Chapter 559: Chapter 559: Spitting Eternal Glory
Rustle~

Around them, apart from the sound of the Rag Queen sweeping, there was almost no other sound. The audience all stared wide-eyed, a bit unsure what lofty opinions to express about the current situation—
The Rag Queen?
As she swept, she couldn’t help but sigh. After finishing, the Rag Queen suddenly straightened up and tossed the ashes, neatly bundled, directly into the trash recycler. Then she looked around and declared in a serious tone, "Protecting the environnt is everyone’s responsibility. Starting with cleaning up litter, it begins with ."
Audience: "..."
Silence.
The silence of death.
second.
seconds.
seconds.
...
After a long while.
Soone suddenly spoke up: "May I ask if Hero King is still around?"
Another person followed: "I’d reckon, he’s not here anymore."
Soone who refused to believe jeered: "Hero King, if you’re a man, give us a sign."
Silence.
...
A silence so intense you could hear a pin drop.
Audience A: "I’m guessing Hero King was so angry that he reincarnated."
Audience B: "I think he reincarnated too. With the way things are, why would he stick around here if he didn’t?"
Audience C: "I’m guessing he has already reincarnated, only to co back and find that he left his face here and, embarrassed, ran off to reincarnate again."
Audience D: "Candlelight vigil~"
...
Listening to the incessant chatter from the stands, where speaking up could infuriate others to death without compensation, Ji You, completely unaware, scratched her head and looked at the empty arena. She chuckled and then said, "Old Hero! We’re old acquaintances at this point. If you’ve reincarnated, make so noise to greet . Considering our close relationship, next ti I beat you, I’ll make sure to only use eighty percent of my strength."
Audience: "..."
In a flash—
The audience seats erupted:
"Damn!"
"Is this person even human?"
"This isn’t sothing a human would say, could she be?"
"She’s pushing people to the point where they don’t want to be human anymore."
"Rag Queen, born a human, I urge you to be kind."
"Enough is enough, hey, give Hero King a chance to make ands and let him be human again if he reincarnates."
...
Ji You: "Hehe..."
"Ah-ha~" She scratched her head, looking pure and innocent as she said, "Since everyone’s saying this, I’ll do a good deed and give him a way out. But!!! Hero King, listen up, now that you’re a human again, rember to protect the environnt, love the environnt, don’t litter indiscriminately, not even your ashes, understand?"
Audience: "..."
The audience collectively took a deep breath: "Shut your mouth!"
"Cough~"
Ji You cleared her throat, looking around as the arena was about to close, she hurriedly said in the final seconds, "Rag Queen, strongest in the field! Thank you all for your support, see you next ti at the finals!"
Audience A: "Ptooey~"
Audience B: "Ptooey, ptooey~"
Audience C: "Ptooey for a million years!"
Audience D: "Spit for eternity!"
...
System: [Countdown will end in 3 seconds, contestants please prepare for teleportation exit.]
Ji You turned to look at the audience stands, feeling sowhat reluctant to leave. Just before departing, she suddenly yelled out, "My brothers and sisters, I know you’re going to miss
terribly, but I still have to say goodbye. The green mountains won’t change, the rivers will flow forever, I’ll see you at the finals!"
Audience: "..."
The audiences’ feelings could be described as a complex mix of emotions. The Rag Queen was so incredibly talkative—it was unbearable. As audience mbers, they had to put up with her shalessness and her incessant yamring. Life was hard for them.
Sigh!
Over here—
When they saw the Rag Queen leave, the Hero King finally appeared, ready to make his exit—
Audience: "!!!"
—So it turned out the Hero King was still around.
"Hero King, have you just reincarnated?"
"Hero King! Don’t go, give us an interview."
"Don’t leave! Share your thoughts, please."
"Hey, hey, hey..."
The Hero King left with a darkened face, his mood indescribable in human words. Ignoring the enthusiastic audience who wanted him to stay, he chose to leave right away.
With no entertainnt left to watch, the audience felt very disappointed—
However—
The showdown offered by the Rag Queen and the Hero King had truly opened the eyes of the audience:
Look~
Against soone skilled in technology, no matter how extravagant you are, what does it matter if you have a Protective Shield worth 100,000 points? Or dozens and hundreds of Tracking Particle Cannons? You still end up being ruthlessly schooled.
Although the audience disdained the Rag Queen, her performance had indeed garnered a wave of fans—especially since she relied on her superior skills alone. Without spending a single point or firing a single shot, she used the Hero King’s own weapons against him with incredible finesse, winning a complete victory. It was truly breathtaking...
...
As for the audience, Ji You wasn’t concerned. She was over the moon right now, having secured her victory over the Hero King, which ant she had firmly entered the top ten of the Alliance. This also fulfilled the agreent with her teacher Mu Jianling.
Next—
Even if she were eliminated in the first round and ranked at the very bottom, it was still a solid top ten result, which ant that teacher Mu Jianling had no excuse to make up for the shortfall in buying Cloud Mist Tea.
That’s a saving of at least one million credit points.
So delightful...
Humming a tune, Ji You logged off from the Star Network, and when she turned her head, she felt a strange gaze on her—
Ji You turned to look and saw Liu Fufeng.
Ji You was puzzled and asked, "What’s up with you?"
Liu Fufeng pursed his lips, seemingly weighing his words for quite a while before he mustered the courage to say, "Ji You, I find you a bit terrifying."
Ji You widened her eyes: "???"
Huh?
How did he co to that conclusion?
Liu Fufeng gazed at Ji You’s face, which appeared to be extrely delicate and lovely, and said, "It’s just a feeling."
"Heh~" Ji You straightened up seriously and asked, "Listen, little brother, where exactly is this feeling coming from?"
Liu Fufeng’s eyes flickered slightly, but he shook his head.
Ji You wanted to continue questioning.
Suddenly, Liu Fufeng lowered his head and started fiddling with the unfinished small paper man in his hands...
Ji You: "..."
Ji You said speechlessly: "Didn’t you just tear it up? Why are you folding it again?"
Liu Fufeng said softly, "I’m folding a new one."
Ji You was baffled, "Don’t get it."
As she was about to turn her head away, she suddenly caught sight of a few words written on the small paper man in Liu Fufeng’s hands. It seed to be sothing? She leaned in to take a closer look...
Suddenly—
Liu Fufeng reacted as if he had been stepped on in a painful spot, jumping up and quickly covering the small paper man with his hands.
Ji You: "..."
Ji You, with a darkened face, said, "I saw it."
Liu Fufeng: "..."
Ji You, with a stern face, said, "I really saw it."
Liu Fufeng remained silent.
Ji You glared at him and accused, "I saw it clearly! You’re cursing !"
