Chapter 156 Abnormal
We soon arrived at the designated camping site.
However, they still did not encounter any strange beasts on the way.
The square was covered in thick dust, but there were also obvious traces of recent movements of strange beasts.
There are rows of small shops on both sides, which still store goods that were not taken away before the evacuation.
However, after thousands of years, most of them are no longer usable.
Sheng Jiayi and Shen Wang barely managed to find some usable supplies from the shops, such as igniters, waterproof cloth, and several types of mineral materials.
Xie Wenyu and Qiao Zhiyu quickly cleared out a place and set up their tent.
After the camp was set up, Xie Wenyu arranged for the other three to go to the exotic beast points marked on the map to obtain points.
He and Yu Zhi stayed to look after the camp.
Because everyone had reached a preliminary consensus in the first two team matches, there were no longer different opinions as in the beginning.
However, not long after Chen Wang and his companions left, they sent a message back to Xie Wenyu.
[Something is wrong. There are only a few low-level exotic beasts at the exotic beast site.]
At the speed at which they landed and set up camp, it was almost impossible for other teams to clear out the monster site before them.
What's more, there is not even a monster corpse in this monster spot.
It was as if... all the strange beasts imprisoned here had escaped.
Xie Wenyu naturally would not doubt the judgment of Chen Wang and others, not to mention that he had already noticed something unusual since he landed just now.
【Come back first.】Xie Wenyu sent a message.
Then he tried to communicate with the competition team on the starship through the emergency communicator, but received no response.
He gestured towards the "Eye in the Sky" in the sky again, but there was still no response.
Xie Wenyu frowned, looked around carefully, and began to think.

The rest of the military academy teams also experienced similar situations.
We didn't encounter any strange beasts along the way, and even at the strange beast spots where many strange beasts should have gathered, there were only a few.
Many military academy students expressed the same doubts, but did not think about it further.
I just thought that maybe someone else got there first, or that I was just unlucky.
But at this time, the Star Network audience saw a completely different scene.
In the "live broadcast" footage, military cadets were bravely killing strange beasts, and there were also teams that arrived at the combat readiness points relatively smoothly.
Everything looks like a normal game scene.
At most, some viewers would sigh and say that this military academy, which is ranked lower, is lucky and no members have been eliminated.
The event team members on the starship, as well as senior officials from major military academies and the Federal Empire, all saw the same content as that displayed on the star network.
There were no abnormalities in the data displayed on the instruments in the control center.
The staff even enjoyed afternoon tea leisurely.

Inside the stadium.
Even though Xie Wenyu noticed something unusual, his first reaction was that it was just to test this year's military academy students, and the competition group might have other special arrangements.
After all, the Military Academy League is a super large-scale event organized jointly by the Empire and the Federation.
Each competition venue has also undergone several surveys and inspections in advance.
A special logistics team will also be sent to arrange all combat readiness points, exotic beast points, and sky eyes.
It is almost impossible for any other accidents to happen.
Chen Wang and the other two hurried back and reported what happened along the way to Xie Wenyu.
"We didn't encounter any other military academy teams, nor did we see any signs of other people passing by nearby."
Xie Wenyu pondered and said, "Yu Yao and Wei Chuan also said that they didn't encounter any strange beasts. In any case, we need to be more careful."
Until we know for sure what the real test will be in the event group's arrangements, we can only be doubly cautious.
On the first night, he simply arranged for Qiao Zhiyu and Sheng Jiayi to keep watch at the same time.
Since they no longer had to guard against strange beasts coming out of the ground, and they were all still fully exhausted, Yu Zhi was able to sleep in a tent all to himself.
Xie Wenyu and Shen Wang also had their own separate tents.
Outside.
Sheng Jiayi finally had the time and space to ask the questions he wanted to know most.
"Brother Yu..." His expression was a little complicated, "Did you get what you wanted?"
Even though I already had the answer in my heart, I still couldn't help but want to confirm it myself.
Qiao Zhiyu glanced at him, with a hint of uncontrollable complacency between his brows.
"Um."
He tried his best to maintain a cool and calm demeanor and snorted through his nose.
But as a brother who grew up together, Sheng Jiayi could see his true emotions.
"Thank you very much." Qiao Zhiyu stabbed his brother in the chest without any hesitation, "Tell her my birthday."
“…You’re welcome.” Sheng Jiayi squeezed out these three words.
It turned out that day was a surprise he and Yu Zhi had completed.
But... since Qiao Zhiyu has already achieved his wish...
"As a brother, I have helped you so much, shouldn't you help me too?"
Sheng Jiayi's true intentions were revealed.
However, Qiao Zhiyu jumped back as if his butt was on fire.
"Don't even think about it!"
Light brown eyes glared at the fiery red peach eyes.
The latter said with a hurt tone, "Brother Yu, would you rather let Zhizhi be with those two than help me...?"
"It's Xiaozhi's own choice who to be with. How can I interfere?" Qiao Zhiyu retorted with a clear mind.
"Besides, based on your previous behavior, whether she is willing to accept you is a question."
Sheng Jiayi was speechless.
That's why he was so anxious and wanted to get Qiao Zhiyu's help.
"I just need you to talk to Zhizhi for me occasionally..."
"No." Qiao Zhiyu refused decisively, "You can go and talk to them yourself."
He would never do something that might anger his woman for his brother.
What's more, he is here to steal my girl!
He refrained from beating Sheng Jiayi because he had no other choice.
Sheng Jiayi returned empty-handed and had to abandon this strategy.
I could only silently complain in my heart that Qiao Zhiyu was too unkind.

The second day on Jilan Star.
Qiao Zhiyu and Sheng Jiayi, who had been on guard all night, were a little tired.
But as soon as Yu Zhi came out of the tent, he sent a small ball of energy to the two of them, which boosted their spirits.
However, the two of them came up with the same idea.
It seems that it’s not good for Zhizhi to be too powerful now...
No intimate contact is required to comfort.
Qiao Zhiyu, who has tasted more flavors and has a legitimate reason, is slightly better.
Sheng Jiayi looked a little depressed.
Apart from comforting each other during the game, he seemed to have no other reason to be close to Yu Zhi like this.
He only had the opportunity to experience the dream for a short period of time by asking the principal to exchange a place on the team.
Wait until the military academy league is over.
Maybe his relationship with Yu Zhi will end completely from now on.
