Chapter 12 Engineering Girl, Jinx
"He actually gave up!?"
Although Qin Shi had expected this in his heart.
He was still surprised when he saw Lin Pinzhi on the stage really give up.
A graduation ceremony is only once in a person's life.
For the residents of their third-tier cities.
Participating in the graduation ceremony is their only chance to enter the Monster Hunting Academy.
To put it another way.
Even if they lose the competition, it is still a great opportunity to show themselves.
Many university admissions representatives are sitting in the audience, and these students who go on stage to compete will be their first admission targets.
After all, as long as they can get on this stage and have the opportunity to try their best, they are already the pride of many graduates.
But the burly man in front of him actually chose to give up.
"Tsk, he doesn't even dare to compete. This student is big, but he is very timid."
In the admissions area, many university admissions teachers have expressed dissatisfaction.
Against the backdrop of the invasion of monsters, the whole country of Kyushu advocates martial arts.
Give up before the battle, this is the most shameful behavior of the people of Kyushu.
"I think this A-level big guy is not as good as the fat guy in the first game. Although he was beaten badly, at least he dared to fight!"
"I think he was scared by the strange power of the girl from the Su family and didn't even dare to compete."
"How can such a person be qualified to enter the Demon Hunting Academy!"
"I heard that this student can use rock magic, and our Jiuzhou Architecture Academy wanted to recruit him. Now it seems that he is not qualified to enter our academy!"
"..."
Under the ring, there was a lot of noise.
Doubts and sighs were heard everywhere.
"No, this man should not be so cowardly..."
Qin Shi looked at the man on the ring.
In the noise.
Lin Pinzhi lowered his head, clenched his fists, and his fingertips were pinched white.
He clenched his teeth and bit his lips with blood unconsciously.
"Okay, since you have admitted defeat, get off the stage quickly."
The referee held the microphone and his voice was like a duck.
"I... I'm not willing, I'm not willing!"
Stirred by the words of the crowd, Lin Pinzhi's eyes were red and bloodshot.
He waved his fists as if struggling.
"Okay, okay, since this young man is unwilling and wants to compete with my little girl, let's give him another chance."
On the rostrum, Su Baizang, leaning against a recliner, slowly took the microphone in front of him.
On the side, the tall and beautiful Su Xiaoxiao was standing behind the old man, picking up the white hair on the old man's head, and didn't even look at the opponent on the ring.
"I think your parents will be proud that they have such a brave child."
Su Baizang stood up, stared at the burly boy on the ring, and said with a smile.
He emphasized the pronunciation of the word "parents".
"Now, I'll ask you again, are you sure you don't want to give up?"
"Young man, I think no matter what decision you make, your parents should be very relieved..."
When he heard "parents", Lin Pinzhi, who was full of anger just now, suddenly wilted like an eggplant hit by frost.
He lowered his head and staggered off the stage.
"I... give up..."
Amid the spitting of the crowd, the burly boy pushed through the crowd and disappeared from everyone's sight.
In the rest area, Qin Shi's eyes were even colder.
Giving up, this is Lin Pinzhi's personal decision, and as a contestant, he has no right to interfere.
But Qin Shi guessed the reason why Lin Pinzhi gave up.
"Is... your parents threatened by the Su family!?"
Qin Shi murmured.
He looked at Lin Pinzhi's back as if he had lost his soul, and said word by word.
"Don't worry, I will make the Su family father and daughter... pay the price!"
The storm gradually subsided.
The referee cleared his throat and began to call the next group of contestants.
"The next group, Chen Fu from Xiacheng District High School vs. Tao Baibai from Qingshui High School."
"Xiao Fu is going to play?"
Qin Shi sat up straight, his eyes sparkling.
On the stage, a petite girl with twin ponytails slowly walked onto the stage.
Chen Fu, a genius girl from Xiacheng District High School, has a baby face and two cute little tiger teeth.
She looks like a loli.
