The group was somewhat surprised; they hadn't expected this seemingly gentle woman to say such a thing, "Isn't that a bit inappropriate?"

Bai Jie turned her gaze to Long Yue and whispered, "What's wrong with that? Look at that kid, he's just a student. How can he shoulder such a big responsibility? Is it worth us entrusting our lives to him?"

"But they are, after all, among the top ten! Even if they are young, their strength is undeniable!"

"Strength?" Bai Jie's voice was laced with disdain, and her eyes and brows were filled with an air of superiority. "Just a little brat, what do you know about their strength? Maybe they didn't even earn their points themselves?"

Bai Jie winked at the group as if she knew something, looking rather mysterious.

Some people frowned upon hearing this, saying, "You talk as if you're so powerful. The situation is so dire right now, and you're still spreading sarcastic remarks!"

"Shut up! If you're so capable, why don't you do it? You're just spouting nonsense. This has become such a big problem, why don't you handle it? We've been bullied like this by the people from Binbei District, why don't you say anything? They gathered us together, and regardless of the final outcome, just for their guts, I, Gao Yi, admire them."

"As for you? You're so petty and narrow-minded, clearly someone who's more trouble than they're worth. So what if he's young? He's already a level five martial artist despite his young age. Look at you, you've got wrinkles around your eyes, still trying to act young, old lady—"

Gao Yi looked at Bai Jie with disdain. In fact, since martial artists have become longer-lived, everyone's growth has slowed down. Apart from height, a twenty-year-old's appearance is only equivalent to that of a ten-year-old child a hundred years ago. Of course, those who are good-looking are still good-looking, unless their genes are from the neighbor's family.

Bai Jie never expected that someone would say such a thing about her. In an instant, her face turned red and white with anger, and her chest heaved violently, as if she couldn't breathe and was having a heart attack.

Gao Yi looked at Bai Jie as if she were a plague god. "Forget it, I'd better stay away from people like you. What if you stab me in the back? I'd have nowhere to cry then."

As soon as Gao Yi spoke, two other people followed suit, looking at Bai Jie with wariness in their eyes.

Bai Jie gritted her teeth, her eyes blazing with fury as she glared at Gao Yi, wishing she could throw him to feed the monsters. He had ruined her plans with just a few words. Damn it!

...

Pei Yi curled a sinister smile, his eyes filled with undisguised smugness. He greedily watched as the people from Binnan District were surrounded by their martial artists. As long as he got their points, he would definitely be the most outstanding martial artist in this Level 5 battlefield.

"So? If you don't want to suffer any physical pain, hand over all your points. Once you've handed over the points, I'll let you leave. How about it?"

"Enough with the nonsense. If you want points, come and get them yourself!" Longyue's eyes were mocking, and her face was full of sarcasm.

“We, the warriors of Binnan District, are not as shameless as those of your Binbei District. We have principles and backbone. To be defeated without a fight is not our style!”

"Fight for the glory of Binnan District!"

"Fight for our homeland!"

"Fight for our parents and brothers!"

"war!"

"war!"

The warriors of Binnan District had burning eyes, full of fighting spirit, and their momentum was overwhelming!

"What's there to be afraid of? As long as we don't die, it will be the people from Binbei District who die!"

"As long as they're alive, we'll take them down!"

Longyue had already chosen Pei Yi; their short daggers clashed, sparks flying.

"Stop struggling in vain. You are no match for me. Your Binnan District will not escape our grasp either!" Pei Yi said with a gloomy face the moment he clashed with Long Yue.

"Whether you can escape or not, we'll find out soon enough!" Longyue responded to Pei Yi with an even more ferocious attack, specifically targeting the man's weaknesses.

The current situation is pressing. The population of Binbei District is half again as large as theirs, so a swift and decisive battle is needed, especially since "to catch the thief, first catch the king!"

Although the people of Binbei District may not necessarily respect Pei Yi, he is undoubtedly the leader now, and most of the points are with him. If Pei Yi were to disappear, the people of Binbei District would definitely panic.

Of course, Pei Yi is certainly not the only outstanding person in Binbei District; it's just that he hasn't stood out as much due to his strong presence.

Pei Yi is domineering; he wants Longyue's points, so he will absolutely not allow anyone to interfere in his struggle.

"Why bother with a woman like you? Why not come with me? I'll have food, drink, and money to spend."

"My situation is very simple. You just need to take care of the kids for me. You don't need to do anything else. Are you interested?"

"Let me tell you, there are plenty of women who want to marry me, but I don't think they're any of them. You're not bad to me, though. Why don't you consider it?"

After getting up close to Longyue, Pei Yi was not only shocked by her martial arts skills, but also discovered that she was exactly the type he liked.

So he kept talking trash in Oborozuki's ear, trying to distract her!

"You have good talent. If you come with me, I won't treat you badly!"

"How about this? If you follow me, I won't need your points, and I'll still keep you in the top ten, okay?"

Pei Yi felt that it would be a waste not to recruit such a talent. Once he had him, he could do whatever he wanted with him. Wouldn't that be wonderful?

Pei Yi's plan was wonderful, but unfortunately, Long Yue wasn't feeling so good; she kept nagging even during a fight.
