It was sealed off, but outsiders had no way of knowing if they were training or not.
As soon as they entered the training facility provided by the organizing committee, Xiao Bai had Big Beauty take over the facility's system.
Hm, not invade, but take over.
That sounded better. Flowing Light Moon Fairy was a fairy with status, so he couldn't always use the word "invade". That would make it seem too invasive.
"Okay, it's safe now. From the outside world's point of view, the five of you can peacefully train here." Big Beauty instantly took over the facility's system and informed Shirō Makino.
The so-called sealed off training facility was completely sealed off.
Apart from the internet and poop, nothing else could flow out of the facility.
Eating, drinking, and pooping were all done in the facility.
No one from the outside was allowed to enter.
During the competition, the participating teams would be free of charge to use this training venue.
They could use it for as long as they wanted!
There was still one more week before the elimination round would begin. Only after the top 18 had been determined would the next round of lots be drawn for the final elimination round of the branch arena!
After this elimination round, the top nine teams of the branch arena would be decided, and then the round robin would begin. The nine teams would fight one match at a time, and the top three teams would enter the finals based on points.
As the team that didn't have a bye, Xiao Bai's team's next match wouldn't take place until at least twenty days later.
Therefore, they could stay in seclusion for as long as they wanted to during this closed-door training.
Before entering the facility, they first settled their family members and the school leaders of Hundred Blossom High.
Their words were the same. They didn't even need to agree on anything beforehand.
The two drunk youths used their drunkenness as an opportunity to settle some of the small conflicts that had accumulated in their daily lives.
Deep grudges?
Are you kidding me?
Other people might not know, but as family, don't you know that we've been through life and death together?
What are you all doing here?
Hurry up and go home!
We're fine!
Dealing with outsiders wasn't tiring, but dealing with your own family was.
As for entering the facility for sealed off training, that was very simple.
"The atmosphere outside is too intense. We're just a bunch of kids, so we can't handle it. In order to not affect everyone's mood, we've decided to use an automated method when we draw lots. We won't accept any interviews before the match. We'll appear directly at the competition center right before the match begins. "
That was what Liu Zhiyuan said.
Of course, he didn't know why he was doing this.
Because this was Xiao Bai's idea.
"It's safe here for now."
In the huge training hall, all the necessary facilities were available. It was very comprehensive. From the virtual cabin, to all kinds of training equipment, to a lot of fresh food.
Shirō Makino smiled and emphasized to his companions, "Feel free to speak your mind."
"F * ck? Really? Speak freely here? Xiao Bai, are you sure? "Shan Gu threw out a series of questions.
From last night until now, he was about to go crazy!
He knew very well that something must have happened that he was unaware of.
The relationship between Liu and his Brother Bai was definitely not that kind of relationship!
As for those speculations that were spreading all over the internet … F * ck them!
That was a group of people with unknown intentions, doing evil in the dark!
A group of treacherous maggots. If your daddy Shan Gu catches them, I'll give each of them an arrow!
Although he knew that it was nothing, the problem was … he wanted to know the reason.
Didn't you see how haggard Chae Yi looked after not sleeping for the whole night?
She must be in a worse state than me!
From the looks of it, other than her final stubbornness — her trust in Liu Zhiyuan and Xiao Bai, there was nothing else!
Her boyfriend and her best friend were fighting in the middle of the street!
It was good enough that she could still maintain her composure.
So, even now, Ji Chae Yi's expression was still cold.
Si Yin looked at them weakly. "That … who can tell me, what happened?"
"Then come here, let me rub your head." Ji Chae Yi said expressionlessly.
If it was in the past, she would have run away.
I'm already a level eight warrior!
Can't you respect a super beautiful high-level warrior? Can't you stop thinking about that every day?
But now, looking at Chae Yi's haggard appearance after not sleeping for the whole night, Si Yin's heart ached. She moved over reluctantly.
"Then, I'll rub it for you, just for a while …"
Ji Chae Yi expressionlessly stretched out her hands and rubbed Si Yin's beautiful mushroom head into a mess.
Then, she suddenly smiled.
Si Yin raised her head and stared blankly at Ji Chae Yi who was smiling beautifully. She was a little dazed.
She even forgot about the unhappiness of having her hair rubbed and asked worriedly, "Chae Yi, are … are you okay?"
