The Interstellar Queen of Scavengers

Chapter 1101: Chapter 1011: War of Words

Penny stood in front of Ji You, forming a stark contrast with the short and shriveled Ji You.

Penny even reached out her hand, gently flicking Ji You’s fair and tender cheek, and said with a smile, ”Feels nice.”

Ji You: ”...”

Talked down to!

This was the second girl who took the initiative to tease him after Sister Liya. Ji You put on a stern face and said, ”I’ll forgive you this once because you’re good-looking.”

”Don’t let it happen again.” Ji You squinted, his tone sounding a bit dangerous.

Penny suddenly laughed and became serious: ”I’ve wanted to challenge you for a while now.”

Upon hearing this, Ji You’s face darkened slightly, and he said, ”You want to challenge me, during training class, after class... Any time will do! Just not at this moment.”

When physical strength is exhausted, the body is injured, and the six spiritual threads are each weary, challenging me clearly means bullying!

Ji You put his hands on his hips and accused, ”Penny, you sly creature. Be honest, have you been holding back a breath, wanting to hit me all along?”

Penny: ”...”

Upon hearing this, and thinking of past events, Penny’s expression was truly indescribable, to say it wasn’t easy.

Ji You clicked his tongue and said, ”Wasn’t that just a sneak attack during the final exam? That old chestnut, already an old story. Why still remember it?”

”Let me tell you, the most beautiful virtue of a girl, also the most important, is to be magnanimous!” Ji You became more excited as he spoke, one hand on his hip, one foot slamming the floor, speaking with flying spit, his expression utterly hideous.

Penny was so aggravated, her gums hurt, and she couldn’t help but curse: ”As I see it, the ugliest, most unwanted feature in a girl is to speak nonsense!”

”...Tut!” Ji You was caught off guard and clicked his tongue, teasingly saying, ”Penny, you’re a lady, and ladies shouldn’t use foul language. Look at yourself now, not only using foul language but spouting nonsense too!”

Penny clenched her fists, cursing: ”Not only will I use foul language and spout nonsense, but I’ll also beat you up!”

Ji You cautiously stepped back, saying, ”Wait... wait... just because I criticized you and pointed out your problems, you want to beat me? That’s not right!”

Penny’s temple throbbed: ”I have a problem?” When was that?

Reversing right from wrong and speaking outright!

In the dropout zone, Lou couldn’t stand it anymore and urged, ”Hey, are you two going to fight or not? Don’t waste time, alright!”

Ji You glanced in Lou’s direction and said, ”We’re fighting now!”

Lou: ”???”

Ji You righteously said: ”Isn’t a verbal fight still a fight?”

Lou: ”...”

Lou was truly stunned, and other students in the dropout zone clearly looked like they were suffocated, with some ungracefully rolling their eyes.

Lou stretched his neck and spoke to Mu Jianling on the podium: ”Teacher, these two are deliberately wasting time!”

Mu Jianling raised his head from the Light Computer screen, seeming indifferent: ”Deliberately wasting time is a strategy allowed by the rules.”

Lou: ”...”

Ji You looked smugly at Lou, opening his mouth, when next second, he heard Mu Jianling say: ”However, verbal sparring is not part of the competition.”

Ji You: ”...”

Ji You immediately bolted off!

Behind him, Penny was utterly speechless. When she and Ji You were speaking those few words just now, she certainly understood Ji You was deliberately wasting time to recover physical strength.

Coincidentally, Penny’s intent was the same.

After battling Lou fiercely and ultimately winning, Penny’s energy was significantly depleted.

She certainly needed some time to recover, but there were many who wanted to challenge Ji You, so she had to seize the opportunity. Thus, Penny never stopped, capturing this chance.

The duel begins.

Penny readied herself for an attack, but Ji You slipped away beforehand!

Furious!

Penny stomped her foot in frustration and chased after him.

Sure enough, 4444 deliberately initiated a conversation with Lou just now to distract her so he could escape. Originally Ji You could not escape, as Penny had arched her back throughout, stealthily blocking all possible escape routes for Ji You.

But then—

Penny had always been vigilant, reminding herself to maintain the defense line and not be disturbed by 4444. Yet 4444 truly was uncanny, using a few words to infuriate her, causing her state of mind to falter, her focus shifting elsewhere.

Thinking this, Penny was suddenly struck by a realization:

This!

This is Spiritual Interference.

She was enlightened, no wonder her mood was influenced; Ji You had already intervened unnoticed.

She—

Truly a terrifying opponent.

Watching Ji You slipping to the other side of the training room, Penny’s heart sank; she understood her advantage and preferred entangled fighting which, in essence, is close combat.

Once fighting long-distance, it’s hard to establish superiority.

But!

Penny sprang forth like artillery fire, darting out swiftly.

Ji You ran even faster—not in a straight line; she moved like a slippery snake, her escape route twisting like mountain roads.

Plus, she was particularly annoying, using her short stature and agility to jump across the public equipment in the training room, making Penny dare not use heavy force.

Damaging public property meant elimination.

Penny had no choice but to contemplate; after deliberation, she decided to use long-range attacks on Ji You. She put away her Soft Sword and brought out an Energy Short Gun!

The audience, including Lou, Ren An, and Xuzhou, frowned.

Lou said with a frown, ”Penny using a short gun?”

Ren An said, ”Not quite feasible.”

Xuzhou with a stern face said, ”Your prediction about Penny is too pessimistic. I think—it’s still not feasible.”

Lou, Ren An gave Xuzhou a glance. Xuzhou’s expression unchanged continued: ”Not feasible, but—entirely not feasible.”

Lou, Ren An: ”...”

Lou rolled his eyes and said, ”You’re too pessimistic about Penny, aren’t you? She at least defeated me.”

—You say Penny is entirely not feasible; that’s disrespectful to me.

—This is practically saying I’m entirely not feasible either.

Just as Lou felt his face heat up, he heard Ren An next to him say: ”It’s because Ji You is more suitable for playing with guns! Ji You’s speed is faster than her, reactions more agile.”

”Penny wants to counterattack; there’s only one way, which is—” Pausing slightly, Ren An continued: ”That is—to dream.”

Lou: ”...”

Xuzhou said: ”To counterattack Ji You, actually, there’s another way, which is—”

As Lou felt he was about to be indirectly humiliated again, he heard Xuzhou, with a serious face, say: ”Chase after Ji You, pulling her into close combat.”
