A little distance away from the gate it was all forest area where Zhao Feng and group were heading into.
"Thanks, brother for the drink." The fatty finally had some glow on his face after drinking the juice from the paper bottle, even the annoyed Zihao was feeling a little thankful.
" Thank you. It doesn't mean I have forgiven you." She snorted and went back to her earlier position.
" Brother, what are you doing with the bracelet?" Ever since they left the entrance he noticed that Zhao Feng had been busy with the bracelet.
" I was just checking its features, everyone come look here." They made a small circle around him.
" After inspecting it, this bracelet has 4 features.
You can use the bracelet to call a staff member but it means your team will be eliminated.
You know that the guard told us already about the ranking but he didn't tell us that it updates the position of the top 10 teams every hour.
The last feature is I believe it to be the zone. There is a hollow circle around the map, I believe it will shorten with time.
"Then the last one would be about the team, right?" hao luoyang finished it before Feng.
" Ya, that's all of it."
" I found a team! " Everyone heard a loud voice in front of the forest entrance, they instantly turned to look towards the forest.
" AAH! AAH! Stop hitting AAh! Me! " The three men were beating the shit out of the fourth one.
" You stupid piece of dogs*t, why the fu*k you started shouting." cursed a man as he kicked his stomach. He had a mushroom hair with pimples over his face, while the other two also had a similar face, the only thing which differentiate them were their unique hairstyles, the second with a liberty spike and last one had a bald head not even an eyebrow. All three of them were dressed in a rock and roll style jacket and jeans.
After beating the man to their heart's content, they turned their focus to the Feng's group.
" Leave half of your token and I won't beat the sh*t out of you lot." said the man with a mushroom cut.
" Yo, Yo, leave yo token out in the open or my brother will beat the shit out yo people." rapped the second one.
The last one just stood there staring at the group.
" Where did these oddballs come from? " Zhao Feng didn't want to laugh but he couldn't help but smile looking at them.
" Hey, you think you should laugh like that?" Zihao reprimanded for not finding anything funny with the situation, she had her bow out ready to shoot at them any second.
" You all should relax." Zhao Feng noticed that she wasn't the only one, as Lauyang had his spear out while Fatty was tightly holding his shield.
" Hey, you three goofballs, stop your act or don't blame me if she shoots you." Zhao Feng pointed at Zihao, who had already pulled the bowstring while aiming at them.
"Brother, what do we do now?" whispered the spikey head.
"We have already come this far, you know we have to get into the academy by any means." The mushroom one didn't want to give up after coming so close to their dreams.
" What the fu*k are you talking about, you piece of sh*t." said the mushroom one out loud.
Erin looked into his eyes and said, "I'll give you a chance; leave or you won't have any chance of passing." He didn't want to waste his time with those goofballs.
The mushroom cut, looking at his brothers, who were hesitating.
" I'll let you leave, sh*thead. Let's go, brothers." They all turned around and left, even the man laying on the ground stood up and left, following them.
"Why did you let them leave?" She couldn't believe he let such an easy target go.
" We are not hunting for the first two days."
" Are you stupid, how are we supposed to get a good ranking on the exam if we don't hunt? " Zihao can't believe this man.
" Brother, don't tell me you are thinking of just passing the exam. Let me tell you that passing can only bring you to the outer level of the academy. You have to be in the top 100 of the exam to enter the inner level of the academy. Then for the core section, let's not talk about pipe dreams." Fatty seemed to have misunderstood his words and started briefing about the rules.
"Sigh… I'm planning to go after the top 10." To clear up the misunderstanding, he decided to reveal his plans.
"Huh?"
"What?"
"..."
"Brother, you can't be serious. I know you are strong, but the top 10 are in a league of their own."
"I don't think we can follow him as our leader. I'm going my own way, if need I can join someone else's team." Zihao couldn't handle more of his nonsense; first he let easy target walk away, now he wants to eliminate his whole team, she would be a fool to stick with them.
"Alright." Zhao Feng sweeped her name from the team.
" I won't take your token, so you're free to go." He knew that what he was saying might be impossible for most of them, but for him, they were just children playing around the house.
" Nice meeting you." She immediately left in search of a new team, she knew with her skills and ranged abilities, she could easily get one.
"Anyone else wanna leave? " asked as he looked at Lauyang and fatty.
"Brother I'm not going anywhere." how can he leave someone who he had called brother.
"Sorry, I can't take that risk." Hau Luoyang also left the team.
"Sigh… brother, what are we going to do next?"
" Nothing, fatty." It was the first time he accepted his presence.
"If you're going to call me fat, then call me chubby Huang."
"Na, fatty fits you perfectly." There was a smooth tone whenever he would call him fatty.
" Alright, but where are we going? " It wasn't the first time he had been called fatty, but still, he would have preferred if people called him chubby Huang.
