The Squads which Yue Han and Xiong Da had with them were the revamped version as introduced by Bear Cub One. Instead of having three individual squad members who provided versatility for the individual, it was simultaneously a slight downgrade but also quite the upgrade.

Xiong Da, Yue Han and a few other Pandawans had been bestowed with five squad members and decided to take it upon themselves to lead the raid. Fortunately, Xiong Da recently became Grade 5 after finding the time to spend some intense training in Jin's dungeon since the number of squadmates was now fixed to the cultivation level.

After the Hungry Hippo's last test, Jin had evaluated the feedback after receiving a series of analytical reports from the System which Jin shuddered upon opening the PDFs.

He tweaked the AI helper's weapons, and they would have default weapons which were also pegged to what the cultivators had been using. Should they change weapons, the default weapons would be changed as well.

As Grade 5 cultivators, it meant that the Pandawans basically had five more identical masked cultivators that were similar to them. In terms of strength and other attributes, the System decided to bestow those AIs half the original stats of the cultivator leading them. Thus, it made the ones that Xiong Da and Yue Han used earlier against Prince Stolas and his guards at a power level of Grade 2 Peaks.

However, that di
