The entire school embarks on a survival journey, starting from a primeval rainforest.

As the saying goes, "a local official is more powerful than a distant one." Whether it's the permanent council or the five-party meeting, even if they hold the most important power, they are ultimately not institutions that directly interact with ordinary people.

Therefore, many people present were well aware of the importance of the law enforcement team.

They understand even more clearly how important it is to have their own people in the law enforcement team.

Therefore, the selection of personnel for this law enforcement team became the most troublesome issue.

How to balance the interests of all parties and how to select the right person are both things that need to be carefully considered.

These issues are none of Jiang Fan's concern.

Neither he nor Tang Qingyu and the others had that much time and energy to devote to such matters.

Anyway, they had already discussed it. Each of the four parties would send five spirit bodies, totaling 20 people, to form 20 teams. Four teams would be on duty every day, rotating every four days.

As for the team members, Qin Muyao can make arrangements for them.

Led by Jiang Fan, Tang Qingyu, Feng Peter, and Xiang Tian went downstairs to a smaller classroom with him.

As for Chen Qingquan and Chen Ke, along with the other three people they brought, they were left outside the classroom.

"Did you kill any alien beasts today? Did you find anything?" Jiang Fan asked first.

"I killed a mutated cheetah. Just as that person upstairs said, the type of beast has changed," Xiang Tian said.

Jiang Fan and the others nodded. Cheetahs generally live in grasslands, Gobi Desert, and other arid regions. They are known for their running speed, but their fighting ability is extremely weak.

Therefore, it often happens that after finally hunting prey, before one can even enjoy it, it is snatched away by hyenas or other carnivores.

This is why it is often jokingly referred to as the "working leopard".

This type of creature would not normally appear in rainforest environments.

As for the leopard that Jiang Fan killed, it was a creature of the same type as the leopard and jaguar.

Leopards, as apex predators in the rainforest environment, may look somewhat similar to cheetahs, but their fighting abilities are completely different.

"Not only are there more types, but there are also more in number than in the previous days. The concept of 'adding elements' that someone just mentioned makes a lot of sense. It felt like the rainforest was a game when we settled the accounts last night, with a lot of monsters spawning at the same time."

After a brief pause, Tang Qingyu continued, "This morning, many people went out to explore without adequate preparation, and many were injured or even killed as a result, resulting in more casualties than the previous two days."

Peter Feng also said, "That's true. And I've noticed that the beasts seem smarter now than they were a couple of days ago. If the first mutation made them stronger and more aggressive, then this second mutation feels like they've become even stronger and smarter."

Jiang Fan nodded to himself. The defensive measures of "barricades, traps, barricades, and fences" that Ding Rui had arranged to set up downstairs yesterday were clearly attacked by the alien beast last night.

Only a few barricades and traps were triggered, and the traps only yielded one badly injured rodent-like beast; the other traps were never triggered.

However, judging from the animal footprints around the defensive measures, it is clear that many more animals came to the vicinity last night.

It's clear that these beasts have become much smarter than before.

Jiang Fan smiled. He realized that these three people were all "cunning old foxes." They kept bringing up the same issues that someone had mentioned earlier, but they never got to the point.

Since that's the case, he decided to speak for himself: "When I came to the East Campus this morning, I casually killed a monster, and the reduction in psionic energy acquisition disappeared. What do you guys think?"

The three of them looked at him together, and after a few seconds of silence, Tang Qingyu was the first to speak: "This means that the magical power is intentionally controlling the strength gap between the leading and lagging forces, and does not want ordinary people to lose the opportunity to make a comeback from the very beginning."

Peter Feng nodded: "I just don't know if this weakening disappearance only applies to level 2 spirit bodies, or to levels 2 to 4."

"I estimate it to be between level 2 and 4. Based on the current pattern, the mutation should occur in 3n-2 days, while the weakening of psionic energy will occur when the level exceeds this number," Xiang Tian said, stating his guess.

「还有一个问题，2级灵躯是1级灵躯的2倍，你们觉得3级灵躯会是1级的3倍，还是2级的2倍？」冯彼得再问。

Tang Qingyu shook her head slightly, her tone certain: "Arithmetic sequences are more reasonable; geometric sequences would be too terrifying in terms of improvement."

Peter Feng couldn't help but complain, "But the requirements for each level of psionic energy are a real exponential series, and there's also level suppression, which is a bit disgusting."

Jiang Fan nodded and summarized: "You all share my view that the spiritual body should have the same increase in physical strength with each level, but the cost-effectiveness is getting lower and lower."

Therefore, individual heroism is unlikely to be effective in this environment.

To deal with the threat of alien races, we still need more spiritual bodies and the power of the group.

That's why I invited the three of you here. I know resources are limited and competition is inevitable, but if we engage in large-scale internal strife, it will only lead to a slow death.

A good way to avoid internal strife is to divide up the territory now.

"Territory? What do you mean?" Tang Qingyu asked, and the other two also looked at Jiang Fan.

Jiang Fan explained, "The area with the purple beam is closest to my West Campus, so the three major factions are not allowed to come here."

Similarly, we, the people of Xinghuo, will not go to the other three beam areas. As for the cyan beam in the same direction as the purple beam area, it is isolated by other races and there is no need to discuss it.

With this arrangement, if they encounter other powerful forces in the forest and conflicts arise, it will save them time and effort.

The other three thought about it briefly and also felt that this was a reasonable approach. Otherwise, if the four major powers appeared in the same area at the same time, disputes would inevitably arise due to the competition for resources.

Soon, Tang Qingyu chose the northern region of the school where the golden beam was located, Feng Peter took the southern region of the school where the dark blue beam was located, and Xiang Tian was reluctantly assigned to the eastern region of the school where the crimson beam was located.

The reason they were unwilling was because Li Qingfeng had been active in this area.

Nobody wants to clash with this unknown, always-playing-the-wild spirit who's ranked number one.

But Xiang Tian had no choice; after all, he was currently the weakest in terms of strength.

Even with his current level 2 spirit body strength, a single call to action would surely lead to the rapid development of his power, and even surpassing the Honglu Association would only be a matter of time, but that is still a matter for the future.

Jiang Fan continued, "So, for the next period of time, our first priority is to upgrade our strength to level 4 Spirit Body and maintain our leading position."

But more importantly, it is to develop its own power, strive to produce more spiritual bodies, and prepare to deal with alien races.

Everyone should be well aware that the current situation of the Five Offices is only temporary. If anyone falls behind, or if someone is lucky enough to rise to prominence, this situation is likely to change.

Therefore, we, from all four sides, should unite even more to cope with any changes that may occur at any time.

Tang Qingyu and the others nodded in agreement. In any case, the four parties who had cooperated once had a certain relationship and tacit understanding with each other.

If other forces suddenly emerge, no one knows whether they will cause the situation to develop in a better or worse direction.

Rather than facing uncertainty head-on, we should unite and try our best to avoid its occurrence.

The division of territory is essentially the same idea.

They divided up four resource-rich regions, leaving ordinary people to either develop in areas with relatively scarce resources or compete with the four major powers. The outcome was self-evident.

After a pause, Jiang Fan added, "There's one more thing I didn't tell them earlier: rather than trying to avoid contact with other races, I prefer to take the initiative."

Tang Qingyu and the other two were shocked upon hearing this.
