Douluo Continent: Dragon Shadow Rebirth

The day after the celebration banquet, Qin Feng, Chu Tian, ​​Zhang Meng, Ye Li, Wang Yue and others woke up in their dormitories. Last night's celebration made them feel relaxed and happy, but the uneasiness brought by the mysterious letter was still lingering. After a night's rest, Qin Feng decided to find the answer as soon as possible. He quickly got dressed and prepared to go to Vice President Feng Jian to inquire about the situation.

As soon as he walked out of the dormitory door, Qin Feng saw Chu Tian and Zhang Meng walking towards him. Chu Tian stretched and yawned as he walked: "Good morning, Qin Feng! Did you sleep well last night?"

Zhang Meng held a piece of bread in his mouth and said vaguely: "The vice president just came to us and said that there is a new task and asked us to gather at the training ground!"

Qin Feng nodded: "I was planning to ask him about the letter. Since the vice president has a mission, let's go there quickly."

The three of them hurried to the training ground. On the way, Ye Li and Wang Yue also came over. Ye Li seemed to have recovered her spirits, and her expression was firm. Wang Yue smiled and seemed to be full of expectations for the new task.

Ye Li asked softly: "Does the Vice President have any special mission for us?"

Chu Tian shrugged: "Who knows. But no matter what the task is, I'm a little excited."

The five of them came to the training ground together and found that Vice President Feng Jian had been waiting there. Several teachers from the academy stood beside him, all with serious expressions. Seeing Qin Feng and the others coming, Feng Jian nodded slightly.

Vice Dean Feng Jian waved his hand to signal everyone to gather together, then took out a map and unfolded it: "First of all, congratulations on your outstanding performance in the ruins mission. You have demonstrated courage and wisdom, and the academy is proud of you. But as mentioned in the letter last night, the threat of the Dark Cult is far from over."

Qin Feng looked at the map and found an unfamiliar area marked on it. He asked in confusion, "Where is this?"

Deputy Dean Feng Jian pointed to a point on the map and said, "This is an ancient relic in the north. Recently, we received intelligence that members of the Dark Cult have been active in this area. They seem to be looking for something important, and we must stop them."

Zhang Meng clenched his fists, his face full of fighting spirit: "Does that mean we have to go there and confront the Dark Cult head-on?"

Ye Li frowned and asked rationally: "Deputy Dean, how dangerous is this mission? Will the Dark Cult set a trap?"

Vice President Feng Jian nodded, his face solemn: "It is precisely because of the danger that we must be fully prepared. The motives of the Dark Cult are unclear, and their strength is growing. In this mission, you will not only face the enemy's frontal attack, but also be careful of potential traps."

Wang Yue thought for a moment and asked, "What do we need to prepare?"

Vice President Feng Jian continued, "In order to ensure that you can successfully complete the mission, we will conduct three days of special training for you. This training will cover four aspects: physical fitness, combat skills, strategic analysis, and teamwork."

When Chu Tian heard about training, his eyes lit up immediately: "Great! I love training the most! It's a good opportunity to stretch my muscles!"

Zhang Meng also patted Chu Tian on the back excitedly: "You and I are the same! This training will definitely be very challenging, I can't wait!"

Vice Dean Feng Jian smiled and continued, "During the training, you will encounter various simulated situations that will be as close to real combat environments as possible. Through these trainings, you will learn how to stay calm under pressure, how to deal with emergencies, and how to work effectively with team members."

Ye Li nodded to show her understanding: "This is necessary preparation. Only by discovering problems in training can we avoid mistakes in real battles."

Wang Yue agreed: "I will do my best to heal and support everyone and ensure that they don't get hurt during training."

Vice President Feng Jian looked at everyone with satisfaction: "Very good. The first task today is strategic analysis. Next, you will be divided into two groups, each responsible for developing an action plan for infiltrating and exploring the ruins."

Qin Feng and the others nodded when they heard this. They knew the importance of this mission. Everyone secretly made up their minds to go all out in the next training.

Everyone was divided into two groups according to the deputy dean's instructions. Qin Feng and Ye Li were in one group, and Chu Tian, ​​Zhang Meng and Wang Yue were in another group. The two groups sat on both sides of the training ground and began to formulate their own action plans.

Qin Feng looked at the map, pointed to a river on it and said, "This is a path leading to the ruins, which can be used as our entrance. We can use the river to sneak in and avoid the patrols of the Dark Cult."

