The Interstellar Queen of Scavengers

Chapter 839: Chapter 839: Acting Grand Showcase

Noticing Ji You’s gaze, Shen Changqing’s face looked a bit uneasy. He immediately frowned and asked, ”Has something happened? Why didn’t I see anyone?”

Ji You opened her mouth: ”Something happened? Impossible, right?”

As she spoke.

She shouted loudly, ”Hey, hey, hey... Weak chickens, it’s your daddy Ji You coming back, aren’t you going to come out to greet me?”

Zhang Ye scoffed, ”Aren’t you afraid of being beaten to death.”

”Cough, cough...” Ji You cleared her throat and said, ”Just joking around.”

Yue Qiyuan followed behind Ji You and added in a faint tone, ”Joking about being beaten to death.”

Ji You raised her eyebrows and suddenly called out loudly to the surroundings, ”Beat me to death? I survived under an 8th level Sea Iron Beak, killed an 8th level Viper Worm with my own hands, stomped on two 8th level Carrion Vultures... experienced countless 4th and 5th level Star Beasts. I — the king at the Peak of the Universe, who? Who can beat me to death?”

As soon as she finished speaking, the silent camp suddenly had a slight commotion... The commotion wasn’t just in one place; there were faint sounds from the four corners east, south, west, north.

Yue Qiyuan rolled his eyes directly at Ji You, saying, ”Enough. The boasting is too much... The 8th level Viper Worm was killed by frontline warriors, okay? Stop giving yourself undue credit.”

On the spot.

Ji You glared at Yue Qiyuan, defiantly saying, ”I, boasting? I walked the Viper Worm around for a few hours alone, isn’t that enough to boast for a lifetime?”

Shen Changqing whispered, ”But the 8th level Viper Worm wasn’t really killed by you.”

Shen Changqing’s voice was very low, while talking, it was in the usual tone of muttering and complaining, but this small volume very cleverly reached every corner of the camp with the wind.

On a wooden sentry tower, marked by Ji You and the others as ’dangerous’ and must be eliminated in advance, was Jiang Fang, a tall boy about 2 meters 4, with short black hair, bright and spirited eyes, very masculine temperament... Jiang Fang, at this moment, was watching Ji You and her entourage that suddenly barged into the camp with another student. Initially, hearing Ji You boasting, he didn’t believe it, but—

Then, hearing Yue Qiyuan and Shen Changqing’s complaints, Jiang Fang felt a twinge of doubt: really that great?

Jiang Fang was half-believing, half-doubting, and carrying a bit of envy. It turned out that when their group was still playing around on the Agricultural Star with classmates, Ji You, Shen Changqing, Yue Qiyuan, and the others had already gone to the frontline!

The frontline!

It’s the battlefield many Mechanical Warriors aspire to be!

An 8th level Sea Iron Bull?

An 8th level Carrion Vulture?

8...^8 level Viper Worm!!!

Just hearing about it made Jiang Fang’s heart excited and blood boil.

Suddenly—

Jiang Fang frowned, ”Something’s off!”

Teammate asked, ”What’s off?”

Jiang Fang slapped his thigh, ”Ji You’s group number 4444, ten people, why are there only seven?”

The teammate, upon hearing this, also felt it was odd and said, ”Yeah, where are Chu Jiaojiao, Yue Qiguang, Sheng Qingyan?”

Jiang Fang scratched his head, still hadn’t figured it out when suddenly an extreme sense of danger washed over him, oh no! But before Jiang Fang could alert his teammate, an arrow suddenly shot straight toward his chest!

Bang!

Jiang Fang: ”Damn!!!”

Life Value was dropping quickly, almost reaching zero. Jiang Fang grabbed his sniper rifle and fired towards the direction the arrow came from, but before he could pull the trigger, he was suddenly grabbed.

Whoosh—

Another punch hit his chest, and behind him, a female voice sounded, ”Looking for me? I’m here.”

——It was Chu Jiaojiao!

Jiang Fang stared in shock, falling to the ground.

Life Value zeroed.

Dead.

After Chu Jiaojiao dealt with Jiang Fang, Yue Qiguang also took care of Jiang Fang’s teammate. Then, Sheng Qingyan jumped down from a tree in the distance, leaving the lookout tower occupied by Jiang Fang’s team covered with ’corpses.’

Looking at these wide-eyed ’corpses,’ clearly with a look of ’dying with regret,’ Yue Qiguang deliberately let out a strange sound and laughed, ”Wasn’t Jiang Fang’s team supposed to be strong? So weak?”

Chu Jiaojiao rubbed her chin, ”Kind of weak.”

Yue Qiguang rolled up his sleeves and regrettably said, ”Daddy thought he could show off his skills.”

”What’s there to admire about corpses.” Chu Jiaojiao looked at the bodies disdainfully and urged, ”Stop dawdling. Let’s hurry and join the main group.”

Jiang Fang and the corpses: ”...”

Fuming.

Within just under five minutes, Chu Jiaojiao, Yue Qiguang, and Sheng Qingyan had dealt with Jiang Fang’s group. Having gone through these many twists and challenges, both Chu Jiaojiao and Yue Qiguang deeply felt the difference between themselves and other normal students for the first time.

It wasn’t that Jiang Fang and his teammates became weaker, but— they had become stronger!

Jiang Fang, his teammates, and other classmates didn’t change much in strength, perhaps even got stronger. But their group went through the grinding, and their Physical Strength, spiritual power, battlefield adaptability, way of thinking, personal willpower... all soared upwards.

The battlefield—

Indeed, it’s a place that sharpens people and fosters growth.

Chu Jiaojiao and Yue Qiguang both felt some emotion, then they didn’t waste time. Quickly, they headed to Sheng Qingyan’s location, and after joining him, the three swaggered into view:

Sheng Qingyan covered his mouth, yawned, ”What the heck? Why are the poor dead moving so fast? Couldn’t they wait for us?”

Chu Jiaojiao looked at him disdainfully and scolded, ”If it weren’t for you delaying, I’d have returned ages ago! Can’t you walk faster?”

Sheng Qingyan, listening, felt no guilt at all, ”Jiaojiao, you clearly slept in yourself, why blame me?”

Yue Qiguang strode briskly, seemingly ashamed to be with Chu Jiaojiao and Sheng Qingyan. After walking for a while, he was puzzled, ”What’s going on? Why is there nobody in the camp?”

”Mrs. Mu...”

”Cough!”

”Didn’t Teacher Mu say the assessment was over, aren’t the others back yet?” Yue Qiguang stopped, looked around, scratching his head, looking perplexed.

At this time, Sheng Qingyan also stopped and said, ”Yeah... Why is no one here? Didn’t the teacher say to meet with other classmates here, and then return to school together?”

Chu Jiaojiao said, ”It’s impossible everyone went back already, isn’t Teacher Mu still on the frontline and hasn’t returned?”

...

One question after another arose in the hearts of the entire 44 group members. This group, seemingly fearless of attacks or ambushes from other teams... really seemed to have just returned.

Seeing this scene, Yu Yi, who remained silent and vigilant, had a big question mark pop up above his head: ”Did Teacher Mu not return?”
