The team was fully assembled, and Xiao Jie immediately ordered them to set off for monster hunting.
Xiao Jie chose a beach along the eastern coast as the map for monster farming, spawning Giant Crabs, Sea Monkeys, and merfolk among other monsters.
With levels ranging from 15-16 at the lowest to 24-25 at the highest, these monsters were completely oppressable by his current strength, allowing him to control the situation with absolute power.
While maintaining control, he also had the leisure to fully observe the combat strength of these new team members.
people were divided into eight groups of five,
Adhering to the principle of using those close to him, Xiao Jie unapologetically appointed the core ten people as team leaders.
Hao Mie, Jiu Jianxian, Xia Yi the Unrivaled, and Hidden Dragon Do Not Use, each led a close combat team.
Bai Ze and Dida La were in charge of two Magic System teams.
Ye Luo and I Want to Be Immortal led two special teams.
The coordination battle in the afternoon went smoothly; these selected team members had considerable levels and survival skills in the game were not too shabby.
In this life-or-death game context, nobody messed around; everyone took it seriously, and by the end of the afternoon, they not only garnered substantial experience but also improved their cooperation significantly.
The team members also made some adjustments during the combat.
The Hidden Dragon Do Not Use group was entirely switched to the General system, suitable for charging at the front, forming the Military Generals Group (not entirely made of Generals, it included Iron Guards too), with strong Defense and not weak Attack Power, and could also summon guards, forming a formidable defense line in combat.
The groups under Jiu Jianxian and Xia Yi the Unrivaled were composed of Swordman, Swordsman, Hero, Mountain Splitter and other close combat professions, responsible for the main physical damage output.
Meanwhile, Hao Mie’s group consisted of Martial Artists and Martial Monks, suitable for close-range combat.
The two Magic System teams were also re-planned, one responsible for control and the other for magical damage output (including a Divine Archer).
The two special teams were also restructured, with Ye Luo leading an assassination group composed of assassins and Flying Thieves.
I Want to Be Immortal led the other four for a special team of unconventional Professions.
Xiao Jie also identified several masters among these new members, Blade Warrior (Swordman), Life-stealing Scholar (Sword Master), Meteor Butterfly Tears (Master Assassin)... Although they were slightly inferior compared to the levels of Hao Mie and Xia Yi the Unrivaled, they were definitely considered masters.
At least capable of performing secret techniques.
By nightfall, Xiao Jie led everyone back to the city for rest and recovery, feeling he had a basic grasp of the team.
With an afternoon of cooperative fighting, everyone also became familiar with each other, and the newly joined members were no longer as tense and anxious as before.
Xiao Jie planned to further consolidate for two more days before officially starting activities.
In the next two days, continuing with Dragon Soaring Group 2 around Xiaofeng City, various maps for monster farming and leveling, he successfully advanced to level 31.
As his level increased, Xiao Jie looked at the newly gained 5 attribute points and thought to himself—It seems this Mengpo Soup will have to be left for someone destined.
He had been grappling with whether to reset his attributes, but eventually decided against it; his current configuration was somewhat like a jack of all trades, without significant weaknesses—aside from a Faith of 0.
Resetting attributes didn’t seem quite right either; the core capability of a Demon Master is the Transformation Technique, and the combat power after Transformation also relies on Basic Attributes.
So, this physically biased configuration isn’t bad.
Now, the task is to officially start building the nation.
