The ever-changing star starts with a rice cooker.

Chapter 132 A Challenge Arrives (4,000 words)

"Go to another school for an exchange program?"

Ning Du was a little confused. Why go to another school?

If we really want to exchange ideas, wouldn't plenty of other schools be willing to come over? Why would we need to make the trip ourselves?

Before Ning Du could even ask a question, Teacher Qin explained directly, "After two exchanges, many schools have recently withdrawn their challenge letters."

At this point, Teacher Qin turned and glanced at Ning Du.

Immediately, everyone else shook their heads and sighed, "They're scared of them!"

"Ningdu, you played too aggressively in the last match!"

"Exactly, Ning Du, you terrified everyone in the last match!"

"I reckon they'll almost wet their pants after watching your fight."

"Quickly withdraw the challenge, then cower under the covers and tremble."

"Turns out, we found a rice cooker in the blanket!"

"Hahaha, it's got that horror movie vibe!"

Ning Du spread his hands, "This can't be blamed on him."

A world pass worth a million dollars is being wagered; we have to go all out to win.

Moreover, Luo Cheng is really not weak!

His strength is definitely at the expert level among those at the Dust level.

It's just that he encountered a master like Ning Du.

Teacher Qin tapped on the table to silence everyone.

Then Teacher Qin said loudly, "These schools thought they could bully us when we were weak, climbing over us to get ahead! Now that they see we're strong, they want to leave unscathed? There's no such easy way out. So, after discussing it with Principal Zhu, we decided to start with those schools that wanted to withdraw their challenges. Everyone has to participate; these opportunities are rare!"

"Yes, teacher!"

"Don't worry, teacher. I'll beat these cowards to a pulp."

"Teacher, don't worry, with Ningdu backing us up, we won't lose no matter what."

Teacher Qin then looked at Ningdu.

"Do you have any questions?"

Ning Du grinned and said, "No problem, I'm really looking forward to it."

""

Ning Du's eyes gleamed with a sharp light.

He, who originally only had a little over two hundred world power, was not afraid of these opponents.

Now that it's risen to 300, all he wants to ask is...

"Who else!"

Seeing everyone's high spirits, Teacher Qin couldn't help but smile broadly.

"Great, let's pick a school to start with. Which school has the best food?"

At Yizhou No. 1 Middle School, the journey of freeloading meals—no, it should be called the journey of challenging others to meals—has officially begun.

Our first destination was Bawang No. 4 Middle School.

The reason I chose this school is not only because the school's food is said to be very good.

More importantly, the students at this school are extremely "outrageous".

Before the first two matches between Ningdu and other schools.

Students from this school keep posting videos online, claiming they're stepping on Yizhou No.1 Middle School and crushing a certain rice cooker!

They're quite the troublemakers; they bought a broken rice cooker and used it for all sorts of elbow strikes and explosions.

The video with the most views was about using various fireworks and firecrackers to blow up the shell of a rice cooker and see which one exploded the highest.

Such an arrogant school, but after the rice cooker beat up Luo Cheng.

These arrogant guys started frantically deleting videos and then canceling their challenge.

Unfortunately, the internet has a memory.

To be precise, they were the toad-men who browsed the internet; Brother Biao and his group have memories of them.

Seeing this school reminds me of those bastards; they absolutely have to be punished.

You think you can just leave like that? What do you take us Rice Cooker Heroes for?

Today I'll show you what it means to be slapped in the face, and who's just eating and drinking for free.

After spending a little money on transportation, we headed straight to Bawang No. 4 Middle School.

Don't be afraid to spend money. It's just a small amount. You can earn it back by doing a live stream later.

Send a message to Bawang No. 4 Middle School half an hour in advance, saying that we have received your challenge and agree to it.

You don't need to come this time; we'll go ourselves. Just prepare lunch.

After sending the message, he turned off his phone and refused to answer any calls. Then he took a flying vehicle straight to Bawang No. 4 Middle School.

When Ning Du and his group arrived at the campus of Bawang No. 4 Middle School in their flying vehicle, the students in the Awakening Class of Bawang No. 4 Middle School were dumbfounded.

Their teacher's face almost turned green. He had just received a message saying that Yizhou No. 1 Middle School had agreed to their challenge, and he was so shocked that he almost jumped up.

What's going on? Didn't they already send a message to Yizhou No.1 Middle School saying it was canceled? Why are they still coming?!

What does that mean, "forced into sexual intercourse"?

As the aircraft landed, Teacher Qin smiled and stepped forward to shake hands with Teacher Xiang in a friendly manner.

