"Of course." With her back facing Prunus, An Qiu smiled. Prunus was working so hard.
She couldn't give up so easily.
…
After exchanging places with the Prunus player, An Qiu, who was wearing a neat sports uniform, slowly walked onto the stage under the applause and cheers.
"… This kid is very beautiful!
Where did she come from? "
"I've been paying attention to her since the horse-riding battle!"
"I want to nominate this kid to the firm!"
"You're going for her looks, right? Hahahaha!"
…
Upon seeing the rookie make her debut, the Headhunter heroes from the Hero Firm began a wanton discussion about An Qiu in the audience.
She wasn't used to and didn't like the feeling of being stared at by everyone around her.
Therefore, An Qiu, who was known for her calmness,
Couldn't help but stiffen her expression.
Fortunately, the attention of the audience on An Qiu was quickly taken away by her opponent. Not long after An Qiu went on the stage, a tall and handsome boy with wheat-colored skin entered the stage from the entrance directly in front of her.
At the same time,
The applause and cheers reached another peak. It was as if everyone came to see her opponent.
With the reaction of the audience, An Qiu looked up with interest.
She met the boy's eyes again. She remembered that his name was Kobayashi Tomoshu or something.
Just now, Teacher Mike was too noisy, so she covered her ears.
She completely missed the introduction of her opponent …
Oh, then why was the audience so attracted to him?
Was it because of his face?
An Qiu tilted her head.
Her eyes were a little indifferent.
Although the boy in front of her was tall and handsome, his wheat-colored skin was too wheat-colored.
But that wheat color was a little too much. It looked just like a wooden stake. An Qiu was full of questions.
In the next moment, she got the answer from Teacher Mike's narration.
[OH
My！
Under the thunderous applause of the audience.
Mr. Kobayashi finally revealed his true identity — he was as handsome as his Uncle Might Of The Jungle, who was ranked No. 7!
Although he is still a little weaker than me … I wonder how strong he is?
Let DJ Mike explain it to everyone in advance.
It's said that Mr. Kobayashi is one of the best in the League of Legends.]
An Qiu was suddenly enlightened. So, the uncle of the handsome boy in front of her was a famous hero?
When she came back to her senses, she looked at Kobayashi and Tomoaki helplessly. She clearly wanted to pass the competition inconspicuously, but she was unlucky enough to draw such a celebrity as her opponent …
[… The relative of a powerful and popular hero VS a beauty whose strength is a mystery. Who will win in a battle of attractiveness?!]
Mike held the microphone to his mouth, forgetting himself. The DJ spirit exploded, and the sound waves became louder and louder, heating up the atmosphere. An Qiu twitched her fingers in disgust, and with great difficulty, she suppressed the urge to plug her ears in front of the whole country.
Tomoaki Kobayashi, who was enjoying the applause of the audience, finally reacted. He lowered his cold eyes and raised his hands again. Seeing Kobayashi's action, the noisy discussion of the audience suddenly stopped, bringing a brief moment of silence to An Qiu's ears.
Then, Kobayashi spoke in a flat tone, "I am me, not Might Of The Jungle.
Please focus on my strength. "After that, the audience paused for a moment, and then immediately applauded and cheered.
[OH！
What a hardcore speech!
I wonder if Might Of The Jungle saw it?
Well then — let's watch Mr. Kobayashi's wonderful appeal together!]
Teacher Mike was also in high spirits.
An Qiu: [… Why am I so tired before it even starts?]
…
No one knew how many NC fans Kobayashi gained at that moment. They only knew that after his speech, An Qiu VS Kobayashi officially began.
"Sorry, even if you're a girl, I won't go easy on you."
Kobayashi squatted down and put his two wheat-colored hands beside him. His brown eyes locked onto An Qiu, like a beast that saw its prey.
An Qiu paused for a moment, then adjusted her breathing and gestured for him to come at her.
After that, Kobayashi immediately reached out to attack. His personality was the same as Might Of The Jungle's. He could turn his body into a tree and attack or defend at will. Because of this, he could attack An Qiu who was standing tens of meters away from him just by standing still.
The rule of the game was that he would win if he could push his opponent out of the field. He wasn't that aggressive. Since his opponent was a girl, his goal was naturally to use his personality to catch her and throw her out of the field.
[Mr. Kobayashi suddenly started to attack fiercely. I wonder how Miss Asakura will deal with this attack!?
Can she dodge it?]
An Qiu gradually got used to Mike's deafening narration. Naturally, she could dodge it easily. How many times had she practiced with Explode?
She could easily dodge this kind of attack that wasn't meant to kill her. She didn't even need to use her personality.
An Qiu calmly dodged Kobayashi's branch attacks with a few backflips. In the last wave of attacks, she broke one of Kobayashi's branches with a kick and held it in her hand. An Qiu felt uneasy without a weapon in her hand, so she casually used her opponent's weapon.
