Chapter 275: Harmonious Family

“She’d better not let me see her!” Xia Yan barked as she gritted her teeth while holding onto the handle of the giant sword with shaky hands, seemingly trying to endure something.

“According to the rules of the competition, killing is prohibited. Have they violated the rules? Can we appeal to the organizers?” Li Weiyi asked after a moment of silence.

Violating the rules?

Appeal?

Jiang Xiao felt that the culprits were definitely trying to use the Ancient Warriors to kill them.

Fighting between teams was not prohibited during the competition, and it would be difficult to determine whether the other team had violated the rules or not.

However, Jiang Xiao really didn’t want to complain to the organizers. What if the appeal was successful? What should he do if their team was made to withdraw from the competition? Who was he supposed to seek revenge from?

Don’t complain, just let her stay here. If we run into her again, we’ll have some fun.

Even if we don’t run into her within three days, she will at least be in a hazardous environment. What if she accidentally gets stabbed to death?

Xia Yan said, “Complain to the teacher? That’s not something I’d do. She’d better pray that she doesn’t run into me again. Otherwise, I will stab her…”

Han Jiangxue pressed a hand on Xia Yan’s head and said with a stern gaze, “Shut up.”

Feeling wronged, Xia Yan fell silent and looked at Han Jiangxue with a pitiful gaze. “What are you fierce for?”

Han Jiangxue didn’t hide anything. She slid her palm downwards and wrapped her finger around the headband on Xia Yan’s neck before tapping her ear, gesturing at the miniature camera and invisible earphones.

Everyone understood what she meant. After all, everyone in the country was watching. It was alright to lodge a complaint, but if they wanted to say something else, it would be better for them to keep their thoughts to themselves.

Han Jiangxue’s breathing was rather erratic, but it was not because of fatigue. Due to the halo of Nostalgia, her physical strength was maximized. She was mainly in pain because Jiang Xiao and Xia Yan continuously stabbed her.

As a calm commander, Han Jiangxue changed the subject. “Physical experiment is the standard for testing everything.”

“Distance.” Jiang Xiao also didn’t want that girl to be disqualified. He nodded in agreement with her and changed the subject.

At the end of the day, one would still be able to destroy the Ancient Warriors led by the Ancient Archer General, so long as they kept a proper distance and combined Sound of Silence with Chain Lightning.

Other teams probably wouldn’t bear to use such a large amount of Star Power.

After doing so several times, all of their Star Power would be depleted, and the Star Beads that they collect may not even be enough for making ends meet.

However, Jiang Xiao’s supply of Star Power was terrifyingly abundant, and he didn’t have to consider the issue of Star Power at all. Instead, Han Jiangxue’s vitality becoming saturated was an issue that they had to consider…

A true healer and godlike supportive member will allow the entire team to improve on several levels!

“With this experience, we can hunt down the team led by the Ancient Archer General.” Han Jiangxue looked down at the three of them stowing away the Star Beads and continued, “Next time, Li Weiyi and Xia Yan will stand in front while you use Green Glow appropriately. You don’t have to cause any damage. You just have to stall them. Xiaopi and I will soon be able to settle the main rear output.”

Li Weiyi nodded repeatedly. Although he was a melee fighter, he seemed to have become a guide dog during the battle earlier on. Throughout the entire process, he was telling them where to shoot and run. He did not participate in the battle at all.

He felt that he ought to exhibit his value during the next battle.

Li Weiyi thought to himself, I’m a Shield Warrior! Not a guide dog!

“If the Ancient Warriors are led by a General or a Soul of the Ancient Warrior, we’d better evacuate first and watch how other teams fight them before perfecting our combat strategy,” Han Jiangxue said unhurriedly.

Verbal planning would always seem unreliable.

The battle had truly built the confidence of everyone in the team.

Stay strong!

We can still fight.

As long as Jiang Xiao’s Star Techniques were used appropriately and he had enough support, the output of his team would definitely not be inferior!

Although a team had been forced to withdraw from the competition and three other teams got “smashed,” thus causing the students to be traumatized, Jiang Xiao’s team had used their practical actions to show that true blue would never stain.

They either could or could not make it.

Regardless of how much some might boast and brag about themselves, they would definitely have to scram if they were incompetent.

No matter how much you look down on us, you can’t deny the truth.

Jiang Xiao picked up the torch that was still burning on the ground and carefully delved into the Ancient Imperial Mausoleum with his team.

At this moment, there was a huge uproar amongst netizens.

