On the holographic screen, the current top four are Lu Xingchen with 5300 points, Xing Zhan with 5000 points, Chen Sixuan (KIKI) with 4800 points, and Wu Bin with a Demon-shaped Superpower also at 4800 points. In fifth place is someone with a peak superpower of 4000. Although thatâs already quite strong, itâs clear they have no intention of challenging KIKI and Wu Bin.
Li Jian on the high platform noticed that no one dared to challenge the rankings of the Four Heavenly Kings, so he looked pensive and spoke into the communicator: "Captain Qin, those few weâve been observing who have over 4000 points are still hesitating. It would be a shame if we let them slip away."
"Have that guy named Xu come out and issue a challenge to get the momentum of merging the major teams going," Qin Feng said at this point.
Li Jian nodded, then his gaze swept towards the major teamsâ camp. Xu Yufei keenly noticed Li Jianâs gaze and showed a moment of hesitation.
"Captain Xu, arenât you going up?" Lei Zhen, who had always been provoking him, fanned the flames: "The Four Heavenly Kings can integrate their entire teams. Didnât you say this was a great investment?"
"None of your business." Xu Yufei replied coldly: "Youâve sent quite a few of your people, too. Youâd better watch over them."
Lei Zhen, however, laughed freely: "I donât care. Whether they come or go doesnât matter to me. Everyone is just trying to survive. As long as they work hard while theyâre in my team, I wonât mind so much."
Xu Yufei stood up and looked at Lin Qingyu: "Captain Lin, your Xing Zhan is occupying one of the Four Heavenly Kingsâ positions. Qin Feng definitely wants me to push him out. Let me inform you in advance that I have no intention of making enemies with you."
Lin Qingyu smiled and said: "Captain Xu, youâre too courteous. My arrangement is simply displeasure at this recruiting event reliant on the Federation. However, Xing Zhan does have a foul mouth and is heavy-handed. If you plan to challenge him, youâd better be prepared. It wouldnât be good if anyone gets hurt on both sides."
Upon hearing this, Xu Yufei didnât say more but directly got up and walked towards the center of the plaza.
"I think this guy is being too clever by half and is bound to be outsmarted." Han Tiege from All-Metal Frenzy commented.
"I think so too..." Luo Heng said.
"I just look down on his fence-sitting behavior. I donât understand how such a person can lead such a big team." Lei Zhen said disdainfully.
Jiang Yun, however, did not mock Xu Yufei but said, "In the face of the apocalypse, one often has no choice. Itâs not easy with over ten thousand lives in his hands. With Qin Feng promising such benefits, many teams want to join but canât find a way. Captain Xuâs decision is understandable."
Lin Qingyu nodded: "I agree with that."
After saying this, he looked at Jiang Yun: "Captain Jiang, Iâd like to know if your Captain Lin is aware of this [Infinite Alliance] recruiting event and what his attitude is?"
"Captain Lin, ah... he is..." Jiang Yun glanced towards the bustling crowded plaza and said meaningfully
"Fully supportive."
This statement left Lin Qingyu and the few others somewhat puzzled.
"It seems that our Twelve Star Lords and Four Heavenly Kings have come out. Thereâs not much time left today. If no other masters step forward, our Captain Qin will personally test the Four Heavenly Kings, and the Infinite Alliance will officially be established!" On the high platform, Li Jian watched Xu Yufei make his move and immediately started to stir up excitement.
As expected, shortly after his words, a loud uproar erupted from the recruitment area.
"5100! Isnât that Xu Yufei, ranked 6th on the Evolution Light ranking? Why is he here too?!"
"Damn, Steel Barrier has over ten thousand people, are they planning to join Infinite Alliance together?"
"It must be. The Four Heavenly Kings can directly merge their teams, he definitely can with his strength."
"Wow, this is getting interesting. Now thatâs awkward for the Mechanical Superpower Users Chen Sixuan and Wu Bin, both are at 4800, looks like they have to compete with each other!"
"This is getting intense..."
At this time, with Xu Yufei joining, the rankings immediately changed. Sitting in the resting area, Wu Bin, with a gloomy face, glanced subtly at KIKI not far away, and then slowly stood up.
KIKI, who was originally ready to challenge Qin Feng, frowned seeing the change in events.
"Whyâs this guy showing up now? No choice, Wu Bin will definitely challenge me." KIKI quietly said into the communicator: "Lin Xian, should I go for a quick win?"
Lin Xian was pondering this when Jiang Yunâs voice came over:
"KIKI, donât worry. Xu Yufei is here to challenge Xing Zhan. Qin Feng knows heâs part of the Dawn Watcher Alliance and wants to use Xu Yufei to eliminate him."
"Heâs quite shrewd." Lin Xian commented.
"If Xing Zhan loses, he probably wonât challenge KIKI and the others again, so the plan remains the same."
"Alright then." KIKI breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this.
At this time, dressed in military garb, Xu Yufei didnât enter the rest area but directly leapt onto the high platform and then looked at the leaderboard: "Iâm Xu Yufei from the Steel Barrier Team. Many people here might know me. Iâm representing 12,362 brothers and sisters from the whole team to participate in this Infinite Alliance recruitment. The goal is to hope for a strong alliance with Captain Qin to lead the team to live safe lives. I donât want to sit here waiting for rankings, so Iâm stepping up to make a statement. I want one of the Four Heavenly Kingsâ positions. If I canât get it, it means nothing to me and my team. I know that some friends in the rankings might not actually want to join, but I take team alliances seriously, so..."
