Chapter 144: 144 Evil Transactions

Is there another way?

Ji You’s eyes lit up, but then she frowned: It didn’t seem right. Was there really a way to avoid punishment?

Seeing Ji You’s expression and reaction, Mu Jianling knew instantly. She raised her eyebrows and said indifferently, "What? If you’re unwilling, then just clean the training room for half a month."

The training room is so vast and extensive, and even though there’s automated cleaning throughout, students still need to inspect it once cleaning is done to make sure all equipment is in working order. So, it definitely takes up some time for the students on duty. In short, if they’re a bit off in their timing, they can forget about getting natural food in the cafeteria.

Such bitter tasks, who would want them?

Ji You quickly said, "Teacher, please tell me what the method is. You’re making me anxious by not mentioning it."

Mu Jianling glanced at her, suddenly raised her hand, pointing to one side, and said, "See that big butt over there? Go give it a kick."

Ji You: "..."

Mu Jianling raised her hand again, pointing to another side, "See those trembling legs over there? Go and give them a kick."

Ji You: "..."

Mu Jianling, expressionless, pointed to the right, "See that one lying on the ground pretending to be a corpse? Go punch him."

Ji You: "..."

"Your role is to see who’s slacking, who’s arrogant, who’s timid as a mouse, who... just go up and beat them hard," Mu Jianling raised her hand, about to continue, but Ji You quickly interrupted her, "Tea... Teacher, isn’t this a little inappropriate?"

Mu Jianling raised an eyebrow: "Hmm?"

Ji You, with a stiff face, squeezed out a smile and said, "This... this isn’t conducive to fostering unity, love, and mutual assistance among students."

Mommy~

Ji You only realized today that Teacher Mu Jianling’s heart was even darker than Principal Hong’s. While Principal Hong at least left her a way out by making her unpopular, Teacher Mu was straight up trying to get her killed.

This...

This...

This... Even with a dog’s courage, I can’t afford to offend all the students.

Mu Jianling: "Hmm? Not willing?"

Ji You, with a pained expression, "Tea... Teacher, could we possibly change the condition?"

Mu Jianling said, "There is no room for bargaining with me. You either choose to clean the training room for half a month, or you choose to make things difficult for your fellow students in the training room and disturb everyone."

Ji You: "..."

Mu Jianling said, "I’m giving you 10 seconds to choose; if you don’t decide within that time, you’ll get an extra month added to your cleaning duty."

Ji You: "..."

Ji You, on the verge of tears, quickly asked, "Teacher, if I sabotage my fellow students, who will be responsible for my safety?"

Mu Jianling said, "You’re on your own."

Ji You: "..."

That’s so irresponsible.

Absolutely—

This is worse than flaying someone.

But Mu Jianling clearly wasn’t planning to give Ji You much time to consider; she immediately started the countdown: "5—4—3—"

Ji You immediately said with righteous indignation, "Teacher, how can I refuse such a glorious task of urging classmates to progress? I am willing to sacrifice the small self for the greater self!"

Mu Jianling laughed and said, "Good child."

Ji You covered the corner of her mouth and whined, "Teacher Mu... is there any reward if I exceed the task? I deeply believe that having only punishment and no reward will completely dampen the students’ enthusiasm for training. Only with both rewards and punishments can students’ enthusiasm be mobilized."

Mu Jianling’s voice rose, "Oh?"

Ji You winked and said, "Like those sweet Candy Beans, they are a very good reward."

These things could make her Spiritual Silk obedient and well-behaved, truly good stuff. Such good things, of course, the more the better.

Mu Jianling glanced at her and said, "Alright, if you exceed the task, I’ll reward you with one."

Ji You immediately said loudly, "Don’t worry, I guarantee I’ll exceed the task."

In the large training room, in this quiet corner, teacher and student silently completed a wicked transaction, without attracting anyone’s attention.

Ji You logged back into the Small Mecha, and this time, she wasn’t thinking about how to squeeze her Spiritual Silk. Instead, she pondered how to complete the task given by Teacher Mu Jianling without making a sound.

Such suicidal behavior is not conducive to peace.

Ji You was not willing to accept this task at all, but compared to cleaning the training ground for a month or not being able to eat braised pork ribs for a month, she would rather choose to be killed by her classmates.

If she was going to do it, she might as well do it thoroughly. Ji You slowly walked up to a Mecha that had fallen to the ground and was struggling to get up. First, she pretended to casually pass by, and then as the driver was almost getting up after a lot of effort, she stepped on the driver’s ankle joint.

Crack—

Thud—

The Mecha that had barely gotten up fell down again in a mess, and the driver immediately cursed loudly:

"Damn!"

"Who’s the blind one who stepped on me just now?"

"I’m going to slaughter him!"

Ji You instantly dashed away, driving her Small Mecha at a high speed thanks to her fluent control over Spiritual Silk, like a gust of wind, leaving several steps behind and slipping next to another Heavy Armor as if nothing had happened.

This Heavy Armor, named Shouheng, differed slightly from Po Jun, as Po Jun was an offensive and defensive Mecha, mainly focusing on attacks, while Shouheng, although also Heavy Armor, sacrificed agility for enhanced defense, therefore mostly used for logistics and reserves.

Breaking through Shouheng’s defense was very difficult and required strong firepower.

Such a challenging Mecha, the pilot was Lance Yuri. Unlike others who were aggressive, Lance had a calmer personality; he didn’t like direct combat and preferred providing support to his teammates from the rear. Hence, after much deliberation, Lance chose Shouheng as his Mecha.

However—

Due to its huge size, Mecha Shouheng needed strong control power. Lance tried many times just to get Shouheng to stand up—its legs trembling slightly... Just as it looked unsteady, suddenly—

A Small Mecha darted out from a diagonal angle, bringing a strong gust of wind—Just as Lance sensed something was wrong and hurriedly tried to maintain the Mecha’s balance, this passing gust, as if cursed, flipped his Shouheng over—

Bang—

With a loud noise, the massive inertia made Lance dizzy, and he saw several figures flash before his eyes...

After struggling for a long time, Lance who had just gotten back up asked, "What happened?"

Ji You hid in a corner, gasping for breath. Just now, while running fast, she secretly kicked the calf of Shouheng, guessing that Lance definitely didn’t notice. This big guy’s Spiritual Silk Cleaning Rate probably wasn’t good, and he couldn’t fully resonate with the Mecha yet, so for the moment, she didn’t need to worry about Lance discovering her.

Who should she target next?

Ji You’s eyes darted around, and suddenly she set her sights on—
