The Interstellar Queen of Scavengers

Chapter 1207: Chapter 1207: Time to Fight?

On the tournament field, the originally clear sky suddenly began to turn overcast, as one by one, the white clouds were blown away, gradually covering the sky with a layer of shadow.

He Yu suddenly lifted her foot, walked up to Ji You, and said, ”Class President, looking at the weather, it seems it’s going to rain, we are—”

She suddenly curled a finger slightly, making an almost imperceptible ’kill’ gesture, inquiring Ji You’s intention.

Ji You glanced at her and said, ”In this kind of weather, don’t worry, it’s just thunder without much rain, won’t become a major issue. Don’t overthink, just follow me. As long as I have something to eat, you won’t go hungry.”

”The competition hasn’t officially started yet. How to proceed will depend on the specific rules from the organizers, then we’ll plan accordingly.” Ji You slightly chastised, then reassured, ”Don’t worry, we already have our strategy. We’ll discuss again when Wang Qiang and Zhang Jian return.”

When it came to the names Wang Qiang, Zhang Jian, Ji You almost accidentally called them by their real names. Fortunately, she corrected herself in time, keeping all undercover.

This must be taken as a lesson.

Thinking of this, Ji You cleared her throat and said, ”Listen, if we haven’t received instructions from above in 30 minutes, then we need to prepare for battle.”

”Battle?” Xia Bingbing was the first to be shocked: ”In 30 minutes? With whom?”

He Yu looked at Xia Bingbing’s naive expression and almost blurted out: ”With you guys.”

It’s about to start!

This time, I must grab a point, so the target is—pick Xia Bingbing, this naive sweet girl!

He Yu straightened her face, striving to calm the turmoil in her heart.

The next second.

Ji You said, ”Our enemy is right in front of us.”

He Yu: ”...”

He Yu thought she heard wrong. Self-Destruction?

Exposing ourselves?

Both Liu Jia and Wang Xin almost wanted to clear their ears, thinking maybe it was just the strong wind that made them hear wrong.

While not far from Liu Jia, enemy member Yu Cheng couldn’t help but ask, ”Where?”

The new male and female enemy team members were also startled by Ji You’s abrupt comment, feeling a chill as if standing barefoot on the ashes of those peculiar terrains beneath them.

It’s spine-chilling.

The new female member asked, ”Class President, do you mean our enemy is close? How is that possible? Our area here is quite flat, surrounded by mountains. I walked quite a distance just now without seeing a soul.”

Everyone looked up and stared at Ji You.

Under their watchful eyes, Ji You said lightly, ”Do you think those who can step onto the tournament field are ordinary people? Just set foot on the battlefield and you think what you see is everything?”

He Yu’s heart skipped a beat.

Liu Jia’s eyelids twitched.

Wang Xin’s heart trembled.

The three of them almost wanted to spit at Ji You—

This guy, is she afraid the enemy doesn’t know? Couldn’t she just reveal herself on purpose?

He Yu, with her heart on edge, looked towards the girl. After hearing Ji You’s words, the girl pursed her lips slightly, knowing the class president was right.

If she judged everything based on her initial observations and relaxed, she might end up eliminated.

But—

Where is the enemy hiding?

The girl couldn’t figure it out.

At this moment, the new male member said, ”After I released my spiritual power, I scanned within a 1000-meter radius, and found nothing unusual.”

Ji You raised an eyebrow, ”Your spiritual power can reach 1000 meters?”

The male member replied, ”Yes, under normal circumstances, it’s around 800-900 meters, 1000 meters is my limit.” The so-called limit means if spiritual power is forced to 1000 meters, it would be completely drained, and requires rest to recover.

Ji You smiled, ”Not bad.”

After a slight pause, Ji You said, ”Then check again now to see if there’s anything unusual within 1000 meters, pay special attention to any sudden changes in the environment around, even if it’s a small scallion or a stone, check everything.”

He Yu stood up proactively and said to Ji You, ”Report to the class president, I apply to assist him.” He Yu’s spiritual power detection range is 700 meters, stable at that range. Although slightly less than the new male member, she didn’t feel inferior and wanted to learn and communicate with other excellent spiritual talents...

Ji You said, ”Approved.”

He Yu was so happy she jumped next to the male member, saying, ”Why don’t we investigate together, then integrate what we found to see if there are omissions or other issues.”

The male member asked, ”Classmate, what’s your Spiritual Level?”

He Yu said, ”A-level.”

—Enough to kill you.

The male member laughed, ”Sure, let’s work together.”

—Turns out, not too strong.

As He Yu and the male member began their action, He Yu’s spiritual power just released and felt a somewhat familiar aura, emanating from behind the slope, across the river.

Across the river?

Which means—against expectations, Cheng Haoyue returned first.

The male member, in the midst of using spiritual power to probe, seemed to have also noticed Cheng Haoyue, frowning slightly as he said, ”Is that a spy from the opposite side?”

He Yu shook her head and said, ”...No, it’s our teammate.”

That’s right.

My teammate, also your enemy.

The male member, after hearing, seemed slightly relieved, continuing his probe. He Yu, not wanting to be outdone, increased her spiritual power output. Both spiritual talents engaged in effortful exchanges and comparison. Soon, the male member’s range reached 800 meters, 850 meters, 900 meters...

He Yu reached her real level of 700 meters.

Then.

When He Yu considered pushing herself further, Ji You beside her scolded, ”What are you doing? I asked for exploration, not a competition between you.”

Taking advantage of the situation, He Yu retracted her spiritual power, feeling no exhaustion during it.

In contrast, the male member’s tall body swayed slightly, forehead beaded with sweat, breathing heavily, indicating the spiritual power consumption was significant and difficult to recover shortly.

He Yu’s eyes brightened: This one is worn out, so it’s my points now.

The fight is about to start.

Finally, I can take down a few of these people!

The waiting process was indeed too torturous.

As He Yu thought, she kept waiting for Ji You’s signal. At this moment, she noticed someone running briskly towards them. A closer look revealed it was Cheng Haoyue.

Surprisingly, it wasn’t He Nu!

He Nu’s location is closer than Cheng Haoyue’s, which means He Nu hasn’t returned, implying—
