Volume 2: Jade Promise Chapter 38: It is better to pursue the enemy with the remaining courage
After hearing Fang Xu's suggestion, everyone looked at Tang Zheng.
But Tang Zheng shook his head: "That's your business. I'll just watch, I won't say anything."
Tang Zheng certainly would not wade into this inappropriate muddy water at such inappropriate time. It was obvious that an advantage was about to arise in front of him, so why should he intervene?
Another teammate of Fang Xu carried their seriously injured teammate on his back and turned to run, while Fang Xu picked up a broken blade and fought one against three, stopping Xiang Ziran and the other three!
Xiang Ziran and his two companions formed a triangle and cooperated very well.
Whether it is Fang Xu's team or Xiang Ziran's team, it is obvious that they are not temporary teams like Li Zhi!
Fang Xu was alone holding a broken weapon, and he did not have the terrain advantage like Meng Fenghua. Soon, he had several bloody wounds on his body.
"Tang Zheng! I will remember you." Fang Xu kept backing away, looking at Tang Zheng who was watching leisurely, and yelled with red eyes.
Tang Zheng smiled and spread his hands: "If you can pass the test successfully..."
The situation of Fang Xu's team is very bad now, and it is very likely that they will end up with zero points in the last assessment.
If the results of the last assessment are not good, no matter how good the results of the first two are, it will be of no use.
Bang!
Xiang Ziran knocked Fang Xu to the ground with a sword, and his other two teammates each attacked Fang Xu's hands and feet with a knife.
"Ah..." Fang Xu let out a scream.
"You, come back! Otherwise, I will cut off his hands and feet..." Xiang Ziran pointed his sword at Fang Xu and said to Fang Xu's two teammates with a grin.
"Go!" Fang Xu shouted loudly, "With the instructor next to them, they don't dare!"
"As long as no one is killed, the instructor won't care!" Xiang Ziran said with a smile: "If you don't believe it, you can try it?"
Fang Xu's two teammates hesitated for a moment. Although they were not sure whether Xiang Ziran would be stopped by the instructor if he intentionally hurt other candidates after gaining the advantage, they still did not dare to take the risk and try it.
Another teammate of his came back carrying his seriously injured teammate.
"Come, hand over the nameplate in one hand and the person in the other." Xiang Ziran already had a smile of victory on his face.
Although Fang Xu's teammates were reluctant, they did not dare to risk Fang Xu's future in martial arts, so they handed over the last nameplate...
But at this moment, Xiang Ziran felt his waist loosen.
Tang Zixie had quietly appeared behind them, and with a flying knife, the nameplates of Xiang Ziran and one of his teammates were knocked off...
Before Meng Fenghua could stop her, Xiao Lingdang had already rushed out.
She and Tang Zixie worked in perfect harmony. Just when Tang Zixie's flying knife broke the string, she quickly ran over to catch it with her two little hands, and then ran back quickly.
"Fuck!" Ding ding ding, Xiang Ziran and the others' attacks immediately turned and fell on Xiao Lingdang.
However, they used their hands, feet and weapons, but they were unable to break her Xuannv sword intent for a while, and they couldn't even pull off a piece of her clothes. They could only watch Xiao Lingdang retreat behind Meng Fenghua.
The angry Xiang Ziran and the other two chased for two steps, but finally stopped in front of Meng Fenghua.
Three people, six eyes, looking at Meng Fenghua alone, but they all felt that she was a mountain that could never be crossed!
"Haha, I just said that we will both suffer losses, and Tang Zheng and his men will get the advantage for free." Fang Xu laughed happily, "See, I was right, right? You stole one of our nameplates, but you still lost one..."
"Shut up." Xiang Ziran's face turned red.
Xiang Ziran and his friends were faced with two choices...
The first option is to attack Meng Fenghua forcefully. Maybe she is already exhausted, so break through her guards and go in to snatch the nameplate.
But the risk of doing so is that they are not sure about Tang Zheng's fighting ability. Obviously, in the previous battle, his performance has far exceeded the ordinary people's impression of a "master".
The second option is to turn around and leave like Li Zhi and the others, thinking that they are unlucky, taking the nameplate snatched from Fang Xu and the others, and hurry to find other people. If they are lucky enough to come across the nameplate they drew, then their losses can be recovered immediately.
At this moment, a silver light flashed across the sky...
A hook-shaped object, with dim starlight hanging on it, seemed to have life. It quickly stuck to the top and got behind Meng Fenghua. The hook quickly picked up the two nameplates in Xiao Lingdang's hand and flew out quickly again.
