Havingbeenchoppedintomincebythreebigaxeshigherthanhimself,YunXiseemedtohavereturnedtothefirsttrialwhenhefirstfacedthegreenhippo,soweakandhelpless.

"Whatattackedme?"YunXiwasmoreconcernedaboutthecauseofdeaththanthedeathitself.

Theenemieswouldreviveafterashorttime,ok,YunXicouldacceptit.Anyway,itwasjustamatteroftimetokillthemagain.

Thekeyswerewheredidtheattackthatpiercedhisbodycomefromandwhotheenemywas?

Recallingthesituationatthattime,YunXipressedhisshoulder,asifthepainstillremainedinhisbody.

Rememberingthepainofbeingchoppedupbyahugeaxelater,thedamagecausedbytheattackwasevenhigher,mainlyduetopsychologicalshadows.

Therealitytoldhimthattheideawasnaive.

Thedifficultyofthistrialwashelllike.Ifoncehewascareless,hewouldbekilledinanybattle.

"Onceagain!"Standingbythebonfire,YunXisteppedonthetwinswordsandheadedtowardstheterribleruinsagain.

Thistime,insteadoftryingtokillthegreenhipposinthefirstarea,heplungeddirectlyfromtheairintotheruinswithcourage,flyingdirectlytothebonfire,whichrepresentedtheonlysafeplaceinthesecondarea.

"Hiss!"

"Hiss!"

"Hiss!"

Theunknownevilwhisperresoundedinhisearagain,andYunXihadthefeelingofbeingstaredatbysomethinginvisibleagain.

"Chi!"Atleast,YunXisawwhatpiercedthroughhisbody.

"Sorry,it’smyfault."YunXitouchedthelittlefellow’shead.Itseemedthatthegreenslimewasseenaspartofhim.Itwasalsorevivedbythebonfireafterhewaschoppedupbytheblackaxemonsters.

Whatgreatfrustration!

ThemonstersinthisruinwerefarstrongerthanYunXihadexpected.ThebattleswiththemmadeYunXifeelthegreatmaliceoftheworldagain.

Especiallytheattacksfromthosesharpthorns,YunXicouldfindnowaytododgethem.Becauseofthem,hecouldn’tcollectmoresouls.

"Attheend,wherewerethethornscomingfrom?Weretheyshotoutbysomeinvisiblemonsters?"YunXifacedsimilardesperationbefore,inthesecondstartrial,YunQue’sarrowskilledhimcountlesstimesonthebridgesheguarded.

Thistime,thekillerwasmoreterriblethanYunQue,becauseYunXicouldn’tseewherethemonsterwasandhowitcameintoplay.

YunXididn’tevenhaveasecondtododgethethornswhenhefoundthem,andthesedamnthornsseemedtobeabletoautomaticallylockonthetarget’sbody.

"Thatistosay,thereareatleasttwokindsofenemiesintheruins."YunXiupdatedthemapbyusingtheinformationheobtainedatthecostofhislife.

Onthemap,thesmallteamsofblackaxemonsterswererepresentedbyforks,thesmallestthree-membersteamswererepresentedbysmallforks,andthelargestfifteen-membersteamswererepresentedbylargeforks.

Theyweren’trandomlydistributedintheruins,thecloserhegottothecenteroftheruins,themoremonsterstherewere.

Itwasalmostimpossibletotrytolurethemallbythrowingpebbles.

"Isthereanythinghere?"YunXicarefullyrecalledthesceneryhehadseenfromtheair.Hewasconvincedthatinthecenterofthecitytherewasanabandonedsquare.Notfarfromthesquareandunderthestepswasthelocationofthesecondbonfire.

"Well,IthinkIcanonlygoandobservethesquareagain."Withasolemnlook,YunXiflewtothesecondareaagain.
