The sky brightened again, and after Aotian, Zhou Zhirui, and Zheng Tiansong ate some dry food, they set off again, preparing to go to other peaks that they had not been to, looking for the missing demonic beasts, as well as the third-level demonic beasts that no one could hunt.

Before leaving, Aotian also left some dry food and water for the five people, so that they could stay where they were.

......

"It seems that there shouldn't be any magical beasts on this mountain!Let's go to other peaks and look for it!" After Aotian, Zhou Zhirui, and Zheng Tiansong briefly walked around one mountain peak, Aotian said with great certainty.

Along the way, Aotian found many disciples who were hiding from them, and some disciples who were walking in the woods in frustration, obviously their badges had been snatched away, and there was no need to hide anymore.

And there are so many disciples gathered in this mountain peak, which means that there must be no second-level or third-level demonic beasts on this peak, as for the first-level demonic beasts, I am afraid that even if there is, they will have been killed by those disciples a long time ago.

"Well, that's right, let's go and have a look at other peaks!" Zheng Tiansong also nodded, agreeing with Aotian's statement.

With that, Aotian, Zhou Zhirui, and Zheng Tiansong immediately descended the mountain and walked briskly towards a mountain peak to the east of the Valley of Trials.

"You guys, where are you going, stand for me!" As soon as the three of them walked into the mountain to the east, they heard a shout in front of them, as well as the sound of footsteps and the "rustle" of grass and trees.

Hearing this voice, the three of Aotian didn't care too much, they all knew very well that today was already the last day, so the competition between the disciples had reached the most intense time.

"Bang-bang-" After the shout, there were two more sounds of fighting, and immediately a few figures appeared vaguely in the field of vision of the three of Aotian.

"Is it a disciple of our branch?" Zhou Zhirui's eyes froze, and she suddenly saw that among the several figures in front of her, four of them seemed to be female disciples.

"Hmph, this junior sister, you are not my opponent, I advise you to hand over the badge quickly, otherwise don't blame us for not knowing how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade, and be rough with you!" A man's cold voice came from the front.

"Our badges have been snatched away by other senior brothers!" a voice that was extremely familiar to Zhou Zhirui followed.

"It's Qingxue's voice!" Hearing that familiar voice, Zhou Zhirui's brows furrowed suddenly, and after a closer look, she found that one of the four female disciples in the woods in front of her was Ao Qingxue, and the other three were also people she knew.

Zhou Zhirui and Ao Qingxue have always been the best friends, but later because Zhou Zhirui went to find Aotian to no avail, after coming back, her temperament changed greatly, she was in a trance all day long, her personality became withdrawn, and she gradually became estranged from Ao Qingxue, and later the arrival of Ao Tian, although Zhou Zhirui recovered, but Ao Qingxue seemed to have changed as if she had changed a person, always avoiding Zhou Zhirui, plus Zhou Zhirui also put all her thoughts on Ao Tian, and there was some neglect of Ao Qingxue, so unconsciously, the relationship between the two seemed to be becoming more and more estranged.

But no matter what, in Zhou Zhirui's heart, Ao Qingxue has always been her best friend, so she couldn't sit idly by when she saw Ao Qingxue killed.

"Hmph, don't bluff me, you treat me as a three-year-old child, I know that you have badges on you, otherwise what are you hiding and hiding, tell a few of you, hand over the badges happily, otherwise we will search you ourselves!" The man's voice came again, obviously not planning to let go of Ao Qingxue and the others.

"Aotian, it's Qingxue and them, let's go help them!" Zhou Zhirui suddenly grabbed Aotian's arm and said a little anxiously.

In fact, Zhou Zhirui also guessed in her heart that after Ao Qingxue's arrival, her temperament suddenly changed drastically, and she deliberately avoided herself, which should be because of Ao Tian.

Although she couldn't guess what had happened between the two, she knew very well what Aotian was, and knew that Aotian was not the kind of person who was decisive, Ao Qingxue and him were members of the same family, and he would definitely not sit idly by.

Sure enough, after hearing Zhou Zhirui's words, Aotian also frowned slightly, his eyes froze, he looked carefully at the few people in front of him, and then retracted his gaze, nodded and said, "Let's go over and have a look!"

Aotian is not a small-bellied and narrow-minded person, although Ao Qingxue has deeply hurt him, but he doesn't want to care about the past anymore.

......

In the woods, Ao Qingxue looked at the two men in front of her with anger on her face, and then glanced at several female disciples beside her, her eyes full of unwillingness and helplessness.

"Hurry up and take it out, otherwise I will really search on you by myself, and when the time comes, you don't blame me if you touch the place you shouldn't touch!" The man in front of him snorted coldly, and couldn't help but take a step forward slightly, looking like he was going to do it.

"If you touch a place that you shouldn't touch, cut off your hands!" Aotian's cold voice suddenly came from the forest behind Ao Qingxue and the others, and couldn't help but make the two men's expressions stiffen, and their eyes followed the prestige, and their complexions suddenly changed greatly.

I saw Aotian, Zhou Zhirui, and Zheng Tiansong walking over together.

Not to mention that Zhou Zhirui and Zheng Tiansong are the strongest people in their respective branches, and the faint name of Aotian alone is enough to make these two people tremble.

