Report

The Samira Business Group provided Burwick's team with several boxes of dried rations, a saber, a set of armor, and several wolf snares. Burwick and his team then held a grand oath ceremony in the square of Wild Wolf Castle. After the oath ceremony, Burwick, like a general, led the more than 200 members of the "Male Lion Association" and marched towards the Crescent Prairie.

Almost one-fifth of the horny students in the Seventh National High School followed Burwick and prepared to "make contributions" to the Crescent Prairie.

In this pledging ceremony, many girls were shouting Burwick's name in the square. Coupled with the charming smile on Burwick's face and his bright golden hair, Burwick was in the limelight for a while. This name was regarded by many as the most outstanding representative of all the students in this survival training.

Many horny students were stimulated to the point that their blood was boiling. They wished that they could be like Burwick and enjoy the cheers of the girls at this moment. Being able to lead a team to the Crescent Prairie to hunt LV 2 golden wolves and pick the life-saving Goose-neck Grass, which was filled with masculinity and bravery, was promoted by the Samira Business Group as a righteous act. As a result, Burwick became a hero in the eyes of many girls, as well as the most dazzling star in this survival training.

When Burwick became a star, Zhang Tie was standing on the edge of the square like a slave laborer, looking at the glorious Burwick. It had been three days since Zhang Tie had washed his clothes. Mining and carrying mines, which were very difficult to keep clean and tidy, made Zhang Tie's clothes look a bit dirty. Zhang Tie's face was also a bit dirty. After working hard for a whole morning, the sweat on his forehead and sideburns had left several clear mud grooves on his face. The moment they approached him, the girls with sharp noses could even smell the sour smell of sweat from his body. Compared to Burwick, who was wearing a full set of bright armor, Zhang Tie looked like a general while Zhang Tie was a country bumpkin. They were simply incomparable.

Zhang Tie looked at the complacent faces of the horny students of the "Male Lion Association" with a slightly gloomy and pitiful expression. Inside, he scolded them — idiots!

Burwick's ambition and cruelty made Zhang Tie astonished and vigilant. Golden wolves were LV 2 living beings, while Burwick was a LV 1 warrior who had ignited his Shrine burning point. As a LV 1 warrior, it was impossible for Burwick not to know that no matter how well the Male Lion Association cooperated with each other, if they wanted to hunt a LV 2 golden wolf, they had to catch it alive in order to ensure that its bone marrow would be fresh when they sent it to Blackhot City. It was almost impossible for there to be no casualties. Burwick knew that there would be casualties, but he was still prepared to use his influence and the animals' trust in him to do this. This only showed that in Burwick's mind, these animals who trusted him were things that could be sacrificed at any time, and were just stepping stones for him to climb up to the top. Compared to Glaze, Burwick was much more sinister and terrifying. If Glaze was a ferocious wolf that was ready to bare its fangs at any time, then Burwick would definitely be a vicious wolf. Burwick was a wolf in sheep's clothing. He hid his ambition and ruthlessness under a harmless facade, and mingled with the sheep. Because of this, he was more lethal and could confuse others.

Zhang Tie didn't intend to be the bullsh * t justice messenger anymore. He felt that even if he said something at this moment, he would not be able to do anything. For these hot-headed fellows, it was useless. As long as they could kill a Golden Wolf and pick a gooseneck grass, they would not be able to do anything. As long as they could kill a golden wolf and pick a goose-neck grass, they would be able to obtain a good battle saber. This was an extremely cheap reward offered by the Samira Business Group, but it made many of the horny students' blood boil. Exchanging one's own life for a weapon and then using that weapon to sacrifice one's life for others? Zhang Tie snorted disdainfully at such a reward. Zhang Tie felt that such an exchange was an insult to his intelligence. However, some of the horny students were so excited by this reward that they couldn't be happier. As a result, Zhang Tie became speechless. Perhaps those horny students were still fantasizing that if they performed well, they could be recommended by the Samira Business Group and become Master Abyan's assistant or apprentice. Becoming an assistant or apprentice of a pharmacist was a great opportunity for them to reach the sky in a single bound. Many years ago, someone in the Seventh National Male Middle School had performed the same scene, which had become a legend in the school. Who didn't want to be the second Li Shizhen? However, these words were spoken by that guy called Samira. Although Zhang Tie treated the words of that guy in the silk hat as bullsh * t, he still couldn't stop people from believing them. Those guys didn't understand that even if Samira's words were true, only Burwick would be able to obtain this opportunity. After a war, the corpses of soldiers would pile up like mountains, while the good names of the victorious generals would be spread everywhere. This was the reality!

In Zhang Tie's opinion, this expedition was a trap, a trap based on the weakness of human nature. It was a huge pit dug by trust and greed. It was the most common one among all the traps. Anyone with discerning eyes would know it at the sight of it. However, if someone wanted to jump into it, Zhang Tie could do nothing about it. Zhang Tie felt that he had already done what he should do. As for what others wanted to do, it was their business. He had no obligation to sacrifice himself for others.

"Except for yourself, nobody else can be responsible for your life! "Horny students, I hope that when you come back, you can truly understand the meaning of the school motto — — Welcome to the Age of Black Iron. After staying at school for three years, it seems that you still haven't fully understood the words at the school gate. Just like what Donder said, in this age, the blackest and toughest thing is actually the human heart," Zhang Tie muttered inside. "That's right.

