"She looks very cute, but I don't know how strong she is."

"The level of hunters from Country H?"

The voices of his companions' discussions rose and fell in his ears, but he did not hear them.

Goto Ryuji was not interested in the latter mentioned by his assistant.

Looking at Xiadie's figure, he only felt a huge pressure coming continuously. The oppressive feeling filled with an unknown aura was something he had not felt for a long time.

Could it be that... this girl is on the same level as them?

The images of those national power-level hunters emerged in Goto Ryuji's mind.

Realizing that someone was looking at her for too long, Xiadie looked at the owner of the gaze in confusion.

Seeing her looking at him, Goto Ryuji realized that he had stayed on her gaze for too long. He nodded politely with a serious face, then looked away.

"What are her abilities? Is she also a part of this operation?"

Goto Ryuji looked at his assistant again.

"According to investigations, Xiadie's ability is related to death. Touching or even getting too close to her will result in death due to her ability. Therefore, she has never been around crowded places and has never joined any guild."

The assistant didn't know why Goto Ryuji, the strongest hunter in Country R, ​​suddenly cared so much about a newcomer, but he still explained diligently: "According to the intelligence, she is also a member of this attack team."

"Ability related to death?"

Not only Goto Ryuji, everyone was curious about this statement.

"It sounds a bit weird."

"After all, she's not a hunter from Country H, so it's normal for her skills to be different."

They spoke Japanese, but there were people in this situation who could understand Japanese. Their repeated disparaging remarks about Country H naturally aroused the dissatisfaction of the people of Country H.

"Hey, aren't you guys going a bit too far?"

While people below were having a conversation, those above were certainly not idle either.

After Choi Jung-in gave her a detailed introduction to the hunters in Country R and also heard about Country Z's unique hunter system, Xiadie finally had a clear understanding of the situations in other countries. Although her underworld included not only Country H but the entire world, she had never paid much attention to these things, and Cheng Xiaoyu would not specifically bring them up to talk to her.

After all, these are things that both of them can understand if they are interested, and it doesn’t matter if they don’t understand them.

Just as Xiadie was bored and receiving scientific education, the conflict noises below became noticeably louder.

The three of them exchanged glances, then walked down the stairs together and came to the others. Then they heard Goto Ryuji, who had been silent the whole time, say, "Since both sides are so energetic, why not have a friendly match?"

This was something he had planned a long time ago. After all, in order to implement DFN's plan, it was necessary to understand the strength of the hunters from Country H.

Gao Jianli felt something was wrong, but... considering the current situation, Goto Ryuji's proposal was very natural. It could not only vent the anger of both sides, but also allow the two parties who were about to cooperate to have a general understanding of each other. In this case, if he refused, it would seem like he had something to hide.

However, when he thought that Xiadie was in charge anyway, the situation would not be too bad, so he lowered his vigilance a lot.

However, to prevent his side from appearing too relaxed and alerting DFN, Gao Jianli added, "That's fine, but the magic department doesn't need to participate in the difficult-to-determine outcome."

Goto Ryuji and his assistant looked at each other.

Judging from their actions and attitudes, it was normal for Country H to realize that something was wrong. However, without knowing their own plans, even Gao Jianli could not take any effective precautions.

This is probably to avoid exposing the strength of Choi Jung-in, who is known as 'humanity's strongest weapon'. No, that also includes the new S-class Xiadie.

But it doesn't matter and it won't affect their plans, the assistant thought.

Goto Ryuji is different. Xiadie gives him a very wrong feeling, and it may even cause their plan to fail. He must test this existence personally.

Although he thought so in his heart, he did not directly refuse: "I have no objection."

"I didn't expect Senior Che to come to training so early."

On the other side, Xiadie also walked to Che Huiyi's side.

"After all, President Cui asked for leave from school for me, so I can't waste a whole day of training."

Che Huiyi was also very happy to see Xiadie. She hadn't met Xiadie since the day she was rescued by Xiadie, but Xiadie's figure often appeared in her mind.

Xiadie has done her a lot of favors. Although they have only known each other for a short time, she gives Che Huiyi the feeling of being an "important person".

Maybe it's because she hasn't made many friends, whether before or after becoming a hunter... The seniors who could have become her friends, instead protected her immaturity...

Seeing Che Huiyi's sudden downturn, Xiadie was curious about her sudden change of expression, but she didn't forget the gift she wanted to give her: "Senior Che, can you spare some time after training today?"

"Ok?"

This seemed to be the first time Xiadie invited her.

