Daily life of a teacher in the martial arts department

Ahe and Luoshui exchanged a glance, and the two of them entered the water one after the other in tacit agreement, clearly not harboring any unrealistic fantasies.

In the end, only Wakaba remained.

She was clinging to the balloon, hanging upside down, and whether it was because of her fear of heights or simply out of sight, she kept her eyes tightly closed.

Ying Qin Guan walked to the balloon next to her and squatted down.

At this moment, Wakaba, who had heard no sound from beside her, cautiously opened her eyes.

—The first thing you see is the Qin Pass.

The other person reached out and ruthlessly pried open Ruoye's arm, making her the last one to fall into the water!

The second round of the competition then came to an end.

The program team started scoring, and the order in which they fell into the water was: Shenxin, Yequ, Shijiuxiu, Munandong, Naifeitian, Zhaoyunxian, Jiuyi, Yuxietian (Jiuyi touched the water earlier), and the Ruoye trio.

Finally, there's the invincible platypus that didn't fall into the water.

Statistical scores.

第一名依然是鸠亦组，4+7+12+20，总共43分。

Group 19, with 2+3+5+17 points, totaling 27 points, was the biggest loser, but still managed to stay afloat thanks to their strong foundation from the first round of the competition.

Zhao Yunxian's group, with 1+6+8+9 points and 24 points, is gradually catching up with the Nineteenth Xiu group.

Finally, Ruoye's team almost pulled off a stunning comeback, scoring 9 points, 10 rebounds, 11-12, and 18 points... If it weren't for Luoshui's disastrous performance in the first round, they probably would have made a huge comeback—of course, that's unlikely; if that were the case, Ying Qin Guan would definitely have manipulated the order in which the people fell into the water... but it's hard to say.

Although Shenxin was the first to leave, he never lost a verbal battle. He immediately picked up a small blackboard and began to give his opinions.

"Nephalem, there's only one reason you got instantly killed: you were showing off your culture in front of Zhang Yu!"

"Hmph... Ying Qin Guan is lucky. If I were close to him, I would definitely slide tackle and kill him instantly, without fail!"

"Stop...stop talking."

Zhao Yunxian, being easily embarrassed, couldn't bear to listen anymore.

Yu Xietian didn't care and said, "Try to understand, that's how she is when she has an attack."

“There were no platypuses in this world originally,” Nephalem sighed deeply. “It was only because there were too many people who refused to accept defeat that platypuses came into being.”

"Do you perhaps intend to return to the Imperial Academy and retake your arts studies?"

"The philosophy department is dead!"

"Ladies and gentlemen," the host then arrived, "this round of the competition is much faster than we expected... Anyway, let's go change our clothes first."

—Apart from Ying Qin Guan, everyone else went to change their clothes.

To be honest, the production team originally wanted a segment where everyone was like Wakaba, clinging to balloons and trying to pull each other down – a bit of a chaotic, amateurish competition that would be more entertaining and longer. Instead, these martial artists just swept through the area, ending the match in a flash, and it wasn't even that interesting… Frankly, this segment completely missed the production team's expectations.

Everyone went to change their clothes... which were of course sponsored by the production team, and were printed with various time-traveling warriors, which could also be considered as advertising.

This could be considered a form of "proof of weakness," but the clothes that Time Killer specially made were far better looking than those made by Yorozuya, and Ying Qin Guan was somewhat envious. However, as the winner of the previous match, he couldn't possibly change his clothes.

Wear your own clothes! Wearing these clothes is like constantly telling everyone around you, "You are all losers! The winner is me, Ying Qin Guan!"

Of course, he would soon realize that this was not the case at all. Because he would have to change his clothes again when the next competition started.

After changing their clothes, the group got into the car and headed to the second competition venue.

Chapter Twenty-Seven: Gunfight

The second round of competition will still be about physical rather than mental abilities.

Live-action gunfight.

Wearing the special equipment provided by the production team, this equipment has a 'health bar'. Being hit by bullets in different locations deducts corresponding amounts of health. When the health bar reaches zero, bullets cannot be fired, and you must return to the 'base' for resupply. Only after resupplying can you enter the battlefield. After leaving the base, you cannot re-enter the base unless your health bar or ammo reaches zero.

Depleting the health bar of a player from another faction is considered to earn one point, which can be used to heal players from your own faction, but two points will be deducted.

Engaging in combat is prohibited at the base, and after resupplying at the base, one must not linger there; otherwise, points will be deducted.

You are given 30 bullets at a time. It is a semi-automatic rifle. After you run out of bullets, you must return to the base to resupply. Your faction will lose one point. Your health bar will not be zero after you run out of bullets. Resupplying after your health bar is zero will not deduct points.

Close combat is prohibited, and the distance between the two parties must not be less than two meters; otherwise, points will be deducted.

The use of martial arts, internal energy, and magic is prohibited.

The match ends when either side reaches 200 points, and all points are converted into the overall score at a ratio of 10 to 1.

