Ding. Tianji System Prompt: Congratulations to the Huaxia Squadron for entering the Top Ten. Please continue to work hard!
Once Jiang Feng and the Fengxing Squadron’s match had finished, the system’s prompt appeared in their ears as soon as they exited the Arena.
“Haha! I didn’t think that we’d really make it to the Top Ten!” Huang Xiaoyu was so excited that he yelled out when he heard the system’s voice.
Sus, Wanke, and Kalosi had joy on their faces as well.
Other than Huang Xiaoyu, Jiang Feng, Sus, Kalosi, and Wanke all came from the Leisi Area.
One year ago, they were called newbies and they would be bullied no matter where they went.
One year later, they managed to reach the Top Ten in the Tianji Competition as a Professional Squadron. A lot of people would not believe it.
But the Huaxia Squadron was indeed that prominent!
Sus and the others were all very happy that they had entered the Top Ten and wanted to celebrate, but Jiang Feng was frowning.
Huang Xiaoyu then asked him, “Captain, why aren’t you happy that we’ve reached the Top Ten? Is it because you didn’t save the person that you went to save?”
Sus, Wanke, and Kalosi all looked at Jiang Feng.
Jiang Feng then shook his head and said, “I’m just thinking that after five rounds, we didn’t encounter even one Squadron from the Tianmo Area. It feels a bit suspicious.”
He felt that it was strange as after fighting for five rounds, they had not encountered any Squadrons from the Tianmo Area.
There were plenty of people living in the Tianmo Area. They also had plenty of Squadrons.
They would not have missed such a big competition when there was a chance for them to obtain a Secret Treasure.
“Can it be because our battles were too long and we merely missed each other?” Wanke guessed.
“It’s possible. But now that the captain has mentioned it, I also feel that it is a bit strange.”
“The Heavenly Demons in the Xingyue Area have also slowed down their activities.”
…
None of them were fools. After Jiang Feng had pointed that out, all of them became somewhat nervous.
While it was just a coincidence for them to have not encountered any Squadrons from the Tianmo Area, it might be an indication of worse to come.
While the second possibility was quite low, it was not something that they could just ignore.
Especially when they were in such a dangerous and complex world, it could be lethal for them to ignore such possibilities.
“Once we have Feng Qingyang in our squadron, you’ll go with me to the Tianmo Area, Kalosi. No matter what, we’re part of the Xingyue Area. If the Tianmo Area really is plotting something behind our backs, the entire Xingyue Area would be in danger, including us. That’s why we need to scout ahead,” Jiang Feng said to them all.
In truth, he was not doing it for the entire Xingyue Area. He was not that magnanimous.
He wanted to go over to Tianmo Area to take advantage of the fact that he could kill the Heavenly Demons within the Tianmo Area’s safe area, just like when the Heavenly Demons could enter the Xingyue Area’s safe area and commit murder.
He could then get some more Secret Treasures so that he would look even cooler when showing off.
Imagine during a match, he could summon dozens of Secret Treasures around him with a wave of his hand. No matter how calm a person was, they would no doubt become confused and reveal all their openings.
The moment he thought of that, he felt like attacking the Tianmo Area immediately. He wanted to grab the Secret Treasures, the Secret Manuals, the Rare Treasures, the wom… Probably not that.
“Captain, there are guards in between the two areas other than some powerful monsters and dangerous locations. I heard that there are also traps set by Support type players from both sides. Even with the Invisibility Cloak, it would be difficult to make it through,” Kalosi said.
“Don’t worry, I have a way!” Jiang Feng said with a smile.
He recalled how the two hidden Heavenly Demons managed to get into the Xingyue Area.
As long as they could find the hidden passageway linking the two areas, they could then head to the Tianmo Area without causing any disturbance.
Bang, Bang.
Just as they were chatting happily, the gate into the residence had opened up.
When he heard the knocking, Jiang Feng knew that it had to be Feng Qingyang. He quickly went over to open the door.
Feng Qingyang was all alone and he needed a powerful Squadron to support him. If he wanted to break through Heaven Realm Greater Completion, then he could not be dragged down by his original Squadron. If not, he would have to place some attention on them to watch over their growth. He would not have the time to train.
But joining the Huaxia Squadron was different. He had seen how powerful Jiang Feng was. Even though he was extremely powerful, he would not need to worry that Jiang Feng and the others would constrain his abilities.
As expected, when Jiang Feng opened the door, Feng Qingyang was standing outside with an air of pride.
“Senior, we’ve been waiting. Please come in!” He invited Feng Qingyang to enter his residence very politely as he extended his hand.
Feng Qingyang looked at the clean and organized courtyard, he then turned to Jiang Feng and said, “From now on I’m also part of the Huaxia Squadron. You don’t have to call me a senior. We can simply call each other brothers.”
Jiang Feng nodded and said, “Of course, Brother Feng!”
Feng Qingyang looked down at his own chest, he then said, “…Actually, just call me senior.”
Jiang Feng was slightly stunned but then realized what was happening.
The Chinese language had plenty of words with the same spellings but different meanings. Even then, some of the words were still quite weird if used together.
Feng Qingyang would no doubt be quite awkward if he was called Brother Feng because they sounded the same as “Breast Enlargement” in Chinese.
Sus and the others were trying hard not to laugh.
“Senior, this is our Squadron’s badge. Drip a drop of blood in and you’ll be part of the Huaxia Squadron.”
When he created the Squadron, he had gained twelve badges. Other than the one on Feng Qingyang, he had six more badges.
“Alright,” A Sword Chi appeared in Feng Qingyang’s hand, cutting a small wound on his finger. A drop of blood dripped onto the dragon badge and it was quickly absorbed. Feng Qingyang had officially joined the Huaxia Squadron.
“Welcome to the Squadron, senior!”
“Welcome, senior!”
“Welcome, welcome!”
…
After Feng Qingyang had joined the squadron, Sus and the other four all walked toward him to welcome him. The atmosphere was quite cordial.
In order to welcome Feng Qingyang, Jiang Feng had Huang Xiaoyu order takeout from Xingyue Pavilion. Everyone enjoyed a lively lunch.
While Feng Qingyang was a senior, they did not feel pressured at all.
After having a great lunch, all of them had an afternoon nap.
In the afternoon, Jiang Feng left together with Feng Qingyang and Kalosi. He also had Sus, Wanke and Huang Xiaoyu find out where the two Heavenly Demons that had gotten into Xingyue Area could be.
The two Heavenly Demons had killed plenty of people in the Xingyue Area. If he could kill both of them, it would be greatly beneficial for them.
Last time, he found out from the other two Heavenly Demons that they had almost reached Heaven Realm Greater Completion. That was the other reason he wanted to have Feng Qingyang join them. Which was to join him in attacking them. With him, their safety was guaranteed.
Feng Qingyang was considered to be quite high ranking among those who had reached Heaven Realm Greater Completion. He could not be compared with other normal players who had reached the same level.
As soon as he could find out where the two Heavenly Demons were, he would then let Feng Qingyang wear the Invisibility Cloak. With Kalosi and his help, they could take them out easily.
