Chapter 334: All the Good Cabbages Have Been Arched by Pigs
This is a carnival night for the Moon; they continue their hegemony over the Starship S Tournament, demonstrating the absolute dominance of Moon People in the Starship Department. Whether it is Tianxing or Galaxy, they all belong to the NUP.
The victory in the Starship S Tournament has also sent the morale of the Moon People to an unprecedented high, leading to even higher expectations for the larger and more influential Mecha S-Tournament. The God of War Maxis, the Heavenly King Fan Liweite, as well as the King of Supernovas Xilian, and others—this massive lineup is all for the sake of the NUP being able to complete its hegemony over these two events.
Of course, for Tianjing Martial Arts, the Starship S Tournament had little sense of participation, and the moment it ended, it meant the end of that chapter; everyone must continue to prepare for the S Tournament. With constant matches in the EMP, Ma Long and the others have a large number of matches and internal scrimmages every day. Under Kevin's suggestion, Li Hao also tried various positions, configuring several special lineups for Tianjing Martial Arts. Fortunately, Li Hao's versatility can still fully satisfy the team's requirements.
At Tianjing Martial Arts, everything now revolves around the team. The EMP official released news that excited all pilots and fans: this year, the EMP official still sincerely invited Arths as a guest. It was also an invitation last time, and there was actually some opposition back then. Although she is a highly popular idol, some picky mecha fans still felt Arths was too soft and not quite a fit for hot-blooded mecha. But now, there is only carnival; who else could be more suitable than the Queen?!
It is just that there has been no reply from Arths yet, and the EMP has already launched an official petition. At Arths' level, the Mecha S-Tournament does not hold much significance for her. After winning the championship in the S Tournament, Arths has already become a figure on another level. The petition is naturally very enthusiastic; fans all hope to see Arths' style again at the Mecha S-Tournament. If she could offer a "Triumph" once more, it would be perfect.
Arths' reply is that she is seriously considering it, and at the same time, she is creating a new song; she will not keep her fans waiting long.
Her agency released a new update on Arths: a beautiful silhouette of Arths composing a new piece. It is said to be inspired by a friend, composing music for a very good set of lyrics.
Whose lyrics could possibly move Arths?
After bombing the starship circle, she bombed the music circle all over again.
"Queen, you just happened to take the Starship S Tournament championship while composing music!"
"Another day of just making up the numbers in the human world; the only thing I have in common with Arths is that we are both humans."
"The Queen is so competitive that she has plunged both the starship and music worlds into panic."
"Recently, the contestants in these two circles have been trembling with fear, speaking with extreme caution."
It is undoubtedly a nationwide discussion. Galaxy Music Academy and Galaxy Interstellar Academy are of the same lineage; both top-tier academies are very disappointed. One lost a queen, and the other lost a champion. It feels like in their perfect world, the most important pearl is missing.
Meanwhile, A Youyou had already disguised herself, boarded a spacecraft, and arrived on Earth. Yes, she is just that willful; she used the "feint to the east and attack in the west" strategy to perfection.
Li Hao looked at A Youyou, who was rushing toward him, and his old face actually flushed red. For some reason, an old Tianjing saying came to mind: all the good cabbages have been arched by pigs...
The two hugged for a long time; if there weren't so many people, they probably would have kept hugging like that. Li Hao took out a bouquet of flowers, and A Youyou accepted it happily. Although she had had many, many flowers since she was a child, Li Hao's were different.
Seeing that A Youyou liked them, Li Hao felt relieved. After all, under the influence of Ma Laoshi, he always had to make some progress. Although he didn't know what to buy, buying a bouquet of flowers was never wrong.
A Youyou held Li Hao's arm, very, very lively and happy. Here on Earth, no one disturbed them, and she could be an ordinary person without worries. "Senior, do you have training today? Dao."
"The Queen has arrived, so naturally I have to ask for leave," Li Hao laughed.
A Youyou smiled slightly, "If you have training, I can accompany you. Auntie has arranged everything; I can rest for a few days, and it's just right to hide from interviews too."
Ever since winning the championship, the explosive influence was not something she hadn't anticipated, but she hadn't expected the effect to exceed her imagination. It was no longer just some partners; even the family side had caused a huge shock, including some family friends who came to stir things up. Because an idol like Arths was seen at that level as gradually moving away from the core, even if she was said to be the first in line, who knew if that would change? But once the Starship S Champion title came out, it immediately became different. Now, Arths' influence on the younger generation is off the charts. Even for the largest family, to display their influence, they need a leader to unleash this energy, and Arths is the one most capable of such strength. With her personal charm and influence, she could absolutely take the family a step further.
And so, naturally, people came to stir things up. There were some older ones who weren't usually very close, but at this time, they all came out to put on the airs of elders. Fortunately, with Su Yu there, A Youyou could just hide and find some peace. One cannot bluntly refuse, nor can one truly pay them any mind; handling such matters requires technique. What is more complicated than interpersonal relationships?
And upon arriving in Tianjing, A Youyou is just A Youyou. In front of Li Hao, she always feels that none of her auras are of any use, and this feeling is the most comfortable.
"Ah, is that okay?"
"Look, you lack sincerity; you gave up after just a little probing. Hmph, take me to the hotel first, then go back to the orphanage. I prepared gifts for the director and the children, and then I'll accompany you!"
Li Hao laughed like an idiot, then suddenly felt a bit strange, "How could Su Yu feel at ease letting you come? Isn't this a sheep entering a tiger's den?"
"We don't know who is the sheep and who is the tiger yet!" A Youyou said, unconvinced.
