Chapter Thirty-Eight: My Ball!
Xu Wang glanced at the lucky draw wheel. The grand prize should be three random cards, and the other two prizes would follow the same pattern, with two cards and one card each.
"Let me explain the function of the 'Any Card' to all the teachers. With the Any Card, you can exchange tasks in subsequent missions, and you can exchange tasks at will. Furthermore, if any group of teachers is not satisfied with the reward they have received, they can also use the Any Card to exchange with any group of guest teachers, including earning travel funds." The director smiled and moved his glasses up his hair.
Qin Huai narrowed his eyes: "This means that as long as you have any card, you don't have to worry even if you come in last place."
"Isn't this the card that can change the ending and fate?" Xia Yu rubbed her hands together, eager to try it out.
Zhong Ran looked at Xu Wang and Pei Yanchuan. If he got the three cards, he could turn the tide instantly.
Leng Yifan also looked at Pei Yanchuan. He had been terribly wronged by Pei Yanchuan recently, losing billions of yuan and being forced to kneel in the study all night by his father.
When Leng Yifan thought of his father's disappointed look, he couldn't help but clench his right fist tightly at his side.
Xu Wang and Pei Yanchuan exchanged a glance. Given the current situation, the card had to stay in their group's hands.
"My husband and I, these old bones, are going to give it our all," Zheng Weiguang said kindly as he did his warm-up exercises.
Qu Rou's lips twitched slightly upon hearing his words.
Tian Xiaowu, full of energy, said she would do her best.
Yunxi cursed under her breath, forcing a smile. All she wanted to do right now was go home.
"Good luck to all the teachers! I hereby declare the competition officially open!" The director blew the whistle hanging around his neck.
beep--
"Let's go first." Xia Yu pulled Hou Yunqi to the first checkpoint.
The staff had a whole box full of round, bulging water balloons next to them, which meant the production team had prepared a lot of water balloons.
"How do you two teachers plan to transport it?" The staff member picked out a yellow water balloon and handed it to the two of them.
"Place it between us." Xia Yu placed the water balloon between her and Hou Yunqi's chests.
The two carefully watched the water sphere in the middle and moved slowly toward the second checkpoint.
The distance between the first and second levels is about 10 meters.
Due to the weight of the water balloon itself, it tends to slide downwards when Xia Yu lets go of it.
"Wait, wait! Don't fall!" Xia Yu watched the water balloon fall lower and lower, and her body subconsciously followed it downwards. Gradually, the scene began to spiral out of control.
Even the director, who was wearing sunglasses, couldn't help but lift them up. Wow!
[Wait, wait, is this pose really okay to broadcast? (Skin pale and sallow)]
[Xiaxia, we need to be reserved.]
[Honest man Hou Yunqi blushed, hahaha.]
BOOM!!!
Despite Xia Yu's efforts, the water balloon still fell to the ground and turned into a puddle of water.
"It looks a bit difficult." Xu Wang raised an eyebrow.
Pei Yanchuan also frowned slightly. Several plans flashed through his mind, but he rejected them all.
Due to time constraints, the others dared not delay any longer.
Each group received a water balloon and began to think about where they would transport it.
Xu Wang looked at the blue water ball in his hand. It wasn't particularly big, about the size of an adult's palm.
The other groups transported the water balloon by placing it in the middle of their bodies, but the results were all pretty much the same: it either burst or fell to the ground halfway through.
Xu Wang tried placing the water ball between his and Pei Yanchuan's cheeks. Compared to the larger body, which was harder to control, the smaller cheek seemed to be more sensitive.
Xu Wang and Pei Yanchuan, who was slightly bent over, walked forward in an orderly manner, and the two quickly covered half the distance.
Wow! The gap has widened dramatically.
[I'm betting on Xu Wang to be first in his group in this competition.]
Count me in.
[Then I'll bet on Gu Yingdi and his sister-in-law.]
[Metoo!]
…………
Seeing the enthusiasm of the netizens and fans in the live broadcast room, the director immediately launched a poll.
The progress bar for each group is increasing every second.
Qin Huai was the first to notice the two of them. By this time, their clothes were soaked through, and they had already popped two water balloons.
