Chapter 0007: Two Greedy Souls
What are you all shouting about? Disturbing the elder's sleep, do you all deserve a beating? That person, yes, it's the pretty boy Zuo Feng, hurry up and restore order. Lan Xinrui doesn't dare to show up, what are you here for? Those who wish to take action must present a trophy collected from a sonic lizard, limited to one attempt per person. Of course, a second attempt is also allowed, but you must present two trophies from the sonic lizard.
The first one to jump out was defeated, followed closely by the second, then the third, and the fourth. Each time, they gave people a glimmer of hope, yet each time they were knocked down again.
After a heated argument, the slightly overweight blue-eyed youth emerged victorious. It was not that he had hunted the most soundwave lizards, but rather that he had the most people indebted to him. Using the elimination of debts as an incentive, he acquired thirteen pieces of loot, in addition to his own five pieces, totaling eighteen pieces of loot handed over to William.
Is it not insidious enough? Turning Xinrui into that state, and instead profiting greatly from this incident, truly makes one think it was intentional, using Xinrui's suitors to gain benefits
"You with the surname Xuanyuan, you are capable! I hope you maintain this state. When you return to the campsite, you will stay for a night. The one who can truly defeat you is not here, so be mindful of yourself." Zuo Feng turned to leave. To be honest, he was not confident in overcoming this suddenly emerging treacherous individual.
Uh! What did Zuo Feng just say? Can we stay at the camp for one more night? Nan Xing, you must continue to fight; I feel we are not far from the ion cannon.
If William were not present, Zuo Feng believed that it would not be a problem to deal with Xuan Yuan Nan Xing with a few trusted confidants. If it could not be done openly, it could be done covertly. However, with the addition of William, the situation changed significantly. The opponent actually had the capability to hunt down the Oyster Red Eagle, and without the formation of at least dozens of people, it would be difficult to achieve success.
The first thing William did upon opening his eyes was to protect the spoils he and Nanxing had acquired. Then, while yawning, he looked around and saw about fifty students. The person at the forefront looked somewhat familiar; his name seemed to be Zuo Feng.
Are there any objections? Regardless of who comes, this is the rule, absolutely fair and reasonable. Those with objections, or who want to join in, can come at me, William; we are not afraid of a brawl.
No, my mother said that happiness is having an endless supply of Federation credits. If you want to buy diamonds, buy diamonds; if you want to buy an ion cannon, buy an ion cannon
In this era, most women are robust and strong, and long-term exercise has given them a good physique. Delicate and feminine beauties are quite rare, at least among this graduating class in the academy, making them a scarce resource. It is no wonder that everyone is eager to pursue them
At this moment, the boys nearby instead cheered for Nanxing: "With the surname Xuanyuan, you cannot lose, absolutely cannot lose. If you must lose, let it be to me. If you can't even handle a fat guy, then you are not a man"
Pah, what is that supposed to be, three sound wave lizards, I am out
Zuo Feng observed coldly from the sidelines. Perhaps others were unaware of the prowess of Xuan Yuan Nan Xing, but he had some understanding. A person who could pose a challenge to the magician Sabo must certainly be extraordinary. However, he remained skeptical and decided to watch a little longer before determining whether to step forward.
"He has lost, he has lost! I will offer ten shares of the spoils, and no one should compete with me for them." A new round of bidding began, and Nanxing was in high demand, while William stood by, unable to contain his laughter.
The night completely enveloped the forest, having consumed the last two acorns. The two individuals sought a way to gather dry branches and leaves to ignite a bonfire. Just as they were drowsily drifting into dreams alongside the flickering flames and * illustrations *, clear footsteps were heard.
You all stand aside, isn't it just a little bit of trivial matter? I don't care about this small amount of money, it is not tied to credits, take the teeth and soft skin of the two lizards
Figures emerged from all directions, seemingly premeditated, surrounding the two individuals in the center
Alright! It is becoming increasingly lively, causing William to blink in surprise. He did not expect the situation to develop to this extent, almost resembling a small auction, with such fierce competition. However, this is generally a good thing
Zuo Feng paid no attention to the noise around him. If Xuan Yuan Nan Xing were alone, would there be any need for such elaborate measures? The key issue lies with William
Hehe, great aspirations! Perhaps years from now, when we reminisce about today, we will feel that it was happiness. Remember to bring the sound wave lizard teeth and soft leather back to Jialan Star for sale, as that will yield more profit. Do not casually sell them to the instructor. As for the eagle claws and eagle heads, sell them to Chief Examiner Wilson; the cabin is too small to accommodate these items.
"You bunch of bastards, what’s the point of all this nonsense? Draw your swords." Someone impatiently activated the laser sword, its blue blade gleaming menacingly in the night.
After a round of competition, Nan Xing felt invigorated and energized; not only did he not feel tired, but he actually felt quite refreshed. Nearby, only a few students led by Zuo Feng remained, while the others went about their own business. No one was so bored as to take another shot; that would be self-torture
Well, rest assured, such a lucrative deal is rare. How many portions do you have there? I have a total of thirty-nine portions here
As they gazed at the increasing spoils surrounding William, some individuals, feeling disheartened, chose to retreat, while others remained, willing to give it a try
Nanxing finds it very interesting. Initially, it was thought to be a troublesome matter, but unexpectedly, it is developing in a favorable direction related to books. In any case, earning more federal currency is always beneficial. Whether considering the situation at home or the impending entry into the workforce, a sum of money is necessary. Moreover, a high-performance lightsaber can enhance the survival factor.
