Chapter 204: Team Name

Bai Yun initially pondered whether to go solo or team up with Xia Chaoyi to form a two-person squad.

She waited until she and Xia Chaoyi confirmed they were teaming up.

She then slapped her forehead, thinking that since they were already forming a team, they might as well make it a four-person squad.

She then called out to Leng Yueyou and Mo Song.

The two knew they couldn't break into Mu Youyu's team; hearing the idea, they almost instantly agreed without hesitation.

Meanwhile, in another corner of the classroom, a few classmates who rarely interacted with Mu Youyu and the others exchanged glances.

The short-haired girl lowered her voice and said: "Those two teams have fierce momentum—one has Young Master Jiang, Sister Yu, Yu Shao, and Gu Shao; each one is someone to watch out for!"

She then looked at Bai Yun's group and said: "One group has the class monitor leading, with Young Master Xia, Leng Yueyou, and Mo Song also being strong opponents; should we also decide our direction early?"

Otherwise we'll end up left far behind.

"What's the rush?" the bespectacled boy said calmly, flipping through the Business Competition handbook he'd bought.

"The business world is unpredictable; starting fast doesn't guarantee final victory. Let them rush ahead—we'll observe first and decide later."

The short-haired girl pursed her lips and muttered: "You're just a coward!"

Although she said that, she pondered for a few seconds, then nodded in agreement: "But you also have a point—Sister Yu's team's strength is clear; if we go head‑to‑head, we surely can't win. We need to think of another track..."

The boy took off his glasses, put them down, scanned the classroom, paused, and added: "Actually, we don't necessarily have to beat them; after all, we're all in the same class. In the end, our real rivals are the people from Nan Feng."

The short-haired girl reacted: "Yeah, infighting is pointless; beating Nan Feng's Xi Shao crew is what really matters."

As she spoke, she turned her head toward Luo Yi, who was resting her chin and staring off into the distance, a smile forming on her face, and called out loudly: "Cutie Yi Yi, want to join our team and stir up some trouble?"

Hearing that, Luo Yi lifted her eyes, her long lashes fluttering slightly—she had obviously already figured out her plan for the Business Competition.

She succinctly uttered two words: "Sure."

By the second practical class, everyone was busy finalizing team details.

Only then did Mu Youyu realize the team still didn't have a name.

She picked up her pen, the tip pausing on the paper, turned her head, and locked eyes with Jiang Liangjin beside her.

She then looked toward Yu Ci and Gu Xingnan behind her and spoke first: "What do you think about the team name?"

No sooner had she finished speaking than Yu Ci shot up her hand, like an elementary‑school kid eager to answer, shouting: "Victory Team! So imposing—just hearing it you know we'll surely win the championship!"

Her loud voice drew sideways glances from several nearby people.

"Too vulgar." Jiang Liangjin didn't even lift an eyelid, bluntly rejecting it.

Xia Chaoyi, who hadn't yet moved toward the practical building, couldn't help but chuckle softly at the remark.

He turned his head, raised his chin at Yu Ci, and teased: "Yu Bro, to be honest, I had also thought of Victory Team at first!"

Noticing Bai Yun's gaze, he pondered a moment, then continued: "In the end, our class monitor felt the name sounded like a restaurant's—too tasty, other teams would 'eat' it, so we changed it."

Bai Yun: "Exactly!"

The bespectacled boy from Luo Yi's team also came over, pushed his glasses up, and added seriously: "Our team also thinks the name is not bad—just add a character and call it the Victory Team!"

Hearing that, Yu Ci quickly waved her hands: "Got it, got it—let's change it, change it; this name can't be duplicated."

Gu Xingnan twirled her pen on her fingertip, pondered briefly, and uttered two words: "Champion Team."

Simple yet inexplicably arrogant, it made several nearby classmates who pricked up their ears couldn't help but chuckle.

Jiang Liangjin: "No."

