Chapter 108
People on the outside were also discussing this issue. It canât be said that this sentinel was weak. It was impossible that he could not have noticed someone hiding there.
But if not, how come he didnât discover him.
âThis Shi Nianâ¦â¦â Yue Xing Ran could not help but squinting his eyes, âis not simple ah!ââ
âDoes he really have only D-level mental power? How could a D-level mental power find out that someone was coming so long in advance. And the two shots he fired from the tree earlier hit from such a far distance, which is a bit difficult for even many sentinels. â
The principal of the First school said and looked at Principal Wu, âHow long has it been since your school has checked the studentsâ mental powers? You havenât even noticed that someoneâs mental powers have escalated!â
Principal Wu was also a bit suspicious. He didnât know about it, but Shi Nian himself must have known about it.
âWhat level has he reached? C or B, but these two levels canât be that strong!â
Xue Chi couldnât help but ask, âCan that ancestor be measured by normal human standards?â
Thatâs true.
Everyone immediately thought that the average guide was not as strong as he was. They didnât think it would be easy for even a trained sentinel to match him!
Only then did Adjutant Xue withdraw his gaze and concentrate on his own business.
He hadnât noticed at first, but Shi Nian had easily controlled Ink Dragon, so his mental strength could not be any worse than that of his Marshal.
It was nonsense to say that a tap could fix a disobedient mecha.
But even though he knew about it, Xue Chi would never mention it. When he saw that someone had mentioned it, he hurriedly changed the subject.
As for Starnet, there was a lot of noise going on. Compared to those with better eyesight, there are a lot of people on the Star Network who understand a lot if things.
There was a lot of discussion going on.
In particular, the student who happened to be in front of Shi Nian was accused of being outrageous.
Of course, there was no shortage of sensible people to explain it out, but all in all, it was a huge brawl.
However, with Shi Nianâs move, the battle began.
He changed positions immediately after eliminating the student. Of course, it is impossible for the other team to spot him, who was so well hidden that it was as if he was not there.
The only thing was that he was hiding on the opposite side of the others. So that if someone comes to chase him, they would naturally enter his teamâs range of fire.
For a while, it was the other team that suffered losses.
Their commander was already contacting his teammates who were scouting ahead for the next supply, while also directing his existing teammates to counterattack.
âThis team is from the Second school.â Shi Nian said, âI remember, itâs one of the powerful teams from their school.â
Outside, Lu Bo Ting also said, âHave you noticed that there are quite a number of powerful teams Shi Nian has met so far?â
For example, Wang Haoshengâs team, not to mention the team that was hit by Shi Nian earlier, was no ordinary team either. If they were really ordinary, they wouldnât be able to be stealing the protected guides at the back from the opponent.
As for the two converged teams, they were from the Second school and are in the same class, so their relationship has always been good.
âItâs luck, I guess.â Xue Chi said, â But itâs a good thing they have mechs on their team. If they can hold out for a while, the battle will be turned around when the mechs return.â
âBut Mr. Shiâ¦.â
Shi Nian was already hiding again.
â Did Shi Nian grow up hiding? How come heâs so good at hiding?â
âSentinels donât look for people with their eyes, they feel and hear them. Thatâs why he still escaped under everyoneâs eyes and hid again. ââ
âI feel like Iâm watching a film. Itâs been rehearsed!â
âIf a sentinel could do it, Iâd call him a genius, but a guide⦠â
âWhatâs wrong with a guide? Donât be discriminatory; this is a guide who can carry a heavy object and walk easily while carrying another person at the same time. â
But after this, there were not many people who are criticising the student who was eliminated by Shi Nian. After all, you canât have one dish for every dish.
Shi Nian yawned. He was a phoenix, after all. Even an ordinary cultivator would have to use a magic weapon to find him, not to mention the students here.
The Second school teamâs mechas were almost back, and this sideâs commander had obviously noticed that they the Second school team was short of people and had been stalling for time.
âWithdraw!â he said, and the men began to retreat as they fought.
It was pointless to fight until the other teamâs mechs returned.
âWhat if they arenât waiting for mechas? What if they reduced their numbers for other reasons? â
âNot likely.â The commander said, âFive sentinels and one guide. It doesnât look like a team set out to fight, and it also doesnât look like they downsized. Moreover, we did see some mechs moving around earlier, so itâs probably them.â
And, even if they were wrong, it was only a few points less.