William nodded earnestly; he felt that being with Nanxing was truly wonderful, and perhaps they could realize that grand ideal. What made him even more comfortable was that the two of them always had common topics to discuss. After talking about the happiest things, they turned to discussing the most delicious foods on Galan Star, the most profitable businesses at the academy, and the coolest new equipment. Moreover, they had many similarities: both had two older brothers and two younger sisters, both owned a dog named Abu, and both enjoyed watching the TV series "Star Ranger." This was probably fate; they had already become friends.
Young man, bless me and Xin Rui
"Oh, oh, oh, Nanxing, what do you think is the happiest thing in the world?" William hoisted two enormous eagle claws, holding the unblinking head of the eagle in his hand, swaying as he walked behind.
"What? What are you saying? There are so many of us..." Before the words were finished, a sharp whistle was heard as William picked up a stone and hurled it at the unfortunate fellow, breaking at least three of his ribs
In contrast, Nanxing appeared "calm and composed," or perhaps was simply intimidated by the scene before him, sitting there without daring to utter a word, which further convinced everyone that he was an easy target to manipulate
Everyone couldn't help but look down upon such a defeat, lacking any skill, which truly brought shame to the Galan Star War Academy. It is evident that this Xuanyuan Nanxing possesses little ability; the reason he associates with William is likely due to their similar approaches.
Lan Xinrui made a promise that whoever could defeat Xuanyuan Nanxing would be her boyfriend. In the past two days, many people have been searching for the bastard who suddenly appeared and harmed their ideal goddess. They felt that no number of lives would be enough to compensate for this, so there was no need for Zuo Feng to think of ways to gather them; all the nearby suitors had already gathered.
"Hahaha, good! The highest bidder wins," William laughed, clapping his hands.
Being young is wonderful, filled with a sense of vitality. Perhaps it is due to having faced too few failures; when achieving even a small success, the exuberance within cannot be fully expressed even through loud cheers.
"Wow, making bold statements, this is what is known as making bold statements." Nanxing, with his youthful spirit, approached with excitement, happily counting the spoils with William.
The happiest thing? Perhaps it is love! I have heard that many people cannot extricate themselves and willingly choose to be foolish.
"Do not come over, do not come over!" Nanxing shouted in panic, attempting to grab the crossbow. As a result, a streak of blue sword light swept by, nearly severing one of his arms, which caused the blue-eyed youth to burst into laughter.
The journey back was quite smooth, likely due to the presence of the oyster hawk, which deterred the sound wave lizards from causing any trouble. As I passed a small lake that glimmered with a faint green light, I saw a group of five engaged in combat with someone, unsure if they had gathered enough lizards.
Among the students who gathered around, someone shouted in dissatisfaction: "Zuo Feng, did you call Xin Rui? This Xuan Yuan Nan Xing is mine. As long as I deal with him, Xin Rui will be my girlfriend"
The speed of the battle was astonishing, the bridge of the blue-eyed boy's nose had collapsed inward, and the laser sword had already been thrown aside.
Hmph, I have finally found you, Xuanyuan Nanxing. After injuring Xinrui to such an extent, do you think you can just walk away? I challenge you to a duel
Nanxing smiled faintly. Although the other party was numerous and powerful, their hearts were not united. He leaned close to William and whispered a few words, causing the Iron Tower youth and Tushu to light up with excitement.
Everyone is not a fool; after the sixth person fell, they all realized they had been tricked. However, at this moment, when they wanted to join forces, they suddenly discovered that William had pulled out a small tree from somewhere. Although it was just a small tree, it was still four to five meters long. It seems that becoming Lan Xinrui's boyfriend is as difficult as ascending to the heavens.
I have arrived. The quick-reacting youth immediately took out his teeth and soft skin, fearing that he might miss the opportunity if he hesitated even for a moment. William is indeed difficult to deal with, but this Xuanyuan Nanxing has been inconspicuous, and no one ever knew that such a figure existed in the academy. Moreover, everyone has visited Lan Xinrui, and the injury was caused by the sound wave lizard, which is likely a result of Xuanyuan's accidental misfire, inadvertently harming the goddess.
It seems that Xuanyuan Nanxing shows mercy in every battle, never putting his opponents to death. A few teeth and a piece of skin are all that is at stake, and selling them for fifty Federal Coins is already a high price. Can one not afford that? What if one happens to win? However, this young man is indeed quite skilled, executing basic sword techniques with great finesse; perhaps one could learn a few moves from him.
It is quite unexpected that this academy's widely recognized powerhouse has actually teamed up with Xuanyuan Nanxing. Moreover, seeing them chatting and laughing together, seemingly without any guard against each other, it is highly likely that they have been acquainted for a long time, just waiting to act together during the graduation assessment
The sword light swung again, unexpectedly causing Xuan Yuan Nan Xing to roar in fury. Instead of retreating, he charged forward, seizing the blue-eyed youth's wrist with his left hand and forcefully headbutting his opponent's nose, resembling a small wild bull.
"Get lost, Xin Rui is mine"
On what basis are you the first
"Hehe, the lightsaber is blind; if it unfortunately strikes you down, blame William instead." The blue-eyed youth, feeling quite at ease, brandished his lightsaber and charged forward.
