Background / History

The team adopted customized exoskeleton armor as an early uniform. Its life-support system allowed members to survive sudden deployment into vacuum environments; the chest bore the words “Central Continent.” 37 Chu Xuan later developed this into blood-red power armor bearing the same insignia, equipped with cold-fusion batteries, alloy plating, air circulation, combat AI, detection systems, and light and heavy weapons. 58

Under captain Uchiha Gen, the team formalized a philosophy of unity, mutual assistance, and fighting side by side to survive the Main God Space. Its early veteran core included close-combat fighter Zheng Zha, support specialist Zhan Lan, fire-support veteran Zhang Jie, sniper Zero Point, and mercenary gunner Overlord; Chu Xuan joined as its researcher and strategist. 51 52

The team’s combat capability expanded sharply through Bio-chips, T-virus evolution, power armor, and electromagnetic rifles. In the Alien mission, seven armored members assaulted a spaceship’s control center, eliminating Alien forces through coordinated firepower, Mental Scan, Mind Link, and combined Telekinesis. 59 63 The team later added and developed members including Cheng Xiao, Wang Xia, Zhang Heng, Ming Yanwei, Zhu Wen, Luo Gandao, and Xiao Honglu. 110 157 222

By the Starship Troopers team battle, the squad consisted of eighteen official reincarnators. It defeated the Deity Team, captured all nine Gene Lock-unlocked members of the South Yan Continent Team, and completed its main mission while gathering major rewards. 222 231 237 240 Its overwhelming strength became widely recognized by rival squads, though the subsequent Shu Mountain team battle forced it to treat its opponents as genuine threats and expand its military, political, and personal power. 268 270 271

Abilities & Skills

Coordinated mental network

Zhan Lan’s Mental Scan identifies enemies and transmits battlefield imagery, while Mind Link enables instantaneous team communication. By the Mummy team battle, she could include all seventeen active members in one channel rather than linking them in batches. 51 158 180

  • Shares reconnaissance and tactical information in real time.
  • Supports synchronized movement, target acquisition, and command transmission.
  • Zhu Wen can supplement the network by observing past events with Time Watcher. 231

Integrated technological warfare

The team combines supernatural power with standardized military hardware and research outputs. Their power armor can be remotely assisted by AI, while Bio-chips and External Brains increase combat and processing efficiency. 58 63 113 127

  • Power armor — Cold-fusion powered, armored, life-support-capable suits with combat AI, sensors, and weapon systems. 58

Story Role / Major Arcs

Early formation and Alien mission

The veterans establish their roles, welcome newcomers, and formalize the team’s survival-oriented philosophy. 51 After receiving upgraded armor and biological enhancements, the squad clears the Alien-infested spaceship and earns substantial rewards for later exchanges. 59 63 68 69

Research and roster expansion

Chu Xuan transforms the team’s recovered technology into a long-term research program, including Bio-chips, the External Brain, Dragon Blood Essence Potion research, and advanced armor. 52 124 127 Cheng Xiao and Wang Xia join as military newcomers, while later arrivals broaden the team’s combat, intelligence, and piloting capacity. 110 157

Mummy team battle

India Team and Forest Team regard the Central Continent Team as a major threat and prepare Cairo, Imhotep, surveillance, and nuclear strikes against it. 155 161 The team survives the nuclear threat, fights the Terracotta Army and Dragon Emperor, and develops its newer members through combat. 158 160 161

Starship Troopers team battle

The team descends into an interstellar war after the other squads have spent more than 5,000 days developing in the world. 231 It divides its forces: Zheng Zha’s sub-team captures the South Yan Continent Team, while Uchiha Gen defeats the Deity Team. 233 234 237 The team returns with extensive rewards and treats the mission as comparatively relaxed. 240

Late-stage cultivation and expansion

After acquiring late-game resources, the team focuses on improving individual growth ceilings, cultivating in other worlds, mass-producing Rank AA Gundams, distributing Ten-Tails, and building the Reincarnation Army. 210 241 246 247

Shu Mountain team battle

For the first time in some time, the Central Continent Team recognizes that its opponents may be comparable in strength. Uchiha Gen orders intelligence gathering and base construction, while Chu Xuan proposes expanding the Reincarnation Army, recruiting local allies, and strengthening the members themselves. 270 271 The squad disperses across Shenzhou to recruit forces, develop assets, and prepare for a prolonged conflict. 272

Trivia

  • “Central Continent” is written on multiple generations of the team’s uniforms: early exoskeleton armor, later power armor, and moon-white Hanfu. 37 58 222
  • The team’s normal post-mission practice is to discuss rewards and enhancements immediately after returning; Zheng Zha and Zhang Jie broke this habit after Starship Troopers. 240
  • Rival teams repeatedly characterize the Central Continent Team as the strongest squad in its team battles. 224 225 268
