Nine Star Burden - Chapter 323
Chapter 323: Little wimp
May 20,2016. It was an extraordinary day for Jiang Xiao.
Today was the finals of the National High School League, and it was the day that the final winner would be decided.
Ever since Jiang Xiao and the rest arrived in Chang ‘an in early May, it had been sunny and sunny.
But today, dark clouds covered Chang ‘an, as if it was going to rain.
Jiang Xiao got up at 6:30 in the morning, but he was not in a good mental state. His blessing could heal his physical condition, but his mental fatigue could not be relieved.
He had been out for more than half a month, and he had fought for more than half a month. It was time to go home after the last battle.
The temperature in Chang ‘an city was already very high in the middle to late May.
The dark clouds pressed down on the city, but there was no wind at all. Whether it was the physical or mental feeling, it made people feel depressed and depressed.
Yesterday, Jiang Xiao was fully armed and sneaked out of the hotel with hai Tianqing. He then found a barbershop and got a clean and refreshing buzz cut, which he thought was the wisest thing he had ever done.
At this moment, Jiang Xiao was holding his buzz cut in a bun and enduring the sultry weather in the stadium. Only the short buzz cut could give him a refreshing feeling.
…
Finally, the emcee finished introducing the competition process and the simple opening ceremony ended. Jiang Xiao and the rest could return to the locker room to rest. There was air conditioning there and it could be considered a “Holy Land”.
No matter what kind of weather it was, it would not affect the enthusiasm of the audience. There would be a total of four matches today.
The rankings of the top eight would be completely determined today.
The duration of each match must not exceed 20 minutes. It was now 8:00 in the morning. 30 points meant that the match between jiangbin high school and imperial Capital High School No. 32 would start at 10 O’ clock sharp, regardless of the course of the first three matches.
For this group of children who were good at seizing opportunities, 20 minutes was indeed a bit long.
Any small mistake could lead to the complete collapse of a team.
These awakened children had been trained to fight. Seizing opportunities and turning an advantage into victory had always been their strength.
The first match lasted less than 300 seconds, and the winner was already decided.
And the official rules stated that the next match would be at 8: It started at 55 minutes, and the 20 minutes in between had exhausted the live cheerleaders.
The sponsors, on the other hand, were very happy. Advertisements were playing on television and computers.
……
In the lounge, Xia Yan sat on the long bench and fiddled with the wooden giant sword in her hand. After two matches, although she had made contributions to the team, her shortcomings had also been exposed to everyone.
In both games, Xia Yan was “killed” by the enemy’s melee fighter. However, the problem was that Xia Yan was also a melee fighter, which caused her to be given a low evaluation on the internet.
The winner was King and the loser was vilified. This was the truth everywhere.
Since ancient times, there had never been a first in literature and a second in martial arts.
If it was a singing and dancing competition or a writing competition, people might have a greater dispute over the rankings.
However, in a battle between awakened ones, if you can’t do it, you can’t do it. No matter how much you boast about yourself, you will still lose.
After being defeated twice by players of the same profession, Xia Yan’s A-rank evaluation dropped all the way to B+.
The Chinese were really passionate about the rankings. After every match, hundreds of thousands of spectators would comment on the children’s performance.
In the first round of the preliminaries, Han Jiangxue’s evaluation was still A+. After two rounds of competition, Han Jiangxue was already at the top of the list, far ahead of the rest of the young talents and was charging straight for S+.
Han Jiangxue was a perfect example of the saying ‘lonely at the top’.
Out of nearly 1000 contestants this year, only Yuan Qinghua from Southern Guangdong Province could catch up to her, and her evaluation was fixed at S.
The Overlord of the Galaxy stage was really not a joke.
What was more interesting was that Jiang Xiao’s rating soared from B to A+, which was the complete opposite of Xia Yan’s fate.
People watched helplessly as a young man with Nine Star Slots conquered people from all over the world and climbed to the top of the world step by step.
In the end, he stood on the stage of the finals as the only support in jiangbin high school’s team. This surprised most people, and some of the audience members were amazed.
During this period of time when Xia Yan and Li Weiyi were gradually being cursed as “slackers” by netizens, Jiang Xiao suddenly emerged as a new force. Even though he was beside Han Jiangxue, the Overlord, he was not at a disadvantage at all, which was enough to show Jiang Xiao’s true strength.
The people who were slow to notice finally realized: Yes, you could question the number of Star Slots Jiang Xiao had and despise his low qualifications, low growth, and low potential. However, you must never question his combat power!
“The number one support under the Galaxy” came from the host ye Xunyang’s mouth and was finally recognized by the people of the country.
The public’s eyes were sharp, and they were considered the most authoritative organization.
Ye Xunyang had his own show at Central TV and the ratings were not low. With the popularity of the National League, the ratings were even higher.
After the semi-finals, ye Xunyang replayed the two matches between jiangbin high school and Dawan high school, as well as the two matches between jiangbin high school and Jinmen Nankai.
Interestingly, whether it was the quarter-finals or the quarter-finals, the support always had the final say in the final moments!
