Chapter 259: Chapter 259: This is a Female Classmate with a Story (Extra for Alliance Leader Sun Shining for Nine Days)

Although this year’s competition had 120 teams, each team had only about a dozen members including players, substitutes, team leaders, and logistics.

The Network Information Security Technology Competition was just a niche event. Although it carried significant prestige, far fewer people followed it compared to electronic sports; it was only hot within a relatively small circle.

The schedule was sent to each participating team via email a few days ago.

World championship rules were less chaotic than domestic events in Huaxia, with 128 teams randomly divided into four groups—A, B, C, and D. Each group engaged in pairwise battles, leaving the top four teams for the finals to determine the champion and runner-up.

Winners advanced, losers were eliminated. There was no judgment on fairness; sometimes luck was part of skill. Meeting a strong team means accepting bad luck—that was just the nature of the competition.

...

After the team events, an individual ranking competition would commence! Of course, this ranking was limited to college students. The genius named Fei Ke’er ranked first in the world and unquestionably topped the college student rankings!

“Old Fang, we know our own strength. Without you, our school might not even make it to the top ten out of over a hundred teams, but this year, our goal is the championship!”

“Relax, guys. Same as always, you three just lay back your chairs and wait for an easy win!” Experience determined everything, and in Fang Jueyu’s eyes, this competition was nothing more than a bunch of babies doing arithmetic, with him—a PhD in Applied Mathematics—joining in.

“You, this guy, it feels satisfying to hear that, but why does it make me feel kind of uncomfortable?” The three knew what type of person Fang Jueyu was; he was just being boastful and cheeky, without targeting anyone specifically, merely looking down on other teams.

Despite that, Lu Chao and the others focused wholeheartedly on preparing for the individual matches, knowing they would have little opportunity in team matches, thus saving time to improve their condition.

Accidentally making it into the rankings could be bragging rights for years to come!

“Everyone, come over quickly. The organizers have sent the results of the random grouping to me!” Zhuo Shangke interrupted their chat.

“Last year’s top four were the United States, Japan, Germany, and England. The United States landed in Group A, Germany in Group B, and we are in Group C with Japan and England!” Zhuo Shangke announced.

“Oh? Interesting, huh? So we have to knock out two of last year’s top four before the semifinals?” Xie Yuzhi said, full of fighting spirit.

“Hahaha, I don’t care about other countries, but in the match against Japan, we won’t let them score at all!”

“Old Fang, didn’t know you were a hothead too! But I like it!” Lu Chao grinned mischievously.

The four exchanged glances, somehow reaching a tacit agreement!

“Do what you like, but remember to show some mercy. We don’t want to affect international relations!” Zhuo Shangke didn’t care, saying, “If you’re acting, make it convincing; don’t pull a stunt like that Great Demon King from the ping pong team!”

“Understood, Teacher Zhuo. We’ll go easy on them!”

…

After a day’s break, the competition officially kicked off on the morning of the third day, following tradition, with an enthusiastic speech from the host.

Fang Jueyu had no patience to listen to his long-winded talk, his eyes scanning the area, finally landing on the lineup of the United States team.

Among them, he noticed an extraordinarily different girl. She was slightly slender, yet her features were exceptionally refined, as if a character out of an anime, but it was her long snow-white hair that was most eye-catching.

“Her brain quantum wave activity is nearly at the level of an S-class superpower user. No wonder she easily holds the world’s top position.”

“Old Fang, that’s Fei Ke’er. Don’t be fooled by her youthful and harmless appearance. During the matches, she unleashes code that could blow your mind with the violence of her attacks!” Lu Chao whispered to Fang Jueyu.

Just then, Fei Ke’er seemed to sense his gaze, suddenly turning her head to look at them.

Lu Chao and the others quickly averted their gaze because Fei Ke’er’s gaze was so cold it felt like plunging into an ice cellar.

Yet Fang Jueyu boldly met her gaze, staring unwaveringly into her eyes.

“Not bad. She managed to discover some ways to use her spiritual power on her own. If no one taught her, her talent is truly remarkable.”

A hint of surprise flashed in Fei Ke’er’s eyes. No ordinary person had ever maintained eye contact with her for more than three seconds. This black-haired, black-eyed Asian boy seemed unusual.

“Could he be like her?” Fei Ke’er mumbled to herself.

“So, Old Fang, were you intimidated by that regal gaze?” Lu Chao joked with a cheeky grin.

“Not really, though there seemed to be something in her eyes.”

“Eye crust?” Chen Feng threw out an uninspired joke.

“She’s a girl with a story.”

“Yikes! So edgy!”

“C’mon, we’re busy with our studies, no time for that!”

“Honestly, are you taken by her looks? Don’t worry, we’ll be sure to tell your girlfriend!”

The three started teasing Fang Jueyu simultaneously.

Fang Jueyu wasn’t spouting nonsense. Behind Fei Ke’er’s gaze, he sensed a sadness or even despair, though he had no clue about its source.

Wasn’t such a champion living a carefree life under the spotlight?

“Well, I’ll find out sooner or later.” Fang Jueyu averted his gaze because the competition was about to begin!

The broadcast announced, “Will the Huaxia Team and Belgium Team participants please take their seats in Section 15!”

“Good luck, guys!” Zhuo Shangke cheered them on.

“Teacher Zhuo, don’t waste your time here. You should use this opportunity to travel for a few days. By the time you come back, we should have pretty much brought the championship trophy back!” Fang Jueyu said.

“Uh…” Zhuo Shangke was speechless. Would he die if he lowered his tone a bit?

“The four Belgium team members took their seats, warming up with joint exercises for the final preparation!” Every competition area had a passionate narrator, all students from the linguistics or broadcasting department of Nanyang Technological University.

“First, let me introduce the Belgium team players. Their captain, Bolman, has been competing for three years now, a seasoned veteran…”

…

“Next, let me introduce the Huaxia Team players. Their captain is…”

“Wait, what are the Huaxia Team players doing? Aren’t they going to warm up?”

“Heavens, three of the players have reclined their chairs and are lying down. Are they planning to sleep here?”

“They even brought sleep masks! They’re actually beginning to sleep. Is the Huaxia Team planning to go against four alone?”

…

“Tsk, getting scared over such a small scene?”

“Yeah, haven’t they seen Jiangnan University’s team play in domestic matches?”

“Ugh, another bloody massacre!”

“Hope the dean takes it easy, don’t make them lose too terribly. If the match ends too fast, those of us who flew in from afar would have wasted our plane tickets!”
