Jeremy Night's expression was gloomy. He was beginning to think it's impossible for the three of them to stay on the same team. He noticed some unwanted people. Some of the 2nd Year Beast Tamers were giving him dagger eyes. He hadn't offended anyone during the 2nd Year. This could leave only one possibility: the Medium-Sized Families who had conspired against him. The 2nd Year Students who were involved were also released. He then thought of Robin and Rudi. His gaze swept across the 1st Year Attack Department. Seeing that Robin and Rudi were not there, he sighed inwardly. He could understand their reason. If they had participated, he would have found the opportunity to kill them here. On the other hand, the 10 Captains came to the 1st Year and started talking to the Department Instructors. "I wonder whether they will pick us," Betsy said with a concerned voice. "I'm sure they will. During war, each person's power is important," Daniel Stone said from the side. Jeremy could understand their worries. He then looked at Instructor Jacob. The Instructor wasn't showing up, but he was as worried as Betsy and Daniel. Time passed. Those who were selected stood behind their respective captains. Some of them shot meaningful looks at the Striker Department. "Disgusting! It's war, not a university competition. Why are they acting like this right now?" Daniel said angrily. "Kids, don't worry. Focus on saving your lives first. They have their lifeline beasts with them. Their chances of survival are high," Jacob said. Hearing that, Daniel immediately calmed down. He could see that the Instructor did not intend to make fun of him; he was dead serious. "The Instructor is right. Unless absolutely necessary, don't rely on your Lifeline beast to fight. If something happens to the Lifeline beast, then your mental zone will be damaged," Jeremy said. It was common knowledge that the mental zone was precious to Beast Tamers. "Don't worry. I have trained without a lifeline beast," Betsy Lowe said confidently. "I have some experience as well," Daniel said. "Who do we have here?" One of the Captains approached the Striker Department, but his voice was sarcastic. The Captain who spoke earlier heard this and sneered. "Kid, you are boasting too much. You think you can kill more Corrupted Beasts than others?" he said. Hearing that, everyone's gaze fell on Jeremy. Jeremy remained unfazed. He wouldn't be making any stupid bets right now. "I'm better than cannon fodder," Jeremy replied. Instructor Jacob wanted to stop Jeremy from saying anything. Right now, they are in military camps. If he offended someone, then the consequences would be disastrous. The other 1st Year Department Instructors showed worry as well. They knew Jeremy Night's strength. The Captain said, "I don't want such an arrogant member on my team." After saying that, he turned around and left. Jeremy displayed a relaxed smile. The 1st Years standing behind the Captains were shocked. "Why is he talking back to the Captain?" "What if he puts himself in danger?" "Jeremy Night is strong. He can hunt Tier-3 beasts himself. We should worry about ourselves." The 1st Years were discussing among themselves. The 2nd Year Beast Tamers were surprised to see such an arrogant junior. Only some of the Beast Tamers in the Attack Department did not make fun of him. They were sure of Jeremy's strength. The 2nd Year Attack Department Instructor, Hudson, wore a bitter smile. He didn't know what everyone's reaction would be once Jeremy started killing the invading Corrupted Beasts. The 3rd and 4th Year Beast Tamers were watching everything for fun. They didn't know how the 1st Year Beast Tamers let such an arrogant junior boast this much. They could see that no one from the 1st Year was talking back to that kid, including those from the Attack Department, Defense Department, Elemental Department, and Control Department. This was surprising to them. In each year, the strong ones were usually from these departments. This time, they were witnessing something new.
