Chapter 563: Praising Myself
Ji You declared in public... and then started making plans in his mind: The idea of working for himself as a salesperson seems quite feasible. In the future, if he has some insider information or wants to give his friends a backdoor to buy Soul Devices, he can just say it was with the consent of Green Glaze Master.
Even—
He could use the convenience of continuing to work as a salesperson for Green Glaze Master and eventually, when he’s capable of making Middle and High-level Soul Devices, he could open doors for his teachers.
And one more thing!!!
He could continue to use the name of Green Glaze Master.
...
Wow!
The benefits are just too great.
The more Ji You thought about it, the more feasible it seemed. Therefore, he made a bold declaration: "I’ve decided. I’m going to nominate myself right away!"
Upon hearing this, Sheng Qingyan was fuming inside, couldn’t stand it, stamped his feet, and grumbled: "Green Glaze Master would never fancy the likes of you guys, especially you—" pointing at Ji You: "You reek of poverty, it’s obvious that you can’t sell anything."
And then he pointed to Shen Changqing: "Aqing, with your inability to speak coherently, you want to be a salesperson? Don’t scare all the customers away, seriously."
Shen Changqing replied quietly: "I’ll try to practice my eloquence."
Ji You gave Sheng Qingyan a sidelong glance: "Green Glaze Master would never fancy someone like you. Plus, just because I’m poor doesn’t mean I can’t sell things."
Yue Qiyuan interrupted everyone: "Enough, stop arguing. You talk as if you could get the job just by mentioning it. Do you even know Green Glaze Master? Are you familiar with her? The Master doesn’t even know who you are, so stop embarrassing yourselves here."
Sheng Qingyan rolled his eyes and said, "You talk like you don’t want to go..."
Yue Qiyuan honestly nodded in response: "Of course, I also want to be the Master’s salesperson, but it’s not like I can just wish it to happen. As for who among us gets to be one in the future, it’s all down to our abilities."
Ji You confidently said: "When it comes to eloquence, if I’m not the best here, then everyone else is trash. So, in the end, it’s definitely me that the Master will notice."
Yue Qiguang cursed: "When it comes to thick-skinned, if you dare to be second, no one would dare to compete for first."
Yue Qiyuan immediately retorted: "When it comes to bluffing, if you dare to be second, no one would dare to claim first."
Seeing that the others were about to take turns teasing, Ji You quickly raised his hand to interrupt them, saying: "Truth be told, Green Glaze Master and I are actually distant relatives. She’s my second uncle’s third aunt’s step-cousin’s niece’s daughter. If I ask to be her salesperson, she will definitely agree."
Everyone: "..."
Left speechless, they ignored Ji You, the blabbermouth.
Shen Changqing looked at Sheng Qingyan and Chu Jiaojiao, seriously said: "Jiaojiao, Ayan, I have observed and analyzed all the advancing opponents. If Jiaojiao takes the competition seriously, she should be able to compete with Little Shengsheng. But! In this competition, what you should really be wary of is not Little Shengsheng, but—"
Having said that, he suddenly paused and asked: "You know who it is, right?"
Sheng Qingyan responded: "I don’t care, just casually playing is fine."
Shen Changqing: "..."
Feeling somewhat frustrated, he turned to Chu Jiaojiao.
Chu Jiaojiao put down her chopsticks, extremely confident: "I’m not afraid of anyone, I’ll take on one by one, or two at a time if they come in pairs!"
Shen Changqing: "..."
Shen Changqing became even more depressed.
Next to him, Yue Qiyuan couldn’t help but laugh, even tapping on the table, looking at Shen Changqing with a bit of schadenfreude: "Aqing, before the competition, I told you to play it safe. You insisted on using an antique mech, and now, look where it’s gotten you; no chance to enter the finals, just watching others fight. It’s a pity, these two fools are so carefree they can’t understand your mother’s worries."
Shen Changqing shook his head after hearing that: "I don’t regret using the antique mech."
Yue Qiyuan: "..."
Yue Qiyuan felt depressed.
...
Ji You scooped some rice into her mouth, very curious, she asked, "Classmate Shen Changqing, the person you just mentioned we need to pay most attention to, is it the unparalleled expert, the Rag Queen?"
As soon as he heard the words ’Rag Queen’, Yue Qiguang’s hackles raised. He curled his lip and said with disdain, "What unparalleled expert? Daddy here can knock her into outer space with a single punch to absorb radiation!"
Ji You retorted, "Sounds like you’re not the one who was eliminated by her."
Yue Qiguang pursed his lips, looking sullen as he ate his rice, "Next time! Daddy will definitely beat her so bad she’ll be searching for her teeth on the ground."
"A true man doesn’t talk about next time. If you’re capable, beat her so bad she’s searching for her teeth on the ground now," Ji You replied with undisguised contempt.
"Just don’t let daddy find out who she is!" Yue Qiguang clenched his fist and said fiercely.
"Understood." Seeing that Ji You and Yue Qiguang might start an endless argument again, Shen Changqing hurriedly spoke up, first affirming Ji You’s guess, then continued, "I think the most dangerous person here is not Little Shengsheng, but the Rag Queen."
On hearing this, Ji You immediately felt a secret delight.
This feeling of wearing a pseudonym and hearing her friends exaggerate, was just too awesome.
Then.
Ji You asked, "What do you think makes her so dangerous?"
Shen Changqing replied, "Precision control."
A glint flashed in Ji You’s eyes.
Everyone else, including Chu Jiaojiao and Sheng Qingyan, pricked up their ears, listening intently to Shen Changqing’s analysis. Shen Changqing’s research on the Rag Queen was not a first or a second time affair... His advice was actually very referential.
Shen Changqing said earnestly, "I’ve noticed that each time she competes, she improves more than the last in physical strength, spiritual power, especially in the precision control of the mecha, which is the fastest improvement. You all have not studied carefully and probably haven’t noticed. Like this time, being able to break Hero King’s 100,000 points Protective Shield, requires step by step, precise to the millimeter. Otherwise, you wouldn’t be able to break through the shield’s defense. But the amount of Spiritual Silk one can use depends on the Spiritual Silk Cleaning Rate. For her to be this precise, it means her cleaning rate is definitely not less than 50%."
Whoa~
As soon as these words were out, the others were all wide-eyed, "Impossible?"
Just a freshman reaching 50%?
What kind of talent is this?
Ji You blinked innocently, "Shen Changqing, could you have miscalculated? 50% Cleaning Rate, what kind of genius would that require?"
Heh~
I’m actually at 100%!
Talking about talent, I, Ji You, am unmatched under the heavens!
Of course—
All this, my fellow mortals, is beyond your comprehension.
Shen Changqing said seriously, "I did not make a miscalculation."
Ji You then blinked, "Ah!!! So it really is, there actually is such a genius as the Rag Queen in this world!"
Praising myself~
It feels oh so good.
Shen Changqing was a bit perplexed, not understanding why Classmate Ji You suddenly started to so greatly admire the Rag Queen, saying, "This is just my conjecture, which is why I think she’s the most dangerous."
