With the team officially established, Fang Zheng began the next phase of his plan.
For everyone else, however, it was a nightmare.
Asuna and Black Cat were already used to Fang Zheng's special training, but for Leafa and the others who had joined later, this unheard-of training left them groaning in misery. Gabriel in particular had only lasted one morning on her first day before clamoring to quit the group and go home.
