Too Many Reincarnators? I Bring the National Team to the Field - Chapter 108

Chapter 108

Lou Mingwei spun around and barked at Ruan Zifeng, “What are you saying? You actually gave the Verbal Spell Ability User to Group B?!”

He started walking toward the exit. “We need to hurry and get him back. Ruan Zifeng’s words don’t count!”

Li Wanyun had already burst out laughing. She said faintly, “You’ve already chosen the hair Mutant; how can you go back on your word? Our group didn’t regret choosing Qin Xuan.”

Gu Qiansheng’s brow furrowed deeply.

He stared at Ruan Zifeng and suddenly asked, “Can we go back on it? Want to trade?”

Lou Mingwei’s eyes lit up. Just as he was about to speak, Xiang Hanshuang pulled him back.

She looked at Gu Qiansheng, tucked a lock of hair behind her ear, and gave a slight smile. “Since the choice has been made, we naturally won’t regret it. Zhuang Fan goes to Group B. Jiang Ling, come with us.”

The originally fuming Jiang Ling was momentarily stunned.

Why did it seem like no one wanted her just a moment ago, yet now everyone was willing to take her?

Lou Mingwei was still jumping with frustration. “But why? That’s a Verbal Spell Ability User!”

Jiang Ling’s face instantly turned cold. She looked at Xiang Hanshuang and asked in a sinister tone, “I’d like to ask, if I attack a teammate, what kind of punishment will I receive?”

Xiang Hanshuang’s gaze flickered over the agitated Lou Mingwei. She replied calmly, “Appropriate sparring carries no punishment.”

-Some people were just asking for a beating.

Jiang Ling smiled with satisfaction.

With that, the members of Group A departed.

Lou Mingwei refused to leave, so Jiang Ling dragged him out by his hair. Soon, the sound of Lou Mingwei being pummeled echoed from outside.

Inside the room.

Gu Qiansheng’s face was grim as he took a deep breath.

Li Wanyun was grinning happily, but when she turned to look at him, she froze. “What’s wrong?”

Gu Qiansheng said, “Ruan Zifeng has an Investigation Ability. There’s no way he would agree to give up Zhuang Fan and choose Jiang Ling as a teammate without a reason.”

Li Wanyun was confused. “?”

She looked bewildered. “What other reason could there be? A hair Mutant has strong combat power, but they aren’t unique. I never even heard of a Verbal Spell Ability User in my past life. Besides, that guy is profound and inscrutable; he’s definitely not simple.”

She didn’t feel they had made the wrong choice.

Gu Qiansheng said nothing more and walked away.

The choice was made, there was no possibility of changing it, and there was no point in further discussion. He would know once they got back and checked.

Meanwhile.

Xiang Hanshuang looked at Ruan Zifeng. “Why did you give up on Zhuang Fan? Is there something wrong with him?”

Ruan Zifeng scratched his head. “I couldn’t tell, but…”

After a pause, his voice carried a hint of uncertainty. “That Verbal Spell Ability User talks too little. It just feels weird. Jiang Ling is very strong; choosing her won’t be a mistake regardless.”

Xiang Hanshuang thought about it and didn’t press further.

At the villa.

Long Tianyu brought Zhuang Fan back, laughing loudly. “Hahaha! Where is everyone? Come out, quick! I’ve snatched back the Verbal Spell Ability User!”

At this time, only Ke Jiaxue and Liu Yue were in the house.

The two of them walked out.

Ke Jiaxue exclaimed, “Wow, a Verbal Spell Ability User. Impressive.”

Liu Yue asked, “Is he stronger than the other hair Mutant?”

Long Tianyu rolled his eyes. “Duh. Do you think I’m a moron like Li Xin? Naturally, I only made the choice after judging their strength.”

He flopped onto the sofa, looking extremely relaxed. “Group A wants to surpass us? In their dreams!”

Ke Jiaxue looked at Zhuang Fan and gave a friendly smile. “Hello.”

Liu Yue also extended a hand. “Hello, teammate.”

This was a Verbal Spell Ability User!

Zhuang Fan looked at their hands. After a moment’s hesitation, he reached out and shook them quickly-so quickly it was as if he had merely brushed against them before immediately withdrawing.

After the brief contact, he nodded calmly as a greeting.

The two were left stunned. “???”

Is this newcomer a bit arrogant?

Just then, Sheng An and the others returned.

Sheng An led the way with Qi Lingwu, followed by Hao Jingye and Ji Yani.

They were in the middle of a conversation.

Ji Yani asked, “So now we’re just waiting for Qin Xuan’s psychological profile?”

Hao Jingye nodded. “Yes. I just transferred the personnel over. They’re all top domestic experts. Song Linwei is still standing guard at the hospital, hoping to get an effective profile as soon as possible.”

“Can we really rely on a three-year-old child?” Ji Yani asked skeptically.

Hao Jingye had a headache and let out a long sigh. “Qin Xuan is a Superpower User after all. Hopefully, there’s some difference between him and an ordinary three-year-old…”

As they spoke, the group entered the villa.

Sheng An noticed the extra person immediately, her eyebrows arching slightly.

