Study Monster Cultivation System -
Chapter 224 - 223 Queen&God
In the corridor, as they inadvertently discussed Ou Xingzhuo’s shortcomings, the atmosphere became increasingly awkward.
Li Zheng quickly cleared his throat to change the subject, "Speaking of which, who did you come with?"
Wu Shu replied with a bitter smile, "Ha, I guess I came by myself."
"Weird, none of you have friends?" Li Zheng shook his head helplessly.
"Yes, just you have friends..."
Wu Shu was about to mock Li Zheng for always being in cahoots with Shi Yang, assuming he definitely came with Shi Yang.
But then she thought, Li Zheng went to the men’s bathroom alone...
Obviously, his companion did not go to the men’s side.
Realizing this, Wu Shu’s chill ran down her spine, "Could it be... with that girl?"
"Which one?"
"Just... the really cute one..." Wu Shu swallowed and gestured with his hand, ruffling his hair, "The one we just brushed past, the one I really want to... you know..."
"Probably..." Li Zheng eyed Wu Shu up and down strangely, "Why do you all want to... ’handle’ Lin Yujing... I thought only girls in our class were that strange."
"She’s Lin Yujing?" Wu Shu exclaimed, "You’re the one with the problem, aren’t you? She’s so cute, it would be weird not wanting to... you know..."
"Forget it... let’s go back to talking about Ou Xingzhuo..."
Just then, a "hmm?" suddenly came.
Lin Yujing stood dumbfounded at the bathroom exit, looking at the two men in disbelief.
Shocked then angry, the word "scum" seemed to well up in her eyes.
Hitting on someone while just taking a pee?
Pretty impressive time management skills.
Li Zheng, being innocent, was not frightened by the accusation and introduced Wu Shu with a wave of his hand, "Come, come, this is Wu Shu, the only ’Queen’ I’ve told you about!"
Lin Yujing was taken aback, then slowly approached, also sizing up Wu Shu.
As it happened, Wu Shu was dressed today in a similar combo of leather jacket, jeans, and boots.
Standing next to Li Zheng, they surprisingly looked quite complementary.
Plus, Wu Shu naturally had this cool and distinguished face that, unless she heard some old joke, would even smile in a very cool manner.
Combined with her height advantage, she inevitably gave off a somewhat arrogant first impression.
Of course, none of this was Wu Shu’s intention. Upon seeing Lin Yujing, she stepped forward and greeted, "Lin! Yujing! I’ve heard so much about you!"
"Uh..." Lin Yujing responded reluctantly, her hand barely touched by Wu Shu’s, and Wu Shu’s aura made her a bit nervous, "I should be the one... admiring you."
"Hey, no need for us to stand on ceremony with each other," Wu Shu chuckled and took the opportunity to rub Lin Yujing’s arm while turning to Li Zheng, "Do you guys have plans later? How about we sit down together somewhere?"
"Yeah, great!" Li Zheng was delighted, "We’re planning to calculate the physical quantities in the movie and write our own ’Wandering Planet Project’."
Wu Shu jumped up in excitement upon hearing this, "Add the two of us in?"
"Sure!" Li Zheng, joyful, didn’t forget to say to Lin Yujing, "It’s just in time for the physics competition. We can dig out some stuff from the IPhO veteran."
Unexpectedly, Lin Yujing’s face was cold, and she just grunted.
Whether Li Zheng could tell or not, Wu Shu could always sense when she’s not welcome.
She thought about it and it made sense... If a couple came out on a date, it was rather abrupt of her to ask to join them.
Wu Shu quickly pretended to get her phone out, rubbed her head, and said, "Ah, something suddenly came up at home, maybe next time."
"Ah?" Li Zheng was instantly disappointed.
"Hmm! What a pity." Lin Yujing revived instantly.
Finally, Ou Xingzhuo also came out.
Seeing the chaotic scene, he didn’t know whether to come over or slip away.
