Chapter 96: Cooperating with Van Lei

  "Brother Li, can I leave first and promise that I won't leave again within half a year after I come back? What do you think?" Su Ming asked in a negotiating tone.

  "Let's go." Fang Lei replied readily.

  "Really? That's great, thanks a lot, Li Ge." Su Ming was overjoyed when he heard that he could leave.

  "Later you challenge me, if you defeat me then you can leave." Yan said with a smile.

  "What? Brother Li, are you kidding me?" Su Ming's heart skipped a beat when he heard Fan Li's words, and the smile on his face froze.

  "I've already made it clear just now, whoever wants to leave must defeat me." said Van Di with a expressionless face.

  Su Ming let out a sigh, feeling extremely depressed in his heart. If he couldn't get out, he would be unable to enter the Later Stage of the Innate Realm within half a year's time. If he couldn't enter the Later Stage, he would receive punishment from Fan Le. Thinking about the sentence "My methods will make you remember for life", Su Ming's scalp felt numb. Fan Le was now in the Mid-Stage Heaven Spirit Realm and his power had stabilized. It was said that he could fight against the Master of the Heaven Spirit Round Completion Stage to a draw, his power was extremely terrifying.

  "Brother Li, can we change it?" Su Ming said with a pleading face.

  "You can, as long as you can make those nine people obey you, I can let you leave." Fang Li's mouth corners slightly curved upwards, a sly smile spreading across his face.

  "How can I make them obey me?" Su Ming became more and more depressed, wanting to make these nine people obey him was harder than ascending to heaven, especially Mu Ke and others, they had been looking down on him for a long time.

  "Any means are fine as long as they obey you." Vandi said calmly.

  Su Ming's eyes met with Fan Lei's, and from the latter's gaze, he read a message that he wanted the other nine to unite against an outsider, which was Su Ming himself.

  Su Ming smiled wryly and had already understood Fan Lei's meaning. He was to merge the nine people into one, making their differences disappear.

  "Alright, I understand. Just watch me, I'll make them obey me within three days." Su Ming said with an arrogant tone, and then gave a cold smile to Mu Ke and the others.

  "Alright, I'm looking forward to the good news. Now you all form teams, two people per team, and do it yourselves. You have two minutes." Fang Li saw Su Ming understand his meaning and smiled in satisfaction.

  After Fang Li finished speaking, the young men looked at each other and quickly formed teams. The members of the Lingdian team were especially quick to form three groups. When only Su Ming, Mu Tian, and Xiao Ling were left, Xiao Ling pulled Mu Tian, who was standing there in a daze, over to his side, forming another group and leaving Su Ming alone.

  "Hey, what's wrong with you guys?" Su Ming saw that none of the nine people were willing to form a team with him, and he felt extremely depressed in his heart. He was also one of the strongest, so why didn't anyone want to be on the same team as him?

  Although he felt very uncomfortable in his heart, Su Ming quickly understood that Fan Li's plan was proceeding step by step, so he had to cooperate with him step by step.

  "We three don't want to team up with you, go find someone else." The Lingdian squad of three showed a united front in rejecting Su Ming, refusing to team up with him.

  "Didn't you guys hear what Lige said? Two people per team? You three are breaking the rules, do you know that?" Su Ming said somewhat displeased.

  "We'd rather take the punishment than be on a team with you." The leader of the three youths responded harshly. Although they acknowledged that their abilities were inferior to Su Ming's, his arrogant words from earlier had infuriated them, and they strongly rejected Su Ming in their hearts, not believing that he could truly defeat all three of them.

  "Is that so? Then you're not afraid of offending me?" Su Ming's face changed, and he glared at the three of them with anger, taking a step forward as if ready to strike.

  "We're not afraid." The three boys said in unison.

  At this time, Fan Li coughed slightly, it was unclear whether he was reminding Su Ming or the three young men.

  "You guys are really united." Su Ming sneered and glanced at the nine boys: "Since none of you want to be on my team, I'll tell you the truth. I don't feel like being on a team with any of you because none of you qualify to be my teammate. You're all too weak."

  His tone was arrogant, his expression was arrogant, his words were arrogant, and he himself was even more arrogant. Su Ming's words and his sharp gaze made the nine young men extremely uncomfortable.

  Su Ming finished speaking, and even Mu Tian's face showed anger. At this time, the unease in his heart also disappeared, and he stood firmly by Xiao Ling's side.

  Although Su Ming is very strong, they are not weak either. They are all the best young men in Xicheng Prefecture, and they have a kind of pride in their bones. Previously, they had to admit that they were inferior to Su Ming due to his strength. When Su Ming repeatedly discriminated against them, the pride in these young men's hearts was thoroughly aroused. They didn't accept it, extremely not accepting it. They wanted to defeat Su Ming, surpass Su Ming, and trample Su Ming under their feet.

  Manchu looked at the flames in the eyes of the nine young men, smiled with satisfaction, his purpose had been achieved, and he owed Su Ming a debt of gratitude, but he would make it up to Su Ming, and this compensation Su Ming would definitely be happy to accept.

  "Since you don't want to be with Su Ming, then the three of you can form a team, and Su Ming will be in a team by himself. What do you think?" Fan Li said, taking advantage of the spark that had just flashed in the eyes of the nine people and Su Ming.

  "Master, we have no objection." The nine youths said in unison.

  "Leave me alone, I don't have any opinions on this. They can't even manage a team of three, let alone nine." Su Ming had no idea what it meant to be low-key, his tone was extremely arrogant.

  Su Ming's words once again stimulated the nine youths, among whom two teams of two split up on their own. One joined Mu Ke and Tang Xing'er's team, while the other joined Xiao Ling and Mu Tian's team. The youth who joined Xiao Ling and Mu Tian's team was ranked third in terms of strength within the Lingtian team, second only to Mu Ke and Tang Xing'er.

  The young man's name was Zhu Yao, a earth-attribute warrior who specialized in defense and followed the defensive warrior path. Generally, warriors of the same rank found it difficult to break through his defenses.

  The cooperation between the Lingdian team members and the Death Team members is considered a first step, all thanks to Su Ming.

  "Now that the teams are divided, come forward to receive your tasks." Fang Lei pulled out five pieces of sheepskin from his sleeve, each with ten tasks written on them, a total of fifty tasks.

  Three small teams sent a representative to receive a sheepskin. Just as the three of them looked at the ten tasks on the sheepskin together, an extremely arrogant voice came over.

  "Brother Li, I'm stronger than them, give me both sheepskins, and I guarantee I'll complete the task before they do."
