Xu Jiujiu: Boo-hoo-hoo~ I'll never be able to get married!

"Your Excellency Xing, I would be grateful for your guidance."

Xu Jiujiu was the first to activate Star's Protection. She didn't know Star's strength; no one had ever seen it, but... her gaze swept over the lance in front of Star. The lance was almost as tall as a person, and its heavy body gave her a great sense of security.

It'll probably be either an offensive or defensive type.

Xingbao: Do you know what "all-around" means?

It seems they're positioning themselves as a defensive character.

Xingbao slowly extended his right hand toward the Flaming Lance, while his left hand reached slightly backward.

Watch me trick her with a sweet talk.

Xu Jiujiu also became nervous. She was a girl who could follow Wei Lin and whose status was obviously not low. She wondered what kind of attack she would use.

Just as Xing's right hand covered the Flaming Lance, his left hand moved even faster. A pink quill pen glided lightly through the air, and a pink domain instantly spread across the entire arena.

Xu Jiujiu:??! My body... I can't move.

"Hehehe! Look at this little girl, whose is she?"

Xingbao wore a perverted expression, hands on his hips, shaking his head every few steps, walking with an extremely arrogant air.

When Xingbao to Xu Jiujiu's side, Xu Jiujiu still had that wary expression.

Xingbao Xu Jiujiu pulled Xu Jiujiu close to her, and she could even feel Xing's breath on her face.

Xu Jiujiu: Ahhhhh! So close!!!!

Unfortunately, she's currently frozen in time and can't do anything.

"That wary little expression doesn't look good."

After saying that, Xingbao revealed a wicked smile and stretched out his Evil little hand with a cacophony of "cacophony."

Xu Jiujiu: You... you stay away!

On the preparation bench, the Star Luo Team could only watch helplessly as Xingbao rubbed their captain's face with her wicked little hands, making her face into all sorts of expressions, like a doll being posed in all sorts of strange positions.

What's even more outrageous is that she... she... she even took photos to document it!

"Waaaaah~ Our captain's not clean anymore~~~"

"What exactly is that strange domain? Captain, hold on a little longer, let me analyze it a bit more."

"As expected of the captain, he can remain unfazed even when being treated like a doll."

This is why Xu Jiujiu know what his teammates were saying; otherwise, he would definitely have given them a good whack on the head.

Xu Jiujiu: Waaaaah~ Sister Xing! Please stop playing with my face, okay?! No! My body can't take it either!

Xingbao: Hehehe!

On the dais.

Wei Lin couldn't bear to watch any longer. To toy with someone's princess in front of the entire empire? Xing, you're really something else! But... are you sure you won't get hunted down for this?

Look around at the other teams. Their gazes towards the Star Luo Empire have changed. They seem to think something's missing from their heads. Oh, they're missing a bright green hat!

Look, their referee hasn't announced the result yet. Could it be... that the people of the Star Luo Empire have this kind of peculiar habit?

(Citizens of the Star Luo Empire:... Say no more, it's either you or me today!!!)

In the stands, Xu Jiujiu still maintained that unchanging expression... Yeah, right!

Waaaaaah! How long are you going to keep messing with me?! You pervert! You scoundrel! You creep! Don't you have any sense of boundaries?!

Waaaaaah~~~ Why did I have to go first?! (ΩДΩ)(ΩДΩ)(ΩДΩ)

She was mortified. The other woman had the air of a mature, sophisticated woman, but she started touching her inappropriately right away. And to make matters worse, she took pictures! Someone save me! Referee! Help me!

Referee: I want to help too! But I can't move!

He felt like an incompetent husband, watching his country's princess being ruthlessly exploited by the opponents during the competition he was hosting. He felt a heavy weight on his head.

"Xing, stop playing around. This is a competition; lots of people are watching."

Wei Lin couldn't stand it anymore. "You can play around with it for now, but why are you still not letting go? Can't you see that the people from the Star Luo Empire are starting to have bloodshot eyes and are panting heavily? It's a typical Down syndrome attack."

If you keep trying, the other party might actually dare to fight you to the death.

"Tch~ fine."

