Change the world with entertainment with Yokai Girl

"Why does it feel like our team is suddenly surrounded by enemies?" Qin Jing said, puzzled.

At the gathering at the Wolf God Academy, the head master was discussing matters with the other inner disciples.

The head chef began, "The participants for this Tiger God Festival have been decided: five inner disciples studying in the professional zone, six gray-robed disciples from the middle school zone, and the team captain is Wolf God Momo. The remaining spot is for the newly recruited Wang Zi, whom I discussed with my master. To help the new disciple become familiar with combat, we'll have him join as well, to gain experience. If there are no problems, then proceed with the announcement."

"That's good. Everyone has seen Wang Zi's hard work, and no one will have any objections," said an inner disciple.

Momo raised his hand and said, "No, I object! If we are going to participate in the Tiger God Festival, we must compete for the best. Those who participate must be the elite of the elite. Those who drag us down will disrupt the rhythm."

Wang Zi, who happened to be walking outside the door, overheard these conversations and walked back to his room dejectedly.

When Momo returned to the room.

"Why won't you let me participate in the Tiger God Festival in your group, Big Sister? I've been training hard and I definitely won't hold you back!" Wang Zi asked, puzzled.

"Wangzi, did you hear that..." Momo looked directly at his sister and said, "Wangzi, I've seen all your hard work all this time, so there are some things I just can't bring myself to say. But I'll take this opportunity to be frank with you. It's true that hard work pays off, and you are indeed getting stronger little by little."

But this level of training will eventually reach its limit. Even if your willpower can hold up, your body won't be able to handle it. So give up; you can't possibly catch up to me. There are indeed people like Master Kai who achieve success through hard work, but that's because their bodies have the constitution to withstand high-intensity training. For ordinary monsters, doing that would only ruin their bodies, and you, Wangzi, don't have that kind of constitution. Give up.

There are many powerful enemies at this year's Martial God Festival, and I tend to get too carried away in battle, making it difficult to take care of you. So don't ask anymore, you shouldn't participate in this year's Tiger God Festival."

After Momo finished speaking, he left the room, leaving Wang Zi sitting blankly on the ground.

Inspirational quotes say that everyone has different talents. Yes, maybe you are just not good at making an effort.

Poisonous motivational quotes often say that with your current level of effort, you're not even in the running to talk about talent. They also say that failure is simply a result of not putting in enough effort beforehand.

But is that really the case? There are countless things that you can't achieve even if you try your best.

There are only a few tracks for the Olympic finals, but in reality, every competitor is a top performer in their country. Does becoming number one in the nation require no effort?

They are all athletes representing their country and carrying the hopes of their compatriots.

Are they really less talented than other players? Not necessarily.

Could it be that I put in less effort than them? That shouldn't be the case, right?

Talent is very important, but hard work also requires talent.

The difference between making the same contact day after day and achieving half the result with twice the effort and half the result with twice the effort is like night and day.

Reasonable and effective efforts will make you stronger.

But reckless efforts will cause pain.

Therefore, some famous athletes have very short careers, while others can fight their way up from legendary youngsters to legendary veterans.

Memory ability, comprehension ability, natural limb muscles, and a flash of inspiration at a crucial moment—the choices you make in your training now may very well play a key role in the future.

Under the same teachers and guidance, they watched their fellow students shine in international competitions, while they themselves were stuck at the threshold of becoming professionals, and there were quite a few who could not enter the field.

Wang Zi sat alone in the room for a long time, then wiped away her tears with her sleeve and began packing her clothes, stuffing her daily necessities into her suitcase.

Wangzi knelt down before the Wolf God and made his request.

The Wolf God gazed at his granddaughter, whom he had watched grow up since she was a child. Although Momo had initially brought her home as a playmate, once he accepted her, he raised her as his granddaughter.

Unexpectedly, I now hear her request to leave this place for a while. Is his martial arts really not suitable for this granddaughter?

Only those who think things through carefully before acting can achieve victory in a single battle.

Even a fool, after a thousand trials and errors, will eventually find a path that suits him.

"Alright then, if you don't become stronger, don't come back." The Wolf God said thoughtfully. This wasn't an angry remark, nor was it empty talk; it was simply stating his decision. Perhaps there was a hint of encouragement behind it, representing the Wolf God's expectations for the girl's future.

"Yes!!!" The girl raised her head, laughed heartily, and answered loudly.

The head chef escorted the girl out of the Wolf God's Courtyard. As they reached the gate, he asked with some concern, "Wangzi, have you thought about what to do this time you're going out?"

"It's alright! Master, I will prove that what my sister said is wrong! This time, I will become my sister's enemy!" Wang Zi said firmly.

After saying goodbye to the man who was both his mentor and father, Wang Zi, carrying his bulging backpack, ran down the mountain.

