To be honest, Chloe really wanted Illusory Species to turn into Stygiomedusa Gigantea and play with her. After all, the jellyfish that swims in the deep sea is mysterious and beautiful, leaving an extremely profound impression on Chloe.
If possible, Chloe even wanted to take the Stygiomedusa Gigantea in the form of Illusory Species to study. She just didn't know if the internal structure would be the same as a real Stygiomedusa Gigantea after the external form was transformed into a jellyfish.
Chloe was lost in thought until Ren Yunying unilaterally cut off the communication. Only then did she come back to her senses.
After staring at the light screen for a while, Chloe sighed softly, "Alas, my former instructor always said I was her favorite student. Now, she still says she wants to abandon me, and doesn't even want to look at me a little longer..."
Before she could finish, Qin Huaibei interrupted her, "That's enough, stop talking nonsense."
He looked at the sky and said, "It's time to go back. I heard that the organizers want to hold a banquet tonight, and the main players from the four military academies will attend."
Upon hearing this, Daniel next to him made a "tsk" sound and said, "The organizers must be unhappy that we didn't make a big enough fool of ourselves, so they want me to sit at the same table and eat with those bastards. I'm afraid I'll be disgusted to the point of throwing up on them."
Chloe said, "I don't care who you throw up on, as long as it's not on me."
Daniel was shocked, "How could I ever throw up on you! Miss Chloe, you are our rich daddy!"
Besides, if he really did throw up, Anderson would probably rub him hard against the ground.
Just thinking about it made Daniel shudder.
Chloe glanced at him lightly, "Don't be vulgar."
"Let's go, back."
...
Since the organizers said they would host a banquet, then they really hosted one.
They were rich, and had just made a lot of money from Chloe recently, so hosting a lavish banquet was natural.
There were all kinds of large shrimps and fresh fish, with large portions and of fine workmanship. Even the appearance was of a level that could be used as artwork.
When Chloe and the others entered the scene, Ren Yunying and others from the military academies had arrived early.
Seeing the five of them swaggering in, Ren Yunying was annoyed for some reason.
Maybe because she had gotten used to being angry, she was a little irritated even though they hadn't done anything wrong.
She attributed this to the usual naughty behavior of these five people.
Chloe saw Ren Yunying sitting in front of the dining table with a gloomy expression from afar. Not knowing why, she hurried over and skillfully chose a position relatively far away from her, then smiled at her ingratiatingly.
Jokingly, of the five of them, she, Chloe, was the one who got hit by Ren Yunying the most, followed by Daniel. Even for her own physical health, she wouldn’t be silly enough to sit next to Ren Yunying.
What if something unexpected happened during the meal, and Ren Yunying secretly stomped on her under the table?
Although the possibility was low, it didn't mean it was zero.
Chloe raised her hand to pour herself a drink, and sipped it with the glass close to her lips. From the corner of her eye she saw Daniel brazenly sitting down next to Ren Yunying.
She then chuckled lowly and said,
"Shameless."
After she finished speaking, Chloe nudged Anderson next to her and lifted her head to say, "I want to eat fish."
Anderson lowered his eyes to look at her, hmm-ed, and began to pick fish bones for her.
The atmosphere at the banquet was still quite good. Chloe slowly ate a piece of fish, raised her eyes, and saw the person sitting opposite her--Fuen.
The two looked at each other for a moment, then Chloe indifferently shifted her gaze away.
She slowly forked the greens from her bowl into Anderson's.
This move was clearly seen by everyone present.
Everyone was used to it, except Fuen.
They had heard early on that royal family members of the Vampire Race would bring a personal attendant with them after entering the First Military Academy.
This attendant had always been obedient to the royal family of the Vampire Race. Judging from this, Anderson was playing such a role this time.
Fuen understood the reasoning, but he still couldn't accept it.
His long silver hair slipped down his chest. Fuen’s lips moved as if he was about to say something, when a peanut suddenly flew over from not far away.
