"Then I'll be the first one to take the bait," He Yi said as he stood up.
"Don't stand up. Just sit down and talk. There's no distinction between you and me in Polar night." The chief instructor waved his hand.
"Yes." He Yi cupped his fists respectfully, then turned to everyone and said with a smile, "Everyone, my name is He Yi. I'm He Yi, Yi as in leisure. I'm from City 0574 in Zone 1 of the Subcontinent. To be honest, the He family is a small family in the south. I'm the only son of the direct line of descent. I'm here on Polar night to gather enough player qualifications to go to university. My family's elders are spread across many forces and have good connections. My main business is in the construction industry. You can come to me if you need anything! "
So, he was from a merchant's family. However, Li Xiang didn't think that a simple merchant's family could occupy the position of a family in a numbered city.
"Construction industry? As far as I know, the He family is the most powerful family in City 0574. You have the final say in any industry. " Baimiya leisurely stirred her black tea and mercilessly exposed, "As for the so-called construction industry, it's mainly because you control most of it."
Baimiya had clearly exposed a side of him that others didn't know about. He Yi smiled awkwardly and didn't say anything.
"The little girl is right. Everyone else should be careful. Don't hide your identity when you introduce yourselves. There's no distinction between you and me in Polar night." The chief instructor's face was expressionless, but he had said "there's no distinction between you and me" many times. Li Xiang paid special attention.
"Yes, sir," everyone answered in unison.
The next one to speak was Ai Yakumo.
"I'm Ai Yakumo from Yin Tiger Group. I'm from the Yakumo family and I have three daughters. I'm sure everyone knows about the Yakumo family, so I won't introduce myself. I'm here on Polar night for the same purpose as He Yi. " Compared to her temper at the beginning, Ai Yakumo was now much more mature and steady. He wondered what she had gone through during her days of training with the Kuang Tie.
"Li Weilan."
"Yu Bai."
Next up were the two members of the Rabbit Group. This was the only group that Li Xiang did not know, yet they were able to win at the same time. It was a boy and a girl. The girl named Li Weilan looked delicate and pretty. Her long hair draped over her shoulders, and she looked very cold. The boy named Yu Bai also had an otherworldly look.
Their introductions were very simple. Both of them were born in the middle class. Their parents had decent jobs, but it had nothing to do with the players. They were considered influential figures in their respective cities.
What was worth noting was that the two of them came from the same high school and seemed to have known each other since they were young. Furthermore, neither of them had awakened their player potential in the Unified Recruitment Exam, which was why they had joined forces to come to the Polar night.
Now, they had graduated from the Polar night as members of the same group. This luck made everyone envious, especially Li Xiang, who had a similar experience.
If Fei Yujing had not awakened her Magician potential, but had instead awakened her Death Awakening like him, would the two of them have been able to make it this far?
Just thinking about it made him feel that it was terribly difficult. When he looked at Li Weilan and Yu Bai again, his eyes became more serious.
Before this, he only thought that the Kuang Tie was a threat in Polar night. Now, it seemed that every Polar night graduate was not simple.
It was no wonder that even Yu Yi, who had mediocre potential, could fight his way out of a group of people. He had touched the threshold of Magician earlier than many geniuses in the same batch. Polar night was truly a place to sharpen people.
Chen Fan and Ji Yanqing, who were introduced later, also caused many people to exclaim in surprise. No one would have thought that Chen Fan's sister was a Polar night graduate and had died in the Player Exam. Ji Yanqing was even more terrifying. Her entire family had been wiped out by the tarot cards.
The ancient martial arts family, the Ji Family, was also a Black Iron organization. This meant that there was at least one player in charge. Even so, they still could not stop the tarot cards. This made the few people who had faced the tarot cards feel uneasy.
Ji Yanqing's face had never been so ugly when she spoke of her blood feud in front of everyone. Her body was trembling violently, and the smile on her face had disappeared.
After she finished speaking, Priest Cantrey took her to the side for healing.
Everyone was silent.
"Next," the chief instructor said in a deep voice.
Li Xiang took a deep breath. He was about to speak when Ming Xu, who was next to him, spoke first.
Her voice was indifferent and she said very little. However, she still revealed the most important information.
She was the daughter of the main family of Dong Ling. Her mother was the youngest daughter of the King of Dong Ling. Her father was from the Subcontinent District. He had been trained to be an assassin since he was a child and had killed countless people.
She was here purely because of her teacher's order.
She was from the main family of Dong Ling!
Anyone with a little bit of experience would know what this meant.
She was from the main family of the current king. In other words, one of the five Sovereigns, one of the five most powerful players in the seven continents, the King of Dong Ling, was her biological grandfather!
That was a very strong background.
Baimiya was stunned. She had thought about Ming Xu's extraordinary background, but she had never thought that she was from the main family!
The difference between the main family and the branch family was only a single word. In the Bai Family, she had long felt this insurmountable gap. Not to mention the first in the line of succession of the Bai Family, the third in line, Bai Lihu, was the goal she had always wanted to surpass since she was young.
The gap between the main family and the branch family was huge in terms of talent, resources, and everything else. It was despairing.
When it was Li Xiang's turn, everyone was still immersed in Ming Xu's story. They were shocked again when Li Xiang told them that Bai Xintong, who was in the limelight, was his biological sister.
