A moment later, Chen Qing was left wearing only shorts and a vest, while Zhao Manyan was now wearing his original jacket and pants.

Fortunately, it was summer and the weather was hot, so Chen Qing wouldn't feel cold from wearing too little clothing.

After a simple wash, Zhao Manyan no longer looked so disheveled, but the strong fishy smell could still be smelled from a distance.

Zhao Manyan looked at Chen Qing with a resentful expression, while the latter pretended not to see it and was deftly cleaning up the demon's head and scales.

This is their proof of killing demons. Although the demons' corpses have turned into a pile of flesh, you can still roughly find where the demons' heads are.

After cleaning up, Chen Qing led the group away from this blood-soaked place.

As soon as they left, the man hidden in the darkness emerged.

He looked at the mangled blood and flesh scattered on the ground, gasped, and exclaimed:

"A warrior-level summoned beast with mid-level ice magic, he's practically guaranteed to be the top scorer in this year's Mingzhu College Entrance Examination."

After saying that, he started making marks on the document in his hand, writing something that was unclear.

……

The four continued deeper into the dense forest, but apart from some servant-level demons, they didn't see even a hair on a warrior-level demon.

"Wasn't it said that there were general-level demons lurking around here? How come we haven't seen any after walking for so long?"

Ai Tutu was no longer nervous and scared. She looked around with curiosity, her gaze occasionally lingering on Chen Qing.

"I think... the school must have cleared out the general-level demons on this island in advance. After all, we don't have any experience fighting demons, and there aren't many people who have advanced to intermediate-level mages. It would be too difficult to fight against general-level demons."

After Mu Nujiao finished speaking, she looked at Chen Qing. For some reason, she just wanted to get some recognition from him.

However, when she saw Chen Qing's beautifully sculpted muscles, her pretty face flushed slightly.

"Hmm." Chen Qing nodded. "You're right."

However, as soon as he finished speaking, Red Buff looked at the dense forest ahead with a wary expression and let out a series of low growls.

Everyone was startled by the sudden change in the red buff's state, and Chen Qing, who was connected to it by thought, immediately received the meaning it conveyed.

On the small island... a demon of warrior level suddenly appeared.

Chen Qing frowned slightly at the sudden appearance of a general-level demon.

Aside from those provided by the school, the only remaining possibility is that a demon in the servant advancement stage has successfully advanced.

The chances of the school distributing this are almost zero, so it must be that a demon has broken through.

Chen Qing looked at Mu Nujiao, Ai Tutu, and Zhao Manyan and said solemnly, "Xiao Hong told me that a general-level demon suddenly appeared on the island. It should be that a demon in the servant advancement stage has broken through."

Upon hearing this, Mu Nujiao frowned and said in a deep voice, "Many teams don't even have a mid-level mage. If they encounter a general-level demon..."

She didn't finish her sentence, but everyone understood what she meant.

"Oh no, we're not going to be so unlucky as to run into that demon general!" Ai Tutu took two steps back in fear and reached out to hug Chen Qing's arm.

Chen Qing's face darkened as he felt the small hand constantly rubbing against his arm.

Hey, hey, hey, are you being a pervert?

Although Chen Qing was inwardly complaining, the sensation he felt made him feel somewhat lightheaded.

"What are you afraid of?" Zhao Manyan was several meters away from the group, simply because he smelled terrible.

With two wads of tissue stuck in his nostrils, Zhao Manyan looked at the red buff next to him, which was more than twice his height, and said confidently:

"If it dares to come, Old Chen's summoned beasts will definitely be able to KO it!"

"Tch." Ai Tutu glanced at him and muttered under her breath, "Acting like Xiao Hong is yours."

After a brief conversation, the tension that had been hanging over the four of them dissipated instantly, and they even began to hope that the demon general would come over.

Chen Qing checked the time. He had taken a bus and then transferred to a cruise ship to reach the island. After the battle, it was already noon.

Gollum-

Just then, Ai Tutu's stomach roared like a dragon. Chen Qing put down his backpack and said, "It's getting late. Let's all rest and have something to eat."

"Okay, okay." Ai Tutu nodded first and immediately took out potato chips, nuts, spicy strips, beef jerky... from her small bag.

Zhao Manyan was holding a compressed biscuit in his hand, about to put it in his mouth, when he saw the huge pile of things that Ai Tutu pulled out. His eyes widened immediately, and the biscuit in his hand suddenly lost its appeal.

Chen Qing was also very surprised. Ai Tutu's bag didn't look very big, so how could it hold so many snacks?

Only after a small mountain of snacks had piled up on the ground did Ai Tutu stop. She picked up a vacuum-packed chicken leg and placed it in Mu Nujiao's hand, then said to Chen Qing and Zhao Manyan, "Don't be shy, help yourselves, it's on me."

Chen Qing silently stuffed the bread that she hadn't taken out yet deeper into the bag, then picked up a piece of beef jerky and stuffed it into her mouth without any hesitation.

Fresh, fragrant, spicy, and numbing, with a slightly tantalizing flavor.

The four sat on the open ground enjoying their meal. If it weren't for the constant stench emanating from Zhao Manyan, everyone would probably think they were on a spring outing.

Just as everyone was enjoying their meal, Red Buff, who was on guard, suddenly lowered his body and let out a low growl.

Chen Qing immediately stood up and scanned the direction where the red buff was alert. Mu Nujiao and Zhao Manyan also stood up, and magical light slowly gathered in their hands.

Only Ai Tutu, the gluttonous girl, was still kneeling on the ground, somewhat bewildered, her mouth stuffed full of milky white yogurt.

rustling sounds—!!

Suddenly, everyone's eyes turned to the direction where the bushes were swaying.

The trees there were shaking violently, and grass and trees were constantly being separated, forming an incredibly wide road.

Just as the bushes parted, a somewhat oppressive atmosphere swept over us.

Everyone looked closely and saw a demon with a fish head and a beast's body, covered in sharp bone spurs, slowly crawling out of the bushes.

And it exuded the aura of a warrior general.

Zhao Manyan swallowed hard, then said with a wry smile, "Damn, I was just kidding, you actually came!"

Ai Tutu, her face slightly pale, hid behind Chen Qing, her little hands gripping the hem of his vest tightly.

Mu Nujiao's gaze was sharp at this moment, and she was ready for battle, but judging from her slightly trembling fingers, she was definitely very scared inside.

"Ugh—!!!"

The fish-headed monster covered in bone spurs saw them, and a crimson glint appeared in its eyes. It then let out a melodious roar.

Upon hearing this roar, dozens or even hundreds of roars echoed back from the dense forests on the island.

"A fish... a fishbone demon, a warrior-level fishbone demon!"
