At this moment, everyone in the live stream was eagerly anticipating Ye Feng’s first battle.

They all wanted to know if he could remain undefeated against these mutated animals, just like he had been on the competition field.

And just a moment ago, they finally witnessed the scene they had been waiting for; Ye Feng instantly took down a Fifth Order mutated ram.

However, when the audience wanted to see what came next, the live broadcast’s view froze. If not for the distant grass fluttering in the breeze visible in the video, they would have thought it was stuck.

Moreover, the transmission was only of the image; there was no sound.

Consequently, these viewers were unaware of the plan Ye Feng and his team had previously devised.

"What’s happening, why has it stopped moving?" someone in the live stream immediately asked through the barrage of comments.

"He must be waiting. Just now, Ye Feng opened the map and seemed to arrange some tactics," someone immediately analyzed.

"Are you sure it’s tactics? I just went around to other live streams of Yang City’s contestants, and it seems they have all split up. They couldn’t have decided to go their separate ways, could they?" someone posed a doubt.

At this point, a lengthy comment suddenly caught the attention of many, "Everyone, a friend I asked has some inside information. It seems that before setting out, all the contestants receive a map detailing the general distribution of mutated animals."

"Ye Feng and his teammates are currently in one of the First Level Danger Zones, which contain quite a few Level Four Mutant Animals and a few Fifth Order ones."

"If they really did split up to act independently, it is unlikely they would intentionally choose such a dangerous area."

"In conclusion, it’s highly likely they were discussing tactics just now," the comment suggested.

And this comment was agreed upon by many viewers.

Of course, after agreeing, questions arose: What is Ye Feng doing now? What’s the point of them splitting up? And so on.

But since they couldn’t hear any sound, it was a bit hard to guess.

Mainly because the plan proposed by Ye Feng was somewhat "crazy," and few dared to think in that direction.

It was also because of Ye Feng’s strange action that his live stream began receiving more and more attention.

Initially, many people were watching live streams of their hometown contestants, but at this moment, they all switched to Ye Feng’s live stream.

The number of people discussing the event increased, and naturally, someone suggested that they might be luring monsters. However, after this guess was put forward, few believed it, and their comments were drowned by the remarks of others.

But this speculation did not last for long.

Apart from Ye Feng, there were five other popular contestants from Yang City who had opened their live stream rooms under the organizer’s arrangements.

As the audience switched between streams, they quickly discovered that, aside from two Sixth Order contestants who directly killed any mutated animals they found,

the remaining Fifth Order contestants, upon locating their targets, were quickly drawing them toward Ye Feng’s location.

"Could this be luring monsters?" someone else raised the thought again.

This time, the comment was not overlooked but garnered agreement from many.

And the developments that followed confirmed this.

...

Zhang Baishan was frantically running through the dense forest, with two Fifth Order mutated wild buffalos chasing him from behind.

When he found them moments earlier, the two buffalos seemed to be fighting for dominance within their herd.

But after Zhang Baishan cleaved each of their heads with an axe, they unified their target and started chasing him exclusively.

Of course, as a Fifth Order Peak contestant with two exquisite martial arts skills, Zhang Baishan was confident that he could take on both and kill the two mutated wild buffalos if it came down to a fight.

However, considering the thick skin and tough flesh of the mutated wild buffalos, Zhang Baishan estimated that it would take him at least 15 minutes to potentially kill them.

That was if they didn’t attempt to flee.

If during the battle the buffalos sensed they couldn’t win and started to run, needing to be chased down, it would take even longer—half an hour wouldn’t be surprising.

Now it would be much easier; he just needed to lead the two mutated wild buffalos to Ye Feng’s location, which wouldn’t even take two minutes.

Thud, thud, thud!

With each step, Zhang Baishan left deep footprints in the ground, and with every leap forward, he covered a distance of dozens of meters.

From afar, he saw the clearing up ahead.

At that spot, there lay the corpses of more than 30 mutated animals.

Seeing this, Zhang Baishan couldn’t help but quicken his pace. All he had to do was make it over there and he’d be done.

Once Ye Feng took down the two mutated wild buffalos, the kills would be counted as a joint hunt between him and Ye Feng.

Without much effort, he could gain half of the points—utterly relaxing and comfortable!

But at that moment, he suddenly noticed the noise behind him had lessened. Turning around, he saw the two mutated wild buffalo no longer pursued him.

