The red light seed like a teor with a long crimson tail, piercing through two Shadow Blade Leopards behind Liu Wentao with a single strike, continuing into the distant forest with an imnse shockwave and fire.
BOOM!!!!!!
The two Shadow Blade Leopards appeared to have been struck at a critical point, their attacking motions froze, then they slowly collapsed.
Liu Wentao and the remaining Shadow Blade Leopard were both stunned on the spot.
A second later, the second red light arrived as expected, like a light spear of judgnt, striking the Shadow Blade Leopard facing Liu Wentao head-on, embedding into its flesh and exploding into pieces.
He was caught in the aftershock, blown back several ters, landing on the ground with his mind nearly blanked, but instinct forced Liu Wentao to slowly turn his head towards the direction from which the red light ca.
In the pitch-black forest shrouded in black mist, three figures slowly erged.
One was a silver-haired beautiful maiden with black and red demon horns, holding a rough hand cannon that disintegrated into golden particles, another was a little blonde girl with fox ears and a tail, seemingly only twelve or thirteen years old.
Leading them was a boy with plain glasses and a handso face, a face that was quite familiar to him.
"Lin... Lin Guang!"
Liu Wentao, slumped on the ground, trembled with his lips, and seeing the maiden put down her weapon, finally felt a release of tension.
He certainly knew Lin Guang.
The attention towards geniuses like Spirit Masters in this world far exceeded that of so-called boy bands.
On top of that, Lin Guang himself had a very high level of attractiveness, naturally enjoying high online popularity.
But never did Liu Wentao expect that Lin Guang's contractual partner would instantly kill three Tier Two Shadow Blade Leopards, which were Blue Elite Level magical beasts!
How could he be so strong?!
...Right.
Liu Wentao suddenly realized—he was saved by him.
In theory, eliminating other examinees could earn points, and given the situation just now, Lin Guang could just use that skill again to get rid of him easily.
But if he didn't do it, was it for...
Looking at the handso boy approaching him, Liu Wentao felt bitter but still reached for his backpack—inside were his food and water.
Liu Wentao spoke a bit dryly: "If it's for supplies, I... I still have so left here..."
In response, the silver-haired maiden gave him a slightly disdainful look.
Only then did Liu Wentao notice that her left hand was holding a bottle, with the cap nowhere to be found, and the liquid with bubbles and starlight had already been half drunk.
At this mont, seeing Liu Wentao's clumsy gesture of goodwill, she directly averted her gaze, finished the rest in one gulp, tossed the bottle aside, and then, without any ladylike deanor, burped and reached towards Lin Guang.
Lin Guang handed her another bottle.
That expression seed to say...
Who cares about your scraps.
This action made Liu Wentao's eyes widen.
That packaging, it was clearly Refreshing Soda!
This thing was considered a Tier One potion, but in terms of taste, it was closer to a beverage, with effects not only quenching thirst but also quickly restoring physical strength and replenishing consud ether, selling at a steep price outside, and being a luxury among luxuries in the Demon Qi Secret Realm.
From the blue treasure box guarded by a Blue Elite Level potential magical beast he opened before, there was only one bottle.
His lips were cracking, he didn't drink it himself, and gave it to the injured Flaming Celestial Ox.
Only now did he realize.
The three of them didn't carry backpacks!
Where did Lin Guang retrieve it from just now?
He looked dumbfoundedly down at Lin Guang's hand—wearing a ring that was rely a Low Tier Spatial Spiritual Artifact.
But it obviously wasn't brought from outside.
Then there was only one possibility... it was opened from a box.
But just how strong of a magical beast could guard a box containing a spatial spiritual artifact?
And how many boxes full of supplies had Lin Guang opened?
After a mont of daze, Liu Wentao snapped back to reality, glanced at his arms covered in dirt and dust, and then looked at the three, as if they had just co out of a bath, finally understanding, and gave a bitter smile.
For a genius like Lin Guang, the unified exam was just a process he had to go through before "receiving his award", he ca to the Demon Qi Secret Realm just to rack up points.
By simply killing every enemy he encountered, supplies would naturally never be lacking.
There was even enough water to spare for washing up.
Ridiculous that just a mont ago, he worried about Lin Guang possibly targeting him for his food and water.
While Liu Wentao was mocking himself inwardly, Lin Guang walked up to him, stopped, pointed in a direction, and calmly said:
"Go down the mountain in that direction, I've cleared it, there's a ruined town at the foot of the mountain, staying for two days shouldn't be a problem, and if you have running shoes, walking a few kiloters of mountain road shouldn't be too difficult."
"Huh?" Liu Wentao's mouth dropped open, "You're not going to take my points?"
Lin Guang smiled cryptically: "If you're willing to give your points, I'd be more than happy to take them."
"Uh, no need, no need."
Perhaps never having considered this scenario, Liu Wentao's mind was sowhat frozen, struggling for a while before finally spitting out a "thank you".
"Let's part ways then."
Lin Guang nodded, taking the fox-eared girl along as they continued forward.
The silver-haired maiden gave him a regretful glance, as if abandoning so precious prey.
Watching the three disappear into the dark forest, Liu Wentao finally retracted his gaze of gratitude and admiration, got up from the ground, and ran in the direction Lin Guang had indicated.
He could only hear a few words in a language he couldn't understand, mixed with Lin Guang's Daxia language slowly fading away.
"When will there be a real challenge?"
"It's probably at the summit."
"That's still quite far."
"Don't rush, there will definitely be worthy opponents behind."
...
Liu Wentao's heart was imnsely stirred, yet to Lin Guang, it felt utterly mundane.
This was already the second examinee he had saved; previously, Lin Guang had also rescued an examinee on the brink of being eliminated from the "hands" of several Tier Two Giant-mouthed Earthworms.
For Lin Guang, as long as the other party hadn't offended him and maintained a good attitude after being rescued, he was too lazy to make a move.
Firstly, these people had limited strength, with points that were already not much, and a re tenth would be even less, leaving them would not pose competition for him;
Another point is that eliminating examinees can only earn ten percent of their points, but the eliminated side would lose thirty percent.
He didn't mind selling these people a favor.
"So boring."
Walking through the forest, Vishdair let out a deep yawn, "When will we encounter that arrogant master?"
"It shouldn't be far."
Lin Guang looked towards the high mountain in the distance, his gaze deep.
