Chapter 336: Chapter 270 Beast Desire Organization! Wilderness Mutation!
The newcomer is… Chu He!
An unexpected person is following him, Shi He.
It’s the same Shi He who challenged Zheng Cheng as the first 7-star professionalist zombie general at the start of the school.
Unexpectedly, he came over with Chu He, wanting to join Zheng Cheng’s team.
Zheng Cheng turned to Chu He and said, “I am certainly pleased that you’ve come, but as for Shi He…”
Shi He’s face contorted awkwardly, wanting to say something, but nothing came out.
Chu He spoke lightly: “I am merely a recommender, whether you want him to join or not is up to you.”
“What is your relationship with him?”
“We’re classmates, and our parents also have some connections.”
“Childhood friends?”
Chu He took a deep breath: “Go away!”
“The reason I brought him is because haven’t you noticed the weakness of your team?”
“Weakness? What weakness?”
“There’s no melee professions, or in other words, there’s no main T.”
Chu He succinctly explained: “Your whole team consists of long-range attack and support professionists. Without a main T, defeating the Boss in the wilderness will be challenging.”
“After Shi He was expelled by Dongfang Yang, no one dared to take him in. I only brought him over because of this.”
“Hahaha…” Zheng Cheng laughed heartily: “Well, since you brought him, I will certainly accept him.”
“Shi He, welcome aboard.”
The look in Shi He’s eyes changed dramatically as he excitedly stammered: “Th-thank you, Brother Cheng!”
Of course, the reason Zheng Cheng would dare to accept him would not solely be because of Chu He’s recommendation.
Under the Central Radar Life Monitoring Technique, Shi He’s light spot was not red, but yellow, which represents a neutral unit.
As soon as he agreed to let Shi He join the team, his light spot immediately turned green.
A teammate.
Chu He isn’t aware of one more thing – his team didn’t lack a main T.
Both he and Blood Guanyin could perfectly handle the position of main T.
But having another Shi He posed no burden and could ensure the safety of the rest of the team.
He also saved Chu He’s face, why wouldn’t he go for it?
A nearby loser said: “Welcome aboard, Shi He.”
“Welcome, welcome.”
“Welcome to the team.”
The others also started to greet him and some people even nodded to him.
“Th-thank you.”
Shi He said excitedly.
Since he was expelled from the team by Dongfang Yang, his former peers coldly shunned him, and he also experienced many hostile stares.
The top Ten Hidden Dragons Contest is coming up, but no other team was willing to accept him.
Even though his professional star rating is as high as a 7-star, and he is a scarce main T melee professionist.
He had originally planned to give up when his old schoolmate, Chu He, found him and said he could join a promising team.
He didn’t expect it to be Zheng Cheng’s team!
With the rise of Zheng Cheng and Yao Zhixue during the Newborn Secret Realm test, both of their names are well known in the freshmen area!
Zheng Cheng, a possible divine professionist.
Yao Zhixue, a 9-star professionist, who even killed Shi Feng, also a 9-star professionist, in the secret realm.
These achievements are already being hailed by many as the strongest freshmen in Beijing National University!
Furthermore, he didn’t expect Zheng Cheng to accept him!
At this moment, he couldn’t contain his excitement.
“Shi He, take this. I hope you use this well in the wilderness and protect your comrades.”
Zheng Cheng suddenly produced a golden shield and tossed it to Shi He.
“This, this is… Perfect level equipment!”
Shi He quickly identified the properties of the shield and was instantly left speechless.
Chu He, who was standing nearby, shot a glance at Zheng Cheng; he had intended to just lend a helping hand to his previous schoolmate, but who would have thought that Zheng Cheng would be so generous?
It’s perfect level equipment!
For ordinary professionalists, perfect level equipment could be the most powerful equipment they see in their lifetime!
Above this is the epic level, legendary level, and mythic level equipment!
Most importantly, the perfect level equipment in Shi He’s hand is a type of shield—one of the most expensive types of equipment.
After all, only the main tank could withstand the BOSS’s attacks, giving the other professionists a chance to slay the BOSS!
Zheng Cheng casually said, “I’m giving you this equipment so you can protect your comrades. As long as your performance in the wilderness is good, it’s yours to keep.”
