Meanwhile, Wu Qi was also busy.

Rescuing hundreds of miners is a dangerous task; the slightest mistake could lead to complete failure.

Moreover, the Xinshan Sect has a considerable number of personnel stationed near the mine.

The Spirit Hall sent a team with many powerful members, but none of them were assassins like Ghost Douluo.

To deal with those hidden sentries on the perimeter, we must take them all into custody as soon as possible; even a single one escaping would be a huge problem for them.

Therefore, Wu Qi had no choice but to use the training squad sent by the Spirit Hall.

These people may not be good at other things, but when it comes to fighting, they are very good at it.

Wu Qi went to the group's residence.

Upon seeing him, the students couldn't help but ask, "Senior Wu, we can't just stay here forever, it's getting so boring!"

The Soul Douluo-level expert in charge of supervising them shouted angrily, "How dare you all speak like that! This is an important figure in the hall, not your senior!"

As he spoke, he turned to Wu Qi, adopting a humble attitude and taking the initiative to apologize: "This subordinate failed to supervise properly and offended you, sir. Please punish me."

Wu Qi waved his hand, faced the group of trainees, and said with a smile, "Since you all can't sit still, then your task is here."

"Time is of the essence, I don't have time to train you. Next, let Senior Tie Niu teach you assassination techniques. At midnight, we'll all leave the city together and pull off a big heist."

Upon hearing that there was a big mission to be done, the trainees were all very excited and wanted to make a great contribution so they could brag about it to their classmates when they got back.

Iron Bull Soul Douluo shook his head slightly, not optimistic about the matter.

These trainees have never even killed anyone, so what do they know about assassination?

If you can't bring yourself to do it when the time comes, you'll really mess things up.

However, since Wu Qi had already decided to use these people, he couldn't object. He could only try his best to teach these students the key techniques of assassination.

How much of the essence they can learn depends on their own destiny.

……

Next, Wu Qi sat aside and watched the group of trainees train.

As darkness fell and Wu Qi saw that the trainees' training was not going well, he had no other options.

He couldn't spare any manpower from other places in a short period of time.

After instructing Iron Bull Soul Douluo to stay and continue teaching, he went out to gather intelligence.

By observing the markings left in the sky over the ages, one can know the deployment of sentries around the mine.

Even if the next operation is destined to encounter unexpected problems, as long as we are fast enough to attack the mine before the experts of the Xinshan Sect can react, we can succeed.

At midnight.

Led by Iron Bull Soul Douluo and many Soul Saint experts from the Spirit Hall, the students quietly left the city.

Iron Bull Soul Douluo was well aware that the training effect of this group was very poor. He could only pray that this group would not cause any trouble. Even if the process was rough, as long as the mission could be completed, he would be grateful.

Within the group, the trainees were whispering among themselves.

"Coming out to assassinate someone in the middle of the night, who exactly are we trying to kill?"

To prevent the news from leaking out, Wu Qi did not tell these people the actual situation.

According to the Spirit Hall, these people only knew that they came out to train, but what does training have to do with assassination?
These students were not children after all, and soon someone noticed something was amiss.

"Even if it's an assassination, shouldn't we operate in a small-scale manner? Judging from Senior Tie Niu's attitude, it seems he doesn't intend for us to split up. What kind of operation is it if so many of us carry out an assassination?"

Seeing the commotion coming from the group, Iron Bull Soul Douluo immediately scolded, "What are you shouting about? Are you afraid others won't notice your presence?"

“I tell you, if this mission fails, hundreds of lives will be lost because of you.”

"This is a rescue operation. If it fails, no one can bear the responsibility." "I know you are all geniuses of the academy, each one of you very arrogant. If the hundreds of people waiting to be rescued suffer heavy casualties, you will all be in deep trouble. At that time, you can forget about graduating from the academy smoothly."

With graduation looming, the students immediately stopped joking around and became serious.

It's important to know that even the worst outcome of graduating from the Spirit Hall Academy is being assigned to a small city as a deputy hall master.

Of course, all of this is contingent on graduating smoothly.

If you can't graduate, the best you can do is become a butler.

Who can accept such a drop from management to frontline worker?

Seeing that he had managed to stabilize the group, Iron Bull Soul Douluo breathed a slight sigh of relief.

Weren't those words just spoken to himself?

If the mission fails, he, as the team leader, will inevitably be held accountable by the higher-ups in the palace.

……

After waiting for a moment at the agreed location, Wu Qi's figure fell from the sky.

This time, through aerial reconnaissance, he has roughly figured out the situation of the mine.

Upon returning, he immediately laid out the route map he had drawn along the way in front of Iron Bull Soul Douluo.

"Sir, I am worried that these trainees will not be able to carry out the assassination mission well. Once our whereabouts are exposed, those hundreds of laborers and Young Master Qian Gu will probably lose their lives."

Iron Bull Soul Douluo might not care about the lives of those laborers, but Eternal Sky was a genius that the palace was focusing on cultivating. If something happened to him, the loss to the palace would be too great.

Wu Qi understood his concerns and said, "These people need to grow eventually. Even if there is a risk of failure, does that mean they shouldn't try?"

"This time, let's broaden their horizons. You and the other strong individuals should pay more attention and provide support for them."

After arranging the details of the task, we began to take action.

Wu Qi possesses the ability to fly, allowing him to survey the battlefield from high above and be ready to provide support at any time.

……

Inside the mine.

As it was already late at night and the overseers had all gone to rest, Qian Gu Chang Kong immediately approached Zhu Wu Si.

"Rest assured, sir, I have already communicated with the others and we will organize everyone as soon as you give the order."

Qian Gu Chang Kong hurriedly confirmed, "Are you sure there's no leak? Once those people find out, I'm afraid none of us will be able to escape."

Zhu Wusi quickly explained, "Don't worry, sir. Those overseers haven't left the mine, so they probably don't know about our plan."

This is true.

It's unlikely that the Shinsan Sect buried all its members in the mine.

Next, we just have to wait for Wu Qi's side to take action.

This was the first time Qian Gu Chang Kong had faced such a daunting rescue mission, and he couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

As time went by, Iron Bull Soul Douluo led his team of students to the bottom of the mine.

According to Wu Qi's markings on the terrain, there was a hidden sentry force of ten people here, the strongest of whom was at the Soul King level. The others were mostly Great Soul Masters and Soul Venerables.

With the students' abilities, they are more than capable of dealing with the others.

Iron Bull Soul Douluo quickly selected several trainees who had performed well during training from the crowd to cooperate with him.

The remaining trainees remained on guard around the perimeter. (End of Chapter)
