When system cheat becomes rampant!

Chapter 121 The Swamp



The knowledge Xiang Beifei had gained in high school about this wilderness was very general, just a rough outline, because some people\'s awakened systems were based on the literary Dao. They only acted in all aspects of life and rarely dealt with the wilderness, so to accommodate the majority, high school instruction wasn\'t in-depth. For high school students, having a concept was considered sufficient.

But those who pursued the path of martial cultivation had to truly learn about the wilderness in university and treat it with the utmost priority!

Xiang Beifei thought that he would need some simulated training in university before actually going to the wilderness, but to his surprise, Yuchi Shen, that shameless fellow, had sent him directly to the wilderness without any preparation!

"Is your hatred for my father really that intense?"

He had only met Yuchi Shen for the first time, hardly exchanging a few words before he was thrown here. Yuchi Shen was so eager to get revenge that he couldn\'t wait.

Xiang Beifei looked down and saw his wrist, where the iron ball that had been crushed a moment ago had turned into a strange liquid that wrapped around his wrist, solidifying into a metal ring.

Above him, a small iron ball was flying around him, seemingly assessing him.

He knew that everyone must be watching his every move through this flying ball, wanting to see how he would perform in the wilderness. Yuchi Shen was undoubtedly one of them.

He reconsidered his current situation carefully, within this strange environment, he had to think about all possible occurrences and how to ensure his own safety.

Yuchi Shen hadn\'t told him how to return, only mentioning that he needed to kill a Three Souls Desolate Snake, and that coming back empty-handed would mean failure—implying that even if he couldn\'t kill the Three Souls Desolate Snake, he should still return.

Was there a time limit, like he would be automatically sent back to Liangzhou University after a certain period?

Or could he choose when to return on his own?

Xiang Beifei thought it should be the latter, meaning he could make the choice.

Even if Yuchi Shen was desperate for revenge, he definitely wouldn\'t dare let something happen to him in front of so many people; the way back he left must surely be for preserving life.

Given that, the means of return should be this thing on his wrist.

Xiang Beifei was completely unfamiliar with the item on his wrist, and even with the ability to "Learn by Analogy," the premise was that he had to have studied it first.

He hadn\'t attended a single university course yet, and this thing looked like a tool from the wilderness, a newly developed product; he was clueless about how to use it.

What was more important was—what did the Three Souls Desolate Snake look like?

In the wilderness beyond the domain, there were countless strong and terrifying desolate beasts, too many to count. High school textbooks only listed a fraction of desolate beasts with images, but those were just a drop in the ocean compared to all types of desolate beasts.

For the past two months, he had been focused on cultivating and dealing with the university entrance exam, neglecting to learn about desolate beasts.

The Three Souls Desolate Snake was just an academic name, but what it looked like, Xiang Beifei had no idea.

"This is insane! I\'m given a task, but not told how to return, nor what my target looks like, its habits, or where to find it?"

Xiang Beifei couldn\'t help but grumble.

Lu Zhiwei once said that newcomers must solidify their foundational knowledge before venturing into the wilderness, and if one were to hunt a certain desolate beast, they must fully understand it before acting.

But when Xiang Beifei arrived here for the assessment, he never anticipated that Yuchi Shen would actually send him to the wilderness, and he certainly hadn\'t coincidentally studied the Three Souls Desolate Snake. Yuchi Shen didn\'t offer him an explanation and just forcibly proceeded with the plan.

This opening was like a headless, disoriented pattern.

Actually, Yuchi Shen had originally intended to make Xiang Beifei give up, knowing how difficult it was, because even when he himself was an SR-level genius, during his first mission in the external wilderness, he had spent six months learning, gaining a complete understanding of the target, before teaming up with others to go there.

But even so, he had nearly lost his life!

The real external wilderness was different from simulated training in school. The situation in the wilderness could change in the blink of an eye, and you couldn\'t expect to encounter only the desolate beast you wanted to kill in that area. There could also be other desolate beasts passing by, facing attacks from different beasts simultaneously.

Yuchi Shen couldn\'t even manage that himself; he had sent Xiang Beifei here solely to watch his former rival\'s son embarrass himself in front of everyone, and then tell everyone that Xiang Tianxing\'s son was no big deal!

Xiang Beifei could probably guess Yuchi Shen\'s purpose, but he couldn\'t just go back directly.

He took another look around.

It was eerily quiet, with a rotten smell wafting through the air, extremely pungent, the sound of the swamp bubbling was particularly jarring, leaves rustling as if something was crawling.

"Xiaohei, do you know what a Three Souls Desolate Snake looks like?" Xiang Beifei asked.

Xiaohei shook its head, it was only the system\'s nemesis but not a desolate beast\'s nemesis. It hadn\'t prepared for Desolate Beast Studies before coming here.

This was troublesome.

Crack!

As Xiang Beifei pondered, suddenly a sound of a snapping twig came from the woods. He became alert immediately, leaping beside the tree trunk, concealing his figure behind it.

Hiss! Hiss!

It sounded like something was swallowing.

Could this sound be the Three Souls Desolate Snake?

Thinking of Yuchi Shen sending him to catch a Three Souls Desolate Snake, perhaps he was directly transported to its lair; maybe this swamp was hiding the Three Souls Desolate Snake.

That would make things easier, no need to go through a lot of trouble to find it.

Xiang Beifei peered through the cracks of the tree branches towards the source of the noise, trying to track the Three Souls Desolate Snake.

Splash!

It seemed like something had broken through the water in the swamp and was crawling on the ground, but from this position, he couldn\'t see the swamp clearly due to the obstructed view.

He carefully moved his body, stepping over the damp moss underfoot, while applying his Spiritual Power to the soles of his feet, firmly gripping the ground to avoid accidentally stepping on stones or brittle branches, making noise that would alarm the other party—that would really be mindless.

However, just as he was about to peek his head out from behind the branches, a sharp eagle\'s cry suddenly came from the sky. Then something huge seemed to be flapping its wings, rustling as it whooshed over the treetops above.

"Roar!"

A fierce roar suddenly sounded at the edge of the swamp. Whatever had just crawled out from the swamp seemed to be enraged by the large bird flying overhead, and with a swift motion, it dashed out.

By the time Xiang Beifei stuck his head out, the swamp was quiet again, and he saw nothing.
