Chapter 123 Obstacle Race
Bai Mufeng was speechless at his teammates' persistent requests.
It is true that he has Miss Jiang Qin’s computer number, but isn’t it a bit too embarrassing to contact her for such a thing?
And she still remembers the help he had given her before.
If he spoke, she would probably be embarrassed, right?
So no matter how long his teammates wailed, he remained unmoved.
After they finished making a fuss, their coach finally took pity on him and helped him out after seeing how ridiculous he was.
"Okay, stop messing around, let's discuss our plan for tomorrow."
Although we are still thinking about the follow-up, everyone becomes serious when talking about the competition.
Although, they have basically been determined to be at the bottom.
…
The next day was the obstacle course.
The sky is filled with many floating objects, and the car needs to avoid them and run three laps.
Still three wheels.
Ranked by score.
Jiang Qin was not invited to warm up the audience today, so there was only singing and dancing in the stands.
Among the players on the field, she could only recognize the one named Gu Tianyou, because he, Bai Mufeng and Lan Shaoyu always sat in the corner of the bar.
So she had a very deep impression of the three of them.
They seemed to be there simply to listen to the music.
After all, before she became an A-rank female, her soothing power had little effect on them.
But she still saw them occasionally.
Of course, before being kidnapped, she only took a quick glance at them and had a slight impression of them.
It was after that that she learned their names, and because of Bai Mufeng, she paid a little more attention to them.

After three rounds, the results were somewhat unexpected.
The first is the Empire.
But the Federation came in second!
At the bottom are the Ten Thousand Races.
In the audience, everyone seemed unable to believe their eyes.
"Am I seeing this right?"
"Shouldn't there be any? Our Federation took second place?"
"One person's eyes might be in trouble, but that doesn't mean everyone's eyes will be in trouble, right?"
"In the first round, Gu Tianyou narrowly defeated the Empire and got three points. In the second round, Tao Haochuan got two points. In the third round, we got one point. We got a total of six points.
Wanzu was last in two rounds and second in one round, so they got four points!"
"Ahhh! A miracle has happened!!!"
"It's great, our speedsters are awesome."
Everyone was cheering.
Although we only got second place, isn’t this also a signal?
A sign that the opponent is not invincible!
However, in the audience seats of all races next door, there was silence at this moment.
Their faces looked extremely ugly.
I don't know how long it took before someone angrily smashed all the seats.
"Fuck, you idiot! Even driving a T700, you can still lose to a T500!"
"What? Lost to the Federation?"
"This is really embarrassing for our Ten Thousand Races. Was this year's speedster selected through the backdoor?"
"Let's go. Why are you still staying here? Isn't it embarrassing enough?"
…
They wanted to suspect that the federal racers were cheating, but that was obviously impossible.
After all, the entire process was broadcast live, and the federal racers did not even violate any regulations.
This is completely achieved by relying on superb skills in avoiding obstacles.
However...some people feel that the actions of the three speedsters of the Federation are somewhat familiar.
"Do you think...their maneuvers of cornering and avoiding obstacles seem familiar?"
"I thought so, but I can't remember where I saw it."
The person who answered looked very confused. He thought about it carefully and suddenly thought of something.
He said in a surprised tone: "Yeah, I remember now!"
"Isn't this the same operation used by the male protagonist in that new anime?
Just looking at that car that was overtaking around the corner, did it look like they were drifting?"
The person next to him also suddenly realized.
Then I immediately clicked on the replay of the event recording, expanded the duration to several points, and watched it repeatedly.
"Yes, it's the drift used by the anime male protagonist."
"Oh my god, the Federation's speedsters are so strong! They learned this technique just by watching a few episodes of anime?"
"More than that, I never thought that a car could drift..."
"It's not impossible, actually. After all, antique cars can turn so smoothly. A fast car has good performance, so it should be even smoother.
It’s just that no one has ever tried it, and no one has ever thought that driving a car can be done in a variety of ways.”
After all, interstellar people use spaceships to go far away, and for close places, the speed of the flying car itself is already very fast.
This isn't a car you're trying to escape, so who has the time to figure out how to drive faster?
Even for fast car drivers, their usual practice is more about the performance of the car itself and more stable control.
…
Not only the Federation and the Ten Thousand Races were surprised, the Empire team's racers were also shocked.
Especially the racer who lost to Gu Tianyou.
He could never understand why his T900 couldn't outrun the T500.
Even if there are obstacles that prevent him from moving at full speed, he should not be caught up easily.
Not only was he confused, he was also unwilling to accept it.
So at this moment he was staring at Gu Tianyou who was fist-bumping and cheering with his teammates, trying to remember his appearance.
Next time...next time, he must wash away this shame!
Seeing how dark his face was, his teammates wanted to complain but didn't dare to say a word.
After all, I got first place, at least the result is good.
***
At eight o'clock in the evening, all the interstellar racing enthusiasts were repeatedly refreshing the homepage of a certain account.
Finally, at 20:05, I finally saw the newly uploaded episode!
Episodes 8-9.
The answer that everyone had been waiting for a day and a night was finally revealed.
Not only did Takumi's father return home on time, he also secretly changed the tire without telling Takumi.
When Amu was about to collapse, Takumi finally arrived at Mount Akina.
Then he started a fierce competition with Nakazato who was driving 32.
The tense atmosphere, the roar of the cars, and the friction of the tires all make people feel the crazy rise of adrenaline.
Although 86 has always lagged behind 32, the gap is constantly narrowing.
No matter how fast the 32 goes, it can't shake off the 86 that's right behind it, like it's haunted by a ghost...
Episode 10.
In a tense atmosphere, 32 and 86 finally arrived at the corner where Takumi defeated Keisuke Takahashi.
Everyone thought he would still use that trick, the one that used the drainage ditch to achieve a perfect braking drift.
Therefore, Zhongli blocked the inner bend in advance.
Unexpectedly, Takumi was not stopped, but drove into the outside bend...
This left all those who speculated that Takumi defeated Keisuke Takahashi only because he was familiar with the terrain dumbfounded.
…
After a tense chase, Takumi finally overtook the car with a drift move...
