North America, a small town nestled in the forest.
This place is a town known as Blotto.
And the rescue signal that Alice had detected came from somewhere nearby.
Although the signal was very unclear, Alice confidently told Li Chen that it had definitely originated from here.
And in the vicinity, this was the only town.
Though the other leaders were very eager to come along with Li Chen, in the end, Li Chen only brought Ning Wangyang with him.
As for the others, Li Chen simply tossed Zhong Tian into the laboratory and told them, "When your strength can match his in a fight, then we can talk about you coming out."
Then, a bunch of people were resignedly beaten down to the ground.
Only Ning Wangyang managed to hold out for a full ten minutes against Zhong Tian's hands; therefore, Li Chen brought him along.
"Wangyang, you're just one step away from reaching the Yellow Rank, so I brought you out to get some exercise. This way, your chance of breakthrough will come faster."