"Yo, what a coincidence," Wu Shu hummed with a laugh as she greeted him.
"Ah, quite the coincidence," Ou Xingzhuo approached with a blushing face and from start to finish did not look at Lin Yujing as if she didn’t exist.
It had to be said, in some respects, he was much smarter than Li Zheng was.
Li Zheng, for all his thinking, wouldn’t have thought of that and immediately introduced Ou Xingzhuo and Lin Yujing to each other.
Even though neither of them had any interest in getting to know the other.
After all, in Li Zheng’s eyes, everyone was a competitive bunch who all loved physics so much, and since they were all likely to be schoolmates or alumni in the future, there was no reason not to forge such a good relationship.
Thus, the two greeted each other awkwardly and then nobody looked at the other.
After the necessary pleasantries were over, Wu Shu really couldn’t bear to stay any longer, hastily waved her hand and said, "Then, let’s get together next time. If Academic Fortune needs help, just find me anytime."
"Anytime?" Li Zheng immediately took out his cell phone to check the calendar, "How about tomorrow?"
Wu Shu, having turned halfway, had to twist back and say, "Tomorrow… should be okay…"
She forgot that the man opposite her was Li Zheng.
When it came to opportunities to study, he wouldn’t delay even a day…
"Okay, then let’s arrange it over WeChat." Li Zheng finally waved goodbye contentedly, "I’ll organize my questions, and it’ll take at most half a day of your time. I’ll treat you to something good."
"Ah… uh… okay…" Wu Shu turned again to leave.
"Um…" Lin Yujing suddenly stepped forward, her voice trembling a bit, "Or… let’s do it today."
"Hey, don’t be like that, she has things to do today," Li Zheng stepped forward to persuade.
Unlike Li Zheng, Wu Shu had a very clear view of the situation.
Clearly, Lin Yujing did not want to be alone with Li Zheng.
To tell the truth, Wu Shu herself did not really want to…
Since things had come to this, she had no choice but to take out her cell phone and check, "Ah, it turns out there’s nothing going on at home, so let’s do it today."
"Your family sure is unpredictable," Li Zheng said joyfully, then turned to Ou Xingzhuo, "Are you coming?"
"I…" Ou Xingzhuo subconsciously glanced at Wu Shu.
Wu Shu just returned a light laugh.
"Then I’ll come too…"
…
Fate brought them together outside a restroom.
Destiny, however, demanded they compete in a crisis.
Normally, having four people eat together would be the most awkward.
Luckily, Wu Shu was ever resourceful, first buying a series of stationery and papers, and then choosing McDonald’s as the spot for dinner, which allowed them to eat and calculate at the same time.
Not only that, but Wu Shu also delivered a continuous strategy at the table.
"It’s too chaotic for four people to calculate together." Munching on fries, Wu Shu said with squinted eyes, "Why not have a competition between the veterans and newbies of Academic Fortune, a space race?"
Upon hearing this, the eyes of the other three lit up.
In pairs, they would each tackle the "Wandering Planet Project," then come together for discussion.
It couldn’t have been more to their taste.
"Brilliant!" Li Zheng was the first to pound the table, "But, aren’t you and Xing Zhuo a little too strong?"
Wu Shu blew a strand of hair out of her face and laughed, "Be confident, I’ve almost forgotten everything."
"Ah?" Ou Xingzhuo said puzzledly, "Didn’t you just attend that person’s class at Ji University last week... Ouch, ouch, ouch!"
After pinching Ou Xingzhuo’s thigh hard, Wu Shu then turned and smiled, "What do you think, Yu Jing?"
"Hmm!" Lin Yujing took a ferocious bite of her Big Mac and chewed angrily.
Even though she didn’t say it outright.
Compared to the "Wandering Planet Project."
She cared more about the title of Physics Queen.
In her life, this proud woman before her was the second person worth taking seriously.
