They held their breath and stared intently at Su Mo, eager to know what he would do next.
"The weather is nice, and the wind speed is moderate."
Su Mo muttered to himself, then leaped onto the treetop with a powerful burst of energy.
Just as everyone was watching Su Mo's next move, Su Mo actually leaned against the tree trunk and lay down, closing his eyes with a contented look on his face.
"idiot!"
Seeing Su Mo fall asleep immediately, Wu Changkong cursed inwardly with a cold face.
Although Su Mo's spot in the Spirit Ascension Platform was bought by Donghai Academy, Wu Changkong was still very dissatisfied with Su Mo for wasting such a precious spot.
This is the Ascension Platform during the riots, a place where countless people would fight tooth and nail to get in.
But Su Mo, on the other hand, just slept in as soon as she arrived.
If that's the case, it would be better to reserve the spot for Tang Wulin, give him some extra lessons, and help him catch up with the other members of Class Zero as soon as possible.
Although he had only known Tang Wulin for less than half a year, Wu Changkong was very satisfied with Tang Wulin, his student.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have so readily given all of Su Mo's spots for entering the Spirit Ascension Platform to Tang Wulin without even pretending.
On the other side, Wang Ling and the other staff members of the Spirit Pagoda were also puzzled when they saw Su Mo lie down directly.
Which young master has sneaked out to experience life again?
Wang Ling dared to swear that this was the first time in his life he had ever seen someone enter the agitated stage of the Spirit Ascension Platform simply to sleep.
Even Mu Xi, the daughter of Mu Chen, the only eight-star master craftsman in the Tianhai region and president of the East Sea City Blacksmith Association, has never been so extravagant.
Of course, Su Mo also had something to say: wouldn't it be a waste of life to use such a good environment and weather for cultivation?
The unnamed wild grasses, sprouting new buds, swayed back and forth like green waves under the gentle caress of the breeze.
The emerald green leaves rustled softly, and the gentle sunlight dappled through the layers of the canopy, warming my face.
The air was filled with the rich scent of life, and occasionally one could hear the chirping of insects and the calls of birds.
To be preoccupied with cultivation even in such a pleasant environment suggests there's something wrong with one's mind.
With a gentle spring breeze and warm sunshine, Su Mo quickly drifted into a sweet dream.
Seeing that Su Mo had really fallen asleep, Wu Changkong knew that Su Mo would most likely just sleep here until the end.
Thinking of this, Wu Changkong stopped paying attention to Su Mo and turned his attention to Tang Wulin and his group.
As those in the Spirit Pagoda marveled at the seamless teamwork of Tang Wulin and his group, someone suddenly exclaimed, "Wait, those are Human-Faced Demon Spiders!!!"
The staff of the Spirit Pagoda gasped when they saw the Hundred-Year-Old Human-Faced Demon Spider suddenly appear in front of Tang Wulin and the others.
Although the Human-Faced Demon Spider on the Primary Spirit Ascension Platform only has a hundred years of cultivation, its true combat power is comparable to that of a thousand-year-old soul beast.
Even a three-ring Soul Master would have no choice but to slink away when facing this human-faced demon spider.
Not to mention Tang Wulin and his group of students, whose average grade level is less than 20.
Upon seeing this, Wang Ling and the others immediately brought over various medical instruments, preparing to provide treatment as soon as Tang Wulin and the others were eliminated.
Unlike Wang Ling and the others who were anxious, although Gu Yue's cooperation with Tang Wulin and the others had recently encountered some flaws, Wu Changkong still had full confidence in Tang Wulin and the others, believing that they could deal with this human-faced demon spider.
Just as Tang Wulin was engaged in a fierce battle with the Human-Faced Demon Spider, an unexpected situation also occurred on Su Mo's side.
A figure was seen flying backward from the dense forest, crashing heavily into the tree where Su Mo was.
After seeing the other person's face clearly, Wang Ling immediately recognized her identity, "That's... Mu Xi, the daughter of Master Craftsman Mu Chen?"
On the screen, Mu Xi's high-tied golden ponytail was now extremely messy, and she was panting heavily, her whole body covered in blood, looking extremely miserable.
A deep claw mark, penetrating to the bone, remained on his chest, and blood was flowing uncontrollably.
With both arms shattered and hanging limply to the ground, he leaned against a tree, half-dead.
Although their Spirit Tower equips each person entering the Ascension Platform with an alarm, pressing the alarm allows them to leave the platform.
But Mu Xi is already so badly injured that the alarm on her body is probably long gone.
Moreover, if he remembered correctly, Mu Xi, the daughter of the Holy Craftsman, should be a three-ring Soul Master.
Based on Mu Xi's cultivation level and the scratches on her body, the identity of the soul beast that severely injured Mu Xi is obvious—the guardian of this primary spirit ascension platform, a dark gold dinosaur bear with a hundred years of cultivation.
The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, with its century-long cultivation, is a terrifying existence that rivals even Soul Kings among Soul Masters, and many ten-thousand-year-old Soul Beasts would turn tail and run away upon encountering it.
The thought of bear-type spirit beasts having the terrifying habit of eating their prey alive sent a chill down Wang Ling's spine at the thought of what Mu Xi would face next.
