The leagues between the two countries are still being formulated, and the registration threshold is to have participated in this year's Tiangong Competition, which is just three months away.
Although the league was originally scheduled to start a month earlier than the Tiangong competition, they later held a meeting to discuss postponing it until after the Tiangong competition to see if there were any dark horses.
The jade friends meeting organized by Xiao Jingguang of Xiaoshan Country was obviously intended to delay the jade carvers who were about to participate in the Tiangong Competition, such as Shui Yiyao. Although she had good skills, she still lacked the qualification to enter the Tiangong Competition.
There must be more emerging jade carvers like her.
If more people lose at this Jade Friends Meeting, there will be fewer people participating in the Tiangong Competition, and there will also be fewer players in the subsequent league.
China could certainly lower the standards, but it would be embarrassing to say it out loud - because there were too many people who lost to Xiao Jingguang at the Jade Friends Conference, no one participated in the league, so China had to adjust the player standards.
Like China, Xiaoshan Country is the same. The standard for participating in the league is their country's Zhuoyu Cup.
Since we're betting on the qualification to participate, let's bet everything.
After hearing Shui Yiyao's words, Zhao Bo was silent for a while: "Okay, I'll go talk to him."
Shui Yiyao: "Exactly. With so many of us, how much money can we get if we give him a glass lamp?"
Uncle Zhao gave a bitter laugh. "How can there be 'so many people'? There's only you. The Jade Friends' Meeting is in a week, and you're the only one who wants to attend."
"That's impossible." Shui Yiyao was very sure. "It's still early. Don't worry too much. Someone will definitely come."
"I hope so." Zhao Bo was still worried. He hoped that someone would participate and not be so cowardly as to not even dare to fight. But he also hoped that these excellent jade carvers would not participate. If they lost... it would be even worse.
Shui Yiyao wasn't worried: "There will be quite a few people participating. Just send me a notice and I'll go directly there."
"Okay, then you go ahead and do your thing. I'll hang up first."
After hanging up the phone, Shui Yiyao found that she had received another notification.
It’s from the New Town Center Research Institute.
[Ms. Shui, your scheduled genetic modification project has entered its second phase. Please come to the research center at 8:00 tomorrow morning to participate in the drug trial.] 8:00 tomorrow morning?
Just after receiving the message, I received a call from Ao Li.
"Chengyu." It was Ao Li's voice.
"It's me. I just saw the notice. Come to the research center at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning? Is that why you called me?"
"Yes." Ao Li spoke clearly and simply, "You will come directly tomorrow morning. You need to participate in the drug experiment. The common medicine for the sea tribe we developed before is for the first stage of use. You need to try it and see if there is any rejection reaction. If not, we will use it directly. If there is, we will need to make some changes."
"Okay, I understand."
Ao Li: "A physical examination will be arranged tomorrow morning to see if your physical condition is suitable. So, don't stay up late tonight, and don't drink too strong tea."
"good."
"If you don't meet the physical requirements, you won't be allowed to do the experiment." Ao Li's tone was serious.
"...I understand. I'll pay attention."

Shui Yiyao went to bed early at 10 o'clock, which was the first time in a long time. She drank warm water before going to bed instead of tea.
The next morning, she got up at 6 o'clock, carried her bag, and went out for a run. During this period, if she was not on a deadline, she would go out for a run.
It is already November, and the sky is still gray at 6 o'clock, but the street lights are off at 6 o'clock, and it is a little dark around.
Shui Yiyao walked out of her community and ran to the fitness square next to it. There was a running track there, and she could run six or seven laps to wake herself up and warm up. Then she went home to pack up and set off for the research institute at exactly eight o'clock.
It was cold and still early, so there was only a young couple walking on the track.
Shui Yiyao took out a sweat band from her backpack and tied it around her forehead. She put her backpack on and went to the track.
After running a lap, my body warmed up.
On the second lap, there was no one on the track, and the young man and woman seemed to have left.
Shui Yiyao continued to run.
There is a circle of dense woods on the outside of the runway. When the weather is hot, many citizens will go to the woods to cool off.
"-Help!" Shui Yiyao ran her second lap to the end of the track and heard someone struggling and calling for help in the woods nearby.
Shui Yiyao stopped in her tracks immediately, and the cry for help suddenly stopped and became weak, but she could hear it clearly, it was indeed a cry for help.
It came from the small woods next to it.
Shui Yiyao frowned, slowly took out her electric baton from her backpack, and walked towards the grove.
"...Don't shout! There's no one here! If you shout again I'll kill you!" A man's voice rang out from the bushes, deliberately lowering the volume, but filled with rage and violence.
What is going on?
Shui Yiyao held the electric baton tightly and moved inside with light steps.
"Brother Ming, I have no money, really no money, please let me go... please..." the girl cried.
"Don't pretend. Your mom only gave you these two hundred yuan? What about your financial aid and scholarship? It should be a few thousand, right? Where's the money?"
"It's all gone, Brother Ming. You know, my sister is sick, and all the money was used for her treatment..."
"Pretend! Keep pretending!"
Shui Yiyao frowned even deeper.
Scholarship grant, the girl is still a student.
She slowly moved closer, then the big tree provided cover, and she walked inside and saw clearly.
