[Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight!]
[Give it a rest, this kid clearly has issues, didn't you see him drop the knife?]
[Oh, so he drops the knife as soon as he sees his sister?]
[It's a bit absurd, I'm not sure, let's watch some more.]
The barrage of taunting comments filled the chat, while the atmosphere in the arena remained tense.
Lanxicha team member approached Feng Xi cautiously and asked in a low voice, "Big boss Feng, shall we attack?"
He had heard of the prowess of The No.1 Military Academy - powerful and with plenty of unorthodox tactics, conquering such a formidable academy would surely be an immense achievement.
The team member rubbed his palms eagerly in anticipation.
But as soon as the words left his mouth, he was scolded.
Feng Xi's voice was extremely cold, "Attack what? Is fighting the only thing on your mind?"
The Lanxicha team member: ???
Wasn't their boss the one who loved fighting the most?
He didn't know what to say to redeem the situation, so he retreated on his own accord.
Next, he saw his boss Feng Xi quicken his pace and head towards The No.1 Military Academy.
He stood dazed for a moment, then called out to the other team members to follow.
On the other side, Chloe patted Daniel's head before hopping off his back.
Daniel took the hint and transformed back into human form.
The main team of The No.1 Military Academy stood in neat formation, five people in total. Except for Chloe, the others all wore cold, stern expressions.
Feng Xi's steps faltered, but he continued walking forward.
Seeing this, Daniel's messy red hair bristled, "He's coming to fight? Perfect, I wanted to test this guy's skills anyway."
He pounded his fists together, a provocative look on his tanned face.
Chloe frowned, "You stay quiet for now."
At this moment, Feng Xi arrived with his team, standing before them.
The scene mirrored the earlier confrontation between Lanxicha and Sasley.
Chloe's gaze fell meaningfully on Feng Xi's face.
She broke into a smile, "What's the matter?"
Feng Xi had a typical East Asian appearance, handsome yet aloof - one could even call it an effeminate beauty.
He licked his lips, "Want to team up?"
Not only Chloe, but even the other Lanxicha team members were stunned by these words.
What did he mean by teaming up? Weren't they supposed to fight?
Daniel's fists fell to his sides as his brows furrowed deeply.
"Team up?" Chloe pondered for a moment, "Why would we want to team up with you? Don't you think you're being too rash?"
Feng Xi shook his head, "Because I don't want to fight you."
Daniel sneered, "Why, are you a coward?"
He scrutinized Feng Xi from head to toe with a contemptuous gaze.
Feng Xi's gaze turned cold as he glared fiercely back at Daniel.
Seeing this, Chloe frowned and rebuked, "Don't provoke him, Daniel."
Hearing this, Daniel scoffed dismissively and looked away, his face filled with defiance.
But at least he didn't continue to taunt the other party.
With tensions eased, Chloe calmly said, "This competition has already eliminated one military academy, and now only we, you, and Tagar Military Academy remain."
A playful smile curved her lips, "As you know, Tagar has always been on good terms with us. Why would we team up with you to confront Tagar?"
Feng Xi pursed his lips, then said, "Whether you like it or not, you and I will eventually face each other as opponents."
He looked at Chloe, "And for now, I don't wish to be your enemy. If you're unwilling to team up, that's fine."
Feng Xi paused, then continued, "We can form a temporary alliance and travel together. When we reach the destination, we'll settle things in a final showdown."
Silence fell after his words.
The other Lanxicha students exchanged glances, clearly puzzled by their leader's decision.
In contrast, The No.1 Military Academy remained steadfast.
Qin Huaibei and Katherine exchanged looks with each other, both finding Feng Xi's actions perplexing.
In this competition, any academies that crossed paths were destined for a fight to the death unless under exceptional circumstances. Lanxicha had just crushed Sasley, and that battle hadn't cost them any losses. They could have seized this opportunity to take down The No.1 Military Academy as well.
Why would they propose teaming up as soon as they met?
Even if they couldn't defeat The No.1 Military Academy, this battle would have been an excellent opportunity for Lanxicha to make a name for themselves.
Chloe couldn't figure it out either.
It was Anderson at the back who raised his cold, pensive gaze to meet Feng Xi's.
Their eyes met briefly before Feng Xi looked away.
Anderson narrowed his eyes.
After a tense silence, Chloe took a deep breath and turned to ask her teammates, "What do you all think?"
Daniel immediately raised his hand, "Forget teaming up, let's just beat him up!"
Chloe closed her eyes, "Be serious for once."
Daniel protested, "I am being serious!"
He vented angrily, "I got a bad vibe from that guy the moment I saw him. What about you all?"
Daniel looked to the others for their opinions.
Qin Huaibei and Katherine hesitated, remaining silent after a long pause. Daniel deflated in disappointment.
Just as he was about to give up, a voice suddenly came from behind:
"Hmm."
Daniel turned his head in surprise, "You think so too?!"
Anderson met his gaze with a calm look and nodded slowly.
"I knew it!" Daniel exclaimed excitedly, almost jumping up. He immediately turned to Chloe, "See, even Anderson agrees with me."
Chloe had such a good relationship with Anderson. If this didn't sway her, nothing would.
But to Daniel's disappointment, Anderson said, "I think he's not a good person, but given our current situation, forming an alliance is the most advantageous decision."
Daniel: "..."
Tsk, a false ally.
He instantly fell silent.
Chloe frowned. Although she didn't know why even Anderson thought Feng Xi wasn't a good person, if that was the case, then Feng Xi must indeed be problematic.
She turned to look back at him.
Not far away, Feng Xi and his team were seated together, but his gaze drifted towards them.
Chloe turned back, a calm smile on her face, "Their behavior is rather suspicious. They originally claimed to come for a decisive battle, but now..."
Her smile widened, "Let's wait and see what they're up to."
Chloe wanted to see whether Lanxicha simply lacked ambition or if they planned to betray and ambush them after forming an alliance.
