C88 Part1

Translated by An Edited by An

After the second round of the competition, the participants who made it to the third round were not only the winning 46 teams from the previous round but also Female Warrior Xiao Yuan’s team, which had automatically qualified. So, this time it was another odd number, 47 again. Consequently, another team would automatically qualify for this round without a fight.

After drawing the lots, the good luck this time unexpectedly fell on Han City’s Zong Ping.

Looking at her complacent face and sensing the provocation in her gaze, Yang QiQi touched her nose and complained: ‘How is the result of my words so quick and effective ah?! Lord Beast God, I wished her good luck just for the sake of saying something yesterday. How could you take it so seriously ah? I’m not an Emperor, but I feel like I have a “ golden mouth speaking jade words “, dammit! ‘

After the second round, there were basically no weak participants left amongst the current eligible teams. Hence, the probability of encounters between two powerful teams was considerably higher.

For example, Female Warrior Xue Yue, the top-ranked Female Warrior of QiuShui City ranking fifth in the list, was unlucky enough to be allotted against the popular Female Warrior Xiao Yuan. That was simply a match with no sense of suspense ah. The other participants present couldn’t help feeling sorry for her dark prospects. But… well, to be honest, in their hearts, they were all cheering for not running into Xiao Yuan for this round: ‘Thank you, Beast God! Thank you, heavens! Thank you for your selfless sacrifice, Female Warrior Xue Yue!’

For another example, the second-ranked LanJing City’s Female Warrior Li Yuan and first-ranked Cang City’s Female Warrior ZiZi were allotted against each other this round. That would be a fierce battle ah!

Furthermore, the seventh-ranked Nu City seemed to have been infected by WanQing City’s bad luck. Two of their own females, Female Warrior Wu and Female Warrior Hong Ying were to fight against each other. Therefore, although these two could not be compared with the prior-mentioned two groups in terms of ranking and strength, they had also aroused the interest of a lot of people.

…

As for Yang QiQi, who was fighting in her home ground, she was set against the little-known QiaoYa City’s participant, Female Warrior ZhuZhu.

“QiaoYa City ranks 52nd in the upper bound. Female Warrior ZhuZhu, has fire attribute, 6 Guardian Beasts…”

Halfway through Ling Yue’s words, Tu Jin couldn’t help but interject from the side: “Tsk tsk, how did she sneak into the top 47 with the 52nd green rank?”

Ling Yue rolled his eyes: “She didn’t sneak in; she really fought her way up. After seeing the list of winners sent by the Dean yesterday, I also had some doubts. So, I went to Nian JiMo to ask for a video recording of her matches. If she hadn’t come across QiQi today, she would have certainly been considered one of the dark horses of the competition.”

“So strong?” Tu Jin’s eyes widened.

“Compared to the strengths of the previous participants sent by QiaoYa City before, this Female Warrior ZhuZhu is indeed a strong contender. If she hadn’t run into a formidable adversary in the third round now, she could still possibly enter the fourth round. Calling her a dark horse is also based on the historical performance of QiaoYa City. But whatever the case, there is no doubt that QiaoYa City’s ranking will go up this year.”

“You’ve worked hard, Ling Yue.” Yang QiQi stretched out her hand to smooth his hair.

She has always known Ling Yue’s commitment to this team, or to be exact, her.

He has always been a gentle, polite, and modest person with a temperament as bright as the splendor of the moon. But he would roll his sleeve and enter the kitchen to work with oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, and kitchen utensils day in and day out for her. In order to satisfy her appetite, he would rack his brains to come up with delicious recipes. For this reason, he had sacrificed a lot of time that should have been used for training. Yang QiQi was aware of how everything was in the Beast world, which respected strength. As a result, she felt more and more guilty and touched.

Now that he voluntarily undertook the task of researching the basic information of each team, it must have taken up the little period of rest he had left or maybe even his sleeping time.

“So long as it’s beneficial for you, I like doing it. So it’s not hard work.” The corners of Ling Yue’s mouth rose as he smiled lightly. That smile was as light as a spring breeze, hitting straight at Yang QiQi’s heart.

“Fool…” Her gaze was a little bitter. After coming to this other world, she received so much love that her heart felt overwhelmed.

Whether it was the cold-hearted Nian JiMo or the crude and barbaric Zheng Shou, their rough sides were never wielded on her. She was their heart’s treasure; they were reluctant to let her get even the slightest of harm or discomfort. And now, there was this obviously rejected yet steadfastly loyal Ling Yue, giving his all for her in silence. Even Xiang BuChen, the one who had always seemed to be wicked; she seemed to feel his determination to… get her to accept him.

“What kind of lousy allotting is this! D*mn you, do you look down upon laoniang ah? Why does laoniang draw weaklings every time?” As soon as Wa Hu saw the number stopping beside her 011, she looked at the person. Seeing that she was not a seeded player, her face darkened as she pointed at the crystal screen and started cursing in annoyance: “Although Female Warrior Xiao Yuan automatically qualified yesterday, she is going to fight the fifth-ranked QiuShui City’s contestant today. Moreover, Li Yuan is also going to fight against Female Warrior ZiZi. F*ck it, why are all the shrimp soldiers and crab generals getting assigned against laoniang ! Laoniang is not a trash can that no matter what kind of rotten and no good things come to me, I will dispose of… Ahh…..”

Just as Wa Hu started hurling curses, she was directly electrocuted. When the electricity passed from the seat of her chair to her body, regardless of her strength, her body began to twitch and convulse.

A low buzz of whisper arose. Those who were far away stood up and leaned over to look, but those who were sitting close to her distanced themselves, fearing that they would be implicated too.

“First warning issued for attacking this intelligent referee!” The mechanical voice on the crystal screen sounded.

[ Wa Hu: I didn’t attack…

Intelligent referee: Verbal attacks are also considered attacks.]

The electric current was put off, but at this moment, Wa Hu’s face was charred black. Her hair stood on the ends, and smoke could still be seen coming off her head.

“…Just, can’t you give a verbal warning first?” Wa Hu (×﹏×) : ‘What a despicable intelligent referee…’

“Wa Hu, how are you? Are you okay ah?” Mu YouYun and Li Yuan rushed up when they realized that it was safe.

Wa Hu’s whole body was still numb. Her two big eyes turned to look at the two friends who wanted to help but didn’t dare.

“Pfft—” Li Yuan bent over and laughed out, barely supporting herself on Mu YouYun’s shoulder while pointing at Wa Hu: “On another note, Wa Hu, I finally discovered that the whites of your eyes are really white today. It looks just like a peeled boiled egg.”

Everyone focused on her eyes too. Exactly! That black face made the whites of her eyes even whiter. It was particularly evident when she rolled her eyes; the black and white were clearly contrasted. As a result, everyone burst into laughter.

Wa Hu’s Guardian Beasts felt distressed and carried her out to tidy her up. When she returned looking completely fresh and clean, it was still not her turn yet. A small disruption passed by like this, but since then, no one dared to make any loud noise after witnessing the capability of that intelligent referee.
