Super Gene Hunting Ground-Chapter 1041 - 1035: New Companions

On the athletic field of the Advanced Academy Department of Flying Leopard Academy, thousands of people gathered together.

Dean Xinghai, Vice Dean Deng Nan, and more than a hundred mentors stood around the field.

Dean Xinghai soared into the sky, stood in mid-air, and loudly said:

"Everyone, please quiet down."

The originally noisy crowd immediately quieted down.

"Today is the day of our Flying Leopard Academy's annual hunting event, which is a traditional grand occasion of our academy,

You usually cultivate within the academy, and although you often have sparring sessions with classmates, seniors, and juniors, these cannot replace real battle,

During the hunting activity, you will face demon beasts with a relatively high Genetic Evolution Realm, exceptional combat power, and fierce temperament. Facing these demon beasts in combat will present you with a life-and-death test,

You need to exhibit outstanding abilities, good psychological resilience, and teamwork spirit to continue to conquer enemies and move forward courageously,

The grand hunt will last for a month, and after a month, I believe you will grow faster through life-and-death combat and become stronger,

Here, I must emphasize safety repeatedly,

Every year, during the hunting event, some people die due to various accidents. Based on our years of summarizing experiences, the real reasons for these deaths are not just the strength of personal combat power, but more importantly, a lack of team spirit,

These people often feel superior with personal heroism, venture deep into the jungle alone, and are attacked and killed by powerful demon beasts,

Conversely, those who closely follow the team rarely experience death, and even if seriously injured, team assistance can turn danger into safety,

Therefore, I must emphasize again that every one of you must have a strong sense of teamwork and not venture alone, or else bear all consequences on your own,

Additionally, this year's event has a special segment,

Many of you may have already received the news that the top ten fighters on our academy's combat power ranking will all participate in this hunting event,

These ten students rarely show themselves, and you may know their names but seldom see them in person,

Among them, the longest has been cultivating at our academy for over thirty years, and the shortest for twenty years. Now, it is time for them to graduate,

To celebrate their graduation, the academy has specially set up a small competition,

Whoever hunts the most and highest-level demon beasts will get first place, and the academy will award the first-place winner with a Two-star Divine Weapon, the Dragon Slayer Sword."

Said Dean Xinghai, taking out a silver longsword from the Space Ring, drawing the sword from its sheath, releasing a white streak of killing aura that pierces the void, shocking everyone.

The students on the field were all shaken, and they praised:

"Wow, a Two-star Divine Weapon. It can instantly defeat anyone below an Emperor Level Realm."

"I've been at Flying Leopard Academy for ten years and this is the first time I've seen the dean spend so lavishly on a graduation gift."

"It's a pity our combat power isn't strong enough; it really benefits these few guys."

"Not necessarily; can't we engage in team combat?"

"You're thinking too much. Even with team combat, we're no match for them. You've never seen how terrifying the top ten on the combat power ranking are, especially the top three leaders, who are at the peak of Empire Level Realm, almost stepping into Emperor Level Realm. They're definitely not opponents we can confront just with numbers."

...

Someone loudly shouted:

"Dean, if our team hunts the highest-level and most numerous demon beasts, can we also participate in the prize competition?"

Dean Xinghai smiled and said:

"The maximum number of people in a team cannot exceed thirty, and the situation must be genuine. You can compete relying on your team."

Immediately, someone mocked in the crowd:

"Even thirty people can't beat those ranked at the top. Hunting demon beasts is even less likely. It's not about having more people, but real skills."

The crowd erupted in laughter.

Dean Xinghai waved his hand and loudly said:

"This hunting competition is led by Vice Dean Deng Nan, and I will keep an eye on it anytime. More than a hundred supervisors will follow the teams,

Teams will act as units, and everyone will have a Tracking Jade Plate. Within a 200-kilometer radius, our mentors can know your approximate location,

If you encounter dangers beyond your control, you can use the rescue signal from the Tracking Jade Plate, and the mentors will rush to rescue you immediately,

However, individuals and teams using the rescue signal cannot participate in the prize competition,

Do you all understand?"

"Understood!"

The crowd collectively answered loudly.

"Well, then I wish everyone good results and a safe return from the hunting competition,

I announce that Flying Leopard Academy's annual hunting competition officially begins."

"Hooray....."

The students on the field gave enthusiastic applause.

Throughout the next day, everyone began to leave the academy one after another and enter the Flying Leopard Mountain Range.

According to the academy's arrangement, the students from the Advanced Academy Department first enter the Flying Leopard Mountain Range, and one day later, those from the Primary Level Academy Department will enter.

Students from the Advanced Academy Department will hunt demon beasts above Empire Level first, leaving lower-level demon beasts below Empire Level for the students in the Primary Level Academy Department.

Team formation is very skilled work.

The academy advocates free team formation among familiar classmates, but besides familiarity, team members also highly value each other's genetic evolution level and combat power.

Those with low combat power levels become a burden to others, so usually, team members have similar combat power, and no one feels disdain for each other.

Gong Yu, Wang Qian, and Cui Yuan had just broken through from Empire Level Primary Level to Empire Middle Level, so those students at Empire Middle Level naturally looked down on the three, but the three also disdained students at the Empire Level Primary Level.

Of course, Yang Xiao is an exception. The three found Yang Xiao a few days ago, asking him to form a team, and Yang Xiao agreed. However, Yang Xiao said one thing,

"You can team up with me, but I have one condition: a team must have one leader, especially when disagreements arise; you must follow the leader's arrangements. If you want to form a team with me, I must be the leader, and you must listen to my arrangements. Is that okay?"

Gong Yu laughed and said:

"No problem, your combat power is so much higher than ours; naturally, you are our leader."

Yang Xiao, Gong Yu, Wang Qian, and Cui Yuan had already prepared some daily items needed for the hunting activity. Gathering together, they once again checked and confirmed before deciding to set off.

Dean Xinghai led two people over.

"Yang Xiao, are you four a team?"

Because of last time's participation in the Heavenly Dragon Academy exchange competition, the dean naturally recognized Gong Yu and the other three.

Wang Qian and the other three saw the dean coming and immediately said:

"Hello Dean, we four are a team."

"Hmm, good, then who is the team leader among you four?"

"Yang Xiao is the leader."

Cui Yuan pointed to Yang Xiao.

Dean Xinghai looked at Yang Xiao, smiled, and said:

"Yang Xiao, I temporarily add two people to your team, how about it?"

Yang Xiao and the other three were stunned, looking at the two people beside Dean Xinghai, a dignified young man and a middle-aged man.

"Let me introduce you, this is Xiao He, and this is Xiao Gang. Xiao He is at Empire Middle Level cultivation, and Xiao Gang is at Empire Level High-Level cultivation. With them joining your team, it should be safer."

Gong Yu and the other three were shocked, unexpectedly receiving two experts from the dean, filled with joy.

Yang Xiao glanced at Xiao He and Xiao Gang, and said indifferently:

"Sorry, Dean, we have enough people and don't need to add new teammates."
