Something quaked in the grass. With a roar, a giant grizzly bear as high as a human jumped out. Its grey hair looked glossy in the sun. It glared at Zhang Yan and Fatty with its bloody-red eyes. Its growling seemed to demonstrate or warn.

Fatty backed off in terror and said in startle, "The bear is an adult animal which is hard for even a warrior in the ninth level of Body Refining to deal with. It seems to turn into a Xiantian demonic beast soon."

"You are right, but it seems to protect something, or it would have rushed out to tear us up." Zhang Yan identified the bear's weakness. Its cubs were in the grass behind the mother bear. It tried to protect its cubs from them so it dared not run out rashly, otherwise it would have already bit them.

While Zhang Yan was considering how to deal with this grizzly bear, a world-shaking howl sounded from a distance, then a larger grizzly bear scurried from the forest. It roared at Zhang Yan and pounced on him directly. This bear looked clumsy but it moved at an amazing speed after it was provoked. It appeared in front of Zhang Yan in the blink of an eye and it slapped its paw which was larger than a human head down to Zhang Yan's head.

Without a word, Zhang Yan jumped aside and cried to Fatty, "Follow me, run!"

Zhang Yan and Fatty ran as fast as their legs could take them into the depths of the forest. The bear roared and chased after them closely. The two persons were agile and in a relatively high level of cultivation, so they were a little faster than the bear. They moved in the forest fleetly and flung off the bear within moments.

They leaned against big trees for a rest and breathed heavily. Fatty was still in a state of shock, "This bear is strong enough to be on a par with a Xiantian demonic beast. Fortunately, we ran fast, or we would have been killed."

"I thought you would fight with the bear recklessly. Unexpectedly, you ran," said Fatty.

Zhang Yan answered, "If I fight with them, I could have killed them as well. While it is risky for us to kill them. We just get out alive in the exam. It's no need to risk our lives

"Don't brag. I know you are strong, but I don't believe you could have defeated them. If we had not run out of their domain, we would have fallen prey to them." Fatty didn't know Zhang Yan had been a Xiantian warrior, so he didn't believe Zhang Yan could defeat the two bears.

In a little while, they saw many people running out from the deep forest. They seem to be chased after by someone. They rushed back as fast as possible. Some warned Zhang Yan and Fatty kindly, "Run, the wolves is coming!"

"Wolves?"

Zhang Yan and Fatty's expression instantly changed. Their laughing face were replaced with solemn ones.

What was the most horrible object in Qingyuan Mountains? Some people thought it was demonic beast in high level. However, there were few strong demonic beasts. Generally they appeared in remote Mountains, so warriors seldom came across them. Therefore, they were not the most horrible things.

What real frightened people were wolves, the Qingyuan wolves in Qingyuan Mountains. Although each wolf was like a warrior in the fourth level of Body Refining, they often haunted in groups. A pack of wolves may include a dozen or several dozens of wolves. Once wolves appeared, what people can only do was running.

When a pack of wolves passed by, even demonic beasts avoided them and no one can defeat the fierce and sly wolves.

Zhang Yan had met a pack of wolves once when he hunted in Qingyuan Mountains. At that time, the pack consisted of less than twenty wolves and they almost bit Zhang Yan to death. Finally, Zhang Yan wiped out the whole pack with himself seriously injured. It took him a full month to convalesce. Since then, he understood how horrible the wolves were.

Zhang Yan and Fatty ran back right away. At this moment, no one cared the exam. They cannot survive if they met the wolves. Compared with life, nothing was more important.

Outside the exam forest, a disciple of Qingyuan School reported to the elder anxiously, "Elder, lots of Qingyuan wolves appeared in the exam forest suddenly, they were chasing after our disciples."

"What? How could it be?" The elder of Qingyuan was startled. The entrance exam was vital to the development and reputation of their school. Qingyuan School would suffer an enormous hit if something went wrong.

The elder stood up and shouted with killing intent in his eyes, "The exam stops! All disciples come to rescue the examinees and kill the wolves. "
