Chapter 648: Chapter 648: Even Wild Boars Make Way!
Jiang Li also casually picked up a tree branch and then directly faced Pei Ye.
"Thank you for accommodating me," she said before assuming an aggressive stance.
Pei Ye was somewhat astonished.
His ancestors were swordsmen, and his great-great-grandfather had even been a renowned master of martial arts, widely known throughout the land; his family possessed countless secret manuals of sword techniques.
Although his swordsmanship was not yet of the highest caliber, he rarely met anyone who could pose a challenge.
This was also why, during his time abroad, mercenaries reacted to him as if they had come face to face with the King of Hell.
The swordsmanship of Hua Country is profound and encompasses both hardness and softness. How could it be withstood by mere fancy but ineffective moves?
It was for this reason that, from just one posture Jiang Li took, he recognized that she had solid foundational skills.
Now, he dared not to treat her as an ordinary person any longer and immediately became serious.
"Thank you for accommodating," he replied.
Behind him, Zhao Lang’s fingertips lightly plucked the strings, and the merry tune suddenly transformed into a vigorous and martial melody.
[Wow, isn’t that "Hero"? The Crown Prince can even play this?!]
[Well, he is the Crown Prince. Of course, he’s going to know more than the average person. The teachers he must’ve had are probably those that TV stations can’t even hire.]
[Gu Yu really has some skills. "Hero" is hard to play, let alone on an improvised, irregular instrument, and yet he nails the notes so accurately. It’s terrifyingly impressive.]
As the rhythm picked up, their movements became more intense and sharp.
It looked less like they were performing a sword dance and more like they were competing in a martial contest.
The spectacle left the others watching in stunned silence.
"Damn, if I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, I would’ve thought we were shooting a TV show!"
"Is Jiang Li that amazing? She actually knows how to wield a sword?" Shang Shuyue began to question her own life.
Why then couldn’t she beat her back in high school?
Was she holding back all this time?!
She knew it. Jiang Li had set her sights on her all along!
Yu Li also continuously exclaimed in amazement, "The captain is truly talented and versatile. To have her on this show and aim for first place really belittles her."
Jiang Cheng, on the other hand, watched with a shudder after shudder.
As he suspected, the female devil had indeed shown mercy to him.
From now on, he knew he had to be even more cautious!
As the setting sun bled red, Jiang Li’s fluttering black hair mingled with the branch in her hand. Had it not been for the modern equipment surrounding her, her silhouette really resembled that of a cold-blooded female assassin who killed without blinking an eye.
Her hair was dark as ink, her lips were red as cherry blossoms, yet the intimidating aura she emitted was in no way inferior to Pei Ye across from her.
[Damn, Jiang Li really knows how to handle a sword. That’s badass!]
[Huh? Huh? Huh? I’m dumbfounded by these moves. Are these actually possible for a person to do?]
[If this wasn’t a live variety show, I would’ve thought they used stunt doubles.]
[Sss, as someone passionate about martial arts, Pei Ye’s moves resemble those of a certain martial arts faction... Could he be from that lineage? But with Jiang Li’s... I really can’t tell.]
[No way, are these two actually competing in a martial contest? This is just a program performance!] ƒreewebɳovel.com
Jiang Li and Brother Pei successfully took the show to a level it was never meant to be.
However, just when the audience thought they were about to start fighting, their moves suddenly softened. They no longer seemed like rivals at daggers drawn, but rather, like kindred spirits fighting side by side.
Sharp viewers instantly recognized that it was Zhao Lang who intentionally slowed down the pace, transforming the deadly atmosphere into one of high spirits.
Zhao Lang: I’m really afraid these two will actually start fighting! In the blink of an eye, there goes the bodyguard, and there goes the wife!
The intense situation, coupled with the show nearing its end, brought the live broadcast’s popularity to its peak.
This must be the moment with the highest popularity value since the start of Wilderness Survival, with total online viewers reaching over ten million—an unprecedented number!
The assistant director, sitting in the control room and watching the soaring ratings, grinned from ear to ear.
His bonus for this year should be secure; he might even earn enough to cover his expenses for a lifetime!
However, the staff working overtime beside him had no choice but to interrupt the assistant director’s sweet daydreams as they took off their headphones.
"Director, I just noticed something’s not quite right."
The assistant director, who was abruptly splashed with cold water, frowned tightly, "What’s wrong? Where’s the problem? Don’t make trouble out of nothing!"
"It’s not like that." The staff member crumpled their face and pointed at their laptop, "These surveillance cameras and video cameras were all functioning well this afternoon, but just now, they suddenly started having poor signal reception. If it were just one, it would be fine, but I just did a count—there’s at least twenty-three of them, and they’re all near the seaside."
The assistant director leaned in to take a look, disdainfully saying, "Haven’t those cameras hardly been used before? It must be that the signals deteriorated over time. Didn’t a batch get damaged during the downpour before? Why are you so anxious?"
"But they didn’t have signal issues last time, and it’s so concentrated this time, it feels like..."
"Have you been watching too many disaster movies? Stop imagining things. Today is the last day of the live broadcast. If they’re broken, they’re broken. Do you really think we should call someone to fix them at this hour?"
"Shouldn’t we report it to Director He? Didn’t he say to report anything unusual to him immediately?"
The assistant director, who hadn’t even swallowed his tea, spat it out in annoyance, "Should we really bother that sir over such a trivial matter? Do you not want to work anymore? If you’re idle, then come and help me keep an eye on the cameras focused on the island’s people. The broken ones couldn’t even catch a fly, why do you care so much?"
The young man who was thoroughly scolded could only shrink his head and switch the screen.
The real-time footage he switched away from continued to display a flickering of snow.
Yet a few minutes later, a pair of eerie green eyes suddenly flashed across the screen and just as quickly disappeared.
...
By the seaside.
The sword dance show put on by Jiang Li and Pei Ye greatly entertained everyone; Jiang Yan simply sold the metal stand and swapped it for a few bottles of alcohol.
Perhaps because everyone was aware they’d soon be parting ways, they drank with gusto—Jiang Cheng, who had just come of age, was also coaxed by Jiang Yan into drinking quite a bit.
Within a short while, everyone was more or less drunk.
Jiang Cheng even excitedly tossed aside his crutches, pretending to throw himself into the sea, but fortunately, Pei Ye was quick to act and fished him back.
"Young Master Jiang is drunk. I’ll take him back first."
Jiang Li glanced at the heavy night and said, "It’s our last night, let’s not go back to the cabins. Just pitch a tent here and rough it out for a bit."
"I agree!" Bai Lu clapped her hands excitedly, her little face flushing red, looking just like a big red apple.
The bullet comments were scornful: "When have you ever disagreed with Jiang Li?!"
Fortunately, Zhao Lang and the others were still relatively sober. They quickly set up three tents, leaving the audience in awe.
"Wow, they set up three tents in just a few minutes."
"If these three had been on the same team from the start, would there even be anything for Team A to do?"
"Forget Team A, they could just claim kingship on the island. Even the wild boars would have to make way!"