They looked a bit cautious, glancing in Ye Feng’s direction before attempting to flee without further ado.

"Don’t run!" Zhang Baishan was somewhat flabbergasted; this turn of events had not been part of his expectations.

What should he do if he couldn’t lure them over?

Just as he was about to charge over and intercept the two mutated wild buffalo, he suddenly felt a spine-tingling surge of spiritual power sweep over his head.

The next instant, the two mutated wild buffalo in front of him collapsed onto the ground with a thud.

"What!" Zhang Baishan walked over to confirm.

The life force on the bodies of the two mutated wild buffalo was already dissipating. They had obviously been killed.

After confirming the death of the mutated wild buffalo, Zhang Baishan headed towards Ye Feng’s location, but his gaze was filled with even more reverence.

They had sparred before, and he knew Ye Feng didn’t kill people; it was mostly just a bit of pressure.

But seeing Ye Feng effortlessly kill two mutated wild buffalo, which had even stronger defensive power than him, caused a more profound impact.

By the time he reached the clearing where Ye Feng was, more than 20 people had already gathered, and still others were rapidly approaching.

The mutated animals that trailed them, without exception, had all been instantly killed by Ye Feng’s Hammer of Spirit.

After a moment, 30 people regrouped, virtually uninjured, and all the mutant animals above Level Three in this First Level Danger Zone had been killed.

The whole process took less than 5 minutes!

"Let me summarize. After this practical combat, our tactics have been completely viable and incredibly efficient,"

"However, there are issues too. The main one being that we underestimated the intelligence of these mutated animals; they flee at the first sign of danger,"

"Secondly, as time passes, the locations of the mutated animals changes. Cai Wen and Mo Chen both came up empty and needed me to scout again and update them on their locations,"

"So our tactics still need optimizing. If anyone has suggestions, feel free to bring them up while we move on,"

"But regardless, this initial trial of our blade was very successful. Now, we head for the Level 2 Danger Zone." Ye Feng said, taking the lead to move out.

Not long after Ye Feng and his team departed, the sound of helicopters echoed from afar.

It was a helicopter formation, comprising three armed helicopters and seven transport helicopters.

Their reason for being there was simple: to recover the corpses of the mutated animals.

After all, the corpses of high-level mutant animals had high research value and were important biological materials.

Now many new types of special alloys are made from the skin and bones of these mutated animals.

So if this mission could be a great success, it would not only reduce the threat posed by Daxinganling but also produce a large batch of top-tier equipment.

As one wanes and the other waxes, humanity’s advantage will grow ever larger.

At the same time, viewers who had watched the entire live broadcast online were in an uproar.

"The efficiency is terrifying! I’ve calculated it, from the moment they split up to when they dealt with the last mutated animal, it only took 3 minutes and 57 seconds, not even 4 minutes," someone exclaimed.

"I told you before, there must be loopholes in these rules. Just look at how others can play now. I feel like all these people from Yang City could enter into the talent development program," another directly complained.

By the end of this round of fighting, Ye Feng’s points had already exceeded 20,000, because every time he took action, it was an even split with someone else.

In this scenario, the other contestants were essentially tools for Ye Feng to "agro" the enemies.

Of course, following Ye Feng also meant these contestants didn’t miss out on the benefits.

Even though from an overall perspective, they may have lured only one or two mutated animals and split the points, earning very little in the process.

But that’s because this was merely the outer area of Daxinganling, and the number of mutated animals in that spot wasn’t particularly high.

As they delved deeper into Daxinganling and continued to apply the same strategy, their speed of hunting mutated animals would definitely surpass that of other teams and individuals.

Indeed, the subsequent developments turned out just as expected.

Only 5 minutes later, Ye Feng’s live broadcast room became lively again.

"They’ve arrived, they’ve arrived. Using the internal map I obtained for reference, they’ve reached the second hazardous area, and this is a Level 2 Danger Zone," someone knowledgeable spoke up immediately.

"The guy above, how dangerous exactly is this Level 2 area? Do you have any concrete data?" someone promptly commented below.

As expected, the previous knowledgeable person replied, "You’re putting me on the spot, aren’t you? How could I possibly have that precise data? But a Level 2 Danger Zone implies that the predominant mutated animals here are of the Fifth Order, and there might even be the presence of Sixth Order mutated animals."

"And looking at the area, it’s at least six times that of the First Level Danger Zone we just left. Assuming the density is the same, the number of mutated animals in this area could well exceed 300,"
