Two Good Teammates

Since he dared to bully Yan Wuyue, Zhou Mingrui was determined to let him experience fear and terror!

Xiao Shengyun didn’t get up from the ground, not because he had been knocked unconscious. It was because he had given up on fighting.

Sure enough, after the referee went over to check, Xiao Shengyun got up and admitted defeat.

As he watched Xiao Shengyun leave, Zhou Mingrui snorted indifferently, “If this wasn’t a friendly match, I would have driven this guy crazy!”

!!

“Alright, don’t be so hostile.” Yan Wuyue patted Zhou Mingrui on the shoulder. “You’ve worked hard.”

“It’s nothing,” Zhou Mingrui smiled faintly as he put on his long cloak again.

After confirming that Xiao Shengyun had admitted defeat, the referee went up the stage and announced the victory of Yan Wuyue’s group.

No one was surprised. With Yan Wuyue’s talent, it was already certain that she would be the champion of the individual category. She just had to deal with the different levels of trouble that her opponents could cause her.

After going through a series of procedures, Yan Wuyue and Zhou Mingrui finally left the stage and headed to the dormitory.

“Alright, everyone. The team competition will begin the day after tomorrow. Please don’t be discouraged and rest well during this time. At the same time, reflect about your battle, and your strengths and weaknesses.”

“You still have a chance in the upcoming team competition, so prepare to perform your best then.”

After the dean’s speech, the individual competition finally came to an end.

The crowd, still enthralled by the previous battles, reluctantly got up to leave. many of them were slightly disappointed that Zhou Mingrui had cast his domain during the last moments of the battle, completely blocking the entire process.

From Xiao Shengyun’s dejected demeanor afterwards, they could only guess that he must have been defeated mercilessly in that domain.

…..

After returning to the dormitory, both of them sat on the sofa. Zhou Mingrui took a big stretch and complained, “This game was so tiring. I have to have a good sleep.”

Yan Wuyue rolled her eyes. This guy had only made a move twice while she basically dealt with the rest. How could he have the nerve to say that?

“By the way, since those guys saw our battle, they won’t actually come and harass us, right?” Zhou Mingrui suddenly asked.

“No, no matter how eager they are, they won’t disturb us at this time. This is the rule set by the Academy.” Yan Wuyue walked into the kitchen and took out the ingredients for dinner from the refrigerator.

“Hey, are you going to cook? I guess I’ll sleep after eating then.” Zhou Mingrui saw what she was doing.

Yan Wuyue shook her head and didn’t say anything. When two people lived together, one of them would definitely have to do more. She has already accepted that that person would be her.

Lying on the sofa, Zhou Mingrui hummed a little tune.

“This song is pretty good, but why haven’t I heard it before?” Yan Wuyue listened and asked curiously.

“I created it myself,” Zhou Mingrui chuckled.

“No way. You don’t have the talent to do that,” Yan Wuyue retorted.

“You don’t believe me?” Zhou Mingrui then began to hum another tune.

After listening to a few songs, Yan Wuyue finally believed that Zhou Mingrui had composed them himself. After all, it could be a coincidence for her to not recognize a couple, but she couldn’t recognize seven or eight songs in a row.

Yan Wuyue was very impressed. All the songs had such pleasant melodies.

“Alright, I believe you,” Yan Wuyue said with a smile.

“That’s more like it,” Zhou Mingrui laughed shamelessly.

He was singing a song from the other world. Of course no one in this world could recognize it. It was not wrong to claim that it was his own song if no one knew, right?

Just like that, one hummed while the other cooked. The two of them somehow complemented each other.

“The team competition starts in two days. Don’t be annoyed at me for nagging, but they will probably announce our other two teammates by tomorrow. You must try your best to get along with them.”

“I don’t want to lose the team competition. Although we are strong enough to take on three opponents, that person won’t be easily impressed.”

Yan Wuyue reminded Zhou Mingrui as she put some food into his bowl.

“Alright, alright, I understand. You don’t have to nag anymore. As long as they don’t cross my line, I won’t start trouble.”

Zhou Mingrui then put down his bowl. “Don’t be too fixated on this. The team competition is important, but there’s also no evidence that that person from the Research Institute will recruit you just because you won.”

Yan Wuyue frowned slightly. “You’re right. In my previous life, the only person who was accepted didn’t even enter top three in the individual and team competitions.”

“Now that you’ve said that, we shouldn’t be so worried about the team competition. We don’t really have to humor our team members then,” Zhou Mingrui came to a realization.

“But just in case, we should still aim for the championship. Right?” Yan Wuyue concluded.

“No problem,” said Zhou Mingrui as he continued eating.

The two of them devoured the food at the dinner table. Then, after cleaning up, Zhou Mingrui immediately went to take a shower.

A homebody to begin with, he was too lazy to go out the entire of the next day. Instead, he stayed in his dormitory and took a long nap.

Yan Wuyue didn’t say anything about this and just went to train for the afternoon.

The two of them then began to prepare for the next day.

Soon, information about their other two teammates was released.

Yan Wuyue, who saw the message, had a strange expression on her face. Zhou Mingrui, who happened to be walking down to join her for dinner, saw her expression.

“What’s wrong?” he asked.

“It’s about our teammates tomorrow.” Yan Wuyue put down her phone and said after letting out a long sigh.

“What, are they the kind of teammates that can’t be helped?” Zhou Mingrui asked curiously.

“No, it’s the opposite. They are both pretty okay.” Yan Wuyue shook her head.

“Then what’s with your expression? Do we know them?” Zhou Mingrui asked as he came to her side.

“You’re right. We can all be considered ‘acquaintances’,” Yan Wuyue said as she rubbed her temples.

“Oh, who are they? Tell me, let me see if I know them,” Zhou Mingrui hurriedly asked. His interest was already piqued from Yan Wuyue’s reaction.

“Zhao Anqi and Xiao Shengyun,” Yan Wuyue announced.

“…” Zhou Mingrui stopped in his tracks with a perplexed expression.

He was indeed very familiar with these two teammates. One was a woman who tried to seduce him. Previously, if Yan Wuyue had returned any later, his wall of defense probably would have been broken down by her.

The other had just been ruthlessly tortured by him during a battle and became completely demoralized. He even had to be carried off the stage.

“No wonder. This is indeed a little troublesome.” Zhou Mingrui could not help but rub his temples as he grumbled.

“Tsk, weren’t you very interested just now? Why are you having a headache now? ” Yan Wuyue snorted.