Shi He wanted to say something tough, but his words changed to, “Th-Thank you, Brother Cheng. As long as I’m alive, no one in our team will get into trouble!”
Damn it! I’ll give it my all!
During his time under Dongfang Yang, top-notch equipment was unheard of, let alone gold-level ones.
The benefits were merely coins and materials, incomparable with Zheng Cheng’s generosity.
“Damn! Top-notch equipment…”
“Brother Cheng is so generous!”
“Wah, why wasn’t I born a woman? I want it too…”
“Beat it!”
Zhuo Wen, Zhuo Wu, and Zhuang Shuai standing on the side were filled with envy.
It’s a pity that Zheng Cheng only had this one piece. Moreover, the shield-type wouldn’t suit them.
“Alright, let’s get going. The teleportation should start soon.”
“Yes, Brother Cheng!”
The group headed towards the Advanced Psi-Force Academy.
Zheng Cheng, Yao Zhixue, Chicken, Zhuang Shuai, Zhuo Wen, Zhuo Wu, and the newly joined Chu He and Shi He were leading the way.
Eight people in total.
These eight people comprised Zheng Cheng’s team for the Top Ten Underclan Competition.
Among them, Zheng Cheng, Zhuang Shuai, Zhuo Wen, Zhuo Wu, and Chu He would play supporting roles. Yao Zhixue, Chicken, and Shi He were the only ones who would fight on the frontline.
Of course, Zheng Cheng could be considered as both a supporter and a main fighter…
The group of eight arrived at the Advanced Psi-Force Academy quickly, where a large crowd had already gathered.
Besides students, there were many others whose identities everyone couldn’t determine.
“Hey, look! It’s Zheng Cheng’s team!”
“Zheng Cheng and Yao Zhixue, the two 9-stars freshers, are powerful contenders!”
“The rest of the team members seem so weak…”
“That’s Shi He! How did he join Zheng Cheng’s team?”
“Counting Zheng Cheng’s team, there are twelve teams now. I wonder who else…”
Amid numerous discussions, the group entered the academy.
Upon entering, they observed that hundreds of people divided into discernible groups, each consisting of 8-10 people on the broad square.
For the Top Ten Underclan Competition, each team was required to have no more than ten members.
Thus, when team leaders were recruiting others, they targeted a ten-member team.
But teams like Zheng Cheng’s, consisting of just eight people, were very rare.
“Zheng Cheng!”
Zhou Xinyu and his crew were approaching from a distance. Upon closer inspection, Zheng Cheng noticed several familiar faces.
Ye Xishui, Zhao Wufeng, and a few other up-and-coming new recruits.
“Xinyu.”
The two groups merged. Zhou Xinyu whispered, “Be careful in this Top Ten Underclan Competition. Accidents could happen in the wilderness.”
“Oh? What’s up?”
“We have reliable information that the Cave Beastmen Tribe in the wilderness has obtained information about our competition and might ambush us!”
“How would they know?”
“Some Fallen Ones leaked the information,” Zhou Xinyu said, “However, we have stationed troops in the wilderness area, which should engage their main forces. We would likely face only a small elite squad of Cave Beastmen.”
“At most, some Fallen Ones might join in!”
Zheng Cheng furrowed his brow, asking, “Fallen Ones? From Dawn or Ghostface?”
“Neither.”
Zhou Xinyu sneered, “It’s a Fallen One organization called ‘Beast Desire’ that emerged just this year.”
“Their leader isn’t even at epic level. He’s just a commoner who became a professionist by chance when he found a heritage crystal left behind by a strong Cave Beastman.”
“He was originally a death-row inmate brought in by our human advanced party. Who knew in a survey mission he happened upon a heritage crystal, became a professionist and immediately killed the survey team, fleeing to the Cave Beastmen’s territory.”
“He willingly joined the Cave Beastmen Tribe and recruited many inmates from the death-row camp, becoming a vanguard team of Fallen Ones for the Cave Beastmen!”
Zhou Xinyu continued, “Be careful when you go in. Though they’re not strong — after all, they’ve only become professionists less than a year ago — these people were all death-row inmates before they transitioned. They’re brutal and evil, particularly skilled at crime and killing.”
“Be really cautious!”
