Chapter 38



Since Xiao Qiong and his team agreed to rematch, the senior students who were making a lot of noise immediately quieted down.

Wright knew that it was the people on the board of directors who were behind this, and he was furious.

But he also knew that now that things had come to this, this competition was inevitable.

During the school selection, Song Nanting and his team used a trick to win the competition. Although it was allowed by the rules, it was considered unfair in the eyes of outsiders. This was one of the reasons why this matter caused such a big fuss.

Therefore, the only solution now is for them to win these two competitions beautifully and shut everyone up completely.

However, he still felt very uncomfortable when he thought about the internal fighting in their college when the four-school league was approaching. He finally understood the helpless and sad mood of Principal Baker at that time.

Compared with the complicated mood of Teacher Wright, the students' thoughts were much simpler, that is, to win, to win them hard!

Since the participants of the ring competition and team competition were decided, everyone felt a sense of urgency, especially the four students who participated in the ring competition with Xiao Qiong.

Although Xiao Qiong took the initiative to undertake most of the tasks, for them, the two of them had to deal with a senior student, and they were still a little flustered. Fortunately, Song Nanting was there.

Eric rushed into the training room like a whirlwind: "The list of participants for the senior students is out!"

Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at Eric.

Eric didn't even bother to drink water, and quickly took out the list of names and put it on the table.

Song Nanting glanced at them and found that they were all familiar names. These were the people she asked to "take care of" during the school selection. They came with great momentum, and they might have personal grudges against them.

Eric added, "I heard that the last person in their ring match this time is likely to be Julian."

Song Nanting looked at Xiao Qiong and Gu Xingmian, and said with a smile, "This is really a narrow road for enemies."

Xiao Qiong was as cold as ever, but Gu Xingmian was murderous and determined to give him a good beating in this ring match.

Song Nanting's fingers gently pointed at a few names: "The God Cards of these people are not suitable for cooperation. They are likely to participate in the ring match. As for the rest..."

She suddenly stopped.

Everyone looked in the direction of her fingertips, and it was the three words "Song Sitian".

Regarding the grievances between Song Nanting and Song Sitian, everyone actually knew more or less.

Song Nanting usually acted decisively, but he kept dragging his feet on the matter of Song Sitian.

With Song Nanting's means, it would not be difficult for her to kill Song Sitian, but she never really took any action against Song Sitian. She just let her bully her. Of course, it was because Song Sitian's means could not hurt Song Nanting at all, but part of the reason was because of the Song family's uncle and aunt.

Song Nanting lost her parents when she was young. Her uncle and aunt treated her like their own daughter. Except for the fact that they did nothing about Song Sitian bullying her, they never treated her badly in other matters.

No matter what the reason was, Song Nanting had mixed feelings when facing Song Sitian.

After the school selection, those senior students completely changed their views on Song Nanting, realized her importance, and even had deep jealousy towards her.

They must have guessed that Song Nanting would participate in the team competition. In order to deal with her and disturb her mind, they would rather waste a spot on Song Sitian.

Otherwise, how could Song Sitian, a card master who couldn't even make it to the school selection, make it to this list.

After listening to Gu Xingmian's analysis.

Everyone: "Fuck! So despicable!!"

Nina was so angry that she wanted to slam the table again: "It must be that bastard Julian who thought of it! He likes to use such shady means the most!"

Gu Xingmian looked at Song Nanting worriedly: "Are you okay?"

However, the person involved, Song Nanting, was silent for a moment, and soon returned to normal: "Nothing."

After that, Song Nanting continued to analyze the opposing contestants and their response strategies as if nothing had happened.

It was not until the end of a day's training that Song Nanting dragged her tired body back to the dormitory. She did not turn on the light and just fell on her back on the bed.

Suddenly, her communicator rang.

She hesitated for a moment before answering it. A familiar voice came from the other side. It was her uncle and aunt.

The two of them first asked her about her well-being, and then asked in a roundabout way: "Nanting, I heard that you are going to have a competition soon, and it seems that your sister is also participating?"

Although Song Nanting had already guessed that her uncle and aunt called her because of Song Sitian's participation in the competition, her heart still sank for a moment when she really heard it.

She paused before saying, "Yes."

"That's great!" The aunt said softly, "Nanting, you know that your sister is clumsy and not as good as you. We were worried that she would get injured in the competition. Knowing that you are also participating, your aunt is relieved. Thank you for taking care of your sister."

Song Nanting raised a sarcastic smile at the corner of his lips and said softly, "Aunt, Song Sitian and I are rivals."

The aunt's gentle voice seemed to be stuck, and the communicator was taken by the uncle: "Nanting, Tiantian said that she had participated in that competition with great difficulty. It is very important to her. She is not like you. She has participated in so many competitions since she was a child and won so many awards. It doesn't matter even if she loses one award. Just think of it as your uncle begging you, just... let your sister go."

The uncle's words seemed to bring Song Nanting's memory back to a long time ago.

"Nanting is really amazing, but can you not hand it in during class tomorrow, so that your sister can get first place for once? Otherwise, she will cry again when she comes back..."

"Nanting, this doll is old, since your sister likes it, can you give it to your sister first, and your aunt will buy you a new one tomorrow."

"Nanting, you are the best, please give your sister yours..."

...