Xingbao were full of "love," and her Xu Jiujiu face felt so soft to the touch; it was truly a pity to part with her.

Xu Jiujiu: Demon! This is a demon! Waaaaah~ I'm not pure anymore~ I'll never get married~ Waaaaah~~~ ╥╥.

The pink aura had just dissipated when Xu Jiujiu Xu Jiujiu distanced herself from Xing, straightening her disheveled clothes. A wave of shyness washed over her, and she almost fainted.

"You... you... you... bad guy! I give up!"

Fearing that his opponent would "control" him again, Xu Jiujiu quickly conceded defeat.

Xu Jiujiu was about to take a step, her body slumped forward.

It's over.

She was even ready to close her eyes, but... the imagined collision didn't happen; instead, she found herself in a warm embrace.

Xu Jiujiu, she slightly opened her eyes and saw Xingbao's righteous face.

"Princess Jiujiu, how could you be so careless? Your legs are so weak when you walk!"

To show off, Xingbao even Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew in his mouth.

(Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew: She still hasn't let me go! You devil! You can pick up girls all you want! Why are you sucking my mouth?!)

Xu Jiujiu's face turned completely red, and her CPU crashed due to overload. ⁄(⁄⁄•⁄ω⁄•⁄⁄)⁄.

The two faced each other for quite a while.

Wei Lin glanced furtively at the people from the Star Luo Empire.

Well, their faces are all red now, and their bodies are hot. They must be shy. I didn't expect the people of the Star Luo Empire to have the characteristics of a mimosa plant.

"Um... please put me down."

Even Xu Jiujiu didn't realize that her tone was like that of a spoiled little wife.

"Snap!"

Huang Heyun even chewed a piece off the railing of the preparation bench, and his teammates were not faring much better.

Most importantly... those damned bastards from the Sun Moon Empire somehow bought a whole truckload of green hats at an exorbitant price and sent them over, and... they even had a green cow drawn on them! This is simply outrageous! This is intolerable! They even wanted to blow up the people from the Sun Moon Empire on the spot.

If it weren't for the teacher in charge stopping them, the two groups would have really fought each other!

In a dark corner, a woman dressed in black pushed up her glasses and smiled as she counted the banknotes in her hand.

"I'm rich! I'm rich! So much ore raw material! Enough to pay off a fraction of my debt to Gugor! That bastard! Who doubles their interest every second?!"

Just as she was fantasizing about her freedom after paying off her debts, two figures dressed in mecha lifted her up.

Huh?

"Teacher Xuzhao, now is not the time for you to run off for fresh air. His Highness has instructed that you must work for a full 24 hours, 0 minutes, 00...1 second every day."

Xuzhao:... No! I don't want to go back!

Unfortunately, she had no face to lose and could only be carried back to continue drawing.

It took her Xu Jiujiu to recover before she felt some strength in her legs. She didn't dare look in Xingbao's direction at all.

Why... do I suddenly think she's... kind of cool?

No, no, I can't let Xu Jiujiu succumb to her! She's a demon! A pervert! A lecher! You can't just give in to her like this! But... she's so beautiful.

"I... I'll go down first."

For Xu Jiujiu, she didn't even dare to look up. She could only walk off the competition stage with her weak legs. Even as she left, Xingbao called out.

Princess Jiujiu, let's keep in touch!

Xu Jiujiu Xu Jiujiu stopped, almost falling face-first into the mud again, but everyone could see that Xu Jiujiu's pace quickened.

Huang Tianhe had practically chewed up all the railings on the Star Luo Team's preparation bench. He was filled with hatred! How could he be so incompetent!

"Captain, how... are you?"

He shook his head Xu Jiujiu.

"I... I'm going to take a shower first. Be careful."

After saying that, she stepped down from the preparation table. She needed to take a good shower; she was completely soaked.

I don't know when I'll see her again.

Xu Jiujiu:!!! No? How could I have such a thought? It must be a misperception, a misperception.

On the Sun Moon Team's side, the team leader was still looking for the mysterious person who had sold hats earlier.

"That's strange, where did that merchant go? Did he run out of stock? What a pity, I still have some savings."

(Wei Lin: Goodness, you really want to fight them to the death.)
