Splitting Up

“The eruption point of the great calamity?” Zhou Mingrui was shocked as well.

“To be precise, it’s one of the eruption points. When the great calamity happens, these eruption points are like ant nests that have been stepped on, and countless monsters will spew out from them.” Yan Wuyue explained.

“Will there be any problems with the freshmen tournament being held here?” Zhou Mingrui inquired.

Although he believed in his own strength and talent, a great calamity was no joke. Once the monster ran out, he might be swallowed instantly.

“It’s not that bad. Someone has studied it. These nodes are in a state of insufficient energy and will not be activated in advance before the time is up”

“Even if thousands of our people were to input all their energy into it, it would be impossible to start it.” Yan Wuyue answered with certainty.

“Then what are you still worried about?” Zhou Mingrui asked, puzzled.

“I have a bad feeling about this, but I can’t tell why.” Yan Wuyue can’t explain it clearly.

“Alright, since you can’t figure it out, then don’t think about it. It’s better to think about how to deal with the tournament.” Zhou Mingrui suggested.

“You’re right. Since we don’t have a clue, let’s solve the problem at hand first. We must get first place in this tournament. The reward is crucial to our next plan.” Yan Wuyue said clearly.

“Of course, but what’s your plan for this tournament? With your personality, you must have a plan already.” Zhou Mingrui raised his brows.

“Finally, you’ve said something decent.” Yan Wuyue smiled.

Following that, she did not wait for Zhou Mingrui to speak. She immediately said, “If we want to succeed, we must act separately.”

Just as Zhou Mingrui was about to speak, he was interrupted. He was a little surprised when he heard this. “Are you sure we should split up in this situation?”

“That’s right. If we want to get a head start, we have to do this. Otherwise, with the strength of those few, it will be even more difficult for us!”

“You and I can use the contract to determine our location, so we don’t have to worry about getting lost. I’ve also prepared a signal device this time. As long as you press the button, your side will light up. I’m allowed to bring this device because it doesn’t have any other function.”

“If you want to gain more benefits, you have to take greater risks, so this is my decision.”

Zhou Mingrui was stunned for a few seconds before he said, “This doesn’t seem like your style.”

Yan Wuyue, however, smiled and said, “What, do you think that you already know me after just a few days?”

Shrugging his shoulders, Zhou Mingrui laughed and said, “Alright, since you’ve confirmed it, we’ll split up. However, we can’t be too far away from each other. Otherwise, it’ll be inconvenient for us to provide timely assistance if something happens to one of us.”

“I’ll say this first, don’t cry and beg me to help you when the time comes.”

Yan Wuyue chuckled and said, “I’m just afraid you’ll be the one to call for my help.”

After confirming their target, the two of them looked at each other and then split up in two different directions.

This scene was noticed by the people who were watching the tournament, and many people were surprised.

The Summoner and summoned spirit dared to split up in the tournament. Even the headmaster, who had hosted many tournaments and was experienced and knowledgeable, could not understand this behavior.

If a Summoner and a summoned spirit were to split up, it didn’t mean that the Summoner would lose their combat power. However, wouldn’t a summoned spirit without a Summoner be like an army without a general?

Although the girl’s summoned spirit was humanoid and should have a certain level of intelligence, without the support of a Summoner, her combat power would be greatly reduced.

The people present didn’t expect that Yan Wuyue’s summoned spirit was actually a transmigrator, not the summoned spirit they had imagined.

After splitting up, Zhou Mingrui chose to head to the right. He looked up and saw a dense forest.

No matter how strong the sunlight was, it could not penetrate the pitch-black forest. Zhou Mingrui, who had just stepped into the forest, felt something amiss.

The density of the energy particles in the air had changed greatly not just the temperature, and the types of magic particles in the air also decreased a lot.

Zhou Mingrui lowered his head and looked at the ground. He realized that the ground was covered in layers of ghastly white bones. It was impossible to tell how thick they were. Just a light touch from his feet would produce a series of cracking sounds.

However, in the face of a scene that would send chills down the spine of an average person, Zhou Mingrui raised his hands, puffed out his chest, and took a deep breath with his useless nose.

“I didn’t expect to have a surprise.”

….

Yan Wuyue walked to the front left, where there was no dense forest, but a grass slope with fewer undulation.

As if sensing something, Yan Wuyue took out pieces of long metal sticks of the same size from the storage ring on her finger.

With a click, she finished assembling a metal spear and held it in her hand.

At this moment, a hole suddenly appeared on the lawn in front of her, and a strong humanoid creature jumped out of it.

“They are indeed goblins, but fortunately, they are all weaker versions.”

Yan Wuyue let out a long breath, and then her face suddenly became serious. Her eyes narrowed, and a sharp aura immediately leaked out.

The countless battle experiences before her rebirth instantly flashed before her eyes. All the muscles in her body began to tremble unconsciously. This was not out of fear but excitement.

Because at this time, Yan Wuyue’s face had a unique “combat smile”.

Yan Wuyue stomped on the ground, leaving a footprint. She rushed out like a sharp arrow toward the goblins.

Although they were only 1.5 meters tall, the goblins were like bodybuilders, with bulging muscles and bulging veins.

The goblins were startled by the human who suddenly rushed toward them, but the next moment, they waved their bone clubs and charged at Yan Wuyue while howling.

As soon as both sides came into contact, Yan Wuyue moved her feet and suddenly moved in a Z-shape formation, making four or five goblins miss their attacks.

At this moment, a cold light suddenly appeared. Yan Wuyue had already thrust her spear forward.

Ow!

The two goblins wailed in pain as blood spurted out from the back of their necks. They fell to the ground, their bodies convulsing.

Yan Wuyue didn’t stop. She twisted her feet again, and the spear in her hand shot out like a snake, stabbing the back of the neck of two goblins again.

The goblin’s fatal weakness was precisely this point. As long as she could pierce the central point of the cervical nerves, she could instantly destroy the combat power of these goblins.

Under the siege of dozens of goblins, Yan Wuyue’s figure kept flashing. She was like a leaf fluttering in the wind. Not a single goblin could touch her.
