Chapter 24: Which Little Fellow Is So Slow

This way, Feng Yin needed to confirm how many candidates had disappeared. Then, he would compare it with the list of candidates who had gone out in advance and find out which candidates had gone missing. After the assessment ended, he would see if there was a need to look for them.

The examinees’ actual combat experience was very poor. In the end, the main force resisting the beast tide was still these soldiers in the mystic realm.

Feng Yin thought about this for a moment and directly asked Xiao Yu to call the strongest examinees over and give them an order.

The remaining examinees would split up and be led by these students who were about to break through to Martial Master.

Excavating traps before the battle. When the real battle began, if there were still candidates who had the courage to fight the mutated beasts in the mutated beast tide, they could directly step forward and join the side battle.

Naturally, he could not hand over the main seat to these examinees. As for the warriors, after Feng Yin asked around, they all said that there was a small team patrolling outside. Under normal circumstances, they should have returned by now.

“You should have an emergency solution when looking for people, right? Don’t save it at this time. Just use it.” As Feng Yin listened to the report from the warrior in charge of counting the number of soldiers, he immediately gave the order.

Initially, the warrior was hesitant to listen to Feng Yin. After all, Feng Yin was just a student who had not left the campus. They could not guarantee that Feng Yin’s orders would be correct. There were only two smoke bombs left in the entire camp. A new batch had yet to be added. If he used up both of them and there was an emergency later, it would be useless.

All the thoughts in the warrior’s mind were retracted when he saw the genius badge pinned to Feng Yin’s chest. This was the owner of the genius badge. Moreover, the deputy instructor behind Feng Yin did not say that it was impossible, which meant that this plan was definitely feasible.

As long as he advanced to university, he would know about the genius badge.

In the beginning, the Nine Provinces Federation would still strictly guard against the matter of the genius badge. Later on, they found that it was more beneficial for the people of the Nine Provinces to have information if they made it public. Therefore, they no longer deliberately controlled this matter.

Feng Yin had never known about it. It was mainly because Langya Base City was too small. Very few people in this city knew about the genius badge, let alone how to obtain it.

Soldiers in the military were different. Whether they finished university and joined the army, or broke through to the martial artist realm after the college entrance examination, they joined the army.

After all, from the moment they joined the army, they had been told about the genius badge.

Most normal people, after knowing about the genius badge, would think that the more people who had this badge, the better. Thus, they subconsciously developed a certain amount of admiration for such people.

After all, it was still very difficult to obtain a genius badge. If Feng Yin had not refined a Perfect Grade Body Refinement Pill back then, he would still need to go through some procedures to obtain this badge.

Only a perfect-grade Body Refinement Pill could allow Feng Yin to directly obtain the genius badge.

Xu Baiyu chose to hand the matters of the camp over to Feng Yin. Firstly, Feng Yin had a genius badge that could make his soldiers obey him. At the same time, Feng Yin was also an examinee, so the examinees should be able to listen to what he said.

There was nothing where the examinee felt that “you warriors might not even be as good as me. Why should I listen to you?” would happen when the warrior gave the order.

Of course, the most important thing was still the campsite. Other than him, there was also the deputy instructor. If Feng Yin’s order was too ridiculous, the deputy instructor would also remind him.

After their short interaction, Xu Baiyu felt that Feng Yin was not the kind of person who would not listen to others’ opinions. If the other party spoke nicely, Feng Yin would still be able to listen.

How should he put it? Xu Baiyu was a good judge of character.

Feng Yin might not be considered a true genius in terms of vision and strength. There were always some people in the Nine Provinces who were more outstanding than Feng Yin. However, it was also because of this that Feng Yin knew very clearly that he was not the most outstanding one. There were many people who were more outstanding than him.

When making decisions, sometimes it’s okay to listen to other people’s opinions.

Therefore, when the deputy instructor saw that Feng Yin had given out orders one after another, but had not given any instructions regarding the request for help, he made a suggestion and Feng Yin gladly agreed.

“Sir, the mutated beast tide has erupted. It’s far from enough to rely on the defense in the mystic realm alone. We need to ask for help from the outside world.”

“I’ve thought of this too, but the mystic realm is currently undergoing an assessment. Didn’t they say that it can’t be connected to the outside world? Is there another way to contact them?” Feng Yin had long wanted to ask for help from the outside world, but because Xu Baiyu had said that the passageway between the mystic realm and the outside world was cut off before entering this place, he had not made any arrangements in this direction.

Based on the deputy instructor’s words, did the military have any other solutions?

“There’s a way, but I’m not sure it’ll work.” The deputy instructor thought for a moment and said it. When he was making the suggestion to Feng Yin, he had forgotten that it was the time of the assessment. The secret realm and the passageway to the outside world were temporarily closed.

Now that he had said it, he couldn’t possibly say that he had forgotten about it, could he? After thinking for a while, the deputy instructor remembered that there was an array master who had set up a backup plan here.

According to the array master, if all the electronic equipment in the mystic realm was damaged for some reason and could not be connected to the outside world, he could try using that array formation.

The deputy instructor wasn’t sure if that thing was useful or not. There weren’t many array formations in the entire human race, and he had never heard of such a thing elsewhere.

However, thinking about it, they were all things sent over by the people from the Nine Provinces Federation. At most, they would be useless and nothing would happen. The deputy instructor still said it.

“Take it out and try. What if it succeeds?” Feng Yin wasn’t sure if what the instructor said would work, but he still decided to use it.

Feng Yin asked the instructor to take that thing out. When he saw the extremely simple paper box in front of him, he was stunned. The array formation in front of him was said to be asking for help from the outside world. It was too simple. It was so simple that Feng Yin did not want to admit that it was useful.

“How do I use this thing?” Feng Yin turned to look at the deputy instructor. He pointed at the box in front of him and asked. “Forget it. You stay here and figure out how to call for help. I’ll go outside and see how it’s going.”

“Okay.” The deputy instructor nodded. After Feng Yin left the command tent, he reached out and opened the box, revealing the circuit inside.

Thinking of the steps that Xu Baiyu had given him, the deputy instructor followed Xu Baiyu’s instructions strictly. He corresponded to the memories in his mind and pressed the complicated buttons one by one.

The moment he pressed the button, a series of sounds suddenly sounded from the surveillance room in Langya Base City that was specially in charge of monitoring the examinees.

“Quick, quick, quick. The little guy in the mystic realm has finally found this distress box. Let’s see which little guy is so slow!”
