226: Chapter 226 Participation?
_1 226: Chapter 226 Participation?
_1 “Aren’t you supposed to report to the special forces unit this weekend?
How can you participate in the competition?”
Zhong Liuyan looked at Feng Yuan with so confusion.
She knew that typically, one couldn’t take leave from punishnt work, and Pei Yu disdainfully said,
“Can’t that guy ask for leave?”
“Don’t talk nonsense.
You can’t just take leave from punishnt work at will.
If you’re thinking about taking a ‘tyrant’s leave,’ you might as well give up.
Doing so would only make your punishnt more severe.”
Seeing Zhong Liuyan’s concerned look, Pei Yu pursed his lips in dissatisfaction while staring at Feng Yuan.
Scratching his head, Feng Yuan said,
“It’s not about taking leave.
Captain Yan and his team arranged for to participate.
I’m not exactly sure how they did it, but this competition is a rare opportunity.
Don’t you want to take part?
The next one won’t be as high-level as this one~”
“A rare opportunity?
High-level?
Are you talking about the event personally organized by Elder Li?”
Once Feng Yuan ntioned it, Zhong Liuyan understood what he ant and, after thinking for a mont, said,
“Though tempting, with Xiao Bai’s strength, I doubt we’d be able to compete.”
“Liuyan, don’t say that.
We can form a team this ti, right?
I’ll be with you.”
“But this competition scores based on performance.
Even if soone carries you to victory, it wouldn’t an much.”
“But still…”
Feng Yuan started to speak, glancing at Xiao Bai on Zhong Liuyan’s shoulder, who was curiously looking back at him.
“It’s the participation that counts, right?
Besides, although Xiao Bai is only of the Common Level, he’s almost at the brink of evolving, isn’t he?”
“You noticed?
Well, with your impressive skills in potion making, it’s not surprising that you’d observe that.”
“Eh?
Liuyan, your Xiao Bai is evolving?
Why didn’t you tell ?
I could help you get so evolution materials.”
Glancing at Pei Yu just as she was about to speak, it seed that Zhong Liuyan realized Feng Yuan knew sothing.
She shook her head at Feng Yuan and said after a mont of thought,
“What about Qi Chen?
Isn’t he joining you?
Even if you’re strong, adding him and to the team would still be a disadvantage, wouldn’t it?”
“Liuyan, don’t be like that.
Your Xiao Bai is amazing, too.”
“I’m not sure if he’ll participate.
Although I’ve asked him, but…
as for his weakness?”
Rembering that both Qi Chen and Dou Yanlan had Wolf God’s Robes, Feng Yuan smiled and said,
“His strength might give you quite a shock~”
Looking at Feng Yuan with suspicion, Zhong Liuyan thought for a mont and said,
“I can’t give you an imdiate answer to that.
After all, this isn’t a trivial matter.”
“That’s fine, just let know when you’ve decided.”
“Is this why you wanted to et us?”
“Yeah, participating alone would be pretty boring.
You and Qi Chen are the only ones I know who might form a team.”
Looking at Feng Yuan, Zhong Liuyan said with a smile,
“Now that we’ve discussed the serious matters, can we talk about so gossip?”
“What kind of gossip?”
“Like the incident in Luo’an City.
What’s really going on over there?
Everyone in the dorms has different theories, and I don’t know which to believe.”
“Please, he’s just doing odd jobs for the special forces.
How would he know?
Liuyan, if you really want to find out, I can ask around when I go back.”
After thinking for a mont, Feng Yuan said,
“It’s not that I can’t tell you, but just don’t say that you heard it from .
After all, I’m also not sure what’s considered confidential.”
“You know?”
Pei Yu looked at Feng Yuan skeptically, while Zhong Liuyan exclaid with a ‘I knew it’ appearance,
“You were involved, weren’t you?
The Death-series Divine Beast from the battle, that was your Agunas, right?”
“Eh?
How did you get here?”
Following Zhong Liuyan’s gaze, Feng Yuan realized that Agunas had floated to his side at so point.
Agunas glanced at Feng Yuan and continued to jot sothing down in a book.
Pei Yu looked at the inconspicuous Agunas floating by Feng Yuan’s side and said with so surprise,
“That’s the high-level Death-series Divine Beast?!”
“Keep your voice down!”
Zhong Liuyan glanced around and noticed that no one was paying attention to them.
