36: Get out or die

Just as Li Feng led his Troops forward with great momentum.

In the grand canyon on the path ahead of him.

A dozen or so Lords were gathered there, men and women, each accompanied by a number of Troops.

The types of these Troops were varied; there were Human, Beast, and Insect races.

A week had passed since the beginner assessment.

The surviving Lords all had quite a few Troop altars under their command, and the variety of Troops naturally became richer.

At this moment, their gazes were all fixed on the front.

Following their line of sight, one could see a spatial wormhole several tens of meters high, with space constantly twisting within it.

In the sight of this group of Lords, next to this spatial wormhole were four golden characters—Evil Mountain Stronghold.

This spatial wormhole was clearly the entrance to a dungeon.

Suddenly, ripples appeared in the spatial wormhole.

Immediately after, a figure stumbled out from it.

Behind him, hundreds of Troops of different races followed closely.

The moment they saw the figure, the dozen or so Lords immediately surrounded him.

"Pang Tao, how is it? Do you have any hope of clearing it?"

Someone asked.

Pang Tao shook his head helplessly and said, "It's too difficult. Unless I can develop for a while longer, there's no hope at all."

After speaking, he scanned the surroundings and asked, "Is Wei Ge still in the dungeon?"

Hearing Pang Tao's previous words, everyone sighed.

Then, they heard Pang Tao's question, and a young man in a yellow tracksuit replied:

"Yes, now only Wei Ge is left in the dungeon. He should have no problem clearing it."

"Now it's just a matter of luck. If no one enters the dungeon before us, the first clear will be Wei Ge's."

Hearing this, Pang Tao nodded, not surprised.

He took out a water bottle from his backpack, took a sip of sweet mountain spring water, and said:

"The district announcement was very detailed. The dungeon refreshes uniformly at 6 AM on the eighth day. We discovered it at 6:23 AM, so unless something unexpected happened, we should be among the earliest group."

"Wei Ge will most likely get the first clear of this dungeon, and his strength will definitely skyrocket by a large margin then."

Hearing this, the other dozen Lords all nodded and began to discuss animatedly.

"I really envy Wei Ge. Not only did he awaken a Tier 6 Troop, but he also awakened an A-rank talent. As long as he gets the first clear of this dungeon, the first place in the beginner assessment for this district will definitely be his for the taking."

"That's right, we just need to quietly wait for Wei Ge to clear it and get the first clear of the dungeon."

"Once Wei Ge becomes powerful, we can go explore that misty area. We discovered it a few days ago, but even Tier 4 Troops were easily instantly killed, which made us temporarily put off exploration."

"That's right, that misty area is likely a special map, and there might be great opportunities inside. Once we get them, all of us might be able to squeeze into the top twenty in this district, that would be awesome."

"…"

The Wei Ge these Lords were talking about was named He Wei.

Currently, he ranks sixty-seventh on the points leaderboard.

The points leaderboard is linked to strength, but it doesn't completely represent strength.

He Wei not only awakened a Tier 6 Troop but also an A-rank talent.

In previous years' beginner assessments, he would definitely be a top contender for first place.

Just as this group of people was talking loudly and envisioning a beautiful future.

Li Feng had already pushed all the way to the entrance of this canyon.

"Footprints."

Li Feng's eyes were sharp, and he quickly discovered a patch of footprints.

The footprints here were very messy, and quite a few different ones were left, clearly not from the same race.

"Have Lords been here?"

Li Feng looked ahead and murmured.

Then, he waved his hand and led his Troops to continue forward.

He didn't know why, but he had a faint premonition that he would gain something ahead.

After advancing for one kilometer, at a corner, Li Feng saw the dungeon entrance.

And the dozen or so Lords in front of the dungeon entrance.

At the same time Li Feng discovered this group of Lords, the latter also discovered Li Feng.

Due to being at a corner of the canyon, they only saw Li Feng and Skarner.

Seeing this, one of the youths immediately shouted, "This place has been reserved by our King Kong Alliance, so all unauthorized personnel, scram!"

Although he could tell that Skarner was not easy to deal with, the youth was not afraid.

There were a dozen of them.

And Li Feng was alone.

Even if he was a Chosen One who had awakened a Tier 6 Troop, they could still handle him.

The others also looked at Li Feng with wary expressions, and the air was filled with a tense atmosphere.

At this moment, Pang Tao, the last one to exit the dungeon, stepped forward and said very calmly:

"Friend, it's not impossible for you to enter this dungeon, but you'll have to wait until our alliance leader clears the dungeon."

"By the way, our alliance leader's name is He Wei, currently sixty-seventh on the points leaderboard. I don't think you want to go against us, do you, friend?"

Pang Tao smiled, his tone sounding friendly, but he subtly brought up He Wei as a threat.

At the same time, this was also a test.

If Li Feng showed a timid expression, he would immediately make a move to eliminate Li Feng.

If Li Feng was only wary of them and not afraid, then he would get along peacefully with Li Feng.

Li Feng calmly looked at everyone in front of him.

He couldn't hear others' thoughts and didn't know Pang Tao's inner calculations.

If he knew, he would definitely tell Pang Tao that there was a third possibility.

"Either scram, or die."

Li Feng had no intention of being polite with them and spoke calmly.

Hearing this, Pang Tao and the others were slightly stunned, then all laughed.

"Haha, are you a clown invited by a monkey? How dare you threaten us?"

"Don't you see the hundreds of Troops behind us? There are more than 30 Tier 5 Troops alone. Who gave you the courage to say that? Liang Jingru?"

"Hahaha, this is the funniest thing I've heard all year, I'm laughing so hard I'm almost choking, hahaha."

Pang Tao also suppressed his laughter and said, "Friend, I have an aversion to stupidity, and I can't stand idiots. You'd better leave quickly, or I'm really afraid I won't be able to control myself and eliminate you."

Pang Tao had been paying attention to Li Feng's micro-expressions.

He saw no fear on Li Feng's face, which meant the other party definitely had strength.

Since that was the case, he didn't plan to act against Li Feng.

However, he also couldn't let Li Feng enter the dungeon.

Although Li Feng entering the dungeon now wouldn't threaten He Wei, since He Wei was already close to clearing it.

But it's better to be safe than sorry.

What if Li Feng got lucky and cleared it before He Wei?

Although this possibility was almost nil.

But Pang Tao had to be cautious.

"What a coincidence, I'm just like you, I also have an aversion to stupidity." After speaking, Li Feng waved his hand and said, "Kill them."

As soon as his voice fell, a flurry of figures immediately rushed out from the canyon corner.

The Flying Mantis activated its High-Speed Movement skill, each one tearing through the air, rushing towards Pang Tao and the others at supersonic speed...
