The Interstellar Queen of Scavengers

Chapter 1068: Chapter 1068: Feeding the Pigs

Ji You tapped on the plate and gave the command!

”Oink oink~”

”Oink oink~”

”Oink oink~”

...

A hundred thousand pigs surged forward!

Oh, well...

Not that many, only 99 Long-Mouthed Pigs. These pigs, with their long mouths, white tender skin, and plump round bodies, rushed over and instantly filled the trough.

Squeal~

Squeal~

Squeal~

They were jostling and shoving each other, eager for the feed. The smell inside the pigsty was quite unpleasant, so Ji You pinched her nose, holding a stick, and scolded a white pig pushing others away: ”Ni Ni, if you bully the others again, I’ll smack you down with one slap.”

Wow~

Ji You snapped her whip at a pig trampling the trough, frowning: ”Xiao Ming, behave! Look at you, being all over the place. You don’t eat? Well, others do!”

”Ah Huang, get your feet out! You’ve got no hygiene at all—who’s going to eat after you stomp on it?”

”Tiantian, ease up! Stop wagging your tail while eating; you’re a pig, not a cow!”

...

Following Ji You, Chu Jiaojiao, Sheng Qingyan, Yue Qiguang, Yue Qiyuan, and Shen Changqing became increasingly speechless.

Yue Qiguang said: ”4444, wow, you actually recognize so many pigs?”

Ji You bent down and poured some more feed in, saying, ”Whether they recognize me doesn’t matter, because I don’t remember them anyway.”

”...” Yue Qiguang said speechlessly, ”You don’t remember, but you shout at them with such seriousness?”

”Ahem...” Ji You straightened her face and said, ”I made up the names on the spot, so what?”

Yue Qiguang ruffled his hair, rolling his eyes, ”Dad shouldn’t have listened to your nonsense.”

Beside Yue Qiguang, Yue Qiyuan suddenly asked, ”4444, are you really not planning to accept the challenge outside the school gate?”

Chu Jiaojiao, Shen Changqing, and Sheng Qingyan were a bit curious. It was also strange why Ji You wouldn’t accept it immediately.

Ji You grabbed a handful of feather darts and occasionally smacked an unruly white pig, saying, ”I do want to accept, but I can’t just rush to face anyone, right? What about my dignity?”

Yue Qiguang kept rolling his eyes: ”So, coming out here to feed pigs gives you dignity now?”

”Ahem...” Ji You was stumped for words, glaring fiercely at Yue Qiguang, saying, ”What’s undignified about pig farming? These 99 pigs at our school were actually borrowed from the Agricultural College next door!”

”Each one costs 66,000 credit points in rent; tell me that’s not dignity?”

”Besides—” Ji You squinted her eyes, saying, ”If there’s any embarrassment, it wouldn’t be me.”

She wasn’t there to make jokes or act silly. Her presence at the pig farm was to set a threshold for future challengers.

Pigs?

They have always been derogatory.

Using pigs as a shield, a challenger with a fragile ego and high pride would surely feel belittled, insulted, or ignored...

Thus, naturally filtering out those who just follow the crowd or join in for fun.

Who’s left?

Do they still want to challenge me?

Well, they’ll have to face that psychological hurdle first.

**

Meanwhile, hearing the slightly provocative words of the girl, He Nu’s eyelids twitched in anger.

Then.

As everyone thought he might turn away in anger, He Nu suddenly stepped forward, heading into the school.

Oh?

Seeing this, the crowd immediately followed with a clamor.

—This. The enemy isn’t scared off!

The girl spreading the word quickly caught up, eager to see how Senior Ji You would respond.

When He Nu and his large entourage surged into the pig farm, the overwhelming stench of pig manure assaulted their senses.

He Nu paused, almost ready to turn back and leave.

He held back tightly, then shouted loudly: ”Ji You, you must come out and face the challenge.”

The other students were almost knocked out by the smell, but pinched their noses in determination, enduring to watch this promising confrontation.

With He Nu’s loud proclamation, Ji You’s figure finally made a belated appearance.

Upon appearing, Ji You first washed her hands, then changed her apron and shoes. In front of everyone, she looked at He Nu and said, ”Sorry, that’s just how it is with pig farming. So much work, can’t really step away. What do you need me for?”

He Nu glanced at the nearby piles of pig manure, the source of the smell...

This—

It must have been deliberately placed there.

He Nu’s face darkened and he said, ”I—He Nu from the Akaya Star Military Academy, challenge you now.”

As he finished speaking, Ji You’s face sank.

All around, watching students could instantly see the displeasure from her expression.

Ji You said, ”I don’t intend to accept. I’m just a pig farmer after all.”

Whoa—

Her words were like a bomb going off, as the surrounding students nearly jumped up in fury:

”Damn!”

”She really isn’t accepting it.”

”Is she really scared?”

”How did Senior Ji You’s rank come about? Was her ability exaggerated?”

”He Nu is very strong! Being afraid is normal.”

”Does being afraid mean no contest?”

”Where’s the spirit of courageously striving forward?”

”...”

Ji You’s brief silence left time for the students to chatter away.

At this moment, suddenly, He Nu leapt up, swinging his hammer at Ji You.

Ji You’s eyes slightly narrowed—

A gust of wind rushed over, so fast it was unnoticeable, with the hammer closing in instantly!

Ji You remained motionless, and as the hammer was about to hit her forehead, she moved slightly aside, uncovering a row of shelves behind her full of pig feed.

Bang!

He Nu’s swing, charged with all energies, ferocious and mighty, couldn’t retract in time, hitting the row of shelves instead.

”Thud thud thud...”

”Alert! Alert! Alert! Someone is maliciously damaging pig farming equipment!”

With the alarm blaring, Ji You smiled at him: ”Buddy, take it easy. You break anything here, you’re compensating at full price.”

”...” The grand attack He Nu had prepared, deflated rapidly.

Thwarted before starting!

He Nu gritted his teeth: ”Don’t hide here. Let’s go to the arena and have a good fight!”

Ji You, holding a pig feed ladle, shook her head and said, ”No! I’m not done with my work yet.”

After saying so, Ji You bent down again and poured a ladle of pig feed into the pen of a large white pig.

Disdain!

This was absolute disdain! Absolute contempt!

He Nu burst out again, swinging his hammer for a new round of attacks!

Whoosh~

The terrifying pressure swept in!

Ji You remained bent down, as if completely unaware. Just as the hammer was about to fall, she raised her hand, using the ladle to block it!

At the same time, Ji You’s eyes darkened: ”I really just want to peacefully raise some pigs.”
