Chapter 458: Chapter 458: SS Rank!
Chapter 458: Chapter 458: SS Rank!
At that time, in a towering building in City B, Han Jin and Wei Junhao walked into the meeting room located on the top floor.
The meeting room was already full of people, neatly dressed and with serious expressions. They were the management of the City B base and several surrounding bases, also here to attend the Mercenary Corps assessment summary meeting held in City B today.
As assessors, and the last ones to return to City B, Han Jin and Wei Junhao paused the competition video of another S-rank team on the screen. A resounding voice filled the conference room, chuckling, âYou two lads finally made it back, and what perfect timing, hahaha.â
âUncle Han, the place we went was quite far, and we found a rather strong S-rank team, so naturally it took us a bit more time,â Han Jin replied with a smile.
Wei Junhao also responded with a smile.
With a look of surprise, Han Zhimin then laughed, âReally? Thatâs great, we donât realize until we see it. There are indeed few who can surpass the ability users from our City B base. If we can have a few more powerhouses, it would add some hope to the current times too. Hurry, bring it out and let us all take a look.â
âYes, I feel that the S-rank teams we just witnessed also narrowly won over our City B ability users. After all, our ability users have to compete against so many participants, they would get exhausted.â
Xu De from City J base praised, a loyal supporter of the Han family of City B. Any word from Han Zhimin would first be endorsed by him.
Han Jin could hear the pride in his fatherâs voice. Indeed, the number of high-level ability users in City B was much higher than in other bases, and mostly they had been cultivated by their Han family. However, he still hesitated, unsure if the video would embarrass his father.
Wei Junhao had already handed over the box he was carrying, which contained the competition video of the Heart Talk Team from City S.
âThe strong team you mentioned, which base are they from?â
A voice asked, belonging to Wei Yinghao seated next to Han Zhimin, Wei Junhaoâs uncle.
âCity S base, the base leader is Liang Weiâs son, Liang Jiuhui,â Wei Junhao replied with a smile.
Wei Yinghao was somewhat surprised, having heard that his elder brother had a good relationship with Liang Wei. He didnât realize that even their base leader now was Liang Weiâs son.
He became interested in this super-rank team.
As everyone whispered among themselves, the first match of the Heart Talk Team had begun. When the crowd saw that the first contestant was a beautiful woman, and she was a Wood Element Ability User, everyoneâs face looked shocked. Shouldnât the Fire Element Ability User from City B have won this first match?
Han Zhimin also watched the screen with a smile, but as the video progressed, his smile gradually stiffened on his face.
The video was with audio.
The woman, like a fairy descending from heaven, effortlessly controlled the Fire Element Ability Userâs movements until a dark green forest suddenly spread across the entire field. Still smiling, the woman said to the tied up Fire Element Ability User, âI call this move âForest Sea Descendingâ; what do you think?â
Next, the Fire Element Ability User was thrown into mid-air, and struck by the womanâs power until only his undershorts remainedâŠ
âPfft,â
Wei Yinghao couldnât help but laugh out loud, not knowing why, he felt an urge to applaud the Wood Element Ability User.
Han Jin discreetly glanced at Han Zhiminâs expression. Indeed, like father, like son; Han Zhimin must be very angry now.
âThereâs already a Level Six Ability User now, and itâs a Wood Element one,â
someone exclaimed.
âYes, I thought the highest would be those Level Five Ability Users from our City B,â
âBut that Special Ability User is indeed impressive, I guess their team won just because of her,â
âŠ
In the midst of astonished exclamations and discussions, the second match between the Ice-Element Special Ability User and the Thunder Element Special Ability User also began, and surprisingly, the Ice-Element Special Ability User won very easily.
Some even felt that the tactics of the Thunder element ability user were not impressive, surprisingly trying to counterattack even when the Ice-Element Special Ability User gave him a slight advantage.
By the third match, Han Jin was already starting to feel uneasy, as it was his match against Lu Hao.
Han Zhiminâs mood had eased a bit, but after watching the third match, his face completely darkened, not because the Fire Element Special Ability User was also a Level Six Special Ability, but because Han Jin was unexpectedly defeated by the opponentâs divine, adept skills!
âAmazing! Truly amazing!â
Someone even stood up and clapped, and Han Zhimin looked at himâit was Chen Chuyao, the Base Leader from Lin Cityâs N Base.
Chen Chuyao, with eyes shining, continued to watch eagerly through the fourth and fifth matches, each member of this team was incredibly impressive!
The last match was astonishing too, as a Level Four Wind Element won over a Level Five Special Ability User from B City!
Everyone stared at the screen for a long time, unable to snap out of it.
Because that team called Heart Talk, had won all five matches easily, with no losses!
Many felt unsatisfied and even wanted to watch again, because these five matches were not only extraordinarily thrilling but also incredibly fast, with none dragging on.
After all, they had just watched several S-rank team matches, some of which lasted for hours until the opponentâs special abilities were exhausted, unlike the Heart Talk Team.
âMy God, this team isnât just S-rank, right? They must be at least SS-rank!â
Someone exclaimed.
âNo, I think even calling them SSS-rank at this stage isnât excessive, Brother Han, youâve encountered a real expert here,â
Ou Wenxuan also said, only to be nudged gently by the person next to him. He followed his neighborâs gaze in one direction, and there you go, Han Zhiminâs expression was as dark as the bottom of a pan.
The discussions gradually ceased, and after a quiet moment, only awkwardness filled the air.
Everyone had realized by now, those who had been decisively defeated were Han Zhiminâs capable subordinates!
âHahaha, I think this Heart Talk Team really deserves an SS-rank, after all, we donât yet have an SSS-rank evaluation, what do you all think?â
Wei Yinghao stood up and asked.
Those present knew, Wei Yinghao was famously indifferent to the setting; he never read the room or peopleâs expressions, bluntly speaking his mind. When asked, he would say, their family were simple folks from muddy fields, donât expect them to understand such sophisticated matters.
It was exactly because of this that Han Zhimin didnât like the Wei Family, yet as one of the multiple strong factions in the B City Base, the Wei Family currently held a pivotal position since they controlled most of the baseâs resources.
âI agree, they are completely different from other S-rank teams. It would be unfair to classify them only as S-rank,â
Ouyang Xuan was the first to voice his support.
