Below is a narrow-mouthed, large-bellied terrain, with only one entrance and exit and steep, smooth valley walls surrounding it.

Even Li Pu felt that if he went down, it would be extremely difficult to climb back up.

And at the bottom of the valley, there existed only one magical creature.

If you just looked at its mushroom cap, it was undoubtedly a red-headed mushroom.

Typical round yellow speckles + red mushroom cap, very ordinary.

But the body beneath that cap... was not ordinary.

Unlike other red-headed mushrooms, it possessed fully developed limbs.

And its body wasn't like the typical round mushroom body; instead, it more resembled a human form.

Most remarkably, this guy even had abs.

Muscles bulged everywhere, like those top-tier bodybuilders on TV.

[Crap!]

Caocao: Summoner, this mushroom must have been on steroids!

Even Caocao felt that the opponent should not be underestimated.

Li Pu felt that if this mushroom were to face the mushroom-eating lizard, it was hard to say who would win.

The narrow valley entrance below made it impossible for the tall, muscular mushroom to pass through, no one knew whether it was defending against the mushroom-eating lizard or protecting it.

"D-class magical creature, Bro-Mushroom."

Li Fan, standing beside, timely began his introduction.

"Bro is a generic term for all muscular humanoid magical creatures."

"This guy is a hybrid of the Bro category and the mushroom category."

"But it seems a bit strange; it doesn't look like a naturally bred Bro-Mushroom."

"More like a mutant that mutated for some reason."

"It should be at LV5. If you can take it down, I'll admit you can handle the Southern Forest mission."

"Of course, I won't disclose more detailed information about it to you."

He didn't explain the Bro-Mushroom's habits, moves, combat style, and so on either.

This was also part of the test.

In fact, Li Fan felt that he shouldn't even be here to oversee.

Because with him present, the student's mindset would obviously be more assured, which didn't align with the essence of independent action.

But given the current situation, he had no choice but to witness it personally.

"It's hard for anyone to find this remote place, and it can't get out either."

"Actually, I'm not asking you to take it down immediately."

"So, why don't you first go back and look up information about this magical creature before taking action?"

Seeing that Li Pu seemed a bit hesitant, Li Fan suggested with a smile.

He wasn't concerned about the process as long as he could draw a card.

He had given five weeks, expecting this kind of situation.

"No need."

To his surprise, Li Pu flatly refused.

If it's D-class LV5, he felt he could handle it.

It was just one level higher than the mushroom-eating lizard, and now he had Caocao by his side, so it shouldn't be a big problem.

As the saying goes: Since we're here.

[Crap!]

Following his command, Caocao let out a resounding battle cry and then jumped into the valley.

"Not bad."

Li Fan nodded quietly from the side.

Letting the summoned beast go first was a very safe and correct approach.

It seemed that this kid understood some basic summoner rules.

But...

[Bro-Mushroom!]

[Crap crap crap crap!]

But as soon as Caocao landed, it was immediately pinned down and hammered by the opponent. How useless.

[Crap!]

Caocao: Summoner, save Caocao!

"I'm coming, I'm coming."

Faced with Caocao's call for help, Li Pu didn't hesitate.

He leaped into the valley bottom.

"Move aside."

As soon as he steadied himself, he rushed over and kicked the Bro-Mushroom.

[Crap!]

Caocao: Hail the Summoner, you're the best!

Caocao, freed from trouble, quickly retreated to the side.

"This opponent seems a bit strong."

But Li Pu didn't look pleased.

That kick just now was almost his full strength, but it only made the Bro-Mushroom take a few steps back, evidently unharmed.

It turns out those muscles weren't grown for nothing; they served as armor-like protection.

[Bro-Mushroom!]

Assaulted, the Bro-Mushroom immediately shifted focus, swinging its muscular arm over.

Whoosh!

Before the fist even arrived, Li Pu felt the wind pressure approaching.

Judging by appearance, even such a simple punch had power comparable to the headbutt move of a regular red-headed mushroom.

But for him, it was just okay.

With a little push from his left foot, he quickly retreated to dodge.

[Bro-Mushroom!]

The Bro-Mushroom, of course, was unyielding, and chased with another punch.

Once again, Li Pu pushed off with his left foot to evade.

[Bro-Mushroom!]

Foot tap.

[Bro-Mushroom!]

Foot tap.

[Bro-Mushroom!]

Foot tap.

Thus, a cycle of pursuit began between the mushroom and the man at the valley bottom.

[Crap!]

Caocao: Are you two taking a stroll?

Caocao, who couldn't bear to watch, with a focusing thought, directly activated [Entangle].

Swish swish swish!

Several vines grew from the ground, attacking the Bro-Mushroom.

But it had learned that its vines could definitely not bind this muscle man.

So Caocao opted to tie a small knot with the vines, causing a trip-up.

[Bro-Mushroom?!]

Thud!

Amidst an exclamation, the Bro-Mushroom fell to the ground.

"Nice."

Li Pu praised, then quickly moved to the fallen Bro-Mushroom.

Ladies and gentlemen, he's about to start stomping heads.

However, the Bro-Mushroom certainly wouldn't sit still in this situation.

[Bro, Bro!]

Despite being grounded, it struck a muscle-flexing pose.

Buzz!

A blinding light accompanied by a low hum spread from its body.

"Here comes a common skill of the Bro-type, Muscle Flash."

Li Fan, at the top of the valley, couldn't help but murmur as he watched.

"What's that."

While Li Pu, who was the nearest, was affected by the strong shockwave of the light.

His eyes went completely white, temporarily blinded, and his ears buzzed in ringing.

He lost the ability to pursue momentarily.

So he hurriedly retreated, commanding Caocao to hinder the enemy.

[Crap crap crap!]

Caocao sensed trouble, quickly firing several waves of [Entangle], binding the fallen Bro-Mushroom.

After executing the move, its spirits visibly drooped.

It had to quickly sit to recover energy, preventing further dizziness.

Fortunately, the light wave not only had a small affected range but wasn't very powerful either.

After a brief pause, Li Pu gradually regained his sight.

At the same time, the Bro-Mushroom also broke free from the vine binds.

"The Bro-Mushroom is on guard now, ready to flash whenever you approach."

"How do you plan to deal with such an opponent?"

Li Fan, having lit a cigarette, watched with interest from the valley top.

It was clear, however, that Li Pu had thought of a solution.

"Listen, I have a plan now..."

[Crap crap crap?!]

Through telepathy conveyed, Caocao immediately exclaimed.
