Chapter 754: Chapter 757 Are You Still Single?

Before the iron gate, people gradually returned.

However, those who returned were mostly bruised and swollen, supporting each other in twos and threes.

After their return, upon seeing the Fierce Tiger and Persian Gulf teams, they were all extremely angry.

"There’s no banner."

"Our banner was stolen."

"It was them!"

The returnees pointed at Du Yun and Jenny, filled with righteous indignation.

"The actions of the Fierce Tiger and Persian Gulf Team are outrageous. The banners we painstakingly found were outright robbed by them. And they even resorted to violence!"

A furious man expressed his dissatisfaction to the chief judge, "Referee, is this how you supervise? This is completely unfair! The people from Fierce Tiger and Persian Gulf teamed up with two others to rob and beat us. One of them even had a gun and threatened us with it! These criminals shouldn’t be allowed to compete at all. Referee, you must punish them!"

Another woman with bruises on her face also stood up and said, "Exactly, they’re not competitors; they’re simply bandits!"

As more people returned, one after another complained to the chief judge about the maliciousness of Fierce Tiger and Persian Gulf.

Most of them had their banners stolen.

The chief judge, surrounded by these people, appeared troubled.

"Everyone, be quiet!"

When the chief judge felt troubled, Hu Zhengwei roared, making everyone startle.

Hu Zhengwei stood out from the crowd, his expression serious, and said coldly, "The rules do not prohibit the snatching of another team’s banner. Even if Fierce Tiger and Persian Gulf Team took your banners, where is the violation?"

"Hmph, this round is called the Intelligence Stealing Match, did you really think it was just about finding items? Forming alliances, guarding against others’ raids, this is also a test for you, understand? They know how to form alliances; why don’t you?

Hu Zhengwei spoke righteously, his gaze sweeping over those who were causing a commotion, instantly silencing them.

The first man to speak questioned, "What about them having guns? Could it be that the inspectors didn’t check properly?"

"Hmph, that European Mercenary Team has guns; did you clearly see whether the guns were theirs or if it belonged to the European Mercenary Team? Inspectors are impartial; there is no cheating. But entering Jungle Island, didn’t you know to find weapons yourself? Did you only naively search for banners and undercover maps for treasure? If that’s all you did, you don’t deserve to be mercenaries!"

Hu Zhengwei switched to lecture mode, educating those people.

Seeing Hu Zhengwei’s displeased expression, the captains of the mercenary teams signaled with their eyes to let their people stop talking and return to their teams.

If this argument continued, offending Skull would make it difficult to survive in the Asian Mercenary World.

After Hu Zhengwei angrily spoke out, the crowd fell silent immediately.

The port quieted down again; of the sixteen people, fourteen had returned, leaving only the Dahe Mercenary Team and the Korea Mercenary Team.

And out of the sixteen banners, nine had appeared, leaving seven unaccounted for.

So, Hu Zhengwei had no reason to be angry.

If all seven banners were with Dahe Mercenary Team, it would still be manageable, but if even one was in the hands of the Korea Mercenary Team, it would be over!

Fierce Tiger Team would be disqualified, unable to be labelled as a Three-star Mercenary Team, and could only be considered a Two-star Mercenary Team.

This way, in the presidential council, only Persian Gulf would be considered Skull’s people, without absolute authority!

Hu Zhengwei’s expression was incredibly grim; he now realized that the latter scenario was highly likely, basically, he had botched this ranking competition as well.

After waiting for more than ten minutes in the howling sea breeze, the member of the Korea Mercenary Team returned.

"Despicable, shameless!"

Reaching the iron gate, the man cursed at Jenny twice before pulling out a banner and presenting it before the referee.

He actually had a banner!

Lei Zhenhu and Lambosky were instantly dumbfounded.

Du Yun and Jenny were also stunned.

Hadn’t they already taken all his banners? How did he still have one?

After registering with the chief referee, the Korean man, looking unexpectedly gentle, walked up to Du Yun and bowed graciously. "Thank you. If it weren’t for your help, I would have been finished. This terrible woman, so cruel. I am really grateful to you!"

After he spoke, he bowed to Du Yun again.

Du Yun looked haggard and was utterly baffled by that man from the Korea Mercenary Team named Che Taixian.

Thank me?

Jenny and I had planned to team up to defeat you and take your banner. How can you thank me?

"Du Yun! What’s going on? You, you’re playing both sides?!"

Seeing that scene, Lei Zhenhu immediately erupted in rage, walked up to Du Yun, and glared at her with fury.

"Captain, I really don’t know what’s going on..." Du Yun said, both embarrassed and aggrieved.

"Don’t you remember? You deliberately let me escape and gave me a note along with a banner. Don’t you know that?"

Seeing Du Yun’s expression, Che Taixian looked equally puzzled and took out a note with the Chinese characters "Hide, they are going to deal with you" written on it.

"This ... this is not my handwriting..."

Seeing the words on the note in Che Taixian’s hand, Du Yun’s face turned red with anger.

She had been severely scolded by Lei Zhenhu over this matter, and now, to make matters worse, he was coming over to thank her! What was he thinking!

"He mistook someone else for her. The Du Yun at that time was actually War Dragon’s enchantress in disguise," the mercenary from Fierce Tiger Team, who had benevolently given Lin Zitong two banners, spitefully said while staring at the distant Lin Zitong.

Lei Zhenhu instantly realized what had happened, clenched his teeth with anger, and barked at Che Taixian, "Get lost, as far away as you can!"

"This..."

Che Taixian was slow to catch on, but his captain, Li Chengdong, understood and came over, pulling Che Taixian to Lin Zitong’s side, saying, "The one who wrote you the note was her; the one who let you go was also her. If you want to be thankful, don’t thank the people from Fierce Tiger, thank the people from War Dragon instead."

Che Taixian looked up and saw the beautiful and charming Lin Zitong, his face immediately flushing.

"Was it you who helped me..."

Che Taixian lowered his head and asked.

Lin Zitong nodded, "The points from Fierce Tiger were almost equal to yours, I guessed they would make a move on you too, so while I was dealing with them, I took the opportunity to save you. You don’t need to thank me."

"No, I must thank you."

Che Taixian took a deep breath, his face reddening as he gathered the courage to look at Lin Zitong:

"Miss Lin Zitong, not only is your Kung Fu formidable, but you are also kind-hearted, I must thank you ... I, I’m a bit nervous, I... I want to ask ... Miss Lin Zitong, do you happen to be single?"
