“Should I have instead waited for him to come to kill me then?” Chu Yunfan asked.
Yao Xueyi immediately choked. This was very simple logic. Whoever wanted to kill me, I would kill them!
This was indeed the simplest logic, but there were too many things mixed in between.
The threat of the Charlies and the Jiangs made many people think twice before making a move. This was the invisible benefit of the big families. But to Chu Yunfan, this threat was nothing.
“If he wanted to kill me, I would kill him.” It was such simple logic, but it made Yao Xueyi fall into deep thought.
After a long time, Yao Xueyi said, “I’ve gained a lot of insight from this. My future improvements will be all thanks to you.”
He suddenly understood something. In the past, he had been too restrained. Martial arts cultivation was about stability, but it was also about courage and improvement, especially at a stage like theirs where courage and improvement were needed.
Valor and improvement were not recklessness, but valor!
Was Chu Yunfan not afraid of the Jiangs and Charlies?
Even if one was afraid, some things had to be done. And some people had to be killed.
“It’s nothing. This is the way of martial arts.”
Chu Yunfan did not think much of it. He had always had this kind of pure heart. If others wanted to kill him, he would not make it easy. Regardless of whether the other party was a direct descendant of a high-ranking family or the descendant of a high-ranking official, the result would be the same if they provoked him.
“As for the trouble, that’s something best left for the future,” Chu Yunfan said. At this moment, he no longer cared much. The only thing he could do was get into Federation University. After he got in, everything would be different. No one would dare casually attack Federation University’s students and their families.
With such a guarantee, many things would be much simpler.
“Is it time to think about these things?” Chu Yunfan said as he gazed at the sky, “When night falls, the temperature in Exile Zone 66 will quickly dip. If we don’t find a place to settle down soon, I’m afraid we’ll freeze to death.”
Everyone finally remembered this matter. They could endure the heat and hide in their armor. They could also rely on water to fight against the heat. However, if the temperature dropped to an unbearable level, then it would not be as hot as it was.
“Moreover, there are many nocturnal monsters that are active at night. If we don’t find a place to camp, they’ll surely find us,” Chu Yunfan said.
“Well, let’s think of a way to conquer the base first. As for the future, we’ll talk about it later,” Yao Xueyi agreed after some thought.
“Mm, after the previous test, we’ve figured out the general situation of the base. In front of us is the main gate. Usually, that would be the only place we can attack. We were going to attack the main gate, but then those criminals seized the base and tore down the roof. Thus, we don’t have to attack from the main gate. We can just jump over the wall. And we don’t just want to occupy this base. We also want to give everyone the chance to obtain enough points. I believe that the use of points should be very clear to everyone. That’s all then. When dealing with those scumbags, kill them all. Don’t let even a single one live!” Yao Xueyi proclaimed as he looked at everyone.
“Next, I’ll assign the tasks,” Yao Xueyi said.
The main attacker was none other than Yao Xueyi himself. There was no such thing as sending other teams to their deaths as cannon fodder because everyone had to kill those condemned criminals to obtain points. Therefore, everyone moved forward bravely. There would not be a situation where they only cared about saving their lives. In fact, this was Federation University’s goal.
When Chu Yunfan heard about his mission, he found out he and his team were to take on the role of the secondary attackers and hold back the other experts.
This was because according to Yao Xueyi’s previous investigation, there was a terrifying criminal at the peak of the sixth level of the Energy Refinement Stage in the base. Yao Xueyi intended to deal with this enemy personally.
The others were meaningless because, other than Yao Xueyi, no one present could deal with this person. Even Chu Yunfan, who had just entered the fifth level of the Energy Refinement Stage and killed William, would find it a little difficult to deal with those criminals who were only half a step away from the seventh level of the Energy Refinement Stage.
“Everyone’s task should be too difficult, right? I’ll be the main attacker and will be responsible for killing the leader. Chu Yunfan, you’ll be responsible for covering me. If anyone comes out to support this leader, you’ll be responsible for stopping them. Any questions?” Yao Xueyi said.
“Not at all,” Chu Yunfan said as he nodded in agreement.
“I hope that everyone will work together. Not only do we have to find a foothold to tide over this crisis, but I also hope that everyone here will work together to be admitted to Federation University together and become classmates,” Yao Xueyi said, “Everyone, go back and prepare yourselves. We’ll launch the attack shortly. We can’t afford to wait for the sky to get dark.”
Everyone nodded and returned to their respective teams.
Chu Yunfan too returned to his team.
“Are you all right? Why were you fighting with that guy?” Tang Siyu hurriedly asked. She had just seen Chu Yunfan and William fighting, and watched as Chu Yunfan killed William. She was a little worried. What grudge was it and how had it come to that point?
“It’s fine. Someone just overestimated themselves and sent themselves to their death.” Chu Yunfan did not want to say anything more to not make them worry. “Everyone, get ready. When we attack this base later, there’ll be other people taking the lead. Our main purpose is to hold back the criminals who came to help and not give them a chance to intervene. Understood?”
“Yes!”
“I understand!”
“Understood!”
Everyone nodded and said.
“All right. Everyone, drink some water and replenish your fluids. The next mission will truly test us all. Don’t stray too far from me. Otherwise, if something happens, I won’t be able to help you,” Chu Yunfan instructed.
“Understood. Don’t worry. We know. When you left just now, we already discussed it.” Gao Hongzhi said.
“Great.”
After Chu Yunfan and the others had rested for a while, they soon received a message from Yao Xueyi. It was time for the real attack.
All the students, except for William’s team who had just left, started to gather.
On the wall of the base, the vicious criminals started to stir. They had realized the students’ presence.
War was at hand!