"What can happen to me? Both of them are fine, why would I be? "Ji Chae Yi said in high spirits." How was it? Did I act realistically enough? Was my acting good? Are you guys impressed? "
Shan Gu asked cautiously, "Are you … really acting?"
"If not?" Ji Chae Yi frowned. She glanced at Shan Gu and asked again, "If not?"
"Uh … yes, Miss Tycoon's acting skills are superb. What can those Interstellar movie queens do? Trash! "Shan Gu said loudly.
Then, he looked at Ji Caiyi and asked, "Is it really an act?"
"Get lost!" Ji Chae Yi glared at him.
Act my ass!
She didn't sleep for the whole night!
She felt terrible for the whole night!
This silly girl was already in a bad mood because of Liu Zhiyuan's departure. In the blink of an eye, something like this happened.
Her boyfriend seemed to have lost his mind. After drinking a little, his behavior could only be described as ugly.
Ji Caiyi, who was more knowledgeable, instantly linked Liu Zhiyuan to a character in a novel from the Milky Way Era.
That person's name was Fan Jin.
Liu's behavior at the hotpot restaurant last night was very similar to Fan Jin's after he passed the provincial examination.
It was a pity that he didn't have a group of people around him.
This was because each of his companions had the confidence and ability to enter The First Academy.
Not to mention, as long as each of them used up two Spiritual Pearls, who wouldn't be able to enter The First Academy?
As for Xiao Bai, he was an 18-year-old Advanced Talisman Artist. Not to mention, he was also a straight-A student. Would such a person be jealous of Liu Zhiyuan being specially recruited into The First Academy?
How arrogant did Liu Zhiyuan have to be to have such an attitude?
Therefore, even if her family rushed over overnight, even if Xiao Bai and Liu Zhiyuan smiled and put their arms around each other's shoulders to explain to their family.
She still felt angry.
She was extremely disappointed in Liu Zhiyuan!
Thinking of all the things that happened between the two of them all these years, she even had the urge to burst into tears.
It was only when they entered the training hall that Xiao Bai said, "It's safe here now!"
It was as if a bolt of lightning had struck Ji Chae Yi's mind.
What did Xiao Bai mean?
The intelligent Ji Chae Yi came back to her senses.
Although she didn't understand what had happened, she could tell that after Xiao Bai said that, Liu Zhiyuan's aura had changed!
The awkwardness and even distortion that had suddenly appeared in his body for the past few days would disappear in an instant.
So … nothing had changed?
So … all of you were acting?
Ji Chae Yi heaved a sigh of relief, but at the same time, she became even angrier.
Then, she vented her anger on Shan Gu, who had come to her on his own accord.
Xiao Bai? His looks made it hard for people to scold or hit him.
Si Yin? She couldn't bear to.
Liu? Err, she couldn't bear to.
Then, it could only be Shan Gu. Who asked him to come to her on his own accord?
Seeing that Ji Chae Yi was fine, Shan Gu breathed a sigh of relief. Getting scolded was nothing to him.
He chuckled and said, "Since it's safe now, let's talk about what happened. What are you guys trying to pull off? "
Liu Zhiyuan frowned slightly and turned to look at Shirō Makino. "Are you sure? This place … is it safe? "
Shirō Makino smiled and nodded. "Did you forget about my network ability?"
"Bah! It's the network ability of the artificial intelligence beside you, right? "Ji Chae Yi glared at Shirō Makino." Stinky Xiao Bai, you are not a good person either! "
Shirō Makino shrugged. "This matter is mainly your Liu's fault."
"I don't care!" Ji Chae Yi angrily sat down on the sofa.
All of them walked over and sat down.
Si Yin looked at Ji Chae Yi strangely and asked, "Sister Chae Yi, Brother Bai has a powerful artificial intelligence?"
Ji Chae Yi said angrily, "Ask your Brother Bai! If he doesn't have a powerful artificial intelligence, why would the trial field in Giant City be open to us for free? What right does his godsister have to take away the management rights? "
"Godsister?" Si Yin was confused.
"The vice-principal of the Hundred Flowers Art School, Sun Yuelin. You've seen that beauty many times!" Ji Chae Yi said.
"Oh, oh, oh, it's that sister. She's so beautiful!" Si Yin said.
