Chapter 396: The Basho Snake Swallows the Dragon
After class, Chen Wei said to Yu Xiumin beside him: "Let's postpone today's alchemy party for another day. I have a competition to deal with tonight."
"Then let's all go to the scene tonight to cheer for the captain?"
Yu Xianglu on the side looked at everyone.
"That's not necessary. It's just a beast control competition. I can handle it quickly. If you follow me, the competition site may be crowded with your suitors." Chen Wei laughed and teased.
Hearing this, Yu Xianglu subconsciously glanced at the sunny young man not far behind him, and couldn't help but feel more annoyed with Huang Yangze's existence.
Huang Yangze is a famous flower veteran in Zidan University. Because of his strong strength, he ranked fifth on the Ziwei list in his senior year, and there is never a lack of girls around him.
However, for some reason, he launched a fierce offensive against her during this period.
Although the Yu family and the Huang family still maintain some contact, Yu Xianglu still did not give Huang Yangze a good look.
"Captain, what suitors? They are just a bunch of annoying guys."
Yu Xianglu complained, "Before I become a master alchemist, I won't consider love. It's too troublesome, captain, don't you think so?"
Hearing this, Yu Yang looked at his cousin in surprise.
On weekdays, you practice alchemy and always talk about Captain Chen Wei. Now who would believe you if you said you want to concentrate on practice?
Sure enough, the more beautiful the girl, the easier it is to deceive people!
"Yes, falling in love is too superficial. Concentrate on practice, in order to live a long life, and finally serve the country or travel all over the world is what we pursue!" Chen Wei nodded slightly.
It's not easy for him to train a qualified alchemist leek with great effort.
If the members become love-brained and run to love, instead of working hard to improve their alchemy skills, wouldn't the source of Dan Qi for Lingmou be reduced a lot!
Hearing Chen Wei's praise, Yu Xianglu's eyebrows curved and smiled.
The captain has lofty ambitions and wants to become a powerful dragon rider and a master alchemist, and live a thousand years.
In order to follow the captain's footsteps, always stand by the captain's side, and become a qualified partner, she will not waste time and energy on matters between men and women.
"Chen Wei, are you sure you can win?" Yu Xiumin said worriedly.
"Han Wuguang has been ranked first on the Ziwei list for many years, suppressing thousands of talented beast masters, and his strength is very strong!"
At this point, Chen Wei's face showed a trace of solemnity, "Before the real head-on confrontation, I am not sure of winning based on the partial information collected so far."
Yu Xiumin was slightly stunned. She has known Chen Wei for so long, but this is the first time she has seen Chen Wei so afraid of someone.
Wu Yaojin asked curiously: "Then how sure are you, captain?"
Chen Wei looked up at her and said in a heavy tone: "Only 88% sure."
If it is just a competition of pet strength, he is 100% sure, but the trouble involved in this game seems to be more than he imagined.
Everyone: "???"
Wu Sixi couldn't help but reach out and hug Chen Wei's neck like a buddy.
"Eighty-eighty, what's the difference between this certainty and winning, Captain, are you kidding us?"
She tilted her head to look at her teammates for approval, and then saw Yu Xiumin and Yu Xianglu staring at her arms and chest with covetous eyes.
Wu Sixi's body stiffened, and subconsciously loosened her arms, "Sorry, Captain, I'm a little excited."
Chen Wei, whose eyes were briefly drowned in the huge darkness, coughed lightly, "It doesn't matter, we are all teammates, even if it happens again, what's the harm."
...
All major events that happened in Zidan University could not escape the attention of the school's senior leaders, and they even deliberately fanned the flames behind the scenes, so that the news of the battle for the top spot on the Ziwei list spread to Zidan City and even Nanjiang Province.
Tan Xueqing happened to be sitting on the sofa with her teacher Han Jiuyao and chatting about this storm.
One of them is a queen and the other is a lolita. Judging from their appearance, many people may mistake Tan Xueqing for the teacher.
"Teacher, Junior Brother Chen Wei has already started challenging the first place in Ziwei!"
"Well, I know. Any questions?"
"Director Tan Yongzhi hopes that Junior Brother Chen Wei will admit defeat in the battle, so that Han Wuguang can maintain the top position of the Ziwei list for the last year and complete the honor of three years of championship.
As a price, he can compensate Junior Brother Chen Wei with 360,000 credits, a seventh-level medium-grade defense source device and a captain's place in the National Beast Taming Competition."
"Interesting, Tan Yongzhi really doesn't even want the face of a legendary strongman in order to let his disciple enter the list of Donghua Country's Tianjiao!" Han Jiuyao shook his head slightly, as if it was a little incredible.
You know, with Han Wuguang's strength, he is definitely not afraid of Chen Wei. Tan Yongzhi probably has other intentions for doing this.
"What does Chen Wei say?"
"Junior Brother said that everything depends on the teacher's ideas." Tan Xueqing said softly.
"Then let him go all out. My disciples, Han Jiuyao, either don't compete or win first place."
Han Jiuyao smiled contemptuously.
"Tan Yongzhi is really crazy. Match-fixing will only ruin Chen Wei and Han Wuguang, two unpolished gems."
"I understand!" Tan Xueqing breathed a sigh of relief.
In an ancient and luxurious office, Tan Yongzhi listened to his subordinates' reports, with no surprise on his calm face.
"Rejected? An expected answer."
"It's a pity that Chen Wei's talent and luck are extremely amazing. If he can win directly, Wu Guang can easily use [Ba Snake Swallowing Dragon] to devour part of Chen Wei's talent and luck, thereby enhancing his potential. I'm afraid he will become a genius by then. The first three are not a problem.”
Tan Yongzhi thought in his mind.
"Forget it, since it doesn't work out, let's forget it. With Wu Guang's strength, it will not be difficult to defeat Chen Wei. By the way, let's continue with the arrangement. This time, the battle for the top spot in the Ziwei Competition will be broadcast live nationwide. Do you understand?"
"Yes, understand."
Watching his subordinates leave the office, Tan Yongzhi murmured: "Wu Guang, I have arranged an excellent stage for you this time. With the wishes of the national audience, your talent may be able to greatly swallow up Chen Wei's terrifying aura." Luck, I hope you won’t disappoint me.”
…
Night fell, and soon it was time for the Ziwei competition to start.
Driven by Tan Yongzhi's backing, many students who admired Chen Wei or Han Wuguang came to the battle square to cheer.
There were thousands of beastmasters in the auditorium alone.
"There are a lot of people. Fortunately, we grabbed a seat in advance." Yu Xiumin, who was sitting in the front row, said thankfully.
"Ah, Chen Wei is here! Chen Wei is number one, I love you!"
When Chen Wei stepped onto the fighting stage, a sharp female voice sounded in the crowded auditorium.
"This voice seems familiar?"
Chen Wei subconsciously looked in the direction where the sound came from, and all he saw were excited and unfamiliar faces.
