Chapter 179
At the end of the post-match review, Senior Jin Qing told Jiang Yunu: "If this were a real competitive elimination match, or on the battlefield of a college league, you must be careful."
Because "hidden superpowers" can be said to be an essential superpower skill for the reconnaissance pioneers of every school team.
In fact, at the beginning of this round of battle, Jin Qing took the initiative to release her supernatural power, and then let Jiang Yunu see with his own eyes that her turquoise supernatural light "disappeared". For a person with invisible energy skills, this was already a very clear gesture of friendship.
"In a school-based game, the opposing team's scouts will be 'hidden' from the start," Jin Qing said. "Vanguard scouts are a position that requires absolute stealth. Scouts will never easily let the other team know when they've started using their abilities."
"Some schools, in order to achieve perfect stealth reconnaissance, even replace the players in this position before each round of the league, to prevent the opponent from predicting who will be the hidden player this year and keeping a close eye on him in advance."
However, there are those who are willing to take the trouble to rotate and train new scouts every two years, and there are naturally those who let the old players play the same position for a long time and will not change.
Jiang Yunu made a well-reasoned comment: "After all, people with hidden skills are not like the cabbages grown in the school's own vegetable garden."
Jin Qing smiled lightly: "You can say that this is one of the reasons."
However, there are still some schools that do not make substitutions because they are very confident in the abilities of their own players. Even if others know who the vanguard scouts in the team are, they still believe that the players can perform well and successfully complete the task.
Jiang Yunu immediately flattered the senior sister: "That senior sister must be the one who is trusted by everyone and does not need to be rotated because of her strength."
Jin Qing blinked and said, "Actually, I wouldn't change positions. It's just that there aren't that many people on our school team."
Jiang Yunu readily agreed: "Then this further proves that the senior sister's position is indispensable. If the school team is without the senior sister, it would be like losing the navigation on the map of a desolate planet. How terrible!"
“…”
Jin Qing is only in her second year this year, but she has already participated in a round of college leagues, which shows that she is indeed talented. She happened to catch up with the inter-school competition that year when she was in her first year. The school team of Golden Uriel Academy was really short of people. Discovering that she had hidden skills, Solok immediately recruited her into the official team.
but……
Jiang Yunu is really good at praising.
Jin Qing looked at the white-haired girl carefully and found that she was sincere and focused. When she looked at her, she did not flinch or avoid him. She smiled at her frankly, and her words were so sincere that it seemed as if they were not intentional flattery.
——Jiang Yunu has a little social skill called "speaking nice words without hesitation but giving people a sincere impression".
Jin Qing confirmed this in her heart.
She was indeed optimistic about Jiang Yunu. Not only had she already assumed that Jiang Yunu would join the school team this year, she had even imagined what position she would assign to her if her junior schoolmate joined the team so that Jiang Yunu could maximize her talents.
How about... let the junior girl take care of the school team's socializing for the time being!
In terms of playing style, we can decide which position Jiang Yunu is more suitable for after the third round of competition and let other school team members continue to test her combat capabilities in all aspects.
But apart from the playing style - Jiang Yunu is very suitable to be placed in the social position, responsible for external communication during the non-combat period of the league!
Thinking back to his team's dismal performances in previous years at social events, and the increasingly treacherous reputation that Golden Uriel Academy always received during each round of the senior league, Jin Qing couldn't help but suddenly grasp the white-haired girl's hand. "In the third round, you must do your best and defeat all those opponents who actively approach you!"
Whether or not he can play in the district competition is another matter. Jiang Yunu must first fight to the end in the school competition in order to reach the basic threshold to be recruited into the school team!
Senior Jin Qing spoke from her heart, and her language was full of emotion.
I am full of desire to bring Jiang Yunu to this year's league.
——She didn’t want to go through the social pain of the last league again. The school team needed someone who could speak normally!
Jiang Yunu naturally had no idea what Jin Qing had experienced in the league's social event last time.
But Jiang Yunu felt the intense emotions that suddenly burst out from her senior sister.
Jiang Yunu has always been very good at responding to feelings. She immediately said, "Don't worry, senior sister, I will definitely do my best!"
In fact, whether Jiang Yunu can be considered a "person who can speak normally" is still debatable. After all, her "ability to speak" seems to be conditional, and not everyone can see her enthusiastic and straightforward side that even praises and flatters others.
But for Jin Qing, who recalled the social hell, such a promise sounded extremely heartwarming.
"Your opponents in the third round of the school competition are basically known," said Jin Qing.
The third round is still a free match where you can choose your opponent.
Most of the main players of the school team have come to see Jiang Yunu in person today. Sorok also has a good impression of Jiang Yunu. Jiang Yunu's opponent in the third round will definitely be a member of the Golden Uriel school team.
