Before his own men could react, Zeng Gui'an, who was hiding in the shadows, was the first to explode when he was asked to spy on military intelligence.

He jumped out of the bushes where he was crouching, blurting out in a self-destructive statement, "Qin Ming, you can't play like this!"

"What's the suspense now?"

Having already spotted his companion's trail, Qin Ming, feeling confident and unconcerned, said with a playful smile, "Didn't you say something about shifting between offense and defense, and that you weren't convinced by my speed?"

"I'm impressed! I'm truly impressed! I don't even need to lean on the wall anymore, I'm just impressed by you!" Zeng Guian changed his tune from the bottom of his heart.

When he was shouting slogans in the last round, his teammates no longer hid their desire to kill him.

If we had another round...

It was him who instigated this revenge again...

His fate... could it be that he has no fate at all?

Thinking this, Zeng Guian's mind raced, and he tried his best to stop him, saying, "Qin Ming, friendship comes first, competition second!"

Qin Ming rested his chin on his hand, deep in thought, and said, "Just half an hour ago, our friendship was on the verge of collapse. I hope you remember now!"

Zeng Guian was jolted, as if struck by a heavy blow, his face turning pale and then flushed.

But thinking about the consequences of going back like this, he struggled again.

"Qin Ming, the focus of the competition isn't on winning or losing, but on the gains and lessons learned. What good is winning if you're the only one who shines? Have you considered how your teammates feel?"

He cried out in anguish, his grief so infectious that it was unclear for whom it was all for!

But those words really struck a chord with Qin Ming. In the last round, his teammates had only played a supporting role, resulting in very little participation. It would be a bit unfair to do it again.

Qin Ming turned to look at his teammates, wanting to know what they thought.

Curly-haired student exchanged a few words with the others and summarized their opinions: "Compared to losing the game, this grievance is nothing! Master, please carry me!"

"Waaah~"

Zeng Guian was about to cry.

Being a person is so hard!

Why be so hung up on winning and losing? We're classmates!

By doing this, you will lose a sunny, cheerful, friendly, and sincere classmate surnamed Zeng!

"Ahem, let me be fair."

Qin Ming couldn't stand it any longer and cleared his throat.

"The purpose of a competition shouldn't be solely focused on the result; the process is equally important!"

"Yes, that's exactly what I meant! It has to be you, you have such a great sense of the big picture!"

Sensing the hidden glimmer of hope in Qin Ming's words, Zeng Guian praised him repeatedly.

"Alright then, if you want Keda to stay out of the game, your Team B just needs to shout out your slogan before the match!"

"This... cowardice before the battle even begins... surrendering outright!?"

The smile that had just appeared on Zeng Gui'an's face vanished...

Qin Ming spread his hands, his tone innocent and sincere, "But this way it's a win-win situation. Everyone gets some training, and I haven't let my teammates down! Isn't that great!"

Zeng Gui'an's facial muscles were incredibly stiff, his lips trembled, and he couldn't speak. What about him? Wasn't his life worth anything?!

This can't go on!

He lowered his head, closed his eyes, and took a deep breath, as if he had made up his mind. When he raised his head again, he spoke with great emotion, as if he were giving a formal speech.

"Qin Ming, you're such a person with such vision and foresight; this kind of thing is inappropriate!"

"Many people secretly call you a master, but it's beneath your status to descend to earth and compete with us!"

"Please, have some mercy and stop using your supernatural powers!!"

Zeng Guian was a man who could bend and stretch, and Qin Ming was stunned by the flattery.

The simple-minded Keda couldn't bear to watch any longer. He stepped forward and gently patted Zeng Gui'an with his magnificent wings to comfort him.

However, after experiencing firsthand the immense pressure and aura emanating from Keda after its evolution, Zeng Guian's heart grew even heavier. At this moment, he felt like he had swallowed a bitter pill, unable to express his suffering.

To his surprise, Keda discovered that the more he tried to comfort the person, the more heartbroken and distressed they became…

For a moment, Keda stood there awkwardly, at a loss, and looked to his spirit master for help.

Qin Ming understood Keda's plea for help, and shook his head helplessly. "Alright, Zeng Guian, stop fooling around. I'm fine with whatever you want. See what my teammates say."

Zeng Guian clasped his hands together and looked at the entire Team A, almost kneeling down.

This devout gesture swayed many people's attitudes. "Okay, but only one for one, and your team's leader—Shen Yanqing—cannot participate!"

"make a deal!"

So Shen Yanqing, who was suspended for some unknown reason, met Qin Ming at the dormitory entrance.

Hi~

When people are embarrassed, they tend to make a lot of small, inappropriate movements.

Qin Ming smiled and nodded, rubbing the seam of his pants with his left hand and waving his right hand in greeting, creating a kind of uncoordinated beauty.

Shen Yanqing gave him a strange look and then nodded in return.

Fortunately, his gaze was clear and there was no mockery or teasing in it, which put Qin Ming at ease.

Then, Shen Yanqing said solemnly, "I heard that your Codextrose has evolved, and it's a completely new evolution form. That's amazing! I also need to take two days off to go home and evolve my Black Crane."

"Qin Ming, we're back to fight again!"

After saying that, he extended his right hand with a fighting spirit.

Qin Ming tacitly shook hands with him and replied with a smile, "Okay, then it's a deal!"

Watching Shen Yanqing's departing figure, Qin Ming knew that when she returned next time, she would definitely have made a huge improvement, because the Xuanhe was not a spirit beast that ordinary people could possess!

In order to maintain his leading position, Qin Ming also needed to do what he had to do.

He held up an exquisite badge, its front depicting a majestic and imposing arched building.

This reminded him of his conversation with Instructor Yan Hui not long ago...

"Qin Ming, in view of your outstanding performance, the Shanghai University Freshman Training Camp grants you early graduation qualification, and you may choose to participate in subsequent training."

"Keep this badge safe. While you're on your way to Shanghai University to do your mission, you can also audit some classes there. And don't forget to try out the Challenge Tower."

"Challenge Tower?"

"That's right. Based on the strength of the visitor, a corresponding illusion challenge will be automatically generated, making it a good place to test the combat power of spirit beasts."

"If you can rank highly, there will be generous rewards. Of course, this is not easy, but your achievement might be worth a try."

"In short, holding this badge is equivalent to giving you full access to all the privileges of a current student at Shanghai University in advance."

"That young man thanks you in advance!"

Qin Ming solemnly accepted the badge handed to him by Yan Hui.

Now that he has some free time, he should go and take a look.

.........

Wang Tianbing, who left a few days ago but still thinks about this place constantly, chats with his friend in his spare time:

Old Yan, how was Qin Ming's performance today? Did he do anything big again? [Schadenfreude.jpg]

Yan Hui: He's doing great. I helped him graduate early so he could go to a university in Shanghai.

Oh, by the way, didn't Shanghai University invite you to visit the campus a while ago?

He's unfamiliar with the area, so please remember to take care of him!

Wang Tianbing: ? ?
