Tastes much better than his own grilling.
Su Xiaocai said expressionlessly, "These coaches are really boring, and you’re boring too."
Hu Ping shrugged playfully, "They’re not boring. Coaches usually require previous achievements, either top five mercenaries in the Ten Stars System or retired commanders; they must have both brains and strength."
Ji Li patted her shoulder, "You don’t have anything, so naturally, they want to test you."
It’s best if students take the lead.
The coaches don’t know about the Insect Man Warrior thing, they just feel like it’s hearsay and not real.
Su Xiaocai took a big bite of the grilled squid; it was salty, fragrant, and a bit fishy. How come it’s so delicious!
"You’re just gloating over others’ misfortunes."
Recently, Ji Li often came by, not to feed the turtles, but to help her manage the lab.
Su Xiaocai had insider information and was likely to leave for a while, so she needed someone trustworthy to look after it.
Whether to leave or not, it depends on what reward Admiral Bai offers.
It’s estimated to be something irresistible, so she’s preparing in advance.
...
She used to entertain others, but now Su Xiaocai has become the one being entertained.
On her first day, Su Xiaocai will participate in ten consecutive matches, conveniently on Saturday and Sunday.
She doesn’t fuss over timing and will start at the earliest at ten in the morning.
Before the competition, there is an activity, which is the official interview by reporters.
Only reporters from reputable news agencies can participate.
Finally being able to legitimately enter the New World to interview contestants is exciting for the reporters.
Top 100 contestants will go on stage today to collectively answer reporters’ questions.
Those participating in friendship matches are interviewed on the other side of the venue.
The venue is huge, and with over a thousand people, it doesn’t feel crowded.
In the New World, any kind of venue can be built overnight.
The venue is decorated simply and elegantly; that’s the awesome part of the New World.
Inside the venue, there’s an inexplicable lively vibe.
Many contestants are frantic and exuding dominance on the stage.
But when a reporter’s microphone is shoved in front of them, they all become socially anxious.
Out of over a thousand reporters, one hundred are assigned to interview one person each.
The goal is to ensure that no contestant feels neglected.
The rest find their preferred subjects to interview.
Captain Yun Ji and Ji Heng are the most popular, while that little crafty Hu Ping also attracts many reporters.
Wu Feiyang squeezed beside Hu Ping, pushing all questions to him to answer, resembling an outgoing monkey among his peers with all sorts of gestures.
In front of reporters, he spoke much more cautiously, creating a sense of contrast.
Amusing the audience in front of their screens.
Hu Ping knows how to liven up the atmosphere, making him a relaxed subject for reporters.
"How do you feel about entering the second round of the solo competition?"
"Thanking my parents, thanking Coach Su, thanking everyone. Thoughts? I’ve gained more fans and feel my charm has increased. I never thought you’d like this style, so I’ll offer more classic scenes for you." Hu Ping blew a kiss to the camera.
"Even a shameless person gets eaten up; you all have unique tastes."
The reporter was at a loss, suddenly wanting to walk away for some reason.
The scrolling comments were full of laughter, with all ages enjoying Hu Ping’s relatable nature.
Especially when he squints and smiles, almond-shaped eyes glistening, thick lashes creating an eyeliner effect, giving a naturally mischievous charm.
Comments continuously calling him "husband."
In contrast, Ji Heng’s side was much more serious.
Ji Heng’s responses were very standard, and when asked about personal issues like a broken engagement, whether he regretted the engagement, or his views on Xue Huiyi currently being detained.
He replied, "These have nothing to do with the competition or me personally, so there’s no need to mention them. If you ask again, I won’t answer any more questions from you."
Xue Huiyi is the past.
During the interview, as long as the focus is on himself, anything mentioning others is just making fun of him.
Afterward, reporters interviewing Ji Heng consciously avoided mentioning Xue Huiyi, asking if he’s confident about reaching the finals.
"I believe every contestant hopes to reach the finals, and I am no different. I’ll cheer myself on for the finals."
Reporter: "Are you dissatisfied with your current ranking, and where do you think your skill can rank you in the finals?"
"The current ranking doesn’t represent ability. I have confidence in my abilities, and as for the final ranking, I’ll just do my best."
Ji Heng’s answers were proper and orderly, not falling into any traps.
Yet he is a hot topic, and reporters can’t give up on interviewing him.
The more it is so, the more they want to find a flaw in him, leading to Ji Heng being questioned for a full half hour.
Some reporters, unable to crack the tough-nut Ji Heng, proactively left to interview those signing up to challenge Su Xiaocai.
