Chapter 239: Explode

Chapter 239: Explode

It was a sunny day in the New Jiacheng District, and the people of Jiangbin City were extremely pleased.

After a two-and-a-half-hour drive, Jiang Xiao and the rest arrived in Jiacheng, the most famous city in the Beijiang Province.

The entire city was terrific and was said to be the place where the sun rose the earliest in China.

The “place” was used cleverly. It was not exactly the first city to see the sun in the true sense, but rather the city that was the first to receive sunlight was under Jiacheng’s jurisdiction. So…

Jiang Xiao did not have the time to watch the sunrise. Their team alighted from the bus at 8:30 am and hurriedly proceeded to report at the designated hotel.

When Jiang Xiao’s team arrived at the venue, they discovered that it was already overcrowded with nearly a hundred people. They reckoned that there were probably more participating teams this time, compared to the “Beijiang Province High School Professional League”.

Although there were more contestants, there were fewer cameras, and it was obvious that this time, the Second Wasteland Reclamation Competition was not taken too seriously.

That was actually the case in reality. There were very few broadcasts for the Second Wasteland Reclamation Competition compared to the previous provincial leagues, because it was not enticing enough.

It was a pure competition of speed, and drawing a map was also a relatively tedious process. In order to score points, students would try not to fight with creatures of other dimensions, so as to not alter the population distribution and survival habitats of the creatures of other dimensions. Hence, there was nothing much to watch in this competition.

If it were a National Wasteland Reclamation Competition where the godlike contestants were required to enter a special and rare Dimensional Space to explore and carry out the reclamation, it would probably become sensational and cause an uproar in society.

However, out of all people from all walks of life, only a few would pay attention to provincial leagues like the Second Wasteland Reclamation Competition that was meant for high school students.

Back to the main topic.

Jiang Xiao found it interesting that all eyes were on him and his team the instant they opened the door of the hotel ballroom. The pairs of eyes that belonged to the members of the other teams made Jiang Xiao’s heart tremble.

He suddenly felt a sense of familiarity. Why does this feel like a comic about migrant workers?

This chapter should be… the scene of ninjas from all over the world sitting for the Chinese Ninja Examination?

Jiang Xiao managed to see feelings of envy, jealousy, indignation, anticipation, vigilance, and even fear in the eyes of the other children.

Jiang Xiao noticed plenty of emotions, and he was a little overwhelmed for a while.

Without a doubt, Jiang Xiao’s team, which had just won the Beijiang Provincial High School League championship a year ago, had become the focus of everyone’s attention.

Why do I suddenly feel like I’m the big villain?

Tsk tsk, the feeling… is really not too bad.

All of you, keep your eyes wide open! Look at me, the Toxic Healing King. When you run into me, you’d better take a detour!

Wait, the rules of the competition seem to prohibit contestants from fighting each other?

Uh, my bad, my bad…

Jiang Xiao suddenly remembered something and scratched the back of his head with one hand, while continuing to maintain a harmless and innocent facade.

The students were all looking at the legendary, godlike team while Jiang Xiao was also secretly scanning the audience. At first glance, he saw the most beautiful boy in the village, Zhou Cang!

Zhou Cang had clearly washed his hair today and he seemed to be in a rejuvenated state. Feminine-looking, artistic, scholarly-like, and delicate young men like Zhou Cang tended to look completely different before and after a hair wash.

His shoulder-length hair fluttered in the air and he would occasionally fiddle and flick his bangs in front of his forehead with his fingers while whispering something to the person beside him.

The person beside him was not a member of his class, but… Wu Haoyang from Xindan Creek High School No. 11!

Jiang Xiao took a closer look, only to realize that it was Wu Haoyang. He thought, How did these two get acquainted? And they even seem to be rather happy together?

Indeed, they’re both powerhouses. They were opponents and yet, they’re being sympathetic to each other and can even have such a calm and joyous conversation. Indeed, they’re extraordinary.

Jiang Xiao watched the two of them leaning in to whisper to each other beside the window, finding it to be a pleasant scene.

On the other hand, An Luming, standing beside Wu Haoyang, was already on the verge of losing her sanity.

Wu Haoyang and Zhou Cang were pressing their shoulders against each other and neither of them was willing to give way. They were both smiling and appearing rather composed on the surface, but deep down, they were actually fiercely competing with each other.

Zhou Cang said, “The first place belongs to me.”

Wu Haoyang said, “No, the first place is mine!”

Zhou Cang said, “Haha, stop dreaming.”

Wu Haoyang said, “It’s mine, it’s mine!”

Zhou Cang said, “Wake up, it’s already daybreak.”

Wu Haoyang said, “The first place is mine!”

An Youyou said, “Wu Haoyang, let’s go. We have already signed up half an hour ago.”

Wu Haoyang was still pressing himself against Zhou Cang’s shoulder and he whispered with a smile, “The first place is mine, mine!”

