"What are the ranks of the Mutant Beast, and what are the ranks of those cultists?"
In the camp, Ye Li's black hair fluttered, his blue robe billowed, and his dark eyes gazed at the mountaintop with a sharpness that seemed to pierce through the jungle, pointing directly at the colossal building on the summit.
It's most likely a branch of the so-called Beast God Cult.
His voice was as calm as still water. "Tell me all about it."
This place is truly treacherous, with layers upon layers of giant rocks of various shapes. The terrain is so steep that even birds find it difficult to cross, and they often let out mournful cries.
Therefore, it was named Eagle Cry Gorge.
If any creature on the mountaintop wants to break through and descend from here, it must wipe out the garrison in the camp; otherwise, it will be difficult to successfully break out of the Dangtian Mountain territory.
When law enforcement officers from the Qingyi Bureau join forces to form a battle formation, their combat power increases exponentially.
As long as the two sides are not too far apart in strength, defending shouldn't be too difficult.
Upon hearing this, Liu Jing's face showed a hint of shame, and he lowered his head to reply:
"Most of them are second or third-tier Mutant Beast, but there are many of them. Among the followers, there are also quite a few Third-Tier martial artists who are all desperately trying to break through to the next level. There is no possibility of persuading them to surrender."
"No fourth-tier ones?" Ye Li looked up.
"Yes, but very few... It was because a fourth-tier cult member was mixed in with the crowd that our battle formation was unexpectedly breached, and several of our comrades died."
At this point, Liu Jing's face darkened; this matter had greatly affected him.
He himself was only at the Peak Third Order. Even if he could match Fourth-Tier Martial Artist when combined with the battle formation, he would not have the strength to resist the other enemies.
"I see."
Ye Li nodded slightly.
The Beast God Cult members and Mutant Beast were desperately trying to break through the encirclement, mostly to create an escape route for the Saintess.
Unfortunately, the campsite at the foot of the mountain was already full.
"Oh, right."
As if suddenly remembering something, Liu Jing hurriedly asked, "I still don't know the exact strength of the two of you?"
Ye Li glanced at Chen Jingli, who was gazing at the mountains in the distance, and said calmly, "She is around the Fourth-Tier Third Layer."
"Truly a prodigy from Fengyun University..."
Liu Jing's tone was full of admiration, and he clicked his tongue and said, "I think you're a few years younger than her. Could it be that you've also broken through to the fourth level?"
"Huh? No."
"That's the Peak Third Order?" Liu Jing felt relieved, then subconsciously asked.
He was unaware that, in order to prevent any unforeseen circumstances, Fengyun University had raised the level of the mission, which was originally only available at the Third-Tier, to the fourth tier.
"No, not either."
And so, to Liu Jing's horrified gaze...
The young man withdrew his gaze and chuckled, saying, "I'm at the Fourth-Tier Peak."
At the same time, the tent in the camp was opened, and two figures walked out.
A girl dressed in gorgeous clothes stretched and yawned, exuding an aura that was much stronger than Liu Jing's.
Behind her followed a young servant with a cold and aloof demeanor.
The law enforcement officers on duty glanced at him and then quickly looked away.
These two geniuses from Modu University have terrible tempers.
When they came over last night, they caused quite a commotion.
If they looked any longer, they might be ridiculed.
"Ah--"
The elegantly dressed girl yawned, seemingly having just woken up.
Among the uniformly dressed enforcers in blue robes, her magnificent attire stood out.
Even so, she had no intention of changing.
The elegantly dressed girl looked around, then her gaze suddenly locked onto Chen Jingli.
His previously lazy expression vanished instantly, replaced by a flash of surprise in his eyes:
"Chen Jingli?!"
She couldn't help but raise an eyebrow, then the surprise in her eyes quickly turned into coldness, and she asked with a half-smile, "The Martial Ground Baptism at Fengyun University is about to begin, and you actually come here to do missions?"
"..."
Chen Jingli looked up at her twice, but didn't even nod before looking away.
It was essentially ignoring the other party.
"Tsk--"
Seeing this, the girl in the fancy clothes twitched the corners of her mouth, but didn't say anything more.
Having considered Chen Jingli a rival for many years, she had long since grown accustomed to her personality.
But the young servant behind her seemed to have his hair standing on end, and suddenly stepped forward and shouted:
"The lady is talking to you, what are you doing...?"
Before he could finish speaking, the elegantly dressed girl interrupted him coldly, "Song Tao, shut up."
