Chapter 1903: A Missing Person

When the last student from Sunlight Academy stepped inside the round hole in the bluestone wall, a loud sound rang behind them.

Turning around, everybody saw that a boulder had descended out of the sky and blocked up the path from which they came.

Everybody’s heart couldn’t help but sink.

This tomb was very bizarre. The holes those ring pull mechanisms opened seemed to be coaxing them forward step by step.

Yet they did not know whether the road ahead was a dead end or an escape route.

If the road ahead turned out to be a dead end, then… everybody would suffocate in this tiny corridor.

This place would become their burial ground!

Everybody took a deep breath as they strode after Zhou Danjin’s group.

Even though that boulder blocked the way back out, it did not stop the water current and the nonstop fighting with the monstrous fishes.

The people from Sunlight Academy were at the very back of the procession. They had mixed emotions from anxiety and melancholy as they looked back at that pitch-black corridor.

Those monstrous fishes were so numerous that their combined offensive power would do a number on them.

Moreover, the mutated monstrous fishes that appeared afterwards were at least three to five times larger than the ones from before. That put them in even more strained circumstances.

They would exhaust their mystic energy if they overextended themselves. No one could persist for more than four hours in an enemy encirclement without tiring out.

You Xin and He Wei followed closely after their head mentor, and all the students had anxious expressions as they paced forward quickly.

A psychological pressure unavoidably weighed down on them after walking in the dark for a long period of time.

Besides, the psychological pressure was only multiplied by their uncertain future ahead.

“Hey, Feng Tong. You think we can safely walk out of here?” A Sunlight Academy student whispered to the classmate following behind him.

Because of the narrow clearance, only one person could pass through the corridor at a time.

Therefore, everybody had stretched out single file like a snake as they meandered forward.

When Wang Haizhi did not hear a response from his classmate after some time, he looked back puzzledly. His good friend Feng Tong was trailing behind him dispiritedly with a drooping head.

No one else was around them anymore. Wang Haizhi sighed when he saw Feng Tong’s condition and patted the latter’s shoulder. “Don’t worry, we will definitely be able to go out.”

However, it was unknown whether he was saying this to comfort someone else or to comfort himself. Wang Haizhi turned around with a sigh and picked up the pace as he called, “Feng Tong, hurry up.”

“Haizhi, say, what should we do if this ends up as a dead end?” A female student in front of Wang Haizhi couldn’t help whispering.

Wang Haizhi’s blood ran cold, and he shrugged. “If worse comes to worst, we could drill through the ground and get out that way.”

The female student nodded dispiritedly and casually swept a look behind him when she suddenly halted. “Haizhi, where is Feng Tong?”

Wang Haizhi turned around and felt the chills seeping out from his body.

“Feng-Feng Tong? Feng Tong?” Wang Haizhi whipped his head around. “Feng Tong! Feng Tong?”

The female student shuddered in fright and hastily ran toward the procession. She shouted, “Mentor, Mentor, Feng Tong is missing!”

How could Feng Tong be missing?

The head mentor of Sunlight Academy turned around upon hearing this.
