The Interstellar Queen of Scavengers

Chapter 1168: Chapter 1168: Annoying

”Damn!”

”Don’t talk about me right in front of my face.”

”Short?”

”So what if I’m short? Did I eat your rice?”

”Does being short have anything to do with being weak?”

”I can punch a bull to death, do you believe it?”

...

Ji You listened to the heated discussions around her, looking disgruntled. She tried hard to jump forward, up, backward... but still couldn’t jump out of the ’cage’ formed by the bodies of Chu Jiaojiao, Shen Changqing, Sheng Qingyan... Ji You was fuming: ”Damn it, let me go! Let me out! Let me go curse them to death.”

Sheng Qingyan looked at Ji You disdainfully and said, ”You poor dead, aren’t you afraid of being beaten to death?”

Ji You raised her voice: ”Who am I afraid of?”

Sheng Qingyan pouted, ”Go put yourself in danger by yourself; don’t drag others with you.”

Ji You raised her voice even louder: ”Put myself in danger? Rest assured, even if I’m going down, I’m dragging you with me!”

Sheng Qingyan was speechless for a moment, then couldn’t help but step back, creating a gap. Ji You seized the opportunity to slip out, but suddenly a pair of hands appeared behind her and grabbed her clothes:

”Ji You...” Shen Changqing grabbed the hem of Ji You’s clothes, not daring to let go, and softly advised, ”Everyone here is an opponent, let’s keep a low profile and not attract too much attention for now.”

”Sneaky devel...” opment.

”Ahem ahem...” Shen Changqing cleared his throat and said sternly, ”Low profile, low profile, low profile...”

Yue Qiyuan glanced at Ji You disdainfully and said, ”We’re here to compete, not chit-chat.”

Yue Qiguang commented, ”Those who talk the loudest are often the weakest.”

Ji You: ”...”

Ji You glanced sideways at Yue Qiguang and said, ”Isn’t talking loudly a sign of ability? Don’t underestimate talking skills; some are so powerful that you can’t imagine or use them.”

Beside her, Lou couldn’t help but say a fair word for Yue Qiguang, ”Ji You, you just told He Nu that talking doesn’t work.”

Ji You laughed, ”Of course, it doesn’t work for you, but for me, it works just fine.”

Lou: ”...”

Lou was speechless.

Then—

Ji You looked down and her gaze fixed on Shen Changqing’s hand that was clutching her hem: ”Little Qing, take your little hand away; even if you act cute, I still have no candy for you.”

Shen Changqing’s face instantly flushed red... like a hot potato, he quickly let go.

Ji You laughed, ”See—this is what talking skills can do.”

Lou, Lance... the whole team: ”...”

Ji You chuckled and said, ”Sometimes people need to know how to change course and not be so stubborn. See, I just said a few words, and Shen Changqing got flustered? So, arguing doesn’t always mean fighting with others.”

Everyone: ”...”

There was another speechless silence.

But, with Chu Jiaojiao, Shen Changqing... leading nine people, they still tightly surrounded Ji You, not daring to let her out to argue with others. As everyone consciously minimized their presence, following a heated discussion, the focus of topics quickly shifted to other characters in the registration hall. Everyone couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief, finally not having to worry about being a target the moment they stepped into the arena.

After He Nu’s group left, the expressions on the faces of Wei Xiaoxiong, Li Jiu, Wu Jingyue, and others from the First Military Academy were not as calm and composed as expected. In fact, Wei Xiaoxiong and the others were fuming inside.

The First Military Academy was very strong, extremely strong.

But!

To ensure the Second Years this year can get enough entry tickets, the First Military Academy didn’t have enough confidence to say they could certainly achieve it.

The most important is—

Other people are other people; they don’t care. Wei Xiaoxiong, Li Jiu, Wu Jingyue... they want to ensure they can get entry tickets.

Therefore, as competitors, Wei Xiaoxiong, Li Jiu, etc., didn’t discuss it with the school leadership beforehand. After some private deliberation, they decided to try their own ways, primarily exerting pressure on students from other schools in terms of momentum. So, they chose the registration hall, mainly aiming to show off when there were the most students from other schools present and unfamiliar with each other, applying a bit of psychological pressure on the external school students. In this way, once really encountering on the battlefield, people from the First Military Academy can gain a psychological advantage.

Was Li Jiu really reckless?

Really arrogant and pretentious?

Representing the school, those who are arrogant or pretentious must have enough capital. Besides, he is not merely arrogant. He stood out to ridicule and mock He Nu’s group primarily to compel He Nu to make a move, naturally leading out Wei Xiaoxiong.

Wei Xiaoxiong’s spiritual power is very strong, second only to Shen Sheng in the entire First Military Academy. Ideally, the most suitable to show off should be Shen Sheng, but Shen Sheng is a non-human being and extremely unsociable—simply not on the same wavelength as Wei Xiaoxiong and others. Wei Xiaoxiong couldn’t persuade her to help him; he had to take the stage himself.

Choosing this newly established, yet unknown school on the Akya Agricultural Planet to mock was a unanimous agreement by Wei Xiaoxiong, Li Jiu, and others after careful selection.

The whole group, except He Nu, are very inept, and they are 9 girls, there was no better material to choose from. If not this, then what?

Initially, the plan worked well.

But!

Ahem ahem...

The ending slightly exceeded expectations; Wei Xiaoxiong and others didn’t anticipate someone would show up halfway to deliver a motivational course to He Nu and others, ruining their plan on the spot.

Judging from the comments on-site, the powerful image they intended to create beforehand got subtly undermined.

Wei Xiaoxiong left the registration hall with a smile on his face, gracefully, but once outside, his face suddenly darkened: ”Who is that shorty? What skill does she actually have?”

Wei Xiaoxiong finished speaking and noticed the atmosphere around him tense. He was confused and met Wu Jingyue and Li Jiu’s gazes in surprise, ”What? Is there a problem?”

”No...”

”It’s just...” Li Jiu hesitated slightly but finally said, ”I just recalled and checked with Ayue, we know who that girl is.”

Wei Xiaoxiong: ”Who?”

”Ahem ahem...” Wu Jingyue said, ”Her name is Ji You.”

Wei Xiaoxiong: ”Huh???”

Li Jiu said, ”The famous 2B.”

At this, Wei Xiaoxiong suddenly realized, ”It’s her!”

Wu Jingyue and Li Jiu said, ”It’s her.”

”Damn!” Wei Xiaoxiong cursed angrily, ”Why is this 2B so annoying?”