Seeing them return, Long Tianyu stepped forward excitedly and said boastfully:

“How about it? I snatched the Verbal Spell Ability User back. Group A wanted him too; they even sent out Xiang Hanshuang and Lou Mingwei.”
“But with my overwhelming strength, I forced Group A into submission and snatched up the Verbal Spell Ability User in one fell swoop!”

Long Tianyu’s entire face was practically screaming the words: “Praise me.”

Hao Jingye and Ji Yani: “…”

Sheng An inquired, “Have you tested his ability? To what extent can he exert it? Is it a single-target or area-of-effect ability? What are the limitations on its use?”

Long Tianyu blinked. “?”

He looked utterly blank. “Huh? We have to ask all that? I tried his ability; he told me to fall, and I immediately tripped on flat ground…”

Hao Jingye was speechless.

That familiar sense of unreliability permeated his heart, making him feel inexplicably anxious.

He looked at Zhuang Fan and gave a slight smile. “Hello. This is the leader of Group B, Sheng An, and I am her assistant, Hao Jingye. Welcome to Group B. Do you have any requests? However, we also hope you can be honest about your strength so we can understand your situation, make reasonable arrangements, and formulate a training plan for you.”

Zhuang Fan frowned slightly upon hearing this. He opened his mouth as if to say something, but in the end, no words came out.

Sheng An’s gaze turned suspicious.

Long Tianyu began to complain, “Sheng An, this guy is incredibly arrogant. No matter what you say to him, he only ever replies with a single word. When we greeted him, he acted like he couldn’t be bothered with us.”

He leaned closer to Sheng An and continued his tattle-telling. “Seriously, he’s way more arrogant than I am. He ignores his teammates’ greetings, and when you ask him questions, he doesn’t answer. This kind of person needs to be taught a lesson!”

The Verbal Spell Ability was still too terrifying.

Long Tianyu didn’t have the confidence to deal with him personally, but Sheng An definitely could.

Zhuang Fan instinctively took a step forward, his face showing signs of anxiety.

After a long pause, he managed to say, “N-No.”

“What do you mean ‘no’? You’re clearly arrogant. If it weren’t for your bit of talent, do you think I’d want you in Group B? The only reason Ruan Zifeng from Group A gave you up was probably because you’re so annoying!” Long Tianyu pointed at him. “Sheng An, Qi Lingwu, quick, teach him a lesson.”

Just like they had taught him a lesson back then, he wanted them to ruthlessly deal with this “poser.”

Sheng An paused, her brow furrowing slightly.

Hao Jingye also sensed something was wrong. His voice carried a hint of testing. “Wait, you said Ruan Zifeng gave him up?”

“Yeah.” Long Tianyu grinned, looking very proud of himself. “Ruan Zifeng told us not to fight. He said both candidates were very good, so I took the opportunity to make him agree to let Zhuang Fan join us. I snatched him away so fast that Group A didn’t even have time to react. Hahaha!”

He laughed brightly, his face still saying-praise me.

Sheng An took a deep breath and said slowly, “Ji Yani, test his ability.”

“Yes!”

Ji Yani moved instantly, grabbing Zhuang Fan and activating her Supernatural Ability. She blurred through the room with him at extreme speed, accompanied by faint sounds of impact.

Zhuang Fan remained stiff as he was dragged along, unmoving.

Ji Yani was incredibly fast, even racing up and down the stairs.

They had experimented before; unless a person had immense physical and mental fortitude, being carried by Ji Yani was like being on a terrifying combination of a roller coaster and a drop tower.

Since she was just holding the person without any safety measures, the sense of terror was doubled.

This was different from Long Tianyu’s Flash.

Flash was a momentary black-out followed by appearing in another location; it was over before one could even react.

But speed involved a long period of experience and reaction time.

Zhuang Fan was not a Reborn Person and had never experienced this. Suddenly being dragged along at such speeds, he would naturally try to stop Ji Yani’s actions out of pure instinct…

Sure enough-

Ji Yani had only been running for a dozen seconds when the usually silent Zhuang Fan spoke up.

“F-F-Fast-” His voice was urgent.

Ji Yani’s speed nearly doubled. Only a blurred afterimage remained in the room, kicking up a gale. Because she was moving too fast, she lost control, crashing into things with loud bangs and knocking over tables and chairs.

Ji Yani screamed, “Crap! I can’t stop! Aaaaaah!”

Long Tianyu’s eyes widened in shock. “Is he that gutsy? He actually told Ji Yani to go faster? Is he treating a Speed Supernatural Ability User like a thrill ride?”

In the next moment, Zhuang Fan’s voice continued-

“F-F-F-Fast-st-st-st-st-stop!”

*Bang!*

Ji Yani came to a dead halt, tumbling down the stairs with Zhuang Fan. The two of them slammed heavily onto the floor, smashing a chair to pieces.

Ji Yani was drenched in sweat.

Zhuang Fan was pale, trembling uncontrollably.

Sheng An took a deep breath, and Hao Jingye and the others fell into a collective silence.

This Verbal Spell Ability User…

He was a stutterer!