Speaking of this, Jiang Yunu was a little curious.
"Senior," she asked, "Is it possible for me to become an opponent of Senior Ye Li from today in the third round?"
Anyway, this "Little Ye Li" is also on the school team, right?
"..." However, when "Little Ye Li" was mentioned, Jin Qing's expression became subtle. She finally shook her head and said helplessly, "It's not certain."
Now it was just her and her senior schoolmate, and Jiang Yunu's doubts from the day were still lingering in her heart. The confusing look of "Little Ye Li" could not be shaken off her mind.
"Then can I ask you secretly?" Jiang Yunu lowered her voice stealthily. She whispered, "Senior, do you know why Senior Ye Li treats me so strangely?"
However, unexpectedly, Jin Qing still shook her head.
"All we can tell is that Ye Li definitely has some resistance to you, but like he said, he's never seen you at school before, and there's no grudge between you." Senior Jin Qing recalled her companion's daytime behavior, finding it both amusing and unbelievable. "We—at least I don't know the details. Sorok might know more, but judging by how Sorok explained on Ye Li's behalf, perhaps the reason is related to Ye Li's privacy."
Since it is a private matter, teammates who have played in the league together will not delve into it.
Jin Qing expressed regret that she could not help with Jiang Yunu's inquiry.
Jiang Yunu was just asking out of curiosity, and of course he would not force the senior sister to find the answer for him.
When it comes to gathering intelligence, their Pei Ya intelligence officers are more efficient and capable.
Two days later, the list of qualifiers from the second to the third round of the "Challenge Cup" campus competition was announced, and Jiang Yunu and Jin Qing were both on the list.
At the same time, Pei Ya brought Jiang Yunu information from a reliable source.
At that time, Jiang Yunu was in the public lounge of the dormitory. She opened the list of her opponents for the third round of competition and was thinking about the blank form, estimating who her next opponents might be in the school team.
"Believe me, you will be surprised by this news," said Pei Ya.
Her expression was very rich when she brought the information.
It is the kind of richness that is particularly obvious to others for someone like Pei Ya, who always has a calm mood, a dull expression on her face, and a dull voice.
When Jiang Yunu looked up, he almost didn't recognize his little friend when he saw him.
"I believe it," Jiang Yunu said, "I can't believe it anymore, because your expression has become like this when you talk about it."
Pei Ya didn't know what her expression had become. Upon hearing this, she couldn't help but use the nearest mirrored wall as a mirror and turned her head to look at herself.
After realizing that what Jiang Yunu said was true, Pei Ya felt that her overly emotional expression looked strange. She continued to look in the mirror for another half a minute and adjusted her expression back to normal.
"Okay." said Pei Ya.
Jiang Yunu praised sincerely: "Actually, you look good when you have a lot of expressions."
Pei Ya asked calmly, "Do you still want to hear the information?"
Jiang Yunu immediately became obedient and honest: "Yes, dear Pei Ya, my most versatile intelligence officer, please tell me what you have found out."
The white-haired girl not only spoke honestly, but also put her hands together, as if she was praying deeply.
Pei Ya took a breath.
"Senior Ye Li from the school team doesn't dare to look you in the eye and can't interact with you face to face because—" Pei Ya paused here, not only to whet people's appetite, but also because she had to prepare herself mentally.
"—because this behavior violates his family precepts."
Pei Ya used the calmest possible tone and gave an absurd reason that was beyond Jiang Yunu's imagination.
The white-haired girl was stunned.
This reason was so surreal that Jiang Yunu couldn't believe it, and Pei Ya, who said it, had to confirm it again and again and prepare herself mentally before revealing it.
"...What?" Jiang Yunu said.
As a person with excellent hearing and sensitive senses, Jiang Yunu heard every word Pei Ya said perfectly.
But she could only ask in shock: "What did you say?"
"You heard correctly," Pei Ya said. "Just as you heard, Senior Ye Li spoke to you in a strange manner because it violated his family rules."
Jiang Yunu: "...Do you know that the reason you told me is even weirder than his attitude towards me?"
Pei Ya was not wearing her thick-bottomed glasses, so people could clearly see that she had her eyes closed.
"I know," Peya said. "I checked the accuracy of the information seven times before I told you."
Seven times, what a deafening number.
This is enough to show that Intelligence Officer Pei Ya was also extremely shocked when he saw this news.
Jiang Yunu could only say: "...Why?"
She couldn't figure it out: "Is talking to girls a violation of their family rules? But he seems to be talking to Senior Jin Qing and other seniors normally. Or is it that talking to junior girls violates his family rules?"
Pei Ya's gaze fell on Jiang Yunu's face.
Miss Ole, the excellent intelligence officer, seemed to think for a few seconds before slowly saying, "Do you know someone named Su Xiuchun?"
Um?
Coach Su?
