Chapter 707: Training Mission: Border Patrol

Su Hao didn't recognize many people, only two.

One was Jiang Zihan, who, when Su Hao visited Magic City University, had mistaken him for a freshman or sophomore and challenged him to a guidance match, only to be miserably defeated by Milotic.

As for the other, it was that junior girl from Imperial University he met at the Ice Peak City auction, the niece of the "scum" Champion Wataru, that descendant of the Dragon Clan named Bai Zirou.

Su Hao had only played one match against the former, while he once owed the latter a promise—to defeat Wataru.

However, that was settled after Su Hao sent her the video of Diancie soloing Flygon via a messaging app.

Before long, the personnel were assembled.

Everyone present was an adult, so they naturally knew to line up according to their teams; this went without saying.

As if confirming that everyone had arrived, He Jie, whom Su Hao had seen not long ago, stood on a small platform built in front of the teams, surrounded by a dozen others also wearing camouflage, his expression blank.

Unlike when he was chatting with Su Hao earlier, He Jie's imposing aura, which commanded respect without anger, was slowly released under his sweeping gaze, and the forty or fifty people instantly became well-behaved.

Zhao Yunlan and Xia Xiaoguang beside him were like mice encountering a cat, instantly standing straight, looking incredibly well-behaved.

After scanning the crowd, He Jie spoke:

"I can see many familiar faces among you, but there are also some new faces participating in the training this time. Let me start with a brief self-introduction."

"Hello everyone, my name is He Jie, the overall person in charge of you university students training here. You can call me Chief Instructor He."

He Jie paused and continued: "The purpose of this training is to test your team coordination skills. In fact, in the future, after you graduate from university and explore secret realms or accept Alliance missions, you will often form teams with people you trust to complete them. The power of a team is far greater than that of an individual."

"Of course, some of you might feel that you will be able to rival Champion-level trainers or even the Elite Four in the future, and have full confidence in your own strength."

"But that is only the future. Clearly, some of you haven't even passed the Professional-level trainer certification yet. The role of team mutual aid is far stronger than you fighting alone."

Su "not yet qualified to apply for certification" Hao: "I feel like you're implying something about me."

"I won't say any more nonsense. After lunch, you will begin the first mission of this week—border patrol."

He Jie pointed with both hands at the people standing beside him with firm expressions, standing like a copper wall and iron bastion: "Specific details will be introduced to you by the instructors assigned to your respective teams. The nineteen instructors standing beside me now are all elites of the Snowfield Base and have led countless university students like you."

"I hope you won't become the worst batch they have ever led. Now, start assigning instructors!"

Suddenly, the students below were in an uproar, as if they had been called the "worst batch" countless times before. ===== CHAPTER 708 =====
