"Ha ha…"
Chen Wei's face was flushed, and he was breathing heavily.
His opponent, instructor Sun Bing, fell flat on his face in a very embarrassing manner.
The audience burst into laughter:
"Senior, you still say you don't do anything fun!"
"A song about the Monkey King completely broke our Monkey King's defenses!"
"Chen Wei, this medal of honor belongs to you and Senior Lu as well!"
Sun Bing got up from the ground, and after catching his breath, he glared at Lu Yibei.
"You little brat!"
Lu Yibei shrugs:
"Monkey King, we even put on your exclusive background music, and you still couldn't get it. It just means you're not as good as others. Don't blame the others."
Sun Bing pointed north of the landing site:
"Alright, alright, you little rascal..."
To be honest, Sun Bing didn't blame Lu Yibei.
We should even thank him.
Before he even started singing, Sun Bing realized he was going to lose. This little trick made these bastards think that his defeat wasn't due to a lack of skill, but rather because he was interfered with from outside the arena... which actually gave him a way out and saved him face.
Sun Bing put his hands on his hips and looked at the tall, dark-skinned freshman again.
What bad luck! She's run into another hunk.
"Chen Wei, right..."
"Yes, instructor!" Chen Wei stood at attention as if he were a new recruit reporting for duty.
"You son of a bitch... how come you're so strong?"
"Reporting to the instructor, I used to farm back home."
Sun Bing: ...
"Instructor, do you keep your word?" Chen Wei asked in a low voice.
"nonsense!"
Sun Bing's face finally flushed a little: "Judging from your expression, it seems like you're thinking of giving the reward to someone else, aren't you?"
Chen Weikuang nodded: "Yes."
“Tell me, let’s see which girl is so lucky—” Sun Bing said.
Even though he had won the competition and could name anyone, Chen Wei still felt a little embarrassed when the name was actually mentioned. He lowered his head, not daring to look at the girl, and simply uttered three words in a low voice:
“…Ji Qingqian.”
Sun Bing was speechless.
His first glance wasn't directed at the person in question, but rather at Lu Yibei.
Lu Yibei was also taken aback, then gave a wry smile.
Qingqian is really popular.
"Whoa whoa!"
"So, Chen Wei, you've got your eye on Goddess Ji, huh?"
"Goddess, look how sincere my little Wei Zi is, just accept his kindness!"
The freshmen started to cheer, their shouts rising in waves.
Ji Qingqian remained silent. She glanced at Lu Yibei, then said firmly, "No."
Chen Wei was stunned, not expecting to be rejected so decisively.
"…ah?"
Ji Qingqian fell silent again, as if organizing her thoughts for a moment, before finally managing to utter three words:
"I'm not tired."
After saying that, she looked towards her roommate Chu Chu. Chu Chu had been complaining about how tough the military training was all day long. Among the four of them, she was indeed the one with the worst physical condition, and she had been drinking Huoxiang Zhengqi Liquid for the past two days.
Ji Qingqian thought for a moment and said:
"Why don't you give it to Chu Chu? She's feeling a bit unwell."
Chu Chu: "...Huh?"
She hadn't expected that she was involved in this.
She burst into tears immediately. She had been fantasizing about a prince who could win over the instructor and then whisper softly in her ear, "My princess, I would rather you rest than me." Such a scenario actually happened, but she never expected that the prince would be Ji Qingqian.
Chen Wei's dark face was as red as if it were bleeding, whether from the embarrassment of being rejected or from the lingering excitement of his previous exertion.
After considering it for a moment, he nodded: "...Okay."
"Chu Chu, you can rest now." Sun Bing waved his hand.
Chu Chu to Chen Wei:
"Thanks."
She really was at her limit... Then she glanced at Ji Qingqian, whose back was still straight and showed no signs of fatigue.
She's a true superwoman.
Sun Bing felt that anyone connected to Lu Yibei was somewhat interesting.
Last year, Lu Yibei didn't receive an award either, saying he wanted to give it to Zhao Xun. Zhao Xun, however, said that a real man should easily handle a little military training, and, sweating profusely, gave the opportunity to... oh, I think he gave it to Liu Jie. Sun Bing finally remembered Liu Jie.
But Liu Jie didn't accept it either.
"Brother Monkey, your horse has stumbled."
One of the new students asked with a laugh, "Is this your first time losing a wrestling match with a student?"
"The second time."
Sun Bing held up two fingers. He was a loyal friend, and since this kid had gone to great lengths to save his face, he had to give him some face in front of his crush. So he brought up his embarrassing past from last year and patted Lu Yibei's chest: "I lost to this brat the first time... Damn it, otherwise why do you think I still remember him so clearly?"
The freshmen were shocked.
The same applies to Lu Yibei.
Sun Bing: "It's one thing for them to be shocked, but what are you surprised about? Have you forgotten that you beat me last year?!"
Lu Yibei: "No, I thought you remembered me so well, Monkey King, simply because I'm good-looking—"
"You're talking nonsense!"
Lu Yibei did indeed beat Monkey King once last year. Because of his father's profession, he had been training in physical fitness and combat since childhood, and had achieved some success...
In addition, Monkey King underestimated his opponent at the time, not expecting such a beast to emerge from the freshmen, and was easily defeated by him in just a few moves.
"Wow, senior, you're amazing!"
"You wouldn't believe how thin you are..."
"Senior, you're not the type who looks slim in clothes but is muscular when you take them off, are you? You definitely have abs!"
