While having dinner at Li Beihai's house, Li's mother and two aunts kept putting food into Bai Xiaowen's bowl, acting as warmly as if they were a family.

Fortunately, the bodies of awakened beings are different from ordinary people. They can eat a whole sheep in one meal without feeling stuffed, and even if they don't eat for ten meals... well, they will still feel hungry, but it won't affect their mobility.

With such a good appetite, Bai Xiaowen finally finished a huge bowl of food piled high under the warm gazes of everyone else... There was no way around it, everyone else had already finished eating, and her three future mothers-in-law kept piling food on her plate and urging her to eat more.

They were all offering to feed Bai Xiaowen the dishes they had cooked, as if they were having a competition to see whose dish was better, relentlessly shoveling food into her bowl. It wouldn't be right for Bai Xiaowen to refuse any of them...

After they had eaten and drunk their fill, Li Beihai invited Bai Xiaowen to stay, and Bai Xiaowen accepted.

Just as I was playing with the Juvenile Eagle, Yi-Yi Yi and Er-Er, my cell phone suddenly rang.

"It was Teacher Yan calling," Li Shuyi said softly, grabbing the phone that was constantly ringing on the table and glancing at the caller ID.

"Hang up... never mind, I'll answer it anyway." Bai Xiaowen sighed and took the phone.

The call has ended.

"What's wrong?" Li Shuyi asked.

"The University Team is having a meeting... I guess they're discussing tactics for their next opponent," Bai Xiaowen said. He initially wanted to hang up; a call from Yan Xiaoxin at this hour was never good news. However, considering he was the captain and had a responsibility, Bai Xiaowen had no choice but to answer.

"Your meeting is way too late," Li Beihai remarked irresponsibly.

"It's a bit late, but the University Team usually has meetings around this time. Xiao Wen, do you remember last time when Chen Guowei and Liu Fei broke the toilet? Wasn't that at night?" Li Shuyi said.

Bai Xiaowen couldn't help but laugh when she thought about it.

Speaking of which, Bai Xiaowen should thank Liu Fei. If it weren't for his efforts in informing the Jingwu Guild, it would be uncertain whether Han Xu would have been able to sign with the Super God Guild.

"Where has Liu Fei gone? It seems like we haven't seen him in ages."

"He's probably busy looking for a guild. He's a graduate, and since he's not playing in CUAA anymore, he definitely needs to figure out his own future..." Li Shuyi guessed.

"Liu Fei? The Liu Fei you're talking about, is he an assassin, Elite Class? Was he originally a member of the Titan Guild?" Li Beihai.

"Yes, Dad, you know him?" Li Shuyi asked curiously.

"I didn't know at first, but a few days ago, a small section of the local newspaper broke the news that Liu Fei, a newcomer from the former Titan Guild, had signed with the Jingwu Guild ..." Li Beihai said, "As you know, I've been following every move of this guild."

"Liu Fei was originally a member of the Giant God's faction, but he went to Jingwu Team?" Bai Xiaowen stroked his chin. "They say people strive for higher positions, and water flows downhill. Why is Liu Fei only going downhill?"

"Because you were going uphill, and you pushed a big rock down. Liu Fei didn't want to get crushed, so he had to run downhill." Miss Li Ingenuity quick-witted and often made surprising remarks.

"The Titan Guild and the Jingwu Guild have always been on good terms, this is just normal personnel movement, nothing to worry about." Li Beihai wasn't particularly surprised.

"Maybe... it's not quite normal. But it doesn't matter, he's just a weakling, low character and low potential, going to Jingwu Team would be a waste of resources," Bai Xiaowen was too lazy to waste brain cells on Liu Fei, grabbed the car keys with a clatter, "Uncle, let's go."

"Drive slowly," Li Beihai nodded.

University Team training base.

Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi were the last to arrive. In the lounge, all the starters and substitutes were already in place.

"Thank you for rushing back." Yan Xiaoxin nodded and smiled at Bai Xiaowen. "Alright, now that the captain is here, let's start our discussion. What do you all want to say about our next opponent?"

Jinghai University's opponent in the quarterfinals is Taiwan University, or Taiwan University for short.

"Taiwan University ... they're not bad. In the last round, they faced Jiangnan University and even eliminated Qi Ruifeng," Chen Guowei said with an air of superiority. However, his next words quickly revealed his comedic self-cultivation. "Hmph, but meeting us is their misfortune... Taiwan University can only stop at the quarterfinals."

Xiang Hui gave Chen Guowei a disdainful look, then said, "Taiwan University is acting aggressively this time, it has a bit of a revenge feel to it... Just look at their pre-match interviews, they're practically treating us like mortal enemies..."

"Is that so?" Bai Xiaowen feigned ignorance.

Xiang Hui grunted twice and then fell silent.

Actually, the feud with Taiwan University started with Bai Xiaowen.

In the Jiajing Plane World, Bai Xiaowen killed Zhao Zhixiong... Zhao was a rising star in the Taiwan Base City and a second-year student at Taiwan University.

Of course, Zhao Zhixiong is a key player on the Taiwan University Team and is definitely going to take over the captain's armband as the next captain!

Furthermore, Zhao Zhixiong gets along well with the other members of the Taiwan University Team and is very popular— the Zhao Family's education of their children is quite effective, as can be seen from Zhao Zhixiong's behavior in the Spirit Realm. His speech and mannerisms are quite pleasant, and if he hadn't suddenly turned against Bai Xiaowen, he could have indeed developed a good relationship with her...

The public only knows that the Zhao Family launched a revenge killing against Bai Xiaowen. As for Bai Xiaowen killing Zhao Zhixiong, ordinary people are unaware of this. This matter is only spread within the awakened community.

It's clear that the Awakened members of the Taiwan University Team were aware of this. Their hostility towards Jinghai University is therefore understandable.

"The Taiwan University Team originally had the strongest lineup in this year's CUAA, and even declared during the qualifiers that they would defeat Yanda University and win the championship..." Yan Xiaoxin said, "However, due to the death of the Hero Class Zhao Zhixiong in the Spirit Realm, their strongest lineup was just a flash in the pan. Of course, even so, we cannot underestimate them; Taiwan University is still not a weak team."

Zhao Zhixiong was a freshman last year and had only recently awakened his Hero Class, so he was unable to participate in the previous CUAA.

After more than a year of hard work, Zhao Zhixiong rose to level 5, becoming a top-tier member of the CUAA! With such a member joining, the Taiwan University team, which was already a top-eight contender, was even stronger, and their boast of defeating Yanda University was not an exaggeration. Tragically, this tiger's wings were broken before they could even spread.

"Who are the top students at Taiwan University? Are there any Hero Class?" Bai Xiaowen asked.

"There are no Hero Class, but there are two ' Rare Elite ' classes, known as the Twin Stars of Taiwan University! Both of them are already Advanced Awakened," Yan Xiaoxin said slowly. "From the moment they became Awakeners, they have been fixed teammates, venturing into the Spirit Realm together, so their teamwork is extremely high! When the two of them work together, their combat power completely surpasses that of Hero Class, which is why they have been able to defeat their enemies time and time again."
