The Grey Wolf Team, over seventy young people, stood neatly where they usually trained, as if waiting for someone.

Although there seemed to be some underlying suppression in their expressions, the excitement in their brows was undeniable.

They seemed completely unaware of any concerns about their future...

"Instructor Xu is here! Instructor Xu!"

"Instructor Xu!"

"Instructor Xu!"

...

With Xu Fan's arrival, the members of the Grey Wolf Team all brightened up and greeted him warmly, evidently, Xu Fan was the one they had been waiting for.

"You all..."

Xu Fan was slightly taken aback; the competition was over, and in a certain sense, the Grey Wolf Team was officially about to disband.

No one was worried about their future, yet each was so excited, which left Xu Fan somewhat puzzled.

Li Tao stepped forward, his eyes filled with admiration and respect as he looked at Xu Fan, "Instructor Xu, now the whole base is talking about our Grey Wolf Team, talking about our Grey Wolf Team!"

"Before, everyone in the base looked down on our Grey Wolf Team, but now, even the top-ranked Azure Dragon Squad, even the high elders in the base, have to show us respect when they see us!"

"Especially the Crazy Lion Team that used to suppress us; now they're terrified of retaliation from us, they don't even dare breathe heavily when passing by!"

Hahaha!

With Li Tao's proud words, the Grey Wolf Team burst into a roaring laughter.

Previously, the Grey Wolf Team had endured too much humiliation, too much contempt!

A group of young people, in their prime, how could they be humiliated?

Yet, such insults were endured by the members of the Grey Wolf Team for a whole year!

It wasn't until Xu Fan appeared, led the Grey Wolf Team, and fought one battle after another to earn respect—even fear—from everyone!

With the competition's end, the Grey Wolf Team officially rose!

"Now, who doesn't know that the true champion of the competition is the Grey Wolf Team? The so-called Azure Dragon and Ice Phoenix aren't even worthy to carry our shoes!"

"That Elder Liu Fei who announced the ranks is now despised; like a rat on the street, anyone dares to call him shameless to his face!"

"Rumor has it that Elder Liu Fei, fearing Instructor Xu's retribution, plans to flee with his valuables!"

The young members laughed, sharing their joy with Xu Fan.

Xu Fan also smiled, yet there was a hint of forcefulness in his laughter.

In these days of sharing joys and hardships, Xu Fan had already considered these young people his companions.

However, now, in some sense, Xu Fan felt he had personally destroyed their futures!

Sigh!

Xu Fan took a deep breath, his smile fading, replaced by a solemn expression.

Seeing the change on Xu Fan's face, the members of the Grey Wolf Team instantly fell silent, their eyes fixed on Xu Fan.

This was a tacit understanding long formed within the Grey Wolf Team—no matter where or when, everyone's gaze was on Xu Fan, awaiting his orders.

Wow!

However, the quiet didn't last long before Xu Fan's action caused everyone to burst into exclamations.

In front of everyone, Xu Fan bent deeply, bowing to all the members of the Grey Wolf Team.

"Instructor Xu! What are you doing?"

"Instructor Xu, what on earth has happened?"

Everyone was shocked by Xu Fan's action, and chaos broke out within the Grey Wolf Team for the first time.

Under the surprised gazes, Xu Fan slowly straightened up, his face full of guilt.

"Everyone, it's my fault, Xu Fan, for letting you down."

"You all came to the base for your future, but under my leadership, your futures were erased."

Hearing Xu Fan's apologetic words, the Grey Wolf Team fell into silence, not a sound was uttered.

Yet, the entire Grey Wolf Team suddenly burst into laughter.

Hahaha!

A moment ago, they were all shocked by Xu Fan's action, but now, after hearing Xu Fan's words, they couldn't suppress their laughter.

Xu Fan, on the other hand, was bewildered by everyone's reaction.

Hearing their futures were ruined, why were they so happy?

"Instructor Xu, did you forget what you once taught us?"

Among the crowd, Li Tao smiled, his eyes clear and bright.

"True strength isn't about so-called geniuses! Nor is it about being a descendant of a powerful family!"

"The title of a strong person belongs only to those who possess the heart of a strong person!"

Hearing this, Xu Fan's whole body shook.

"Yes, Instructor Xu, today at the competition, we saw the ugly faces of those Hidden World Families with our own eyes! Even if those families begged us to join, we would disdain it!"

"Coming from the Grey Wolf Team, if we join the Hidden World Families and become cannon fodder like those so-called geniuses at the base, wouldn't that greatly tarnish your name, Instructor Xu?"

"Instructor Xu is number one on the Earth List! Even if we can't reach your level, we can't fall too short, right?"

Among the Grey Wolf Team, the young members laughed, tears in their eyes, their brows full of youthful pride!

They are part of the Grey Wolf Team! And the instructor of the Grey Wolf Team is Xu Fan! No matter how lacking they might be, how could they disgrace the Grey Wolf Team or Instructor Xu?! Especially... at this moment of parting!

Sigh!

Xu Fan took a long breath, looking at the laughing crowd, his eyes full of emotion.

When Xu Fan taught the Grey Wolf Team, he hadn't considered the team members at all.

At the time, Xu Fan only wanted to compete for the top three spots in the competition, earn his place in the ruins, and gain opportunities, without thinking about others.

However, with these days of close interaction, unknowingly, Xu Fan already regarded these youths as his companions.

And now, for his sake, these youths didn't even consider their futures.

How could Xu Fan not be moved by such an act?

Suddenly, an idea flashed in Xu Fan's mind, and his eyes lit up.

The end of the competition meant the disbandment of the teams, but it didn't necessarily mean separation.

If the members of the Grey Wolf Team weren't accepted by the major families, Xu Fan would find a path for them himself!

"Everyone, actually, in Jinling, I have a faction called the Lingyan Pavilion."

"I wonder if you all... would be willing to join the Lingyan Pavilion?"

As Xu Fan spoke these words, the members of the Grey Wolf Team, who had been wiping tears moments ago, fell silent.

The next moment, the entire Grey Wolf Team erupted into an overwhelming cheer echoing through the skies!
