Chapter 120: Fear is because of cherishing
…
Registration office for the Beast King Contest.
The staff are packing up and preparing to complete the final registration work.
Yin Zang dragged Yu Yan, who looked like he had lost all hope in life, and hurried over, "Wait, wait, wait, we need to sign up for the Beast King Contest!"
The staff looked at them in surprise at first, especially Yu Yan, and then smiled and said, "Don't worry, take your time."
Ginzo signed up smoothly.
Yu Yan was a little reluctant to sign up, but seeing Yin Zang's threatening look, he still obediently accompanied the competition. Besides, 10 million points was still very tempting. If two people participated in the competition, the chance of winning would be greater.
As for Ziqi, if he didn't use his inherited talent, his strength would be on par with Yinzang's. If Yinzang couldn't defeat the Beast King, he wouldn't have to waste his energy. Besides, he didn't like the ring competition or the round-robin battle.
Su Yan's even breathing sound kept lingering in Ziqi's ears, making his mood exceptionally calm.
He stood in the corridor of the registration office, admiring a desert painting on the wall.
At first glance, the desert looks very ordinary, just an endless sea of sand. But if you calm down and take a closer look, you can see a skull in the sand, the same color as the sand.
The skull's dark eyes quietly stared at Ziqi who was looking at the painting.
"My friend, do you like this painting?" A white-haired old man came over with a cane in his hand.
Zi Qi politely bowed to the old man, "Senior, who painted this picture?"
"This is a casual sketch by an old friend. If you like it, I can give it to you." The old man looked at Ziqi, and his smile became deeper and kinder.
"Thank you, senior. I will respectfully obey your orders."
"Okay, my old friend will also be very happy." The old man immediately asked the staff to take the painting down from the wall and hand it to Ziqi.
Zi Qi accepted it and bowed to the old man again, "May I know your name, senior?"
"My last name is Feng, just call me Old Man Feng. Hahaha..." The old man smiled and left.
Ziqi took another look at the desert painting.
Strangely, the skull in the painting disappeared again.
With a slight curl of her thin lips, Ziqi put the painting into the space.
After Yu Yan and Yin Zang registered, the staff gave them check-in cards for the Tower of Beasts to facilitate arrangements for the competition.
Two people signed up and had two check-in cards, so Su Yan and Zi Qi shared a room, and Yu Yan and Yin Zang shared a room.
The two rooms are opposite each other, which makes it convenient to move around.
"Your Majesty, I just received a notice that both Silver Emperor and I will be on stage tonight. In the elimination match arena on the fifteenth floor."
"Well, I'll go and see then."
"No, no, there's nothing to see in the elimination rounds. I came here to tell His Majesty that I saw someone with holy war points on his wrist who reached the 25th floor. Ginzo went over to get the details, so there should be news soon."
"Knock knock knock~" There was a knock on the door.
Then came Ginzo's voice, "It's me."
Yu Yan went over to open the door and let Yin Zang in.
"I used the system map on the 25th floor and observed for a while. The opponent is the seventh-ranked team 0459. There is only one warrior, and the female is not here."
"Don't alert the snake for now. When the female appears, kill her directly." Ziqi said.
"Okay." Yin Zang and Yu Yan both agreed.
Su Yan woke up.
He rustled out from behind Ziqi's neck and yawned, "This is such a sweet sleep."
Yu Yan and Yin Zang immediately stood up and said goodbye one after another.
Before Su Yan could react, the two men had already left.
"What's wrong?" Su Yan asked Ziqi.
Ziqi smiled and said, "They have a game tonight, do you want to go and watch it?"
"Okay." She participated in the Beast King Contest. The first place would get 10 million Holy War points. They were also fighting for her, so of course she had to go and cheer them on.
Ziqi gently pressed her hungry stomach and said, "What do you want to eat? I'll make it for you."
"I'm not hungry." Su Yan felt upset and couldn't eat anything when she thought about the possibility of losing in the female competition.
As time goes by, affection grows. Even if it is not love, there is still friendship and family affection. Moreover, Su Yan and Zi Qi have been through hardships together and have already developed another kind of comradeship.
If she had the idea of "I can just start over again and add another system" when she first learned about the holy war, that idea is gone now.
She wanted them to live well, wanted to become a saint and protect them. So she was afraid, and this fear made her hesitate to move forward.
Her mother once told her that fear is sometimes a good thing. It lets you know that you still have something you want to cherish and you want to protect yourself for the things you cherish.
Su Yan looked at Zi Qi. Her originally confused and hesitant expression gradually became firm. The light in her eyes was as bright as the stars in the night sky.
Ziqi smiled and pinched her round ears, "Do you still want to go out for dinner?"
"I want to eat spicy hot pot, but there's probably no such thing outside, so I'll make it myself."
“What is spicy hotpot?”
"Hehe~ You'll know after you eat it."
Su Yan started to get busy.
Ziqi had been watching her work and even heard her humming a cheerful tune.
Finally, after Su Yan prepared the hot pot, she called Yu Yan and Yin Zang over.
The two men were just about to eat the dinner given by the Tower of Beasts, a piece of old beef that was hard and tough.
Smelling the aroma of the hot pot that went straight into his stomach, Yu Yan drooled and said, "Su Guici's cooking skills are enough to open a big restaurant. I will definitely go there to eat every day."
Su Yan smiled and said, "I guess I can't open it. I'm a trouble-prone person. But if you want to open it, I can give you this hot pot recipe."
"Thank you, Su Guici. I'll drink first to show my respect." Yu Yan picked up a bottle of beer and drank it all in one gulp.
Ever since I had a taste of beer at Su Yan's place, I've fallen in love with it.
Su Yan directly brought out all the inventory this time and let them drink as they pleased. "I wish you a successful start and continued success."
In the competition, you move up to a higher level by winning each match, so to move up step by step you must win every step.
"Thank you, Su Guici. I also wish you can take the position of Saint Female soon." Yu Yan opened another bottle of beer.
"Thank you." Su Yan took a sip of milk.
"Eat your food. This meatball has stuffing. Try it." Su Yan picked up the serving chopsticks and helped Yu Yan serve the food.
Ginzo had already started eating. Without any greeting, he just started eating and finished three bottles of beer in no time.
Seeing Su Yan happily making arrangements, Ziqi was also in a good mood.
But he would feel better if the system map didn't show that there was someone standing outside the door for a while.
"You guys eat first, I'm going to go out for a while." Ziqi said to Su Yan.
Su Yan picked up a large shrimp dumpling with chopsticks and fed it to Zi Qi, "Try it and see if it tastes good. Come back soon."
Ziqi opened her mouth and ate it, chewing it carefully, her mouth full of deliciousness, "Mm, everything Yanyan cooks is delicious."
