Today's test was another major failure.

His breathing became heavy, and the increasingly obvious feeling of suffocation reminded You Yonghuai of the mask on his face. He looked at Dai Quan with growing shock.

He's not using his own face now, so how did Dai Quan manage to recognize himself at a glance?

Even if there are factors that could lead to a failed test, it's not something that can be easily discovered.

To trigger a check, one must at least have the ability to recognize oneself.

"What, do you two know each other?" the man surnamed Zhao asked, looking at the two people staring at each other.

Beneath the mask, You Yonghuai's brows furrowed slightly. He knew something was wrong and quietly reached into his pocket, grasping the vial of medicine.

"...I don't know him. I just wanted to check the quality of the medicine." Dai Quan looked away, shook his head, and squatted down to open the cardboard box.

Seeing Dai Quan bypass him, You Yonghuai's pupils narrowed slightly, somewhat confused about the current situation.

As Dai Quan counted the medicines, the remaining believers arrived one after another. After confirming the quantity of medicines, Dai Quan slowly stood up and said, "Mr. Zhao, please go up on stage and speak first. I'll go settle the payment for the goods first."

"Alright," the man said with a smile, patting Dai Quan on the shoulder. "I trust you the most when it comes to getting things done."

Dai Quan smiled, said nothing more, and turned around to signal You Yonghuai to follow.

Seeing that Ling Xiuqi's gaze was fixed on them from a distance, You Yonghuai quietly gave a signal and then quickly followed Dai Quan.

They walked into the emergency exit one after the other. Only You Yonghuai and Dai Quan were in the dimly lit stairwell.

"The police found this place?" Dai Quan asked first.

"How did you find me?" You Yonghuai asked instead of answering.

"You probably guessed it, right? My future self... or rather, my present self, is a cult member." Dai Quan lowered his eyes, his tone tinged with melancholy.

"Looks like you hold a pretty high position... You seem to be having a good time in the cult."

"This was not my intention, but I had already lost myself in money and power."

Dai Quan wanted to ramble on a bit more, but hearing the noise from the Bluetooth speakers in the room, he quickly got to the point:

"You've already found the basement on campus, right? Here's the key. It's in the apartment complex across from the school, building 8, apartment 103. The entrance to the basement is right there."

"To enter the center of the magic circle without being blocked, one needs to master the magic in the Flesh and Blood Notebook and the Soul Notebook. The latter originally belonged to me, but has now been taken back by the school."

"I only memorized a simple spell. It's not very useful, but it's enough for you to get into the center of the magic circle."

"And the container I gave you before I regained my memories. Only by placing that thing in the center of the magic circle can we destroy the doom node within it, and thus destroy the entire magic circle."

As he spoke, Dai Quan took out a key and a note from his pocket and handed them to You Yonghuai, reminding him again: "One last reminder, don't enter that underground space casually—the people from the school definitely have something on your mind."

Somewhat dazed, You Yonghuai took the keys and note. It took him a moment to understand what was happening before he asked, "Why did you do this?"

"Just some vague reasons." Dai Quan chuckled self-deprecatingly and said, "In these three years, I've done many wrong things, and I no longer deserve to call myself a teacher, but..."

"No matter what, I can no longer stand by and watch my students' future be taken away."

After saying that, Dai Quan turned to go downstairs, but before he had even taken a few steps, he hurriedly turned back: "I almost forgot to pay, please show your QR code."

After receiving the money, You Yonghuai watched Dai Quan leave the venue and asked, "You're just leaving like that?"

"I still have a few things to do. After that, I will turn myself in... if there is still a chance."

Leaving the emergency exit, You Yonghuai entered the venue, looking at the man on the stage giving a passionate speech and spreading cult ideology, and then taking a closer look at the layout of the venue.

Including the emergency exits, the venue has a total of seven entrances and exits, two of which are locked and not in use.

"What's going on with Dai Quan?" Ling Xiuqi, disguised as a waiter, approached You Yonghuai and asked.

"He's gone; for now, we can trust him."

"Alright then, Lao Ye has already brought his men and are waiting outside. We'll take care of those tough guys, and then we'll just close in on the rest."

In the venue, there were several people who possessed a particularly strong spiritual aura.

After removing their gloves, You Yonghuai and Ling Xiuqi exchanged a glance, and the latter immediately raised his hand.

A hurricane suddenly surged up in the center of the venue, and a huge, almost imperceptible sphere released a tremendous pulling force, as if it wanted to devour everything.

"Who's there!?"

Several highly spiritual individuals instantly became alert. While resisting the pull of the hurricane, they searched for the culprit behind the chaos and quickly noticed Ling Xiuqi.

"Congratulations, you've been arrested." Ling Xiuqi smiled and bowed slightly.

At the same time, a gentle breeze fell on You Yonghuai, protecting him from being drawn away by the hurricane at the center.

Traveling on the wind, You Yonghuai's movements became increasingly rapid, and in the blink of an eye, he arrived behind someone and poured some of the illusion potion on that person.

He originally wanted to subdue the other party by touching it directly with his hands and absorbing its life force, but that would take too long and was inconvenient.

The drug quickly seeped into the man's body. Before he could react, colorful lights appeared before his eyes, and his head became dizzy.

With the speed boost from the breeze released by Ling Xiuqi, You Yonghuai quickly subdued several spiritually powerful individuals below the stage. Then, his gaze turned to the man on the stage.

"Damn it..." The man immediately realized what had happened. He raised his hand toward You Yonghuai, his spiritual energy surging and converging in his palm.

Seeing this, Ling Xiuqi raised an eyebrow, then raised his hand again, and in the interval of maintaining the hurricane, gave You Yonghuai a little breeze.

Just as You Yonghuai started running, the sudden increase in speed made him a little unaccustomed to it.

[Running Test: A score greater than 49 indicates a successful test]

Test result: 44

[Test failed! You have a leg cramp!]

"?" You Yonghuai, who had already rushed in front of the man, suddenly widened his eyes. A sharp pain suddenly shot through his left foot, and he lost his balance and fell to the ground.

Fortunately, You Yonghuai's fall also knocked the man down, and his palm landed on the man's face, triggering both an electric shock and a life force absorption.

The unfinished spell instantly collapsed, and the man, suffering a backlash, coughed up a mouthful of blood.

You Yonghuai's hand was still pressed against the other person's face.

"Eek—" You Yonghuai struggled to sit up, making a sound of disgust.

Before he could even notice the throbbing pain in his left leg, You Yonghuai raised his hand and threw a punch.

Then, the police officers who were waiting outside rushed in immediately.