"Hello, hello. You must be Teacher Xiang? We were truly humbled and honored to receive your challenge. We didn't dare trouble you, so we came in person!"

Teacher Xiang said in a low voice, "Didn't we already send a withdrawal letter? Why are you still here!"

"Withdrawal? Was it withdrawn? I didn't see it! Oh, what's there to withdraw? Isn't inter-school exchange a good thing? What, does your school have some unspeakable reason? Wait a minute, your students seem pretty cheerful, they're having a blast exploding rice cookers online."

Teacher Qin's beaming smile left Teacher Xiang speechless.

Ning Du and the others disembarked from the aircraft and began shouting.

"Where are the guys who fried the rice cookers? Come join the fun!"

"I've brought you a large rice cooker!"

Biao and the others were having a great time shouting.

But Ning Du still advised them to keep a low profile.

After all, there's no rice cooker today, only rats.

Teacher Xiang gritted his teeth inwardly.

It seems the visitors today are not friendly; those with good intentions don't come!

I knew it wouldn't be a good thing if his school kids were too naughty; now they've attracted monsters!

Look at these bastards, they're even preparing to start a live stream.

This is a public slap in the face to their school.

The kind that makes a popping sound.

Trying to put someone down but getting put down in return is so embarrassing.

"Teacher Qin, no rush, no rush. You've all come all this way, you must be hungry. Let's eat something first and then exchange our thoughts. The competition is scheduled for this afternoon, how about this afternoon?"

"Okay, I'll follow Teacher Xiang's arrangements!"

Teacher Qin smiled happily. He noticed that Teacher Xiang's forehead was almost dripping with sweat.

There's no need to push them too hard; let's see how they handle it.

If even a rice cooker can't handle it, what are we going to do with today's rats?

Teacher Qin didn't even need to test Ning Du's strength; he could tell from Ning Du's aura that his strength had greatly increased.

We must show the other schools what's what today, so they won't have any more wicked ideas.

We ate first, without caring whether anyone had eaten breakfast or not, and headed straight to the canteen.

The group ate and took some food, complaining about how stingy Principal Zhu was, and that the school's food was actually better than that of Yizhou No. 1 Middle School.

After eating, he went to someone else's "awakening class" to brag.

It's mainly just Brother Biao and his group bragging, while everyone else sits and listens.

There was no way around it; I felt like I'd really get beaten up if I didn't listen.

The competition this afternoon is no joke.

Especially those few who do abstract things online, they're behaving like good little kids right now.

They were initially relieved that the rice cooker hadn't arrived today, otherwise they would have been locked inside and boiled into human meat soup.

Upon further inquiry, it turned out that the rice cooker had turned into a rat.

That cute-looking yellow lightning mouse is actually a rice cooker!

He has recently "evolved" into a new form!

What's the point of playing this? It's just stomping on noobs.

Maybe I should take the afternoon off and go home. It's better to back down than to get beaten up!

While the others were still boasting, Ning Du sat to the side and began studying the alchemy method the old man had given him.

Although the thing the old man gave me doesn't seem to make any sense at first glance, it's actually quite interesting when you look into it closely.

It involves too many things, and there are all sorts of formulas, techniques, and skills that need to be memorized, which is quite complicated.

Moreover, some of these things are truly anti-human. How can one concentrate on alchemy while also drawing magic circles?

It seems like only he could learn this. The rice cooker can slowly shake itself to adjust the temperature. And then he can draw magic circles on his own body.

How did that old man do it himself? He shook the alchemy furnace with both hands and then drew a magic circle on his body with his feet.

The invention of that technique is flawed!

No wonder he wanted me to be his apprentice. He couldn't handle anyone else. Who would learn this rubbish?

While reading, Ning Du also had to memorize all sorts of messy equations.

When people refine elixirs, they pay attention to the formula and the techniques.

What kind of anti-aging pills, foundation-building pills, or egg-boosting pills are these?!

He didn't have a single pill formula; it was all sorts of random techniques. Ning Du seriously doubted whether this stuff was even useful.

But thinking about it carefully, it seems I've already tried it once.

As for the results, I'd say they were alright.

Well, since it's still somewhat useful, I'll keep learning.

As the saying goes, having many skills is never a burden!

More importantly, the old man eats, drinks, and lives at his house for free every day. If I don't learn something from him, I feel like I'm losing out.

You must learn it, and you must master it, in order to recoup your investment.

Besides, is this thing really that difficult?

You think you can stump me?

If you push me too far, I'll transform into a computer and teach you how to use it.

