Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen)
Chapter 2064

At that moment, Kaegan thought of something all of a sudden and said, "Then we're missing one person since there's only nine of us. Could it be..."

He thought of something as he was halfway through his words. He stopped talking and nervously looked at Fade.

After all, Tiana, who was missing from the team, had withdrawn her participation because of her conflict with Fade. After the rebellion incident with the Long family, there was no trace of her as she had yet to be found.

Fade didn't feel anything wrong about that. He doubtfully glanced at Gregary and said, "Gregary, we still have one more empty slot. Why didn't we add another person?"

"Yeah, with one more person, we can have ten participants in the team competition. It'll give us a better chance of winning!"

Gregary shook his head and explained, "It's not that simple. It was only after the special training at the drilling platform that all of you managed to familiarize yourself with each other to have a connection and chemistry among the team."

"Hence, adding one more person at the last minute would be difficult for the person to become familiar with all of you in a short time. On the contrary, it might affect your overall performance due to the unfamiliarity."

"Besides, the ten of you were carefully selected by us. It's difficult to find another candidate who's stronger than all of you and who is suitable for the competition. If his or her strength is on par with you all, or even weaker than any of you, there's no point in him or her joining at the last minute."

"So, after Tiana's withdrawal, we decided not to increase the number of people but just participate in the competition with the team of nine."

Upon hearing his explanation, everyone finally understood and they nodded their heads.

"Well, there's still a few hours left. You can take some rest now!" After saying that, 6 reg ary got up and bid farewell to them.

Soon after, the team members didn't continue talking with each other but took a rest on the plane and tried to get into the best state for the contest.

A few hours later, the plane landed in Micovia. Everyone carried their own luggage and got off the plane.

As the team leader, 6 reg ary confirmed everyone's presence and was ready to leave with the team.

A phone call sounded at that moment. He motioned for the team to remain silent before taking out his mobile phone to answer the call, "Hello, Gregary speaking."

"What? How could this happen?"

"This is complete nonsense. It's less than three days before the competition. It doesn't make sense to add anyone into the team now!"

"Yes, it's my opinion. I don't agree, I definitely disagree!"

After hanging up the phone, Gregary seemed furious.

The team instantly felt astonished and curious at the same time. They wanted to ask what had happened.

Even before they could speak, Gregary's mobile phone rang once more. As soon as he saw the caller ID, his facial expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly picked up the phone, "General Liu, I'm Gregary."

"I just found out about it."

"This is too outrageous. I don't..."

"Yes, I'll complete the task," Gregary said as he straightened up his position.

Soon after that, he hung up the phone; his expression was solemn. He stood still for more than ten seconds without a word.

Tiger came forward and asked, "Mr. Zhao, what happened?"

Gregary slightly trembled and said, "The superior just called and said that he wants to add another participant to our team."

"What? Add another person now?"

"Are you kidding me? It's too sudden to add someone in at the last minute!"

"Then, what about familiarizing ourselves and the alliance among the team?"

"Mr. Zhao, it's not a good idea. When we were on the plane, you listed out the disadvantages of adding another person at the last minute. Now..."

They were surprised and their faces were filled with disbelief.

Gregary smiled bitterly and said, "I can't do anything about it. It's an order from the superior."

"Let's explain the current situation, and maybe the higher-ups will understand us," Tiger tried his best to say.

Gregary shook his head and said, "I expressed my opinions to them on the phone. However, the last call was from General Liu. He said that this is the order from the executives, and it must be executed." Upon hearing that, everyone's expressions darkened.

Jotham Liu, who was General Liu, was second to Jaguar in the army. His position was inferior to Jaguar; but he was the second fiddle in the army. He was an expert at the peak stage of the Heaven Level and he ranked seventh on the Divine Dragon List.

During the previous incident with the Zhao family, Fade also confronted Jotham when he was killing Elijah.

At the thought of that, he couldn't help but look up at Greg ary, saying, "Mr. Zhao, it's General Xu who's responsible for the competition. It's better to report this matter to General Xu and let him..."

Before Fade could finish his words, Gregory shook his head with a wry smile, "General Liu told me over the phone that General Xu also agreed to this matter."

"What!"

At that moment, even Fade was shocked and looked puzzled.

After all, the consequence of adding a new team member at the last minute was obvious and straightforward. It was impossible for Jaguar not to understand that. However, it was puzzling as to why he still agreed to it.

"What's going on? Are both General Liu and General Xu confused?" Joey couldn't help complaining.

Although the others didn't say anything, they had that thought in their mind as well.

Greg ary sighed. He wanted to comfort his team members, but he didn't know what he should say.

Meanwhile, a man handed a tablet over and informed Greg ary, "Mr. Zhao, there's a document from General Liu."

"It's the details!" Greg ary immediately took the tablet over and read the document from Jotham.

A few minutes later, as soon as he finished reading the document, he couldn't help but sigh in understanding, "I see. No wonder General Liu and General Xu agreed to it." Upon listening to his words, the others were curious as they inquired.

"Mr. Zhao, what's going on?"

"What's in the document? Is it the information of the new member?"

In the face of everyone's questions, Gregory nodded and confirmed, "It's the new member's details."

At that moment, everyone perked up as they all looked at 6 reg ary, asking, "Who is it?"

6 reg ary said in a deep voice, "The new member is called Hareeta Song. She's twenty-one years old this year, and her cultivation is at the early stage of the Heaven Level."

At that moment, all the team members burst into an uproar.

"Early stage of the Heaven Level is too low!"

"What were General Xu and General Liu thinking? Even if they wanted to forcefully add a new member to the team, they should get someone powerful!"

"That's right. What's with this martial

artist at the early stage of the Heaven Level? I looked through those materials. The contestants from several countries have basically all reached the middle stage of the Heaven Level. In that

way, they won't drag us down."

"Mr. Zhao, how could such a person be added to our team?" Everyone looked at Greg ary in confusion.

He took a deep breath before answering, "It's because she's from the real martial arts family, the Song family."