But if there were mechs coming and they didnât pull back, it would be the end of the team.
âItâs good to know how to stop in time and see the situation.â The principal of the Third school said.
The principal of the Second smiled, but didnât forget to glance at Principal Wu.
As for your school, that guide named Shi Nian is like a monster. Otherwise, why would their team not have gotten a single point and even lost one person.
Principal Wu: ââ¦â¦â
He really didnât know what kind of person he had let into the game.
He could only say, âThe field is full of surprises, so letâs treat him as one too!â
Other school principals: ââ¦â¦â
It was soon dark.
Of course, the students inside the competition could not sleep peacefully, and they were lucky to be able to squint for a few nights.
But those on the outside didnât have to stay up as long as they did, and there werenât many students left for the night. If there was nothing serious, they could go and rest.
If any action is missed, one can watch the replay when they wake up.
Everyone was almost gone, but Lu Bo Ting didnât move. He said to Xue Chi, âYou go and rest first!â
Xue Chi knew that he must be staying to watch Shi Nian, so he didnât say anything. He stood up and was about to go and rest when he saw Yan Nuoâs father approaching.
âMr. Yan.â Xue Chi said, âItâs so late. Arenât you going to rest?â
Yan Nuoâs father said, âI just have a few words to say to Marshal Lu.â
Only then did Lu Bo Ting withdraw his gaze from the light screen and look at him, âBusiness?â
âBusiness.â Father Yan said, âI have to admit, that Shi Nian is very good. But heâs too good and too smart, which may not be a good thing for a family like the Lu family. â
âMy daughter is different. Even though she comes from the Federation, sheâs sensible enough to never do anything stupid She just needs to be pampered. Like your mother, sheâsâ¦â¦ â
Lu Bo Ting said, âShe is different from my mother. Although my mother is naive, she is knowledgeable and kind. She would never speak ill of people behind their backs, let alone slander them with her eyes closed. â
Also, when the Lu men are choosing a partner, they donât pay much attention to these entanglements of interests. If thatâs all Mr. Yan is talking about, then please go back! â
Xue Chi stood behind him in silence, saying to himself, âWhatâs wrong with you? How dare you compare your daughter to Madam Lu?â
Where is the similarity?
Yan Nuo was waiting shyly in the back, but when she heard this, she finally couldnât help but rush over, âYou havenât even spoken to me and youâre saying Iâm not kind? I know, is it because I donât have as much money as your mother? But Iâve tried so hard, Iâve tried so hard to get the mermaid gene so that I can help you with your mental problems. I havenât been exposed to much politics either, so I wonât be telling you what to do on big issues. â
Xue Chi couldnât help but stare in disbelief as he listened.
Do they think that the Lu men choose their partners according to Mrs. Luâs standards?
The money, the lack of involvement in business matters, and the high mental power to help relieve the problems of the spiritual sea?
Although when you think about it, Mrs. Lu is indeed like this, and even Lu Bo Tingâs grandmother had a similar personality, â¦â¦
But the Lu men do not go looking for this?
The old Marshal Lu has never used Mrs. Luâs money.
Old Marshal Lu just happened to fall in love with Mrs. Lu at first sight. It was not because the Lu family had to choose their partner according to a criteria. He liked her, so he married her.
Although Father Yan did not stop his daughterâs incoherent remarks, he immediately apologised.
âSheâs spoilt by nature and is a bit straightforward, so donât blame her.â
Even though Lu Bo Tingâs face was always solemn and rarely smiled, he could see at this moment that the man was not happy.
Yes, in this case, it was not appropriate to say such things out in the open.
This daughter of his was really spoiled.
Lu Bo Ting gave Yan Nuo a quick glance, not even bothering to explain anything to her.
He only said: âMr. Yan should take care of his daughter. This is the empire, not a federation. If youâre used to being a foolish person, you canât just run around like that. â
After saying this, he did not even want to say anything more to the father and daughter, so he changed his mind and got up to leave.
Yan Nuoâs eyes immediately turned red.
Her father was also furious, âCanât you just put up with it?â
He was actually prepared to talk about interests.
If a major war was about to start between the two families in the empire, and if his support was offered in exchange for this marriage, he felt that Lu Bo Ting might consider it.
After all, although it is the internal affairs of the empire, the opinions of the Federation are sometimes useful.
