As the first cultivator fled into the distance, many others followed suit, escaping from the onslaught of the beasts. They could no longer withstand the relentless attacks, as the beasts' endurance surpassed their own. With such a vast number of beasts attacking simultaneously, they were overwhelmed, feeling their spiritual energy rapidly depleting. Faced with a dead end, they had only one choice.
Compared to the other cultivators, those from the three major dynasties held out a bit longer. Their strength was already beyond that of ordinary cultivators. Yu Junfei and Cheng Hefeng continued to slay the beasts before them, their speed not lacking considering their abilities. However, the sheer quantity of beasts made it impossible for them to eliminate them all in a short time.
"Why are these beasts attacking us like mad?" Yu Junfei's face showed bewilderment. He believed that everything happened for a reason, and they couldn't be randomly targeted by these beasts.
"I have no idea. This situation is incredibly strange," Cheng Hefeng shook his head. No matter how he contemplated, he couldn't make sense of the situation. From the time they entered the assessment competition until now, they had never encountered such a peculiar scenario. If these beasts were trying to save the Wind Spirit Tiger, that would be equally perplexing, as beasts never helped one another.
They couldn't believe it was due to human factors either since they couldn't fathom who could orchestrate such a situation. Thus, they could only fight the beasts in confusion.
"However, there are just too many of them. Even we can't hold on for long," Yu Junfei said helplessly.
Cheng Hefeng's expression was equally grim. "If we can't endure any longer, we'll have to retreat."
In contrast to Cheng Hefeng and Yu Junfei's determined stance, Fang Wencheng's situation was far from optimistic. He felt he couldn't hold on any longer, his mental strength stretched to its limit. One small misstep and he could be overtaken by the beasts. Faced with such a multitude of beasts, once he fell to the ground, there would be no way out.
"This situation is truly bizarre!" Fang Wencheng cursed inwardly, his eyes burning with anger. Regrettably, no matter how unwilling he felt, he had no choice but to give up in this situation.
"I'm leaving first!" After leaving these words, Fang Wencheng transformed into a streak of light, dashing forward. He could no longer persist in this place.
Seeing Fang Wencheng's departure, the cultivators from the Qinglin Dynasty followed suit. They were also exhausted from dealing with the beasts. However, the beasts did not stop their attack after Fang Wencheng and the others left. Instead, they pursued relentlessly, as if they would not cease until their targets were caught.
At that moment, only the cultivators from the Mingwu Dynasty and Yunjian Dynasty remained, struggling to hold on. However, observing their desperate fight, Bai Li Hongzhuang and her companions could tell that they wouldn't last much longer.
A trace of delight quietly surfaced on the faces of the cultivators from the Tiangang Dynasty. Their plan had succeeded!