"Yes." Song Tao replied respectfully and immediately retreated.
"This is a genius girl from Fengyun University, how dare you act so presumptuously here?"
The elegantly dressed girl chuckled, then looked back at Chen Jingli, seemingly casually saying:
"Besides, she's been wearing that deadpan expression for a while now, and I don't mind, so why are you in such a hurry?"
She wanted to see if Chen Jingli could still remain so calm once her strength surpassed her opponent's!
It's just a little strange.
Given Chen Jingli's personality, she shouldn't do anything unnecessary before the Martial Ground Baptism.
Why would they suddenly travel all the way to Dangtian Mountain, thousands of miles away, to carry out such a difficult mission?
Thinking of this, the elegantly dressed girl named Wu Jie frowned slightly and followed Chen Jingli's gaze.
Not far away, in an open space, a handsome young man in Green Robe was standing and talking with Liu Jing, a senior law enforcement officer.
Both were dressed in Green Robe and were of similar age...
Wu Jie frowned even more deeply, and couldn't help but sneer, "Is that the newcomer you brought along?"
Besides that, she couldn't figure out why the other person would team up with a stranger of the opposite sex.
"Um."
Chen Jingli nodded calmly, seemingly oblivious to the mockery in the other person's tone.
Wu Jie asked with a cold face:
"What's your name? How strong are you?"
"It's none of your business," Chen Jingli said calmly.
"My God, that Chen Jingli is actually protecting someone else?"
Wu Jie feigned surprise, her brows immediately relaxing as if she had discovered something amusing, and a clear smile appeared on her rosy face:
"But unfortunately, whether he has anything to do with me or not is not up to you to decide."
She had been practicing her skills relentlessly at Modu University for years, but she could never surpass Chen Jingli, and a deep resentment had been building up in her heart.
It's important to know that Chen Jingli cares about very few things.
Even Martial Dao can only be barely included.
It's rare to see her leading newcomers on a mission. Last time, that junior sister was just Chen Jingli's shadow, impossible to recruit.
But this one seems to have a chance...
Wu Jie's lips curled up noticeably.
If we could recruit this Green-Shirted Youth to our ranks, even if we couldn't cause any harm to Chen Jingli, we could at least annoy him.
The daughter of a sinner, who has maintained a cold face towards me for over a decade.
It's long overdue for her to change her expression.
Thinking about this...
Wu Jie glanced at Ye Li not far away again and chuckled with amusement:
"Want to make a bet with me? I bet that before this mission ends, this new recruit you're bringing along will join our Wu family."
An opportunity to join the Northern Wu Family was presented to her, and she was confident that few young martial artists would choose to refuse it.
"..."
Chen Jingli ignored her and got up to walk towards Ye Li.
"Keep pretending, just keep pretending..."
Wu Jie watched her departing figure, her face gradually darkened, and she clenched her teeth.
Even after knowing each other for more than ten years, she still can't figure out what the other person is thinking.
Through conversation with Liu Jing.
Ye Li gained a general understanding of the situation at Eagle Cry Gorge.
Excluding his relationship with Chen Jingli.
The camp in Eagle Cry Gorge has seven martial artists of the Third-Tier or above, more than twenty Second-Tier Martial Artist, and over a hundred First-Tier Martial Artist equipped with firearms.
There are many campsites like this throughout Dangtian Mountain, but their configurations Taiyi.
With the addition of Ye Li and Chen Jingli, the Eagle Cry Gorge campsite is now considered to be of a very high standard.
Barring unforeseen circumstances, the risk of this place being breached is virtually zero.
This can be seen from the broad smile on Liu Jing's face.
Ye Li touched his chin with his fingers, pondered for a moment, and guessed:
"That vice principal is likely to launch a new offensive around noon, so you'd better prepare in advance."
"Why?" Liu Jing was taken aback.
"Because the mission I received clearly stated that I had to arrive here no later than noon," Ye Li explained calmly.
"... I see, thank you for reminding me."
Liu Jing pondered for a moment, then looked enlightened and said solemnly, "I'll go prepare right away!"
He glanced at the sky, which was nearly high in the sky, and immediately bowed to take his leave, heading towards the law enforcement officers in the camp.
After briefly conveying Ye Li's instructions...
Liu Jing breathed a sigh of relief, and then the badge on his chest vibrated slightly.
A steady, middle-aged voice then rang in his ear:
"Senior Zuo Qingyu will make his move again in two hours. At that time, all camps must be strictly guarded and no one should be allowed to escape!"
