Chapter 1414: NO.30: The demon's social circle is like this

NO. 30: The demon's social circle is like this.

Compared to the previous big eater contest, this time's sponsor is anonymous, and the advertised prize also carries an unknown aspect.

As for internal matters……

Bopang knew the prize but chose to keep it secret altogether, which didn't seem bound by any contract clause, causing Aomo to restrain his curiosity.

Since she had specially asked to participate, Aomo just went along with her.

Moreover, due to the other party's then-secretive attitude about the prize, Aomo not only didn't ask further, but even his lack of questioning was somewhat hasty—he didn't even know the specific schedule, merely asking if it conflicted with training.

After receiving a negative reply, he continued with his work at hand.

Then, the next afternoon, hearing the noisy, chaotic crowd and the host's barely noticeable movements, Aomo suddenly realized.

It turned out to be that day's noon.

Then, should I go cheer them on?

The subtle coincidence left him feeling somewhat hesitant all along.

In what should have been a time to handle a friend's confiding worries, I specially let the high school girls settle lunch first, and I, presenting a busy front that needed no pretense, after a little social maneuvering, made possible the luxurious dining team—originally there was no trace of this big eater contest.

Although it turned out more smoothly than expected to become the wake-up call for the senior as a door‑knocking brick, it also made him unable to stay seated in the chair.

By comparison, Miss Dazhenhan's remark that should have been startlingly observant gave Aomo little sense of surprise.

Of course, with the telepathic link, even the slightest fluctuation is easily noticed by the top students of mental studies, but such a fluctuation paired with Aomo's immediate response only adds a sense of privacy.

Realizing this wasn't a topic he should rashly delve into, the well‑meaning and properly courteous Miss Dazhenhan hurriedly apologized.

Perhaps later she will also need to apologize once more to Xiqifeng……

【I am definitely out of money: intentional?】

Glancing at the fresh, warm message on the terminal, the perpetually humorous ID name and the serious question below formed a stark contrast.

【Yuehuanshe: Yes】

After a brief silence, in Aomo's sight he raised his hand, took a big gulp of drink, then scooped two mouthfuls of the baked rice's steaming core and chewed several rounds, and Xiqifeng re‑lit his dim phone.

【I am definitely out of money: Have I really gone astray?】

【Yuehuanshe: Whether wrong or right, I still lack the qualification to judge

but the you I know is indeed somewhat different from the you I heard of before and the you I just met】

【I am definitely out of money: Is it also the case with what the shackles said?】

【Yuehuanshe: Also】

【I am definitely out of money: ……Thank you】

【Yuehuanshe: It seems I don't need to say whose idea this was】

【I am definitely out of money: You won't say it either, will you?】

【Yuehuanshe: I just told her that I usually indulge my subordinates, the horse girls】

【I am definitely out of money: Trainers are all like that, so there's nothing to ask about】

【Yuehuanshe: Then have you considered an opportunity? The most stimulating thing for yourself recently】

【I am definitely out of money: That probably has to count your kid's smooth rise to prominence】

【Yuehuanshe: I can drink a few rounds with you, but I'll have to say this later—what should be said now is something else】

"Well… I'm afraid I have to bring up that Chasing Light Association again."

"……" The dialogue suddenly shifted from text to speech, causing Aomo, who had been trying to discern the host's movements amid the distant noisy sounds, to turn his head.

In the mouth of the Senlinbaoxue classmate who seems to invoke Suzi's impatient tone whenever mentioned, Bopang's performance, as expected, shocked many students.

It's hard to imagine that the cyber horse girl, known only for her mechanical reputation, also has the talent to compete school‑wide at the dinner table, especially since this is a preliminary round with over a dozen participants—far more than usual—and yet Bopang still maintains a leading position in the great escape momentum.

Even if it's only a short‑term advantage, it deserves praise, but thinking that the contest measures big‑mouth eating, Aomo again silently refrained from speaking.

High‑speed eating and high‑speed running are no different; both allow no slip‑up whatsoever, whether in reality or in mind, and the trainer who doesn't want to backfire by speaking rashly finally withdrew his multitasking focus, completely concentrating on the present banquet full of surprises.

