Two female Archer Star Beads, 1200 yuan.

Sweet!

Plus 1 Yellow Bow, 10 points.

"Jiang Xiao, you've changed," Xia Yan said, watching him silently.

Jiang Xiao: ???

"You're not the little buzz-cut anymore who used to cling to my leg," Xia Yan sighed wistfully, "You've become a little poisonous healer who knows how to kill."

Jiang Xiao: "......"

Xia Yan asked suspiciously, "Will you evolve again in the future?"

Evolve?

What am I?

Some kind of Pokémon?

"Stop messing around. I don't even have an offensive Star Technique. I can only kill low-level Other Dimension creatures. We still have to rely on you for real combat," Jiang Xiao said casually, picking up the captured weapons.

One of the bows was made of wood, and the other was made of metal, painted with bright yellow paint. Jiang Xiao held it in his hand, testing the weight, and found it to be quite light.

With such good equipment, there's no way these savages wouldn't use it. It seems the staff member's so-called "pick up weapons at will" at the start of the competition was just a load of crap.

Xia Yan quickly cut open the skulls with her dagger, her slender fingers pinched the blood-stained Star Beads, and she stealthily shoved them into Jiang Xiao's pocket. "Keep going?" she whispered.

"Old rules, together?" Xia Yan lay prone at the edge of the cliff wall at the top of the cave, looking down.

"Yeah, alright." Jiang Xiao knelt on one knee at the edge of the cliff wall, leaning forward to observe.

"I'll assassinate the one on the right; you take the Yellow Saber on the left." Xia Yan gracefully flipped over, her left hand hooking onto the edge of the cliff wall, her whole body hanging there, looking down.

Jiang Xiao took a deep breath and made the same movement as Xia Yan.

In the distant woods below, Li Wei Yi saw two men and women with giant steel blades on their backs, hanging on the cliff, their movements very synchronized.

1..2..3!

Jiang Xiao watched Xia Yan's lip movements, and the two let go at the same time.

Xia Yan released her left hand, and her whole body fell from the sky.

As her feet landed on the shoulder of one of the saber-wielding men, the head of the other man beside her had already been pierced by a blood-stained, serrated combat blade! It was clear that Jiang Xiao was just as fast!

With a muffled "thump," Xia Yan used her dagger, kicking the corpse to the ground. The assassination was swift and seamless.

She felt both excited and nervous.

She loved this kind of thrilling life, but she was terrified of hearing the footsteps of the savages from the cave behind them.

Han Jiangxue and Li Wei Yi quickly rushed up, confiscated the yellow weapons, and handed all the Star Beads to Han Jiangxue for safekeeping.

"Xia Yan leads the way, using the dagger, rush in quickly, assassinate as much as possible." Han Jiangxue decisively ordered, "Xiao Pi, stay behind me, Li Wei Yi, cover our rear."

Xia Yan rushed in without saying a word. Compared to the dark tunnel last time, this time, torches were stuck into the walls inside the tunnel.

This was what a normal savage tribe's lair should look like.

Last time, A Zhen and A Qiang eloped, and they didn't even light a single torch in the tunnel.

Maybe they both liked the darkness.

Hmm......

The group advanced along the tunnel, which became wider and wider, and they almost ran headfirst into a circular room filled with torches.

There were grass mats everywhere, and they could hear the snoring of savages sleeping.

Xia Yan quickly raised her right hand, clenched it into a fist, and made several hand gestures to the others.

The group carefully approached the entrance of the room, and through the flickering torches, they saw the shadows of the savages.

In essence, this was not a room, but a connecting passage, but this area was relatively open, so there were many grass mats, and several savages were resting here.

The four sneaked in quietly, and everyone except Han Jiangxue drew their daggers.

Jiang Xiao, Xia Yan, and Li Wei Yi each walked to a savage, and at Han Jiangxue's light cough, they swiftly completed the slaughter.

Regardless of how the other two handled it, Jiang Xiao covered the mouth and nose of a savage with one hand to prevent him from making a sound, and with the other hand, he held the dagger and directly slit his throat.

The actions of the team were transmitted back to the temporary camp set up in the armory through the cameras on their foreheads and necks.

Dozens of people were switching back and forth between nearly a hundred split screens, monitoring the situation.

Although there were many participating students, the examiners knew which teams were the seeded teams, and they were willing to take another look at Squad 76.

When they saw the amazing coordination and execution of the four-person team, they couldn't help but click their tongues in amazement.