"That's Liu Xingjiu's fishing rod..." Tang Zixie only reacted when the two nameplates flew out.
That silver light was the fishing line. However, they didn't know before that the bait in front of Liu Xingjiu's fishing rod could be directly controlled by star power through the fishing line, just like a living thing.
However, a faster silver light had already appeared.
Tang Zheng's starting move swept across the fishing line quickly and accurately. The two nameplates collided in the air and fell right on top of Meng Fenghua's head.
It was obvious that Tang Zheng seemed to have been mentally prepared for the arrival of this fishing line.
It is precisely because of the waiting that I was able to react so quickly!
Xiao Lingling quickly picked up the two nameplates again, and tears appeared in her eyes.
If these two nameplates were really snatched away from her like this, she would definitely cry!
Seeing Tang Zheng's quick reaction and his ability to control the star power to hit even the fishing line, Xiang Ziran and the others did not hesitate any more. They immediately protected the next nameplate in their hands and turned around to leave.
"Master, I didn't pay any attention to Liu Xingjiu..." Tang Zixie was the one who agreed to temporarily team up with Liu Xingjiu, and immediately apologized to Tang Zheng and the others.
"I didn't notice she was that kind of person." Meng Fenghua shook her head, indicating that it wasn't Tang Zixie's fault alone. "She said that taking care of Xiao Lingdang might get her extra points, so she wanted to give it a try. After all, an assessment for one person is also an assessment, and joining our team is also an assessment... I thought what she said made sense at the time."
"She has always taken good care of me and even carried me through a muddy field." Little Bell's innocent heart was also greatly hurt. "But, Master, how do you know that she has bad intentions..."
"Oh, of course I saw it with my eyes." Tang Zheng smiled and pointed to his eyes.
Meng Fenghua and the others started teasing Tang Zheng again, feeling helpless: "We are asking how you saw it 'with your eyes'?"
Tang Zheng snapped his fingers and looked towards the rustling woods not far away: "Didn't you see? There are two nameplates hanging around her waist..."
"Of course I saw this." Meng Fenghua asked curiously, "She had already received a nameplate before she met us. Is there any problem?"
"If you only got a nameplate, then of course there is no problem, but the problem is, I happened to have seen that nameplate... It belonged to a warrior who was in the second group with you. Let me think... The name of that warrior seems to be, Qin Mulin?"
"Ah?" Tang Zixie was obviously impressed by this name .
"She and Qin Mulin should know each other. We heard them chatting for a while when we were gathering." Meng Fenghua took a breath of cold air. "Did she deliberately get close to Qin Mulin for the nameplate?"
Tang Zheng shrugged and said no more.
He had already swallowed several high-quality wound medicines, and left some for Meng Fenghua and the others. He looked up at the quiet woods not far away and said, "I'll take you to a place."
…
As Tang Zheng went deeper into the forest, he had already observed several suitable places to serve as "safe houses" for their final assessment.
Meng Fenghua was actually almost exhausted and could not fight for a short time. Tang Zixie was not good at frontal combat either. Tang Zheng temporarily placed them in a safe place and said, "This cellar is surrounded by weeds and is relatively safe. However, it is possible that someone else has taken a fancy to this place like me, so Fenghua needs to recover quickly."
"Yes." Meng Fenghua understood what Tang Zheng meant and was ready to leave. "The reality of this test has exceeded my previous imagination. Tang Zheng, go and see if Xiaotang and Xuanxuan are in danger."
"Don't worry about them." Tang Zheng smiled and shook his head.
Tang Xiaotang was still very smart. If they met by chance, she knew when to fight and when to flee. Moreover, none of them carried small bells, so as long as their nameplates were not leaked, they would generally not become the target of active hunting by others.
Tang Zheng wiped the dagger, put it away with a "click", and said, "The girl just now still has two nameplates on her body, and Li Zhi and the others also have nameplates on them. Their strengths are already clear. I will go and see if I can catch up with them and take them down one by one..."
"What about me? What should I do?" Little Bell asked expectantly, pointing at her nose.
"You... just count how many nameplates we have now." Tang Zheng touched Xiao Lingling's head, and before she could open her mouth to refute, he added, "I'll bring dinner back!"
After Tang Zheng treated his wounds, he decided to pursue the victory.
Compared to an opponent met by chance, an opponent with whom he has fought before and with whom he has a certain understanding is relatively much easier to deal with. At least he has predicted the weapons and fighting methods of Li Zhi and Liu Xingjiu, so he is more adept at both attacking and defending during the battle.
And that Li Zhi's temporary team...
Tang Zheng had a feeling that if no one cared about him, he might become the biggest variable in the entire assessment!