Ji Chae Yi: "…" Heartless little thing, do you even understand what I'm saying?
Liu Zhiyuan let out a long sigh of relief and said, "It's good that you're safe. I've been suffocating these past few days!"
As he spoke, he stood up and bowed to the four of them. Because he moved so quickly, no one had time to react before Old Liu finished his action.
"First of all, I have to apologize to everyone. It's my fault."
Shan Gu: "Liu, if you have something to say, say it. It's not New Year or New Year. I won't give you a red packet for such a big gift."
Ji Chae Yi: "That's it?"
Shirō Makino: "Liu, you don't have to do this."
Si Yin: "Huh?"
Liu Zhiyuan waved his hand and said, "What I owe everyone is not just an explanation, but also a favor. It's all my fault that you've been worried for so many days. "
Then, Liu Zhiyuan began to tell the story from the first day they came to Bai Yue City.
On the night they arrived, someone accompanied by a leader of the division committee found him.
He said that he was here especially for him!
Liu was also a person who liked to show off. Facing such a situation, he of course wouldn't have stage fright and started chatting with the person.
The person from the division committee left after arriving, leaving the time for this mysterious person.
The person introduced himself gently and said that he was from The First Academy. Then, he opened the official website of The First Academy, found his photo on the recruitment page, and pointed it out to Liu Zhiyuan.
Moreover, the person was accompanied by someone from the division committee. Of course, Liu Zhiyuan couldn't underestimate him.
But at that time, he thought that this person was coming for their group!
He was quite happy at that time.
"Although I knew what Xiao Bai wanted to do, I still thought that it would be better if the five of us could enter The First Academy together."
Liu Zhiyuan smiled bitterly. "Who knew what he said next. The First Academy wanted to recruit me and only me … to become a student of The First Academy. As for the faculty, I could choose whatever I wanted!"
"You agreed to it at that time?" Ji Chae Yi glanced at him. This was what she was most concerned about.
"Of course I couldn't agree to it! I said at that time that we weren't in a hurry to choose a university. Moreover, the five of us would advance and retreat together! "As he spoke, Liu Zhiyuan threw out a recording.
"I was careful when communicating with a stranger, so I left a recording as evidence. At least this can prove my innocence, right?"
Liu Zhiyuan looked at Ji Chae Yi with a wronged expression. Then, he looked at Shirō Makino and said, "Xiao Bai, you can verify its authenticity."
Shirō Makino waved his hand. "Verify my nonsense. Go on. "
"After that, that person said he would visit me in two days." Liu Zhiyuan recalled. "The second time he came to see me was after our second competition. That time, he came with the special admission letter from The First Academy."
"For the first time, I just felt a little weird. Needless to say, how could I not know how much I'm worth? In terms of knowledge, Chae Yi, Shan Gu and Xiao Bai are all better than me! "
Si Yin asked, "Me, what about me?"
Liu Zhiyuan's lips twitched. "Alright, I forgot about you. You're not worse than me."
"Hehehe." Si Yin's face was filled with satisfaction.
Although she was confused, she could still see the atmosphere clearly. Jumping out to act cute could liven up the atmosphere.
Liu Zhiyuan smiled. "But when they came to me the second time, I started to have doubts! Why would The First Academy take a liking to me? Is it really because of my analytical ability? I'm not being humble. I'm really good at this, but am I good enough for The First Academy to come across the galaxy to recruit me? I don't think it's that serious. Even if it's a special admission, it should be from a military school, not them! "
"Unless they've investigated me and know what my ambitions and ideals are."
"But why would they investigate me? That can only mean that they have other intentions! "
Liu Zhiyuan said, "To be honest, regardless of the reason, I'm not against the idea of entering The First Academy. I thought about it for a long time and felt that if there was a trap, it would be aimed at Xiao Bai! So my only worry was that it would be disadvantageous to Xiao Bai! "
Shirō Makino was about to speak.
Liu Zhiyuan shook his head at him. "Xiao Bai, you don't have to tell me who your enemy is. Even if it's safe here, don't say it here. I believe that since the other party is so powerful, they won't be a small fry. They've tried so hard to get me into The First Academy, so it's impossible for them to not contact me! So I'll deal with them myself. Since I don't know anything, I won't be exposed. Don't worry, I'll be fine! "
"You'll be in danger if you do that." Ji Chae Yi couldn't take it anymore and said.
