Armipotent

Kang Jiayi and Mu Liqiu watched their daughter leaving with Tang Shaoyang. The old man never expected his daughter would choose to leave with the man instead of staying with them.

"That's your decision, Old Ji!" His wife tapped his back, "She has grown up, it's just a matter of time before she leaves us. Unless you decide to join her husband's Empire, you can see your daughter every day, Kuhuhu…" Mu Liqiu let out a small giggle when she mentioned an empire. This year, it was funny when someone boldly declared that he wanted to establish an empire.

"Never! I will not help and work together with that traitor, let alone joining his imaginary empire!" Kang Jiayi stubbornly shook his head as he branded Tang Shaoyang as a traitor.

"Then get over it!" His wife rolled her eyes at him as she opened the objective, "But there's truly a faction called Tang Empire, maybe it's them!"

"I don't care!" The old man turned around and headed to the second sports hall. He ignored his wife and went back to the inside.

Mu Liqiu looked in the direction where her daughter went to. She could no longer be seen, "Tch, that old man just can't be honest to himself!"

Meanwhile, at the entrance of the third sports hall. Yi Qiao watched his ex-girlfriend leave with another man. He knew from the start of their relationship Kang Xue did not have a feeling for him. Even though the girl did not have a feeling, it does not mean he did not have a feeling for her. He clenched his palm in a fist as he could only watch the person he loved leaving.

Back to his room, Kang Jiayi closed the door gently. It was a lie if he did not regret his decision. The opposite party was offering him to work together, but he refused to work together. His loyalty to his country did not allow him to work together with someone who wanted to change his motherland.

However, he just met with his daughter but now they had to go separate ways. He could not help but feel sad about this, he thought his daughter would choose to stay with him. Later on, he would advise his daughter to persuade the man to join the military to rebuild their country if their country truly had fallen. That was his original plan, but the plan crumbled, and he had to separate from his daughter again.

"Since I have made the decision, I have to live with it…" the old man muttered as a sigh escaped from his mouth afterward.

Of course, Kang Xue decided to leave not because she wanted to separate from her parents, but because of Tang Shaoyang. From what she knew about him, he would force her to leave with him even if she said she wanted to live with her parents.

She did not want her parents to fight against Tang Shaoyang. Moreover, with her on the side of Tang Shaoyang, she could keep an eye on her father or might offer them help if they needed it. She came with Tang Shaoyang with many purposes in her head, not purely for Tang Shaoyang.

Tang Shaoyang rubbed her head when he noticed her concerned expression, "Don't worry, you can visit your parents later," he was not that cruel to separate the family. As long as the other side did not touch his interest or block his empire's path, he would not do anything to them.

"Mnnn," Kang Xue hummed while nodding her head.

"Will you do the same for me?" Zhang Mengyao suddenly asked. Tang Shaoyang confronted a big group of military survivors alone to get the girl, she wondered if he would do the same if it was her.

"Silly girl~," he messed up Zhang Mengyao's hair and whispered, "Of course, I will do the same for you, you two are my treasures," he coaxed the girls, causing her to blush.

'No hope, our captain truly was enraptured by this man,' Fu Dandan and Dai Wenqian shook their heads at the sight of their captain blushing.

Thanks to Tang Shaoyang and Zhang Mengyao's group, the others did not need to search for the survivors. The Tarriors and the slave groups had more time to rest, recovering from their exhausting trip to face the incoming game.

As for the Flame Castle, Tang Shaoyang did not bother to look for them. They focused on recovering to face the portal instead.

Ten hours was enough time to sleep and recover. They choose random houses near the entrance to sleep, waiting for the portal to be summoned.

Nine hours and fifty minutes passed just like that. At this moment, Tang Shaoyang and his people were having their time to fill their bellies. Tang Shaoyang was having a cup of noodles with a few slices of meat on top. The meats were greased with red-brownish sauce as a tantalizing aroma assaulted his nose.