The chief instructor's eyes became more profound.
"No wonder I felt uncomfortable the first time I saw you. That's why, you're from the Bai family." The chief instructor burst into laughter. Li Xiang recalled the day when he arrived at the Polar night training camp. He glanced at the trainees and saw a meaningful smile on Li Xiang's face.
Back then, Lu Xuan thought that his special ability had been exposed.
So, he had sensed the Bai family's bloodline?
"I don't know what's going on. In short, the mark is still there, so it shouldn't be wrong. My purpose in coming to Polar night is to obtain the player's qualifications and enter a good university. One day, I can bring my sister back. "Li Xiang smiled faintly.
"This is not a simple goal. Work hard. As for your Bai family's bloodline, that's your family background. We don't know, and we won't ask." The chief instructor smiled and nodded. His eyes were full of praise.
Baimiya and Atsushi Amakusa, who were the last to speak, did not say much. Baimiya, who was the fourth branch family of the Bai family, was very famous in their circle of aristocratic family members. They could easily find out a lot about her. Atsushi Amakusa, on the other hand, kept a relatively low profile.
He came from an ordinary background and had been sold to the Yakumo family. He was now Ai Yakumo's servant in a master-servant relationship.
After a brief introduction, everyone had a clearer understanding of each person's information. In fact, there were some secrets that they did not particularly want to know.
For example, Ji Yanqing's blood feud and Li Xiang's identity. Knowing these would only satisfy their curiosity for a moment. In the future, there might be endless troubles. They did not know the significance of the chief instructor's arrangement.
"Alright, Cantrey, it's your turn." The chief instructor looked at Priest Cantrey who was still comforting Ji Yanqing.
Priest Cantrey stood up and bowed slightly to them. He also briefly introduced himself. He was the only priest and psychological counselor in Polar night. He did not have any part-time jobs outside and did not belong to any other forces. Player, guardian profession changed to healer.
In the future, the people of Polar Night would contact him regarding medical matters.
"Then, it's my turn." The chief instructor drank all the liquor in his glass in one gulp. He suddenly stood up and stood at attention. "Polar night's chief instructor, deputy commander of the southern army, lieutenant general, and the future teacher of all graduates!"
Lieutenant general!
The rank of a general in the military was very special. They had the right to mobilize and command in any city or continent. There was a limit to the total number of generals. Only one general could be replaced by a brigadier general.
At present, there were more than a hundred brigadier generals in District 1 of the subcontinent alone. There were probably more than four or five thousand brigadier generals in the entire seven continents. However, the positions had to be vacated one by one. It was clear that the competition was fierce.
It was also clear that the true rank of a general was very high.
After entering this rank, every promotion was very difficult. It had to be tested for performance, strength, qualifications, and so on. Even the famous third uncle of the Bai family, Bai Zhun, had only reached the rank of a general.
"Everyone, you can now open the black box in front of you. You can listen to me while you look inside." The chief instructor poured himself another glass of liquor. "Polar night, in the eyes of outsiders, is a small training camp that is funded and controlled by countless large forces. It specializes in training some so-called 'unqualified' young people to have the qualifications of players. Then, it is for those forces to choose."
Li Xiang opened the black box. The layout inside was very exquisite. The documents were placed on one side, and the items were on the other. The entire interior was like a maze. At first glance, it was obvious that it was a well-designed mechanical storage device.
On the outside of the black box, their group marks and their respective names were engraved.
In other words, this was a mechanical box that was exclusive to each of them.
"Of course, this is for those trainees who have not been qualified to graduate from Polar night. I don't know if any of you have signed any contracts with some small forces, or if you have accepted their invitation before, but this is not important. As long as you graduate from the second phase of training, Polar night will pay all the liquidated damages for you. "The chief instructor smiled.
Li Weilan, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke. Her voice was a little neutral, but it sounded very comfortable.
She and Yu Bai had signed a contract with the Hunters. As mentioned before, although they came from middle-class families, once they stepped on the path of players, their family's wealth was not enough to support them. They had to join a certain force to obtain enough resources.
When they were in the second training camp, they were not considered outstanding. Neither of them had received a better invitation.
"Haha, you are still too young. Do you really think the Hunters can take down my Polar night graduates?" The chief instructor laughed and looked at Li Weilan. "Little girl, listen well. I, the Polar night graduates, will not join that kind of trashy force. They invited you back then to make a bet. If you fail, even if you have some talent, you can still join them. If you succeed, they will profit even more. Because Polar night will spend a lot of money to buy you back, understand? "
"In other words, these forces all understand the special rules of Polar night. They will not be able to get the Polar night graduates, but they will have the corresponding compensation — if the trainee is discerning enough to accept their invitation." Li Xiang suddenly understood. No wonder all the forces dared to send him an invitation. If he chose, they could still get the liquidated damages from Polar night even if they could not take it down. Why not?
"Smart, but their number of invitations is limited. You have to choose carefully. This is a big gamble. This is the cruel world." The chief instructor nodded. "Now you understand. Because we, Extreme Night, are not a puppet training camp controlled by someone else, but a truly powerful force! But we only accept those who can graduate from the training. "
"No matter where they come from, what their identity is, or what their talent is, Polar night does not distinguish between you and me."