"Chae Yi, I won't be in danger if I do that!" Liu Zhiyuan looked at Ji Chae Yi tenderly and said to the rest, "Think about it. What they want is to drive a wedge between Xiao Bai and me and divide us. We directly omitted this step for them. We are already hiding in the training hall and training in isolation. It looks like there are already cracks in our training. But I don't know anything. How easy would it be for them to bribe me? They'll succeed the moment they bribed me … "
Ji Chae Yi: "…"
Shirō Makino: "…"
Shan Gu's face was full of shock. Only now did he finally understand … Although he didn't fully understand, he knew that what Old Liu was about to face was probably far beyond their imagination.
"Don't worry about me. Just like how Xiao Bai wants to become the Great Talisman Artist, Chae Yi wants to become a great Soul Warrior, and Shan Gu wants to become the best Archer …"
"What about me?" Si Yin glared at Liu Zhiyuan. "Why do you always forget about me?"
"Haha, sorry, sorry. I did it on purpose. Erm, I didn't do it on purpose." Old Liu couldn't help but crack a joke. "Just like our Si Xiaoyin, she wants to be a super beautiful girl warrior … And I want to be a person who is full of energy, strategizing, and winning a battle from a thousand miles away! You have your dreams, and I have mine too! I've said it before, I want to be your strongest support! I'm not just saying it! "
"Sigh, Liu, I'm a little touched by you. If I were a girl, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to resist marrying you! "Shan Gu looked at Liu Zhiyuan.
"Get lost. I only want to touch someone's heart and beg for her forgiveness." Liu Zhiyuan chuckled.
"How do I know if you've really been bribed?" Ji Chae Yi had already forgiven Liu Zhiyuan in her heart, but she didn't want to let him off so easily. "What if the other party introduces you to a super beautiful girl with a high status? What if the other party promises to let you worship them in the future …"
Liu Zhiyuan laughed. "Chae Yi, I just want to become the kind of big shot who can turn the oars into ashes with a smile. But the process must be clean! If I walk forward on my knees with a dark heart, I think this kind of trash won't have a chance to rise in his lifetime. Being low-key and being humble are two different things. "
Shirō Makino understood that Liu's EQ was indeed very high. Perhaps he could really succeed in this matter!
He didn't ask who his enemy was, not even a word. In fact, wasn't he expressing his attitude?
But as a spy … Sigh, how could it be so easy!
If King Qi's group was so easy to deal with, His Majesty the Emperor wouldn't have waited until today. The old man and Lin Caiwei wouldn't have wasted so many years.
However, the current Old Liu was probably not worthy of the King of Qi's attention. He was nothing more than an idle person.
So there was still room for maneuver.
"Alright, then I believe you. If you dare to betray my trust," Ji Chae Yi raised her head and looked at Liu Zhiyuan with reddened eyes, "I will feel that living in this world is meaningless."
Liu Zhiyuan stood up and knelt down on one knee in front of Ji Chae Yi.
"Oh, oh!" Shan Gu couldn't help but exclaim. He then whistled loudly.
Shirō Makino and Si Yin looked at him in "shock".
Ji Chae Yi's face instantly turned red. "You, what are you doing?"
"Chae Yi, I want to become a high and mighty big shot. I want to make a name for myself. Then, I will give all of these to you." Liu Zhiyuan's expression was serious and his face was also a little red. However, he still thickened his skin and took out a bouquet of flowers and the gift box containing the two Spiritual Beads from his space ring. "Although we are still young and any promise now is very light, I still want to tell you that in this lifetime, you are my one and only!"
Ji Chae Yi stood up and took the flowers with one hand. She pushed the gift box back with the other hand and pulled Liu Zhiyuan up. She said softly, "I understand. The road ahead is long and dangerous. I hope you can protect yourself. I'll accept the flowers. You can use the things in the gift box now. I'll watch you use them. "
"Damn, Liu, you're good. You came prepared! Not bad! "Shan Gu made a fuss at the side.
Si Yin glanced at him. "Do you think everyone is like you?"
"Si, Xiao, Yin!!!" Shan Gu finally couldn't take it anymore. He wanted to touch Si Yin's hair.
"You can't beat me." Si Yin had a tsundere look on her face.