"OK, let’s all hold off on writing for now, eat first," Wu Shu lifted her arm to check her watch, "At 18:30 sharp, we start. Using necessary calculator apps on your phone is allowed."
"Then aren’t they bound to lose?" Ou Xingzhuo laughed, "I suggest doing the calculations by hand, they might stand a chance that way."
"Hmm…" Lin Yujing broke chicken wing bones with a bite.
All the wild friends Li Zheng knew outside were just plain annoying.
"Fine, fine, calculations by hand," Li Zheng raised his hand, "It’s just right, they don’t allow calculators in math competitions, it’ll be good practice for calculation skills."
"Good, that’s settled then," Wu Shu raised her hand, "You can look up known physical constants anytime on your phone, like the Earth’s mass, the equator’s circumference, the distance to the Sun, and so on, but you can’t search for calculated physical quantities, like the Earth’s rotational energy, the third cosmic velocity, Jupiter’s Roche limit, and the like."
"Great!" Li Zheng rapidly devoured the food within his reach, "Just hearing about these gets me pumped."
"So at last... are you willing to raise the stakes?" Wu Shu’s eyes narrowed.
"No betting, no betting." Li Zheng, frightened, hurriedly waved his hands, "I said no more gambling, if I gamble again, I’m a dog."
"Hmph!" Lin Yujing suddenly pressed down on Li Zheng’s arm, her eyes ferociously fixed on Wu Shu.
She didn’t know that everything at this moment was going according to Wu Shu’s plan.
How could a multi-stage plan have only two steps?
Seeing his plan was about to succeed, Wu Shu wasn’t in a hurry either, he interlaced his hands beneath his chin, speaking deliberately.
"The Queen of Physics, I’ve grown a bit tired of this title," Wu Shu said, looking straight at Lin Yujing, "If you can win, I don’t mind giving it up."
Exactly what she wanted!
However, Lin Yujing diverted her gaze from Wu Shu: "This... I don’t really want it either, but since you mentioned it, I’ll reluctantly agree..."
"Okay, then how about you?" Wu Shu’s gaze became even deeper, "Do you have something that might interest me, young lady?"
"Um..." Lin Yujing shuddered, suddenly feeling a bit scared.
Worthy of being an IPhO gold medalist, his presence alone was already so formidable.
Li Zheng, although unaware of what Lin Yujing could offer, knew what Wu Shu wanted.
At any cost, he couldn’t let her succeed!
"Don’t bet... really, you shouldn’t touch this matter..." Li Zheng looked at Wu Shu warily, whispering into Lin Yujing’s ear, "She... she’s lusting after your body, wants to grope you... she’s a pervert... don’t pay her any mind."
"Um..." Lin Yujing swallowed hard, "Zhang Xiaoke kind of person?"
"Not much different."
"What are you two whispering about..." Wu Shu sensed something off in their looks and immediately cursed, "All I wanted was to invite Lin Yujing to join our group, after all, she’s also a Dragon Ball contestant."
Upon hearing this, Lin Yujing first glared at Li Zheng: "You’re talking nonsense; she’s perfectly fine."
"It’s not that... Wu Shu is very scheming... I feel like it’s a multi-stage plan..." Li Zheng hurriedly raised his hand, making grabbing gestures, "She’s exactly like this, extremely perverted."
"Hey, are you the one with the problem..." Wu Shu looked innocently at Li Zheng, "I only know that seeing others through tinted glasses means they will see you in the same light."
"I’m not, I didn’t!" Li Zheng was even more innocent, "Well done, Wu Shu, I misread you."
"Don’t explain anymore." Ou Xingzhuo shook his head and sighed, "Your hand gestures just now have exposed everything."
"???" Li Zheng looked blankly at his hands, then turned to look at Lin Yujing, "You have to believe..."
"Loser~~" Although Lin Yujing was cursing, she wasn’t that angry, completely lacking the aggression she had when coveting the physics crown moments ago. She moved her chair as a gesture, pulling away a few centimeters from Li Zheng before nodding at Wu Shu, "Deal."
