Xiao Lie sprinted through the forest with his three remaining teammates, only slowing down when dawn began to break.
"Xiao Lie, what do we do? The Blue Team still has one more person."
"What are you panicking for? We're almost at the finish line. We'll intercept them there."
"But... they have three alphas... our chances aren't great."
Xiao Lie stopped short and turned around in bewilderment.
"Which three? Isn't it just Lu Ye and Yue Lan?"
"And Xie Lin! Xie Lin, that brutal omega."
The man looked terrified and shuddered all over.
"Didn't you hear when he kicked Mo Sen just now? One crack, and the bone broke. Eugh-so scary."
"Isn't this just a team competition? Why's he acting like it's life-or-death?"
"Is Xie Lin a sore loser?"
[Hahahaha, I'm dying! Calling an omega a sore loser after getting thrashed by him!]
[Tao Miaomiao rules! (Thumbs-up)]
Xiao Lie rolled his eyes at him.
"As a veteran, you can't even handle a little injury like that?"
The man blinked, tugged a teammate aside, and deliberately slowed down, lowering his voice.
"I now have reasonable grounds to suspect Xiao Lie likes him."
"Exactly. An old tree blooming again-terrifying!"
A vein throbbed at Xiao Lie's temple. He whipped around and roared under his breath.
"I can hear you!!"
Both men jolted, exchanged a glance, then grinned and chuckled.
They munched on crackers as they walked.
Suddenly, Xiao Lie reached out to stop everyone.
Fog had settled over the forest before dawn.
Ordinary people would find their vision obstructed, but to an S-Rank alpha, this little haze-
Also seriously affected visibility.
Xiao Lie narrowed his eyes and spotted a figure moving up ahead.
"Xiao Lie, is that the Blue Team?"
Xiao Lie glanced at him incredulously.
"What else? A ghost?"
The man laughed sheepishly.
