Who among them could have imagined that this so-called archer was actually a rare and exceptional Spirit Master!

If the truth is revealed, it will surely cause an unprecedented sensation!

He wanted to knock this precious child out of the blue and get rid of him at all costs.

If Jiang Fan joins their team, their Sharp Edge Squad will surely rise from a third-class Divine Wind Camp squad to regain the glory of a first-class squad.

Not only that, it will develop into the most dazzling and top-tier squad in the Divine Wind Camp!

The more Jiang Fan thought about it, the more he couldn't hide the smile on Wei Cangyue's face. His mouth stretched so wide it almost reached his ears, making Jiang Fan's hair stand on end.

Why is Wei Cangyue laughing like that?

Could it be that she's after him?

Thinking of this, Jiang Fan subconsciously took a step back, assuming a posture as if he was about to run away at any moment.

Noticing this action, Wei Cangyue, who was immersed in a bright future, suddenly snapped out of his thoughts, took a step forward, and pressed close to Jiang Fan.

This scene left the other gray-robed companions looking at each other in bewilderment, completely baffled.

He wondered what the relationship was between this Tang Fan and their Captain Wei, that the Captain Wei were so concerned about him.

Wei Cangyue grabbed Jiang Fan's shoulders with both hands, grinning like a wolf in sheep's clothing.

" Tang Fan, our team is short of an archer, join us!"

Upon hearing this, his gray-robed companions were all stunned.

Are the Captain Wei joking? Tang Fan is only a Middle-Stage Second Rank Martial Artist, and the worst in their team is at least Fourth Rank Middle Stage, okay?

A San's eyes were fixed on Jiang Fan, and at this moment, his heart was filled with some twisted emotions.

Although he lacks talent in archery, he has saved the team from crisis on several occasions since joining the Sharp Edge Squad in the past few years, and it can be said that he has made a lot of contributions to the team.

But Wei Cangyue's actions just now—attempting to recruit a Middle-Stage Second Rank Martial Artist simply because of his talent in archery—were he implying that no matter how hard he tried, he was ultimately limited by his talent, and therefore could be replaced at any time by a suitable person?

Gradually, A San's eyes darkened.

At the same time, Wei Cangyue's words caused a sensation throughout the venue.

"My god, did I hear that right? The Sharp Edge Squad is a squad from the Divine Wind Camp! The Captain Wei actually wants to recruit a Middle-Stage Second Rank Martial Artist?!"

"I feel like I'm dreaming. Although our team was decimated during a mission, we're still Divine Wind Camp squad!"

The murmurs grew louder and louder, like boiling water churning.

At the same time, everyone's attention was focused on Jiang Fan, and they all looked at this well-disguised young man with expressions of great envy.

However--

Jiang Fan refused.

"Forget it, I'll just join another team."

quiet.

The once noisy and bustling hall seemed to have been muted, becoming so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

Everyone was in disbelief. The young man had actually refused the invitation from the Divine Wind Camp Squad!

"Why?" Wei Cangyue asked, puzzled.

Jiang Fan didn't answer but instead asked, "Your team is so strong, you wouldn't possibly go on a mission in the Inner Wilderness Zone, would you?"

"That's right, our mission is mainly focused on the Outer Wilderness Zone."

At this point, Wei Cangyue seemed to understand Jiang Fan's concerns and added, "But you don't need to worry, we still value our lives and will mainly operate on the outskirts of the Outer Wilderness Zone."

"Or should we count --"

"Don't rush to refuse. Don't you really enjoy hunting monsters? I've heard that when you were at Fortress No. 31, you often did missions with Xiaoqiang Studio, and they told me that you killed almost every monster you saw without any fear. You also especially liked to finish them off."

Wei Cangyue whispered these words in Jiang Fan's ear, so no one else could hear them.

"Although I don't know why you're naturally unafraid of demonic beasts, or why you enjoy killing them so much, especially finishing them off, maybe it's just a quirk of yours? Of course, I'm not interested in that; everyone has their little quirks, right?"

"If you agree to join my Sharp Edge Squad and come with me to the Outer Wilderness Zone, I'll take you to slaughter everything in sight, and I'll even leave the last remaining monsters for you to finish off. How about it?"

Upon hearing the last sentence, Jiang Fan's eyes lit up instantly.

It would be a lie to say I wasn't tempted!

Based on his current experience, the higher the level of the monster he kills, the more points he will get.

Wei Cangyue and his companions were at least at the Fourth Rank Middle Stage, with Wei Cangyue himself being a High-Stage Fifth Rank expert!

If you just follow them around and let them finish off the monsters, wouldn't that be incredibly satisfying?

but--

After thinking it over, Jiang Fan still refused.

"You're overthinking it. I don't have that kind of fetish. I simply hate monsters."

He would never admit that he enjoyed finishing off monsters; besides, he didn't even enjoy it, it was purely the system's fault.

Wei Cangyue raised an eyebrow twice, clearly not believing Jiang Fan's words, but he wisely refrained from exposing him.

"Whether it's true or not, I'll keep it to finish you off anyway."

"Never mind."

Jiang Fan waved his hand, "My strength is too low right now; it's too early for me to enter the Outer Wilderness Zone."

Although he really wanted to go with Wei Cangyue to the Outer Wilderness Zone to find bargains, he valued his own life more.

Wei Cangyue and his companions are indeed very strong and can protect him.

But what if an emergency occurs, Wei Cangyue and the others are too preoccupied with their own survival to protect him?

What if I get separated from Wei Cangyue and the others?

Even if I'm Spirit Master, how could Middle-Stage Second-Rank Martial Artist survive in the Outer Wilderness Zone?

After pondering for a while, Wei Cangyue's eyes revealed regret.

"That's true. Your strength is still too low. What if something happens to you in the Outer Wilderness Zone? Wouldn't the teacher skin me alive?"

The thought of being suspended in mid-air by the Crazy Old Man sent a chill down Wei Cangyue's spine.

"Once you reach the Third Rank or higher, remember to contact me. I'll recommend you to become Divine Wind Guard, and then you can join my Sharp Edge Squad. I'll take you to the Outer Wilderness Zone for a good fight."

Jiang Fan didn't rush to refuse.

After all, as his strength increases in the future, he might not be satisfied with the low-level monsters in the Inner Wilderness Zone.

This is not just about points, but also about improving his practical combat skills.

"Take your time choosing, we're going to collect our commission for completing the task."

After Wei Cangyue finished speaking, he turned and left.

The short, grey-robed man couldn't resist asking gossipy questions right away, " Captain Wei, why did that kid call you Instructor? What's your relationship with him? He's only at the Middle-Stage Second Rank, why did you invite such a low-level Martial Artist to join our team?"

The other gray-robed companions also looked at Wei Cangyue, their ears perked up to listen.

The A San, in particular, clenched their fists and stared intently.
