Chapter 149 The strong will only move forward

The battle between Hershey University and Savannah University was over long ago.

The difference in combat power between the two teams was not that big to begin with, but the University of Savannah took advantage of the weakest moment of the Hershey University to launch a head-on attack, so the result is naturally gratifying.

Hershkoda's team was weakened again, with only seven combat members left, half of whom were injured.

There was no doubt that more than half of the supplies were looted. The ones that were finally retained were only obtained after the captain of the Hexi University of Science and Technology signed a series of humiliating treaties in exchange for the other party's mercy.

Now seeing the shining name of Shiloh Xinghua on the ranking list, everyone feels very unhappy.

"No wonder we couldn't find anyone after searching both passages. It turns out he was following He Xinengwu to get something for free!"

"Hexi Nengwu is such a loser that he let Xiluo Xinghua get the quest item first. Even though he's number 2, he can still be exchanged for 4000 points!"

"By the way, did Caesar suddenly fall ill? Otherwise, why did he start to flatter Xiluo Xinghua? This morning, he took the initiative to open up the supplies for others to choose from, and now he is helping them earn points?"

"Let's not worry about others for now. Let's just follow the new plan and quickly cross the Frost Tide Sea to get both mission items in our hands. We want to be the first to leave, so that we still have a chance of winning."

"But the wounded still need to rest, otherwise we may not be able to maintain this speed. It would be bad if the White Mang Chaowu and Drake Exploration University ahead of us got ahead."

So despite their lofty ideals, the remaining members of the Hershey University still honestly found a sheltered place and rested peacefully.

Not far ahead of them, the members of Baimang Chaowu's school team had just set up camp.

"No, this scoreboard must be wrong. Clearly, our Baimang Chaowu and Hexi Nengwu were ranked second and first respectively. How come Xiluo Xinghua gained so many points in the blink of an eye and is even higher than Hexi Nengwu?"

"Who would believe this if He Xi Neng Wu didn't deliberately let it go?"

"I just discovered a secret this morning. The arrogant Captain Caesar of Hexi Nengwu seems to be interested in the black-haired freshman from Xiluo Xinghua!"

"Are you talking about Nan Rong? She is a famous figure now. I heard that she has the support of the Campbell family behind her. She may not think highly of Caesar!"

"So, that's why he acted out of character. Otherwise, why do you think that two teams were in the Ice Wind Cave at the same time, but Hesinengwu was overtaken?"

"By the way, don't you think that Caesar is emitting cold air? What's so good about warriors with hard muscles? A gentle wind-type extraordinary person like me is more popular with little girls!"

"Go to sleep quickly after eating, you can dream about anything!"

In another small cave not far away, the members of the Hexi Nengwu School Team, who had just cleared out the strange beasts and started to set up camp to rest, only had time to look at the examination information at this time.

Upon seeing this, they all jumped up.

"This is outrageous! Xiluo Xinghua has even climbed over our heads!"

"Captain, they dare to play tricks right under our noses. When we entered the Icewind Cave, there was no one here. How dare they be so shameless?"

While eating the energy bar, Caesar calmly tore open the isolation film, put a solid water capsule into the cup, gently tapped the heating switch at the bottom of the cup, and poured the warm water into his mouth.

Soon, he finished eating.

The topic of the team members next to him has already been discussed. There is a problem with the system and the score is estimated incorrectly. "After eliminating all the impossible reasons, the last one left is the only correct one." The team's staff said:

"Everyone knows that there is only one level 1 beast in the Ice Wind Cave, and it is the target beast of Mission No. 3 that we will encounter tomorrow. According to the rules of the competition, a level 5000 beast can only be exchanged for 5000 points. Even if Xiluo Xinghua happens to encounter one and defeat it with extraordinary performance, it can only increase 6000 points. But they just increased points at once."

When Caesar heard this, he suddenly laughed.

His smile was very faint: "Only the weak will ask the reasons, while the strong will just keep moving forward."

He stood up. "I'm done resting now. How about you?"

Other team members:.
"Then I'll give you five more minutes. After five minutes, keep moving forward."

Inside the monitoring room of the main building of the group competition venue, the real-time images of each school team were clearly displayed on the big screen, and everything that had happened before was seen by the examiners and the tutors of each school.

If the six schools' mentors didn't take it seriously when Hilo Star Hua was the first to enter with a large amount of supplies, after seeing with their own eyes that Hilo Star Hua used very few supplies that were completely useless and successfully induced a fight between Hershey University, Savannah University and Kama University, resulting in heavy casualties, everyone began to fear this year's Hilo Star Hua.

But if that was all, then this fear had its limits. After all, some battles were inevitable and could not be successfully instigated by just a few bags of supplies.

But what deepened their impression was the route chosen by Shilo Xinghua.

Even if the last-place team had modified their mechas and brought more supplies, how could they have completely given up the relatively easy Frost Tide Sea and Snow Bank Canyon and resolutely entered the Ice Wind Cave?
It was from this time that the chief examiner began to take Xiluo Xinghua seriously.

Before this, his evaluation of the Shiloh Xinghua school team was just four words: flashy and impractical.

Whether it was modifying the mecha, setting up warnings, or using a few backpacks to trick the three school teams, it was all clever tricks in his eyes.

This federal colonel who had experienced the baptism of iron and blood knew very well that in the face of powerful force, all conspiracies and calculations would completely melt away.

Only those who face the toughest challenges can be considered truly strong.

When I look at Shiloh Star Hua through a different filter, everything about it becomes much more pleasing to the eye.

Hide in the dark first, and wait for He Xinengwu to enter the cave and clear the way for him? Very good, not blindly showing off, but having both courage and strategy.

After walking a little bit, they split up and rushed into the route of Mission No. 2? Very good, face up to your own abilities and know when to advance and when to retreat.

Although the performance was a little awkward in a few small battles, it can be seen that the team is getting better and better at working together and their cooperation is becoming more and more tacit.

What satisfied him most was Xiluo Xinghua's performance when entering the cave where the long-clawed pink-bearded monster was.

The team members are highly alert. After discovering a problem, the captain does not act on his own, but listens to suggestions and executes them quickly.

If we were a little slower, the long-clawed, pink-whiskered beast would suddenly attack and there might be casualties.

Faced with a powerful enemy, no one in the team was timid or afraid to fight. Instead, everyone showed their strengths and actively fought the enemy.

Of course, no one expected that this upper-level second-order pink-bearded beast in the Ice Wind Cave would evolve so quickly.
