Translator: 549690339
“You’re here, Jiang xiaopi. ” A middle-aged man’s voice came from the side.
“Eh?” Jiang Xiao looked away reluctantly and glanced at the people beside him.
“Ha, Good Morning, leader.” Jiang Xiao stood up and said with a smile.
“Sit.” Wu Ji pressed a hand on Jiang Xiao’s shoulder and made him sit on the chair.
Jiang Xiao said,”you’re very well-informed, leader. I’ve only been here for a while.”
!!
Wu Ji waved his hand.”What leader? just call me brother Wu.”
Obviously, both Jiang Xiao and Wu Ji appreciated each other’s talent.
Jiang Xiao was the kind of person who would return the favor if others showed him respect.
Wu Ji was not only the person in charge of the national team’s individual competition, but he was also a warrior of the former wasteland reclaimers. Two years ago, the night guard summoned Jiang Xiao to carry out a mission, and Wu Ji let him go without saying a word.
That wasn’t a big deal. After all, it was an order from the higher-ups. Most importantly, Jiang Xiao was rather touched by Wu Ji’s attitude when he saw him off.
Was it rare to see leaders who were high and mighty and thought that they had a little power? It was impossible for ordinary people to say things like “comrades came back alive.”
Of course, he had to say it to the right person. Jiang Xiao was obviously the same kind of person as Wu Ji.
“You’ve been looking at her, how is it? Don’t you look familiar?” Wu Ji said with a smile, looking down at the competition.
At this time, the national team’s individual competition was finally decided. It was the final selection of 9 out of 18.
This year’s individual competition didn’t have the same tricks as last year ‘s. It was a Pure 1V1. If you were good, you would go up. If you weren’t good, you would go down. Fists were the only way to speak. Nothing else mattered.
Of course, compared to the cruel Elimination System of the World Cup, the selection of the national team was more humane.
If you lose one round, fine, I’ll give you a chance to continue fighting in the loser’s group.
You’ve lost two rounds. Fine, you’re unlucky. Go to the pending group and try again.
You lost three rounds … Well, bye.
Jiang Xiao nodded gently and said,””She looks familiar, too familiar. Her only weakness is that she’s prettier than me.”
Wu Ji was speechless.
Jiang Xiao looked at the girl with a buzz cut, only to see that she was holding a giant sword in her hand and suppressing a douzhan like a Mad Dog, beating him up so badly that he couldn’t fight back at all. Such a one-sided battle didn’t seem like a competition stage where the final participants were about to be decided after rounds of selection.
Logically speaking, after entering this final stage, the strength of each team member should be more or less the same.
As the main person-in-charge, Wu Ji was, of course, well-aware of the students under him. He knew Jiang Xiao very well and knew that he was mischievous. He was also trying his best to accept the way he chatted.
“Oh?” Wu Ji paused.”Did you notice anything else different?”
Jiang Xiao thought for a while and said uncertainly,””The truth?”
“Of course,” Wu Ji said, smiling.”I have to tell you the truth.”
“Mm …” Jiang Xiao’s expression turned serious and he hesitated for a while before saying,”she built her Foundation with my giant sword technique as her Foundation. However, at this time, she has completely broken away from the Xia family swordsmanship and has formed her own style.”
“If you have to say that she is a disciple of someone, it is definitely not me, but the ghost-faced monk.”
Jiang Xiao licked his lips as if he had seen a rare opponent and was eager to give it a try. He continued,””Outsiders will think that she’s imitating me because there are fewer Star Warriors in China who use giant blades, and I’m more famous. So, when she sees someone holding a giant blade, she will think that she’s imitating me.
In fact, her current blade technique doesn’t have any similarities with my blade technique. I don’t know what her blade skills were like in the past, but in this competition, she only used the same weapon as me. ”
Hearing this, Wu Ji nodded thoughtfully. Although they were all soldiers with extremely high qualities and excellent vision, Wu Ji was not an expert in the unique field of two-handed heavy cold weapons, especially giant blades.
Wu Ji asked,”can you be more specific?” Give me a conclusion that a layman can understand. ”
Jiang Xiao shrugged his shoulders and said,”my sword is considered very conservative compared to hers.” Her knife is purely meant to kill. Look at her every little action. Her real stage is definitely not on the field. ”
“I’ve talked to qingchen in private many times,” Wu Ji said softly.”She’s been fighting her way through these past few years with the company of one ghost-faced monk after another. Her style can’t be changed.”
