The Return of the God Level Assassin Chapter 937: HEAVEN'S SPIRE

THE floor that Yunyue reserved for their training was in all white. From the floor to the walls to the ceiling. That's why it felt like they were in an infinite white void. It's hard to tell whether the space was small or endlessly wide.

But the size didn't really matter. There was a setting in this tower in which a floor or a room could be changed into any setting the occupant/s wanted.

"Everyone here knows that the one thing that our team currently lacks is teamwork," Shen Ji Yun started. "We have to fix that before preliminaries. What kind of training would you suggest so we could get the optimal result in the shortest period of ti?"

He looked at others, waiting for their suggestion.

"Since we're already here, wouldn't it be good to just do so tower defense or battle arena?" Bai Ze suggested, talking about two of the three modes in which teams would fight at the Cup. "If we play enough, I'm sure teamwork would co naturally."

"That's true. But playing in simulation against programd enemy, wouldn't really do us good," Shen Ji Yun said. "We need to fight against people who could think and analyze by themselves."

"I agree. We're going up against real players and not NPCs after all," Su Yuqi said.

"Correct," Shen Ji Yun nodded.

Luo Jin's brows furrowed a bit. "Are you suggesting we invite another team for a practice match?"

"No, what Brother Ji Yun wanted is a battle amongst ourselves," Luo Yan said. "We have eight people here. We can do a 4 vs 4 battle." He turned to Shen Ji Yun and smiled. "Am I right, Brother Ji Yun?"

"That's right," Shen Ji Yun said in a tone showing that he was very proud that Luo Yan imdiately understood what he ant. "A 4 vs 4 battle. But since there are mbers here who couldn't be separated, they would automatically be in one group."

"You're not referring to you and Xiao Yan, right?" Bai Ze said, looking at the two as if they were a pair of lovebirds that was only there to show off their love.

"He's talking about the pets and their owner," Su Yuqi explained as if she was talking to so five year old.

Realization ca to Bai Ze's face the mont he heard that. "Ah, that's right. I almost forgot about it."

Masters and pets were connected by the contract they made with each other. They could communicate telepathically and feel the presence of each other. So, them being in different teams would just not work. How could two people who could feel each other's every move fight?

"Pet? Are you referring to us? How dare you call this noble dragon a pet?" Rowan suddenly interjected, clearly very affronted by the suggestion that he was a pet. "Just because we sign a pact, it did not an that I beca the pet of this... this... stupid lion!" Then he turned to Dusk. "You will really just let them refer to us as pets?"

Before Dusk could answer, Eclipse had already spoken first. "Hey, have you ever been treated like a pet since you beca part of this team? I don't think so, right? So, what are you being offended by? It's just a term. It's not as if you will really be one if you heard soone call you that. Or does the mighty dragon actually considered himself as one deep inside?"

Rowan's whole face turned red in embarrassnt as soon as he heard Eclipse's words. "You--! What does a lower specie like you even know?"

"Stop," Dusk said in a deep voice, giving Rowan a cold glance.

That single glance stopped the red dragon from saying anything more.

Luo Yan raised his brow at that. It seed that the power dynamics between the two leaned more towards Dusk. Was it because he was the forr king of the dragons? Anyway, it's good that Rowan listened to the other. At least, there's one person, or in this case, NPC, he listened to in this team.

Shen Ji Yun cleared his throat to get everyone's attention. "If there's no more question, then, let's start grouping."

"Should we do it by rock-paper-scissors? Or should we draw ballots?" Bai Ze suggested.

"There's no need to do that. Brother Ze and I will team up together with Eclipse and Rowan. And Brother Ji Yun, Sister Yuqi, and Ah Jin will team up together with Dusk."

As soon as Luo Yan said that, Shen Ji Yun turned to him sharply. The expression on his face was like saying, 'why didn't you choose ?'. Luo Yan almost laughed at how adorable the other's reaction was.

"I think this is a very good pairing," he only added.

He had never played together with Bai Ze, like fighting together, things like that. The sa could also be said for Su Yuqi. But since Bai Ze had Rowan with him as a conditional plus one, he couldn't also pick the other.

Shen Ji Yun and Luo Jin were in the sa situation. The two had never really tried to fight together. They were even worse since their relationship wasn't that good compared to him and Bai Ze. But they had to get over whatever differences they might have if they wanted to work their team work. Or if they couldn't, at least just reach a point where they wouldn't be a stumbling block from one another.

"I agree with this pairing!" Bai Ze quickly said.

Luo Jin looked very dissatisfied. He seed to want to say sothing, but at the end decided not to.

"I have no problem as well," Su Yuqi said with a shrug.

Luo Yan turned to Shen Ji Yun. "How about you, Brother Ji Yun?"

Shen Ji Yun stared at him as if studying every nook and cranny of his face. At the end, he could only sigh and nodded, showing his agreent. Albeit very reluctantly.

"Brother Ji Yun, don't go easy on , okay? And I will also do the sa," Luo Yan said with a smile.

Even though he was smiling, one could see that there was an underlying aning behind it.