Zhou Cang smiled and shook his head gently, causing his black hair to sway a little. He said calmly, “Its mine.”

Wu Haoyang immediately answered, “Mine! Mine!”

As if the longer his sentence, the more persuasive he would be, Wu Haoyang suddenly turned his head to look at Qian Zhuang and asked, “Speak up. Is it ours?”

Qian Zhuang muttered, “I, I, I, I, I…”

Wu Haoyang nodded and said with a look of admiration, “That’s right!”

Zhou Cang remained silent.

An Luming shook her head, on which her hair was tied into a bun, and stomped her feet. “I’m so bored, I’ll go if you guys don’t come.”

An Luming then left while An Youyou and Qian Zhuang hurriedly chased after her.

On the other hand, Lu Jingfeng, Lin Zi, and Cheng Lu from Qicheng High School looked at each other and turned away, leaving Zhou Cang and Wu Haoyang behind to compete with each other.

The two of them were still competing when they suddenly detected a commotion in the ballroom.

Everyone began discussing amongst themselves incessantly.

“Is this the godlike team from Jiangbin High School? I’ve finally seen them in person.”

“Wow, I finally saw the legendary Goddess Xue~”

“Oh my god, she’s so beautiful. She looks just like a fairy…”

Zhou Cang and Wu Haoyang looked over at the same time, only to see the “thorn in their hearts”.

Although the two had been fighting for the first place, their teams were actually in second and third places respectively.

The real team of champions had just entered.

Jiangbin High School had already won the first place in the previous Beijiang Provincial High School League. If they were to come in first place in the Second Wasteland Reclamation Competition, they would definitely emerge as champions again, leaving their names in historical records.

Wu Haoyang and Zhou Cang looked at each other for a long time with sullen expressions. After a long while, Wu Haoyang said in a deep voice, “The first place belongs to me.”

Zhou Cang remained silent.

Among the vast number of teams, Jiang Xiao found another team that he was familiar with.

Jiang Xiao walked beside Han Jiangxue and whispered to her, “The team from Jiangbin High School No. 3 is here too. Zhang Weiliang, Zhang Mingming, and Yu Zhen are all there. There is another member. A girl I’ve never met.”

Han Jiangxue didn’t look or pay attention to the team at all. Instead, she said, “You don’t have to care about them.”

Jiang Xiao and the rest ignored the team from Jiangbin High School No. 3, but Xing Lang’s team was sent into a frenzy!

All the students present were arrogant Awakened who were definitely the elites of their respective cities since they were selected to participate in the competition. Hence, they were definitely competent.

So, the hostility that Xing Lang’s team was showing and the Star Power that they exuded had caused a tension to form in the air, which all the students could feel.

After all, it was the reporting venue for the Second Wasteland Reclamation Competition. However, why was there less animosity in the air? Of course, it was because fighting between students was prohibited.

Now, Xing Lang’s team was just like a torpedo rushing into a school of fish.

To Jiang Xiao’s surprise, Xing Lang was rather reckless and brutal, but his female teammate, Liu Chang, the Rules Awakened, was much worse!

Flames seemed to emerge from Liu Chang’s eyes as she glowered at Yu Zhen intensely, seemingly having thought of the battle a few months ago.

During the finals, Xia Yan got rid of Yu Zhen with a single strike of her knife, and as a result, Liu Chang ended up having to buy plenty of snacks for Xia Yan, such as sausages, potato chips, yogurt, and so on. Xia Yan was extremely comfortable and clearly, Liu Chang resented Yu Zhen greatly.

Strictly speaking, Rules Awakened like Liu Chang and Yu Zhen basically attacked the stronger opponents and defended their weak teammates. At the Nebula Stage, the strikes from the Star Techniques of any Rules Awakened would definitely be enough to determine the victors and losers of the battle. Hence, although Yu Zhen was much stronger than Liu Chang, Liu Chang, who had the same opportunity, felt really indignant.

Besides, Liu Chang obviously could not control her emotions.

Perhaps, she thought that after a few months, she would be able to face everything calmly.

However, when she saw Yu Zhen’s expressionless and arrogant face, Liu Chang discovered that she was reminded of the scene of herself getting trampled all over, which ran through her mind. She was incredibly infuriated!

Finally, Liu Chang couldn’t help but launch an attack!

Yes, a scene that made everyone bewildered finally appeared. Liu Chang actually attacked!

Even if one were to launch an attack and break the rules during a competition, the deduction of points would be the highest penalty.

However, what would happen if you did it on Earth? What happened if you did it at the registration venue?

Youth was full of rage, angst, and recklessness!

Flames would ignite easily…

What if Yu Zhen were to say “What are you looking at?” before Liu Chang attacked?

The problem was, Yu Zhen didn’t say or do anything at all, and yet, Liu Chang was already infuriated.

As the old saying goes, holding it in would be upsetting, and taking a step back would aggravate one’s anger.