During the battle against Yuan Qinghua in the top eight, Jiang Xiao managed to lead his team to victory with a smile.
The semi-finals were going against Liu Yang. The host, ye Xunyang, led everyone to watch the interaction between Jiang Xiao and Han Jiangxue at the last moment of the competition.
During the program, ye Xunyang was full of praise for Jiang Xiao’s choice. On the surface, the commander of jiangbin high school was undoubtedly Han Jiangxue.
However, in reality, at the most critical moment, the support position was the true leader.
This was obviously a team with two core players. It was just that Han Jiangxue was too outstanding and had overshadowed the others.
So far, through the combined comments of the top eight and top four matches, ye Xunyang had sincerely praised “the best support under the Galaxy”, which had been recognized by the audience.
Yes, it was.
Jiang Xiao’s hardware facilities were insufficient, and he even felt so inferior that he didn’t dare to show his star map for fear of being publicly executed by the people around the world.
However, his software facilities were beyond the reach of ordinary people. He was calm and composed, not panicking in the face of danger. He was quick-witted, good at responding, willing to sacrifice himself for great things, and never stingy in sacrificing himself for the team, he could be called brave and resourceful.
What was the wind of a great general?
This seemingly absurd and comical support was the best interpretation of this word.
Ye Xunyang admired Jiang Xiao a lot. After all, she was a Central TV host and a public figure. She paid a lot of attention to her vocabulary and most of the words that came out of her mouth were commendative.
On the other hand, the comments on Jiang Xiao on the internet were not as well-behaved. There were praises, scoldings, and ridicules about Jiang Xiao’s actions. For example, they called him “actor,””drama queen,””scheming B * tch,” and so on …
This was what happened during the three days when Jiang Xiao was out of the internet. The team didn’t know about this, but they could clearly feel that Xia Yan was under a lot of pressure.
She probably didn’t hear any rumors, so the pressure should be on herself.
Jiang Xiao walked over, raised the giant sword with one hand, and sat down beside Xia Yan. He then put the giant sword down and placed it on his lap.
Xia Yan remained unmoved and touched the wooden giant sword over and over again.
Some people were tyrants in their own fields, and they were the same in the National competition.
And some, who were unparalleled in their hometown, had mediocre performances in the National competition.
Xia Yan obviously belonged to the latter. She looked at Han Jiangxue and then at herself, feeling a huge gap and pressure.
It turned out that the top student really scored 100 points because the total score of the paper was only 100 points. She only got 99 because her standard was only at 99.
In the past few days, Xia Yan was not happy. She only felt happy for Han Jiangxue when she acquired two star techniques in one star.
Since then, Xia Yan had become more and more depressed.
Unlike li Weiyi, who was calm and composed, Xia Yan was a little impatient and she really didn’t want to fall too far behind Han Jiangxue.
The two of them were childhood friends and indeed had a deep friendship. However, if this continued, she would not even be qualified to be on the same team as Han Jiangxue. Fortunately, she had advanced to the peak of the Nebula stage a few days ago. Otherwise, she would be in an even worse mood.
Not performing well in the game, not being able to catch up with his friends, and so on … All kinds of worries pressed down on her heart, causing this crazy Husky Xia to completely calm down.
Han Jiangxue took note of it. It had been a few days, but her comfort had not been effective. This made Han Jiangxue feel helpless and at a loss of what to do.
“Du du du! Great Bay High School wins!” The referee’s whistle on TV pulled everyone back to reality.
Jiang Xiao gently nudged Xia Yan’s shoulder and said,””After Tianjin Nankai High School and haisu Normal University compete for the third and fourth place, it’s time for us to go on stage.”
“Yes,” Xia Yan replied.
Jiang Xiao scratched his head helplessly.”Coaxing women is the most troublesome.”
“So?” Xia Yan turned around and raised her eyebrows.
Jiang Xiao chuckled and said,’so …’ Can you become a man?”
Xia Yan was speechless.
Jiang Xiao put an arm around Xia Yan’s shoulder and said,””Remember! You’re a man! A man should have the power to swallow mountains and rivers, and must also have lofty aspirations. How can love be too long and a hero’s spirit short?”
Xia Yan was speechless.
How did I suddenly become a man?
“Get your spirits up!” Jiang Xiao patted Xia Yan’s shoulder heavily and said,””Victory! You and I drink big mouthfuls of wine and eat big bowls of meat. Defeat! You and I will regroup and start over again!”
Xia Yan’s lips twitched awkwardly and she said,””Thank you,”
Jiang Xiao put his arm around Xia Yan’s shoulder and said politely,””Good brother, a blanket!”
Xia Yan finally couldn’t take it anymore and pushed Jiang Xiao away with her shoulder. She was initially sullen, but she finally smiled and chided,””Who wants to be with you forever?”
Jiang Xiao thought to himself, I don’t have to spend a lifetime. A blanket is enough.
When we meet in the golden wind and jade dew, we will go our separate ways tomorrow.
Wouldn’t it be great if he only cared about his kidneys and not his heart?
Damn it, I’m really a little wimp.
