Everyone looked up and listened to Wu Yue in the car.

“This competition is actually special training in the army at the beginning. It’s a joint exercise. Later on, the nature of competition was added. It’s usually carried out before large-scale attacks of the beasts.”

“It is to choose outstanding soldiers to form a team to fight the Origin Beasts at the front line!”

There was a hint of melancholy in Wu Yue’s voice as he looked at Lin Bai with a complicated expression.

“We excluded students in order to preserve our vitality. I didn’t expect them to get the academies to come along this time.”

Wu Yue and Wei Feng exchanged glances instinctively.

“There are two possibilities. One is that they are really short of people and have no choice but to start choosing people from the academy. The other is that Lin Bai is too powerful and has already attracted attention.”

Wu Yue rubbed his brows.

“But the army—”

“Captain!”

Wei Feng shouted in a low voice. There was a hint of urgency in his voice.

“How could you have come down from the front line if it weren’t for those good-for-nothings?”

Lin Bai was a little surprised.

This was the first time he had seen Wei Feng reveal such an indignant expression.

Wu Yue glanced at Wei Feng, who felt that he had misspoken and immediately stopped talking.

Lin Bai raised his head and looked at Wu Yue, his voice filled with understanding.

“Wu…”

Wu Yue shook his head.

“Captain, it’s nothing. I failed in my duty back then.”

“The instructors for this year’s competition are General Li Zhongjing and General Zhang Jian. General Li is a righteous and fair person. General Zhang Jian has made extraordinary contributions repeatedly. He once led people to attack a large-scale Origin Beast group and sacrificed a small number of lives in exchange for the collapse of the beast group back then.”

The car slowly stopped as soon as he finished speaking.

The few of them got out of the car. Lin Bai walked in front and looked at the large camp.

A few blue and white buildings were covered by the forest. The officer guarding the door had a serious expression and his tone was sharp.

Many students came one after another. Their faces were filled with confusion and curiosity, looking young and inexperienced.

Li Tongwu and the other two were also a little nervous and could not help but stay close to Lin Bai.

Lin Bai looked up indifferently and led the few of them up.

The officer glanced at Lin Bai roughly and said coldly to him, “Your papers! Which academy are you from!”

Lin Bai told him the name of the academy and the team.

“Lin Bai.”

The officer was taken aback.

He couldn’t believe that Lin Bai actually looked like this.

“Lin Bai? You are Lin Bai?”

Lin Bai nodded with a calm expression.

“Right. May I ask where we’re staying? Do we have any plans for today?”

The officer regained his composure after a moment. He looked at Lin Bai and said calmly, “Just wait for the order! There will naturally be a notice when it is time to enter your residence. Enter directly!”

Lin Bai led Li Tongwu and the others in. Wu Yue and Wei Feng seemed to be extremely familiar with them. They led them to the first room of the third building after reading the notice.

Wu Yue pushed open the door.

The space inside was huge, as if it had been specially prepared. There were seven beds and a table, and even two bathrooms.

There was also a row of wardrobes by the window.

In the closet were clothes prepared for them, similar to the military uniform, but in a pale green color.

Lin Bai looked up at Wu Yue and was surprised by his voice.

“Are the conditions in the military camp that good?”

Wu Yue had mixed feelings.

“It is better during the competitions. These will have to be demolished later. No one lives here during normal circumstances.”

“We can eat in the cafeteria later. Service usually starts in the afternoon.”

“We’ll probably only stay here for one night. We’ll ascend the mountains tomorrow morning.”

Lin Bai pursed his lips and whispered to Wu Yue, “What kind of competition is this? What’s the content of the competition?”

Wu Yue hesitated for a moment and looked at them with uncertainty.

“It changes every year. I don’t know.”

Moreover, it had been a long time since he had participated in such a competition.

Lin Bai stopped asking. He changed his clothes and immediately turned on his laptop to start writing.

He did not know how long he would be gone for, so he could only try his best to increase his chances. At the same time, he stored it in the manuscript box and planned to bring his phone along.

He would send it out for cash up if anything happened!

He wanted to do an experiment to see if he could cash up at the most dangerous time.

In any case, he felt that this competition should not be life-threatening.

Lin Bai gave everyone another Body Tempering Pills to replenish their strength at the thought of this.

An urgent ringtone sounded when Lin Bai was about to finish writing.

Wei Feng and Wu Yue subconsciously jumped up and shouted at Lin Bai.

“Captain, we’re asked to assemble!”

Lin Bai calmly typed the last line of words and ran out with them.

The ringing had not subsided even when they arrived.

They were the first batch of people to arrive.

Lin Bai stood in front of the seven of them and became the leader.

Those who came later were even punished, but those who came late were students from other academies.

Lin Bai looked up at Li Zhongjing on the stage.

Li Zhongjing’s expression was solemn. His eyes were dignified and solemn as he spoke to everyone.

This time, they could choose a group freely, but it could only be limited to the people from the academy or the same team.

The competition would begin after the speech. There would be all kinds of dangers in the military camp at random times. They could freely move around and prepare things in the afternoon and would enter the mountains the next day.

There would be beasts raised by replicas of Origin Beasts in the mountains and also other dangers. They needed to stay in the mountains for three days and complete their respective missions.

The mission would be sent to everyone this afternoon.

Lin Bai raised his eyebrows.

Soldiers came to distribute the communicators as soon as Li Zhongjing finished speaking. This communicator was also specially made and could only connect with their teammates.

If they gave up on the competition, they could press the red button and wait for help.

After the communicator was sent out, Li Zhongjing and the others did not even say anything and directly called for disbandment.

The soldiers in the army were experienced and dispersed.

However, the students from the other academies looked confused. They reacted for a moment and looked at Lin Bai and the others.

It was as if they were waiting for Lin Bai to make a decision.

Lin Bai smiled helplessly.

He raised an eyebrow at Wu Yue.

“Is there going to be something this afternoon?”

Wu Yue thought about it carefully and shook his head at Lin Bai.

“It wouldn’t under normal circumstances. They would probably get everyone to get used to each other during this period of time. We might not have seen each other much even though we’re from the same army after all.”

Lin Bai stroked his chin thoughtfully.

We don’t have to get used to each other, right?

Lin Bai’s eyes flashed.

“Let’s go back and pack up. We’ll head into the mountains this very afternoon!”
