Qing Kui and the others obediently withdrew their pet beasts and hid in a corner of the cell.

Ye Fei tried his best to keep a distance from the three of them before carefully ordering nine-leaf blade grass to use blade dance.

“Smaller range, smaller,” Ye Fei kept trying to control it with his mind.

The range of the fluttering leaves had indeed become much smaller.

Only then did Ye Fei heave a sigh of relief.

He carefully tried a few more times to confirm that the range of the fluttering blades could indeed change continuously with his mind.

Then, he carefully observed how big the range of the poisonous fog was after the plague rat’s corpse exploded, and how long it lasted.

After understanding all of this, Ye Fei quickly calculated the best plan in his mind.

Under the premise of safety and efficiency, he used his fastest speed to kill all the remaining plague rats.

“It’s done. Let’s go.”

Ye Fei brought green sunflower and the others up to the third floor. He still chose the cell randomly based on his intuition.

This time, the enemy he faced was a four-star black iron long-horned electric goat.

It was finally not a group of monsters.

Sunflower said to Ye Fei, “Leave this to me. You should rest and adjust yourself. It’s not like you can take on all the battles by yourself.”

Ye Fei did not decline. After all, his nine-leaf sword grass had used up a lot of energy fighting two groups of monsters in a row. He really needed to rest and regroup.

“You have to be careful. If anything goes wrong, quickly recall your pet and feed it a healing mix,” Ye Fei urged.

“I know, don’t worry.”

Qing Kui patted the head of her pet white tiger confidently. “Whitey, go on!”

Although her little white tiger was not at its peak condition, it was still able to take on a four-star black iron long-horned electric goat alone.

The battle ended very quickly.

The result was just as expected. Qing Kui’s Little White Tiger won.

Ye Fei’s reaction was extremely fast when he encountered the killer bees on the fourth floor. Before the killer bees attacked, he used the roots of the nine-leaf sword grass to bind all of them tightly.

Then, he waved his sword to clear the area and easily ended the battle.

Xiao Yi smiled and said, “Ye Fei, this sword dance of yours is really useful. With it, I feel that the difficulty of clearing the level has plummeted… I feel that we can completely challenge all the way to the top!”

Ling Xuewei poured cold water on him. “Don’t be happy too early. After the fifth floor, it won’t be like this anymore.”

“Starting from the sixth floor, there will no longer be separate cells. Instead, all the different types of fierce beasts will gather together. We have to fight our way through them to get through.”

“Moreover, there will be the strongest fierce beast guarding the stairs. If we want to continue challenging them, we have to defeat it. Otherwise, we will be eliminated.”

“In the past, many teams were successful in the first five floors. However, they were completely wiped out on the sixth floor.”

Ling Xuewei did not want to destroy the morale of her own people. Instead, she had seen many teams that were killed on the sixth floor.

After everyone heard Ling Xuewei’s words, they did not dare to lower their guard.

The ferocious beast they encountered on the fifth floor was a little difficult to deal with.

“Death fungi, among all the toxic fungi, it is the most toxic one.”

“Once anyone or any pet gets within three meters of it, it will immediately release countless tiny spores that are highly toxic.”

“Once a person or pet inhales those toxic spores, they will die within a few seconds. There is almost no chance to save them.”

Ling Xuewei had a good understanding of plant-type pet beasts and fierce beasts, so she only took a glance and said the various terrifying characteristics of the death mushroom.

After Xiao Yi heard it, he cried out in despair, “If they die just by getting close, then how can we fight… how can such a perverted fierce beast appear on the fifth floor!?”

Ling Xuewei said, “This death mushroom has not fully matured, and its toxicity is not as strong as what I said just now. It should not be able to poison people to death. “It shouldn’t be fatal to pet beasts, but it will definitely make them lose their fighting ability for a period of time.”

“Otherwise, the teachers wouldn’t have placed it here.”

“After all, the school let us freshmen enter the trial to improve in actual combat, not to kill us.”

“Moreover, although the poison of the death mushroom is terrifying, its weakness is also very obvious.”

“It has a very strange characteristic, which is that the poisonous spores it releases will weaken the effects of other poisonous pet beasts. “However, after it is infected with the poison of other pets, it will suffer double the damage and will soon die completely.”

Xiao Yi was surprised, “That’s such a strange characteristic! My giant Crystal Scorpion will be perfect to deal with it!”

Ling Xuewei nodded, “Yes.”

“Moreover, all plant-type pet beasts, as well as other pet beasts that do not need to breathe or can hold their breath for a long time, will be immune to the poisonous spores it releases.”

“My Rose is a plant-type pet beast. It won’t be affected by its toxic spores.”

“Later, I’ll find an opportunity to bind it with the rose. Xiao Yi, when the time comes, release the giant Crystal Scorpion and stab it fiercely. It should be dead.”

It was rare for Ling Xuewei to let go of her pride and take the initiative to cooperate with others.

Firstly, she really wanted to make it to the final stage. Secondly, she also wanted to perform well in front of her Prince Charming.

She didn’t want to be a useless flower vase in Ye Fei’s eyes forever.

But unfortunately, Ye Fei clearly didn’t trust her fighting ability.

“Be safe. I’ll control it with you.”

Ye Fei released the nine-leaf sword grass as he spoke, and together with Ling Xuewei’s Rose pet, they entangled the giant death mushroom in front of them.

Ling Xuewei felt extremely wronged. “I can do it alone.”

Ye Fei smiled and said, “It’s safer for two people.”

Ling Xuewei pursed her lips and did not say anything else. However, the thoughts of the Rose revealed her inner thoughts.

“You just don’t believe in my ability.”

Ye Fei could only smile helplessly.

It was not that he did not believe in Ling Xuewei’s ability, but he had already seen it with his own eyes..

Back in the Lost Forest, Ye Fei had personally witnessed how Ling Xuewei’s rose was crushed into powder by the giant golden python.

Therefore, Ye Fei had personally witnessed Ling Xuewei’s use of the rose as well as the effects of the binding.

Naturally, he could not take any more risks.

Otherwise, how dangerous would it be if her rose was suddenly broken in the middle of the fight?

Moreover, what they were facing now was not an ordinary ferocious beast. Once they lost control, the toxic spores would spread everywhere. Even if it did not take their lives, it would still cause great damage to their bodies.

Ye Fei would not take such a risk no matter what, and he would also not allow his friend to take the risk.