Ye Li nodded in agreement: "Not bad. There are many trees near the river, which can provide good concealment. We can set up an ambush point here to prevent the enemy from discovering our tracks."

Qin Feng continued: "In addition, we also need to plan an emergency retreat route. If the situation is not good, we can evacuate quickly."

On the other side, Chu Tian was pointing at a small hill on the map and said, "This hill is in a good location and can be used as an observation point. We can send someone up there to scout and determine the enemy's movements."

Zhang Meng nodded, fiddling with a branch in his hand. "Good idea. We can also ambush a team of archers on the hill and catch the enemy off guard."

Wang Yue added: "But we must stay hidden. If we are discovered, we must move quickly and not engage in direct conflict with the enemy."

After some discussion, both groups worked out a detailed plan. Everyone agreed with each other's strategy, after all, this mission required them to work together.

In the afternoon, Vice President Feng Jian announced the next training content: simulated combat. The training ground was arranged into a small battlefield, with various obstacles placed around it and an open space in the middle.

Vice Dean Feng Jian explained: "You two groups will play the roles of attackers and defenders respectively. The defenders need to hold this open space, while the attackers need to find a way to break through the defense line and occupy the open space."

Qin Feng's group was designated as the defender, while Chu Tian's group was the attacker. The two groups quickly took their positions and prepared to start the simulated battle.

Chu Tian rubbed his hands and smiled evilly: "Qin Feng, this time I'm going to beat you to a pulp!"

Qin Feng replied unyieldingly: "Then it depends on whether you have the ability to do it!"

As soon as the simulated battle began, Chu Tian's group launched a fierce attack. With his agility, Chu Tian kept shuttling between obstacles, trying to find a breakthrough.

Zhang Meng drew fire from the front, brandishing his giant axe and shouting, "Come on! Come and hit me if you can!"

Wang Yue provided support from the rear and provided cover for Chu Tian and Zhang Meng.

Qin Feng and Ye Li on the defensive side closely watched the attacker's movements. Ye Li used a bow and arrow to accurately shoot and constantly suppress Chu Tian's attack.

Qin Feng stood in the center of the open space, his Dragon Shadow Sword flashing with cold light, ready to respond to any emergency at any time.

After a fierce battle, Chu Tian's group gradually approached the defensive position. Chu Tian keenly discovered a weak point in the defense line. He signaled Zhang Meng to cover him, and he quietly went around behind Qin Feng.

Just as Chu Tian was about to attack Qin Feng, Qin Feng suddenly turned around and blocked Chu Tian's attack with a sword.

Qin Feng smiled and said, "Chu Tian, ​​do you think I didn't notice you?"

Chu Tian laughed and said, "As expected of Qin Feng! But I came prepared this time!"

As he spoke, Chu Tian quickly retreated, while Zhang Meng rushed forward, swinging a huge axe and chopping at Qin Feng.

Qin Feng quickly parried, and the two confronted each other fiercely. At the same time, Chu Tian rolled over, dodged Ye Li's arrow, and quickly rushed into the center of the open space.

Ye Li tried to aim at Chu Tian, ​​but Wang Yue's healing magic made Chu Tian's movements more agile. Seeing that Chu Tian was about to occupy the open space, Qin Feng exerted his strength, repelled Zhang Meng, and then turned quickly, and the sword light slashed at Chu Tian like lightning.

Chu Tian was forced to dodge, but he was no longer able to occupy the open ground. The battle ended in a draw, with neither side having a clear advantage.

With the whistle of Vice President Feng Jian, the simulated battle ended. Both groups were exhausted and panting, but their faces were full of smiles.

Vice Dean Feng Jian stepped forward, nodded and praised: "Your performance was outstanding. Chu Tian's attack was swift and fierce, and Qin Feng's defense was solid. Ye Li and Wang Yue's support was also very timely. Through this training, you have become more coordinated with each other."

Chu Tian panted and said: "Although I failed to completely break through Qin Feng's defense this time, I will definitely find a way next time!"

Qin Feng smiled and patted Chu Tian on the shoulder: "Then I'll wait for you to see what new tricks you can come up with."

Zhang Meng laughed out loud: "Anyway, this training session was really enjoyable! I feel like I'm full of strength!"

Ye Li nodded: "We have trained our combat abilities in this way and have a better understanding of each other's strengths and weaknesses."

Wang Yue smiled and said, "Yes, our team is more united than before. This is the key to our success."
