Chapter 533: Activity Begins; Domineering Xiong Shou! (1/2)
In the end, Bai Xiaofei was still too weak. Between the Master Rank peak-grade and the Exquisite Rank was an insurmountable gap. However, with the Endless State activated, Bai Xiaofei was constantly growing stronger and had now reached the edge of the Grandmaster Rank, waiting to take that last step. Once he did, he would enter a whole new world.
It didn’t take long for the remaining people to arrive. Upon seeing Xiong Shou, they all had the same reaction as Bai Xiaofei, trying to be as quiet as a mouse as if fearing they’d offend this scary-looking man.
“Although our information is already on the card, I will still make a simple introduction. Xiong Shou, a graduate of the 117th generation of students, currently the leader of the Berserk Bear Mercenary Group. My puppet is a Bloodthirsty Bear of the Transformation Stream, I’m good at close combat.”
After introducing himself, Xiong Shou scanned the group. Only one glance and he already had a rough idea of their strength.
Calling people like Xiong Shou big bosses wasn’t just talk. How could the leader of one of the most famous mercenary groups be a simple person?
“In the next month, I have only one request for you all: follow my orders. So that I can ensure that you all come out of the Infinite Mountain Range safely. If you can’t, then I say you should pray for your own luck!”
One month was the duration of the celebration, not long but not short either, considering that it was the Infinite Mountain Range they were going to live in during this time.
Everyone thought Xiong Shou would let them introduce themselves, but it turned out the guy had no interest in getting to know them at all. As far as Xiong Shou was concerned, they were of little help.
In the face of his domineering manner, Bai Xiaofei chose to keep silent. Seeing Bai Xiaofei keep silent, Sima Ye also didn’t say anything. Chu Tianyi had a similar idea to Sima Ye and tried not to stand out. As for the rest, Fei Gou didn’t even dare not look straight at Xiong Shou, while Luo Han only had Bai Xiaofei in her eyes and hid behind him all the time.
Only Wu Xizhao moved closer to Xiong Shou with a face full of smiles.
“Leader Xiong, my name is Wu Xizhao. I admire you very much. I wonder if I’d have a chance to become a member of your mercenary group?”
In the face of Wu Xizhao’s attention, Xiong Shou was rather lukewarm. He had met too many people like Wu Xizhao during the past several days in Starnet.
“Learn… what?” asked Wu Xizhao softly and nervously.
“Learn to shut up!” said Xiong Shou with a hint of disgust and a cold snort. As an authentic tough guy, what he hated most was this kind of opportunistic person.
Seeing Wu Xizhao eat a loss, the rest quietly learned from his lesson, while Bai Xiaofei burst out laughing.
“What are you laughing at?” Xiong Shou glanced at Bai Xiaofei, his ferocious face looking particularly scary.
“I’m in a good mood, so I can’t control myself from laughing,” replied Bai Xiaofei in a neither overbearing nor servile manner as he cupped his hands towards Xiong Shou.
“In a good mood?” Frowning slightly, Xiong Shou’s displeasure deepened.
“Yes, I’m in a good mood. I’ve had dealings with Wu Xizhao before and we’re on very bad terms, so I’m naturally happy to see him suffer. Moreover, I can see that you are very confident about this activity, so I feel like the big reward is not far from me and therefore I got even happier,” Bai Xiaofei said straightforwardly.
