Fourth Chaos Mission

Luo Jun appeared in a white room, surrounded by six other people.

There aren't many people this time, so it seems less difficult than last time.

Luo Jun's gaze swept over the six people, and he spotted a familiar face among them.

Senior Sister Miao?

Looking at the Round-faced Girl, Luo Jun almost blurted out her name, never expecting to be assigned the same task as Senior Sister Miao.

However, judging from Senior Sister Miao's appearance, she seemed a bit dazed and lacked energy. She was so lively and energetic when we met in the gym just now...

Luo Jun was puzzled. Senior Sister Miao seemed to have noticed his gaze, turned her head and looked at him, her eyes lighting up slightly.

"She won't recognize me, will she?" Luo Jun checked that the mask was fine, then looked away and began to observe the others.

The remaining five, four men and one woman, looked somewhat familiar to Luo Jun, but he couldn't recall where he had seen them before.

Perhaps I've encountered him in the Savage Wilderness or on campus; his face looks somewhat familiar.

Du Jincai must have some extraordinary abilities to be able to manage the supernatural security of a city.

The Security Team... Luo Jun thought for a moment, and figured he should be at the same level as Captain Cheng in Ningdong, basically capable of handling supernatural security issues in a city.

Everyone shook their heads.

"My name is Du Jincai, and I'm also from the Yuan Cultivation Society," the tall man who spoke first introduced himself. "I'm from Kansai, Martial Combat Faction, and a Security Team."

"Zhu Sanyang, the Shapeshifting Faction... hiccup..." The speaker was a young man of about twenty-four or twenty-five years old. He looked very thin, but his voice was very deep. He was interrupted by a burp halfway through his introduction.

"Looks like another Amusement Park Mission..." the man sighed. "Since I started taking on Tier A Mission, amusement park missions have been popping up more and more often."

"An official explorer? That makes me feel safe." The speaker was a young man in his thirties wearing a tank top, with a somewhat roguish air. "My name is Zheng Ji, you can call me Ji Zai or Brother Ji, I'm Elemental School, skilled in water manipulation, no background, just a Rogue Cultivator..."

International students... This is the first time Luo Jun has encountered foreigners on a mission. It seems that regardless of race or ethnicity, as long as they are in Zhendan, they will participate in Zhendan's Chaos Mission.

As for his Master, Old Yuan, he was the leader of the Ningdong Branch and the deputy in charge of security, second only to the Branch President. Although the branch headquarters was in Ningdong, the area under his jurisdiction included a large region, so Old Yuan's power was much greater than that of Captain Cheng Ningdong, and he was his direct superior. Below Captain Cheng were Hao Yong's smaller teams, which were responsible for various city areas.

"Before the rules are released, let's get to know each other first." The speaker was a man with long hair, an artistic air, who looked to be in his forties and had a rather cheerful demeanor. "My name is Cui Zheng Hai, Insight Faction, an official explorer of the Yuan Cultivation Society, and I mainly engage in [Paranormal] activities."

"My name is Elisa, and I'm an international student at the Tianjing Academy..." The speaker was a blonde, blue-eyed Western woman who looked to be around twenty years old with delicate features. "I come from the Federation and belong to the Creation Faction."

Everyone else was waiting for him to continue his introduction, but the kid just blinked.

One of the tall, middle-aged men looked at the others and spoke first, "Everyone, have you received the mission information in your minds?"

That's it?

"That's all..." Zhu Sanyang shrugged. "Just a Rogue Cultivator, nothing much to say."

"Does Zhendan offer sexual candles?" Elisa, being a foreigner, asked with some doubt.

"Not only are there people with the surname Zhu, but there are also people with the surname Ye!" Zheng Ji pointed at Luo Jun and laughed, "If I'm not mistaken, this must be Ye, who's been making waves lately. He certainly has the aura of a big shot!"

Upon hearing this, everyone else looked at Ye, especially the two officials, whose eyes were filled with scrutiny. Clearly, Luo Jun's rapid rise had attracted the attention of the authorities.

"It's me." Luo Jun didn't say much, and looked at the Round-faced Girl was the only one who hadn't been introduced yet.

Senior Sister Miao glanced at the group and said calmly, "Lao Miao Miao, a student at Ningdong University."

"Lao Miao Miao? "Luo Jun was taken aback. Was that her real name?

"Are there people with the surname Lao in Zhendan?" Elisa asked curiously. "Candle, Night, Lao... I learned three surnames I've never heard of before today."

"I don't know about the first two... but this one is possible..." Zheng Ji looked at Lao Miao Miao: "A friend of mine is from the same clan as you. I can introduce you two sometime!"

That really is her real name!

Luo Jun thought to himself, "No wonder everyone calls her 'Senior Sister Miao' or 'Miao Miao '... If they called her 'Old Senior' or 'Little Old Sister,' she'd definitely throw a tantrum on the spot, given her temper..."

"I've heard of you," Cui Zheng Hai said with a smile. "I taught a few classes at the Puhua Mountain Academy, and when we talked about last year's Exchange Meeting, the students all said that there was a girl in Ningdong who was exceptionally talented, almost like a goddess..."

Before Cui Zheng Hai could finish speaking, Lao Miao Miao nodded. "It's the Mystic Faction..."

The Mystic Faction? The group was quite surprised to hear this; it was a rare faction.

The Mystic Faction is also known as the Ninth School. The other eight schools are the Martial Combat Faction, the Elemental School, the Insight Faction, the Illusion Faction, the Spell Faction, the Creation Faction, the Shapeshifting Faction, and the Manipulation School.

While abilities vary widely among members of each faction, some basic characteristics can generally be discerned. For example, the Elemental School control water, Lightning Control, while the Spell Faction cast blessings or Curse— Law Technique that influence others—and so on.

However, the Mystic Faction is unique in that after their abilities awaken, they often lack distinct characteristics of any particular faction. In the end, they can only be classified as a separate faction, where all abilities that are difficult to categorize are thrown together.

However, as people's research into primordial energy deepens, most of the so-called Mystic Faction abilities can be analyzed as the result of the fusion of abilities from multiple schools. Mystic Faction Cultivators simply those who do not have a particularly outstanding talent in any particular school.

Therefore, in the development of Yuanqi to this day, abilities that can still be defined as Mystic Faction are extremely rare. I didn't expect to encounter one here.

Everyone was curious about Lao Miao Miao's abilities, but she didn't reveal anything more, and seemed rather listless...

"The students from the Ningdong Academy, the international students from Tianjing University, Brother Ye, Zhu Sanyang, and Zheng Ji all look quite young. There are more and more young people in Tier A Mission these days," Du Jincai exclaimed. "Truly, heroes are emerging from among the young!"

Cui Zheng Hai laughed and said, "The research on primordial energy is becoming more and more in-depth. The cultivation methods are also more scientific, and the teachers are more excellent. The children now are progressing much faster than we were back then."

After the introductions were completed and everyone had gotten to know each other, words suddenly appeared on the white wall.