Kobayashi was stunned for a moment. He looked at his personality that was casually "borrowed", then looked at An Qiu with admiration. For a girl, she had a strong sense of battle and was very decisive.
"Looks like you have some skills …" Kobayashi smiled and raised his right hand. "Then I'll be a little more serious!"
An Qiu still didn't say anything. She held the branch in her hand with a serious expression.
…
"That bastard, he's unexpectedly serious."
Outside the arena, the person who had arrived at the venue of the first years crossed his arms and looked calmly at the black-haired girl standing in the arena. He clearly remembered that this girl had told him no less than ten times that she would be "eliminated in the first round".
Didn't she climb to the third round?
Did something happen?
Bao Hao looked at her determined side profile and saw that she suddenly became serious as if she had changed into a different person. That contrast made him feel a little concerned in his heart that even he himself couldn't detect.
He really couldn't figure out what that damned woman was thinking.
…
After that warning, Xiao Lin clearly increased the speed and intensity of his attacks. Tree branches burst out from time to time, but An Qiu just happened to dodge them all.
"… You're not going to use your personality?"
Kobayashi looked up in surprise. He continued to attack from the same spot and looked at An Qiu, who had been dodging his attacks. An Qiu bent her body to escape, but her black eyes didn't dare to relax as she stared at Kobayashi's movements. She thought that it was almost time because her dodging couldn't keep up with his attacks. If she didn't use her personality, she wouldn't be able to get close to him.
"Conserving your strength isn't what you should do in a sports arena."
Kobayashi was annoyed by An Qiu's lukewarm attitude. Thinking of this, he suddenly increased the intensity of his personality. The branches that were attacking An Qiu quickly changed their attack trajectory as if they were alive.
An Qiu cursed. No matter how fast she was, she would not be able to dodge this attack. She subconsciously increased the speed of her legs, trying to find a way to solve the problem. However, Xiao Lin still managed to grab her calf with a branch, and she was hung upside down by him.
An Qiu was shocked. She subconsciously reached out with the branch in her right hand to chop off Xiao Lin's vines and branches. However, she was still forced to kneel down by the speed at which the branches grew. The branches snaked up her right leg like snakes and wrapped tightly around her body.
"Oh!"
She furrowed her brows and let go of the branch in her right hand. She tried her best to pry the branches off her body, but she couldn't move them at all. The claws of the branches were too strong. Once Xiao Lin fixed the shape of the branches, she couldn't pry them off.
She gradually showed a sad expression on her face.
"… The winner has been decided."
Kobayashi said with a poker face. He didn't expect An Qiu to not use her personality at this point. This really surprised him. But no matter what, he didn't care about her feelings or the reason for her choice. Since she was caught by him, he could just throw her out of the arena and win the game.
[After five minutes of tug-of-war, he finally caught her. Mr. Kobayashi used his personality in an instant and easily captured Miss Asakura. What's going to happen next?
Is this the end of the game?!]
Following Teacher Mike's timely commentary, the audience's faces gradually showed a bored expression.
It seemed that the outcome of this battle had been decided. Even An Qiu was helpless against the tree branch in Xiao Lin's hand.
"She's still not going to use her personality?!
That damned woman! "
Unknowingly, the tycoon, who had moved from an inconspicuous position to the front row, gripped the railing angrily. He was so angry that his face turned into a white inverted triangle. What the hell was she thinking?
She really knew how to embarrass him!
Let's see if I don't teach her a lesson after the game!
Explode was angry. Sparks began to appear on his hands again.
Dehisa, who suddenly saw Explode not far away, trembled. She seemed to have seen something strange watching the game.
Erlang: I feel like I have a new target to tease.
Reishi: It's the smell of gossip!
Feng Da hugged Che Island and trembled. I knew Explode was up to no good!
Isn't he here to watch the game?!
Explode saw Explode's anxious and angry expression and laughed helplessly. He and Prunus were the most familiar with the relationship between Explode and Asakura Yasuaki. Explode was probably worried about Asakura.
After all, his anxiety was written all over his face.
…
…
×××
Of course, in the hero stream, there were bound to be students who were dissatisfied with the unfair arrangement made by the school.
For example, Feng Da from Class 2-A.
"Explode, you can actually bring me along with that ahhhhhh —" Feng Da was still the embodiment of lust in Class 2-A today.
Che Island was amazed. "That's amazing. Feng Da, your focus is always different from others."
"Take me with you, take me with you, take me with you —" Fengda was crying so hard that he almost pissed his pants. Today, his mind was filled with beautiful women as usual. When he saw that the tycoon who was about to go out and heard that Anqiu had been paired with him, he wailed and hugged the tycoon's thigh, begging him to take him with him.
Seeing the perverted Explode stuck to his leg, he was surprisingly calm. He silently lifted his leg and looked at Che Island.
