Chapter 1972 - Too Heartbreaking (1)

Early in the morning, Shen Yanxiao was resting in her room when Kehr suddenly visited her.

“Mentor Kehr, what’s the matter?” Shen Yanxiao looked at Kehr standing outside the door with a happy expression.

“Yan Di, there’s something you’ll be happy to hear.” Kehr smiled.

“Oh?” Shen Yanxiao raised her eyebrows slightly. She had been staying in Deathfire Academy all day to improve her physical skills and death energy, and she had vaguely broken through to the realm of a high-level undead. This breakthrough made her very curious. Was she a resurrected undead or a purebred undead? Although her training was boring, Shen Yanxiao had been enduring it. She just wanted to leave as soon as possible and return to the Hidden Dragon Continent to join her companions.

“My Lord has issued an order to hold a selection competition in all the academies in the Howling Abyss. Each academy will send out their best team to participate. The team who wins the competition can be promoted to my Lord’s royal guards!” As the commander-in-chief of the undead army in the Howling Abyss, Kehr had always taken it as his duty to protect the Undead Lord. There were very few undead around the Undead Lord. It could be said that joining the royal guards was the dream of every undead.

However, there was no joy on Shen Yanxiao’s face.

The Undead Lord suddenly wanted to hold a selection competition, which was not good news for her.

It had been half a year since she left the Brilliance Continent, and there were only two and a half years left before the Devil race would reappear in the world. The undead had always relied on the Devil race to survive. If the Devil race wanted to conquer other races, they would certainly contact the Undead race again to form an alliance. The previous plan of the undead in the Hidden Dragon Continent had been declared a failure, and now they could only choose excellent members from within.

Shen Yanxiao felt that the winner of this competition was not important. The main goal of the Undead Lord holding such a competition was probably to use this as a platform to select the elites from all the students. No matter who won or lost, those who could stand out from each school must be the undead teenagers with the most potential. As long as these teenagers were gathered together, they would soon be a terrifying team on the training ground.

If what Shen Yanxiao guessed was true, then the devils and the undead should have already contacted each other.

“Is that so? That’s pretty good,” Shen Yanxiao said.

“Don’t be so cold. I’m here to tell you that your Flaming Red Squad has been selected as the participating team in this selection competition. It’s just that the number of undeads in each team in this competition must be 100, so we may have to arrange some students with potential for you to be responsible for. Of course, you will be able to choose these students personally.” Kehr was in a good mood. As soon as the dean of Deathfire Academy received the news, he handed over the task of leading the team to Shen Yanxiao. Shen Yanxiao could make a group of mediocre students have such strong fighting strength in two months, so naturally, she could train more talents before the competition.

Shen Yanxiao was surprised. She wondered why Kehr came to her so early in the morning. It turned out that he had given her such a difficult problem.

If Shen Yanxiao were a real undead, she would be happy to accept this mission, but she was not!

She already vaguely felt that something was wrong. Asking her to lead the team, wasn’t this clearly asking her to personally train a group of brats and then let them go to the battlefield? In two and a half years, she might even have to meet her group of brats on the battlefield!