Besides the invited and planned spots, the unexpected participants Bai Ren and Ludolf showed up, and the accidental encounter with the big eater contest, which also thanks to the contest smoothly opened up conversation.

Furthermore, in this topic I again unexpectedly heard the name of the club that had been temporarily set aside.

"Before? Did you guys talk about that mess of a club earlier?"

Always stealing the spotlight, the Sirius Symbol seems quite familiar with the Chasing the Light of Legend Club, like a seasoned surf‑rider, or perhaps……

"Is it that? That whatever 'Chasing the Light of Legend,' the old lady keeps hearing that broken organization spewing nonsense reports about her!"

It appears she is a direct victim.

Considering that the Sirius Symbol, while its name is loud, has actually subtle results, leading to a subtle reputation, it's no surprise that such hyenas would target it.

Especially since she likewise announced a comeback for the year‑end, yet failed to secure a slot in the Dream Cup… Although there are many others in the same boat who failed, and even more who succeeded and occupy various discussion boards, it doesn't mean the gossip media, self‑media, and marketing accounts that scoop up trash reports will let them off.

What broken team dares to write articles mocking itself?

Even before returning to the Border Gate District, the Sirius Symbol had already fought 18 battles with 5 wins, giving it a sense of having broken fate, and also a bit of the arrogance of one returning from the star domain.

But she also wields an eyebrow pencil.

Thinking that these folks on Earth have no idea how cutthroat extraterrestrial competitions are, how many rules they break, and have no chance to voice their grievances or prove themselves, they were first pressed by the Speed Symbol, then forced to spectate the showdown between the Moon Gallop Symbol and the Speed Symbol, until Aomo broke the stalemate—only to fall into that endless soft‑hard grinding with no real progress.

Hmm… although Aomo thinks she's here to display astonishing wisdom, she feels she's just soft‑hard grinding.

In the end, success still came from the breakthrough opened by Ludolf, Qianming and their interactions with Aomo, but she hadn't yet had a chance to put her grand words into action before being hit by the cold competition rules.

Now she's even more reduced to a foil, being dragged by hyena media for clicks to be mocked.

Over these days, the restraint shown by Ludolf, Qianming, and Bai Ren in contacting Aomo can be said to stem from various concerns—only she——

——only the Sirius Symbol is everywhere playing bumper balls, flying planes, and swinging sticks to beat people.

All of the above are literal actions, including finally—the Sirius Symbol, which holds an 8th‑grade qualification in French kickboxing Savate/Sa Fa Dou technique, has many Sa Fa Dou training institutions willing to engage in exchange and apply for sparring.

She uses these ways to vent anger and energy, rather than seeking Aomo, because she doesn't want to lose to the others under this mutual understanding, nor does she want to dump emotional garbage on the trainer.

After all, she is quite clear that her contractual relationship with Aomo must differ from that with the other three.

As the great contributor who facilitated everyone's contract, I fear I am a major war criminal in Aomo's heart.

Their interaction, even to this day, consists solely of mutual mockery, ridicule, and threats.

Gentleness and friendliness leave no trace; naturally they would not go and show weakness to the enemy.

But now it's another matter.

Suddenly hearing here the name of one of those broken media outlets spoken by the family's intelligence crew, the Sirius symbol won't let slip any chance!

"Er..." he looked in surprise at Sirius, then immediately turned his gaze to Aomo, and Xiqi Feng suddenly felt uneasy, as if he himself had acted impulsively.

"It's exactly that, I actually……"

"Rudolf! Can't we just tear down that lowly club!"

Xiqi: "……"

Rudolf: "……"

Although the Symbol family indeed has some underhanded abilities—being able to easily move against certain small teams or groups without evidence—but you say this in front of a crowd of complicated old acquaintances?

You really can!

"Can you really tear it down?"

As JunChuan JiangSheng and Aomo Lindun almost simultaneously raised their hands to slash the sound‑proof barrier, Bai Ren, who had not noticed this, merely frowned, narrowed his eyes slightly, and was evidently trying hard to recall, also spoke up.

"This name, I also seem to have an impression; I seem to have heard it before."
