Liu Yan hurriedly checked the information of the guardian beast in front of him.
[Undyingy Fire Phoenix]
[Potential: SS]
[Level: 60]
[Others: …]
Its grade was too high, so he could not see its specific information. He could only learn that the guardian beast was a level 60 Undying Fire Phoenix with potential as high as the SS grade.
Although Liu Yan had defeated an SS-grade Earth Dragon before, that beast had only been at level 40. It was on a completely different level from the Undying Fire Phoenix of level 80. The difference in combat strength would be like Heaven and Earth.
Liu Yan thus had a rough understanding of the guardian beast’s strength.
He estimated that although there were some differences in the guardian beasts of each attribute territory, their levels should be about the same. They would only each have their strengths according to their attributes.
In terms of the Undying Fire Phoenix with the fire attribute, its combat strength was obviously extraordinary.
At this moment, the Undying Fire Phoenix was also staring at Liu Yan, as if it was waiting for his order.
Seeing this, Liu Yan gave an order based on common sense, “Patrol and rest in the territory, for now. I’ll call you if I have an order.”
Hearing this, the Undying Fire Phoenix immediately cried out, then flapped its wings and left.
When Liu Yan saw that his order was indeed effective, it immediately confirmed his previous guess. It seemed that it was indeed the case that with the fire attribute gem, he could temporarily become the owner of the fire attribute guardian beast, the Undying Fire Phoenix.
However, there was still a clear difference between being such an “owner” and being the owner of a beast with soul contact.
For example, Liu Yan had a telepathic connection with the Treasure Pangolin and the Shadow Wolf. He didn’t need to say the order. He could just give the order in his heart.
Giving orders was naturally not as convenient with the Undying Fire Phoenix. It was undoubtedly more troublesome to give the order verbally, especially at crucial moments in battle. There was a clear difference.
That being said, the guardian beast was also the key to this competition. He still had to pay more attention to this aspect in the future.
When the surrounding team members saw this, they were filled with envy.
Only the captain, Liu Yan, who possessed the fire attribute gem, could be so awe-inspiring and easily command such a powerful guardian beast.
However, after experiencing the events on level 4 of the Tower, everyone witnessed Liu Yan’s strength in many aspects. Most of them respected his abilities and leadership. As such, although they were envious, they were not jealous.
Liu Yan watched the Undying Fire Phoenix leave and turned to look at his team members. He said, “This is the first day. We are new here, so I plan to set up the temporary camp first. Although it is only a temporary camp, it is also very important. We need to choose a good place.”
Hearing that, everyone looked at each other and felt that what Liu Yan said made sense.
The temporary camp was undoubtedly extremely important. The location choice was extremely important.
“It makes sense. Liu Yan is right.”
“I just don’t know how to choose the specific location for the temporary camp.”
“If I were you, I would set it up in the center of the territory. That would be the most convenient. We would be close to wherever we want to go.”
“I don’t think so. The territory is so big. It might not be useful to build it in the middle.”
“Yeah, we still have to consider other aspects.”
“…”
Everyone suddenly had their own opinions and ideas.
Seeing this, Liu Yan continued, “Although the location of the temporary camp is important, it is not as important as collecting the Lord’s token fragments. This is the most important thing. Moreover, the temporary camp can be stored back into the fire attribute gem at any time and deployed in a new place. How about this, Luo Qingcheng and I will choose the location while you guys familiarize yourselves with the territory and explore the fog. At the same time, try to collect as many Lord’s token fragments as possible. The territory is relatively big but there isn’t much danger, so let’s split up. In the end, I will let the Undying Fire Phoenix cry from higher grounds to let you know the location of the temporary camp so that you can regroup. During the process, remember not to leave the territory. Otherwise, there might be danger.”
When the team members heard that Liu Yan’s orders were all well-organized and orderly, as well as the most suitable at the moment, they looked at him with surprise.
They had all witnessed his terrifying strength before and knew that he was a heaven-defying genius.
However, they didn’t expect that Liu Yan’s commanding ability was also so formidable. He was undoubtedly the most suitable to be the team’s commander.
“That makes sense. I think the captain’s arrangement is very appropriate. That’s what we’ll do them.”
“That’s right. Captain Liu’s command is too perfect. I didn’t think of so much.”
“That’s right. We’ll familiarize ourselves with the territory and explore the fog. Collecting the Lord’s token fragments is the most important thing at the moment. The captain has also thought of a way for us to gather. It’s simply foolproof.”
“That’s good then. Let’s quickly split up and see if the Lord’s token fragment is easy to collect.”
“…”
The members of the team were all outstanding students from Lighthouse Academy and Gifted Academy.
After what had happened on level 4 of the Tower, everyone had witnessed Liu Yan’s prowess and had long been convinced of his abilities.
At this moment, hearing Liu Yan’s perfect commands, they were instantly even more respectful of him.
As one of the genius students from Gifted Academy, Xu Han could not help but agree, “Liu Yan, your command is really good. It’s much more detailed than we thought. Let’s move out now, haha!”
Although he was also a genius, Xu Han could not help but have some trust in Liu Yan at this moment.
Even Allen Smith couldn’t help but take a glance at Liu Yan. He was a little surprised that the latter’s command was so considerate.
Soon, all the members scattered and went to work separately.
Liu Yan left Luo Qingcheng behind with him to consider the temporary campsite with him.
“Big brother Liu Yan, we’ll see you later,” Chu Long said goodbye to Liu Yan.
As for Murong Xue, she dived into the fog eagerly without saying a word.
Murong Xue had been holding back for a long time on level three and a half and level 4 of the Tower. She couldn’t wait any longer.
Now that she had finally arrived at level 5 of the Tower and started the real trial, she was already very excited.
Soon, the crowd dispersed, leaving only Liu Yan and Luo Qingcheng on the spot.
Luo Qingcheng looked at Liu Yan with some surprise. She couldn’t help but smile, “I was worried that you would feel pressure as the captain, but now it seems that my worries were completely unnecessary. Your commands just now could be said to be perfect, even I admire them.”
Hearing this, Liu Yan smiled helplessly, “What pressure is there? Besides, it’s not like I haven’t learned how to command before.”
Hearing this, Luo Qingcheng recalled that Liu Yan had also studied in Command School.
Although he had only read a few books, he had still learned a little.
In addition, the Vice Principal of Command School had a very high evaluation of Liu Yan, clearly pointing out that he also had an amazing talent for commanding.
At that time, Luo Qingcheng had not taken it seriously, but now it seemed that it was true.
Liu Yan had only read a few basic books in Command School. Now, it was his first time being the captain, yet he was able to methodically take on his responsibilities and issue a series of near-perfect commands. Even a genius of Command School like Luo Qingcheng was full of admiration for him.