" We are finding a place hidden enough so people won't disturb us for the next two days." He didn't want to waste time fighting people day and night.
" Hmm, this looks like a good spot." They were standing in front of the shallow cave hidden under two huge rocks joined together.
He entered the cave, took out the tent supplies from fatty's big backpack, and set it up with the help of fatty.
" Brother, don't tell me you are going to read for the whole two days." Zhao Feng was laying in the tent with a book in his hand.
" What do you want me to do, watch you? You aren't a girl that I will watch, nor do I have a fetish to watch fat people?" After saying those words, he went back to reading.
[A/N: if anyone likes to watch ugly people… R.I.P humanity.]
Huang was lost for words.
Sigh… he also took a seat in the corner, then brought out some chips in front of the backpack and started nibbling on them.
For the rest of the day they didn't do anything, Zhao Feng kept reading his book while the fatty was restless the whole time, thinking of ways to defend themselves if someone attacked them in surprise.
Luckily, no one attacked them on the first day, but they weren't so lucky on the second day, as in the early morning, Zhao Feng was keeping an eye on the fatty while it was sleeping soundly.
" Fatty wake up." He tried moving his body, but he didn't even budge.
" Wake up." At the end he decided to slap his cheeks.
Slap* Slap* Slap*
" Mom, don't please… 2 minutes."
SLAP*
This time he used his mana on the slap. "Wake the fu*k up."
" What happened brotheraaaah~"
"Enemies are coming, get your shield." He could still hear the sound of the players walking in the distance.
"Ooooooh~k." he quickly grabbed his shield from the side.
" Do you have a plan, brother?"
Just stay inside and protect yourself if someone sneaks up on you." He might be strong, but he can't protect others from someone he doesn't know about.
"Huh? Brothers, there would be at least three people. Let me help you, I can at least hold one down."
" Don't worry, just make sure you don't get sneak attacked." The only reason he even bothered to wake him up was just so he wouldn't be defenceless even if someone was lucky enough to go past him.
He exited the tent standing up looking at the darkened cave entrance.
Whoosh!
Zhao Feng tilted his head to the left when he felt another incoming ranged attack and defended it with his dagger.
His dagger collided with the mana coated arrow, resulting in a small shockwave, but he deflected the arrow in a different direction.
His hand was still feeling the aftereffects of the collision, barely holding onto the dagger.
Three people walked in from the entrance, he couldn't see their faces, but he knew they were men.
" Do you think he can hit them from such a distance?" asked the right one
" Do you still doubt his skill? He was the one to save your ass from the other group." said the left one.
"Shut up, you both, the person is still standing; be careful when you move. He is strong." The middle one analysed his surroundings carefully, still keeping an eye on the dark figure in front of him.
" Are you people going to just stand?" asked Zhao Feng as he pointed his dagger at them.
Oh, you are the brave one for asking, don't blame us then, The left and right men both moved in sync, taking out their swords from their waists and charging at Feng.
Outside the Dungeon.
A group of people could be seen sitting with hundreds of screens in front of them.
Sir, two marked groups are beginning to fight. The man focused on Feng, who was fighting two young men.
" Hahahaha, I knew I wasn't wrong." The man was none other than the man who tested the participant before their entrance.
"Broadcast their fight. It'll be a good appetiser before the final days of chaos." They have been monitoring the students with drones provided with the system while broadcasting interesting content to the general public through multiple platforms. As such, one platform was Utube, where 10,000+ people were watching the exam stream live.
On the screen, the two young men continued to attack in sync, if one attacked the chest, the other would target the lower half. On the other hand, Zhao Feng also defended against it masterfully, holding daggers into both of his arms. The people couldn't see his face clearly due to darkness still that didn't stop them from going wild on the chat.
[God_my_Friend: Holy sh*t, how the fu*k he is defending against there attack.]
[I_like_my_mum:That man is the beast,]
[ Myth_buster: Oh my buddha, are you sure this fight isn't staged.]
[Pink_Supremacy: Oh my god, I can't believe I'm watching this live.]
[Lonely_Man: Pufff! what did I watched (shock)]
The live chat was filled with comments of shock or disbelief, and the live count began to explode as the fight got more heated.
To Be Continued…
The steam suddenly cut to the man wearing a black suit, sitting in front of the office chair.
" The broadcast will only continue if people will donate their Power Stone." Declared the man.
The people went bonkers in the chat.
[Supreme_Kai: I'll donate your mother,if you don;t bring the broadcast.]
[Master_Roshi_Disciple: Don't worry I'll donate… donate your falling hairline.]
[Battle_is_protein: Motherfuc*er bring the broadcast or I swear I'm a D rank player, I'll find your address.]
The chat was full of curses, while on the other platform, people were having the same reaction.
