He asked, and the leaders exchanged glances, hesitating, not knowing how to begin. It was Bai Ye who took the initiative, "Now is the apocalypse, I believe everyone must hold onto hope, the hope to end the apocalypse, to return to peace. So I suggest, why not call it Hope Team, we’re all fighting for the hope in our hearts!"
His words were impactful, and the proposed name pleased everyone; thus, no one objected, not even Fang Yuxin or Fang Yuyang. Originally, when they chose the name "Yongcheng," their intention was to hope for eternal brightness, but since getting to know the Qu Family, especially Qu Qiancheng, the siblings could hardly face the character for "Cheng" anymore. Bai Ye’s suggested name, on the other hand, was quite good: simple and easy to understand.
Consequently, the name of the Mercenary Corps was settled as "Hope Battle Group."
Afterwards, Bai Ye continued without any courtesy, "Now that the Mercenary Corps has a name, let’s select the squad leaders and the deputies next, and at the same time, establish the rules of the Mercenary Corps. I propose that my father, Bai Zhengli, take the position of squad leader. What do you think?"
His tone was blunt, yet the others were in no position to reject his proposal. Their agreement to form a Mercenary Corps was based on the formidable strength of the Bai Family and the Fang Family; thus, they had no objections to Bai Ye’s suggestion. Here, the strongest forces apart from the Bai father and son were the four members of the Fang Family. The Bai father and son commanded over a thousand people; it was clear that none of those present could vie for the squad leader position!
Cao Kun was the first to speak, "I have no objections. With Mr. Bai’s strength and track record, he is indeed qualified to be the squad leader." As he said this, he paused for a moment, quickly glanced at Fang Yuxin and Fang Yuyang, and continued, "Additionally, I have a deputy squad leader candidate in mind. I think Mr. Fang Jintang would be very suitable for the position."
He did not suggest Fang Yuyang or Fang Yuxin, especially with Fang Jintang present, who was also the head of the Fang Group, making him exceedingly suitable for the role of deputy. On this trip to Long Province, if they were to establish a Base, they would definitely need sharp business acumen for its management! Furthermore, Fang Jintang was not just a talent in business; he was also a Third-level Superpower User!
While the others were somewhat surprised, they all echoed the proposals of Bai Ye and Cao Kun. Although Fang Yuyang was also commendable, he was, after all, the biological son of Fang Jintang, and there was no real difference between the two of them as deputy. As for Fang Yuxin, although she was also very capable, none of the leaders sitting there felt she was suitable for the role of deputy.