Song Nanting knew that she was not the biological child of her uncle and aunt, and it was normal for them to put Song Sitian before her. They were so good to her, so it was okay for her to give way to Song Sitian.

So every time they said this, no matter how upset she was and how much she wanted it, she held back.

But in the end, she was unwilling.

Sometimes there would be two voices fighting in Song Nanting's heart.

One side said that her uncle and aunt had worked hard to raise her, and she should be grateful. What's wrong with just letting Song Sitian go?

But the other side said that she did live in the Song family, but the money she used to raise her was her parents' pension. Even without them, she could grow up on her own. Even if it was really her uncle and aunt who raised her, she could repay them in other ways. Why did they force her to give up all the important and beloved things to Song Sitian?

But Song Nanting also knew that it would be great if she could distinguish right from wrong so easily.

In any case, her uncle and aunt's care and love for her could not be faked, but sometimes, she would rather they were a little mean and cruel to her, so that she could hate them without any burden, instead of being cut by a soft knife all the time.

"Nanting, Nanting..."

The voice of the uncle called Song Nanting back to consciousness, "Nanting, just promise your uncle!"

"Uncle." Song Nanting said lightly, "Not everything can be given up. If I give it up, Song Sitian can't keep it."

"Song Nanting, how can you talk like that!"

Song Nanting said decisively: "What's mine is mine, broken or old, it's still mine, I won't give it to anyone."

After she finished speaking, she hung up the communicator and blocked the communication numbers of her uncle and aunt.

After doing all this, she thought she would be sad and regretful, but the fact was that she only felt a long sigh of relief, as if the heavy stone in her heart was removed, and even her breathing became much lighter.

At this moment, her communicator rang again. She thought it was Song Sitian who came to ask for an explanation, but it turned out to be Nina.

As soon as the call was connected, Nina hurriedly said, "Nanting! Are you okay?"

Song Nanting was a little puzzled: "I'm fine, what's wrong?"

Nina breathed a sigh of relief and said like a machine gun: "When I took Molly out for a walk just now, I heard Song Sitian talking to her parents on the intercom, saying that she had a big fight with you. I tell you, they are not good people, don't feel sorry for them!"

Song Nanting was silent.

Nina was still chattering there, saying that everyone had discussed it. Gu Xingmian said that he and Xiao Qiong would beat Julian hard in the ring match, saying that if he didn't beat him so hard that he called her mother, he would take her surname!

Song Nanting: "..."

There was no need to swear such a poisonous oath.

"A-choo--"

Gu Xingmian rubbed his nose, "Someone scolded me, ah! It must be that bastard Julian!"

Xiao Qiong looked at him helplessly. Ever since he knew Julian was going to participate in the competition, Gu Xingmian scolded him three times a day. Sometimes he would mutter a few words even when he was half asleep in his spiritual body.

After cursing, Gu Xingmian stared at the auxiliary card in front of him with a deep hatred.

This was the fifth auxiliary card he had eaten today.

Before this, Gu Xingmian could only eat four auxiliary cards a day at most, and he was already bloated, but in order to be safer during Xiao Qiong's competition, he still forced himself to eat one more card every day.

Although he would feel uncomfortable for a long time after eating each time, he never backed down.

Even if they calculated that even if Gu Xingmian only ate four cards a day, it would be enough for him to use his skills on the day of the competition.

Not only that, he also practiced various body movements and physical skills every day.

Xiao Qiong knew that he was a person who loved to eat and have fun, and he had advised him not to push himself so hard.

Gu Xingmian's answer was "no".

Just like he refused to stay in his spiritual body at the beginning.

He never wanted to be a person who depended on others.

What he wanted to do was to be Xiao Qiong's teammate, a teammate who could support him and trust his life!

Since then, Xiao Qiong never said such words again. He just silently supported Gu Xingmian in his own way.

Gu Xingmian swallowed the last bit of energy with difficulty, restraining the feeling of wanting to vomit, and felt that his stomach was about to burst.

Seeing this, Xiao Qiong said, "Do you want to stay in my spiritual body for a while?"

Gu Xingmian waved his hand and said, "No, I feel like I'm going to explode if I move now."

At this time, he could still think in a happy way that he was like the kind of person who went to a buffet and stuffed food into his throat in order to make a profit, and had to hold on to the wall to get out.

However, as this energy was slowly absorbed by him, he vaguely felt that the speed of accumulating energy this time seemed to be faster than before.

He immediately told Xiao Qiong about this discovery.

Xiao Qiong calculated in his mind for a moment and said, "If you calculate it this way, the energy you need to charge these times seems to be decreasing."

Gu Xingmian suddenly realized, "It seems to be true!"

He suddenly remembered that when he was unconscious, he saw the starry sky, and the star patterns he had seen seemed to appear on it, and the stars in the star patterns flashed at a different frequency from other stars, as if they were breathing.

So, is it possible that these star patterns are providing him with energy?

If so, the more star patterns there are, the more energy they provide him. Maybe one day, he won't need auxiliary cards, and he can be self-sufficient with these star patterns alone.

Then, will his interference skills be able to be used unlimitedly?

Gu Xingmian was excited by his own imagination.

"Hehehe..."

Xiao Qiong looked at Gu Xingmian who was grinning, wondering what he was thinking.

Alas, the road to tacit understanding is long and arduous!