"Proud, Senior Brother Aotian, Senior Sister Zhou, Senior Brother Zheng, you, you are also here, Ha Luha, that, we, we still have something to do, so let's go first!" The man was afraid that Aotian would snatch his badge, so he said a few words in a panic, and immediately smeared oil on the soles of his feet, ready to slip away.

"Stop!" Aotian snorted coldly, and suddenly frightened the two of them into shape, and cold sweat was dripping on their backs.

"If you want to go, you can take out half of the badges on the two of you and give it to these four senior sisters!" Aotian's shouts sounded again, and he couldn't help but feel a chill in the hearts of the two of them, secretly saying that he was really unlucky, and he actually ran into Aotian.

"Senior Brother Aotian...... I ......" The man's face was ugly, and he wanted to say something but was interrupted by Aotian: "No more nonsense, leave all the badges!"

"Yes, yes, I'll give, I'll give!" The man's face was full of fear, and he immediately took a small bag on his body, took out a dozen badges from it, and handed them to Ao Qingxue and a few people.

And although the man beside him was full of reluctance, he didn't dare to disobey Aotian's words, he also took the bag with his badges, took out more than a dozen badges, and handed them to Ao Qingxue and a few people.

"Let's go!" Seeing that the two were still obedient, Aotian stopped embarrassing them and let them go.

Ao Qingxue took the badge handed by the two, and her heart couldn't help but turn over the river and the sea again, with mixed tastes, she didn't expect Aotian to appear, and she didn't expect Aotian to help her.

"Has he forgiven me?" Ao Qingxue thought in her heart, and her heart was beating wildly at this moment for some reason.

Turning to look at Aotian and Zhou Zhirui who came over, Ao Qingxue hesitated, and finally mustered up the courage and said, "Thank you, Aotian!"

Hearing Ao Qingxue's words, Ao Tian didn't say anything, just smiled slightly.

But his smile, for Ao Qingxue, I don't know how precious Lu Dao is, but also an affirmation of her guess in her heart, as the saying goes, when you meet, you have a smile and a grudge, and Aotian's smile may mean that he has forgiven her for her past mistakes.

"Thank you, Senior Brother Aotian, for your help!"

"Thank you, Senior Brother Aotian!" the other three female disciples beside Ao Qingxue also clasped their fists and said gratefully.

"You're welcome!" Aotian smiled and waved his hand, and said lightly.

"Qingxue, aren't you hurt?" Zhou Zhirui came to Ao Qingxue's side and asked with concern.

"No, Senior Sister Zhirui, thank you!" Ao Qingxue smiled slightly and said gratefully.

"What do you have to say to me, thank you, come with us, so that no one will dare to hit your attention!" Zhou Zhirui said with a smile.

"But ......" Hearing Zhou Zhirui's words, Ao Qingxue was naturally very happy in her heart, but she was afraid that Ao Tian would not be willing, so her eyes flickered slightly, and she secretly glanced at Ao Tian to see what his expression was.

Zhou Zhirui noticed Ao Qingxue's eyes, immediately turned her head to look at Ao Tian beside her, and asked with a smile, "Ao Tian, shall we bring Qingxue and them?"

"No problem!" Aotian said with a shrug of his shoulders.

"Hehe, that's okay, you four will follow us!" Zhou Zhirui smiled slightly, looked at Ao Qingxue and the others and said.

Hearing this, Ao Qingxue couldn't help but show an extremely happy smile on her face, and the other three female disciples on the side were even more overjoyed, clapping their hands excitedly, and thanking Ao Tian and Zhou Zhirui again and again.

"Alright, let's go on!" Aotian clapped his hands and beckoned everyone to continue walking towards the mountain.

Aotian and Zheng Tiansong walked in the front, while Zhou Zhirui accompanied Ao Qingxue and the others, following behind Aotian and Zheng Tiansong.

"Qingxue, how many badges do you have?" Zhou Zhirui leaned into Ao Qingxue's ear and asked in a low voice.

"Counting the two senior brothers just now, there are a total of sixteen, a few of us have low strength, and in the past two days of hunting demonic beasts, each of us has obtained less than ten badges, and a few have been robbed by other senior brothers before!" Ao Qingxue said with some shame.

She didn't have much hope for this selection competition, but just wanted to come to experience it and familiarize herself with the process of the competition.

"Well, I'll give you some later!" Zhou Zhirui said in a low voice, although she has a good relationship with the other three junior sisters, it is not as good as her relationship with Ao Qingxue, and she can help one person, if everyone helps, then her badge may not be enough.

"No, no, no need, senior sister, you can keep it, I didn't have the luxury of being able to enter the inner sect this time!" Although Ao Qingxue was very moved in her heart, she was really embarrassed to ask for Zhou Zhirui's badge, so she waved her hand again and again.

"Don't worry, with Aotian here, you and I will enter the Inner Sect smoothly!" Zhou Zhirui gently patted Zhou Zhirui's fragrant shoulder, and then looked at the Aotian who was talking to Zheng Tiansong in front of him.

Hearing Zhou Zhirui's words, Ao Qingxue didn't say anything more, but looked at Aotian in front of her with Zhou Zhirui, the figure that made both of them excited, the man who seemed to be able to hold up the sky for them.
