When Yu Tu and Lu Fei approached, Emily was already standing and she looked at LI Jun and asked, "What do you think?"
"It's best to find out who knows more about animals to give us some idea of what we are facing. On second thought, that idea has little value at this stage. Our main goal should be to reduce the number of targets as much as possible. Considering we are eight, we could move in teams of two, but that also means trouble." He stood up with the stick he was holding in his hands.
"I suggest we take a path with vegetation cover. Even though dangerous, it would at least allow us to be able to survive much easier, and for the issue about separation, let's consider it only if we fail to accomplish the plan we have at the moment." Lu Fei and Tao Wei were surprisingly very cooperative with their idea.
But he could see that Yu Tu was smirking secretly, obviously this guy was spreading rumors about him.
But he did not care, what was being said was probably not a big deal. He also was not of the idea of splitting at the moment, his physique was too weak compared to someone like Lu Fei.
Caressing the small stick in his arms, he looked in the direction he speculated the monster took while thinking about how to survive apart from splitting.
"It seems that self-preservation is human nature! After all, I only have memories and an Intelligence level of 55. This is not considered enough to change my entire being. When we leave this place it is important to find ways to temper my will. From what Emily said, it is difficult for anyone without a strong will to accomplish much in the path of evolution. " He was thinking of this as he observed Lu Fei, this guy was not as nervous as everyone else.
He seemed more vigilant, but that was it.
"Why do I have a feeling the immortal path is the route of cowards." He thought to himself but was not affected in the slightest.
"How about we think of ways to lure it out, perhaps it is not as dangerous as we all think!" Lu Fei finally spoke.
Hearing these words, Li Jun who had just praised this guy in his head felt his knees were weak and he sat down directly.
One could even faintly feel the aura of disappointment oozing from all around him."I was wrong. This group is made up of problem children!".
This time he did not even think twice anymore. The actions of this group might get them killed.
******
Up in the void two figures were observing everything and no one had even noticed their presence, including the powerhouses that were fighting in the sky before.
one of the figures was a woman, whose bed body was about three meters tall. This did not in any way distort her sense of beauty at all. This was a strong person to be able to stand there unnoticed.
Beside her was a blonde-haired youth, but his eyes seemed to betray the age. Those eyes were like deep pools and the space around the two of them seemed to be dim. Surprisingly enough, no one else noticed this presence at all.
The woman giggled as she looked in the direction that Li Jun was in.
"That kid in Wu Tian's daughter's team is interesting!" The woman spoke with some fascination as though watching a drama.
"Oh!" The man was attracted, but could only see a young man seemingly struggling to stand up.
"What is interesting about that?" The man thought of this in his mind but did not dare say it, his attention shifted to the distance.
The woman looked at his actions and said nothing, she just shifted her gaze back. She then asked a question that surprised the man, "What did you guys suddenly decide to change the previous procedure for recruiting practitioners? I remember that in the past, we have always taken them directly to the Central library and they have a chance to select a foundational technique for the path they chose."
The man smiled like an old fox, instead of answering he asked a question, "Isn't the result the same?"
"Stop trying to gaslight me here! Even three-year-olds might not buy this bullshit your pedaling, let alone this old lady." She was not interested in his games.
Based on how she knew this council of administration, a change implemented was not easy to stop. In that case, it was important to find out why they decided to put seedlings whose potential had yet to be determined in a life-and-death crisis.
But even if she asked, it was probably hard for this man to tell him the main reason for his actions.
But that did not stop her from guessing this old Foxes plans.
"I am curious. Is this change related to the ruins discovered on the Andromeda Galaxy?" She was well-informed about some issues.
The current civilization has developed so far into space exploration, and since ideas were present with the knowledge gained from the ruins and energy sources, the path of technology has been moving fast.
The most important thing is that everyone invested heavily into space exploration and as known with enough funds anything can be done.
Resources are not lacking and mankind has even more in-depth knowledge of the universe, traversing deep space is no longer an issue.
The resources required from deep space are more important to even the strongest beings, and most of them do not take the path of immortals.
It is then understandable, for them to fund research and even send their kind into space exploration. It is also the same reason that Li Jun rarely heard of the martial path and evolution path getting involved in the issues of Earth planet.
Their hunting grounds are in deep space and the monsters on the planet, the strongest humans have no plans of exterminating them. They see them as resources for the low-level practitioners, the same is true for those that are involved in the path of evolution and Martial arts.
Martial artists probably spend most of their time in the wilderness depths, unlike immortals who prefer to play safely at the border cities.
This exercise might seem like a way to make the recruits break away from the taboos of the old.
But even so, it seemed like this would not work as they expected it for the time being.
As for the reason for mentioning the ruins in space, it was the only new thing that had come up.
"What are you thinking? Even though the old guys are crazy and most of them like to advocate for war, they would not throw this newbie who has yet to even meet the standards of entering the wilderness to train into the depths of the starry skies. The Andromeda Galaxy is not some good place, gravity alone is enough to crush those below the fourth level of evolution as for martial artists, they have to at least reach the stage of star prototype." The words of the man might not have given her the answer, but she had an idea of what was going on.
Tnewbornorn calves were not afraid of the world, which was a common thing. This time the older generation wanted them to experience real suffering and despair, especially for those who thought they could become heroes or gain massive benefits to cut down their ego.
She did not believe it would work, more importantly, the actions of the individuals in the teams she was observing were too unrestrained.
They probably thought the wilderness was the same as within the Sector walls. She could even not help but turn her attention to what was happening on the team Emily was on.
It seemed like she knew Emily's father, this alone meant he was a strong man.

"Hi! I am tired, how about we dig our graves and bury ourselves already? Who wants to help me?" When Li Jun said this everyone distanced themselves from him, except for Emily who was finding it hard to hide her laughter.
How could she not understand what had just happened? She was clear that Li Jun was mocking that guy's idea of attracting the monsters.
She was not as ignorant as Lu Fei. She was aware of just how dangerous the attack from a monster was. Her family even informed her once that if she discovered trails of a monster unless she achieved a certain level of strength it was best to run or hide.
The choice she had was to do anything to survive, rather than going ahead to attract trouble.
Listening to the words of Lu Fei and especially the look of expectation in the eyes of everyone around her, even the three women deemed problematic along their journey.
When she heard what Li Jun was saying she just found it funny, and that is the case when everyone retreated upon hearing the words digging their graves.
In reality, trying to attract the monster was no different from doing this.
"Who wants to die? Come forward, let's just make a clean break. I have no interest in standing together with suicidal meniacs." Li Jun could not bear it and just said the words.
In the void, the woman who was watching the show could not help but start giggling.
"That kid is interesting. If he has not gone in the Immortal path I should take him as a disciple." She spoke in a joking manner to the man.
"What can you teach disciples?" The man asked with some confusion.
