Chapter 9

However, the two of them were not discouraged, although they still did not group anyone else, but the situation had begun to improve, at least the two of them now had a much better chance of meeting others than before.

Finally, when the sky gradually began to light up, the two successfully formed a middle-aged uncle with a beard at the peak of the early stage of gathering spirits.

Although the strength is a small level higher than the two of them, but at such an old age, they are only at the peak of the early stage of Gathering Spirits, and they know that their cultivation talent is not very good. As long as you can complete the team as soon as possible, and try to improve it by relying on the endless aura in the chip before the end of the rest period, even if you can't break through, the combat effectiveness will inevitably increase. At that time, if there is really a group civil war, then it is okay not to kill the other party, at least self-preservation.

In the next few days, Jiang Chao's team began to slowly improve, but Jiang Chao was still a little dissatisfied. And this dissatisfaction lasted directly until the last day of the required completion of the team, and their team always had only nine people.

Jiang Chao even wondered if someone had been eaten by dinosaurs. Because since they can encounter dinosaurs, others may also encounter them, and no one can guarantee that everyone will be able to escape from the dinosaur's mouth. If this is the case, then Jiang Chao and they are likely to not be able to complete their goal, and their fate will be a little miserable.

None of the nine members of the team were willing, even if they scattered to find this last target.

Time passed minute by minute, and in the last hour, the voice of the man of the day sounded in their minds again. The nine members of Jiang Chao's team suddenly felt desperate in their hearts, but after listening to what the man said, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that the person was just here to broadcast the time for everyone and start the countdown.

It's just that they are destined to breathe a sigh of relief for a while, and if no one can be found in this last hour, then what awaits them is very clear in everyone's hearts.

The person's announcements every minute sounded in the minds of the nine people, as if they had become a talisman. The more anxious they were, the faster they felt that time would pass, and as the last moment approached, the hearts of these nine people began to gradually become afraid. In the end, fear turned into despair, and even if they were unwilling, they could only wait helplessly to accept their fate.

After the man counted down to the last second, all nine slowly closed their eyes, waiting for death to come. At this moment, everyone thought about a lot of things from the past, and this is also the instinct of most people when they know that they are going to die in the next moment.

However, after waiting for a while, they didn't feel any attack on them, and they suddenly became a little curious. Could it be that the rule is just to scare them?

The next thing that man said was for them to understand.

"Alright guys, it's time to team up. Everyone has done a good job, with the exception of one team, which has only nine players so far. Although the root cause is due to a man being eaten by a beast, it is also a part of the test. Everyone is a cultivator, and if you don't even have the ability to escape from the mouth of a beast that has no wisdom, then it's useless to keep you. However, one of the nine is a game-clearer, so the old man can save them from death punishment. ”

"But the death penalty is not avoidable. Now punish them for continuing the rest of the game in a personal way after the recuperation period is over. In other words, they will have to face the other ten-person teams alone in the future. As for whether they can survive or even complete the goal of leaving the island, it depends on their creation. ”

Hearing this, the other eight people except Jiang Chao immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Jiang Chao is the one who cleared the customs, from the original 1,000 people to hide their identities to the current 9 people to conceal their identities, and the difficulty has increased more than 100 times at once.

And this old guy always likes to mention the customs clearer when he has nothing to do, who knows if this old guy will come out again in the future and continue. If he lets others know that he is the one who clears the game, then he will instantly become everyone's public enemy, which makes him feel easy.

Just as Jiang Chao was worried, the other eight people, including Ge Qingmu, hated the person who cleared the game at this time. Although they were temporarily spared death because of this man, if it weren't for him, they wouldn't have been taken to this dangerous Linghai Island.

As for the others, not to mention, each of them originally lived a good life, but they were harmed by Jiang Chao and came here. If it's just that they don't go back, the key is to let them fight each other, and everyone is worried about their lives. Therefore, they also hated Jiang Chao.

Of course, the only thing that can make Jiang Chao feel a little comforting now is that the others don't know that he is the one who cleared the game.

Although his life was saved for the time being, Jiang Chao didn't know whether this was a blessing or a curse, or whether there would be a blessing if he didn't die. After all, he would be greeted by a person who would fight alone, which was indeed in line with his original thoughts, but when he saw so many people with the strength of the mid-stage Gathering Spirit and above, he instantly felt that it was better to keep the team and stay in the team.

Even if there was a chance that someone in the team would be in the dark, it would be better than fighting alone. At least the people in the team are about the same strength as each other, and the threat to their lives is not as great as those above the middle stage of the Gathering Spirit.

"Alright guys, that's the end of the team. In the next 3 days of recuperation, you should get acquainted with each other first, and the official competition will start in 3 days, and the old man is looking forward to your performance."

After saying this, no more voices appeared in people's heads.

At this time, Jiang Chao suddenly felt a glimmer of hope, as if there was a loophole in this old guy's words.

He just said that he wouldn't let the nine of them team up after the recuperation period, but he didn't say that he wouldn't let them form alliances with the others.

Just imagine, if the centaurs on both sides are not completely sure that they will kill each other, they will definitely not rashly choose to do it. Then it is very likely that the two sides will temporarily form an alliance and strengthen their own strength to compete with others.

This happens not only to those squads, but also to the nine of them. It's a big deal that after the recuperation period, everyone will get together and form an alliance.

However, as soon as this idea appeared, Jiang Chao immediately shook his head and vetoed himself. Because he was the one who cleared the game, he didn't want to continue to be involved in those eight people, even if he wanted to form an alliance, at most he would be with Ge Qingmu, who knew him first and had fought together.

However, what Jiang Chao never expected was that this Ge Qingmu was the most insidious of the eight. Jiang Chao was calculated by Ge Qingmu from the beginning, so much so that Jiang Chao almost died at Ge Qingmu's hands in the future. But this is all an afterthought, the current Jiang Chao is just naïve to regard Ge Qingmu as the only person who can be trusted on this Linghai Island.
