The ever-changing star starts with a rice cooker.

"Good! Well done!"

Ms. Huang, a teacher from the Second Middle School across the street, tossed her hair and clapped enthusiastically.

The situation is very favorable for him, with one win and one draw. He only needs to win one of the next two games.

"Teacher, isn't it my turn?"

The handsome young man with delicate features stood up.

As soon as he moved, the female students from No. 1 Middle School next to the playground shouted.

"What's the rush? It's not your turn. Next up is that little ice girl. I know her; she's rich, talented, and capable. Peach, you go first. Winning or losing doesn't matter."

The handsome young man was pressed down again by Teacher Huang.

The woman called Peach stood up.

She is the elemental mage that Bing Xiaomei just mentioned.

The Ice Maiden and the Elemental Mage are evenly matched.

As soon as Taozi came out, Bing Xiaomei's face instantly darkened.

It's not that I feel I can't win, but rather that the opponent's tactics were too despicable.

Let the female lead go first, not that handsome young man.

It's clearly a case of playing the "Tian Ji's horse racing" strategy, where the "top-tier horse" is ultimately used to counter the "lower-tier horse" of No. 1 Middle School.

That's right, the worst student at No. 1 Middle School is Ning Du, who's standing right next to me with a silly grin on his face!

"Damn it, that's really insidious!"

Teacher Qin was so angry that she gritted her teeth in anger.

Ning Du hadn't reacted yet and was still asking, "What's going on? How did this turn out to be so insidious?"

Teacher Qin replied, "The opponent is holding a trump card, which they're going to use at the last moment. Ning Du, you might be in for a beating!"

"what?"

Ning Du's eyes widened. Why was he about to get beaten up?

I'm a substitute, and I still get beaten up?

The Awakening Realm is too cruel!

On the field, Bing Xiaomei and Na Taozi were already locked in a fierce battle.

One wave of icy air swept around, while the other switched between the three elements of wind, fire, and lightning.

It doesn't have any special moves, but it looks very flashy.

"Frosty Hair!"

Suddenly, Bing Xiaomei's hair grew longer and turned into icicles that pierced Taozi's body.

With a sharp cry, Peach cast a fire shield on herself to forcefully block the attack.

Unfortunately, the next moment, frost spread from Bing Xiaomei's feet, activating an area attack.

Ice spikes!

Suddenly, ice spikes rose from the ground and nearly pierced the peach.

The three ice spikes crossed and trapped Peach in place, also breaking her fire shield in the process.

"good!"

Ning Du clapped repeatedly; this series of quick moves was a delight to watch.

Tall guy and Big Eyes also cheered.

But the next moment, the peach actually started crying.

Tears drip, drip.

Tall Guy and Big Eyes immediately betrayed him.

"Ouch, Xiaomei, you hit too hard!"

"We're all classmates, there's no need to be so ruthless."

"Just admit defeat, little junior."

Seeing that things were not going well, Teacher Huang from No. 2 Middle School quickly stepped forward and announced that he had given up.

Even though she won the competition, Bing Xiaomei was still unhappy and furious. She glared at Da Yan and Gao Lao with her icy blue eyes.

"Which side are you two on?"

Big Eyes and Tall Guy exchanged a glance, and said, "I will always stand on the side of the beautiful... no, the weak."

"I didn't sit down!"

Bing Xiaomei pulled out an ice sword, wanting to pierce the hearts of these two bastards with cold and light.

"One win, one loss, and one draw—that won't do! Luckily, we both brought substitutes; it's time for a decisive match!"

Teacher Huang swaggered up to Teacher Qin Lu, his smile utterly lewd.

It's hard to imagine that someone like that could become a teacher.

Ning Du suddenly thought that Wang Li might become a teacher in the future. With a frog-like head, croaking during class would be very interesting.

Teacher Qin looked grim. She knew, of course, that the other party had deliberately left behind a key figure to clean up the mess.

On her side, all that was left was... a human-shaped rice cooker.

How do we fight this?

It feels like they're just delivering vegetables... no, I mean, delivering rice.

Teacher Qin looked at Ning Du and saw that Ning Du showed no fear whatsoever. She sighed and thought, "Ignorance is bliss."

Well, we can't keep Ning Du off the field forever.

As someone who will one day take the entrance exam for Guardian University, combat is an essential hurdle to overcome.

"Understood, I'll tell my students."

"Okay, no problem!"

Before leaving, Teacher Huang gave Ning Du a look that seemed to say, "Young man, you're about to have your fun."

Teacher Qin pulled Ning Du aside and said, "Ning Du, there's still one really strong opponent left. You might not be able to beat him!"

Ning Du blinked and said, "Let's try."

Seeing that he was still eager to try, Teacher Qin gave him another reminder.

"They also transform, but they can become monsters with good offense and defense. Your rice cooker probably can't do that!"

Ning Du patted his chest and said, "That's not necessarily true, it's rock hard!"

Teacher Qin sighed and gave her final advice: "The opponent's World Power is around 60, and he's a transformation-type user, so I suspect his transformation won't last long. If you can last ten minutes, you have a chance of winning. But... never mind, if you can't, just admit defeat. It's a competition, there are winners and losers, it's nothing. It's just that the teacher loses face a little, it's not a big deal."

Ning Du clenched his fist and said, "Teacher, don't worry, I will never let you down."

Teacher Qin smiled bitterly, thinking to herself, "You're probably the one who's most embarrassed."

If someone else goes up and loses, that's fine. But if you go up, people will just laugh.

Sigh, there's nothing I can do.

Even if it's embarrassing, I have to go, for the sake of Ningdu's future.

"Okay, go ahead, rice cooker!"

Teacher Qin waved his hand and let Ning Du take the stage.

At that moment, the bell rang, and the students in Class 9 of Grade 1 seemed to have already received the news, and they all started running outside.

"Has it started? Has it started? Has Ning Ge gone on stage yet?"

"I don't know, can anyone tell me what stage the competition is at?"

"Oh my, one win, one loss, and one draw, right? Then Brother Ning is really going to play!"

"Let's go cheer for Brother Ning! That zombie, run faster!"

"Let's go, let's go!"

……

With a whoosh, a group of students rushed onto the playground, waiting to watch the competition.

Several teachers also arrived, including Mr. Xu, Ningdu's homeroom teacher.

"Oh, your class is getting a rice cooker? Is it going to work?"

"Who knows, but I have faith in Ning Du; the young man is quite good."

"Studying is different from being a guardian."

"Who says that? One thing applies to everything. I'm rooting for him!"

Male and female students arrived one after another.

As the crowd grew larger, Ning Du became increasingly excited.

There are so many viewers! If they really lose, won't they be laughed at until graduation?

Will anyone still ask him for tutoring after that?

Did any female classmates give him snacks?

We can't lose!

Ning Du stretched his body and officially took the stage.

The handsome young man opposite also stood up, exchanged a glance with Teacher Huang, nodded slightly, and strode forward.

Both of them have the ability to transform, and both are equally handsome (who says otherwise? I'll pretend I didn't hear that!).

Upon reaching the center, the two stopped.

The handsome young man spoke first: "My name is Cheng Fan, from Class 4, Grade 1 of No. 2 Middle School. I might be a bit heavy-handed after transforming, so please forgive me if I offend anyone!"

Ning Du laughed and replied, "Ning Du, Class 9, Grade 1. You're really heavy-handed when you transform? Coincidentally, so am I!"
