Chapter 1408: Chapter 1408

While Du You was quickly developing his strength, Xi Qianxue and Li Mengyao were also rapidly developing their own teams with his support. These two teams could now be said to be the most eye-catching teams in the academy.

At present, both teams were in the final sprint. They were within the Undead World controlled by the academy. Although this world was uncomfortable, it was the fastest place for self-improvement.

There were the most quests here, and plenty of strong opponents of the same level. Even if they could only operate within safe zones, they were still able to find plenty of enemies to hunt, so the growth rate of the team was incredibly fast.

"Now we’re just waiting for you, hurry up and level up, then we can head to other worlds."

Lan Xiaodie pouted her lips. What could she do? She was an Earth Attribute Summoner, mainly used for support, not a main fighter. It was hard enough to keep up with others. This was with everyone else taking care, giving most of the Origin Crystal Coins from treasure chests to her; otherwise she’d be even slower.

"Yeah, even I’ve reached tier four now. We’re all just waiting for you," Moyuer said with a smile.

"Hmph, you’re of the Light Attribute, you’re bound to be support in other worlds, but in this one, your attack power is stronger than anyone else’s." This was not a trivial matter; the Light Attribute was indeed a strong counter to the average Undead.

Unless it was a special type of Undead, a single healing spell could cause them significant damage.

"Don’t talk too much, let’s fight," Daniu called out loudly from the front.

"Aren’t you curious about where our two leaders will take us? This world is already not bad," Huorong Qing said with a glint in his eyes. Indeed, this world was already great for their development.

Originally, being from the Huorong Family, Huorong Qing had a status comparable to Li Mengyao, but who could’ve envisioned Li Mengyao having the support of Du You, that outlet for development being so robust?

It was one thing to reach tier six, but to also build a huge first-rate force was another. Although Du You’s power was not yet on par with the entire Huorong Family, it was close. And who knew, he might surpass them any day given his rapid development, whether it was him personally or the company under his command.

Now, although the family was watching him, they had firmly tied him to Li Mengyao.

At first, the family hinted that he could try to seduce Du You, and then he would definitely be able to achieve the same status as Li Mengyao. The family would fully support him, and Huorong Qing himself was willing.

Du You was not a despicable person, quite the opposite of promiscuous, which was rare for a strong person in this world.

Furthermore, Du You’s personality was good, his potential was great, and Huorong Qing did not dislike him. Unfortunately, due to Li Mengyao, Huorong Qing had no such plans at the beginning, as he did not believe in Du You’s potential.

Having not formed any relationship with Du You initially, it was probably not so easy to strike one up now.

The key thing was that this would also anger Li Mengyao, and the outcome would be counterproductive. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩·𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖·𝘯𝘦𝘵

So in the end, Huorong Qing dismissed those ideas from his family, followed Li Mengyao faithfully as a friend. As long as Li Mengyao grew stronger, he too would gain an increasingly better future.

There was no need to take on significant risk for a step further, was there?

Of course, what was most important was that Du You was busy, and it wasn’t easy for Huorong Qing to find opportunities to spend time with him. Personally, Huorong Qing did not think he could compare to his good friend Li Mengyao.

Daniu rolled his eyes. He didn’t know what Huorong Qing was thinking, but he knew what his lady, Xi Qianxue, had in mind. He had even keenly noticed that Xi Qianxue had been acting strange lately, though he said nothing about it.

This reticent and taciturn Daniu was actually the most perceptive member of the team.

"What else could it be, it’s definitely related to Du You. Remember that Du You seems to have hidden one or several exclusive worlds? I think that’s where we’re heading next."

"Is that so, but are those places even more advanced than this world?" Lan Xiaodie asked, somewhat puzzled.

Daniu rolled his eyes again: "What does it matter if a world’s level is slightly higher or lower for us? After all, we’re just tier four. What really matters is safety, information, and resources. Entering a world controlled by a territory for so long, naturally, we would be protected by the army, allowing us to be more relaxed."

Now everyone understood. It turns out that was the situation. Just like in this world, where the academy designated a safe zone for them, but the academy couldn’t be overly protective as there were so many people in the school.

With more Professionals, there are more people to share the cake with, and each person gets less.

But under Du You’s command, it was different. In his private worlds, there were only a few of them as outsiders. As long as they did not mess up, they were sure to get a very substantial share.

Even if the world level might be a bit lower, they would still achieve a faster development rate.

Xi Qianxue did not hide anything and openly acknowledged it: "Daniu is right, we are indeed going to the worlds controlled by Du You, worlds without other Professionals. Everyone understands the benefits."

Daniu subtly rolled his eyes again. Recently, the icy Xi Qianxue seemed to have thawed, becoming more talkative, especially when mentioning Du You. Even an idiot could see it, right?

No, there was one person who was oblivious, Li Mengyao, who was equally excited when talking about Du You, completely unaware of Xi Qianxue’s change. Of course, no one was going to point it out.

It’s their family matter after all, it’s easy to cause misunderstandings if an outsider speaks rashly. Better to let them figure it out themselves.

Just then, Lan Xiaodie suddenly said, "Ah, I have enough Crystal Coins, finally I can reach the limit. Please help everyone, if we complete the advance quest we can leave."

"Reached the limit already? Let’s get started then, let’s see what your advance quest is. With so many of us helping, failure is impossible." So, the group began their advance quest right there in the world.

Unbeknownst to Du You, Li Mengyao and Xi Qianxue were already preparing to develop in the Yalan World.
