Chapter 291: Chapter 291: The Rag Queen Makes Her Debut
Nolan Augustine and Xu Siyu watched as Professor Ye Hong sent the email to Master Kong Zhe, both of their eyes briefly sparkling with joy—
At that mont, Professor Ye Hong suddenly gestured with his hands and said, "Alright, I need to rest now."
Nolan quickly said, "Teacher... Thank you."
Xu Siyu also said, "Professor... Thank you."
Professor Ye Hong didn’t say anything else and made an unmistakable gesture of disregarding the two.
Both of them knew he preferred quiet and did not wish to disturb him any further, so they tactfully left Professor Ye Hong’s laboratory.
After the two had completely left, Professor Ye Hong’s facial expression completely darkened.
Nolan Augustine had been one of the students that Professor Ye Hong valued the most in recent years, but—watching him take a wrong path, set as his advisor, yet not being able to stop him, was truly a mix of helplessness and anger.
And the key point was, these two were still utterly oblivious.
Really—
Forget it.
Since Nolan and Augustine were not committed to specializing in materials science, it was not worth forcing them to stay.
Only when they realized there was no road ahead could they turn back.
To be honest, Professor Ye Hong liked both Nolan and Xu Siyu very much; their creativity was extraordinary, and they both had their own signature works, decidedly better than so students with gaps in their brains by several folds...
Thus, he still held high hopes for the two of them.
When it ca to students with gaps in their brains, one could not but ntion...
Thinking of this, Professor Ye Hong’s expression sank again. He imdiately opened his email to check carefully, only to find that the email sent out a few days ago had still not been replied to.
Huh?
Had it not been received?
Or had it not been checked?
Or had it been received but ignored as if unseen?
It was said that the group of students Mu Jianling took for intensive training had returned to school this noon. Could it be that she had decided to completely give up on the subject of materials science? Or was she already busy catching up on the courses she had fallen behind on?
What about the assignnt?
Would the assignnt be made up?
Under normal circumstances, around this ti, the assignnt should have been sent over. The fact that it hadn’t been sent yet probably ant that there was too much coursework to catch up on, and the assignnt couldn’t be completed so quickly.
After so thought, Ye Hong decided to wait a bit longer.
minute.
minutes.
minutes.
...
Half an hour passed.
An hour passed, and the assignnt Professor Ye Hong had imagined, still had not arrived on ti, his expression now could be described as stormy.
"Idiot!"
"Idiot!"
"Idiot!"
Cursing "idiot" three tis, Professor Ye Hong still couldn’t suppress the rage in his heart, and he couldn’t help sending Mu Jianling an email full of emotion: [So teachers always consider themselves self-righteous, little do they know how irresponsible their own actions are towards the students’ life and future!]
Just out of the shower, lying on the bed preparing to comfortably watch a TV series, Mu Jianling: "..."
Her face as dark as the bottom of a pot, she couldn’t help cursing: "This crazy old man has gone mad again for no reason!"
Forget it.
The crazy old fellow needed to co out occasionally to assert his presence.
Why bother with him?
And so—
Mu Jianling closed the ssages and continued watching the TV series.
*****
Ji You had just finished her study notes and was planning to go to bed early, but she suddenly received a system notification from her Light Computer: [Rag Queen: Hello, you have registered for the 131st Alliance University Online Single-player cha Competition. The preliminary selection is ending in 3 days, please take the ti to participate in the challenges.]
Eh?
She had almost forgotten about it.
Ji You slapped her forehead hard, this competition was very important after all.
Originally, because Teacher Mu Jianling had selected a group of people for special training, Ji You had actually given up on this online competition in order to take part in the special training. But now that there was a sudden opportunity, how could she miss it?
She absolutely couldn’t.
After thinking it over, Ji You didn’t hesitate at all and imdiately chose to enter the Star Network.
Soon, she arrived at the arena.
As the competition had been going on for so ti, the excitent around the online competition was growing, with the vast majority of students from the entire Alliance spending their evening breaks imrsed in the arena. Consequently, as soon as Ji You entered, she saw countless heads moving around, with no end in sight.
The atmosphere was very lively, with many people nearby discussing the popular players and battle situations of late.
Ji You listened in for a bit and didn’t recognize anyone familiar.
She checked her own data and found that her win rate was 75%, with a participation count of 4 tis. Still a long way off from advancing with 10 participations and a win rate of 80%!
Want to advance?
Of course.
Ji You wasn’t one to accept defeat easily. Now that she had the chance, she would definitely make an effort, so she started eyeing the people nearby, ready to pick a more vulnerable opponent:
One.
Two.
Three.
...
They all looked tough to ss with.
Suddenly, she overheard soone saying, "Hey! Have you guys noticed that self-destructing silly boss lately? And that Rag Queen? According to the analysis by the Data Master, it’s very likely these two are the sa person. Too bad they don’t have enough participation for enough data to confirm this."
"Nope, haven’t seen them."
"Both have been missing these past few days, especially that self-explosive silly boss, as if they’ve disappeared from the Star Network, never to be seen again. Honestly, she’s practically started her own genre—the Self-Destruction genre!"
"The self-destruct technique of the Rag Queen matches that of the silly boss, maybe even surpasses it. I’m convinced they’re the sa person! It’s a sha both of these accounts have vanished."
"Now there are more people driving antique chs and those who self-destruct, but the matches of the Rag Queen and the silly boss are still the most spectacular, the most refreshing, like a mudslide!"
"I miss it!"
"I won’t say more, I’m going to the battle video thread on the forum to leave a ssage, a tribute to the boss in hopes that the boss sees it, gets heartbroken, and jumps right out of the grave!"
"I’m joining!"
"Let’s go pay tribute together!"
Ji You: "..."
She really wanted to pretend she hadn’t heard anything, but this group was too loud, too much! What did they an by "paying tribute"? That’s such an unlucky thing to say! She truly felt an urge to burst out and beat them up, and almost sent challenge requests to all of them.
But—
Impatience would spoil great plans.
Her goal now was to ensure her advancent, and she absolutely couldn’t afford to be rash or chaotic, so she needed to carefully pick her opponents.
Ji You widened her eyes, vigorously scanning the people around her, reviewed them once, then again, and even checked many players’ information in the nearby channels. She filtered through the information again and again, not daring to make a decision.
The reason she hesitated was that, like Ji You, many people chose to hide their competition data and identity information. If she was unlucky enough to catch a bait that was a fake newbie but actually a boss, like that ’Xiaoqing’ pretending to be a little sister, she would have to grin and bear the consequences.
Suddenly, Ji You’s eyes lit up as she spotted a sowhat familiar figure. Upon closer inspection, Ji You laughed!
—Xianting Huailuo!
Hahaha...
This guy ca to deliver a al to her again.
