One by one, the members of each team declared their positions. Their voices rose and fell, eventually merging into a single, unified wave:
"Agreed! Agreed! Agreed!"
"..."
Not a single cadet raised an objection.
In the face of absolute strength and a remarkable combat record, any dissent seemed feeble. Besides, none of the cadets who had made it this far were fools. Rather than making an enemy of Zhang Yi now and earning his displeasure, it was better to seize this opportunity to build some goodwill and get on the new Overall Captain's radar. Perhaps in the future, when the Overall Captain built his own faction, he might remember their faces and give them a spot.
And so, with this one move, Zhang Yi won the approval of the vast majority of the cadets present.
Chief Instructor Yang nodded slightly, entirely unsurprised by this outcome. However, upon hearing the other cadets' chorus of approval, his gaze shifted to Tuoba Yu and Gu Yun, whose expressions were still grim.