… …

At the end of the swearing in ceremony, Burwick, who was sometimes smiling and sometimes impassioned, stood on the temporary platform. He looked back several times, but none of the teachers of the Temporary Supervision Committee came out. They didn't even stand on the wall of the outer castle to watch the show, which made Burwick a bit disappointed.

"Don't be disappointed. A recommendation from a school is not more valuable than letting Master Abyan know your name …" Seeming to have seen through the disappointment in Burwick's eyes, Samira whispered in Burwick's ear in a low voice that only Burwick could hear. "It's hard to say whether the Military Academy of the Allied Forces will exist in the future. No matter who rules Blackhot City, Master Abyan will gain absolute respect. You're smart, so you should know what I'm talking about! "

"I know what to do!" Burwick replied in a low voice.

"Good luck then. I forgot to tell you that a student called Glaze has already contacted me. He also wants to have a chance to let Master Abyan know his name. I don't know whether there are other powerful students who would like to have a chance to learn his name or not. Therefore, you have to work hard. Only the most outstanding people can get this opportunity! "Samira added fuel to the fire.

"I will try my best!" Hearing Samira's words, Burwick's smile slightly froze. He then saw Zhang Tie, who was inconspicuous in the crowd in the distance. Although Zhang Tie was inconspicuous, the mining basket on his back was very conspicuous. At the sight of Zhang Tie, Burwick's eyes flickered. With a smile on his face, he said to Samira, "Oh, I forgot to tell you. Do you remember that guy who made trouble for you in the crowd that day? He's called Zhang Tie. He's the one with black hair and carrying a mining basket at our three o 'clock. I heard that he's already a LV 1 warrior. Captain Kerlin and Zerom seem to appreciate him very much! "

The corner of Samira's eyes twitched. Even now, Samira could still feel that there were people pointing at his eyes and whispering to him. Their mouths were filled with words like "poisonous snake's head" and "triangular eyes". Samira stealthily glanced at Zhang Tie in the distance as he forced a smile on his thin horse-like face. "Fine, I know what to do!"

"The faster we cooperate!"

"The faster we cooperate!"

… …

After the swearing in ceremony, Burwick led his people and left the small square of Wild Wolf Castle. Finally, the noisy square became a bit quieter. The moment Burwick left, the Temporary Supervision Committee announced that there would be a bonfire party in the small square in the evening. According to the notice, there would be singing and dancing performances by female students, causing many horny students to clamor. Not knowing why, at the sight of the notice, Zhang Tie seemed to understand the intentions of the teachers of the Temporary Supervision Committee. It seemed that the teachers didn't want their students to take risks in the Crescent Prairie.

The square was in an uproar. After reading the notice, everyone started to talk about it. Seeing that there was nothing interesting to see, Zhang Tie also prepared to leave. However, the moment he was about to leave, a person walked over from the noisy crowd and brushed against Zhang Tie's shoulder. After his spiritual energy had increased by seven times, Zhang Tie's senses were very sharp. The moment he brushed against that person, he felt that there seemed to be something extra in his mining basket. If it was an ordinary person who carried such a heavy mining basket with pickaxes inside, he would never be able to notice that there was something extra in his mining basket.

"Motherf * cker, how could someone be so bored as to play a childish game? Seeing me carrying a mining basket, he opened the lid and threw something inside. I will not play this game of stuffing rubbish into other people's hats when I was eight years old." The moment Zhang Tie turned around to see who that boring bastard was, he suddenly heard someone shouting in an earth-shattering voice from a few steps behind him.

"Wallet, where's my wallet? It was here a moment ago, but now it's gone?"

"Thief, it must be a thief..."

**! It took Zhang Tie less than 0.1 second to react. Sh * t, I've been set up. Motherf * cker, these b * stards want to catch me red-handed. With the stuff in my basket, even if I had a hundred mouths, I wouldn't be able to explain myself. Even if the yellow mud fell into my pants, it would still be sh * t. Once I'm caught by these guys, I'll be screwed. No, I have to leave this place first. Only then can I turn the tables...

In a split second, Zhang Tie's talent of escaping burst out once again. He didn't even turn around. Almost at the same time when he heard that shout, he had darted out like a cheetah and ran towards the foot of the mountain at his utmost speed...

The person who had been shouting at the top of his lungs felt proud of having attracted the attention of the surrounding people. The good show was about to start, but when he raised his head, he found that the brat had disappeared. The other people who had been arranged to catch Zhang Tie red-handed were also dumbfounded. Where was that brat? Why did he run away? Weren't they supposed to watch the show and catch him red-handed? This was not how the show was supposed to be played. This was not scientific!

"Wallet, wallet..." The person's shout turned into a miserable shriek. Finally, someone realized that Zhang Tie had already run over 100 m away and was about to run down the mountain.

"That brat is the thief. Hurry up, catch the thief..." The square was in an uproar as a large group of people chased after Zhang Tie...

In the distance, the corner of Samira's eyes twitched. Even he had not imagined that this well-arranged show would turn out to be like this. Normal people's first reaction was that if they were not a thief, wouldn't they be curious enough to turn around and take a look at what was happening? Why did that brat run even faster than a rabbit the moment he heard this? Was this a normal reaction? What kind of freak was that brat?