One really cannot talk about Tianjing people; just as she finished speaking, the Skycom rang. A Youyou opened the Skycom; it had to be a video call, and the one appearing was none other than Su Yu.
Su Yu looked at the two, extended her right index and middle fingers to point at her own eyes, then pointed at Li Hao, "I'm leaving A Youyou to you. I will be watching the whole time. Don't cause trouble. Why are you standing so close? Do you have gravity between you? Separate a bit!"
"Don't worry, Auntie, I will definitely take care of A Youyou!" Li Hao hurriedly promised.
Su Yu rolled her eyes; this guy was calling her that more and more smoothly, and she actually had no way to refute it.
Hanging up the Skycom, A Youyou stuck out her tongue, "I have to be on call 24 hours a day to answer the Skycom."
Li Hao was still very happy, grinning from ear to ear.
"Stop laughing, people will think you're an idiot," A Youyou couldn't help but pinch Li Hao.
"You should be happy when it's time to be happy. What did you bring?"
"Oh, I prepared a lot. Er Ya's, Pang Qiu's, this one is Sa Sa's. By the way, I also bought a little puppy so the children will have another playmate."
A Youyou listed them like she was counting her family treasures; these things had been prepared for a long time.
Sure enough, as soon as the little puppy appeared, it became the children's new favorite, and from then on, the rankings of Zuo Xiaotang and Li Hao dropped by another spot.
Everyone at Tianjing Martial Arts was training; the starship tournament gave everyone a great touch and motivation. The scale of the mecha tournament far exceeds that of the starship one; even with Arths' blessing, it cannot compare. The Mecha S-Tournament is a carnival for all of humanity, almost regardless of age. It is currently the largest and most popular event for humans. It can be said that in this competition, success and failure will be magnified; there are challenges, but also huge opportunities.
Ma Long and the others had just finished a scrimmage with the Cougar. Wuzang and Luo Bi fought very fiercely, and in the end, Luo Bi used the Ancient Combat Technique of the Americas to take down Wuzang. It is clear that Luo Bi and the others have evolved their combat methods, and their mecha operation is more detailed and powerful.
Wuzang's growth is also very fast; now he and Luo Bi have wins and losses. Everyone is holding their breath for this S Tournament. Tianjing people speak very modestly, but in their hearts, they are more arrogant than anyone else.
Of course, it seems one cannot say everyone, for example, someone has disappeared again.
"Where did the Team Leader go again?"
"He wouldn't still be delivering food, would he?"
"No, he wanted to, but I heard the boss forced him to take a vacation, telling him to come back after the tournament. I feel like the boss was scared by him," Zuo Xiaotang said.
Everyone laughed. Although they didn't know why Li Hao had such a hobby, the boss also felt quite strange—refusing an advertisement delivered to his door.
"Today is different; it's probably because A Youyou came," Ma Long said.
"Ah, A Youyou, why did she come?" Zhou Naiyi asked curiously.
"Sister Naiyi, they are in a relationship; whoever has time comes. Hao Ge asked me early this morning where there was a flower shop. You tell me, if it's not her, then who? But this Moon girl really has sincerity," Ma Long said with a look of confidence. He had completely regained his self-confidence. Arths is currently creating on the Moon, it's on her personal page, and A Youyou is on Earth. Most importantly, how could Arths be so proactive?!
Even if the sun went out, he wouldn't believe it!
So you see, the sun rises in the east and sets in the west as usual, and the world and the universe operate according to certain laws. He is still Ma Laoshi, the number one in the emotional world of Tianjing Martial Arts.
"A Youyou is still very excellent and very suitable for Hao Ge." As a best friend, Zuo Xiaotang expressed his approval. He felt that it was a difficult problem for both of them to get out of being single. Recently, he hadn't received a response to the messages he sent to Anlita, but in this regard, Zuo Xiaotang had basically reached the state of "no injury," at least she didn't just give him perfunctory "hmm"s.
Zuo Xiaotang had also asked Ma Long for advice. At first, Ma Long was startled; Zuoge's standards were so high now, and he wasn't even setting the difficulty that high, Anlita...
Of course, Zuo Xiaotang indicated he just wanted to make friends and didn't think that much, but how could he hide it from Ma Laoshi's fiery eyes? In the end, the advice given to Zuo Xiaotang was: since you are making friends, make more friends, the more the better. If one friend is too busy to reply recently, just chat with a few other friends.
If you can't be a Sea King, being a Sea Dog is also a state of being.
Suddenly, the noise outside began to become chaotic, accompanied by screams, and these screams became more and more frequent and louder.
Zhou Naiyi was a bit angry; why was the mecha team's training ground so noisy? Everyone couldn't help but walk toward the door. Huo Ying angrily pushed the door open, "What's the situation? Are you looking for death, daring to run wild on the territory of Tianjing Martial Arts?"
As soon as the door opened, a human wave exploded, almost knocking Huo Ying over. The people inside were also dumbfounded. What the hell, why are there so many people???
This is no longer just people from Tianjing Martial Arts; there are also many from outside, from other schools?
As soon as the team's door opened, the crowd suddenly became agitated, "Puppet!"
Puppet.
Puppet, Puppet, Puppet.
The crowd was completely boiling over, loudly calling out Puppet's name.
Some people turned on the selfie function of their Skylink, "Everyone, I am currently at the door of the Tianjing Team, and we will soon be able to confirm whether Team Leader Li Hao of Tianjing is Puppet!"
"Is the legendary Puppet Team Leader Li Hao?"
"Team Leader Li Hao, Team Leader Li Hao."
Everyone looked at each other in dismay; what was going on?
Zhou Naiyi had Huo Ying close the door, and Ma Long and the others hurriedly waved their hands, "It wasn't us who said it."
