In Deathfire Academy, the dean looked at Shen Yanxiao standing opposite him with a smile in his eyes.

“Very well, you’re back on time.” Early this morning, Shen Yanxiao returned safely with all the members of the Flaming Red Squad. The dean once looked at the returning teenagers. Although there was not much difference, he had vaguely found that the death energy of those teenagers had become stronger.

The training was not in vain.

“I will naturally keep my promise,” Shen Yanxiao smiled and said.

“Kehr will tell you the details of the selection competition later. Seven days later, he will take you to the city where the competition will be held. I hope you can earn honor for Deathfire Academy this time,” the dean said with great expectations.

“In that case, if there’s nothing else, I’ll go back first,” Shen Yanxiao said.

“Well, I heard that you picked up a purebred undead child on the way?” The dean noticed that there was a little one in Shen Yanxiao’s team. He had also heard Kehr mention that it was a little kid Shen Yanxiao had met in the Forest of Death. The little kid seemed to have been separated from his parents.

“Yes.” The identity Shen Yanxiao arranged for Taotie was that of an undead brat lost in the Forest of Death. And she just happened to meet him and brought him back.

“Do you need my help?” The dean asked.

Shen Yanxiao shook her head.

“He has a good relationship with the members of the Flaming Red Squad. The members of the Flaming Red Squad want to find his parents for him personally after the selection competition.” Taotie was her holy beast. Where could she find his parents in the Howling Abyss? This secret must not be exposed.

“Alright.” The dean no longer forced her.

Shen Yanxiao left the dean’s room. The teenagers who had just returned to Deathfire Academy had returned to their dormitory to rest, while the foodie Taotie was carried to her dormitory by Shen Yanxiao.

Lying on the bed, Taotie was exceptionally excited.

“What’s wrong?” Shen Yanxiao looked at the little guy who was rolling around on the bed and asked with a smile.

“I have a feeling.” Taotie suddenly looked at Shen Yanxiao in all seriousness.

“What premonition?”

“I will be able to see Vermilion Bird soon!” A smile blossomed on Taotie’s adorable face. He and Vermilion Bird were both Shen Yanxiao’s contracted magical beast. Because of Shen Yanxiao, some spiritual links had been established between him and Vermilion Bird. After Shen Yanxiao became an undead, Vermilion Bird could not stay in Shen Yanxiao’s body due to his attributes. Thus, Taotie had not felt Vermilion Bird’s spiritual body for a long time, but for some reason, he felt that familiar feeling returning today.

Even though it was weak, he could already sense it.

Hearing this, Shen Yanxiao was stunned.

On the east coast of the Howling Abyss, a huge ball of light slowly fell to the ground from the fog. However, the undeads on the coast did not seem to notice the approaching light as they continued to swim numbly on the shore.

An aura that made undeads uneasy shrouded the surroundings, and all the undead subconsciously looked up.

However, above their head was the blue sky, and there was nothing unusual.

There was only a huge ball of light in the sky that they could not see.

“They don’t seem to be able to see us.” In the ball of light, a little child in red opened his scarlet eyes and looked at the dull undeads on the ground with interest.

“If this group of undead could see through the boundary of the God race, how could we survive?” the dragon that reflected seven-colored light said in a deep voice.