Che Island tacitly removed Feng Da from Explode's leg.
Feng Da: "… You guys are too much."
Shangming: "It's useless, Feng Da. Go and study. Put your hopes on the next semester."
Feng Da: "Ahhhhh —"
"I'm leaving."
Explode wasn't interested in this farce at all. He noticed that Dehisa and the others had left, so he left the dormitory with a straight face. Was his mentor beautiful?
That kind of thing didn't matter. The most important thing was strength!
…
Explode walked for half a day with a face that could kill an entire village. Finally, he arrived at the training ground arranged by the school.
After collecting the entry key card from the teacher in charge, he happened to see Asakura Yasuaki waiting by the side of the training ground.
Explode didn't know how to face this girl. He glared at her as if she was his enemy. Ahhh, teaching people was so troublesome.
An Qiu, on the other hand, had no expectations for the occasional outburst. She spoke in a disdainful tone, "… The school is really meddling in other people's business."
Coming up with such a boring matchmaking program, they didn't even consider her feelings of wanting to live a normal life.
"… Huh?
Do you need me to teach you manners?! "
Explode raised his chin in dissatisfaction. He subconsciously felt disgusted by this girl's attitude. Although to be fair, he didn't have a good impression of anyone.
"… Let's start quickly."
An Qiu sighed in her heart. Her senpai really said something he shouldn't have.
She said that she wasn't good at this kind of guy … No, it was more accurate to say that at first glance, she didn't know if there were one or two guys in the school who could adapt to this senpai.
Thinking of this, An Qiu frowned again, "If you don't start, I'm going back."
"… Huh?
Didn't you say you didn't do well in the exam so you need to be taught?
Are you out of your mind?! "
Explode's eyes turned into inverted triangles. He had been studying Xiong Ying for a year, but his fiery temper still hadn't improved. When he spoke, he even stretched out his hands. The explosive sparks on top of his head crackled, "Do you think I want to train with a bastard like you?!"
An Qiu wasn't frightened by Explode's ruthlessness. Her eyes were calm and her tone was sarcastic as she reminded him, "Senpai, you stayed obediently yesterday."
"You bastard, you're really …!"
"I've decided, I'm going to make you cry!"
…
…
Then, half an hour later, in Explode's special class.
"Bastard!
Do you have any motivation?! "Explode's hands were spitting fire.
"…" An Qiu sighed in her heart and doubted her life.
Just as the weak students in the rooms next door began to train obediently, Explode began to guide the Asakura students that he had been assigned to.
Originally, he was prepared to put on a sour face for the entire day and play the role of a strict teacher. However, after only half an hour, Mr. Explosive Tycoon became rather annoyed. This was because the girl in front of him was different from any other student in the hero stream he had ever seen.
There was no motivation in her eyes at all!
There was actually someone who didn't have the self-awareness of a hero stream student compared to Feng Da!
He had seriously asked her to take a look at the obstacles. In the end, Asakura Yasuaki had no intention of competing at all. She even climbed the mountain at a leisurely pace.
Sounds of fierce fighting could be heard from Stinky Jiu and Half Bastard's rooms next door. Why was his room, which was supposed to explode the most, so quiet that he could read?!
"Don't tell me that you're going to use this tortoise speed on the day of the sports festival, you bastard!"
Explode's eyes were burning. He hated people who dilly-dallied the most. He suppressed his urge to spit fire at the girl and asked while suppressing his temper.
An Qiu stopped what she was doing and looked at Explode with exhaustion in her eyes. "… Is there a problem?
I don't usually like to use my personality, and I don't plan to use it on the sports festival either. "
"It's fine even if you lose because of this?!"
"Yes."
Asakura Yasuaki's eyes were as calm as water. She silently climbed the mountain. Although she didn't have the motivation to train her personality, she was still interested in training her body.
Seeing that she was obviously ignoring him, the corner of Boisterous Tyrant's mouth twitched and he instantly exploded, "This is a big problem, you scoundrel!"
An Qiu was almost at the top of the mountain. She sat on the edge and looked down at Explode from above. She tilted her head and said calmly, "… Everyone has different choices, right, senpai?"
Tyrant's mouth twitched again. He was so angry that he was about to explode on the spot. If he really allowed this disgraceful student to finish the Sports Festival's track with such a tortoise's attitude, it would be strange if he didn't get ridiculed to death by those 2-A bastards!
Although he disliked the school's nosy plan, since he was participating, he couldn't let this bastard embarrass him!
He stretched out his hand and pressed his knuckles, his fists cracking loudly. That's right, he really shouldn't have been merciful to her just because she was a damned woman. Beating her up whenever he was unhappy with her was the way of a king!
Explode, who was completely pissed off by Asakura Yasuaki, revealed an especially cold and cruel smile. "… Hahaha, since you said so, then I have my choice too!!"
Asakura Yasuaki: …?