Gu Xingnan had already expected the veto, shrugged, said nothing more, turned to Yu Ci, and waited for her to keep proposing ideas.

Yu Ci scratched her head, rummaging through her thoughts.

From "Victory Team" to "Smooth Team" to "Gold Medal Team," she felt each fell short.

Suddenly his eyes lit up, as if he'd thought of a brilliant idea, he leaned toward Jiang Liangjin and said: "How about calling it Young Master Jiang's team? With the prestige of A Jin, just the mention would make the Nan Feng folks tremble!"

Jiang Liangjin finally lifted his gaze, gave him a cold sideways glance, and said: "... Get lost."

Yu Ci instantly shrank back, muttering: "Hard to please—this won't work, that won't work; why don't you suggest something nice?"

Mu Youyu watched the two go back and forth, unable to keep from curling the corners of her mouth.

She tapped her pen on the paper, a flash of inspiration struck, she lifted her gaze to the person beside her, a sly glint in her eyes, and said: "How about calling it the First Team?"

Upon hearing it, Jiang Liangjin hesitated not at all, a warm smile blossoming in his eyes, and said affectionately: "Nice—Youbao's choice is good; First Team taking first place, truly deserving of the name."

Yu Ci: "……" Alright, even her tone when speaking to her beloved is different now.

Gu Xingnan: "Isn't this pretty much the same as what I and A Ci were thinking?"

The Champion Team would take the championship.

Mu Youyu ignored their complaints and earnestly wrote the three characters "First Team" in the team name field.

She was about to put the registration form away when she heard Bai Yun's excited voice from nearby.

"Little Yu! We've decided on our team name—it's the Knowledge-Action Team!"

Bai Yun waved the registration form in her hand, hurried over, with Xia Chaoyi, Leng Yueyou, and Mo Song trailing behind, and said: "Knowledge united with action, practice yields true wisdom—what do you think?"

Mu Youyu rarely rejects her friends' ideas; she smiled and nodded: "Pretty good."

Just as she was about to say something, a familiar voice came from the doorway—low, steady, with a hint of respect: "Young Lady."

Mu Youyu instinctively turned her head and saw Song Ze Yi in a suit, holding a document bag.

He stood in the doorway, his gaze landing precisely on her.

Before she could rise, Song Ze Yi strode in with long steps.

Passing classmates instinctively quieted a little, their eyes filled with curiosity.

Mu Youyu gathered her things and said, surprised: "Xiao Yi, how'd you come? Didn't your brother come too?"

As she finished speaking, another figure stepped in from the doorway.

Mu Xin wore a light‑colored shirt, took a few strides, and came to her side.

He smiled, ruffled Mu Youyu's hair, his gaze falling on the registration form his sister hadn't yet put away, and raised an eyebrow: "Dear, still looking at this?"

Mu Youyu looked up in delight, her eyes full of excitement, "Yes, brother, how did you come?"

"I came to Lan Lin to discuss something."

Mu Xin said, turning his head to look at Song Zeyi, his tone returning to its usual calm, "Little Yi, go to Nan Feng."

Song Zeyi nodded in agreement, turned and left the classroom in a hurry.

Jiang Liangjin stood up, nodded at Mu Xin, and said, "Hello, Brother Xin."

The four-character address turned into three characters.

Gu Xingnan and Yu Ci realized that Mu Xin was actually younger than them, so they didn't call him brother, just smiled and nodded.

Mu Xin didn't respond, merely stopped beside his sister, his gaze falling on the team name on the sign-up sheet, "Team One? Who picked that?"

Too ordinary, huh?

Mu Youyu pursed her lips and smiled, "I picked it! How is it? Does it sound good?"

The words on Mu Xin's lips were swallowed again; he shifted the topic, his tone indulgent, "It sounds nice, dear, you have a talent for picking names—simple and easy to remember."

The people around had already seen Jiang Liangjin's double standards once, and unexpectedly they saw another sister complex.