“Change?” Jiang Xiao was stunned for a moment. He turned to look at Wu Ji and asked,”why do you want to change it?” Don’t kill a soldier because of a competition. ”
“Of course.” Wu Ji smiled.”I didn’t think that much. I just wanted to reduce the casualties. As you said, every opponent who has fought with her has completely lost their ability to fight. Fortunately, our medical staff in the selection is very outstanding. ”
Jiang Xiao turned around to look at the arena, only to see the nervous medical team outside the protective shield.
Wu Ji sighed and said,”she’s from a martial arts family in the Central Plains. She’s been practicing martial arts since she was a child. Her talent is terrifying.” Her parents were both melee and combat fighters. Her family thought that she had the potential to become a melee Star Warrior, but they didn’t expect that she would really awaken the star map, but it was a medical star map. ”
Jiang Xiao expressed assent and continued to listen. Since Wu Ji was telling the story, he should be making a move.
“When she was in high school,” Wu Ji continued,”she killed her own talent and became an average Medical Assistant. She became a team commander, standing at the back of the team and protecting her team. Although it’s not outstanding, it’s enough to pass. ”
Wu Ji put an arm around Jiang Xiao’s shoulder and said,””Your appearance is like a Savior to her.”
Jiang Xiao scratched his head in embarrassment.
“You don’t have to be like this,” Wu Ji said.”I’m just telling the truth.” “In 2017, a medical Star Warrior appeared out of nowhere and stood at the top of the world. At the same time, the appearance of this healer liberated a group of medical Star Warriors who were bound by the rules and a group of soldiers who were forcibly suppressing their talents.”
Jiang Xiao was speechless.
Wu Ji: “Yi qingchen is only the most outstanding one. Do you know how many medical Star Warriors signed up for the national team’s individual competition this year?”
Jiang Xiao thought to himself,’I’m so sorry …’
Wu Ji said helplessly,”there’s nothing we can do about it. This is how China’s education system works. The rules of the college entrance examination are here, and the teachers ‘training methods are here. Everyone knows what kind of profession they should train in.” This is the rule and tradition. ”
While speaking, Jiang Xiao leaned back slightly and couldn’t help but smile under the mask.
That was because Jiang Xiao saw an interesting scene.
On the battlefield below, Yi qingchen’s blade had pierced through his opponent’s chest. This wasn’t the end. Her subconscious action was to abandon her blade and move forward. Her right hand swiped from the side of her leg, and the cold dagger directly swiped towards her opponent’s throat.
Hu …
A gust of wind swept out, and Yi qingchen was directly blown away. The medical team immediately went up to the stage. The appearance of the wind was naturally the action of the medical team.
A person like Yi qingchen would definitely not be the main character in a movie. His opponent was already dead, so why would he still have to deal the finishing blow? He still had to cut his throat?
If that was the case, how was the plot supposed to continue?
Give the villain a chance. Let the villain shout,”I’ll be back”…
Was this Yi qingchen’s body’s natural reaction the same as the ghost-faced monk ‘s?
Wu Ji patted Jiang Xiao’s back and said,””Let me see what’s the difference between you two.”
Jiang Xiao was stunned for a moment and turned to look at Wu Ji.””A personal request or a request from the leader?”
Wu Ji laughed heartily,””The leader requested that your brother Wu put on airs with you today. If you win against her, you will be the captain of the national team.”
“I have to travel between two places. If I were to be the team leader …” Jiang Xiao said with a troubled expression.
Wu Ji interrupted Jiang Xiao and said,””Let’s beat her first. ”
On the green field, the medical team carried the injured down and treated them frantically.
Yi qingchen expressionlessly wiped away the blood on his face, picked up the giant blade that had fallen on the ground, and walked out of the green field. The students who were watching the battle all kept a respectful distance from her. Some of them were even very dissatisfied with her.
This was just a competition, and it was a competition within the national team. Although a life and death battle might occur, every time Yi qingchen went on stage, it would definitely happen …
Yi qingchen also knew that he wasn’t well-liked by others, but since she had chosen to walk this path despite the pressure, she wouldn’t easily change her style.
Buzzzzzz!
A figure suddenly appeared behind Yi qingchen.
