Late at night.
Chu Ge and the others took turns keeping watch.
The recent Sharp-toothed Serpent Tiger Group had frightened them, so they dared not let their guard down.
The time was probably around 3:30 a.m.
Suddenly, Xiao Ming rushed over.
He surfaced from the sea and was spotted by Xiao Hero.
"Xiao Ming has returned."
Xiao Hero said softly, waking everyone up.
"Chi Lian, Xiao Poor Thing, Silhouette, go and see."
Chu Ge instructed, while the others stayed with him in the woods.
The three of them came to the shallows.
"How has it been during this time?" Chi Lian asked.
Xiao Ming had acquired quite a few more injuries. He laughed, "Not bad, the fighting was pretty exhilarating. You don't need to worry about me. I've mixed in with the Sparta Group. They encountered a Sea Monster before and asked for my help. After I helped, they offered to protect me till the competition ends."
Xiao Poor Thing asked in doubt, "Really?"
