" Foodie! Foodie!"
After this battle, the situation completely shifted in Mask Squad.
At this moment, the Prosperous Age Women's Team had only one member at the peak of the Peak Second Tier who had not yet entered the arena.
But could that Peak Second Tier possibly defeat such a ferocious, Foodie?
This question popped into the minds of all the viewers at the same time.
"We concede defeat," Jiang Yingying said on behalf of the team members.
Upon hearing this, Li Xiang smiled, raised the microphone again, and announced, "Then the duel between the Mask Squad and the Prosperous Age Women's Team has come to an end. Congratulations to the Mask Squad for winning this 1v1 gauntlet battle and successfully advancing to the top 32 of the competition!"
After the points-based tournament, each match will be an elimination round, with the winner advancing and the loser being eliminated.
Xu Jintang easily jumped off the ring and returned to the contestants' waiting area.
"Squad leader, you all went up, but I didn't!" Song Tianqi complained with resentment in his eyes.
Xu Jintang patted his shoulder lightly, "We were originally planning to let you go, but the other side just conceded defeat."
Song Tianqi's expression grew even more resentful. "Fine."
At this moment, several members of the Prosperous Age Women's Team from the opposite side walked over.
The female teammate who had accidentally injured Yan Yuting spoke apologetically, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hurt your teammate. Which medical center is she at now? Is it convenient for me to go and see her?"
"No need. Injuries are common in competitions, and it has nothing to do with you," Xu Jintang refused.
Their identities must be kept secret; if outsiders follow them to the medical center, it could inevitably lead to unnecessary trouble.
Upon hearing this, the other party did not insist further.
After the elimination rounds concluded, Xu Jintang and his two companions, along with the entire Prosperous Age Women's Team, walked out of the player tunnel together.
The air was filled with cheers from fans on both sides. " Mask Squad! Mask Squad!"
After the contestant left the field, Zhuang Silin in the stands breathed a sigh of relief.
She got up, straightened her coat, and left discreetly through the stands exit.
Inside the emergency room of the Federation Medical Center.
Yan Yuting's entire arm was cut open by a sharp blade, leaving it a bloody mess.
The medical staff glanced at it, calmly raised their hands, and activated their healing abilities.
A healing white light emanated from her palm, gently covering Yan Yuting's injured arm.
Yan Yuting looked at the wound that was slowly healing with surprise.
In just a few seconds, the severely cut wound healed completely, and the skin on the entire arm became smooth and fair again.
Xue Zhongqi asked curiously, "How does it feel?"
Yan Yuting raised her arm, examined it carefully, and then replied, "It doesn't hurt at all anymore."
The medical staff advised, "You're lucky this time; the meridians in your arm weren't cut. If the meridians had been damaged, the wound would have been much harder to treat."
Yan Yuting looked up and asked, "Will this injury have any long-term effects?"
Medical staff. "No, but if you come back with a more serious injury next time, you might have long-term effects. You're so young, don't take your body lightly."
After giving their instructions, the medical staff turned and left the ward.
Just then, Xu Jintang had just arrived, walked in from outside. "How did it go?"
Yan Yuting and Xue Zhongqi turned around at the same time.
Xue Zhongqi quickly replied, "The doctor said it's nothing serious."
Yan Yuting held up her arm, "Look, there's not a trace of my wound left."
Song Tianqi walked over to Yan Yuting in surprise and examined her closely. "The recovery effect is quite remarkable."
Yan Yuting nodded, "I heard that the medical staff who just treated me is a Peak Seventh Tier ability user. They said that if she cultivates her ability to a higher level in the future, she could even bring the dead back to life."
Xu Jintang leaned against the wall. "No matter what, I should do less of this kind of thing in the future."
Song Tianqi nodded seriously, "Yes, yes, losing a game isn't a big deal, but getting injured is a big deal."
As the group was chatting, Wu Jinghong, who had just finished paying the bill, returned.
With a stern face, she saw Xu Jintang and the others approaching and said harshly, "We're having you participate in this competition to develop your abilities, not to have you risk your lives just to win a match."
Xu Jintang quickly took the lead in admitting his mistake. "Teacher, we were wrong."
Yan Yuting, Song Tianqi, and the others quickly admitted their mistake. "We definitely won't do it again next time!"
Wu Jinghong shook her head helplessly, "You guys..." After a long sigh, she continued, "Anyway, I can't do anything with you, but your Teacher Zhuang isn't as easy to talk to as I am."
No sooner had she finished speaking than Zhuang Silin, who had just arrived, walked in from outside the door.
Her expression was grim. "You lot, do you all disregard your own health?"
Xu Jintang cleared his throat and lowered his head even further.
Yan Yuting and the others all behaved in the same way.
Seeing that they remained silent, Zhuang Silin snorted coldly, "Before the next elimination round, each of you five will submit a self-criticism to me!"
"Yes!" Xu Jintang replied immediately.