There were all sorts of live-streams and Weibo posts about the competition. After watching the experience that Han Jiangxue had been through, everyone began cursing at the girl who launched a sneak attack on them.

The viewers of Su Rou’s live broadcast were especially infuriated as they cursed their hearts out.

The viewers of the live-stream were originally equivalent to the fan club and supporters of the team representing Beijiang Province. The fans were exasperated. Not only did they vent their anger online, they actually made phone calls to launch complaints and also went on the official website to report against the girl for violating the rules…

The power of netizens was enormous. Some were watching the live feed of Xiaoqi’s first-person perspective. After all, her team was also close to the Ancient Warriors. Hence, some of the netizens revealed the words that Xiaoqi said at that time.

“We can’t run away. The Ancient Warriors are too fast, and we can’t escape. I only chose to do this because it’s my last resort.”

“Let’s go. Let’s hurry and leave. Let them stand in front.”

“It’s alright. She’s a genius with 30 star slots. They’ll definitely be able to escape the ordeal!”

After those three sentences were revealed, the viewers immediately flew into a rage and began cussing.

“Is being weak a valid reason? What a nonsensical logic. What’s the difference between this and those who justify their unreasonable actions and claim that they’re reasonable just because they’re old or poor?”

“Others should help you just because you’re weak? Just because you’re weak, they’re supposed to let you blow them towards the front? You’re acting like a big baby of society. How could you be so self-righteous about this?”

“You hypocritically said that she could definitely escape the ordeal because she’s a genius with 30 star slots. You’re loud, but you can’t hide your malicious heart.”

“Let me be fair. They only did it out of helplessness. She already said that she knows that they can’t run, so they chose to do that as a last resort.”

“Yeah, yeah. Is she supposed to sit back and wait to die? Are they supposed to wait for the Ancient Warriors to attack them and cause them to withdraw from the competition? This is a competition where everyone’s competing for the top ranks and for obtaining points. Do you think these teams are here for a child’s play?”

“A team like hers can get into the top ranks? What a joke…”

Jiang Xiao didn’t know what the people were saying about the matter on the internet. At this moment, he was shocked by what the girl had done.

Why?

Because people all over the world were watching, and yet, she did something like that without hesitation. Was she too reckless to care about the consequences? Or was her plan well thought out, with good reasons and excuses?

Whatever it may be, the feud had been formed.

Accompanied by the crackling sound of flames from the torch, Jiang Xiao and the rest kept themselves pressed against the wall and walked forward cautiously until a fork appeared, which caused them to become dumbfounded.

No one had a topographic map of that place, and they wondered, Do we make a right turn? Or continue going forward?

“Stay close to the wall, and we won’t get lost,” Han Jiangxue ordered, after which they immediately followed her instructions and executed them. Along the way, they saw some teams marching in their direction and passing by them.

The Ancient Imperial Mausoleum was indeed rather large, and everyone was going forward while keeping their bodies pressed against the wall. The dark stone bricks were carved with delicate patterns, and everyone couldn’t help but be amazed and wonder how long the magnificent project took to be completed.

For Jiang Xiao and the rest, they were no longer in the Ancient Imperial Mausoleum but a massive maze.

In the dangerous maze, the students were rather alert and no one said anything. Instead, they kept their guards up and continued in their own paths.

However, after walking for 10 minutes, Li Weiyi managed to detect that a student from the team that was approaching seemed to want to say something, thanks to his heightened senses.

He frowned, unsure of what that student meant. After walking forward for less than half a minute, Li Weiyi slowed down. He was already at the front. Hence, after he slowed down, the other three at the back slowed down too while keeping their guards up.

“What’s wrong?” Han Jiangxue asked softly.

“There’s someone,” Li Weiyi said as he arched his body and gripped the hammer tightly in his hand.

“There’s someone?” Xia Yan was momentarily stunned, and she carefully looked in front. After everyone left, there were no longer torches on the wall. Hence, it was pitch dark in the Ancient Imperial Mausoleum. Xia Yan gibed with derision. “Is there someone or are there traps?”

Li Weiyi said with uncertainty, “Deal with them like they’re enemies. They’re holding their breaths and are clearly trying to hide.”

Jiang Xiao thought to himself, Indeed, this is the National League. The outside world is simply wonderful and exciting.

There was an old Chinese saying that meant that one should always keep their guards up.

It seems that, if we don’t harm anyone, we really won’t be able to integrate into a big, harmonious family like the National League!
