Rags to Riches: The Rise of a Dual-Talent Prodigy
Chapter 190 - 189: Very Convenient for Her to Do Some Things
CHAPTER 190: CHAPTER 189: VERY CONVENIENT FOR HER TO DO SOME THINGS
Because "he" is Sheng Qing’s teammate, Fan Jinghai focused on observing this student. He was worried that Sheng Qing’s teammates might be unreliable and drag Sheng Qing’s exam scores down, so he paid great attention to Sheng Qing’s team performance.
I hope Sheng Qing’s teammates won’t be too disappointing. This child is not fond of talking or socializing. If she ends up with a bad experience in her first team, that would be terrible.
Thinking this, Fan Jinghai said to the invigilator beside him, "No. 7 machine, follow the student who just left Sheng Qing’s team."
The invigilator, hearing this, quickly operated the No. 7 Flying Surveillance Ball and followed Qian Qi.
At that moment, there was still some distance to go before reaching the No. 3 Flag Point. On the big screen, the student wearing a mask was weaving through the crowd, occasionally stopping for a moment to reduce her presence.
As they approached Flag Point No. 3, the whole team began to speed up. Each team rushed forward, afraid that the limited flags would be snatched by others. About thirty Speed Type students also sped up, and their commander, like Han Li, hoped to rely on the Speed Type students in their team to grab the flag first.
But Qian Qi found that these students were all faster than her, some even like lightning, disappearing in the blink of an eye. Among the thirty Speed Type students, she actually ranked third last!
Qian Qi just wanted to turn around and commiserate with the one ranked first last and second last, but saw them stride past her leisurely with their long legs, heading forward.
Qian Qi: ...
Qian Qi, angry and powerless, punched the system.
System: ?
Why are you hitting me? Your short legs weren’t inherited from me!
The skills inherited from the Contracted Beast were already inferior to the ones awakened by herself, so Qian Qi could only accept the loss.
Such a pity, she originally intended to...
The frustrated Little Qian followed the Speed Type students, trying hard to move her little short legs, secretly praying she could grab a flag later. But as soon as she took two steps, she noticed the Speed Type students in front suddenly turned around and ran away in panic.
"What’s happening?" Qian Qi stretched her little neck, curiously looking ahead.
"Five Magic Beasts are coming in front! It’s the Black Bee Bears! Run!" the Speed Type student who turned around first shouted to the students behind to hurry back. Their attack power and defensive power were weak, encountering gigantic Magic Beasts only meant running away.
All thirty Speed Type students turned back towards the direction they came from to report to their team, and when Qian Qi saw this, she exclaimed "Aha!" She swung her small arms in excitement and said, "Opportunity!"
Thank the Magic Beasts for dropping this pie from the sky, Qian Qi remembered this!
While all the Speed Type students were frantically running back, Qian Qi was like a little shrimp swimming upstream, heading straight for the No. 3 Flag Point. This scene naturally fell into the eyes of Fan Jinghai, who had been watching her closely.
"Idiot!" Fan Jinghai couldn’t help but curse, "Running so slow, yet daring to go forward?"
Upon hearing Fan Jinghai’s voice, the principal and the other two deans also turned their eyes in the direction of his gaze and saw Qian Qi moving against the current on the big screen.
The principal watched for a while and immediately chuckled.
Oh, isn’t this Qian Qi! How did she get noticed by Fan Jinghai?
"Why are there always people with no sense!" Fan Jinghai was furious, clearly displeased with Qian Qi for dragging down Sheng Qing’s team, "This is simply suicidal, whose student is this, with no sense of safety at all? Is the knowledge they learn all going into pig brains?"
No instructor at the scene dared to make a sound, silently watching Qian Qi on the screen and secretly resenting this student with less than ideal intelligence.
"Old Fan, you’re still so hot-tempered," said Lu Jian’an, the dean of the Command Department, calmly beside him, "There will always be bad students and good students in school, it’s perfectly normal for bad students to get killed in an instance, you should just relax."
"Damn you!" Fan Jinghai cursed directly, "I don’t care how many of your Command students die, anyway, it’s better for our Skill Department to have fewer deaths, or it’ll be a disgrace to me!"
"Invigilator, record this segment separately!" Fan Jinghai pointed at the screen, his old face turning green as a banana, "At the award ceremony, play it as a negative example for all students to see, so they understand how serious the consequences of overestimating oneself are in instances!"
The invigilator beside him repeatedly agreed and prepared to note the machine number and time when suddenly an instructor shouted, "Hey, look!"
Everyone looked up and saw on the screen that Qian Qi soon encountered five Magic Beasts chasing in this direction, the five beasts were Black Bee Bears. Named for their fondness of eating a type of bee-like Magic Beast called Black-wing Bees, however, these Black Bee Bears’ curiosity was very strong, maybe they were attracted by the noise of the crowd here.
Yet, on the screen, instead of turning around and running when she saw them, Qian Qi excitedly went towards them. When the Black Bee Bear stretched its arm to strike at her, she quickly grabbed its rough, thick arm hair, and as the bear raised its arm intending to grab her with the other paw, she leaped onto its shoulder.
This swift action left the deans and instructors watching stunned. If this were done by third or fourth-year students, they wouldn’t be surprised, but these second-year students had just entered the instance, facing a four-meter-high Black Bee Bear and acting so smoothly, could it be...
"He" is a prodigy? Or trained before?
Even Fan Jinghai was taken aback, secretly thinking the Skill Department must have such a daring prodigy, but he quickly saw Qian Qi, who had just jumped onto the Black Bee Bear’s shoulder, slip and fail to stand firm, ended up tumbling down to the ground, face first, and munch on some dirt.
Fan Jinghai: ...
Everyone: ...
On the screen, Qian Qi spat out the dirt twice, didn’t bother dusting herself off, and immediately got up to run towards the No. 3 Flag Point!
The five Black Bee Bears looked at the Speed Type students who were running ahead until they disappeared and then looked at Qian Qi who was running slowly. After hesitating, they finally decided to follow Qian Qi.
"It’s over." Fan Jinghai initially harbored a glimmer of hope, but now seeing all five Black Bee Bears following Qian Qi, couldn’t help but cover his face, thinking this student wouldn’t survive.
Qian Qi didn’t expect the Black Bee Bears to follow her. If not for the bears’ large size, which made them slightly slower, she might have been caught already. However, the bears had long legs and weren’t slow when running, so the five bears kept a certain distance between them and Qian Qi, ensuring she couldn’t shake off their view while they couldn’t catch up with her.
"Forget it, chase all you want, the flag is more important..." Qian Qi muttered to herself, thinking that now she was the only one here, it was very convenient to do some shameless acts.
Soon, Qian Qi reached the No. 3 Flag point. The Flag point was very simple, only equipped with a long, silver-colored aluminum table, and a wooden box on the table, filled with a bunch of small green flags, with the number "3" marked on the flag surface.
Qian Qi stared at the box for a while. Just when Fan Jinghai and the others were wondering why she didn’t grab a flag and run for her life, they saw Qian Qi extend her arms and pick up the box from the table and run away.
"Heh heh heh heh heh—" On the screen, Qian Qi laughed very brazenly, "Help you guys attract the Black Bee Bears, these flags are my gift to you old grandpa!"
The principals and instructors who witnessed all this: ...
This is so shameless!
[Wow... you really...] The system was shocked by her shamelessness, [What do you want so many flags for?]