"Momo, aren't you going to tell Wangzi anything?" the head chef asked.

On the eaves of the gate, Momo appeared, standing straight, his sharp eyes gazing at Wang Zi's retreating figure as he descended the mountain, his lips tightly pressed together, saying nothing.

The place Wang Zi ran towards was Qin Jing's dormitory building; since she had no relatives or friends there, it was the only place she could go.

"Xiao Jing~! Are you here to pick me up?" Wang Zi said with a smile.

"I just came out for some fresh air." Qin Jing patted the girl's head and turned around to say, "Come in, we'll have your favorite pan-fried steak tonight!"

"Really? That's awesome!!" Wang Zi replied with a bright smile.

Qin Jing hadn't taken two steps when the girl hugged her from behind.

"Xiao Jing..."

"what?"

"How about we have dinner a little later? Let's keep it like this for now..."

"Um……"

The boy looked up at the sky. The pale gray clouds turned yellowish-brown with the setting sun, and the sky was dark purple. He couldn't tell if night was about to cover the sunlight or if the sun had shone on the world for another day.

Section 225, Chapter 41: Defeating Dreams and Goals

The brown-haired girl, who always had a bright and cheerful smile and was a simple, innocent, athletic girl, was now sobbing softly behind him.

What exactly happened? Qin Jing didn't ask, but there were only a few reasons that could cause the girl such pain, so it wasn't impossible to guess.

How annoying, dreams, goals, and things like that.

To succeed, there always needs to be a catalyst.

If they fail, they'll complain that if they hadn't had this in the first place, they would have been several times better off no matter which path they took, compared to their current state of utter failure.

As a child, he had dreamed of becoming a writer, but now he mostly reads.

If I were to start writing now, I wouldn't be able to write well. Of course, I could joke that writing novels is a dead end. But if someone close to me says "you can't," it feels like a curse, and I'd still feel hurt.

If it's just something to do for fun, like Lord Ye who loved dragons but was terrified of them, then giving it up is fine.

However, the most troublesome thing is when you've put in serious effort.

If you spend every day on your dreams and don't win any awards or make any money, then all your hard work will have been for nothing.

Just like those who stand on the podium are national heroes and enter the civil service after retirement, what about those second- or third-level athletes who train every day? Will they eventually be relegated to a corner and become a math teacher or a physical education teacher?

Are the former brave individuals who sweat and toil for the glory of the nation, while the latter spend the same amount of time and sweat for a low-paying job?

Many people, when they are young, pursue a dream without any worries, envisioning a future they can imagine. At that time, they don't care about the possibility or impossibility. Even children from the poorest families can hope that one day they can become scientists, astronauts, or even the greatest UN Secretary-General by studying hard.

But as you grow up, you'll find that passing the civil service exam is already tough enough, and the United Nations isn't the biggest or the most impartial; the biggest is actually the five permanent members of the UN Security Council.

Wang Zi is the most hardworking girl Qin Jing has ever met. Since she met her, she has seen her practicing and exercising every day, her whole body soaked in sweat.

Wolf God Martial Arts Academy is known for its hellish training, where students smash their bodies against boulders, climb rocks while strapped to them, and scale waterfalls with their bare hands...

Wang Zi not only completed these grueling training sessions step by step, just like the other disciples, but also went outside to run and do extra training on his own, relying on his willpower.

Day after day, year after year, this seemed to have become a part of the girl's life, so every time I saw her, her hair was always wet with sweat and her clothes were always soaked.

Perhaps the girl felt she was used to these things and that they weren't a big deal.

But in reality, how many people can persist in such rigorous training for several years?

Humans are emotional beings. Anger, competitiveness, motivation, and the like can excite people for days, allowing them to dedicate themselves wholeheartedly to doing something, even staying up for days and nights.

However, if this state is maintained for a week or a month, the accompanying fatigue and boredom will continue to emerge.

Sometimes it's physical, sometimes mental, and sometimes it might be an inexplicable emotion.

Short-term battles can draw motivation from external sources, while perseverance is a battle with oneself.

At least Qin Jing was like that. The girl who was sobbing softly on his back at this moment was not a loser, but a hero.

Even if she sheds tears of regret and resentment now, she will surely stand up again and continue to cultivate diligently.

Yes, it's nothing special, it's just part of everyday life.

As darkness fell, the fiery red sky eventually turned into a somber gray.

Qin Jing and her friends sat down at the dinner table, chatting and eating.

"...In short, that's how it is. Wangzi will stay here until the Tiger God Festival ends," Qin Jing said to the girls.

"Yes, everyone, please take care of me!" Wang Zi stood up and bowed to his companions.

Alice returned the greeting, then realized what she meant and retorted, "It's me here, no! There's no need to say anything now, you'd stay here from time to time anyway, wouldn't you?"