He was a little surprised and looked over.
It turned out Katherine was sitting not far from him, her eyes cold as she glared at him warningly.
The two stared at each other for a long time before Fuen's lips curled into a mocking smile. He lowered his head and took a sip of his drink.
Katherine withdrew her gaze. Qin Huaibei next to her asked, "What just happened?"
"Nothing," Katherine said calmly as she forked some Brussels sprouts into her mouth.
Some things still needed to be thoroughly clarified with Fuen.
Everyone was extremely quiet during this banquet.
Until the leading teacher from the Brut Military Academy laughed and spoke up.
He looked at the position of the First Military Academy with a kindly gaze, then spoke to Ren Yunying appreciatively,
"Speaking of which, the relationship between your school’s main players this year is particularly harmonious."
Ren Yunying nodded slowly, "That’s true."
The Brut leading teacher laughed, "I actually just wanted to ask how you are able to set aside your differences and get along well when your races are all different?"
He narrowed his eyes slightly and sighed, "You know, the contradictions between just the Werewolf Race and the Vampire Race are enough. Do you still remember that thousands of years ago, the number of werewolves who died at the hands of vampires was in the hundreds and thousands?"
When this was said, the atmosphere of the banquet became stagnant.
Ren Yunying put down her cutlery and looked coldly at the Brut leading teacher.
How could she not understand the intention behind the Brut leading teacher's words?
The First Military Academy's momentum for winning the championship was now strong. They had no grievances between them, and had brought together the strengths of various races. Just in terms of strength, no one dared claim first place if the First Military Academy dared claim second.
Even on the Internet, the First Military Academy had the highest level of discussion among the public.
The Brut leading teacher's move was meant to sow discord.
The atmosphere at the scene was dead silent. The feud between the Werewolf Race and the Vampire Race was indisputable.
No one dared to speak up at this critical moment.
Until Chloe put down her cutlery.
The silver cutlery made a very faint crisp sound as it fell onto the porcelain plate.
The girl had an elegant smile. She tilted her head slightly and said,
"Teacher, it was something from thousands of years ago. Why are you bringing up such an old grudge to settle?"
"Thousands of years ago... Pfft, I don't even need to calculate. I wasn't even born back then. Since I didn't experience those things personally, when you mention them now, not only do I not feel anything, Daniel doesn’t either."
Chloe turned her head slightly, "Am I right?"
Daniel blinked, "You're right."
Then, driven by his extremely competitive spirit, he added, "But Teacher, it wasn't only werewolves who died at the hands of vampires back then. The number of vampires who died at the hands of our werewolves was also countless. What you said makes it sound like our werewolves were just punching bags."
Daniel was extremely serious and spoke righteously in a way that was strangely amusing.
Chloe helplessly put her palm on her forehead, "That's enough, and you're arguing again at a time like this."
Daniel said seriously, "Although I can't beat you, my ancestors must have been able to. Don't look down on us werewolves."
"Alright alright, I won't look down on you guys." Chloe casually coaxed him.
Daniel immediately saw through her perfunctory attitude. He was so angry that he simply moved his chair next to Chloe and started counting the heroic figures of the Werewolf Race off his fingers.
They chatted enthusiastically, not giving others any chance to interrupt.
Brut team leader teacher tried to speak up several times, but was impatiently interrupted by Daniel: "Can't you see we're talking? You don't have an ounce of tact."
Brut team leader teacher's face turned green.
He looked at Ren Yunying angrily.
Ren Yunying picked up her handkerchief and wiped her mouth, saying:
"I'm sorry, kids don't know any better, please don't take it to heart."
Although it sounded like an apology, Ren Yunying said it so lightly that anyone could see she didn't care at all.
Having been scolded by a junior, Brut team leader teacher was extremely frustrated. He felt all eyes on him during the meal, and finally couldn't stand it anymore and left the table angrily.
Seeing this, Daniel casually stopped the conversation and fist bumped with Chloe.
