Chapter 623: Hatred Fully Secured
Ji You and Sheng Qingyan were shouting for everyone to brace themselves, but they led a herd of Long-haired Pigs to crash wildly into Little Shengsheng and Ma Dashuai’s teams. Caught off guard, both teams were annihilated just like that.
This scene—
In the audience, there was silence for a long time.
After a while,
The audience began shouting:
Audience A: "Holy shit! Can you even do that?"
Audience B: "Shameless!"
Audience C: "Sneaky!"
Audience D: "Heartless!"
...
The audience seats were buzzing, and seeing the enemy teams dead, Ji You was still strolling with a herd of Long-haired Pigs. Sheng Qingyan quickly jumped away, screaming: "I was scared to death, darling! I only had 1 HP left, I’m not playing with you guys anymore..."
After saying that, he directly piloted his Mecha into the sky, clearly not joining the rest anymore.
On this side,
while being chased by a string of Long-haired Pigs, Ji You while running and crying out, "Damn it! Why are these pigs only recognizing me?"
Standing by, Yue Qiguang mercilessly taunted, "Probably because you’re the dumbest?"
"Cough..." Zhang Ye covered his mouth and added, "Actually, maybe because she stinks the most?"
Chu Jiaojiao stood still, clapping hard, "Go Rag Queen! Rag Queen is the best!"
Lance, following behind Jiaojiao, cheered: "Keep it up! Don’t be afraid of difficulties, bravely face it! You’re the best!"
Shen Changqing and Xuzhou, being more decent, didn’t make a peep.
Ji You glared at them and scolded, "What’s with you guys? Still in the mood for watching the fun? Haven’t you seen the system prompt hasn’t come out yet? Either the enemy team isn’t completely dead, or we have to kill these damn pigs!"
This remark woke everyone up.
The enemy team was already dead, but the system had not yet issued the final victory prompt, obviously, because Rag Queen and Little Cutie had brought in a bunch of Long-haired Pigs, and they couldn’t achieve victory until the pigs were annihilated.
Why?
Since ancient times, Star Beasts and humans couldn’t coexist; it was either you die, or I live.
Moreover, Rag Queen’s reminder made sense. If these Long-haired Pigs were all killed off and there was still no prompt, it meant some teams were still lingering. Instantly, teammates who were just watching for fun became alert.
Under intense artillery fire, the herd of Long-haired Pigs was quickly exterminated.
Shen Changqing said, "System hasn’t prompted yet, everyone on alert!"
Fortunately, they didn’t have to hang in suspense for too long; the system announced, "[In this team competition, Little Qing Team wins!]"
The moment the system message came, Shen Changqing, Chu Jiaojiao, Zhang Ye, Yue Qiguang... everyone collapsed on the ground, all pretense gone, except for Ji You and Sheng Qingyan.
Sheng Qingyan found the act embarrassing and not fitting his style as the universe’s number one Little Cutie.
Ji You?
Having won the match, with a smile on her face, suddenly turned towards the audience and said, "Brothers and sisters, we’ve won this tough match and brought you a fantastic game. At this moment, I have only one request."
Audience: "..."
What is she up to now?
Ji You: "Everyone, please chant with me: ’Rag Queen, the strongest in the arena!’"
Audience: "..."
Audience A: "My eyes are burning."
Audience B: "Boring."
Audience C: "Shameless."
Audience D: "Rag Queen, just go home, tell me your address, and I’ll send you some medicine later."
...
After making the audience disgusted, Ji You curled her lips into a grin and merrily went with her teammates to the award podium according to the official guidance of Alliance University.
The members of these 10 finalist teams reappeared at the award ceremony, teams such as Bai Jiu Team, which were eliminated early, had no ranking.
But for teams like Ma Dashuai and Little Shengsheng, which survived till the end and inflicted effective damage on the Flame Beast, the ranking was based on effective damage, with Little Shengsheng Team ranking second and Ma Dashuai’s Team third.
As the first, second, and third prizes were announced, everyone stepped up onto the podium, where rivals eyed each other with envy, especially Ma Dashuai, who glared fiercely at Ji You, his teeth grinding loudly: "Rag Queen, we’ve called each other brothers for so long, yet I don’t even know your actual address? I don’t have much, but I can afford to send you a few hundred bombs."
Ji You: "..."
Ji You smirked with a grin and waved her hand, "Old Ma, it’s all an act, don’t take it seriously, we’re not really brothers."
Ma Dashuai: "..."
Ma Dashuai: "You’re ruthless!"
No sooner had Ma Dashuai left than Ji You felt a burning gaze on her. She looked up and saw Little Shengsheng who, after catching Ji You’s glance, stared at her for several seconds.
Ji You touched her cheek and laughed: "Little Shengsheng, stop staring, I’m not into that."
At this remark, a wave of speechlessness swept across the surroundings.
Ji You secretly rejoiced, thinking she had embarrassed Little Shengsheng enough to not dare speak to her again, but unexpectedly, Little Shengsheng suddenly said, "I’m not into that either."
Ji You: "..."
Successfully gaining some standing back, Little Shengsheng suddenly changed his tone: "I must admit, your team is very strong and truly deserved the championship."
Ji You: "Huh?"
Little Shengsheng suddenly said: "Rag Queen, I hope we can compete again in next year’s offline competition."
Ji You nodded vigorously: "Sure."
Little Shengsheng didn’t linger longer and moved to the second-place podium.
Ji You thought there would be no more twists, but just as she was receiving the trophy, she suddenly felt an intense, gritted gaze from beneath the podium fixed steadfastly on her.
Ji You looked up; the person wasn’t hiding or flinching but was staring straight back at her.
—It was Handsome Young Master.
Not just Handsome Young Master, there were many angry stares from below, all fixed firmly on Ji You, all from members of teams she had intentionally or unintentionally sabotaged.
Ji You raised her hand to her forehead: darn, this is bad, quite a few enemies. Luckily, online competitions use pseudonyms, not real identities, otherwise, I’d really be going bald.
But thinking that all these people were glaring at her alone, Ji You felt somewhat indignant. She glared back at Shen Changqing, Sheng Qingyan, and others, exclaiming, "Why are all their murderous glares focused on me? It’s not like I did all the dirty work alone."
Chu Jiaojiao: "Because, Rag Queen, you’re the craftiest."
Yue Qiguang: "Because you deserve it the most."
Yue Qiyuan: "Because you’re the most shameless."
...
Seeing Rag Queen’s complexion grow worse, Shen Changqing cleared his throat and said, "Probably because you’re the mastermind?"
Ji You: "..."
