Infinity, our Zhongzhou team has a bright future.

Chapter 153 Zhang Jie: The three of us combined are no match for an opponent.

Li Shuaixi originally thought that Zhao Yingkong had already teamed up with him and would not possibly watch him 'fall to his death'.

But as he got closer and closer to the ground, Zhao Yingkong still hadn't appeared. Li Shuaixi started to panic. Even if he broke free from the fusion with the Saber Servant card and regained his ability to use magic, there wouldn't be enough time for him to use magic to save himself.

Just when Li Shuaixi thought he was going to be eliminated in such a ridiculous way as falling to his death, Zhao Yingkong stepped in. After saving the still-shaken Li Shuaixi, she warned him, "If you call me Yingkong again, you can just wait to die."

Li Shuaixi never imagined that the reason he almost 'fell to his death' was just a form of address.

...No, sister...aren't we old comrades who've been through two worlds together...? Why can't I call you Sakura Sora...?

Thinking about how nothing happened when the big sister Luo Li, Zhan Lan, and Ming Yanwei called her Ying Kong, Li Shuaixi felt that he had guessed the truth, but he dared not ask or say anything, fearing that Zhao Ying Kong would cut him with a knife after hearing it.

Filled with resentment, Li Shuaixi looked at Zhang Jie, whom he had just slammed down from the sky. Then he burst out laughing. Zhang Jie had his hands folded over his chest, his eyes gazing blankly at the blue sky, his expression serene.

At this moment, Zhang Jie was thinking about why he had stayed. If he had insisted on running away when he found Zhao Yingkong, he probably wouldn't have been ganged up on by the two of them.

Zhang Jie's eyes flickered as he looked at Zhao Yingkong, who had already raised her knife, and shouted, "Wait! I have a question! How did you find me? I was hiding it very well."

Zhao Yingkong raised her long sword and replied, "I am an assassin."

"Damn it! How could I have forgotten that?" After receiving Zhao Yingkong's reply, Zhang Jie suddenly realized and said, "Oh, I see!"

Then Zhao Yingkong's long sword slashed down without any mercy.

Seeing this, Li Shuaixi, who was thinking about how to persuade Zhao Yingkong to give him his head, acted before he could think, raising his hand to block a fatal blow for Zhang Jie with his sword.

"Spare his life!" x2
Looking at the two people in front of her who were moving in unison, Zhao Yingkong couldn't help but feel suspicious. Could these two be planning to trick her? Zhao Yingkong secretly became more vigilant, preparing to teleport away immediately if Li Shuaixi and Zhang Jie made any unusual moves.

Seeing that Zhao Yingkong was becoming wary of him, Li Shuaixi immediately held the Holy Sword Balmonk to Zhang Jie's neck and said angrily.

"Cough cough cough Zhao Yingkong, don't be nervous. I'm not with this guy. I stopped you because this old bastard dared to ambush me before! I can't quell my hatred without personally killing him."

After saying that, Li Shuaixi thought to himself, "Since I've said all that, I should get the head now."

Zhao Yingkong glanced at Li Shuaixi, who was looking furious, and then at Zhang Jie, who was grinning smirking. She chose to remain silent and take two steps back.

Seeing this, Li Shuaixi was secretly delighted and swung the Holy Sword Balmonk at Zhang Jie's head. Zhang Jie, seeing this, used all his telekinetic power to resist, shouting, "I surrender! Don't kill me! My abilities are very useful!"

As soon as Zhang Jie spoke, Li Shuaixi glanced anxiously at Zhao Yingkong. Seeing that she looked thoughtful, he used all his strength to try and kill Zhang Jie before she changed her mind.

Seeing that there was a chance, Zhang Jie naturally refused to give up. He also put all his effort into using his telekinetic powers to fight against Li Shuaixi and Xiang Ting, and the two were locked in a stalemate for a time.

"Hmm!!!" "Ah!!!" Li Shuaixi and Zhang Jie's faces both turned red, but neither of them could do anything about the other. At this moment, Zhao Yingkong, who had finished thinking, spoke up.

"Li Shuaixi, wait a moment, let him explain what he's good for." Upon hearing this, Zhang Jie breathed a sigh of relief. His telekinetic power, which had previously been able to contend with Li Shuaixi, weakened somewhat. The Holy Sword Balmonk immediately broke through the telekinetic power's defenses with unstoppable force, slashing down towards Zhang Jie's head.

Zhang Jie never expected that even after Zhao Yingkong spoke up, Li Shuaixi would still have the audacity to strike. For a moment, only one thought crossed his mind: "Holy crap! Young man, you have no sportsmanship!"
With a snap, the Holy Sword Balmonk pierced the ground near Zhang Jie's ear. Li Shuaixi looked at Zhang Jie, who had already closed his eyes in fear, and said to Zhao Yingkong, "Zhao Yingkong, look at this Zhang Jie, he's such a coward, he's already fainted from fright. Why don't we just take care of him?"

Zhang Jie immediately opened his eyes and exclaimed with lingering fear, "I didn't faint! It's...it's...it's just that the sunlight was too bright. I'll close my eyes to cool them down!"

Li Shuaixi clicked his tongue in regret, thinking that he should have pretended to lose control and slashed directly, but it was too late now, and he could only patiently listen to Zhang Jie's profound insights.

Li Shuaixi and Zhao Yingkong only heard Zhang Jie say, "With my mental scanning ability, I can help you two anticipate the enemy's moves and strike first."

The connection between the spirit of the two meetings will enable the two to understand each other perfectly and cooperate seamlessly.

The third ability is to manipulate objects with telekinesis, like a venomous snake lurking in the shadows, which can help the two to kill the enemy with a single blow in battle.

"If the three of us work together, how could anyone in this combat exercise possibly stand a chance against us?"

After Zhang Jie's self-praise, Zhao Yingkong was somewhat tempted by his words.

Although Zhang Jie's final statement, "and there are three of them who can defeat him in one blow," was somewhat exaggerated.

But the first three sentences are correct. If they team up, with Zhang Jie's support, her cooperation with Li Shuaixi will be even more seamless, and their combat power will exceed the limit of 1+1. Moreover, Zhang Jie himself is also a formidable fighter.

So Zhao Ying was tempted. Just as she was about to agree to team up with Zhang Jie, Li Shuaixi spoke up quietly.

"I wonder whose heart that venomous needle will pierce... It's really hard to guess."

As he spoke, Li Shuaixi touched his chest, seemingly unintentionally, hinting to Zhao Yingkong that if she were to cooperate with Zhang Jie, that cunning old fox, she would have to be extremely careful, lest she be tricked by him.

Zhao Yingkong hesitated upon hearing this, thinking about Zhang Jie's past performance... In real danger, Zhang Jie is indeed reliable... But if there is no danger, whoever trusts him is doomed... A certain pseudo-former captain of the Zhongzhou team has a deep understanding of this.

...So the question is, was there any danger in this live-fire exercise?...

...The Supreme God said, "Criticism is criticism, jokes are jokes, but as long as you're not a fourth-tier expert, I guarantee you'll be safe and sound... What, you're talking about Zhang Jie... Just tell me if he 'came out of Nightmare on Elm Street alive'..."

Zhao Yingkong suddenly remembered that Chu Xuan had said that for this combat exercise, he would use reward points to ask the main god for help. As long as someone was about to suffer a fatal injury that they could not defend against, they would be instantly teleported away.

Therefore, Zhao Yingkong concluded that... there would be no danger in this live-fire exercise... which means Zhang Jie is completely unreliable... In other words, given the opportunity, he would most likely sabotage his 'teammate'!
