Besides, after forming a team, the experience gained from killing monsters would be divided equally. The more people, the less experience each person received. Soloing was much more efficient.
Of course, any other Wood Summoner wouldn't dare to solo, nor would they have the ability to do so.
But Soren was different. His equipment slots had increased to sixty. By purchasing a large number of offensive items, his attack power would skyrocket, making soloing a breeze.
“Alright then.” Wyatt didn’t think too much about it and went off to talk with other students.
It had to be said that Shield Warriors were indeed popular; many students wanted to team up with him.
Soren stood around idly, pulling out his phone to browse the news.
A short while later, Wyatt stormed back, fuming.
“What’s wrong? Who made you angry?” Soren asked curiously.
Wyatt huffed, “Damn it! Those snobs! They actually refused to team up with you!”
He had thought that with his Shield Warrior profession, bringing Soren along wouldn’t be a problem.
Unexpectedly, as soon as they heard Soren’s name, they all declined.
So what if he was a Wood Summoner?
He was just a bit weaker.
Was it necessary to be so discriminatory?
“It’s fine,” Soren said indifferently.
He had anticipated this and didn’t take it to heart.
He had planned to solo anyway. Even if someone invited him, he wouldn’t have accepted.
Wyatt said exasperatedly, “How can it be fine? Without a team, how are you going to pass the assessment?”
“I have my ways,” Soren replied, raising an eyebrow.
“What ways could you possibly have?” Wyatt sighed. “If nothing else works, we’ll team up.”
Soren was his best friend; they had grown up together and shared a deep bond.
He could ignore others, but not Soren.
Just as Soren was about to reply, Christian Shaw approached with three other students.
Christian sneered, “Wood Summoner is a trash profession. Anyone who teams up with him is an idiot.”
He gave Soren a provocative look, then turned to Wyatt. “Wyatt, I advise you to stay away from Soren and team up with us.”
The other students chimed in, “Wyatt, don’t let some misplaced sense of loyalty ruin your chances. Sticking with Soren will only lead to failure.”
“Mind your own business!” Wyatt snorted.
Christian and his cronies were all birds of a feather, none of them good.
Teaming up with them would be no different from joining their ranks.
Christian’s expression darkened. “A wise man submits to circumstances. No one wants to team up with Soren. Think it over carefully.”
“Don’t bother. Worry about yourself,” Wyatt retorted, giving Christian no quarter.
Soren was puzzled. Christian usually looked for trouble, but today’s open mockery seemed excessive.
They didn’t have any real conflict. Why was Christian targeting him?
In fact, there was only one reason for Christian’s behavior: jealousy.
Christian had a long-standing crush on Autumn Montgomery, but she liked Soren.
Unable to win her heart, he directed all his resentment towards Soren.
“You ungrateful wretch!” Christian’s lips twitched in anger.
Soren’s eyes narrowed, his voice turning cold. “Wyatt has already made it clear he doesn’t want to team up with you. Why are you still pestering him? Are you that desperate?”
He had tolerated Christian’s provocations before because he lacked the strength to retaliate.
But now, he had undergone his class change and obtained the Infinite Enhancement System.
Continuing to endure wouldn’t be tolerance, but cowardice.
“You dare insult me?” Christian was taken aback.
The other students were also surprised.
In their impression, Soren was always low-key.
What was going on today?
Why was he so confrontational?
He seemed like a different person.
“I’m not insulting you, you’re asking for it,” Soren said calmly, rubbing his nose. “Aren’t you just a Beast Warrior? In my eyes, that’s just another trash profession. Where do you get the nerve to mock others?”
“What?” The students were dumbfounded.
While Beast Warrior wasn’t the strongest Combat Profession, it was definitely among the top ranks, far superior to Wood Summoner.
Where did Soren get the confidence to say such things?
“Haha!” Christian laughed, not angered but amused. “Soren, you’re really good at bluffing! Do you think you’re all that? Put your money where your mouth is. Let’s have a competition!”
“How?” Soren raised an eyebrow.
Christian said directly, “Isn’t there an assessment tomorrow? Let’s see who gets the better score. The loser kneels and calls the winner ‘Grandpa.’ Do you dare?”
“Why not?” Soren readily agreed.
With the system in hand, the world was his.
He had absolute confidence in the upcoming assessment.
Christian wanted to suppress him?
He would let Christian humiliate himself.
“Huh?” Everyone was stunned.
A Wood Summoner competing with a Beast Warrior?
Was there any comparison?
It would be a complete slaughter!
Had Soren gone mad?
Wyatt was anxious, frantically signaling to Soren. “Soren, don’t be impulsive!”
In his opinion, ten Sorens wouldn’t be a match for Christian.
It was a guaranteed loss. Why would Soren agree to this? Was he a fool?
“I have everything under control,” Soren said with a faint smile.
Wyatt gulped, speechless.
“You said it yourself. Everyone here is a witness!” A triumphant smirk spread across Christian’s face. “With your trash profession, no one will team up with you. How are you going to compete with me?”
“Who says no one will team up with Soren?”
A clear, feminine voice suddenly drifted over.
Everyone turned to see an elven-like girl walking towards them with graceful steps.
It was Autumn Montgomery, the school beauty.
She stopped in front of Soren and softly asked, “Soren, can I team up with you?”
Everyone was stunned.
What was going on?
Autumn Montgomery was主动 inviting Soren to team up?
Inviting a useless Wood Summoner?
Had they heard wrong?
Soren politely declined. “I’m sorry, I prefer not to team up with girls.”
Teaming up meant sharing experience, hindering his rapid leveling and potentially exposing his secret.
Therefore, he absolutely couldn't join a team.
Wyatt and the others were dumbfounded.
Such a good opportunity, and Soren refused?
Refused an invitation from the school beauty?
Was he made of steel?
“Damn it!” Christian’s face was ashen.
He had approached both Xu Fanqing and Autumn Montgomery earlier, but both had ignored him.
On the other hand, Soren had just rejected Autumn Montgomery’s invitation.
Why was the difference so stark?
How could he, a Beast Warrior, be inferior to a Wood Summoner?
