The gloating of the survivors, the sympathy of the eliminated, and the many onlookers eager for drama all focused on her in an instant.

The gazes fixed on Qiao Lin made her feel extremely uncomfortable, but she couldn't care less about that at the moment.

Qiao Lin was still unwilling to give up, clinging tightly to Du Jinshan's collar like a last straw:

"Then... what about our other flags? The red flag is gone, so be it! But we also stole a yellow flag and four green flags from others, right? That's a total of sixty points! Sixty points! Enough for us to squeeze into the top three! Where are the flags?!"

Upon hearing this, Du Jinshan's face turned even uglier. He was already seething with anger because of being eliminated, and now being questioned by Qiao Lin like this made him even angrier and more ashamed.

He didn't even dare to look into Qiao Lin's fiery eyes, his voice barely a whisper: "And...and they're all gone...they took them all..."

"What?!"

Qiao Lin was completely stunned. She stared blankly at Du Jinshan, as if she couldn't understand what he was saying.

That's all?

All gone?

How could they all be gone?

A few seconds later, an uncontrollable rage surged from the bottom of his heart to the top of his head!

"waste!"

Qiao Lin raised her hand and, with all her might, slapped Du Jinshan hard across the face!

"Smack!"

The crisp sound was particularly jarring on the silent mountaintop, causing everyone to gasp.

"Du Jinshan! You're a complete waste! I teamed up with you to protect me! And what did you do? You couldn't even hold a few flags! What good are you! I was blind! You spineless coward!"

Du Jinshan was completely stunned by the slap. Half of his face swelled up at a visible speed, burning with pain, but his heart ached even more.

He fought desperately to help her win the red flag, only to be stabbed in the back and eliminated like a dead dog, all he got in return was a "good-for-nothing".

He also lost his temper, covering his face and yelling back at Qiao Lin: "Me, a coward? Qiao Lin, can't you be reasonable! If it weren't for helping you grab that lousy flag, would I have been surrounded by so many people? Let me tell you, I have an exemption for first place in the shooting assessment! Even if I don't get a single point, I won't be eliminated! Why would I risk my life? Who am I doing this for?!"

"Immunity?" Qiao Lin exclaimed as if she had heard the funniest joke in the world. "What's an immunity! I want the top three! A glorious first place! Not your useless immunity! I must have been blind to choose such a useless thing as you! You can't even beat a few women!"

Just as the two were fighting like dogs and publicly tearing each other apart, a small, thin figure slowly stood up from the other end of the "death zone".

It's Li Yue.

She walked slowly, but every step seemed to tread on everyone's hearts.

She walked up to Qiao Lin, looking at her "good sister" who had been aloof just a moment ago but was now acting like a shrew, and a smile of pleasure mixed with sadness appeared on her face.

"Qiao Lin, when you called him a coward, did you ever think about what you told me back then?"

The noise from the mountaintop miraculously quieted down.

Li Yue paused, her gaze sweeping over Du Jinshan's face, which had turned a deep purplish-red, before returning to Qiao Lin.

"You said Du Jinshan has immunity, he's a strongman, and following him is the only way to have a future. You said I'm a loser, I'll only drag you down. You could abandon me, your good friend, without hesitation for this so-called strongman, but now you despise him for being a good-for-nothing?"

Li Yue took a step forward, staring intently at Qiao Lin, whose jaw was clenched and face was deathly pale. She pointed a finger at the glaring blue paint stain on Qiao Lin's training uniform, her voice filled with cold mockery:

"What's even more ridiculous is that the powerful person you went to great lengths to curry favor with failed to protect you, while you were personally eliminated by me, the 'loser' you called yourself. What right do you have to complain about others being trash?"

"You..." Qiao Lin was speechless, her face turning from red to white.

Du Jinshan was also stunned. He looked at Li Yue, then at Qiao Lin, and instantly understood what was going on.

It turns out that in her eyes, I was nothing more than a stepping stone that could be used and discarded at any time.

He chuckled self-deprecatingly and spat at Qiao Lin: "She's right! A selfish woman like you deserves it! I must have had the worst luck in eight lifetimes to be on your team!"