On the other side, Mu Xi was filled with regret for ever entering the Spirit Ascension Platform during the turbulent period to undergo training.
Mu Xi originally thought that with her cultivation level of a three-ring Soul Master, even if she couldn't dominate the initial Spirit Ascension Platform during the turbulent period, she could at least guarantee her safety.
But what happened in the blink of an eye completely overturned her understanding.
In the short time it took her to bend down and tie her shoelaces, several of her companions were reduced to bloody, mangled corpses.
Before she could even see who had attacked her, she was sent flying backward like a deflated balloon after being struck by a heavy blow.
If she hadn't worn a protective vest before entering the Ascension Platform, she probably would have been cut in half like her companions.
However, after seeing what the other party looked like, Mu Xi's pretty face turned deathly pale in an instant. It turned out to be a dark gold dinosaur bear.
Even though Mu Xi's main focus is on forging, she has still heard of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, a top-tier soul beast that stands at the pinnacle of the continent.
Thinking about what was about to happen to her, Mu Xi instinctively wanted to shout for help, but her body was too paralyzed by excessive fear. She could only watch helplessly as the dark golden dinosaur claw bear in the dense forest approached her step by step.
"Hooho~"
Seemingly realizing that Mu Xi was no longer a threat, the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear stood up and roared to the sky as it approached her.
The strong stench of blood assaulted her senses, causing Mu Xi's tears to fall like broken pearls.
Seeing Mu Xi completely enveloped by the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's massive body, Wang Ling and the other staff members of the Spirit Pagoda all showed expressions of pity.

Chapter 18 Hero saves beauty
"Teacher Wu, your students are here too. Aren't you worried at all?"
Looking at Wu Changkong, who remained unmoved throughout, Wang Ling couldn't help but ask a question.
"It's his own choice and has nothing to do with me. Anyway, he won't die."
Wu Changkong, his eyes fixed on Tang Wulin and the other four, answered without turning his head.
In Wu Changkong's view, Su Mo's encounter with the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear was entirely his own fault.
If Su Mo had chosen to act with Tang Wulin and the others back then, she would never have encountered this situation.
As for Mu Xi, her life or death is none of my business.
"How the hell did someone like that become a teacher?!"
Seeing Wu Changkong's heartlessness, Wang Ling couldn't help but mutter to himself.
Although, as Wu Changkong said, dying inside the Ascension Platform does not result in actual death, this does not mean that dying inside the Ascension Platform comes without any consequences.
Because the environment simulated by the Ascension Platform is no different from reality, the perception generated when the Ascension Platform is damaged is exactly the same.
The mental impact persists even after leaving the Ascension Platform. If not handled properly, it can easily lead to brain death for those with weak mental strength and insufficient willpower.
"Help me! Someone please help me!"
"Eunice, whoever it is, come and save me!"
Seeing the giant claws being sent towards her, Mu Xi, completely panicked, screamed wildly in her heart.
With a loud crash, the tree where Su Mo was standing collapsed and broke in two, crashing heavily to the ground and kicking up a lot of dust.
Seeing this, Wang Ling and the others had already begun to mourn for Mu Xi in their hearts.
"You have no manners whatsoever!"
Amidst the billowing smoke, Su Mo's resentful voice echoed softly.
Su Mo never expected that he would encounter the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear when he ascended to the Spirit Platform.
Su Mo had absolutely no good impression of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear.
If it weren't for Bi Ji standing up for her, Su Mo would have been captured by Xiong Jun and used as a breeding tool.
Among the many ferocious beasts in the Star Dou Forest, apart from the Demon Spirit and the King of Ten Thousand Demons who had no interest in procreation and expanding their races, everyone else, including Di Tian, coveted Su Mo.
Fortunately, Bi Ji had enough influence to snatch Su Mo from the other ferocious beasts; otherwise, Su Mo didn't even dare to imagine the consequences.
"Senior Mu Xi, are you alright?"
Su Mo looked down at Mu Xi, who was covered in blood, in his arms, and tried his best to put on a bright and sunny smile.
As a qualified ninja, gathering intelligence is an instinct ingrained in Su Mo's bones.
Whenever Su Mo arrived in an unfamiliar place, he would send people to collect information on all the local powerful figures to prevent himself from being caught off guard.
Mu Chen is a very influential figure in the entire Sun Moon Federation, so he is naturally someone Su Mo is paying attention to.
So Su Mo recognized Mu Xi's identity the moment he saw her.
Mu Xi didn't speak, her attention entirely focused on Su Mo's handsome face.
Faced with Su Mo's handsome face that appealed to men, women, young and old alike, Mu Xi was so captivated that she forgot the pain she was feeling.
"Senior?"
Seeing that Mu Xi remained silent for a long time, Su Mo assumed that the other party was too frightened to speak.
"I'm sorry, senior!"
Hearing the angry roar behind him, Su Mo gently placed the seriously injured Mu Xi on the ground and spoke with a hint of apology.
Then, ignoring Mu Xi's reaction, Su Mo quickly tapped several points on Mu Xi's body to block out the pain.
The reason I didn't stop Mu Xi's bleeding was that, given the extent of her injuries, even if I pressed all the acupoints on her body, it wouldn't help.
"Alright, now it's time to deal with you!"
