Chen Baiwen exchanged a look with Yu Hongbo and the others; without needing to speak, they understood each other.
Yu Hongbo composed himself and then said, "Xiang Beifei, I've long admired your reputation. I am Yu Hongbo, the team leader from Yanzhou University."
Chen Baiwen also nodded slightly but remained silent.
Xiang Beifei, appearing thoughtful, gazed at the people from Yanzhou University. His eyes swept over them, then he glanced at Zhu Xinjue and after a moment said, "Why are you here?"
"After we entered this withered forest, we realized something was wrong and then ran up to this mountain. The situation outside is terrible. Did you also encounter those strange tree people just now?" Yu Hongbo asked.
"That's right," Xiang Beifei said, not revealing any emotion.
"Are you all alright?" Yu Hongbo asked.
"Not too bad," Xiang Beifei glanced at Tang He behind him. Tang He was from Qingzhou University, and their team's situation seemed very dire.
