章 313: Getting Ganged Up!

"Hiro, another group of students has overtaken us! Shall we increase our speed?"

One of his teammates asked Hiro anxiously. They had yet to reach Demonwood Forest but already many other participants had already gone ahead. He was getting anxious and thought that they should also increase their speed.

"No need! As discussed earlier, we will conserve our energy for now."

Hiro replied. He knew that conserving energy was very important for them, especially because of what happened at the last tournament. Unlike the one asking the question, he had personally experienced being attacked by others at school together.

No matter how strong one was when attacked by many students, one is bound to get tired and be eventually defeated. Hiro as the captain had to make sure that his teammates did not use much of their mana before confronting other participants.

Hence, they were one of the last teams to reach Demonwood Forest.
