Chapter 251: Chapter 251: Ghost Squad

Xiao Zhan nodded in agreement.

He had now graduated, and all future developments could only rely on himself; no one could continue to guide him anymore.

And he was already bound to the Ye Family, so naturally, he had to integrate into the Ye Family.

"Okay, if there’s nothing else, you all prepare a bit. I’ve already notified the lower ranks. Tomorrow... the day after tomorrow, you guys can go report by yourselves."

Ye Wudi understood these young ones, Xiao Zhan and the others.

Having stayed in the Death Secret Realm for half a year, they had just come out today and definitely needed some good time together, so he gave them an extra day of rest.

Xiao Zhan and Ye Youlong both felt a bit awkward upon hearing this.

If you’re going to say it, just say it properly. Why suddenly change your words halfway? Are you afraid others won’t understand?

Luckily, they had finished eating and there weren’t many people around, otherwise it would be extremely embarrassing.

But Xiao Zhan was somewhat dissatisfied.

Just one day, who are you looking down on?

Am I that weak?

...

After resting for a day.

Xiao Zhan arrived at the military camp.

He briefly got to know about the position arranged for him by Ye Wudi, which was the captain of a special combat team. Xiao Zhan needed to lead his team members to complete some complex and special tasks.

This role was similar to his time in the Special Service Bureau.

It was essentially a return to his old profession.

The name of the team was the Ghost Special Team. When Xiao Zhan arrived at the base, all members of the Ghost Team were already assembled and waiting for him.

Xiao Zhan sized them up, and they sized up both Xiao Zhan and Ye Youlong.

Apart from Xiao Zhan and another, the whole team consisted of ten people, all not very old, around thirty years, but obviously, they were battle-hardened and experienced individuals.

Standing in front of Xiao Zhan, each of them stood tall and firm, with stern faces, radiating the vigor of soldiers.

But Xiao Zhan seemed to see a hidden sorrow on their faces.

"The entire Ghost Team is assembled, deputy captain Meng Fei reporting to you, please instruct, Captain!"

Standing at the forefront of the team, a muscular man with a buzz cut saluted Xiao Zhan.

Xiao Zhan saluted back.

Then he came in front of the team, introduced himself, "Hello everyone, I’m Xiao Zhan, and beside me is my Artifact Spirit, Ye Youlong."

A simple introduction, nothing much to elaborate on.

After all, Xiao Zhan and Ye Youlong’s reputation was well-known across the entire North Guard Army.

"Everyone, welcome the new captain."

Meng Fei led the applause, followed by the other team members.

Xiao Zhan nodded, "If there’s nothing else, you are dismissed."

After saying that, he directly headed to his room.

That’s how special combat teams are, when there’s nothing much happening, it’s all free time, you can do whatever you want, no one will manage you.

As Xiao Zhan and Ye Youlong’s figures disappeared from the crowd’s view, the team members relaxed and started discussing among themselves.

"I thought someone else would be appointed as our captain, didn’t expect it to be these two."

"Yeah, shouldn’t they be in the main force? How come they were assigned here?"

"Who knows? But having them as our captains is also good, not to mention anything else, I respect their strength."

Besides deputy captain Meng Fei, the strength of these people was all at the Third-Grade Spirit Master realm.

Therefore, Xiao Zhan’s Fourth-Grade Spirit Master strength could easily win them over.

But there were one or two veterans who weren’t optimistic about Xiao Zhan, "Talking about talent and strength, I have no objections, but making him a captain right away, doesn’t it seem a bit unreliable?"

This remark made everyone ponder.

Indeed, while Xiao Zhan could defeat everyone present in terms of strength,

the captain’s role isn’t just about strength; it’s more about leadership. A good captain can lead a team to demonstrate exceptional combat effectiveness, even if their own strength is relatively weaker.

Xiao Zhan was still very young; his sudden appointment as captain made them doubtful.

"Alright, stop thinking about this. Since he has been assigned, what we need to do is to cooperate with him as much as possible. Beyond that, thinking too much is useless."

One team member said.

With his words, the team gradually dispersed.

He was right, instead of worrying whether Xiao Zhan was qualified to be captain, it was better to spend the time to practice and improve their own strength on the battlefield to protect their lives.

After Xiao Zhan entered his room, having nothing else to do, he and Ye Youlong started practicing.

Now his focus in practice wasn’t just the growth of Spirit Manipulation Energy.

Meanwhile, he was also researching how to compress all his power at once and then release it explosively.

Because in the previous battle with the man in the black robe, Xiao Zhan used this move in an emergency. After the battle, he thought it over and found this move to be very powerful.

If he could master it proficiently, then it could become his trump card.

He found this move was a bit similar to burning one’s origin; both involve squeezing one’s energy to have multiple times the power in a short time.

However, burning one’s origin comes at the cost of one’s life, it can only be used once, and once it’s used, it’s over.

While this move only consumes Spirit Manipulation Energy, and at most causes some damage to the meridians, it can be used repeatedly. And this type of damage to the meridians, Xiao Zhan could fully avoid with careful control.

The most crucial aspect is that the outcomes presented by these two methods are quite similar, in terms of the explosive power at that moment, they are almost equal.

Just that burning one’s origin lasts a bit longer, while that kind of explosion is almost instantaneous.

Xiao Zhan is now constantly researching this move.

He wants to use this move as his trump card.

And after careful research and verification, he discovered that currently, only he could accomplish this, others absolutely couldn’t.

The reason is that his meridians are sufficiently strong!

The body transformations brought by various opportunities allowed his body to become an extremely powerful container, almost capable of handling any violent method of energy operation.

But other people, lacking Xiao Zhan’s opportunities, cannot do the same.

Even if they also discovered this method of using Spirit Manipulation Energy, they wouldn’t be able to expel all their internal energy at one go like Xiao Zhan.

What they could do, at most, is to split their internal energy into several times.

And once the energy is divided, the power naturally decreases significantly.

Glancing at Ye Youlong, both were ready and immediately began to enter the practice mode.

This move didn’t have any special tricks, just straightforward compression and release; what Xiao Zhan and Ye Youlong needed to do was to make these two processes faster.

To shorten it to meet combat requirements.

And to achieve this standard, it is nothing but constant practice.

There are no other shortcuts.