She glared at Pei Yu and gestured with her hand to signal that nothing was wrong.
Feng Yuan briefly recounted the events that had taken place in Luo’an City, and Pei Yu said with so surprise,
“It’s amazing how just one piece of false information can cause such a big commotion!”
“There must be sothing wrong with that lake too, right?
To sustain a remnant soul for so long…
But…
are they really willing to sacrifice everyone’s lives just to make their opponents pay a steep price?”
Zhong Liuyan sighed, and Pei Yu, looking at Feng Yuan, said,
“Are you making this up?
How can there be a family like that.”
“Just because you haven’t seen one doesn’t an it doesn’t exist, okay?
I just omitted so details, after all, so things are better off lost to history.”
“Hmph, who knows if what you’re saying is true or false.”
“Believe it or not, it’s up to you.”
The three of them continued discussing the situation in Luo’an City while eating dinner.
After dinner, they went back to their dorm room.
Hearing Feng Yuan opening the door, Qi Chen, who was lying on the bed, sat up and said seriously to Feng Yuan,
“You’re back.”
Startled by Qi Chen’s expression, Feng Yuan said, sowhat perplexed,
“Why are you looking at like that?
I haven’t done anything wrong.”
“Should I participate in the competition this ti?”
“Of course you should participate.
Big Cat, Najia, try the canteen’s new food and see how it is.
If it’s good, I might improve your als in the future~”
“ow?”
“But if I participate…
wouldn’t relying solely on the Divine Descent Technique seem like cheating…”
“After evolving, won’t Ah Mu have combat power?
And there’s nothing wrong with just relying on the Divine Descent Technique.
The competition doesn’t even ban the use of items.
As long as it is sothing you can use, it’s fine.”
Seeing Qi Chen still hesitant, Feng Yuan said with a mischievous smile,
“Would you really have the heart to let participate in the competition alone~”
“I would!
Stop doing that, it’s disgusting!”
“Hmph, so, did Dou Yanlan agree to participate?”
“She said it doesn’t matter to her to experience it, but…”
Seeing Qi Chen still tangled up, Feng Yuan laid back on his bed and looked at the bed board, saying,
“Don’t you think she made a good point?
How many competitions can there be presided over by an Elder personally?
I definitely wouldn’t call you to one that has turned into a Divine Beasts civil war like the regional competitions.
Since Maomu City doesn’t have a Divine Pact Maker, maybe you could even get a good ranking by experiencing the competition~”
“Isn’t Hong Zhi participating?
I rember that the college division and our high school division compete together, right?
Plus, they recomnd that teams be mixed between college division and high school division.”
“Do you think he would compete alone?
As for forming a team, I don’t know if they’re full yet.
If not, I don’t know anyone but him, so I don’t really want to team up.”
“You…”
“Anyway, that’s how I am.
If I’m not familiar with them, if I can’t get along with them, I just don’t want to team up.”
After being indecisive all night, Qi Chen agreed to participate in the competition with Feng Yuan the next morning.
On the weekend, Feng Yuan, along with Xiao Ji, Dreaming Dragon Baby, and Agunas, arrived at the Special Task Force’s temporary office to wait for Ye Hanlei and the others to co.
“Yo~ our champion has arrived so early~”
“What champion?”
Looking puzzledly at Liao Yu, who greeted him, Liao Yu slapped Feng Yuan’s back and said with a smile,
“Aren’t you going to participate in the Maomu City Beast Tar competition?
With your strength, winning the championship should be a cinch~ So, have you thought about your victory speech yet~”
“Where have I got strong?
Besides, Agunas isn’t my Spirit Beast, and I can’t bring Agunas during the competition.
I’m really nervous and scared~”
“You don’t look scared at all like that.
You’re not convincing.”
“Do you guys need to find an opportunity to give so ti to practice fighting?”
Ye Hanlei looked at Feng Yuan and asked.
Shaking his head, Feng Yuan said,
“No need, Xiao Ji will at least need to get through the winter holidays before entering the evolution preparation phase.
It’s already trained everything it needs to; there’s no rush.
Besides, with the competition coming up, I’m sure there’s a lot more going on, right?
The number of people registering for the competition will certainly skyrocket.”
Although the competition being presided over by Elder Li had not been made public yet, rumors had already spread privately.
Ye Hanlei sighed and said,
“That’s a given, but we wouldn’t depend too much on an auxiliary mber, would we?”
