They were instantly confused.
Three people?
Weren't there supposed to be only two?
Did they find another person on their way?!
Three against three was just nice!
The hunter did not move.
He did not know that Lightning and Feng Yi were there.
He thought that he was facing three other people by himself.
Since he had found three of them, he could not let any of them get away!
Even though they were hunters, they were training with the freshmen as well. They had more weapons than the freshmen but they had the same amount of food supplies as the freshmen.
They were considered wasting their energy if they were not able to find any of them as well.
They had to go through the woods to eliminate all the freshmen that they could locate with their trackers.
And if they could not finish their task in three days, they would have greatly intensified training waiting for them.
