Chapter 2761: Chapter 2764: Born Leader
After the first two assessments, most people were injured. Now with some time to recover, everyone sat cross-legged to meditate.
Jiang Chen sat next to Yun Tao, glanced around, and secretly handed a ring to Yun Tao, whispering, "Senior Brother, this is a Void Shift Great Array. Keep it well and don’t let others find it. Use it when necessary to save your life. It can also help you gather some people. On the battlefield, you need your own small team."
Yun Tao was slightly taken aback but quietly put away the ring.
He didn’t treat Jiang Chen with formalities, understanding that Jiang Chen was going to the Virtual Refinement Void Region and didn’t fully trust leaving the others. This Void Shift Great Array was mainly to protect himself, Jian Wuheng, Feng Qingyang, and others.
Jiang Chen secretly gave it to him, fearing someone might forcibly or coercively take the Void Shift Great Array from Yun Tao. On the battlefield, everything should be focused on victory. It’s normal for someone to take it under the pretext of winning the battle.
And Si Huang’er didn’t need to worry about that; even on the battlefield, no one would dare to covet her possessions.
The two-hour recovery time passed quickly, and everyone stood up to look at Si Wenkang and others in the sky.
"Young Jiang, the old man knows your combat strength is great and you’re clever, so you won’t face any trouble, but I still have to remind you a few things."
Hu Yiqiu walked up to Jiang Chen and said softly, "You’re not in the same position you were before. No need to be at the forefront of everything or think too much for others. No matter what happens, take care of yourself. Your life is your own. Once it’s gone, it’s gone for good!"
"Master, don’t worry. This world doesn’t require me to bear everything. I’ll help where I can and consider risks where required. I’m not foolish!"
Jiang Chen replied with a light smile.
"You’re not foolish, but I’m worried you might let grand ideals sway your thoughts. After all, you’ve been through such things. Anyway, remember this clearly for me, you mustn’t die on the battlefield, or the old man will cry for you!"
Hu Yiqiu said in a pretentious manner, but his eyes showed intense concern. He was genuinely worried that Jiang Chen might prioritize ideals over his safety.
"Master, rest assured, I understand!"
Jiang Chen nodded with a warm smile in his heart.
Buzz!
A spatial fluctuation came, and everyone looked up.
In mid-air, Si Wenkang took out a Jade Talisman and tossed it into the air, instantly forming a space vortex above.
Swish, swish, swish!
Si Wenkang, Si Wenhao, Elder Shui, and other six powerful beings exuded a strong aura, with their majestic Domain Powers surging into the floating Jade Talisman.
Boom!
The Jade Talisman shattered, and a violent spatial fluctuation appeared in the air.
"Condense!"
Si Wenkang shouted, and the six powerful beings exploded with radiant brilliance, their six Domains layered onto the violent space.
Buzz, buzz, buzz!
The kilometer-wide space gradually stabilized, forming a steady space vortex.
"Participants of the third assessment, enter the space vortex!"
Just as the space stabilized, Si Wenkang shouted out.
"Young Jiang, think more about yourself!"
Hu Yiqiu reminded, his figure flashed into the sky and into the vortex.
"Brother Jiang, see you on the Spatial Battlefield!"
"Brother Jiang, see you later!"
Tang Jie and others shouted to Jiang Chen as they flashed into the space vortex.
Jiang Chen clasped his fists towards everyone, nodding heavily.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
Figures rushed into the vortex, disappearing in an instant.
When no one else entered the vortex, a hundred platforms returned from another space. Now, over twenty thousand people remained, mostly Divine Infant Realm cultivators, with less than one-fifth being Integration Realm cultivators or higher.
This was a kind of choice, a trade-off between the opportunities within the Spatial Continent and the resources obtained from position rewards after battles.
Of course, Divine Infant Realm cultivators didn’t have the privilege of choice. They were too weak and unqualified for the Void Continent, indirectly proving that this world always respects the strong!
"Jiang Chen, come with me!"
Si Wenhao called out to Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen was slightly surprised, clasped his fists towards Yun Tao and others, flew to Si Wenhao and others, performed a salute, and then asked perplexedly, "Are we leaving now?"
"Of course, we need to rip through space and journey for a few days. Also, since you’ve given up the position reward, I’ll give you a private lesson!"
Si Wenhao spoke lightly, smiling.
Jiang Chen was slightly taken aback, feeling warm in his heart, he clasped his fists towards Si Wenhao, "Thank you, Fourth Prince."
He could understand that originally, he could wait for Si Huang’er and others to complete the position contest and then teleport together to Cross-Border City. But now, Si Wenhao wanted to take him away alone, evidently to cultivate him in some aspect. And he also vaguely guessed a bit about what that might be.
"You’re worth the special attention. Let’s go!"
Si Wenhao put his hand on Jiang Chen’s shoulder, and the two disappeared instantly.
"Crown Prince, can that kid handle it? Don’t push him too hard!"
After Si Wenhao and Jiang Chen left, Elder Feng asked Si Wenkang quietly.
"He won’t crumble. He’s experienced war, won’t collapse that easily. He certainly knows how to fight and lead troops; those aren’t the issue. His only problem is being too kind-hearted. On the battlefield, kindness can lead to hesitation in critical decisions, and the fleeting opportunity can’t be missed!"
Si Wenkang shook his head lightly, "I hope this experience helps him grow, at least to shed that unnecessary kindness and become a qualified commander!"
"I hope he understands the Crown Prince’s intentions. Otherwise, when on the Extraterritorial Battlefield, he may refuse the pressure and decline to enter the army command."
A hint of worry crossed Elder Feng’s eyes.
"He won’t. Maybe he won’t enter the army initially, but eventually, he surely will. He feels a strong responsibility and won’t ignore the army. Otherwise, even the drunkard kept reminding him to think more about himself and less about others!"
Si Wenkang smiled softly, "This guy is like a docile donkey. If you force him, he’ll go and do it well, but he might feel resentful and eventually cut ties with you. However, by silently nurturing and benefiting him, he’ll feel too embarrassed not to help out!"
"Haha, Crown Prince knows him thoroughly!"
Elder Feng laughed softly.
"That kid is smart. He might have already guessed my intention. However, he didn’t refuse his brother to take him away, meaning he’s not against it, just hasn’t figured it out yet!"
Si Wenkang smiled lightly, "Some people are born leaders!"
