Luring a wild beast

"My work is done, now, I will leave" The soldier flew off after seeing that everyone drank the antidote. He was laughing internally at this misfortune of others, he had been through it and knew what that situation was like.

Sometime after the soldier left, Yao Mu and the others who were poisoned looked toward the second student who was not poisoned.

"Your name is Xue Feng, right? I'll remember that someday I'll make you pay for this humiliation. "Yao Mu spoke with a heavy tone and an ugly face, this was his greatest humiliation he had ever suffered.

"I fear that will not happen, moreover, the seniors who asked me to do this. Senior Yao Mu, as you are one of the students who missed the two training camps in the previous two years, they decided to make you pass what they went through before. They thought you wouldn't go camping again, but to their happiness, you came. "Xue Feng said with an amused tone, he felt it was great to see Yao Mu embarrassed.

"You…" Yao Mu was even angrier when he heard that the other veterans had ordered him to be humiliated.

"You two, I congratulate you on passing the training camp test. You have been able to do what few can do, identify poisonous foods from non-poisonous foods, this kind of knowledge is something few have, but it is very necessary.

Every year, a group evaluator is chosen to evaluate the students, and this year I was chosen as the evaluator. I need to say that I am disappointed with this group.

The ununited members, the leader is selfish, nobody knows how to do anything but walk around. This group here is a total waste. "Xue Feng said discouragingly, he revealed himself as the evaluator, this was something he should not do.

"You… !!!" Yao Mu couldn't answer Xue Feng's words, not only because he was criticized, but also because Xue Fang was the evaluator.

"Senior Yao Mu, the day has already dawned, but we are still standing, shouldn't you lead the group and do something? That couple over there already did what they were supposed to do, breakfast, but it's a pity it's just for them. Since none of you deserve the food they took and made. "Xue Feng scoffed at the other members, he realized what was happening during the trip the day before. Yao Mu always tried to harm Liu Yang in some way.

"Fine…" Yao Mu wanted to express his anger over another criticism, but he calmed down and took a deep breath. The other members of the group were also angry and embarrassed by Xue Feng's criticism, but there was nothing they could do about it.

"You three get some firewood, and you two are going to fish some fish in the river. We will not get vegetables again. But before that, let's take a shower. Water Sphere "Yao Mu conjured a car-sized water sphere.

"Come closer to wash" The six students gathered around the sphere before it exploded and the water swallowed everyone around.

"As everyone is already clean, now is the time for each one to do your task" Yao Mu ordered. He was not patient to fish or gather firewood, he was extremely annoyed with the previous situation. Mostly because of the poisoned food.

Sometime later…

The group finished eating breakfast and started walking again.

…

As Xue Feng said earlier, the other eighty groups went through similar situations; those who have already experienced this could not warn other students about the plants. Those who were in the third class but not in this kind of situation were chosen as the group leaders, this was done on purpose.

The leaders who had passed, they were quiet as part of the non-disclosure pact. While leaders who did not go through this situation had to suffer this humiliation.

The eighty-one group had to suffer this humiliation, whether they wanted to or not. But there were also those like Liu Yang and Liu Xia, who knew about some poisonous plants, they would rather be alone or eat something they think is not poisonous.

This situation of humiliation was something every student in the eastern college was obliged to suffer. Regardless of whether it's from a powerful background or not, the instructors didn't care about that, they will make the students suffer a little.

This was for students to learn to be more humble, correct their mistakes, and study more when they were traveling again.

…

Yao Mu's group had been walking for some time, but they didn't know which direction to go or anything. The group seemed to be lost.

The forest was starting to get thicker and the glued trees, after more than a day of walking the forest was getting darker.

"Do any of you have a map or a compass? I want to know where the north is "Yao Mu said, he wanted to know if they were going in the right direction or not.

"I have one. According to the compass, the north is that way. "One of the girls said, she had a compass on her bracelet.