Ning Du sat there motionless, displaying the demeanor of a great general, truly as immovable as a mountain.

He looks like a master!

Although it's a yellow-skinned rat, it looks a bit out of place.

Teacher Xiang from Bawang No. 4 Middle School seized the opportunity and called out his star student.

"Yu Can, come out here, hurry up!"

Yu Can sneaked out through the back door and came to Teacher Xiang's side.

"What's wrong, teacher? Are they being too arrogant? I'll buy some drinks and laxatives right away, and make them go to the toilet!"

Teacher Xiang raised his hand and said, "There's no need to be so despicable. Don't ruin the school's reputation!"

Teacher Xiang pulled Yu Can a little further away, then asked softly, "Tell me the truth, how confident are you in dealing with that rice cooker?"

Upon hearing this, Yu Can sighed and said, "Teacher, you've seen the live stream of their match against Quanfei High School."

That's really amazing, especially the lighter at the end, it's insane! I feel like I'd be instantly killed if I went up there.

Teacher Xiang nodded. "I know, I saw it too. He's really strong! But if—and I mean if he can't transform into a lighter or a rice cooker—in his current yellow rat form, could you beat him?"

"Hmm? Like that? He looks cute and doesn't seem threatening at all. He's probably testing a new transformation. If it's a new transformation, it means he hasn't developed many techniques yet. I feel there's a chance, at least a 50% chance!"

Yu Can, wanting to boost the teacher's morale, spoke a bit more boldly.

But when he said 50%, he only held up four fingers, which looked quite ridiculous.

"You have a 50% chance. Fine, 40% is 40%. Let's take a gamble, maybe a bicycle will turn into a motorcycle."

"Teacher, what exactly do you want to do?"

Yu Can really didn't understand. Why wouldn't they just use a lighter?

That powerful finishing move is clearly a trump card. When the time comes, it will definitely have to be used.

"I have connections in the Guardian Tower. I can help you borrow something!"

Teacher Xiang said in a low voice.

Yu Can suddenly remembered. Indeed, Teacher Xiang's older brother was the captain of the Guardian Building; that's a very powerful connection!

"Teacher, do you mean to play with him using treasures?"

Teacher Xiang spread his hands and said, "Did anyone say we can't use it? It wasn't written when we challenged him. Besides, he can pretend he didn't see our withdrawal. Why can't I borrow something?"

Yu Can whispered, "Teacher, they're live-streaming. If you do this, it won't just be me who loses face. It might implicate the whole school and even Captain Xiang."

"What are you afraid of? I'm not afraid, so why are you? Being humiliated, getting sliced ​​up like a watermelon, that's truly humiliating. Failing to withstand a single blow and having them walk away, that's incredibly embarrassing. Listen to me, prepare yourself properly. I'll go borrow some things for you right now. Try to borrow a couple more things to boost your strength dramatically. Defeat that rice cooker!"

Teacher Xiang has made a decision.

Yu Can couldn't help but straighten his back.

"Okay, teacher. Since you're going all out, I'll go all out too. I'm even willing to revive myself once during today's game. Let's do it!"

"You have guts! Your teacher believes in you!"

Teacher Xiang patted Yu Can's shoulder heavily and then quickly left.

No one else saw what they were doing.

However, a certain toad-man saw it clearly through the reflective glass.

The toad man quickly approached the rat man.

"Brother Ning," the toad-man said softly, "I have a feeling something's fishy. This school's going to pull some tricks. Be careful, croak."

Ning Du answered without looking up, "What did you hear? There's something fishy going on. Should we tell Teacher Qin?"

The toad-man said, "Teacher Qin has been sent away by their principal, I don't think he'll be back until the afternoon. The key is you, Brother Ning, their Jingfenzhijing gang is coming for you. I'm going to go gather more information, wait for my news, my ears and eyes are really sharp now, ribbit!"

"Okay, I'll wait for your reply!"

Ning Du remained calm, seemingly unconcerned.

Because the gap in strength has reached a certain point, it cannot be bridged by any means.

Ning Du even hoped they would pull off some fancy moves. Otherwise, wouldn't this trip be too boring?

Before getting up to leave, the toad-man suddenly remembered something and said, "By the way, Ning-ge. I asked around about that World Pass you got last time. I got some world intelligence, I'll send it to you later. Can you take me with you on vacation?"

"intelligence?"

Ning Du said "Oh," and then took out a memory crystal and handed it to the toad man.

"I've gathered the intelligence too, take a look first. We'll talk more when I get my vacation!"