He took a slice of meat with his chopstick and put the meat into his mouth. The sweet and spicy exploded in his mouth as the tender meat melted in his mouth. The sauce was fit with his taste bud, he raised his thumb at Kang Xue.

"Twis wis gud (this is good)~" he praised the girl. Zhang Mengyao also praised Kang Xue, after sleeping together, both became even closer, "Sister Xue, this is very tasty~"

Kang Xue smiled embarrassedly as she ate her portion. She was quite happy that her cook was being praised.

In five minutes, he finished two cups of noodles and a dozen slices of meat. After the three were done with their meal, they came out. The yellowish sunray started to shine on HZ Bay as the barrier did not block the sunray.

The Tarriors and the slave groups were lining up in order. They were ready to face the portal that was about to appear, though they did not have information where the portal would appear.

Tang Shaoyang had a satisfied smile as he looked at his people. He walked to the front of his people and stood with his hands on the back. Kang Xue and Zhang Mengyao stood behind him while Wei Xi and Lu An were in the line with the Tarriors.

Tang Shaoyang opened the objective screen of the Survival Game, checking the countdown. Right on the top corner of the screen, the countdown ticked down.

[00:01:07]

It was one minute before the portal appeared. He had his eyes on the countdown while the others also stared at the same screen.

5… 4… 3… 2… 1… 0…

The moment the countdown reached zero, a huge black hole appeared in the center of HZ Bay. It appeared in the air, around five hundred meters in the air.

A big blow of wind spread out from the black hole. Kang Xue and Zhang Mengyao's hair fluttered as everyone's attention was nailed to the black hole in the air.

Soon the black hole changed in color to purple, forming a big oval shape in the air. The purple color intensified and a crack started to appear on the purple-black hole.

Swoosh!

The black hole shot yet another huge wave of wind as it started to emit light. The light was getting brighter and brighter, forcing Tang Shaoyang and the others to close their eyes.

The blinding light lasted for a minute before it dissipated. After a minute, Tang Shaoyang opened his eyes. A portal appeared in front of him, it was the same black hole he saw in the air earlier. On top of the portal, he saw a screen.

[Finish the portal in 06:23:59]

"So this is the portal," Tang Shaoyang muttered as he came closer to the portal. He inspected the portal by walking in a circle. Three meters tall and a meter wide, that was the size of the portal. Aside from the size, he did not have any information about the portal.

"We will go as we planned. I and Zhang Mengyao's group will enter the portal first!" Tang Shaoyang shouted at his people.

The plan was for half of them to enter while the remaining half to guard the portal, just in case other people tried to enter and backstabbed them. It was precautious he set up against the Flame Castle.

Zhang Mengyao's group was seven women including Li Na while Tang Shaoyang brought Kang Xue with him. The first batch to enter the portal was nine of them.

Tang Shaoyang waved his hand at his people while entering the portal.

Swoosh!

The nine people's figure twisted and sucked into the portal. Such an effect shocked the people who watched the people entering the portal.

Wei Xi and Lu An looked at each other, they were unsure if it was the normal effect of people entering the portal or the portal failed to operate normally.

The group waited longer to see if the portal reacted abnormally. But nothing happened after a minute their Boss entered the portal.

After a moment, Wei Xi looked at Lu An and Lu An looked back at him. Their Boss did not come back, there was a possibility that the portal was a one-way portal. If it was a one-way portal then it was not necessary to guard the portal. They could enter the portal together and finish the portal faster.

To confirm his guess, Wei Xi sent the next team. The team led by Yan Sheng was composed of thirteen people. Just like their Boss, Yan Sheng entered the portal together, fourteen people's figures twisted and sucked into the portal.

After a couple of minutes of waiting, Wei Xi sent the next team, Lu An's team.

"If I don't come back in a minute, it means the portal is one-way!" Lu An told Wei Xi before he entered the portal.

After Lu An's entered the portal, Wei Xi waited precisely a minute. After a minute, Lu An did not come back, this time Wei Xi was sure that it was a one-way portal. Confirming this, Wei Xi sent the third team while his team entered the last.
