Chapter 568: Guess Who It Is
Liu Fufeng meticulously completed the whole set of actions. After finishing a cycle, he suddenly asked Ji You, "I’m done scrubbing. Anything else?"
Ji You: "..."
Ji You’s mouth twitched slightly and said, "Um~ This time, reverse it. One circle to the right, one to the left, then three circles to the right, and three to the left..."
Liu Fufeng gratefully smiled and said, "Thank you."
He bowed his head and seriously scrubbed his hands.
Ji You: "..."
[I’m such a good liar, I just found out myself. I wonder, should I start a class on ’Scrubbing Bad Luck’? Let’s set a small goal first: recruit 1000 members?]
Pfft, pfft, pfft~
Ji You hurriedly chased away the wild thoughts in her head.
At this moment, Mu Jianling walked in. She glanced at the students who quickly sat up straight and then said, "The new round of the competition is about to begin. Everyone, quiet down and focus on the match."
Students: "Yes!"
Mu Jianling smiled with a curl of her lips, "In this year’s online competition, our Combat Department performed quite well. Three of you made it to the top ten of the Alliance. I hope you will continue to compete earnestly and showcase our style and level."
Whoosh—
At these words, all the students suddenly widened their eyes: "!!!"
Three people?
That many?
No...
That can’t be, right?
The students couldn’t help but whisper among themselves:
"Who are these three people?"
"I think it’s most likely Chu Jiaojiao, Yue Qiguang, Shen Changqing, or Yue Qiyuan!"
"I guess it’s these few."
"Lou, Lance, Yue Qiyuan, Yue Qiguang, Chu Jiaojiao, Shen Changqing... besides them, who else could it be?"
"It’s not certain though, Lou and Lance are slightly inferior to the likes of Chu Jiaojiao."
"I think Chu Jiaojiao is definitely one of them. But who are the other two?"
...
Ji You listened to the students babbling, shocked that no one mentioned her...
She felt unfairly treated!
What the hell?
It’s one thing for Sheng Qingyan who was lazy and napping on the desk right now, making it understandable if they didn’t guess him...
But!!!
Are all these classmates blind? With a top legend like herself right in front of them, nobody guessed her!!!
Ji You: "Ahem..."
She cleared her throat, just about to start canvassing for herself when suddenly—
"Ahem..." Mu Jianling coughed gently, looking a bit uneasy and said, "I misspoke earlier. In our Combat Department, we actually have four students who made it to the finals."
Whoosh—
The whole training room buzzed with noise again! The students were even more shocked!
people!
There were actually four!
"Ahem..." Mu Jianling sternly said, "Quiet, get ready for the match."
But!!!
Who was in the mood to be quiet now? The students gathered together, whispering among themselves:
"It’s certain now. It must be Chu Jiaojiao, Shen Changqing, Yue Qiguang, Yue Qiyuan!"
"I guess these four too!"
"Wow, our batch is awesome~"
...
But Shen Changqing, Yue Qiguang, Yue Qiyuan, and others at the center of the conversation all showed unnatural expressions.
One’s own people know one’s own business.
Yue Qiguang had been eliminated early and didn’t even make it to the top ten of the East District.
Yue Qiyuan also did not make it to the top ten of the East District.
Shen Changqing did make it to the finals, but...
Don’t mention it.
The three of them looked at each other, all with a strange expression on their faces.
Yue Qiguang was the first to lose patience and asked, "Apart from Chu Jiaojiao and Sheng Qingyan, who else is there?"
Shen Changqing shook his head: "It’s not me."
Yue Qiyuan pondered for a moment and then said, "Could it be Lou and Lance?"
Yue Qiguang immediately denied and even glanced at Lou and Lance disdainfully, saying, "If those two idiots could get in, I’d twist my head off and let you kick it like a football!"
Feeling Yue Qiguang’s gaze, Lou and Lance, particularly Lance who was closer and heard him, glared at him and said, "Then you should thank me for magnanimously sparing your head."
Yue Qiguang: "That’s what I said! It couldn’t be them!"
Curious, Lou leaned in, his deep blue eyes staring at Shen Changqing and the others, "Did you really not make it to the finals?"
The three shook their heads.
Lou, surprised, said: "That’s really strange. Who else could it be from our Combat Department? Surely it can’t be Ji You!"
"Cough, cough..." Everyone coughed in unison, clearly choked by the thought.
"Cough..." Lou coughed dryly: "Forget what I just said."
Ji You: "..."
Ji You rolled her eyes and said indignantly, "Why can’t it be me?"
Everyone turned their backs in unison—
Clearly, none of them wanted to believe or accept this reality.
Ji You said irritably: "You’re all blind with your titanium alloy dog eyes! Stop looking down on people! I’m destined to be a king at the World’s Peak. How could a mere online competition stop me?"
Here we go—
Blowing her trumpet again!
Chu Jiaojiao laughed and said, "Ji You, you’re so good looking, you’re definitely going to be the king at World’s Peak—from behind, don’t worry, for the sake of your—face, I will definitely try hard."
Ji You: "..."
Ji You angrily said, "I can’t be bothered talking to you stupid mortals!"
But wait!!!
Something’s not right!
Chu Jiaojiao, Sheng Qingyan, herself, then who is the last one?
At that moment—
The usually quiet Yue Qiyuan suddenly spoke up, saying, "Could it be Yu Yi and Yu Song?"
Yu Yi and Yu Song, not actual brothers but cousins, and the Yu family has always been the right-hand man to Admiral Shen Chi, also a prominent figure in the Fifth Legion!
Although Yu Yi and Yu Song are not exceptionally talented, their strength is not to be underestimated.
Shen Changqing shook his head decisively: "It’s not them."
Being influenced by family ties, Yu Yi and Yu Song have always had a good relationship with Shen Changqing and are also led by him; if they advanced, they would never hide it from Shen Changqing.
Thinking this, everyone believed it.
"Then... who on earth is it?!" Yue Qiguang grabbed his hair in frustration, mainly because someone in the Combat Department might be even more impressive than him, making him somewhat irritable, and—
There were two of them!
This made Yue Qiguang even more irritable.
Shen Changqing raised his head and looked at the classmates around:
East District finalists: Drunk Lying on the Beauty’s Knee, Little Cutie, Little Shengsheng, Fu Feng, Rag Queen.
First, rule out Drunk Lying on the Beauty’s Knee and Little Cutie!
So—
Among the remaining Little Shengsheng, Fu Feng, Rag Queen, one more from another school must be ruled out.
Who could it be?
Little Shengsheng?
The overall strength is too strong; even Chu Jiaojiao facing Little Shengsheng cannot guarantee a 100% chance of winning.
So, is Little Shengsheng ruled out?
Only leaving behind—
Fu Feng.
Rag Queen.
Could it be one of these two?
Shen Changqing frowned, thinking intensely, his gaze unintentionally sweeping towards Ji You, who was rubbing her hands and muttering.
Could it really be—
Ji You?
