Rebirth of the thief who roamed around the world (BOOK 4)

Chapter 626 - Master of All Trades!

"Xu Yan, how much defense do you have?" Chu Chenghao asked. "Since you're our highest level Fighter, I think you're the best choice for our main tank."

Xu Yan looked to Xia Tianyu, and Fei Zhe, who nodded back at him with looks of approval. They were all going to be part of the same team anyway. There was no point in hiding his stats.

"I recently got some better equipment. I have more than 7,000 defense right now, I think."

"What!? 7,000?" Chu Chenghao shot up to his feet in surprise. "You're not lying, right? Y-you really have over 7,000 defense?"

The other students were also dumbstruck. For Xu Yan to have more than 7,000 defense at his current level was unimaginable.

Chu Chenghao sucked in a breath of air. "7,000 defense... with you, we can easily run Arachnid Abyss. Even Darknight Gill is possible!"

"With 7,000 defense, you can even be the main tank in some of the larger guilds!"

"Asskickers United really is full of freaks. Even 7,000 defense isn't good enough to serve as a main tank in their second-rate teams!"

Everyone automatically assumed Xu Yan's defense was so high simply because he received good equipment as a member of Asskickers United. With a main tank like him, the whole team could improve their equipment within five days.

"With your defense, Fu Guangtao can't even hold a candle to you." Chu Chenghao sighed in admiration. "If I were you, I would've whooped his ass a long time ago."

Next up were Xia Tianyu and Fei Zhe. When they shared their stats, Chu Chenghao was equally shocked, as were the others.

Chu Chenghao could understand Xu Yan's defense being so high. However, Fei Zhe and Xia Tianyu weren't members of Asskickers United. Why were their stats so high too? There was no one in the entire command faculty who could compare to them.

Xia Tianyu and Fei Zhe glanced at Nie Yan sitting by himself further away. They simply smiled, not revealing anything.

"We'll be relying on you three from now on. You know, all of us are pretty skilled. It's just that we've never found a good team until now. I think we'll definitely surpass Zhao Shiyu, Fu Guangtao, and their lot. Anyway, we'll need a leader if we're going to be a team. I think it should be between one of you three," Chu Chenghao said. After finding out how strong Xu Yan, Xia Tianyu, and Fei Zhe were, he completely gave in and didn't bother fussing about who should be team captain.

"Let's have Xu Yan be the captain, and Chu Chenghao you should be the vice-captain," Xia Tianyu suggested.

"Sounds good to me," Xu Yan said.

"I think so too." Fei Zhe nodded.

Chu Chenghao didn't expect to be nominated. "H-huh, me? No, no, no. I'm far from qualified!"

"Ah, don't bother Chu Chenghao. It's already decided!" Xu Yan said.

"We believe in you," Xia Tianyu added.

At the urging of everyone, Chu Chenghao finally relented and agreed to become the vice-captain.

Like this, the basic structure of the team was decided.

Seeing Xu Yan, Xia Tianyu, and Fei Zhe pulling Chu Chenghao and the others to their side, Nie Yan faintly smiled. These students from the command faculty would definitely mature into elites of society, each holding influence over their own sphere. Bringing them together and befriending them now would definitely be helpful to him in the future.
