation?”

Li Rongguang had a stunned look on his face. Why were the students of the Central Province Academy sitting on the back of these large spiders? Also, why were Liu Yue and the others here as well?

However, he still hurriedly rushed out to meet them.

“Zhao Zhi, quickly come out. We are about to leave!”

Zeng Gang urged, he intentionally raised his voice. At this moment, he felt a sense of superiority when facing the students from Chongde.

(Hmph!)

(Weren’t you guys looking down on our school back then? You all should know who is the rubbish now, right?)

“Boo hoo hoo, you guys are finally back. I was so scared!”

Li Fen ran out.

Lu Qi stood at the back, feeling very awkward. He was truly trash.

The group finally reunited. “What have you guys done?”

Zhao Zhi looked at those large spiders. He wanted to touch them but didn’t dare to.

“Quickly mount them, let’s move out!”

Li Ziqi urged.

“Are you guys sure they won’t bite?”

Li Fen was scared. She didn’t forget how terrifying these human-faced spiders were.

“We are certain!”

Zhang Yanzong sat on a large spider and peered down from a height at Li Rongguang. He clasped his fists. “Everyone, we have also rescued your students. Remember to pay us back for this favor in the future!”

Wu Ran’s group all had embarrassed looks on their faces.

“As it should be!”

Li Rongguang nodded. “In that case, let’s meet again if fate decrees!”

Zhang Yanzong felt a sense of exaltation and satisfaction at this moment. It was truly uplifting

“What have you all experienced?”

Zhao Zhi was curious.

Xu Dingjiang then explained everything. After Zhao Zhi heard it, he felt so much regret that his face turned green. (Why did I stay back and take care of these two fellows? If I went over, it would have become the most important memory of my life. After I graduated, I could boast about this story for half my life.)

Zhao Zhi could clearly feel that the relationship between the fifteen of them in the group was much more harmonious.

“Group Leader Li, you should go and negotiate with them and get them to form an alliance with us.”

Wu Ran suggested.

“That’s right, if we can sit on the large spiders, we would have a chance!”

Liu Yu licked his lips. Although the human-faced spiders were disgusting, they could endure seating on them for the sake of victory. “Have you all forgotten how we rejected them earlier?”

Li Rongguang’s face was stiff. “If you all want to go, you all can do it. I won’t be going!”

After hearing this, the expressions on everyone’s face turned to embarrassment. “Wu Ran, it’s all your fault!” Liu Yu started to blame.

“I…”

Wu Ran was incomparably depressed. (I’m also feeling very helpless. Who would have thought that the Central Province Academy this year would rise up so explosively?)

With the large spiders as mounts, the speed of the Central Province Academy’s student group was much faster than before. In addition, the surrounding ferocious beasts and avian species, poisonous snakes and other bugs, all evaded them when they felt the auras of the human-faced spiders. The group suffered no attacks.

Hence, their path was extremely smooth.

The only problem was that the human-faced spiders showed signs of resistance and struggling when they left the human-faced canyon. After all, leaving their territory caused them to lose their sense of security.

Fortunately, Lu Zhiruo was able to control the broodmother and the broodmother has absolute control over its tribe. This was why the small bout of unrest was quickly suppressed.

In the forest, another new student group was doing their utmost and rushing as they traveled. All of a sudden, the ears of a scout pricked up as he suddenly shouted.

“Everyone be careful, there’s a commotion!”

Everyone hurriedly concealed themselves, but before they could do so properly, they saw a group of large spiders rushing over. “Prepare to fight!”

The group leader shouted.

Clank, clanka

The sound of weapons being unsheathed could be heard.

“They are human-faced spiders!’

The students felt their scalps turning numb.

They had seen these spiders before. For the sake of safely barging through the human-faced canyon, they sought help from their teachers and their rankings got pushed back by three because of this.

“Why would these spiders pursue us all the way here?”

“Let’s run!”

“Outrunning the eight-legged spiders? Are you dreaming?”

The faces of the students were like dead ashes. They couldn’t possibly seek help from their teachers again, right?

At this moment, the spiders neared and some students with sharp eyes saw that some people were sitting on the spiders. “Are we seeing illusions because we are too nervous?”

The group leader frowned.

Shasha- shasha

The abdomens of the spiders brushed against the leaves on the ground, creating a rustling sound.

The army of spiders had arrived. After that, they bypassed the new student group and were roughly over ten meters away. Everyone could now see them clearly.

“What the hell?”

Someone called out. (The mortal enemies we faced actually become the mounts of others? Is there still any logic in this?)

“Does anyone know which school is that new student group from? Are they not too outstanding?”

The group leader’s voice was sharp as though a sharp steel pipe had penetrated his as*hole. His face was filled with disbelief.

“Look at their school insignia, they are from the Central Province Academy!”

After a student spoke out, the entire group fell silent. A few minutes later, curses like ‘Damn!’ rang out. All of them were filled with disappointment, helplessness, as well as admiration. They could only vent their emotions through cursing.

These students finally understood the disparity between them and those strong schools. In an instant, they were so impacted that they lost their battle intent.

Sun Mo’s group of four had no choice but to raise their speed to their limits. They were all so tired that they were panting.

There was no solution to it, or they wouldn’t be able to catch up with the spiders. They were currently feeling pain, as well as happiness.

Ding!

“Congratulations, all your personal students have outstanding performances in their first real battle. You are hereby awarded a time emblem. You can raise any great teacher halos that you possess to the grandmaster-grade!”

As the system’s notification rang out, a time emblem appeared before Sun Mo’s eyes.

“Do you want to use it?”

The system asked.

Sun Mo hesitated. Should he improve Soul Imprint or Encyclopedic Knowledge?

For the former, the range of use would surely not be comparable to the latter. After all, for Encyclopedic Knowledge, he could cast it when the students were learning.

“I’ll upgrade Encyclopedic Knowledge then!”

Sun Mo made his decision.

Ding!

“Congratulations, your great teacher halo ‘Encyclopedic Knowledge’ has been upgraded to the grandmaster-grade. After releasing it, the radius it covers has reached 1,000 meters. The duration of the effect is three days.”

Sun Mo was happy. This time around, his strength had improved again. By casting this great teacher halo, the duration could last for three days. Wouldn’t the students be impressed to the death by him?

Night arrived, the night breeze was cooling.

After they reached the side of a mountain creek, Zhang Yanzong gave the order for them to stop and set up camp. “Ziqi, you should rest!”

Zhang Yanzong knew that Li Ziqi’s physical fitness was weak. Hence, he didn’t get her to do the jobs requiring physical strength.

“Where’s the map, let me take a look!”

Li Ziqi wasn’t polite either. She felt that she had to find a path that would save them the most time so they could maximize this advantage. If this happened before, Zhang Yanzong wouldn’t be so straight-forward. But now, he didn’t ask the reason and directly took out the map and passed it to Li Ziqi.

The little sunny egg sat on a huge rock at the creek’s side and looked at the map. However, a frown gradually creased her eyebrows.

“Why is the map different from the map I saw in the White Dew Building? No, I might have remembered it wrongly!”

Li Ziqi muttered to herself. She didn’t dare to think that the map might be wrong because if she was right, it would mean that everything their group had paid out would be worthless.
