#510 - Chapter 508 Preparing to Become President
"Identify an Esper? Where are we going to find someone like that? We don't even know if there's anyone in our grade."
Qi Jing had never considered finding an Esper with identification abilities as a teammate because he believed he could draw an identification skill himself.
As a must-have identification skill for the protagonist, how could he not draw it?
But he really couldn't draw it.
Previously, he used a month's worth of luck to draw on the identification chip, but only drew a SAO large-scale virtual game.
Later, during the winter vacation, he drew again, but only drew a bunch of high-tech parts and materials, with no skills at all.
It can be said that he had already given up a little.
"But there's no rush for this. After the New Year, we might all be able to use identification machines."
Qi Jing had inquired with Xiao Fifteen before. Since the identification chip can be used to create floor-standing identification machines for weapons, pets, and materials, there must be handheld identification machines, right?
He said that it had indeed been created, but the manufacturing materials for the identification chip were a bit difficult to obtain and could not be sold publicly.
Only when the production volume increases in the future will it be possible.
However, it is estimated that it cannot be used on humans. Again, respect for other people's privacy.
Therefore, if there is no such Esper in the competition, it still depends on intelligence gathering ability and concealment ability, or having your own Esper with identification abilities.
For example, in today's competition, the Eight Virtues lost so quickly because their abilities had already been exposed, coupled with the "first encounter kill" by the Little Emperor and the Shepherd.
"There is indeed an Esper with identification abilities in the auxiliary branch next door."
Today, Song Jiang and Miao Kui watched many matches on the playground and also watched a lot online. They learned about many Espers and broadened their horizons.
In addition to the Espers who appeared in the previous freshman competition, there were many who had never appeared before.
"I heard that she's a great beauty."
Yan Cheng had also heard about it in the Loving Home.
"Captain Qi, shouldn't you try to win her over? Let her join our team."
"All you ever think about is beauties. Would she even want to join our team?"
Qi Jing didn't think he could win her over.
As the only Esper with identification abilities in this class, many people must be eyeing her, and he doesn't even know her, so how could he succeed?
"But you're the Newcomer King! Who would dare disobey your invitation?"
"Disobey my ass, what club is she in?"
Qi Jing was indeed tempted to ask and try after hearing what they said.
If she came, wouldn't they be able to carry out targeted operations against the enemy in the future?
It could be very useful in the grade competition, the academy competition, and the global competition.
The club war was created for everyone to form teams, and it's normal for him, the Newcomer King, to invite her. Whether it succeeds or not is another matter, but he has to try.
But judging from today's banquet, their Welfare Club is about to lose its reputation, so they have to be careful not to snatch her away and leave a bad impression.
He has to find out which club she's in.
"It seems to be the largest club in our academy, the Handsome Men's Club."
Song Jiang flipped through the comments below the video and said:
"Their Handsome Men's Club played against the Handsome Guys' Club today and won a great victory."
"The Handsome Men's Club challenged the Handsome Guys' Club? Holy crap."
Although the club war is a random challenge for the sake of winning in the later stages, on the first day, everyone often chooses some clubs that have some relationship or grievances with each other on weekdays.
The example of the Virtue Club challenging the Weather Control Club today for the sake of club victory points is a minority. Others either communicate with clubs that have a good relationship or just can't stand each other.
The Handsome Men's Club looks down on the Handsome Guys' Club very much because, in their eyes, no one can call themselves handsome in front of Yu Ding of the Handsome Men's Club, especially since the slogan of the Handsome Guys' Club is "The Most Handsome in the World".
Song Jiang continued:
"The Handsome Men's Club directly sent out six third-year seniors today, forcefully suppressing the Handsome Guys' Club. The scene was very exciting."
"Good heavens, what a good heavens, Yu Old Bro's fans are too terrifying."
Is this the power of fans?
Qi Jing suddenly felt a little tempted to accept Yu Ding's invitation and become a star?
Forget it, forget it, I'm not cut out for that.
"Next time when we meet the Handsome Men's Club, I'll go and invite her to try."
As the captain, he has to go in person to recruit people.
He can be lazy usually, but this kind of big thing won't do.
"Have you received the challenge information for tomorrow?"
Song Jiang shook his head:
"I haven't."
Their small club won't take the initiative to challenge, and not many people care about it.
Yan Cheng said:
"Our Loving Home has been challenged. The opponent is the Firm Martial Club."
"Okay, then we'll fight the Firm Martial Club tomorrow too."
"I'm not playing tomorrow. Why are you fighting them?"
"Who cares if you play or not? I'm not trying to avenge you. I just heard the name of this club."
This is Qi Jing's random selection method: fight whichever club he hears about.
Since no one is challenging Song Jiang, then fight the club that is challenging Yan Cheng.
"You really think you're the boss of the Welfare Club, huh? You can fight whichever club you want?"
"Of course, I'm the next president."
At today's dinner, they also discussed the issue of the next president of the Welfare Club.
The current president, Qian Duoduo, is in his senior year and is often on missions, so he doesn't care much about things anymore. He should step down when he returns from this mission.
And choosing a new president has become a problem.
The Welfare Club's president selection doesn't rely on seniority or strength, but on who can bring more benefits to everyone.
Qian Duoduo became the president during his freshman year by giving everyone money.
And Qi Jing can currently bring a lot of attention and fame to the Welfare Club, and can also give everyone a lot of props, which can be said to be full of benefits. No one would disagree even if he didn't want to be.
"What? You're going to be the president as soon as you join? Awesome."
Yan Cheng was very shocked.
He is still an unranked member of the Loving Home.
Song Jiang comforted:
"It's okay, I don't have any positions either."
"With only three members in your club, there's no need to have any positions, right?" Yan Cheng glanced at him with drooping eyes.
Song Jiang smiled and said: "Nonsense, we also have people in other campuses. There are six people in total!"
"So the C campus accounts for three, huh?"
"No, the A campus and the C campus each account for three."
"Good heavens."
Knowing that they were sparsely populated, I didn't expect them to be so sparse.
They can't even fill up all seven campuses and can only operate in two campuses.
Song Jiang sighed:
"If we weren't a club under the Meteorological Bureau, we would have disbanded a long time ago."
Yan Cheng raised his chin: "We also have donation organizations behind us."
"Uh, we have veterans from the Qing Dynasty."
Because everyone has to become stronger through commissions, the requests of the Welfare Club members, once posted, will not be withdrawn.
Therefore, their club group still preserves most of the members who have joined the club. Once they receive a commission, they will return to be slaves, no matter how many years they have graduated.
Some will even commission existing members to get "materials" for them in the club war.
For example, someone in the group is talking about this matter now.
Hundred-Eyed Old Demon: [Can the junior brothers and sisters bring me a few eyeballs tomorrow? We're all family, I can exchange them for your requests]
Spinning Top Boy: [Who's playing tomorrow?]
Qi Jing: [I'm playing in the doubles or triples, but I can't bring myself to do it]
Hugging Bear: [It's normal to not be able to do it if you haven't taken a slaughter class]
Tooth Fairy: [I'll go up and get teeth tomorrow, and get an eye on the side]
Why does this group feel so much like an organ trafficking organization?