She's good at writing self-criticisms.
Song Tianqi stood ramrod straight, his hands neatly placed at his sides. "Yes!"
The remaining three, including Yan Yuting, quickly replied, "Yes!"
After leaving the medical center, Yan Yuting had already returned to her usual lively self.
" Teacher Zhuang didn't seem to ask us to write a specific word count for our self-criticisms. How many words do you plan to write?"
Song Tianqi held up one finger, "Based on my experience, it needs to be at least a thousand words; otherwise, it's easy to get it sent back for rewriting."
Xu Jintang nodded in agreement. "Indeed."
Xue Zhongqi glanced at the two of them hesitantly, "You two seem quite experienced."
At this, Song Tianqi immediately smiled nonchalantly, flicking a stray strand of hair from his forehead, "Hey, writing self-criticisms is something the class monitor and I are experts at."
Jiang Shiyi looked up at him. "Would you mind writing another self-criticism?"
"No problem," Song Tianqi immediately patted his chest to assure him.
Upon hearing this, Xue Zhongqi and Yan Yuting immediately looked over, but before they could speak, Song Tianqi interrupted them, "I can't write that much. One more copy is my limit."
Xue Zhongqi gave a heavy, cold snort, took out his fan, and shook it. "I'll write it myself."
Yan Yuting also pursed her lips, crossing her arms in front of her, "I'll write it myself too."
After the final round of the Ability User Competition, which saw 32 contestants advance, the event's popularity surged again on the Star Network.
The elimination match video between the Mask Squad and the Prosperous Age Women's Team has gone viral online.
[Holy crap! The Jade Fox is too fierce; it actually took the supernatural attack with its bare hands.]
[ That Ruthless Killer is pretty impressive too. He single-handedly took down two Third Tier, and before leaving the stage, he exhausted most of Jiang Yingying's mental energy. Plus, he didn't use any special abilities at all throughout the entire ordeal.]
[This Mask Squad is really something. Their captain was able to break through the Domain of Mirror Blades with his bare hands; that's unbelievable.]
The video replay of Xu Jintang breaking out of the Domain of Mirror Blades has been edited into a highlight reel and uploaded to the Star Network.
In less than half a day, the video garnered over a million views, becoming the most popular video of the day.
The comments section was filled with casual viewers praising it as awesome.
The sun gradually sets, and night falls.
Suddenly discovering something fun, Yan Yuting excitedly ran downstairs, "Class monitor! Sister Shiyi! Do you two want to go shopping?"
Xu Jintang and Jiang Shiyi are training on the second floor.
The two stopped what they were doing, turned to look at Yan Yuting, and said in unison, "What are you going shopping for?"
Yan Yuting walked over, brought up the communicator's screen, and smiled, "The underground black market is holding a large market event in the next couple of days. They say there will be lots of strange and unusual things for sale there. Would you like to go check it out?"
Xu Jintang fell into deep thought.
She had heard of the underground black market in the Federation Star Region. This underground black market was like a large second-hand market, but the range of items that could be traded was much wider than in a second-hand market.
Moreover, it is said that the organizers will arrange some small games every time the market event is held, and players can win different levels of prizes by playing the games.
"Sure, there are still several days until the next knockout round anyway." Xu Jintang nodded happily.
Jiang Shiyi thought for a moment and nodded in agreement, "Yes, I'd like to go take a look too."
Chapter 88
Originally, the three girls planned to go to the underground black market together.
Eventually, the news reached Xue Zhongqi and Song Tianqi.
Song Tianqi, his face dark, emphasized, "I want to go to the underground black market too."
Xue Zhongqi sat on the sofa, looking indignant. "What do you mean? You three went shopping while leaving the other two at home to write self-criticisms, is that it? No way, absolutely not!"
"Exactly! I even have to write two self-criticisms, and they didn't even take me shopping!" Song Tianqi protested loudly.
Seeing that the two were very insistent, Xu Jintang had no choice but to relent. "Alright, alright, I'll take you two."
Song Tianqi calmed down and immediately scratched his head with a smile, "That's good. I'll continue writing my self-criticism. Remember to call me when you go out tomorrow."
Yan Yuting gave him an OK sign.
The next morning, Xu Jintang's alarm clock rang on time.
She got out of bed, still half asleep, and turned off the alarm.
After a while, she pushed open the door and went downstairs. Usually, no one gets up at this time.
As a result, when I went downstairs today, Song Tianqi and Xue Zhongqi, the two night owls who usually stay up the latest, were both sitting obediently at the dining table eating breakfast.
Xu Jintang looked at them with surprise, "Up so early?"
"Yes!" Song Tianqi nodded repeatedly, "I was afraid you'd forget to call us."
At that moment, Yan Yuting and Jiang Shiyi also came out of the room.
The five people sat around the long dining table and ate breakfast in a quiet atmosphere.
"Buzzing..."
A vibration sounded.
