Although Wang Zheng knew that the two of them would definitely win, since activating superpowers consumes spiritual energy, and once the spiritual energy is exhausted, Lao Lei will definitely lose. However, if he had decisively swung his knife just now, at the very least, the other party would have lost an arm.
Wang Zheng threw the four dead dogs at him one in each hand in turn.
Then he walked straight into the three-person battle circle. Wu Huan and Chu Xiaoman immediately sheathed their swords and retreated. Lao Lei, who was in the midst of the fierce battle, was overjoyed and wanted to retreat to his companions, but in an instant a large hand grabbed his neck.
With a little force, Wang Zheng saw cracks immediately appear around the steel-like neck, and the cracking sound was quite pleasant.
Old Lei was terrified and immediately begged for mercy, instantly deactivating his superpower: "Brother, big brother, be gentle, stop pinching me, it's going to explode, it's going to explode..."
Wang Zheng wouldn't let go, grabbing his neck and saying, "Your ability looks familiar. Right, the first human to awaken was someone with this ability, wasn't it? How come everyone else is an awakener, but you're the one who's fallen short?"
Old Lei quickly smiled apologetically, "He's a hero who awakened naturally, while I'm just an ordinary person who awakened with the help of a potion. How can we compare?"
"Tell me, why are there five of you, and how did you find us?"
"Because the four of them shared a dorm in the training camp, and Huang Mao and I went to the same school. None of us are particularly talented; we all awakened our potential with the help of potions. We came to the island this time to try our luck in the rankings and get some rewards. We just saw a fire in the mountains across the way, so we thought we'd come and try our luck." Old Lei looked at Wang Zheng, his gaze somewhat evasive.
"They're just trying to make some ill-gotten gains by taking advantage of their numbers!"
"Alright! Although I think it's unlikely, I still want to say it: five of you, five cameras in total, 500 points, 100 points each, give me a coin and I'll release you." Wang Zheng casually exposed Lao Lei's little scheme.
At first, Lao Lei was a little confused when he heard Wang Zheng talking, but when he heard about the camera and points, his face turned bitter. The five of them had been wandering around the island all day, exhausted, and had only earned 12 points. How could they possibly earn 100 points each?
Wang Zheng knew from Lao Lei's expression that it was hopeless, so he punched him unconscious and threw him into the crowd.
After finding a total of two silver coins, two copper coins, and four coins on the five men, Wang Zheng casually crushed the recording devices of the other four men.
Then he tapped on Lao Lei's camera and said, "Hello, hello, is anyone there? If you don't announce their elimination, I'll have to break their arms and legs!"
After waiting for a long time without receiving a reply, Wang Zheng could only take out a large hammer from his storage space and start gesturing at Lao Lei.
The response came through the earpiece immediately: "Trainee No. 58 Wang Zheng, Trainee No. 58 Wang Zheng, stay put and stand by. Rescue personnel will arrive in three minutes."
After receiving a positive reply, Wang Zheng crushed Lao Lei's camera and leisurely went back to the small cave to rest.
Less than three minutes later, an instructor in camouflage uniform descended from the sky. Ignoring Wang Zheng and the other two, he used his mental power to lift the five people on the ground and left.
Once everyone had gone far away, Wang Zheng began to lecture Chu Xiaoman, "Why did you hesitate when I told you to chop?"
Chu Xiaoman mumbled something but couldn't speak.
"The reason you're standing here is because I dealt with the other four people first. Chu Xiaoman, let me give you a hypothetical scenario: if I didn't have the ability to deal with the other four people, or if I wasn't even there, and it was just you and Wu Huan, how would you handle it?"
Seeing that Chu Xiaoman kept her head down and didn't speak, Wang Zheng continued, "Either you retreat the moment they show hostility and give them the resting spot if they want it. Since you're unwilling, and you even threatened him with a knife, yet he still recklessly approaches, why don't you just cut him down?"
“I’m very disappointed in you now. If you don’t trust your own judgment, then you should have acted decisively after I told you to attack, instead of giving him a chance to activate his powers. Wu Huan is much better than you in this respect; at least she has never questioned my decisions!”
Wang Zheng's tone was stern. He wasn't truly disappointed; given Chu Xiaoman's personality, it would be abnormal for her to directly injure someone. He simply wanted to teach these two girls a lesson, to prevent them from viewing the relationships between Awakened with such naivety.
In this era, most people possess extraordinary strength from the age of fifteen or sixteen. If this is only within the school, it's fine, but once they leave school and enter society, there are many who will fight each other at the slightest disagreement. If they cannot change their mindset early on, they will definitely suffer greatly in the future.
After saying that, Wang Zheng walked out of the small valley with his hands behind his back, looked at the dark starry sky outside, and began to revise his plans.
After Wang Zheng returned, Chu Xiaoman, encouraged by Wu Huan, took the initiative to apologize to Wang Zheng.
Seeing her aggrieved expression, Wang Zheng was both amused and annoyed. He didn't say anything more, arranged the night watch, and the three of them went to rest.
On this pitch-black deserted island, the night seems even more dangerous. The boundless darkness seems to be swallowing everything, and who knows how many people will be eliminated after tonight.
Nothing was said that night.
The next morning, just as dawn broke, the three of them packed up and set off. Following the terrain he had seen from the mountaintop the day before, Wang Zheng headed towards the center of the island.
Wu Huan led the way, Chu Xiaoman walked in the middle, and Wang Zheng brought up the rear, marking the path as they went.
The journey was quite smooth, except for encountering a second-grade earth pig and a first-grade spirit herb rabbit. Wang Zheng casually dealt with them, gaining 6 points of spiritual energy and receiving one copper and one silver coin.
