"Everyone is here, let's go!"

The old man's eyes returned, and he waved his staff gently. A ball of green light enveloped his body, and he slowly rose from the ground, keeping it one meter above the ground.

Piaofei was far away, and the old man's indifferent voice floated from the front. "You can pretend that I don't exist, and I won't give you any help."

"Remember, the moment I help you, it means you lose the qualification to enter Selection Tournament!"

Then, the green light on the old man's body began to become stronger, and the next second he disappeared out of thin air in front of everyone.

"This is the map, and these are our number plates for participating in Demon Hunt Squad Selection Tournament. I give them to you now."

Lin Jialu took out a sheepskin map from his arms, and then several beautifully crafted round tokens inlaid with purple gems.

Long Haoyu came back to his senses, looked at it and put the round token into the ring, his eyes collided with Li Xin and Long Haochen.

"According to our assessment requirements, we need to kill thirty Demon Race in total, so that we have completed the assessment."

"But we act as a team. A team must have its own captain to be immortal. I recommend Brother Haoyu to be the captain of our team."

Lin Jialu continued speaking and handed the sheepskin map towards Long Haoyu.

When Li Xin heard this, he immediately started teasing. "You have some idea. You know that Brother Haoyu is the strongest, but you thought you wanted to steal Brother Haoyu's position as captain."

Lin Jialu and Li Xin are happy enemies. As long as they meet together, there will be absolutely no peace.

After Li Xin responded like this, Lin Jialu immediately got angry. "Li, you want to fight again, don't you think that your strength has improved a lot in the past two years, I can still freeze you into a lump of ice."

"Think I'm afraid of you!"

Li Xin was unconvinced and wanted to have a fight with Lin Jialu.

Long Haoyu took the sheepskin map handed over by Lin Jialu and looked carefully at the mark Demon territory on the map.

"Sister Xin'er, Sister Jialu, please stop arguing now. The most taboo thing about teamwork is disharmony within the team."

"The mission requirements of thirty Demon Race are not troublesome. Then I will serve as the team leader this time."

"It's four hundred miles from here to Demon territory. We can't waste time. We need to set off immediately."

Long Haoyu stopped the fight between the two women and began to announce his arrangements for entering Demon territory.

It was dusk now, and it would take several hours to ride to Demon territory. It happened to be the darkest hour of the night, which was very convenient for them to complete the assessment task.

Of course, Li Xin and Lin Jialu cannot really fight here, and they both agree very much with Long Haoyu's arrangement.

After everyone got on their horses, Lin Jialu walked towards Long Haoyu: "Brother Haoyu, I am wearing a robe and cannot ride a horse. How about you take me with you and I will sit behind you."

"You can pull me down, you still want to take advantage of my brother!"

Li Xin at least came to Lin Jialu's side. Without waiting for Lin Jialu to resist, he simply pulled Lin Jialu onto her horse. "Sit behind me honestly, or I'll kill you!"

Lin Jialu was furious and rolled his eyes at Li Xin in annoyance, so he could only ride with Li Xin honestly.

Long Haoyu selectively did not see it, Long Haochen also selectively did not see it, especially the two brothers Chen Si and Chen Chen.

Li Xin and Lin Jialu are no strangers to this pair of happy enemies.

After everything was settled, Long Haoyu took on his responsibilities as a captain and called on everyone to rush towards Demon territory indicated on the sheepskin map.

Behind a team of six people, the old man was hidden under the magic power. He was not surprised to see that Long Haoyu had indeed become the captain of the team of six people.

"That adult is indeed right. This kid Long Haoyu will indeed become the core of this team."

"If the Lord can give such instructions, it seems that there will be no problems in this assessment."

The old man whispered softly, and then controlled his magic power to support himself and chase Long Haoyu and his group of six people.

A few hours later, night had shrouded the earth. With the number plate of Selection Tournament, Long Haoyu, the group had a simple dinner and then entered Demon territory without any hindrance.

In order not to expose them as much as possible when entering Demon territory, the horses that came from riding stayed in Garrison Area of the Holy Temple Alliance, and Li Xin also let her Rose Unicorn return to its space.

In the darkness, a group of six people advanced the distance silently in Demon territory.

Lin Jialu has a serious case of princess disease, but when it comes to getting down to business, she is still very reliable.

After chanting a few words softly, Eagle Eye Technique was deployed to monitor the surrounding terrain.

Although it is not as powerful as those powerful magicians who can allow Eagle Eye Technique to monitor a range of nearly a hundred miles around, it is still of great help to their current small team.

