The Interstellar Queen of Scavengers

Chapter 1407: Chapter 1407: White Lotus Shen Changqing

Niu Houdao got the video of the match between Shen Sheng and Ji You from Teacher Qi, took a quick glance and then walked back into the tea room with a gloomy face.

”Oh?”

”Old Niu, did you finish watching it?”

”How do you feel?”

Seeing Niu Houdao’s old face drooping, obviously in a terrible mood, many school representatives who either knew him well or disliked his supercilious attitude started teasing him, making Niu Houdao feel even worse.

”Old Niu, don’t be too upset. At least your student Shen Sheng lost gracefully.”

”That’s right. Lost gracefully.”

”Lost with honor.”

”He’s a good kid.”

...

Listening to these jokes, Niu Houdao sat back down silently with a sullen face and then met Hong Jiang’s old face.

Hong Jiang was shaking his leg, sipping a cup of tea leisurely.

Niu Houdao gritted his teeth and cursed: ”What are you looking at? Want me to beat you up?”

”Hey! I’m just looking to see how long your face can droop, hahaha...” Hong Jiang smiled smugly, showing no sign of anger.

Indeed, what’s there for him to get angry about?

On the field, the students from Lanyue Star Military Academy mostly ranked well, won brilliantly and beautifully, boosting Hong Jiang’s spirits; he was secretly pleased and couldn’t be angry!

Moreover, with his thick-skin attitude, he snatched quite a bit of good stuff from the First Army’s Education Center, and won lots of good things through betting.

This time, it’s a huge profit.

Unexpectedly, there’s another surprise for him - his student won against Shen Sheng, the top student from Alliance First Military Academy, the undisputed strongest among their year.

In other words, the title of the current strongest might change hands due to this match - it might switch to Hong Jiang’s student.

Hong Jiang couldn’t be happier.

At this moment, everything looked great to Hong Jiang, even the face of Yang Zhi, the principal of First Army with his dark face, seemed a bit cute?

As for Niu Houdao’s rotten face? Though rotten, it also had its advantages - providing lots of laughter.

Hong Jiang enjoyed his tea, admiring Niu Houdao’s rotten face, just as a camp match concluded.

The match was the final battle between the 9th Camp and 10th Camp.

The winner was the 9th Camp.

Notable students from the two camps included Shen Changqing, Xie Sibei, Wu Jingyue, and Wan Yuan from the 9th, and Lance, Wei Xiaoxiong, Jiang Qizhi, and Chen Yuan from the 10th.

The commander of the 9th Camp was Wu Jingyue from the First Army, whom the teachers deemed completely incapable of comparing in strategy and intellect with other promising students.

So the victory of the 9th Camp was not due to Wu Jingyue, but rather another highly notable player - Shen Changqing.

Lacking any test scores, Shen Changqing thus got an initial position extremely disadvantageous to him.

His initial role was merely a soldier, one who could only wield a military shovel, obliged to follow orders from above, with disobedience potentially leading to negative points.

The situation very unfavorable.

But!

Shen Changqing was very composed, not giving up despite his predicament, instead actively -

Deceiving.

Ahem...

How did he deceive?

This is another story that even after endless explanations cannot be fully conveyed.

In short, due to General Shen Chi, Shen Changqing was the only contestant from both 9th and 10th Camps with an aura of identity, his face sculpted like a clone of General Shen Chi, seen in the field as a walking cheat.

This identity naturally gained him trust and respect from many.

And Shen Changqing was no spoiled brat; to the contrary, he was humble, generous, and composed, handling everything in an orderly fashion; he didn’t need much persuasion, with just a slight motion, many students were willing to follow him.

So -

Even when Shen Changqing repeatedly insisted that he just wanted to be a soldier and had no plans to do anything, the squad leader of his squad actively listened to his instructions.

Then.

It was the team members.

It was the squad leader.

...

With his naturally innocent face, looking like it wouldn’t lie, Shen Changqing gathered a sizeable group, soon directly splitting off a large set of Commander Wu Jingyue’s authority.

The key was that he expressed to Wu Jingyue that he had no intention of seizing command, simply striving to compete well and aim for victory.

Thus -

More people chose to follow Shen Changqing’s command.

Wu Jingyue, the rightful commander, was nearly choking on his rage! In his view, Shen Changqing was simply a super large White Lotus.

The kind that acts innocently and harmlessly while being a cunning White Lotus, a green tea personality!

With over 90% of the 9th Camp willing to listen to Shen Changqing, who outwardly showed no sign of usurping power, Wu Jingyue couldn’t openly act against Shen Changqing, instead needing to uphold him high while in the end, Wu Jingyue, the rightful commander, had to follow the orders of a mere soldier.

If Wu Jingyue displayed any unwillingness, Shen Changqing would show a look of disappointment and sadness, but still claiming respect for the commander, leaving the entire 9th Camp furious, with many speaking out for Shen Changqing, stating that any slight against Shen Changqing from Wu Jingyue would lead to collective rebellion, dropping out en masse!

At this moment, Shen Changqing ’endurably bore the burden’ persuading everyone to focus on the bigger picture and avoid being emotional.

Wu Jingyue was practically gone mad.

Wu Jingyue even wanted to confront Shen Changqing directly, knocking him out of the competition, but Shen Changqing, adept in Lian Language, was also a top-notch skilled expert, Wu Jingyue couldn’t win.

Wu Jingyue could only endure.

Endure till the end, winning.

Not the victory led to by Commander Wu Jingyue but by Soldier Shen Changqing.

The entire 9th Camp, because of Shen ’White Lotus’ Changqing’s outstanding methods, he directly usurped Commander Wu Jingyue without bloodshed, seizing the command of the 9th Camp.

...

Having won the camp battle, amid the compliments of his teammates, Shen Changqing still displayed an utterly public-spirited and fearless White Lotus image, without a hint of exposure.

Witnessing this whole scene, the school representatives from the education center fell silent.