The unexpected situation helped Cha Huiyi to get out of her emotions a lot. Then she nodded with a hint of joy: "Okay, I'm free anytime!"

Chapter 39: The Guild Leaders’ Envy.

"Sister Kanae, why are you looking so lost in thought?"

In the R country team, a girl with a bun and a lollipop in her mouth was listening to the rules of the friendly match, but she noticed that the black-haired senior next to her was distracted.

Moreover, her eyes were not on Goto Ryuji.

This situation is really rare. As far as she knows, Goto Ryuji is not only Kanae Tawada's idol, but also her mentor. Although there is no romantic relationship between the two, they have a stronger admiration than that.

Normally, Kanae Tawada should not have missed what Ryuji Goto said.

Being called back to her senses by the voice beside her, Kanae Tawada withdrew her gaze from the two girls in the H country team.

"I'm just a little curious about seeing a female S-rank hunter from another country."

She said in a flat tone.

"Ah... that's really rare."

Qing Shui Ming Li blinked, and then said on a whim: "How about inviting them out for dinner later? Just to enhance our friendship."

Hearing this, Tawada Kanae almost laughed bitterly.

She was Goto Ryuji's disciple, trusted him, and was also his confidant, so she knew DFN's plan this time. If the plan succeeded, all these H-country hunters would die on the island, thus enhancing their friendship...

Her gaze fell on Goto Ryuji again. Her admiration for him once came from his noble character of not caring about personal interests in order to protect the people, but now... the nobility she admired has become a flame like a candle in the wind.

This was unacceptable to her.

"Then it's decided. We will send Tanaka Kenzo, Hoshino Minoru, Kumamoto Atsushi, and Tawada Kanae."

Goto Ryuji said.

"We've also chosen ours: Ma Dongxu, Cha Huiyi, Bai Luhao, and Lin Zigui."

Gao Jianli said with a smile.

"Mr. Lin Zigui?"

Below the stands, Xiadie looked at Cui Zhongyin in confusion.

Despite being inexplicably treated as a commentator and know-it-all, Choi Jung-in kept a smile on his face. This was an opportunity to get closer, and there was no reason to miss it. "He's the president of the Envoy Guild, once the leading guild in Country H. But when Bai Luhao left, he took many people with him, causing the guild's strength to decline significantly. However, it's still one of the top five guilds."

There was another more offensive thing he didn't say, which was that the Envoy was still able to stay in the five major guilds because Lin Zigui was almost the only one leading the team. The overall strength of the guild was actually much weaker than that of Baihu and Hantes.

The strongest in overall strength is Baihu, but the strongest in high-end combat power is Hantes. Moreover, the strongest in overall strength is only slightly stronger, and there is no obvious gap. In addition, Hantes has Choi Jung-in with the strongest firepower and Che Huiyi with the strongest comprehensive ability, which established Hantes' reputation as the number one guild.

Xiadie nodded thoughtfully.

If Cha Huiyi only had the strongest overall strength before and was not necessarily able to defeat Bai Luhao in a life-and-death fight, then now Cha Huiyi can undoubtedly truly live up to the title of the strongest S-level hunter in H country.

Of course, Gao Jianli must be excluded.

The situation on the field is indeed like this. After Xiadie's guidance, the broadening of her horizons, and the tempering of the extreme survival test, Che Huiyi now has a completely different aura and strength from her a few days ago.

Although her magic power has not increased at all, her aura clearly shows that she is different from others. Even Long Er realized belatedly that he had missed out on such a genius in H Junior High School because he was too focused on Xiadie.

"What...that guy?"

As she entered a fighting stance, Cha Huiyi's aura was fully revealed. The calm yet profound magic power in her body made Shimizu Akari, who was watching the battle, swallow her saliva.

'It's like he's become a completely different person.'

The hunters from Country H naturally noticed something different about Cha Huiyi.

Cui Zhongyin smiled and looked at Xiadie.

Although he didn't know how Cha Huiyi had changed so much in such a short period of time, he knew that it must be related to Xiadie. He didn't even need to speculate about this fact, as it could be seen from Cha Huiyi's reaction.

Xiadie was a little confused by this look. Why did you suddenly have an expression as if you were looking at the teacher who brought up your daughter?

Of course, Cha Huiyi is also aware of her changes. If Bai Luhao is afraid of dementia, Ma Dongxu has low output, Lin Zigui and Cui Zhongyin are afraid of close combat, then Cha Huiyi is purely powerful, a hexagonal warrior without any shortcomings. If the stats are not enough, she is just a sideshow, but if the stats are enough, she is a pure supermodel.