But cuteness is only one of her characteristics.
As the most hardworking girl in the school, Qin Shi can't even match her science and engineering scores.
"Since entering the third year of high school, we've seen each other less."
Qin Shi sighed.
She lives not far from Qin Shi and Zhang Hao, and they've been good friends since childhood. She's been following them since they were young.
However, the third year of high school is intense, and Chen Fu is a well-known hard worker. When they meet on the road, they just say hello and rush back to the classroom to read.
Although this world is based on inheritance, for most people, the inheritance they get is not very powerful.
Therefore, solid learning of liberal arts, science and engineering knowledge is still the way of survival for most students.
Especially for those who live in the lower city with poor family conditions like them.
"I remember Xiaofu is B-level, Jinx's inheritance."
Qin Shi thought with his hand on his neck.
Jinx, nicknamed "Baobao".
She is a little girl living in the Fandel Tavern in the other world "War of Two Cities", and she often tinkers with some small inventions.
She has the talent to make bombs and is also very good at using firearms.
In the world of Earth without magic, this natural-born bomber must be a headache for the government.
But in Kyushu, where inheritance dominates the world, it is not that powerful.
Even if we only consider the bomb ability, Jinx's destructive power is inferior to the bomb demon in Hunter x Hunter, let alone Kira Yoshikage in JOJO.
Although the rating is still B-level, her combat ability is also relatively weak in B-level.
However, her superb mechanical manufacturing talent is much more dazzling than her combat ability.
"Her opponent is an A-level inheritor."
Qin Shi looked at the man opposite with his hands behind his back and wearing a training suit, and couldn't help sweating for Chen Fu.
Tao Baibai, listening to the students behind him, is one of the only four A-level inheritors this year.
The inheritor is Tao Baibai, who has the same pronunciation as his name, in the Dragon Ball world.
Tao Baibai, the former world's number one killer in the Dragon Ball world, the younger brother of Crane Immortal, was hired by the Red Ribbon Corps to hunt down the protagonist Sun Wukong.
"This is a natural killer, a combat-type inheritance that can kill the general of the Red Ribbon Army with its tongue!"
"In this battle, I just hope that Xiao Fu doesn't get hurt!"
Qin Shi recalled the time when the three of them played together.
Under the osmanthus tree on campus, Chen Fu once mentioned her dream.
"I want to enter Tiangong College!"
When Qin Shi and Zhang Hao first heard the dream of this petite girl, they were shocked.
"With your height, you are probably not as tall as a machine tool, and you still want to do scientific research!?"
Tiangong College is the first science and technology college in Kyushu, and is known as the three major colleges in Kyushu together with the Demon Hunting College and Hua Tuo College.
Although the students' combat capabilities are relatively average, most of them have a pair of skillful hands and a strong scientific spirit.
B-level, A-level and even S-level are not uncommon in the college.
The dean of Tiangong is named Lei Yuan, and his inheritance is S-level, Urahara Kisuke in the world of death.
The scientific research team he organized analyzed, imitated and improved thousands of drops from other worlds, greatly promoting the scientific and technological development of Kyushu.
"Don't think that you can become a strong engineering girl just because you have good grades..."
The fat man Zhang Hao laughed and patted Chen Fu's shoulder.
The macho man's strength made the petite girl tremble again and again.
"I must enter Tiangong College!"
Apart from Zhang Hao's dirty hands, Chen Fu's face was full of determination.
Qin Shi knew that Chen Fu's father was a front-line artilleryman of the Jiuzhou Army.
But he died in a battle with monsters when a shell exploded.
And Tiangong College is responsible for the development of Jiuzhou military firearms and civilian technology.
Chen Fu didn't want her father's tragedy to happen again.
"Come on, Xiaofu, I believe in you!"
Qin Shi smiled and encouraged her.
"My brother still understands me when I was a child."
Chen Fu grinned, revealing two small tiger teeth.
