The Interstellar Queen of Scavengers

Chapter 1108: Chapter 1108: Alternate Candidates

Ji You and the other students felt somewhat speechless after hearing Liu Fufeng’s answer.

In the elimination area, a student couldn’t help but stand up and loudly protest: ”Teacher, it seems like Student Liu Fufeng won by doing nothing, isn’t that against the rules?” He didn’t move at all, unlike Chu Jiaojiao who carved out territory with her strength, nor did he cleverly utilize rules and the environment like Ji You to claim victory, Yue Qiguang, Yue Qiyuan, Shen Changqing, Sheng Qingyan...

Among the 9 victors on stage, who didn’t sweat to achieve their success?

Liu Fufeng’s entry into the top 9 surprised everyone and also made them quite displeased.

Teacher Mu Jianling had mentioned earlier that the 10 victorious students would represent the Lanyue Star Military Academy in the interscholastic league!

Interscholastic league!!!

This is a competition across the entire Alliance, which encompasses 6 star systems, millions of planets, and countless schools... It’s a grand event and a significant occasion for the Lanyue Star Military Academy.

With students like Chu Jiaojiao and Shen Changqing, whose strength is widely recognized, representing the school, the students from the 131st Combat Department feel relatively assured because their skills are acknowledged.

But——

What does Liu Fufeng have?

Lucky dog luck?

So, does the school’s honor depend on whether his dog luck holds up?

Once the first student raised doubts, others quickly chimed in, saying: ”Teacher, I just checked the training room records, and discovered that Student Liu Fufeng didn’t move at all. Did he really accept the challenge? His victory doesn’t seem to comply with the rules, right?”

”I looked too, and found he really didn’t stand up to fight anyone.”

”He just moved his fingers a few times.”

”He drew circles.”

”Ahem... there are many ghost talismans on the floor...”

Listening to the students’ discussions and protests, Mu Jianling’s eyebrows didn’t twitch; instead, she faintly replied: ”Am I the teacher or are you?”

This calm rebuttal instantly quieted the scene.

Mu Jianling glanced at Liu Fufeng, sitting innocently and quietly in the victor’s seats, then turned to the students in the elimination area and raised an eyebrow while pointing at the quietly and obediently sitting Liu Fufeng, saying: ”Do you really think he managed to sit here due to lucky dog luck?”

The area below fell silent.

Mu Jianling said: ”If you truly believe that, then I think you are not only a bunch of weaklings, but also blind weaklings who have lost the ability to distinguish. In short, you’re just wimpy chickens.”

The students: ”...”

Mu Jianling loudly said: ”His spiritual power can beat all of you!”

The students: ”!!!”

Mu Jianling said: ”A bunch of wimpy chickens.”

The students: ”...”

Ji You noticed that Liu Fufeng, who had been sitting quietly, seemed outwardly calm upon hearing Teacher Mu Jianling reveal his spiritual power, but was internally unsettled. Ji You could tell he seemed a bit restless from the way he shifted his seat, and so Ji You unceremoniously quipped: ”Ever since you dishonestly won by doing nothing, you can no longer hide or conceal!”

”See, your disguise got revealed right?” Ji You cast a sidelong glance at Liu Fufeng, snorted, and said: ”Teacher Mu isn’t one to help you hide your disguise.”

After speaking, Ji You noticed a cool gaze fall upon her head, and quickly sat up straight, saying: ”I didn’t say anything earlier, and even if I did, it was nonsense because I have random nonsense syndrome.”

Mu Jianling ignored Ji You, and also ignored Liu Fufeng, turning instead to the other students in the elimination area, saying: ”Liu Fufeng’s seat was determined by me. Does anyone have a problem with that?”

The scene became extremely quiet.

Mu Jianling said: ”It seems no one has any objections, so——onto the next round!”

The next round?

The students were shocked, another round?

After the extreme training, there was an extreme challenge, and now most students are very exhausted, with quite a few still receiving treatment in the medical room.

Will everyone fight again?

The students in the elimination area looked confused, while a few who guessed something, like Louise, Xuzhou, Zhong Qing, Yu Yi, Penny... their eyes suddenly brightened!

This is——

Indeed, everyone saw Mu Jianling pointing to Ji You, Chu Jiaojiao, and the other 9 people, saying: ”10 people, still missing 1, the last slot is voluntary, chosen from the elimination area.”

Louise, Xuzhou and others clenched their fists.

Then.

Louise loudly asked: ”Teacher, how are we choosing? Self-recommendation or by popular vote? Then I nominate Louise Carter, he’s the strongest here and can surely represent the school and win the championship glory.”

Below.

Instantly, someone joked: ”He has a big face, doesn’t he realize it?”

”He probably doesn’t know.”

”He clearly seems unaware.”

”I have a mask here, should we lend it to him to cover his face?”

...

Louise standing out first wasn’t surprising, everyone merely teased, recognizing Louise’s strength in their minds.

Mu Jianling said indifferently: ”Louise, is on the candidate list, who else?”

As she finished.

Then.

The second person to stand up was Penny.

Penny has always been a very strong and serious student, she abruptly stood up, saying: ”Teacher, me!”

Mu Jianling glanced at her, nodded: ”Alright. Third?”

Third was Yu Yi.

Yu Yi’s abilities are quite prominent in the 131st session, but he boldly challenged Chu Jiaojiao first, who knocked him out in 10 moves. This doesn’t mean he’s weak, rather shows how formidable Chu Jiaojiao is.

Mu Jianling agreed with Yu Yi’s candidate application.

Fourth.

Fifth.

Sixth.

...

The candidate list includes 10 students in total.

The last one to stand up was Xuzhou.

Xuzhou standing out was slightly unexpected because, among the nine hundred plus students of the 131st Combat Department, Xuzhou’s skills are not top-notch, just upper mid-tier.

His enthusiastic stand was surprising for everyone.

Xuzhou looked at Mu Jianling on the podium, with a serious face, saying: ”I nominate Xuzhou, his overall skills are balanced and he’s a strong contender, I believe he can fight alongside Ji You, Chu Jiaojiao and other ten strong students.”

Hearing Xuzhou, the honest and sincere student, actually self-promoting, surprised not only other students but momentarily left Mu Jianling somewhat unprepared, then suddenly the quiet training ground erupted in loud applause:

”Good!” Ji You stood up and clapped vigorously: ”Little Zhouzhou spoke well, Little Zhouzhou is the best! Everybody clap!”

The crowd: ”...”

Xuzhou: ”...”