In a base in southern Beijiang Province, two tall figures stood in a dimly lit room, with only four split screens on the television wall in front of them.

The tall, burly man said, "Not bad, clean and efficient."

Beside him, another tall figure was relatively slender, not as broad-shouldered and burly as the man. His voice was hoarse as he replied, "His aptitude is very good, and he is also very hardworking."

The man turned his head and looked at Er Wei, who was expressionless. He knew that she didn't praise people often. Her "very" could be replaced with "extremely."

"The commander said that if you still can't get over that mission, they will revoke your Chasing Light status and transfer you to Night Watch." The man said.

Er Wei was silent for a long time before replying, "Have you gotten over it?"

Captain Xu Li sighed and did not reply.

"So..." Er Wei said faintly, "he won't become the new San Wei."

Xu Li said helplessly, "The higher-ups have assigned us new team members several times, but you haven't expressed the proper attitude."

Er Wei: "I don't know them. It's impossible for me to unconditionally trust them on the first mission."

Xu Li said, "You are a soldier, and so are your new teammates. You must believe in their faith and loyalty."

Er Wei looked at Xu Li expressionlessly and said, "I once trusted, so there are only 2 people left in our team."

Xu Li opened his mouth wide and couldn't say anything for a long time. He said angrily, "Then you trust him? A child?"

Er Wei pursed her lips, "I saw some potential, and I'm personally cultivating it."

"If you don't compromise, you can only return to your Night Watch status," Xu Li said, "Night Watch doesn't have much freedom, and he won't be your apprentice anymore."

Er Wei clenched her fist, looked at the lurking figure on the screen, lowered her eyes, and said after a long silence, "Where to Night Watch?"

Hearing Er Wei's words, Xu Li's expression stiffened slightly.

......

At the same time, in the tunnel, Jiang Xiao's team had gained 4 silver-grade Star Beads and seized 1 Yellow Saber. Calculating, 2 Sabers and 1 Bow, they had already earned 30 points.

The four-person team moved quickly and quietly. This kind of thrilling and exciting infiltration and assassination was much easier than fighting in a real battle with real weapons.

Xia Yan came to a corner of the tunnel, leaned against the stone wall, and peeked out her small head. What she saw was a winding tunnel, with the nearby firelight brighter, and there seemed to be shadows moving.

She didn't know if it was a fork in the road or a separate room.

Xia Yan quickly retracted her head and held up two fingers to the others, her slender fingers making a "walking" motion again.

Han Jiangxue nodded, switched positions with Xia Yan, squatted down, and turned her head to look. She saw two savages walking towards them.

Han Jiangxue raised her hand, and the space at the corner layered upon itself. Unfortunately, the two of them were not walking side by side.

Through the overlapping and intersecting space, Han Jiangxue watched as one of the savages walked into its shattered space. She lightly flicked her left index finger, and a gust of wind swept through, causing the savage behind him to scream and crash into the savage in front, and the two disappeared directly into the shattered space.

The savage's short howl stopped abruptly, but it was unusually harsh in the quiet tunnel.

From the entrance where the shadows were moving nearby, there were several savage roars, but within a few seconds, they were overwhelmed by a majestic male voice.

Everyone was terrified, although it didn't matter even if the battle started, but this kind of taste was indeed too thrilling and exciting.

The cave fell silent again. The four looked at each other, and under Han Jiangxue's order, Xia Yan walked forward in a low crouch.

Finally, she arrived at the entrance with the bright firelight. Xia Yan took a deep breath, pushed off with her feet, somersaulted, and flashed to the other side of the entrance.

Han Jiangxue on the left side of the entrance raised her eyebrows and looked at Xia Yan with a questioning expression.

Xia Yan put the dagger back into the sheath on her right thigh, and with her backhand, placed it on the giant blade hilt behind her, and whispered, "Too many, can't assassinate."

Han Jiangxue stretched out one hand, and star power gathered in her palm. A spark of fire flickered up and gradually condensed into a ball.

"Li Wei Yi, prepare Flame Split, Xia Yan, activate Scorching Flame, listen to my command." Han Jiangxue leaned against the wall.

Li Wei Yi came to face Han Jiangxue, bent one leg, and kicked off the wall, ready.

"3..2..1!" Han Jiangxue threw a burning explosive flame ball directly into the entrance like a grenade with a backhand.

Jiang Xiao couldn't help but whisper, "Fire in the hole~"
