Agreed to let Luo Chao take the Green Forest Sword, but the animal hide stays here for now, it's too big to carry out conveniently.
Otherwise, the other team leaders might feel unbalanced, wondering why the things we've worked hard for are benefiting this kid in the end.
Before leaving, Luo Chao confidently told Tie Xiong, "Deputy Leader, there's a reason I'm taking the Flying Sword. We cultivators emphasize the unity of man and sword, nurturing the treasure sword with one's own spiritual Qi. If I don't carry it, how can I nurture it?"
Actually, Luo Chao was just talking nonsense, although cultivators do indeed have the concept of nurturing swords.
But he's not at that level yet; it's already good enough if he can control and kill enemies through blood sacrifice refinement.
Seeing Guo Ren's curious look, Luo Chao immediately put on a sleazy expression and secretly said, "Lean in your ear, let me tell you, don't let others hear."
Luo Chao's pretentious act made Guo Ren extremely curious, so he immediately leaned over as instructed.
Luo Chao whispered in his ear, "This thing on my back is quite an incredible treasure, hehe, it's my big weapon, I don't tell just anyone about it."
Guo Ren was tickled with curiosity, constantly glancing at his back, "Captain, just tell me, what is it exactly?"
"Really want to know? Alright then." Luo Chao switched to a serious expression, solemnly saying, "Know the ten great divine artifacts of ancient times? Know the Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan? Know that the Xuanyuan Sword is possessed by the Yellow Emperor?" He asked three questions in a row, leaving Guo Ren utterly confused, and finally patting the part of the Green Forest Sword exposed on his shoulder, "You're right, it's this one on my back."
Making a wiping-the-cold-sweat action, Guo Ren was really struck dumb by Luo Chao's claim.
"Captain, no need to exaggerate, that divine artifact might not even be real."
"What, you don't believe me?" Luo Chao said seriously, "How about I unwrap it and show you!" Saying this, he was about to take down the Green Forest Sword from his back.
"No need, no need." Guo Ren quickly stopped him, he's not stupid, Luo Chao's meaning was clear; blowing it so big was clearly telling him not to ask what he shouldn't know, I don't want to tell you.
Seeing that Guo Ren understood his meaning, Luo Chao let out a sly smile, he was just acting, and now smoothly lowered his hand.
The two fell silent for a while, and after waiting some more, seeing that Nangong Hanhan still hadn't come out, Luo Chao couldn't help but find something to say.
"Hey, Guo Ren, what kind of superpower does that silly girl have, her hair's quite special."
Guo Ren was startled, then realized who Luo Chao was referring to, he couldn't help but admire the sharp tongue of this new team captain, aren't you afraid I'll report you?
Of course, he wouldn't really do such a boring thing to the Royal Language Academy.
"Hanhan's superpower is called Magic Hair, it's a physical body class superpower, her family is a superpower family, her ancestors were one of the founders of the Dragon Team." Guo Ren said with a hint of pride.
"Wow, no wonder she's so arrogant, turns out she's a superpower second generation." Luo Chao said in surprise.
Guo Ren defended Nangong Hanhan, saying, "Hanhan's actually not bad, she's just pampered since young and not good at speaking, captain, don't mind. You'll know once you get along with her for a while, she's very kind and gets along well with us teammates."
Luo Chao rolled his eyes, feigning anger he said, "Am I that petty? A little girl, I'm not so childish as to have a quarrel with her."
"If you dare call me a little girl again, I'll kick you to death." Nangong Hanhan's voice came over.
Luo Chao and the others looked up, only to see her arm-in-arm with a pale, ice-cold beauty approaching.
This beauty wasn't very old, estimated to be only twenty-four or five, with a pretty face, and a slender figure, but there was a hint of sorrow between her brows, which was heart-wrenching, making people want to hold her and comfort her softly.
Yet she also exuded a chill, unlike Zhao Hanxue's innate icy coldness, her coldness gave a feeling of keeping people at a distance, this was a state where someone had closed off emotionally to protect themselves after suffering a major setback.
This woman must be the Qingqing Sister Nangong Hanhan referred to.
Liu Qingqing was really worn down by Nangong Hanhan's insistence, so she came out to meet their new captain.
Outside there were only two people, the one talking to Guo Ren must be the one taking her place, right? Thinking of this, Liu Qingqing couldn't help but feel a bit sad, a bit restless, and full of dislike towards Luo Chao.
Seeing them coming out, Luo Chao proactively walked over, extending his hand, "Hello, my name is Luo Chao."
Liu Qingqing glanced at the hand extended before her, turned her head and said to Nangong Hanhan standing next to her, "Alright, I've seen the person, I'm going back." With that, she turned and left, leaving Luo Chao's hand awkwardly suspended in mid-air.
Nangong Hanhan glanced at Luo Chao, snorted, and quickly ran to catch up with Liu Qingqing, "Qingqing Sister."
Liu Qingqing didn't shake hands with him, Luo Chao was not annoyed, in fact, he smiled softly as he withdrew his hand, watching Nangong Hanhan and Liu Qingqing enter the room.
Guo Ren came over, intending to say something. Luo Chao smiled slightly, "It's alright, I understand."
"That's good." Guo Ren also smiled along.
"Let's go, let's check out the training camp, pick a couple of good prospects for our team." Luo Chao said nonchalantly, not dwelling on what had just happened, "You lead the way, I don't know the place."
"Okay."
A few minutes later, Luo Chao and the others appeared in a massive training ground. There were dozens of people of varying ages training on various high-tech equipment, all putting in great effort because they knew their opportunity had come in this different space-time—China's resurgence.
They were all superpower users, discovered and brought in by the Dragon Team from all over the country each year. Some grew up in this base from a young age, some joined in middle age, training in this youth camp every day, ready to be selected as replacements when any of the eight combat teams suffered casualties.
They were not afraid of death because coming here meant they were confirmed to be absolutely loyal to the country, to the Dragon Team, fighting for the country was their ideal and hope.
Luo Chao casually looked around the youth camp, and casually asked, "Guo Ren, any good candidates to recommend to me?"
Thinking for a moment, Guo Ren said, "I came from here myself, so I'm quite familiar with the place. As for candidates, I do have one in mind."
"Oh!" Luo Chao showed interest, "Who is it, let's go take a look."