The direction of the battle was like a one-sided crushing. When the difference in strength between the two sides was not that big, Cha Huiyi, who was obviously stronger, came in as if she were in an empty space. Tawada Kanae, who was the first to face her, was forced to retreat in less than ten moves.

She lay on the ground without even coming to her senses. If it weren't for the special rules and the fact that the opponent had no intention of killing her, she would have been killed within two moves.

Is this the strength of the dancer? Your country H has such a strong S-class player, yet you've never let her perform on the international stage?

After a brief "friendly exchange", the faces of the R country hunters had completely darkened. Although there were no magicians participating in this competition, this hearty defeat had already made them lose face. After all, they were still shouting at the beginning that the H country's S-level was not strong enough.

Even if that was a job I did because I was asked to be a little exaggerated, but... it's still very embarrassing!

"It seems that everyone has some understanding of each other's strength."

Seeing this, Gao Jianli walked out with an expected smile on his face.

Goto Ryuji frowned slightly, then continued, "It's not over yet. As I just said, after the multiplayer bout, there's a singles bout. After all, we need to understand each other's 'ace' strength before we can trust them. You don't want to invite an ally who is untrustworthy, do you?"

He pretended to stand up for his guild members.

"Ah."

Gao Jianli was not surprised by his actions. To put it bluntly, the other party just wanted to test Xiadie, which he understood very well.

However, he still pretended not to understand: "In that case, we will send out Hunter Cha Huiyi."

Cha Huiyi had seen everything that had just happened, and she knew that she possessed strength that was definitely beyond that of an ordinary S-class person.

"That's not right."

However, Long Er disagreed with this statement and then turned his attention to Xia Die: "If we are talking about 'ace', isn't there a more suitable candidate over there?"

Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions changed except for Gao Jianli, Cui Zhongyin, and Che Huiyi.

In their eyes, Goto Ryuji is almost invincible and can be compared with the hunter Liu Zhikang from Country Z. They will not make a mistake in judging such a strong man.

Cha Huiyi's strength is extremely obvious, but the other party still mentioned Xiadie in this situation. Does this mean that in Goto Ryuji's eyes, Xiadie is stronger than Cha Huiyi?

The hunters from Country R didn't expect that this small Country H would have so many hidden talents, although Xiadie was not from Country H.

The other hunters from Country H also looked at Xiadie in astonishment, and then several presidents looked viciously at Cui Zhongyin, who still had a smile on his face.

Great, no wonder they were stopped so tightly. Now it seems that Xiadie is definitely not just powerful. Considering Che Huiyi's situation, she also has ways or techniques to help other hunters improve their strength.

Choi Jung-in, you kid!

Chapter 40: The frustrated Country R.

"I forgot to introduce him. This butterfly hunter is our latest rising star and a powerful magic hunter."

Gao Jianli reminded.

"I'll give her time to prepare her magic. The outcome will be decided in three moves. Is that all right?"

Goto Ryuji seemed not to understand and said that the magician did not appear in the past, but this time it was an ace against an ace, so naturally there was no difference between magicians and non-magicians.

However, he was also aware of the magician's disadvantages in a one-on-one fight, so he gentlemanly gave him some time to prepare.

Seeing this, Gao Jianli looked at Xiadie.

Goto Ryuji also knew that some hunters were beyond the control of the association. What's more, Xiadie herself was not a hunter from Country H, but was registered in Country H. Although she was nominally managed by Country H, no one would refuse her if she cancelled her license and re-registered in other countries.

For example, in Country R, ​​if Xiadie said she wanted to give up her Country H license and join Country R, ​​Goto Ryuji would immediately welcome her.

"I'm sorry, sir."

Facing Goto Ryuji's challenge, Xiadie declined with a dignified smile: "My abilities are not suitable for sparring. Death cannot be tested. Anyone who wishes to witness death will inevitably be touched by the Hand of Gray Darkness, no matter how careful they are."

Everyone could hear the kindness in Xiadie's tone, but this instead aroused the dissatisfaction of the hunters from Country R.

You are a newcomer, why do you think you have the ability to challenge the strongest hunter in our R country? It only takes three moves, and you are already predicting death.

Goto Ryuji was not in a good mood either. Even though he knew better than anyone else that the other party was not looking down on him, it did not change the fact that the other party treated him as a weakling.

"I've had countless brushes with death, but death can't take my soul away."