Yi qingchen’s eyes suddenly widened, and his subconscious reaction was to kick backwards.
However, her extremely quick reaction and confident attack missed.
Yi qingchen’s brows were tightly furrowed as he turned around, only to see a ‘fully armed’ youth standing 10 meters away.
The young man was dressed in gaudy clothes, a hoodie with Bamboo Bear graffiti printed on it, and sweatpants. Under the hoodie was a cap that was pressed very low, and he was wearing a mask.
Jiang Xiao waved his hand at the contestants in the spectator area and said in a muffled voice,””Cut the queue.”
Jiang Xiao’s wave of his hand allowed him to see a few familiar faces. Wu Haoyang from North military school, Ying Xi from Beijing star martial Academy, and Liu Yang.
He only knew these third-year students. The others were probably mostly fourth-year students.
It seemed that the high school students who could enter the National competition had a high success rate.
Excellence, let us meet again!
Jiang Xiao couldn’t help but praise himself …
“You, you … You are …” Not far away, Yi qingchen’s surprised voice rang out.
Jiang Xiao smiled and nodded at her. Unfortunately, his smile was hidden behind his mask. He took a closer look at his opponent and couldn’t help but nod.
She was tall and had long arms and legs. Her physical talent was visible to the naked eye. It would be a waste of her body if she was not a melee fighter. And her delicate face was also worthy of her fairy-like name. If she had long hair and wore a long dress, she would probably be very beautiful.
After sizing up his opponent, Jiang Xiao turned around and gestured to the giant sword in front of the third row, which should be Yi qingchen’s spare weapon. He said,””Cattle, sheep, throw me that giant blade.”
The audience looked at each other in bewilderment, not knowing who Jiang Xiao was calling.
A few seconds passed, and no one moved. Some students were unhappy. Where did this bastard come from? Was he cursing? Saying that we are cows and sheep?
Jiang Xiao said to Wu Haoyang,”Alright, alright. Beast, hurry and throw me the sword. It’s awkward!”
Wu Haoyang’s face darkened. He stood up and walked over quickly, picked up the giant sword, and threw it from afar.
Jiang Xiao turned sideways and grabbed the handle of the giant sword that was coming at him rapidly, after which he received Wu Haoyang’s attack that was filled with resentment.
When the participating students below the stage saw this action, they began to discuss it.
“F * ck, did he … God Pi?”
“Is it really him? The more I look at her figure, the more similar she looks. ”
“Oh, Li Gui met Li Kui today, haha!”
“There’s finally someone who can deal with that crazy woman!”
On the green field, Jiang Xiao swung the sword and looked at the giant steel sword from left to right. He weighed it up and down and tried its weight, only to find that it felt pretty good.
Ten meters away, Yi qingchen lowered his head slightly and fiddled with his blood-stained fingers. He seemed to be a little nervous as he said in a small voice,””God, God Pi … How are you doing?”
Jiang Xiao was dumbfounded.
Yi! Light! Dust!
What are you being so shy about with me?
You just F * cking killed someone!
Uh … Fine, I won’t kill those who can be saved, but your condition …
The scene in front of him was beyond Jiang Xiao’s imagination. He initially thought that the man who had been in seclusion for more than two years and killed his way out of the ghost-faced monks would be abnormal, or at least a little sick.
You’re cold, you’re arrogant, you’re arrogant, you’re autistic … You’ve never done anything wrong, and I’m ready to fight you, but you’re here with me shyly acting like a fangirl?
What kind of godly development was this?
Why is your heart so tough?
I killed my way out of the White ghouls, and I still looked lifeless!
You fought your way out of the group of ghost-faced monks, and you’re still so healthy? Shouldn’t you be grinning like the ghost-faced monk?
Jiang Xiao pointed his giant sword at Yi qingchen and said,””Come on.”
Yi qingchen bit his lips. Under his clean crew cut was a delicate and pretty face that was stained with blood. The scene was a little strange.
She looked at Jiang Xiao with her beautiful eyes. Perhaps because she was a little nervous, she spoke in Mandarin with a hint of her local accent.”Missed? I have something to tell you. ”
Some people were goddesses just because they didn’t open their mouths …
Jiang Xiao scratched his head and imitated her accent before saying in a half-baked Central Plains Chinese,””Xuxu, what are you doing?”
Yi qingchen was speechless.