"Hehe." Wu Shu, with his plan a success, joyfully unwrapped his pollack burger.
With this, both sides entered the preparation stage for the upcoming battle.
Ou Xingzhuo whispered, "Are you very interested in Lin Yujing?"
Wu Shu asked back, puzzled, "Such a cute girl, aren’t you interested?"
"Not interested." Ou Xingzhuo was firm as iron.
"Not at all?"
"Not at all."
"Honestly, it’s fine," Wu Shu spoke softly, coaxing, "Longing for cuteness is human nature; you don’t have to be like that."
"It’s the truth, what I hate the most are cute girls," Ou Xingzhuo said, his eyes sharp and unyielding.
"Then let’s talk about your shoe polishing incident..."
"..."
On the other side, Li Zheng was also in full preparation mode.
Although the outcome wouldn’t affect him personally.
He very much didn’t want Lin Yujing to join the group.
Before he understood who Wu Shu was, he had hoped for it, but now he did not.
This woman has always been deceiving people with her cold beauty and the care of an elder sister, but in reality, she was even more sinister and perverted than imagined.
Lin Yujing certainly couldn’t outwit her.
To join the group so easily, wouldn’t that be like a lamb entering a tiger’s den?
"You, oh you, just because you won a small bet last time, how did you get addicted?" Li Zheng said through clenched teeth, "Even if you win, you only beat people like Zhang Xiaoke, didn’t you see who you’re up against this time? The more you gamble, the more you lose..."
"Last time it was a bet, but this time it’s not," Lin Yujing said as she quickly devoured her spicy wings, mumbling, "This time it’s real skill, real physics skill, and it’s in the direction I’m best at, there’s no way I could lose."
"You don’t understand Wu Shu at all..." Li Zheng wished he could crack open his skull and let Lin Yujing see Wu Shu’s Academic Fortune, which was as high as 48 points, even though Li Zheng had tried very hard, he could only reach 19 points.
In comparison, Shi Yang was at 27, Xu Youyou was at 39.
39 is already strong enough for a Nobel Prize...
Li Zheng had been quiet about it until now.
But as soon as he mentioned it, Lin Yujing suddenly changed her expression, and her whole demeanor sank.
And cooled down.
"You don’t understand me at all," Lin Yujing said coldly.
Before Li Zheng could react, something exploded in front of him—
[Academic Fortune detected.]
[Lin Yujing: 150]
[Learning capacity: 0.]
[Unable to learn...]
[Unable to learn...]
Li Zheng’s breath halted instantly, his mouth gradually dropping open.
It appeared...
Lin Yujing’s Academic Fortune...
It appeared at such a time...
150...
Unable to learn...
This certainly wasn’t a Queen...
It was a God.
Physics God...
What on earth is this...
What exactly is in her head?
Li Zheng restrained himself, with great restraint, he managed not to prostrate himself at Lin Yujing’s feet and worship her right there and then.
But soon, he felt indignant again.
Dammit, so much...
But unreachable...
There must be a way.
No matter what it takes.
Someday I will drain you dry!
"Five minutes left."
The reminder from Wu Shu broke Li Zheng’s long-term plans.
She swung her watch and smiled, "Anything else you want to say, or anything you don’t understand?"
Li Zheng narrowed his eyes and curved the corners of his lips.
His entire aura changed.
I was wrong, I shouldn’t have underestimated Lin Yujing.
"Heh, my modesty is not your capital to show off," Li Zheng blew a strand of hair from his forehead and smiled while lifting his eyebrows, "Queen, don’t bow your head, the crown will fall."
Wu Shu upon hearing this.
Collapsed instantly.
"You... haha... you... hahaha... how can you at this time... hahaha! So despicable hahaha!"
What to do when faced with a series of schemes?
Counter scheme with a scheme!
Am I, Li Zheng, not also a strategist?
