Death-Cycle Arena

At this moment, the Third Class Subspecies team had already taken shape.

Shi Hongyu, one Level-Two Master Fistmaster, two Level-One Master Mecha Masters, one Entry-Level Two Blade-and-Sword Enchanter, and two Level-One Master War Banner Masters.

Six people in total.

Because the amount of Passive Energy that could be drawn from a target Arena Zone was usually limited.

Six people made for the optimal team.

If there were any more people, energy allocation might not keep up. In a crucial battle, insufficient Force Intensity could be fatal.

Shi Hongyu handed each of them another four Energy Crystal Blocks.

Fu Junlin and the others were all surprised when they accepted the crystals.

She had handed out twenty Energy Crystal Blocks in one go. That was eight thousand credits!

Shi Hongyu really was a little rich lady...

When Shi Hongyu handed Fu Junlin his crystals, she gave him a meaningful look.

By then, quite a few people had gathered on both sides of the Teleportation Array.

Someone stepped before the Teleportation Array, inspected it, then inserted a red Energy Crystal Block to activate it.

Soon after, the enormous screen above the Teleportation Array lit up.

The screen appeared to show footage from a drone. After taking off, it circled above the Teleportation Array on the other side. Once it confirmed that the area was open, empty, and safe, it began emitting a few strange sounds.

A teacher standing before the Teleportation Array on this side and operating it called loudly to Shi Hongyu.

"Transmission rate: 90%. Safe. Microbial index normal. Energy intensity normal. No terrain changes..."

After verifying a long list of data, the teacher nodded to Shi Hongyu.

"You may depart."

Shi Hongyu nodded as well and accepted something another teacher beside her handed over. It was a large silver briefcase.

Inside was monitoring equipment. After taking the Arena Zone, they would set it up there to observe whether monsters would fail to respawn the next day. Although prior assessments had basically confirmed it was a Death-Cycle Arena, verification was still needed.

"Let's go!"

Shi Hongyu took the lead into the Teleportation Array and stood facing the others.

Humanity had already deciphered the principles of the Teleportation Array. All matter was made of molecules and atoms, and humans were no exception.

A wormhole that only connected two spaces within the same dimension was the absolute lowest tier of wormhole. Compared to wormholes that connected multidimensional spaces or crossed through time, it was far simpler.

Humanity could already fully control this kind of wormhole.

Nor did teleportation require the human body to be completely broken down into molecules and atoms. It only required those molecules and atoms to be arranged into sequences in the form of matrices, then formed into matrices.

In the end, they only needed to break down several matrices and teleport them together. It was almost completely safe.

Since the invention of the Teleportation Array, no one had died during a normal transmission.

The ultimate Teleportation Array, of course, recorded the human body as one complete matrix. Transmitting it as a whole was the simplest and safest method.

Such Teleportation Arrays had already appeared, but they were generally only available at large urban Teleportation Arrays and had not yet been fully popularized.

All the teachers and students who had come to watch simultaneously raised their fists in salute.

In unison, they shouted to Shi Hongyu and the others.

"May your energy be infinite!"

Shi Hongyu, Fu Junlin, and the others simultaneously covered their chests and returned the salute.

They shouted loudly.

"Energy infinite!!"

After the blessing was spoken, the Teleportation Array flared with light, and Shi Hongyu, Fu Junlin, and the others were sent away one after another.

They appeared in the Arena Zone shown on the large screen.

Though it was not his first time, Fu Junlin still grew tense involuntarily every time he entered an Arena Zone.

This was, after all, a lawless land—the territory of mutated creatures, a battlefield between life and death.

This small Arena Zone was a small teleportation point with two Teleportation Arrays. It had only been opened up recently, and not much of the surrounding Arena Zones had been explored.

It concealed even more unknowns.

At that moment, each of the four surrounding walls had a glowing Light Gate.

Only humans could pass through these gates. Monsters could not.

It was as if the Arena Zone held some degree of favoritism toward humanity. In any case, there were far too many unsolved mysteries surrounding Arena Zones.

How exactly had Arena Zones appeared, and why? To this day, no one could fully answer those questions.

"Prepare for battle!"

Shi Hongyu rolled her neck and shoulders as she spoke to the group.

Fu Junlin and the other War Banner Master each took out four Battle Banners and inserted them behind their backs.

Their Battle Banners could not be stored in a Battle Banner Belt, because they needed to replenish energy on their bodies at all times. They also had to be easily accessible, and more importantly, the captain needed to see what Battle Banners they currently had.

Fu Junlin put on his waist armor, and the four Battle Banners drifted behind him, making him look more like a general than anyone else.

But once the others switched into battle mode as well, the War Banner Masters' appearance seemed rather underwhelming.

Shi Hongyu was a Fistmaster. She took out a device and slapped it onto her hand.

After a series of crisp cracking sounds, Shi Hongyu's right fist and forearm were wrapped in a compact red gauntlet.

The gauntlet had a matte texture and a weighty feel. In particular, the blue energy source on it gradually lit up. The gauntlet released a low-frequency vibration, and the sound gradually vanished from Fu Junlin's ears.

He knew the sound had not truly disappeared. It had merely been contained within the gauntlet, allowing it to inflict even greater destructive power.

A Fistmaster's battle form was that simple, yet it possessed the most terrifying destructive power.

The two Mecha Masters also summoned their respective mechas.

Mecha Masters were divided into many schools, including Turret Style, Melee Style, Precision-Kill Style, and so on. Each of those was further divided into even more branches, making the system extremely complex.

Qiao Zishu.

A cold beauty with waterfall-like black hair, an incredible figure, and looks unmatched in the Third Class. She had always been one of the top students in the class.

Even many boys from the Superior Species classes had pursued her, but unfortunately, she had no interest in dating.

But more people believed that she simply disliked Superior Humans. This had left many Superior Species boys who thought highly of themselves dissatisfied with her, and some had even verbally attacked her.

After that, Qiao Zishu had even less patience for Superior Humans.

Qiao Zishu was a Precision-Kill Style Mecha Master. She specialized in sniping, heavy cannons, and bullets with properties such as armor-piercing and internal detonation. Her offensive output was exceptionally powerful.

Qiao Zishu took a massive heavy sniper rifle from her belt. The rifle, imbued with her strong personal style, was black as ink, with an antique silver pattern running along its body. It was nearly 1.7 meters long, about as tall as she was.

Noticing Fu Junlin studying her, Qiao Zishu swept her beautiful eyes toward him and gave him a small glare.

Fu Junlin quickly looked away.

This already counted as Young Lady Qiao being gentle. Normally, she could not even be bothered to glance at a man, much less glare at one like this.

But while Fu Junlin did not dare look at her, Qiao Zishu instead watched his profile, a faint trace of interest appearing in her eyes. After all, she was also an expert marksman. When she saw Fu Junlin display such astonishing power that day, she had found it the hardest to believe.
