Shao Qi received a message and was quickly sent two folders. The sender informed him, "Boss, there are two extreme exploration teams nationwide. One in Yang City and the other in Dawn City. See which one you're looking for."

Shao Qi first looked into the team from Yang City. Including the clerks, they numbered seventy-five. He scanned the list and didn't find anyone named Gao Chengxue. He had Li Yunxi check the photos, but she recognized none of them.

"It's not them. Could they have given false information?" Li Yunxi was on the verge of breaking down. She thought she had identified her enemy, but if all the information was wrong, where would she start?

Zhao Jinghao put on his clothes and peeked at the files, asking, "Where did you get this info, Shao? Isn't our base's network disconnected from the outside world?"

Without answering him, Shao Qi opened the other folder and remarked, "I've heard of the Dawn City's exploration team. They're quite renowned there. Given the distance, their chances of hunting in the Yunlan Mountains are slim."

Zhou You added, "Exactly. According to them, they ventured into the Yunlan Mountains a year ago. So, it's unlikely the team is from Dawn City. It's probably the one from Yang City."

Nonetheless, Li Yunxi scoured the personnel data in the folder, still failing to identify the culprit.

Overwhelmed, she crouched down, holding her head, "What should I do? I don't even know my enemies. How can I take revenge?"

Zhao Jinghao sighed, "It's difficult. There are hundreds of exploration teams in Yang City."

Zhou You lifted Li Yunxi up, looking into her eyes, "Pull yourself together. As long as they're alive, we'll find them. We can check each base, one by one. You're young. Why wouldn't you find them?"

"But the point now is you shouldn't retreat or give up. To get your revenge, you need to become stronger. Even if the enemy stood before you now, could you defeat them?"

Through her tears, Li Yunxi responded, "I... I understand." She was resilient, having faced both humans and mutant beasts, but this setback was tremendous.

Shao Qi sat down and suggested, "There's another way. Considering the current weather, they couldn't have gotten far even with armored vehicles. They might be heading to the next supply station. If we pursue now, we might catch up, but..."

He glanced at Zhou You. In the entire Jiangnan base, Zhou You might be the only one to intervene for the Morning Glow Team. That's just two people, after all. This is someone else's vendetta.

The national law can't punish murderers in the wild. Should they take revenge for the Morning Glow Team?

Li Yunxi's sense of reality returned. She knew she couldn't trouble anyone other than Zhou You. Given the formidable strength of that team, they might not stand a chance even if they caught up.

Truth be told, she misunderstood Zhou You's capabilities. However, Zhou You had no obligation to assist. She said, "No, I want to personally avenge my brother. I need to become stronger! If they're probably from Yang City's base, we'll encounter them someday."

Shao Qi had expected her to plead with Zhou You to chase the culprits. Impressed by her statement, he assured, "Don't worry. As long as they're alive, I'll help you find them."

However, whether Li Yunxi could ever exact her revenge was no longer his concern.

Zhao Jinghao wasn't content, "We should chase them. We've lost many comrades. We can't let this go. I'll report to the commander and request reinforcements."

Shao Qi held him back, "The snow outside is thick, and the blizzard is raging. There's little chance of success unless the commander is willing to deploy two major generals."

Realizing the improbability, Zhao Jinghao cursed, "I hope they perish on their journey!"

Chapter 077: Live Teaching

Disheveled but with a growing determination in her eyes, Li Yunxi knelt before Zhou You, "Mr. Zhou, please take me as your disciple. I want to become stronger!"

Zhou You was taken aback. She was the first to ever ask him for mentorship, and he had never imagined taking Li Yunxi as his disciple.

Shao Qi swiftly helped her up, suggesting, "I actually have a better idea for you. Given your strength-oriented martial background, you can select techniques that better suit you. The Jiangnan Base will soon offer martial arts classes for the public. You can choose one or several techniques then, which is a far better choice than impulsively seeking a master."

"Martial arts for the public?" Li Yunxi and Zhao Jinghao had never heard of such a program before.

"It's a program open to everyone, taught through live streaming. Keep an eye out these next few days; it'll begin shortly," he explained.

The group then deliberated over where Li Yunxi should reside. It wasn't quite appropriate for a woman to stay in the military zone, especially with Zhou You's residence already housing a white tiger cub.

"Stay with us," Shao Qi proposed, casting a glance at Zhou You. "It'll be good company for Miao Miao." Having seen the white tiger cub before, Li Yunxi wasn't likely to spill the secret.

Inside the military hospital, a group of elder men surrounded Wu Yang's bed. Fresh out of surgery, he was yet to regain consciousness.

"Isn't this the son from Deputy Captain Wu's family? Why is he back again?" Dr. Zhao recognized Wu Yang instantly, familiar with many in the squad.

The soldier who brought Wu Yang in hadn't clarified the situation, only mentioning that a Major surnamed Zhao had returned after two days with a woman and a child.

Li Yunxi visited the hospital after finishing her errands and, seeing old acquaintances, broke down in tears. When others learned of the Dawn Squad's annihilation, a heavy pall descended.
