The news of Bai Xiaoluo entering the Soul Beast Hunting Ground made many of the older students on site tense up.

"Quick... quickly contact the people inside the Soul Beast Hunting Ground and have them keep an eye on which direction Bai Xiaoluo is heading!"

"Got it... someone saw Bai Xiaoluo heading towards the shallows!"

"The shallows? What's he doing there? That's a place for freshmen to train!"

Upon learning that Bai Xiaoluo was heading towards the shallows, many people were left puzzled.

Logically, Bai Xiaoluo, being a Level-4 Martial Artist, shouldn't be going to such a low-level area!

But then someone said,

"Someone saw a freshman following behind Bai Xiaoluo!"

"That seems to be his junior brother!"

"When did he get a junior brother?"

"..."

Immediately, some people recalled an incident that happened after the freshmen started school this year.

"I remember Bai Xiaoluo bragging in front of me that he got a junior brother."

"Yes, I remember too!"

"Hiss..."

Many of the older students on site took a sharp breath!

Damn it!

They had completely forgotten such an important matter!

Bai Xiaoluo's junior brother is the new student of the school's Level-3 Instructor, Hefengjiao, isn't he?

And a few uninformed sophomore students on site asked,

"Senior, is this person really that impressive?"

The older student, hearing this, replied with a bitter smile,

"Impressive is an understatement!"

Everyone at Demon City Martial School knows there are two major tricksters in the school!

The great trickster Hefengjiao and the ultimate trickster Bai Xiaoluo!

Hefengjiao usually only tricks instructors and occasionally her own students.

Bai the Trickster is different; he tricks classmates, seniors, and instructors!

The reason this sophomore student didn't know was simply because Hefengjiao didn't take any students this year.

Among the current sophomore students, only a few with strong abilities have experienced the fear of being dominated by Bai the Trickster.

It's known that the students Hefengjiao takes in are each more of a trickster than the last.

Bai Xiaoluo has taken this "trickster" trait to the extreme!

Now, Hefengjiao has taken in another student.

With a senior brother like Bai the Trickster, the junior brother is likely...

So, the freshmen this year might not have an easy time ahead.

Including the sophomores, and perhaps even the juniors!

As for the seniors... who knows!

Thinking of this, the older student sighed helplessly.

The whole Demon City Martial School is about to get lively again!

...

Meanwhile, Bai Xiaoluo had brought Chen Fan to the shallows.

Along the way, Chen Fan roughly understood the layout of the Soul Beast Hunting Ground.

In general, the entire Soul Beast Hunting Ground is divided into two major areas, east and west.

Chen Fan was currently in the west area.

The entire west area, starting from the entrance of the Soul Beast Hunting Ground, is divided into the buffer zone, shallows, deep zone, and coastal zone.

Among them, the buffer zone belongs to Demon City Martial School's territory, with almost no soul beasts present, making it the safest.

The shallows, after passing through the buffer zone, is a narrow strip sandwiched between the deep zone.

The soul beasts in this area are relatively weak, mostly at levels one or two.

Therefore, this is also the place where freshmen from Demon City Martial School train.

Upon reaching the shallows, Bai Xiaoluo handed Chen Fan an alloy dagger.

Then, he instructed,

"Junior brother, although the soul beasts in the shallows are weak, you must remain vigilant!"

"They are not like the simulated soul beasts in the Soul Beast Forest during the Martial Examination!"

"..."

Hearing Bai Xiaoluo's advice, Chen Fan replied with a serious expression,

"I understand."

Chen Fan naturally wouldn't underestimate real soul beasts!

Seeing this, Bai Xiaoluo smiled and said,

"Don't be so tense, just be cautious!"

After speaking, Bai Xiaoluo patted Chen Fan on the shoulder.

"Go ahead!"

Seeing this, Chen Fan asked,

"Senior brother, what about you?"

Bai Xiaoluo smiled and said,

"I have something to take care of, so I won't be joining you."

"If you encounter a soul beast you can't handle, don't fight it head-on, just run!"

"Also, if I don't come to find you before dark, just head back to school on your own."

After saying this, Bai Xiaoluo left directly.

He believed that with Chen Fan's own strength, he could handle the soul beasts in the shallows.

If he stayed, Chen Fan might develop a dependency and not give his all.

Such training wouldn't be of much use to Chen Fan.

"Junior brother, I hope you understand your senior brother's good intentions!"

Looking back at Chen Fan in the distance, Bai Xiaoluo murmured to himself.

Of course, he would never admit that the reason he left was to find that Level-5 Tiger Jiao!

And Chen Fan was left standing there, feeling bewildered!

Damn, didn't you say yesterday that you'd accompany me for training?

We haven't even started, and you're already bailing, what's the deal with that!

Is the bond between senior and junior brothers even a thing anymore?

Watching Bai Xiaoluo's departing figure, Chen Fan sighed helplessly.

It's one thing for the teacher to be unreliable, but the senior brother too?

"Sigh, in the end, I have to bear it all alone!"

Bai Xiaoluo left, but Chen Fan's training had to continue.

He had no choice; he snuck in over the wall.

To go back, he either had to climb over the wall again or go through the main entrance.

And to go through the main entrance, he had to bring back a Soul Stone!

Gripping the alloy dagger tightly in his hand, Chen Fan began searching for soul beasts.