A boy stood in front of the girl, holding a schoolbag and searching through it. When he found nothing, he dropped the bag on the ground.
The man was impatient: "If you don't have money, I'll sell you. If you sell yourself to an old man like this, you can always get some money!"
The girl was anxious: "Brother Ming, I will have money soon, I will give you the protection fee next week!"
Protection money? Are there still people collecting protection money? Isn't this the work of the underworld?
The man grabbed the girl's hair and said, "Next week? In the afternoon, you have to pay me in the afternoon!"
He pinched the girl's chin with his other hand: "Otherwise, before you go to accompany the old man, have sex with me first!"
"You can't do this...someone just came onto the runway, you're bound to be discovered!" The girl was nervous and crying.
"People? She's just a yellow-haired girl about your age. What can she do? At most, she can call the police. By the time she does, I'll have already done what I did and left!"
Shui Yiyao narrowed her eyes, approached from behind the tree, looked at the back of the man's head, and raised the electric baton.
The man twitched on the spot after being hit by a stick. Shui Yiyao didn't dare to let go and turned the power to the maximum. The man continued to twitch for several seconds.
He turned around and looked at Shui Yiyao, his eyes wide open and a look of disbelief on his face.
The next second, the man's legs went weak and he fell to the ground. He pointed at Shui Yiyao and said, "You—"
Shui Yiyao waved the electric baton: "What? Do you want another one?"
She looked at the little girl and said, "Sister, come to me."
While staring at the man, she bent over to pick up the schoolbag at her feet and handed it to the girl behind her: "Sister, call the police."
·
"This is self-defense."
The police officer assured Shui Yiyao, "Self-defense not only refers to defending yourself from ongoing illegal attacks, but also refers to defending yourself from illegal attacks on others."
Another officer handcuffed the man and took him to the police car.
Shui Yiyao listened and nodded: "Okay, I'll go home if there's nothing else for me to do."
It's already 7 o'clock, I'm going home to pack up and go to the research institute.
"Thank you, sister." The girl stepped forward, bowed to Shui Yiyao with red eyes, and whispered, "Thank you."
"It's okay." Shui Yiyao leaned over slightly and touched the girl's head: "If there are bad guys, find the police uncle, don't go alone."
The girl nodded and looked at Shui Yiyao: "I remember it."
Shui Yiyao stood up and waved her hand: "Let's go, goodbye, sister."
The girl rubbed her eyes and said, "Goodbye, sister."
·
When we arrived at the institute, it was exactly 8 o'clock.
When Shui Yiyao arrived, Ao Li was waiting for her in the room.
"Mr. Ao." She walked into the room and greeted Ao Li: "Good morning."
Ao Li was reading a newspaper at the table. When he heard Shui Yiyao come in, he put the newspaper down and looked at her.
She might have walked a little fast when she came, her cheeks were slightly flushed and her eyes were watery.
Ao Li lowered his eyes slightly, stood up, and gestured to the sofa next to him: "Sit down for twenty minutes and rest. After you're well rested, we'll have the physical examination."
"Okay." Shui Yiyao nodded, walked to the sofa and sat down cooperatively.
Ao Li stood up: "I'll go prepare the equipment."
"good."
Ao Li walked out of the room.
Shui Yiyao looked and saw that this was Ao Li's office.
On the wall next to the desk, there are many medals and awards, all of which are awards for scientific research contributions, hung meticulously in rows.
There are many books on the bookshelf next to it. At a glance, they are all books like "Genetics", "Marine Ecology", "Organic Chemistry", etc., each one thicker than the other.
There is also a gun on the bookshelf, with "Type 87 Replica Model" written on the metal base.
It should be a collectible model, very handsome.
Apart from that, there isn't much else, just the usual decorations.
Shui Yiyao's eyes fell on the newspaper on Ao Li's desk - the Da Zheng Bao.
The page he was reading was "International Observation": The disaster left behind by the explosion at the nuclear power plant in Oyama Country.
·
Ao Li checked various medical devices.
Shui Yiyao has a special identity. He will do anything he can do by himself without asking anyone else for help.
He believed in the experts in the research institute. They had all participated in genetic research on the sea people and in the development of drugs that would allow the sea people to come ashore.
But just in case, it's safer for him to do it himself.
Ten minutes later.
"Director Ao, didn't you just check it?" the assistant beside him asked him puzzledly.
"Okay, that's all." Ao Li put down the monitor in his hand and walked out the door. "Go and rest. You don't need any help here."
The assistant was even more confused, but he nodded: "Okay."
Ao Li's cell phone rang, he paused and took the phone out of his pocket.
It was Bai Gege who sent him a message. Ao Li frowned and walked forward while opening the message.
Bai Gege is a junior and is afraid of him, so she usually doesn't look for him.
Could it be that something happened to Ao Yun?
Ao Li opened Bai Gege's message box.
A news link appears.
Video news.
[The beautiful woman bravely stood up for justice, defeated the gangster and saved the female student! ]
Ao Li frowned and was about to close the message box when he saw Bai Gege sent another message, which was a picture.
In the middle of the photo is Shui Yiyao, holding an electric baton, standing in front of a girl, with a hint of subtle pleasure, her chin slightly raised, and a bit of arrogance.
Ao Li stopped and clicked on the first news video.
