Chapter 315 A Tempting Opportunity

"Let\'s set off."

A few days after the meeting back at the Heavenly Furnace, a relatively large group of members left Mount Heaven in one go, the four newest Scarlet Sky Warriors standing at their head!

Scarlet Sky Warriors had the authority to move around such numbers, but the quality of these numbers was exceptionally high. After surviving the hellhole they were thrown into alongside such monstrous geniuses, it was only right that those who managed to graduate were the finest of members.

However, despite the fact that such members had already been dispersed into their teams and squads, Leo practically convened each and every graduate from the same generation using permission from one of the four pillars!

Even then, not all those who joined the meeting accepted Leo\'s sudden offer. Most of them had their own teams and plans that they were preparing for, but even those who didn\'t particularly have anything to do didn\'t want to bet everything on the four star students.

Their strength couldn\'t be underestimated as newly promoted Scarlet Sky Warriors and the same could be said about their talent, but did that speak out for their strategic choices? Just because the four of them would join up simply wasn\'t enough of a guarantee…

? ??? ? ? ???? In the first place, wasn\'t it because they weren\'t confident of achieving that much on their own that they reached out to them? In a place like the Heavenly Strength Society, inviting old classmates over for a mission to share some credit was a common occurrence. Besides, the four strongest were bound to steal most of the limelight.

"Jang hyung, are you sure about this? There is still time for us to go back now."

Fortunately, things went according to Leo\'s calculation and the number of those who left wasn\'t that high. In the end, over 50 Martial Artists who were at least of the 1st rate stage chose to join them on their march!

Unlike what one would think, not everyone was after credit or fame, for talented people who had persisted this long, most of them wanted an opportunity to fight strong opponents or go for a change of pace.

Under the threat of constant cracks, more powerful opponents were everywhere, but who was insane enough to go out and clash with the strong while disregarding the limit of their ability. The most optimal solution for a situation like this was to go out under a senior\'s guidance!

"Jo! We already discussed this together before, didn\'t you say you trust me enough to follow me everywhere? Or are you getting cold feet after everything we have gone through?"

Not everyone had the top seedlings\' opportunity to go out under the supervision of the four pillars, nor did other seniors bother themselves with taking care of their budding juniors! Even in the teams that had been following for years, they were still treated as the greenhorns due to their lack of age and experience…

"This is our only chance to experience a battle of a higher level! The four of them aren\'t capable of protecting everyone, but they would at least shield off the highest-level threats. If things went well, we can declare independence and create a squad of our own!"

The limited interactions they had with their classmates weren\'t enough for them to trust Leo and the others, but they could wholeheartedly trust their strength! In their search for evenly matched opponents, there was always the fear of a stronger combatant on the other side, but Leo, Yeon, Sohee, and Yong gave them the chance to skip that hurdle!

Let alone the fact that progress was everyone\'s number one goal, in times like these when a few sects and families fell under the monsters\' threat, no one could be satisfied with their stagnant threat. In short, those that chose to follow Leo were basically risking their lives now so they wouldn\'t have to completely give them up in the future, choosing the lesser of the two evils.

\'Let\'s just hope that their information is correct.\'

The so-called Four Heavenly Beasts had promised them a very engaging battle, but they were cooped up in Mount Heaven just like them, making their promise hard to believe…

"Alright, we will take a brief rest. You can send someone to reconfirm the situation."

Having taken that into consideration, Leo didn\'t even plan to use his guts or claim that he obtained his new destination from an information broker prior to this. To begin with, he didn\'t even mention the location they were heading towards as he himself didn\'t \'know\' of it.

"I understand, Baekho hyung. Thanks for considering our worries."

Instead, he planned to directly give the chosen leader of the group the chance to grab that piece of information himself!

\'Just in case.\'

He could have sent someone from his brothers, but Jang-Do, the recognized leader who was most sociable with the other graduates even after their separation decided to personally go for it out of respect.

Although they didn\'t rest at the City of Unnam, the little branch map that Leo received when he dealt with Shadow Star had finally come in handy. To begin with, the deal he made with them was something he decided on after plenty of consideration. Rather than just trouble Geochin for a bit or obtain some momentary benefit, he wished to make use of them for the sake of an easy future.

"A Lukewarm Yang, please."

According to the region, a new code would be applied to keep things on a low scale. Leo didn\'t go with him so as to prove that this wasn\'t a play, but Jang-Do made sure to follow the instructions after gulping down the disgusting durian juice, arriving in front of the branch\'s dealer.

"Are you here to-"

"Excuse me, someone who goes by the name of Saja Dokja has sent me over. He told me to hand you this and ask for a suitable \'target\'."

"... Give me a second."

This time, Geochin\'s cheat was no longer needed. After all, Leo\'s persona had already become the VIP!
