The moment the youths stepped out of the great hall, they were immediately hit by an ancient, wild aura. Before the group had a chance to take in the canyon's scenery, a sudden, urgent sound came from the sky.
As one, the youths raised their heads. High overhead, several enormous, monstrous birds were diving at lightning speed. Their sharp beaks and cold, gleaming talons were reaching for them from afar!
"AHH—"
A few youths who couldn't dodge in time were snatched up by the monstrous birds. These youths all had the cultivation of the Martial Arts Fifth Layer, but their Fifth Layer cultivation was completely useless against these creatures. After a brief struggle, they were dragged into the sky. One unlucky boy was swallowed whole in an instant, only his thrashing, twitching legs left dangling outside.
"AHH!!"
Witnessing such a horrifying scene, the surviving youths were scared out of their wits. They let out a collective scream and scrambled desperately into the canyon.