"Let's go in this direction, according to the veterans who attended the previous camp, they said that the exit from this forest is to the north." Yao Mu had contact with former East School students, he asked a few questions about the training camp before. But these veterans did not tell about poisoning by eating poisonous plants.

The group walked for a few more hours, but before they could continue. Yao Mu got serious, he felt that there was something wrong before, they could take detours and avoid finding creatures that live inside the forest. But now, it seems that he failed to detect a creature, and that creature was already close.

"Junior Liu Yang, can your mouse detect anything?" Yao Mu asked anxiously, he didn't know what kind of creature was around, but it was powerful.

"The Little One is sleeping now, but there seems to be a camouflaged creature near us," Liu Yang commented, he would not wake the little mouse, as he did not have the power to detect creatures. Liu Yang used other means to detect whether or not there was anything around him.

"What use is your useless mouse if you can't use it ?? !!!!" Yao Mu was annoyed by what Liu Yang just said, but didn't have time to yell at Liu Yang. He could only concentrate on trying to detect the creature.

"Senior Yao Mu, you won't be able to detect this wild beast, as it has a great camouflage ability that makes it difficult for a water element mage to detect," Liu Yang commented, the creature was tens of feet away from them looking as if they were a group of easy prey to devour. But it was a pity that they discovered the location of the wild beast before they got close.

"As a wind mage, you must have the power to locate the wild beast, right?"

"It's right there, about fifty feet away. I'd say beware because the beast has already found us and is waiting for the right moment to attack. "Liu Yang spoke casually.

"What kind of wild beast?"

"A snake, in terms of its characteristics, I only know that its size is twenty meters and thick as the trunk of that tree. The color or anything else I can't say. "Liu Yang pointed to the big tree ahead. The trunk seemed to need two people with open arms to hug the tree.

"A snake this size ???" Yao Mu became serious, as a member of an influential and powerful clan, he knew a few things about the wild beasts.

One of the characteristics that determined the age of snakes was its size, the larger the size, the older the snake, and the greater its power. Depending on the type of snake, the size varied.

Since Liu Yang did not know the snake's color or some other feature, Yao Mu could not be sure what kind of snake was in place. The only thing they could do is to lure or attack from the front.

"Attention!! We will make a surprise attack on the snake that is camouflaged fifty feet away. We will attack with all our strength from the beginning. I hope no one will hold back. Also, try to aim at the point of the snake, the head. Junior Liu Xia, how do you use the power of darkness, can you stop the snake's movements? While the rest of us attack. "Yao Mu ordered, he understood that the situation was serious, if the snake is a wild beast of rank 2, it will be impossible to defeat the snake without everyone's cooperation.

"It's possible to do that," Liu Xia said nonchalantly. For her, that would be a piece of cake.

"Junior Liu Yang, do you know where the snake's head is?"

"The head is under those bushes over there." Liu Yang pointed to a bunch of green leaves. As a wind mage, Liu Yang used his magical powers to detect the snake. The wind blew slowly around the snake to find its size and hiding place.

That was one of the effects of controlling the power of the element, using it as best the mage could.

"Let's start. Cast your spells, and wait for Junior Liu Xia's signal. "Yao Mu had a solemn look on his face as he looked toward the bush.

Liu Xia waved her hand and dark energy completely covered the area around the bushes and sank the ground. The snake was completely sunk to the floor. Liu Xia did not use her spell but her magic power to attack the snake.

"Now!!! Water Ball !!! "Yao Mu shouted, a large water ball appeared in his hands, he hurled like a baseball.

"Fireball!!!"

"Wind blade !!!"

"Earth Spike!!!"

…

Many screams erupted after Liu Xia acted, the group members attacking the snake's head at the same time.

Booom !!!!!! Booom !!!!!! Booom !!!!!!

Six explosions were heard after the spells hit the targets.

Zzzzzzzzz

The snake began to sizzle with pain as it was struck by the spells and quickly charged toward the group.

The image of the snake was finally shown.

Looking at the snake, Yao Mu showed a serious look, as the situation was worse than he thought.
