"Zhang Ergou, you brat, don't you run! We'll beat you to death!"
A scene quickly unfolded in the Beast Forest. A figure was running ahead, followed by a large group of people in hot pursuit.
However, none of these people were using spiritual energy or spells; they relied solely on their physical strength.
After running for more than an hour, many outer disciples had already fallen far behind. The only ones who could barely keep up with Zhang Ergou's pace were the top ten outer disciples, such as Lin Yichen and Xiao Qingyu.
"Damn it, Zhang Ergou, you're too fast! Tell us, how did you escape from Jiang Tian and his gang?"
Everyone sat on the ground, and Lin Yichen asked, with his arm around Zhang Ergou's neck. Xiao Qingyu, Wang Teng, and others also pricked up their ears to listen.
"Heh heh, it all started when I..."
Three days later, the restriction of the Beast Forest was lifted, and the passage to the inner sect opened. The moment the passage opened, Zhang Ergou and a group of disciples rushed towards the inner sect.
"What's going on? Why are so many of you together?" The inner sect was connected to the exit of the Beast Forest, where Lin Yichen and his group encountered their senior brothers.
Seeing Zhang Ergou and a large group of people running out of the Beast Forest, they all looked incredulous.
"Heh heh, it's just that we didn't encounter any major difficulties along the way, so we came through unimpeded in the fastest time," Lin Yichen said with a smile to one of them.
"What exactly happened? Didn't Jiang Tian and Zhuge Wen block you?"
"Hey, apart from the first day when we entered the Beast Forest and met a few inner disciples, we didn't see a single ghost in the remaining three days," Xiao Qingyu said, carrying two large hammers as he walked up from behind.
"What on earth is going on?" The inner disciples guarding the exit were even more puzzled.
"Have you heard of Zhang Ergou?" Wang Teng followed leisurely beside Xiao Qingyu.
"Zhang Ergou? You mean that new disciple from Chunyang Peak, who joined less than half a year ago and has turned the outer sect upside down?" an inner disciple exclaimed.
Zhang Ergou was surprised that his reputation had reached the inner sect, and his old face blushed.
"Yes, that's him. Before the Beast Forest trial began, didn't Jiang Tian, Zhuge Wen, and a few others vow to cripple Zhang Ergou?" Xiao Qingyu directly found a large rock and sat on it.
"Yes, this caused quite a stir in the inner sect at the time."
"What? Did Jiang Tian and the others go to intercept Zhang Ergou, so you all got out so easily?" the same inner disciple asked, his tone clearly surprised.
"Heh heh, senior brother, you've only guessed half of it," Xiao Qingyu said, holding back the suspense.
"Not only did Jiang Tian's gang give up intercepting the other outer disciples, but they also mobilized all the inner disciples to capture Zhang Ergou."
"Damn, this is too outrageous!" Not all the disciples in the inner sect had a good relationship with Jiang Tian and his gang.
"Heh heh, senior brother, there's more you don't know."
"Is there some other development?"
"Senior brother, haven't you noticed that the inner disciples who entered the Beast Forest have not appeared yet, even though we've been out for so long?" Wang Teng's remark made the inner disciples realize the anomaly.
"Because..."
Just as Wang Teng was about to continue, a group of figures appeared in the distance. Looking from afar, those people were not wearing clothes.
"Aren't those Jiang Tian and the others? Why are they like this?"
"That's right, I see Zhuge Wen too. Why are they all naked?" Su Dan Fiction Network
"They must have encountered an invincible enemy, otherwise they wouldn't be so pathetic."
The inner disciples discussed amongst themselves. When Jiang Tian and the others approached, they looked embarrassed to see so many people gathered.
In addition to the inner disciples, many inner sect elders were also present, but they were all seated on a high platform in the distance.
Seeing the disciples who had passed the trial, they all showed satisfied expressions.
On the high platform, Elder Tiandao, Shi Wuhen, and Chi Yu were among the elders. When Chi Yu saw Zhang Ergou in the crowd, a look of satisfaction appeared on his face.
"The disciples being tested in the Beast Forest have all come out. There are quite a few disciples who have advanced this time. It seems the quality of this batch of disciples is much better than the previous one," Elder Tiandao said, stroking his beard.
"Senior brother, I fear there is something fishy about this," said an elder in purple robes beside him.
"What do you mean?"
"Senior brother, please look!" Following the direction pointed by the elder in purple robes, all the elders also saw Jiang Tian, Zhuge Wen, and the others walking towards the exit.
Seeing the inner disciples completely naked, the inner sect elders sitting high on the platform had incredibly vivid expressions on their faces.
Chi Yu even spat, his face turning crimson.
...
The inner sect's Beast Forest trial ended, and Zhang Ergou's name completely spread throughout the inner sect.
Because, no one knew from whose mouth it spread, that the fifty inner disciples led by Jiang Tian were all captured by a disciple at the late stage of Foundation Establishment.
And this disciple at the late stage of Foundation Establishment was Zhang Ergou.
When this news spread, no one believed it at first. However, after a few days, Jiang Tian, Zhuge Wen, and the others did not come out to deny it.
This confirmed the authenticity of the matter.
The inner sect was completely in an uproar, because not only had Zhang Ergou captured Jiang Tian and his gang, but more shamefully, he had plundered all their possessions.
Finally, he made Jiang Tian and the others walk out of the Beast Forest naked, to endure the gaze of all the inner disciples and elders.
"Zhang Ergou, I will not rest until you are dead!" In more than one place, the roars of Jiang Tian and other disciples who were fortunate enough to be chosen to enter the Beast Forest echoed from several peaks in the inner sect.
...
"You brat, you're quite capable. You've made quite a name for yourself this time, bringing a lot of glory to your master," on the Lingyu Peak, in a spacious hall, Chi Yu sat on a rattan chair with his bare feet.
"Heh heh, isn't it said that a great master produces a great disciple? All the achievements I have are thanks to a good master like you," Zhang Ergou said with a fawning grin.
"If I call you fat, you puff up even more!" Chi Yu glared at Zhang Ergou, annoyed, and said indignantly, "Do you know how many inner sect elders have come to find me these days?"
"That's only because their disciples are incompetent. Who can they blame but themselves for being inferior?" Zhang Ergou said with disdain, clearly dissatisfied with the elders' actions.
"You brat, you're being unreasonable! The inner sect Beast Forest trial is about testing each disciple's true ability. Why did you strip them?"
As Chi Yu said this, he felt his own face slightly flush.
