shameless!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was utterly shameless!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Han Meng clenched her small fist, burning with rage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Are we afraid of them?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“With the squad leader here, whether it’s seven nations or eight, we’ll knock them all to the ground!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching the students’ fervent

gaze sweeping over everyone except Lin Mo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What about you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“To be blunt.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This time, the opponents you face are the elite prodigies of the other seven nations, your own age.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“They have brains, tactics, strength…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Wenchang sighed beside him and added:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Classmates.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“In past Wanguo Battlefields, there was no coordinated seven-nation extermination campaign.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Even with risk, we would have sent all of you in without hesitation—fight however you must, life or death is fate.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But this year is different.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Lin Mo alone is enough to overturn the entire Wanguo Battlefield.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So for you…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Wenchang gave a bitter smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The principal and I originally planned for you to enter behind Lin Mo, to gain experience, to see the world.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But after careful consideration…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That won’t work.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It would only lead to needless casualties—and might even drag Lin Mo down.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guhe picked up Xu Wenchang’s thread.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s why I’ve called you here today—to tell you this.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“For this year’s Junior Wanguo Battlefield, it’s entirely up to your own will.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If you want to go, go.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If you don’t, the school and the nation won’t force you—and no one will say a word against you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the conference room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Longxu Class students, who had been so fiery moments ago, now fell utterly silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had known the Wanguo Battlefield’s dangers since their first day of enrollment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every year, someone from Longxu Class stayed there forever.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They weren’t afraid of death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>None who entered Longxu Class were cowards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, the situation was clearly different.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seven nations united in joint attack!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Exponential surge in danger!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the purpose of entering the Wanguo Battlefield was to seize exclusive weapon resources.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If they entered…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under siege by the seven nations’ prodigies, Lin Mo would not only have to kill enemies and seize resources, but also divert attention to protect them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What kind of training was this?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Going to be a burden?\u003C\u002Fp>",1153,"2026-06-21T04:41:50.524Z",1,"Qwen3-Next
