Chapter 56: The Final Victor

After resolving the spider web trap, Ji Chenxi strode forward boldly, and his overly daring actions left the others worried about unseen silk along the way.

Fortunately, after walking quite a distance, they hadn't encountered any danger.

Just as everyone was about to relax, an unexpected change occurred. Countless hidden weapons suddenly shot towards them from an upward angle, sharp projectiles filling the air and almost completely sealing off their escape route. One newcomer, not very mentally strong, was nearly scared to tears; with so many weapons flying at them, would they even survive a hit?

Bai Anran had never felt that their lives were in danger. The joint trial for new students from the two schools, no matter how seriously it was presented, was merely a bit of playful chaos among students. The school would never let it escalate to life-threatening situations. Yet, now, such a trial for assessing the newcomers' abilities actually employed this kind of trap.

As the countless hidden weapons descended, Ji Chenxi squinted slightly, a strange force emanating from his body that controlled those projectiles in midair.

"Mental power control!!" someone exclaimed.

Countless metallic blades floated in the air, directed toward them but restrained by some unseen force. Ji Chenxi was at the forefront, strolling forward as if completely unfazed by it all.

The glint of sharp blades, the exquisite silver-haired youth—everything seemed both dangerous and beautiful.

Facing the danger, Ji Chenxi lightly acknowledged, "Hmm."

"Ji, you can already skillfully use mental power control? That's impressive! You've mastered it even before entering school." The very familiar alpha, who had come forward, chattered beside Ji Chenxi.

"Not just me; Lu Jianhan and Anran can do it too. I just acted first."

"So nearly half of our team can do this?!" The person was almost at their breaking point.

Ji Chenxi was about to nod but seemed to remember something and replied tactfully, "You'll learn it soon enough."

"That's not certain. It's said that among the seniors who entered a year before us, only a handful can emit their mental power."

This time, Ji Chenxi didn't respond right away. Instead, he frowned slightly; this was too easy. Just these hidden weapons were definitely not enough. As long as they could use mental power control, these weapons were just toys. What else was hidden that he hadn't discovered?

Ji Chenxi's silence made the familiar alpha feel a bit awkward. He was about to awkwardly laugh off the topic when Bai Anran timely spoke up, "Emitting mental power requires a bit of sensation. As long as you find that feeling, with practice, you can reach the point of easy control. When we enroll, teachers will teach us specifically."

The person looked gratefully at Bai Anran, feeling that he was incredibly considerate.

Bai Anran was very attentive. The reason he noticed the awkwardness was that he had discovered Lu Jianhan had been silent since entering the underground maze and looked somewhat pale.

This was a small detail, but it prompted Bai Anran to glance at him twice. After clarifying for the familiar alpha, Bai Anran looked for an opportunity to ask if Lu Jianhan was feeling unwell when he suddenly sensed a dangerous aura in the air.

This feeling didn't arise from nowhere. Just as Bai Anran realized this, a huge explosion erupted.

Accompanied by a loud "boom" and flames, Bai Anran's eyes widened in shock.
