Chapter 127

Chloe was amiable to everyone except Anderson for the whole day.

Now was no different.

When Qu Yan saw her, the tension on her face eased.

"You're here, want to take a break?"

Hearing this, Chloe nodded contentedly, "Sure, sure."

As she spoke, she led the group towards the Tagar Military Academy and sat down to rest.

The eager Lanxicha Military Academy team members who were about to reach the finish line and fight for the championship were stunned by their natural actions.

No, they had come this far, shouldn't they grab the flag first?

The flag was right there to their left, within arm's reach!

Yet they wanted to rest first???

The Lanxicha Military Academy could not understand, eyeing the finish line enviously. 𝘧𝘳ℯ𝓮𝘸𝓮𝑏𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓁.𝘤ℴ𝘮

Feng Xi could barely contain herself.

If they grabbed the flag now...

As she thought about this, Chloe's unhurried voice rang out from the front:

"Is the championship really that important? The No.1 Military Academy has won so many times, we're not really hung up on the championship anymore."

"But I can understand why you'd find it novel, Lanxicha has never won the championship before. It's only natural you're excited. If you're in such a hurry, you can grab the flag now."

Upon hearing this, the originally restless Lanxicha Military Academy members immediately lost interest.

Damn, wasn't that just mocking their lack of experience?

The Lanxicha Military Academy members were indignant.

It was just a championship, wasn't it? Even if they didn't take it now, they could still legitimately claim the championship once the three military academies decided the winner!

Thinking this, Feng Xi narrowed her eyes and signaled her team to stop and rest as well, strictly forbidding them from grabbing the flag.

If they took it now, it would just make Lanxicha Military Academy look like sore losers.

The other Lanxicha members agreed, and obediently followed orders.

Seeing this, Chloe smirked with satisfaction.

As expected, they were just a bunch of dimwits who would take the bait when provoked.

Her earlier words were just to lure them in. Of course, if they hadn't fallen for it and insisted on grabbing the flag, Chloe had ways to take it first.

Qu Yan chatted idly with her, and Chloe responded softly, nodding occasionally.

Until she noticed the silent Anderson treating his wounds nearby.

Qu Yan hesitated before asking, "What's wrong with him, he's so badly hurt? Don't you have Katherine? Can't she help him?"

"She can," Chloe said slowly, "but I don't want her to."

Hearing this, Qu Yan understood.

"Anderson made you angry?"

"Mmhm."

As she spoke, Chloe reached for her water flask, wanting to moisten her throat.

But when she opened it, she found it had been drained dry.

She frowned in annoyance and was about to put it away when something cool brushed against the back of her hand.

Chloe turned to see Anderson holding out a flask of water to her, likely full, his gaze calm.

Chloe stared at him for a moment, but didn't take it. Instead, she turned to Feng Xi and asked, "Hey, you got any water?"

Feng Xi, who had been sneaking glances at her, panicked, "Wh-What?"

Chloe repeated herself.

It was only then that Feng Xi hurriedly took out her own flask and carefully handed it to her.

After receiving the flask, Chloe poured some into her own, then returned it.

Throughout the whole process, she didn't look at Anderson once.

Meanwhile, Feng Xi was in a daze, hugging the flask and grinning foolishly.

Even the dull Lanxicha Military Academy members should have noticed something was off by now.

"..."

Their leader had fallen for the opposing academy's leader and might defect openly - what should they do?

Waiting online, it's urgent.

Not far away, Anderson's grip on the flask tightened, his fingertips turning pale from the pressure.

Witnessing everything, Qu Yan was quite surprised, but soon smiled lightheartedly:

"Oh my, you're really playing around. Be careful you don't provoke him too much."

Chloe took a sip of water, her tone nonchalant with a hint of disdain, "What can he do?"

She would definitely skin the brat if he dared.

Qu Yan laughed merrily.

After a while, she said slowly, "But Anderson's loyalty to you is plain to see. Don't you think you're going too far?"

Hearing this, Chloe shook her head irritably, her voice lowering, "I know."

She was just upset.

The mere thought that the person she had taken in and intended to cultivate properly would serve someone else, even threatening her, made her sick to her stomach.

Unless Anderson verbally promised her or gave a reasonable explanation, Chloe would never forgive him.

They rested for about half an hour more.

By then, night had completely fallen.

In the darkness, the Lanxicha Military Academy members felt drowsy and were about to sleep when a lazy female voice drifted over from nearby:

"Start fighting."

The Lanxicha members' eyes widened.

In the next moment, dust flew and the clanging of weapons rang out.

By the time the Lanxicha Military Academy joined the fray, the Tagar and No.1 Military Academies had already sustained some injuries.

The scorching heat of the Volcanic Planet had addled everyone's minds, and Chloe's "start fighting" order was just to wake herself up from drowsiness.

Who knew that not only the No.1 Military Academy obediently drew their weapons, even the tense Tagar Military Academy immediately unsheathed theirs without question.

The two sides clashed unexpectedly.

Chloe's drowsiness vanished instantly as she joined the battle.

Not to be outdone, the Lanxicha Military Academy members charged in as well.

Chaos erupted on the battlefield.

Most had lost their senses from the sweltering heat, fighting recklessly without technique, kicking and punching randomly.

This was especially evident in Daniel.

Just as Daniel was about to bite a Tagar student's butt in beast form, Qin Huaibei quickly pulled him back:

"Snap out of it! You're human now!"

"...Dammit! You can't even tell friend from foe anymore, can you? Don't bite me!"

Amidst the melee, Chloe glanced at her teammates, her gaze unconsciously falling on Qin Huaibei.

She was silent for a moment before swinging her blade to knock down an enemy academy member, asking:

"Why is part of your pants missing?"

And in such an awkward spot, too.

Qin Huaibei's face was beet red: "Daniel went into a frenzy and bit me!"

Chloe immediately looked reverent: "As expected of Daniel."

After that, she paused briefly, "But I didn't expect you to wear red underwear."

Katherine's soft laughter drifted over.

Qin Huaibei turned completely red from embarrassment: "You... I'm going to kill Daniel today!"

The two No.1 Military Academy teammates started fighting each other.

But even as they fought, they managed to take out some enemies from the other academies. The two were like dueling tops - any unfortunate soul who got too close would get dragged in, torn to shreds, and spat back out.

Anderson had pounded Feng Xi's head so hard it was throbbing. The brat was like a rabid dog, singling her out relentlessly.

Feng Xi sneered coldly, "Useless yourself, but you blame others instead. Real pathetic."

Anderson glared at her coldly and charged with his blade again.

When she was flung aside by the blow, Feng Xi was left somewhat dazed and ringing in her ears, but she could still clearly hear Anderson say to her:

"You little lady will always have only me, a dog, by your side. What are you?"
