Chapter 60 Division of Labor and Cooperation

Zhong Ming jumped three feet high and shouted angrily.

Nanyangzi's mind went blank for a moment, but anger drove him to continue speaking.

"Have you been deaf all this time?

Seeing that the other party had taken the bait, Xuan Jing said in a low voice, "There are so many people on the street, who knows who you're talking to?"

Zhong Ming tilted his head slightly, his tone calm and collected: "Before you speak to someone, call them by their name first, otherwise how will they know who you're talking to? By the way, do you know our names?"

"Um, I don't know."

"Then why should we bother with you? You don't even know our names, which means we have no connection whatsoever. You don't even know us. Is there any need to listen to your opinion?" After Xuan Jing finished speaking, he felt refreshed and even changed his walking posture, swaggering away.

He wished the other person would be so eager to pat him on the shoulder. He was certain that if the other person used too much force, the explosive tag on his shoulder would blow Nanyangzi so badly that even his own mother wouldn't recognize him.

such a pity.

Nanyangzi stood there angrily, pointing his finger at the people who had spoken so rudely, but he dared not make a move. Fighting among soldiers was suicidal.

The four men ignored him and his trembling arms and walked past him.

Nanyangzi did not return to the group.

His team was walking towards him.

The group stood side by side with Nanyangzi, their faces grim as they watched Zhongming's team disappear into the distance.

“Listen up,” Nanyangzi pulled out a lot of spirit stones from his pocket, far exceeding the amount they had agreed on in their little bet. “No matter what the recruit training is like, I’m going to take down their squad.”

The group accepted the spirit stones, and it's unknown what they thought about themselves, but they all felt no guilt.

......

As Zhong Ming and his companions continued their journey, Yue Kaishan laughed heartily, finding his earlier mockery thoroughly satisfying. He was unrestrained in his speech, saying whatever came to mind.

"Hehe, did you see that kid's face? It's the same color as my family's braised pork liver, haha."

Only he truly felt that confronting that boy was of paramount importance.

Xuan Jing slowed his pace and moved closer to Chen Dahai, speaking in a very low voice: "Fellow Daoist, regardless of whether what you said is true or not, the other party will definitely not believe that your leg was broken by your master now."

Thank you all.

Chen Dahai touched the arrow box under the armrest. These teammates are really good. It looks like I'll have to do my part.

It was only then that Yue Kaishan realized that the Cuihong and Xuanjing brothers had spoken up not because they were angry, but to mislead others and keep Chen's secret.

"Oh, my brain."

Xuanjing tried to comfort him, "Fellow Daoist Yue, there is an old saying: 'When the heart is upright, one can do whatever one wants without overstepping the bounds.'"

"Ah? What do you mean?"

Xuanjing: ......

Zhong Ming organized his thoughts and said, "It means that your moral principles are the same as everyone else's. You think what others think is right is right, and you think what others think is wrong is wrong. So no matter what you do, you will not violate the rules because you simply cannot think of doing anything that violates the rules."

"Oh, are you saying I'm rigid?"

“No, I’d say you have a heroic and chivalrous spirit,” Chen Dahai said. As soon as the person in question spoke, Yue Kaishan immediately became happy.

Xuan Jing said helplessly, "Fine, it's all the same."

After passing Nanyangzi, the four of them subtly quickened their pace, tacitly wanting to distance themselves from each other to discuss more internal matters. By this time, they had caught up with the main group ahead.

Many squads surrounded the girl with the red armor and the bow on her back.

They surrounded that elite squad of rangers completely.

They entered the tower together and almost blocked the entrance for a short time.

Taking this opportunity, Zhong Ming led his team to the side, where they also had time for a short meeting.

“My three fellow Daoists, I know that our team has just been formed and we are not familiar with each other or trust each other. Since you have elected me as the captain, I will do my best to fulfill my duties. I will not ask you about your secrets or trump cards unless you are willing to tell me. I hope that during this period, we can work together with one heart and move towards the same goal.”

Zhong Ming made up his mind. This was the first time he had led someone else, and he decided to set an example.

"As you all heard, one of our instructors described us as a team with solid close-combat capabilities and overwhelming firepower. This means that if our team wants to unleash its true combined strength, we need to trust each other and resolutely defend our... um... defend... how should I put it..."

“Strategic positioning?” Xuanjing added.

"Yes, positioning. We must resolutely defend whatever strategic position we are in, as that is the best way to cover our teammates... I'll go first. My physique... is alright, but I don't know any techniques for cultivating physical strength, so I'm not very good at fighting."

“Then you’ll be in the center.” Xuan Jing smiled. Arranging troops and formations was just as interesting as the coordination of different talismans.

"Fellow Daoist Yue, you are strong and robust, so you must be skilled in close combat. Why don't you join me and charge ahead?"

"Of course, my boxing skills are top-notch. Even my great-grandfather thought... uh, my cousin thought they were good." Yue Kaishan thumped his chest loudly. He didn't know any magic, only his fists and feet were good.

Xuanjing thought for a moment and decided that he could reveal some of the talismans he knew. It was impossible to do nothing and hide everything while working together.

"I know how to use the Far-Seeing Talisman and the Explosive Talisman. I can make Brother Yue a big shield covered with explosive talismans so he can swing it around and smash and blow things up. I can also make paper bird talismans so it can carry the Far-Seeing Talisman and fly high to scout the situation. There's only one problem, and that's money."

He silently added to himself, 'It could also make the paper bird fly down with the explosive talisman, but it's painfully expensive.'

The three introduced themselves, and Chen Dahai didn't hold back, saying, "Don't worry, everyone. As for arrows, there are both explosive and poisonous ones, and there's plenty. Just be careful, though. I use quivered arrows, and once they're gone, they're gone. Manually reloading arrows is very slow, so if there's a fight, it's best to resolve it quickly. Once I've used up all my quivers, I won't have any more ways to support you."

When Zhong Ming saw that Nan Yangzi and his group had also reached the front of the tower, he gestured to everyone and then shut his mouth.

Someone came out to direct the flow of traffic. After cursing a few times, he saw that it was a group of new recruits and cursed under his breath. He then began to organize people to send the group of unruly kids inside.

"Come on, everyone, move to the back. No gathering. Line up. All of you in the queue, move back."

The group surrounding the girl with the bow on her back was all driven to the back, creating an opening that allowed Zhong Ming's group to squeeze in from the side.

The eighteen recruit squads were divided into two rows.

Her squad was in the first row on the left, and she was standing at the very back.

Zhong Ming's team was in the second row on the right, and she was standing to Zhong Ming's left front.