"Brother Haoyu, there is a hilly area five miles ahead on the left. There is a bush there. We can advance from there." Lin Jialu said.

Long Haoyu agreed, and with the help of Lin Jialu Eagle Eye Technique, he quickly reached the bush over there, and then continued to push deeper.

Every time he passed a place, Long Haoyu would circle it on the sheepskin map and make safety marks. He did not order a short rest until he had advanced eighty miles.

After simply eating some food to replenish some energy, everyone sat together, with many doubts under their nervous expressions.

"It's strange. Why haven't we seen a Demon Race at such a deep distance? How can we lie in wait and wait?" Lin Jialu was very puzzled.

Li Xin looked at Long Haoyu: "Brother Haoyu, you haven't spoken. What do you think of the situations we have discovered now?"

Long Haoyu nodded and looked at Long Haochen: "Haochen, let your Haoyue come out. I will immediately analyze the previous events and arrange the next battle plan!"

When Long Haochen heard this, he immediately asked Haoyue to run out. He gave the little guy this name that had not changed since he came back from Knight Sacred Mountain last time.

The sudden appearance of Haoyue immediately startled several people, but after Long Haochen's explanation, they all relaxed their nerves.

"Sister Jialu just said to set up an ambush and wait for the enemy, but Demon Race didn't show up at such a long distance, so that's something that needs to be considered."

"But the powerful magician Eagle Eye Technique in the Demon Race camp has a stronger effect than you Sister Jialu. We need to assume that we have been exposed to the other party's monitoring."

"The reason why Demon Race didn't show up may be that the other party has already started to play tricks on us, trying to lure us deeper and then annihilate us all!"

"So, the wait-and-see approach doesn't work for us."

Long Haoyu dug into his memory and analyzed it in an orderly manner for everyone to make sure nothing went wrong.

When everyone heard this, their hearts immediately rose to their throats. What they thought was a very simple task made them all nervous when Long Haoyu said this.

When they actually entered the battlefield, each of their faces showed a look of contemplation, and they all thought about what to do next.

Long Haochen noticed that his brother was as indifferent as ever. "Brother, what are your combat arrangements?"

As he spoke, Long Haochen tightened the heavy sword and shield in his hands, and was ready to charge into the battle as a Guardian Knight should.

"My arrangement is quite simple. Since waiting around may not work, let's just make a big fuss and return to Garrison Area as quickly as possible."

"It's better to wait and wait than to take the initiative!"

As Long Haoyu spoke, he communicated with Little Coal Ball through spiritual communication.

"Little Coal Ball, are you sure you didn't feel wrong? Is he following?" Long Haoyu recalled Inspector's soft gaze that was not right at the beginning and asked uneasily.

Little Coal Ball said firmly, "Master, don't worry, I can recognize his breath even if it turns to ashes. It must be him. He likes to follow you so sneakily."

"That's good, then my arrangement is just right!"

Long Haoyu felt relieved. Although he was crazy and wanted to kill Demon Race here, he would not gamble with other people's lives.

For example, after Demon territory made a big fuss, it caused a commotion in Demon Race, and eventually Garrison Area's Alliance soldiers were sacrificed due to passive defense. These were not things he was happy to see.

Now that everything is in order, Long Xingyu has been following secretly. After making things big, there will naturally be someone to put an end to it.

This charming old father would not just watch him and Long Haochen fall at this time, nor would he watch Demon Race launch an attack on Garrison Area after the commotion.

And they can completely escape after completing the assessment task, as long as Inspector doesn't help them save their lives and return to Garrison Area.

After such a complete set of procedures is followed, then even if they have exploited a loophole in the rules this time, it does not violate the assessment regulations.

As Long Haoyu finished speaking about the plan that was not a plan, Li Xin was instantly silenced.

Not only her, but Lin Jialu and others were also silent on the spot, completely unable to keep up with Long Haoyu's extraordinary arrangement.

Among the few people, only Long Haochen was very calm and not surprised at all by his brother's arrangement.

This kind of arrangement is more in line with his brother's style of doing things. If it changes, he won't look like his brother anymore.

The old man, who had been secretly observing the six Long Haoyu, almost failed to control his magic control and was exposed at this time.

It is better to take the initiative than to wait and wait. What kind of battle plan is this? Is this kid so reckless?

After confirming that he had heard correctly, the expression on the old man's face became a little uneasy. He suddenly felt that the burden on Alexander's shoulders had become much heavier.

Somewhere along the way, he realized that this time the assessment seemed to be very difficult, and the situation would become very serious.
