CHAPTER 234: CHAPTER 234: SEXY JI YOU, ONLINE CREEP

Mu Jianling said, "Are you sure?"

Ji You felt a little nervous inside, but she still believed her choice was right. This Yu Yi always acted by the book in the Combat Department, seeming utterly unremarkable, and he was quiet and reserved, looking like an easy target.

Ji You trusted her judgment.

Mu Jianling looked at Yu Yi and asked, "Yu Yi, do you agree?"

Yu Yi nodded and said, "I accept classmate Ji You’s challenge."

Ji You looked around and then asked, "Teacher, can I freely choose what the challenge will be?" If it were purely about Physical Strength or combat skills, Ji You really wasn’t sure that she could have an advantage.

So—

She hoped to continue holding the initiative and choose something she was proficient in.

As soon as she said this, there was silence all around.

Clever!

Really clever.

Mu Jianling didn’t look at Ji You but turned towards Yu Yi instead, saying, "What do you think?"

Yu Yi was a very reticent person and didn’t say much, simply saying, "I will let classmate Ji You choose."

Ji You’s eyes immediately lit up as she looked at Yu Yi’s straightforward, honest face and found him even more agreeable.

Look~

That’s what a gentleman is.

Ji You was not the type to secretly want something but outwardly reject it; she followed her heart. As soon as she heard Yu Yi agree, she immediately said loudly, "Classmate Yu Yi, I challenge you to a mechanical driving skill competition. How about we both pilot our own Mechas and have a good, fair fight?"

Yu Yi nodded: "Alright."

The reason Ji You made this decision was that after comprehensive consideration, she believed it was the area where she had the greatest advantage. Many people, including top students like Yue Qiguang, hadn’t fully mastered Mechas yet. Ji You owned a Small Mecha, so she wasn’t worried about agility or Reflex. Now, she just needed to pay attention to techniques.

Both parties agreed, and a training room was cleared out to serve as the venue for their duel.

Then, Mu Jianling suddenly announced, "To standardize, all subsequent challenges shall be decided through Mecha duels."

"Ah?"

"Don’t want to..."

"No way..."

Hearing this, the students preparing for challenges immediately started to wail. Each student had different strengths. Since they were all new to Mecha piloting, many were quite unskilled, and the idea of a Mecha duel took away many people’s confidence in victory.

But since Mu Jianling had decided, no one could change it. Therefore, all the following challenges were decided by Mecha duels.

Ji You, who had caused this outcome, didn’t have the time nor the inclination to sympathize with others. As soon as she entered the cockpit of the Small Mecha, she immediately began to prepare intently.

And what about Yu Yi?

Yu Yi also entered his cockpit at the first opportunity.

Both situated on either side, they faced each other.

Ji You was surprised: "You’re actually piloting the Wind Wing?" True, it was completely unexpected.

Yu Yi smiled and said, "I have a good sense of balance and can run fairly fast."

Seeing his calm and composed demeanor, Ji You suddenly felt a jolt in her heart.

Could it be...

Could it be that she had bitten off more than she could chew?

Thinking back, were there any standout Wind Wing pilots in the Combat Department?

No...

She didn’t recall any.

Ji You’s expression suddenly became serious, casting away all her nervousness. Since she had already decided to challenge him, there was no point in boosting his morale or dampening her own spirit.

So, what’s there to fear?

It’s just about meeting the enemy head-on and adapting to whatever comes.

Ji You connected the Spiritual Connector and said, "Yu Yi, I’m starting."

As soon as the words left her mouth, Ji You immediately fired a shot at the opponent.

Boom—

The shot, unsurprisingly, missed its mark. Yu Yi piloted the Wind Wing with extreme speed, nimbly dodging Ji You’s attack, and in an instant, charged in front of Ji You, unleashing a blast from the Energy Cannon.

Ji You perceived the danger and immediately dodged.

Yu Yi was indeed fast, and his timing was excellent. Being at the center of the battle, Ji You might not have had such a direct impression, but the surrounding students watching the battle immediately noticed the signs:

This shot, Ji You couldn’t dodge it easily.

So?

Did she bump into an iron board?

The Wind Wing, being one of the basic Mecha in the interstellar era with one of the highest usage rates, and one that has been continuously improved over the years, had another advantage besides its speed—it was extremely suitable for surprise attacks.

Yu Yi clearly understood this and launched a fatal attack with a surprise maneuver against Ji You.

Just when everyone thought Ji You had no chance of escape and could only take the hit, Ji You made a move that caught everyone off guard. Instead of evading, she pushed the Small Mecha forward, violently colliding with Yu Yi’s Wind Wing.

Crash—

Boom—

The sound of the collision and the blast of the cannon fire erupted almost simultaneously.

Rumbling...

Sparks flew in all directions.

Hit by a cannon and having collided with the opponent, inside the cockpit, Ji You felt the surroundings shaking violently, and she felt a bit dizzy. The sensation of a physical battle and the Star Network simulation battlefield was indeed vastly different.

Not just Ji You, Yu Yi was also affected by the cannon fire and the violent collision, feeling a bit dizzy as well.

This scene truly unfolded before everyone’s eyes; the surrounding students were in disbelief: "???"

Under normal circumstances, shouldn’t one be dodging?

This approach of No. 4444, completely self-destructive, is even more foolish than the saying "injure the enemy 1,000 and self-harm 800"...

What’s she doing?

Has her brain short-circuited?

Suddenly—

The eyes of the crowd flashed, noticing the seemingly immobile Small Mecha, when faced with the much larger Wind Wing, suddenly made a move.

Hmm?

As everyone was puzzled, Ji You made a sudden plunge, grabbing onto the Wind Wing. Due to the Small Mecha being smaller, when it tightly hugged the Wind Wing, it only reached halfway up, and this hug was right at the Wind Wing’s rear, making the posture of this hug indecent and lewd.

The crowd felt a collective facepalm.

The dizzy Yu Yi also seemed to realize something was amiss and immediately began to move. He shook his body fiercely trying to shake off the Small Mecha, but—the Small Mecha was like a curse, impossible to cast off.

Damn sticky plaster!

Damn it!

This is totally like a sticky plaster!

Yu Yi was shocked and initially a bit panicked, but after a while, he thought of a countermeasure. He suddenly accelerated the thrusters, rushing forward at high speed, hoping to use his speed advantage to shake off Ji You...

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh—

Yu Yi’s speed reached its limit in an instant, and the onlookers only saw streaks of light flashing by, almost like trailing phantoms, completely unable to spot the exact location.

But!!!

The damn sticky plaster, the sleazy Ji You, actually held steady onto the Wind Wing without falling off.

The crowd was confused, "What’s going on?"

Did she use super glue?

In a rather unremarkable place within the crowd, Yue Qiyuan watched this familiar scene, a memory buried deep in his heart that he never intended to surface, suddenly began to awaken, and Yue Qiyuan’s face grew darker and darker...
