slowly growing stronger. Under the influence of its gluttony and mutation abilities, it finally rose from an ordinary monster to its current state.However, to its surprise, a human it perceived as fo...Boom....

The flying vessel from Shangjing, like all others before it, plummeted suddenly and crashed to the ground.

Only then did Yunfeng and the others realize that this region, having been occupied by monsters for years, had undergone changes in its magnetic field. This caused flying machines to malfunction here.

"Now that everyone is here, the competition can begin."

As soon as the flying boat descended, the leader of the delegation from the capital barked orders.

"Hao Kuang, you old bull, still so rude."

Old Ghost glanced at him, and said with some discomfort.

"Who cares if they've been leading this competition for five years straight, just deal with it."

The former headmaster said nonchalantly.

"Lao Gu, Lao Gui, what do you two think"

"You already said it, what use is asking our opinion at this time."

Both of them complained inwardly, but of course they wouldn't object on the surface.

"Fellow students, I believe everyone has read the competition rules, so I won't repeat them. Here are storage rings that we have specially treated. They can only store mission items. Now, the competition begins."

Everyone received the storage ring, and with bewildered expressions, they looked at the old man in Taoist robes standing at the front.

It starts with the beginning, why don't you let us start in a dimensional space

"Forgot to mention, the dimensional space is located in the center of this continent. You'll have to find it yourselves. The sooner you find it, the sooner you can obtain the mission items. Two months later, meet here. Those who are late will have their scores cancelled. Also, you can't fly there."

After finishing his words, Hao Kuang gave a mysterious smile.

"Damn, can we even play anymore The competition arena needs to be found by ourselves This has never been done before."

"If we can't find it, then it's game over before we even begin."

"Is that the point Can't you see the monsters all over the place How to get past them is what matters."

When the old man spoke, the place immediately erupted.

This is not a joke.

"What are you still fussing about Some teams have already left."

Old Principal Gu, who had always been smiling, suddenly said in a cold voice.

Ping Hai's team suddenly fell silent and then immediately set off.

The three states tacitly divided themselves into three directions, advancing toward the center of the mainland.

"Classmates, are we going to advance separately or together If we're going together, then we need someone to lead the way."

Just as they were about to face a horde of monsters, someone suddenly spoke.

This is indeed a very realistic issue.

A large force of nearly a hundred people, if unable to make unified decisions, would not face any problems when dealing with low-level monsters at the moment. However, as they advance deeper into the front lines, the problems will become apparent.

Then, who will be the one to take charge

After all, this group of people are all geniuses, arrogant and proud. How could they be willing to submit to others and take orders

"I think Hao Xing is a good choice. Ping Hai, as the top student awakened in the Hundred Strong List, is definitely trustworthy."

The one speaking was Yuan Tianqing, the second-ranked player on the Hundred Strong List. The two of them make up a team.

"Hmph, number one on the top 100 list, nothing but a hollow reputation."

Long Kong let out a cold snort.

Before the challenges, he never showed his Pan Gu true form, so now I don't really recognize his identity as the number one in Hao Xing.

He's all talk, no substance. Do you think you're any better You can't even beat a freshman.

Yuantianqing sneered.

"If you have the guts, let's have a go at it"

Longkong's eyes were cold as he stared at Yuantianqing.

Witnessing the tense atmosphere, with swords drawn and arrows nocked, teams from other schools remained silent, watching with a detached curiosity.

"Alright, starting to create internal conflict before even leaving is just a joke."

The elected Haoxing finally spoke, but his posture seemed to have already taken on the manner of a speaker.

Actually, who the real person in charge is doesn't matter that much. What matters is who can step up and stabilize the situation at critical moments. Whoever has that capability takes the lead.

After Hao finished speaking, he found that no one responded.

"Since no one's stepping up, I'll temporarily take the lead. If you think I'm not doing a good job, feel free to speak up. You can also form your own team and push forward independently. Does everyone agree"

Okay, since everyone has agreed, let's get started. We can't afford to fall behind if we don't act now.

Haoxing saw that everyone was silent, the atmosphere a little awkward. It felt like he was performing a one-man show. After finishing his speech, he led his team towards the monster horde.

Although the other teams remained silent, their bodies honestly followed along.

After all, in this situation, a large force acting together would certainly be stronger than a small squad.

"What do we do"

Meng Xin'yi looked at Yun Feng. Ever since Yun Feng successfully challenged Long Kong Gu, her position as captain had become a mere formality.

"Just follow me, let's see and talk about it later."

He feels that this situation probably won't last long, and he can find a chance to leave them later.

"With this kind of format this year, could there be any problems"

Seeing that the contestants from three states had already set off, several team leaders gathered together, their faces etched with worry.

"Old Ghost, we've been too conservative for too long. It's time to make a change, and with change comes sacrifice."

"But they are all still students."

"Students From the day they wake up, they are no longer students. They are each state's best and brightest, we must believe in them."

I think the old Taoist makes sense.

The former headmaster nodded in agreement.

Since they have already set off, we should also get on with our own business.

Three figures then shot into the sky and disappeared, leaving only a dozen or so people guarding three flying ships.

Four days later.

Pinghai Prefecture's massive army finally encountered problems as it advanced.

Now the monsters they face are already at the extraordinary level, which means that personnel at the first level can generate spoils by killing monsters.

A team can indeed progress very well without any conflicts of interest. However, once interests arise, many problems will surface.

"Why should we have to split our loot from the monsters we kill with you Do you share your spoils when you face those powerful beings that are beyond our strength"

The teams from the freshman class were obviously not pleased.

"As you said, you won't be able to win at that time, so should we take you there Shouldn't we offer some compensation"

"Captain, what do you say"

Four teams of freshmen were all looking at Haoxing.

I think you guys should definitely split some of the spoils.

Upon hearing Hao Xing's words, the several teams from Grade One were a bit disbelieving.

"Don't you guys have anything to say You'll be in the same boat as us, being exploited, when you reach your sophomore and junior years."

Looking at the silent crowd, Dai Yi felt a little annoyed.

"Hahaha, Haoxing, is this your vision"

At this moment, Longkong Gu finally couldn't help but stand up.

"You're such a spineless, low-life jerk, only thinking about yourself! I spit on you!"

"You..."

"What do you think you are, Yuan Tianqing You're just a dog to him, and you dare speak to me like that Classmates, since he is so narrow-minded and shortsighted, why should we follow him anymore I decide to leave this team. Who wants to come with me I promise I won't take your spoils of war."

The dragon roared, its voice reaching high into the sky. Immediately upon hearing it, the three teams from Grade One answered the call and followed suit. After them came two teams from Grade Two and one from Grade Three.

This time, the team of four has been divided into three groups after four days of harmony.ngnan Group were to feel resentment towards him, they wouldn't dare to do anything. However, Zhu Gang is different.And he also has a large family, with too many ties that bind him."From now on, don't...