“That’s it.” Seba nodded and continued to focus on finishing his food.

"Wangzi, I will support your choice!" Whale cheered for his friend.

They won't deny their friends' ideals, nor will they blindly approve. If someone is truly working hard and needs their help, they will definitely offer their support!

Wang Zi felt a warm feeling in his heart, and Xiao Jing's pan-fried steak seemed even more delicious when he ate it.

The next morning, as soon as Wang Zi stepped out the door, he saw Mo Mo leaning against the wall, waiting there.

"Wangzi, it's about time you came back with me. Stop being so willful. I'll talk to Grandpa for you, so let's go home," Momo said to his sister.

"Sister, stop talking!" Hearing her sister's words, Wangzi glared at her angrily.

Even if she's considered lacking in strength and unable to keep up with her sister, it doesn't matter. She'll train even harder until she meets the requirements. Being rejected from joining the team isn't unacceptable either; she'll become stronger and try again next year.

But this feeling is something I don't want to be ignored.

She wanted to catch up with her powerful older sister, not as a subordinate following behind, but as a challenger who could let her sister experience the joy of battle!

Wang Zi was determined to catch up with her idolized older sister, Wolf God Momo, one of the four strongest Heavenly Kings in the academy. She worked diligently towards this ideal, not treating it as a pipe dream, but making a concrete plan to improve, recording her progress each year and comparing it to Momo's rate of growth.

She was carefully calculating how much effort she still needed to put in, and how much extra practice time she needed to spend each day to catch up with her sister's progress. She was happy to catch up a little each day, even if the distance between them was tens of thousands of meters. She was willing to catch up by just a few meters each day.

"I've said 'I will train hard and become your rival, my sister' thousands and thousands of times!' Why can't you understand?"

Wangzi is working hard for his own wish, so he doesn't need anyone else's approval and will continue.

Even if it's your older sister, she can't stop you.

Wolf God Momo is Wangzi's lifelong goal, and that's a decision that no one can change.

Although she is still very weak, and although her talent is not high, her progress is very slow.

But that cannot be a reason for me to stand before you!

If not this year, not next year, but ten years from now I will definitely stand in front of you and make it impossible for you to look away from me, because by then I will have become so strong that if you are not serious, I will beat you to a pulp!

Section 226, Chapter 42: Finding Travel Partners

An unattainable dream, a cruel twist of fate? If it's something I can never achieve in this lifetime, then let me achieve it, not for any other reason than to prove that I'm not destined to fail. Then I'll crumple up my dream, tear it apart, and throw it away. How wonderful would that be?

The only thing you should never betray is the effort you put into making your own choices!

"This is the choice I made. Whether you call me an idiot or a fool, I will strive to achieve it, no matter if it takes ten or twenty years. No one can stop me, not even my older sister. Anyone who hinders my growth is an enemy, and I will beat them all to a pulp without mercy!"

"You idiot Wangzi, I'll be stronger in ten years too, you can't possibly catch up with me. You're my little sister, right? Can't you just listen to me obediently?" Momo was also angry. She had always been the one taking care of Wangzi, but now he was suddenly rebelling against her.

"My sister is indeed stronger than I am now, but I will definitely catch up with her a year from now!"

Even so, I am definitely stronger now than you will be a year from now, and that gap will remain forever.

"No! The gap has already narrowed! Sister, your progress slowed down after you crossed the first threshold to become a great demon! But I have been making progress all along, although it is very slow, but I can feel the changes in my body every week."

"What? You really want to fight me that badly? You know you can't win, but you still insist on fighting, right?" Mo Mo asked with a sullen laugh. They had been close since childhood and had never even argued. What's wrong with this child all of a sudden?

"Because I'm angry! Big sister, you went too far this time! I feel like I'm on fire inside! I'm definitely going to punch you at the Tiger God Festival!" Wang Zi said to Mo Mo without showing any fear.

"Wangzi! How dare you talk to your sister like that! Do you think you have a chance of winning a fight against me?" Momo frowned and looked at Wangzi. She was only trying to help her sister, but her way of speaking was a bit too blunt. She didn't expect her sister to hear her.

"The odds are low, but not zero! I'm not afraid at all! Because I know my sister's weakness very well!" Wang Zi said.

"Oh ho, tell me, even if you know something, you still can't attack me," Momo said dismissively.

"What! Big sister, Wolf God Academy is the most violent. They drool in their sleep and grind their teeth!" Wang Zi kept revealing.

"You bastard, don't you know what to say and what not to say? Fine! This time, I absolutely won't hold back in the competition," Momo said angrily.

“Rua~!” Wang Zi grinned at Mo Mo.

"Rua? You actually rubbed me!?" Momo exclaimed in surprise. Her cute little sister had changed so much in just one night? She turned her gaze to the boy beside her, her expression full of intimidation.