Who could have imagined that his daughter would be so restless?
It was his fault.
In the early years, he had seen that Madam Lu was such a domineering and fearless person. He thought she would like someone of the same character. So he did not correct his daughterâs character.
Yes, ever since Yan Nuo said she wanted to marry Lu Bo Ting, Father Yan had been moved.
His daughter was stupid and didnât understand anything, but he did! And because she was stupid, she would not even react to what the family asked her to do, and she would help them in many ways.
Who would have thought that being too stupid would not work this time, and that sending someone out would be the biggest problem.
Yan Nuo pouted, âDad!â
But her father was already thinking that if Lu Bo Tingâs path was not going to work, then he should consider working with the Wu family.
The Wu family was corrupt and greedy, so it would not be good to be their ally. But it might also be a bad thing to be their opponent. It would be a good thing for the Federation if they helped them defeat the Lu family and the Wu family became the dominant power in the Empire.
But Yan Nuo didnât believe want to listen, and she said it through gritted teeth.
âI donât believe it. Everyone wants to live longer. I donât believe that Lu Bo Ting is willing to die early because of the explosion of his spiritual sea. Sooner or later, he will change his mind, and reality will force him to turn back, and then it will be my turn to hold him. â
Yue Xingran had only forgotten something and had come back for it, but he had never expected to see this scene.
When he was about to leave, he couldnât help but say, âListen to this, Miss Yan. If you always look down on others, you may really become a joke yourself. â
âThatâs right.â Yue Xingran said, âI also heard this saying somewhere else. It was said to have been said by Shi Nian at an auction.â
He simply felt that it was appropriate to use it here.
Although he was not Lu Bo Ting, he knew that a person like him would never trade his feelings for the sake of living two more years.
Yan Nuo said she liked him, but in fact, she did not understand him at all.
It is inevitable that if one sees everyone as people who fear life and death, they will become a joke.
Yue Xingran also left, leaving Father Yan to ponder over the matter, while Yan Nuo was already mad with anger.
âHeâs nothing. The Yue family is gone, and he still dares to mock me. â
As she spoke, her eyes caught sight of the light screen.
Before Lu Bo Ting left, he had zoomed in on the light screen in front of him and put it in front of Shi Nian. At that moment, Shi Nian was preparing to sleep comfortably.
This time, Yan Nuoâs mentality completely collapsed.
Of course, this was not known to Lu Bo Ting.
He just went back to his bedroom and prepared to use his light brain to watch.
Naturally, the light brain was not as smooth as the previous light screen, especially now that there were more people watching, and it got stuck for a while. It was hard to resume, but the time was already 10 minutes slower than the live broadcast.
Starnet was already abuzz with criticism on this, and Lu Bo Ting frowned too.
Inside the light brain, the voice the team commander came out, âLetâs rest early, go back and act in the middle of the night to see if we can catch some people who are resting..
The others had no objection, and after leaving a few to keep watch, they each went into their tents and prepared to rest for two hours.
The tents were also found at the supply point, and apart from the water and nutrients packed to keep one from starving to death for three days, everything else had to be taken from the supply point.
They were given three tents; one for the three sentinels, one for Shi Nian and Zhou Xinyun, and the third was left for the two on watch.
When Zhou Xin Yun entered the tent, he saw Shi Nian with his hand on his cheek and asked, âArenât you going to sleep? Itâs only two hours, so you should hurry up and rest. â
Shi Nian frowned and said, âI donât know why, but I feel something is not right. But when I think about it, there was nothing wrong with this journey.â
He even looked around with his consciousness, and there was nothing wrong.
Oh, there was a group of people coming with their mechs.
But there were only two of mecha, and one of them wasnât even as good as theirs.
Thatâs normal, butâ¦
âWeâve always had bad luck for us.â
Itâs time to nap, and here we go again.
But if thereâs a problem, itâs not noticeable. Itâs such a big place, and with so many people in, itâs normal to run into some dinoflagellates and other teams.
As for resupply, there are plenty of people who are worse off than they are. At least they had found mechs, which was much better than the two-in-one team they had met earlier.
When he saw that Zhou Xin Yun was ready to sleep, he said, âDonât bother. Wait for me to find a place where we can hide, and you can sleep afterwards. â
Zhou Xinyun: ââ¦â¦â
Zhou Xin Yun immediately jumped up, âWhat, someone is coming?â