Just as Gu Yunlan was about to place the water balloon between the two for the third time, Qin Huai stopped him and pointed at Xu Wang and Pei Yanchuan.
Gu Yunlan immediately understood and placed a slightly smaller water ball between their cheeks.
After failing once, the remaining groups finally discovered the pattern.
Xu Wang and Pei Yanchuan were the first group to pass the first stage.
The second challenge involves two staff members standing on either side, with two water balloons tied in the middle with ropes. The staff members throw the balloons at each other, and the teachers need to cross this middle section.
Xu Wang pulled Pei Yanchuan to stand aside; now only the two of them were free from being splashed with water.
Qin Huai and Gu Yunlan's group were the second to pass the first stage.
The two took the black blindfolds from the side, put them on, and slowly walked hand in hand into the second checkpoint.
As soon as the two stepped inside, the two staff members released the water balloons they were holding, and the balloons naturally swung to the other side.
Just as the water balloon was returning due to inertia, a huge water balloon hit Gu Yunlan directly on the forehead. The moment the balloon burst, the water inside scattered from his hair, as if he had been given a hair wash.
"Pfft..." Gu Yunlan spat out the water in her mouth and then wiped the water off her face with her right hand.
Qin Huai had already nimbly jumped out of the second level area when he heard the noise. When he took off his blindfold, he saw Gu Yunlan looking as if she had been caught in a rain.
Qin Huai couldn't help but burst out laughing, clutching his stomach: "Pfft, hahaha, you're too funny!"
[Hahaha]
[Mr. Gu, I absolutely didn't mean to laugh at you, I just couldn't help it.]
[Handsome, handsome, and still handsome, hahaha.]
[Sister-in-law, is it really okay for you to be laughing so loudly?]
[To make our usually aloof sister-in-law laugh like that, you're truly impressive, Best Actor.]
………………
Qin Huai only smiled for a short while. He still loved Gu Yunlan. Qin Huai picked up a clean bath towel from the side and went over to help him dry his hair carefully.
Zhong Ran and Leng Yifan were the third to pass the first round, and they breathed a sigh of relief after putting down the water balloon.
Xu Wang and Pei Yanchuan tried to pass the second challenge, but unfortunately, when they reached the middle, a water ball hit Pei Yanchuan on the back. Luckily, Xu Wang was shielded in Pei Yanchuan's arms and didn't get too wet.
"Are you alright?" Xu Wang took off his blindfold and looked at the person behind him.
Pei Yanchuan's shoulder was half wet, and water droplets were running down the back of his hair.
Pei Yanchuan gently shook his head: "I'm fine, don't worry."
Xu Wang pulled Pei Yanchuan aside and took a dry towel from the side to wipe the water off his back.
Xu Wang didn't rush to pass the level. Instead, he quietly observed the pattern of the second level. Suddenly, he discovered that as long as he counted the rhythm correctly, he could dodge the water balls by moving left and right.
The second attempt confirmed Xu Wang's guess; after learning the pattern, the two moved quickly and safely.
The third level has the shortest distance, only a 2-meter-long mat.
The sky gradually darkened a little.
Xu Wang and Pei Yanchuan walked barefoot, each holding a water balloon, carefully on the mat.
The slippery mat made every step difficult for the two of them.
Behind them were Yunxi and Tian Xiaowu, who rallied in the second round and went from last place to second.
The third place went to Qin Huai and Gu Yunlan.
The fourth place went to Zheng Weiguang and Qu Rou.
The fifth place went to Zhong Ran and Leng Yifan.
Finally, it's Xia Yu and Hou Yunqi.
Xia Yu, in the last group, had a look of desire for victory in his eyes. He picked up a water balloon and rushed onto the mat.
But the next second he successfully fell flat on his back on the mat, and Hou Yunqi didn't even have a chance to help him up.
The water balloon that Xia Yu had released slid forward down the mat and landed right under Leng Yifan's butt. Leng Yifan slipped and sat on it, bursting it.
In an instant, everyone present fell silent.
[OMG!]
Oh my god!
[Oh my god!]
The live stream chat was flooded with comments.
Upon feeling the chill beneath his buttocks, Leng Yifan's face instantly darkened, and he dared not get up.
"My ball!" Xia Yu stretched out her reluctant hand.
