Chapter 126: Chapter 125: League 11, the Villain Dies from Talking Too Much
After spending a peaceful night, Blue Planet’s Team One had already left early the next morning as the day broke.
Qu Tong’s gaze swept lightly over Song Ke, gesturing towards the direction where Lan Xingye and his team had left.
It wasn’t that she wanted to do something in particular, but only in that direction were there Star Beasts, as the surrounding areas had been almost completely cleared by other teams.
On the fourth day, as the competition area shrank, the battle for Star Beast points became fierce, and the chance of encountering other teams increased significantly.
The elimination between teams also began, and if they encountered teams from their own school, it wasn’t too bad—they usually wouldn’t fight in the first round and might even look out for each other.
If they encountered a team from another school, then they usually wouldn’t show any mercy.
However, Qu Tong took her team to avoid several teams on the road, and after killing a third-level Star Beast, she proceeded towards a fourth-level Star Beast.
There was another team not far from the Star Beast; Qu Tong had detected them earlier, but that team had yet to move towards the Star Beast.
Qu Tong guessed that the team had either not discovered the Star Beast or lacked the capability to defeat it.
The fourth-level Star Beast also offered quite a few points, and Qu Tong wasn’t planning on letting it go, leading her people over to it.
As Xu An’s group dealt with the Star Beast, Qu Tong was also keeping an eye on the situation of the other team.
After three days of practical combat experience, cooperating against a fourth-level Star Beast wasn’t a problem at all. However, halfway through the battle with the Star Beast, the other team made a move, and their target was precisely their side.
Qu Tong’s brow furrowed, but she didn’t act rashly.
Xu An and the others were busy fighting the Star Beast, and they didn’t have time to pay attention to their surroundings.
It was only when the people got close enough that Qu Tong saw clearly who was approaching.
Unluckily, it was Qu Wanwan’s team, with three S-rank teammates in Qu Wanwan’s team, the rest being A-rank.
"Little sister, it’s you guys," Qu Wanwan called out with an exaggeratedly shrill voice.
Compared to Qu Wanwan’s indecisiveness, the rest of her teammates were more direct.
Following the order of a male leader, the group charged directly towards the Star Beast.
"Little sister, this is really awkward, but we’ve been eyeing this Star Beast for quite a while, though we just killed a fourth-level Star Beast, so we could only wait for your help."
Qu Tong’s expression darkened slightly, her gaze coldly fixed on Qu Wanwan, "Cousin, have you ever heard a saying?"
"What?"
"Villains die from talking too much."
The next second, along with a faint gunshot, white smoke billowed from Qu Wanwan’s chest.
Qu Wanwan’s complexion turned instantly sallow, and before she could even speak, she was knocked unconscious by a palm strike from Qu Tong.
Viewers who saw this scene started sending a barrage of comments:
[One word, awesome!]
[Well said, villains die from talking too much.]
[An A-rank babbling away only to be ambushed by an F-rank, laughing my head off.]
[Suddenly, I feel like the Princess Consort is delightfully wicked, I love it.]
[That elimination was so frustrating.]
[And their teammates are busy fighting for the Star Beast, haven’t even noticed, hahaha, I’m dying of laughter.]
[Serves them right for trying to profit from the chaos.]
[It’s called strategy, totally normal.]
[Then the Princess Consort taking them by surprise is also very normal.]
[Exactly, exactly.]
The live stream’s audience, munching on melons, grew larger and more eager to see what other impressive moves Qu Tong had up her sleeve.
After dealing with Qu Wanwan, Qu Tong shouted to Song Ke and the others, "Everyone, fall back and don’t get hurt."
Although Song Ke and his team were puzzled, they reflexively obeyed Qu Tong’s command and moved aside.
Fei Wenxing and Cheng Yao also retreated to Qu Tong’s side, their eyes filled with reluctance.
Qu Tong gestured to them, and they gathered around as she handed out a bottle of Energy Liquid to each of them.
As the other group thought they had given up and willingly let go of the prize, they happily picked up what was left behind.
However, just as they had cut the throat of the Star Beast and before they could celebrate, several gunshots rang out.
Four people, including one S-rank, had white smoke billowing from their chests.
While they were still in a daze, a clear and melodious female voice called out, "Attack!"
Only then did everyone react and began to retaliate in a flustered manner.
Fei Wenxing didn’t forget to shout to those who had been eliminated, "Those who have been eliminated can’t attack those who haven’t. Otherwise, your points will be reset to zero, and you will be penalized."
The few who had just raised their hands could only stand aside unwillingly, cursing under their breath.
Qu Wanwan’s team, left with five people including two S-rank individuals, were already low on spiritual power and had exerted themselves just moments ago; Song Ke took on one, while Xu An held another at bay.
After Song Ke took care of their team leader, he turned around to help Xu An.
Fei Wenxing and Cheng Yao effortlessly dealt with the other two and went to assist He Zhou.
Fei Wenxing, standing on the last person with one foot, laughed wildly, "Go ahead, try to snatch it now. Are you comfortable now? Got ourselves 200 points back, not too bad a loss."
Cheng Yao also spoke with smug pride, "At least we earned back 200 points, not too shabby after all."
The others erupted in curses.
Fei Wenxing and Cheng Yao, undaunted, not only held their ground two against seven but also knocked out two more.
Qu Tong found this utterly speechless.
Not long after, a trainer arrived in a flying vehicle to take the eliminated people away.
Unexpectedly, the trainer was Han Song. Because Qu Tong and her team had killed more Star Beasts, he exchanged their Space Buttons for new ones.
Before leaving, Han Song encouraged Qu Tong, "Student Qu Tong, well done, keep up the good work!"
Qu Tong revealed a sweet smile, "Thank you, Trainer Han."
After Han Song took the people away, Cheng Yao, still with an air of eagerness, walked over to Qu Tong to heap praises on her.
"Sister Tong, you are truly brilliant and valiant, truly worthy of being my idol’s wife."
Fei Wenxing, curious, came over and said, "Sister Tong, was it War God Your Highness who personally taught you that exquisite marksmanship? Damn accurate indeed."
With four shots fired, all four individuals showing their badges were hit.
Qu Tong’s mouth twitched—couldn’t it be her own skill that was impressive?
Nevertheless, she nonchalantly nodded in agreement as if to say yes, yes, you’re right.
Then, the two began praising Si Yuting, with Song Ke and Rong Yueqing joining in the admiration while the usually silent Xu An and He Zhou both nodded in agreement.
Watching this scene through the screen, Si Yuting: "..."
After the group had finished their praises, Song Ke finally asked the key question, "Qu Tong, the Energy Liquid you gave us earlier, which brand is it from?"
Song Ke looked at Qu Tong with eager eyes, but Qu Tong just smiled mysteriously, "It’s a secret."
Alright, Song Ke was not an inconsiderate person; he managed to suppress his curiosity, waiting for the day when Qu Tong would be willing to share.
The curious Fei Wenxing and Cheng Yao, now completely obedient to Qu Tong, saw that she did not want to talk and also zipped their lips.
They did not harbor any resentment for losing 500 points, as they knew if they hadn’t taken the Energy Liquid, given their previous condition, they would not have stood a chance against the other side, and might even have ended up severely injured.