In addition, when it is necessary to return to the base, you must return to the base quickly; otherwise, it will be treated as passive gameplay and points will be deducted.

Next came the selection of the "base".

The production team presented a simple map showing a base in each of the four cardinal directions. However, some bases had complex terrain, while others were directly exposed without cover, making them vulnerable to attack as soon as they emerged.

As usual, the group with the lowest score will be given preferential treatment. The Wakaba group will choose first, and the Hatoya group will choose last.

That's for sure. Although being targeted is very unfair, these kinds of variety shows are all about creating excitement and a close competition, so there's not much fairness to speak of. If you're better than others, you're bound to be targeted.

As expected, Ying Qin Pass's group ended up in a base with absolutely no cover, making them vulnerable to attack from the moment they stepped out. Outside, however, there were cover everywhere, making them easy targets for enemy camping.

Mu Nandong's face was gloomy... He could already imagine his miserable state.

As the one most likely to be targeted among those in first place, it's impossible for them not to be targeted.

"This is a bit tricky..."

It has to be said that the production team put a lot of effort into the show. The first round of the knowledge competition was actually quite a failure, directly creating a 32-point gap between the first and last place, which violated the common sense of variety shows. The production team suffered a loss and became more cautious afterward. During the balloon battle, they ensured that everyone got points. In the subsequent live gun battle, they also prohibited close combat and even set up a system where points were deducted when bullets ran out.

The most critical issue is... the bullet's rate of fire is too limited.

Even if Ying Qin's marksmanship was divine, he couldn't overcome the slow rate of fire of these bullets!

Someone like Yu Xietian, even if he can't dodge, can easily twist his body to let a non-fatal part of his body take the hit. And if he runs out of bullets, he'll lose points...

This significantly reduces the terrifying combat power of martial artists within the arena. Although the advantage is still substantial, even those who are not martial artists can now participate, unlike before when they were essentially doomed.

The 30-round limit... is too deadly.

Otherwise, Ying Qin Guan would definitely have survived and become a godlike player.

"We will inevitably be targeted... Let's do our best and leave the rest to fate."

This time, the production team didn't give everyone much time to discuss. After all, they had already imposed so many restrictions on the fighters, and the first-place fighter's base location was so bad. If they were to let the remaining fighters discuss tactics and team up to counter them, it would be a bit much.

The nineteenth revision is eager to begin.

"I will definitely come back this time..."

Shenxin raised the small blackboard.

"One slide tackle... and I'll be dead..."

The Nephalem whistled.

"I'm sorry, reciting poetry was my mistake, I'll do it again next time."

Ahe was very excited and encouraged her teammates.

"Keep it up, sometimes fools have all the luck!"

Wakaba rested her hand on her forehead.

"Who would call themselves a fool..."

Luo Shui looked proud.

"It's time to show you the King of Guns of the Royal Academy!"

Zhao Yunxian was deeply worried.

"That bullet won't hurt a lot if it hits someone..."

Mu Nandong remained indifferent and silent.

Jiu was also hinting to himself, seemingly trying to make himself explode.

"Sound card, sound card, sound card..."

Nocturne stepped into the base with a smile.

"As for guns, this woman has never actually used one before..."

Yu Xietian exhaled a breath of stale air.

"I can't count on the Nephalem... I have to rely on myself!"

Finally... it's the Qin Pass.

"Damn it! Who's my match?!"

"I am... the last gun of Nanqin!"

The match begins.

Shen Xin charged ahead with a fierce expression, heading straight for Ying Qin Pass's base, seemingly wanting to avenge his previous defeat. However, as soon as he showed his face, before he could even see anyone, a loud "click" rang out as the gun in his hand snapped open on his forehead.

The clothes and gun are integrated and sensor-activated. When the clothes' health reaches zero, the gun will also be unable to fire bullets, and you can only go back to resupply.

Ying Qin Guan stood casually in the center, even having the mind to wave to Shen Xin.

"That's it!"

Shen Xin was so angry his nose was crooked. He ran fiercely towards his base, planning to give Ying Qin Guan a good beating after resupplying.

"Chance!"

The Nephalem seized the opportunity and fired suddenly!

The shot was swift and insidious, and it wasn't aimed at Ying Qin Guan, but at Mu Nan Dong behind him. Mu Nan Dong couldn't dodge in time and was shot in the head.

As the Nephalem fired, Ying Qin Guan also fired a shot at him. However, the Nephalem reacted quickly, retreating to cover immediately after firing, causing Ying Qin Guan's shot to miss.

Luo Shui was overjoyed and exclaimed, "I know how to make spicy food!"

Then she aimed at Jiu Yi with a shot, but before she could fire, Ying Qin Guan, judging by the sound and anticipating her movement, shot her dead with a backhand shot the moment she peeked out. It was a complete headshot.

"As a complete outsider, to be honest, you get it."

For the sake of the sound card, he had even abandoned all shame, and Jiu Yi, hiding behind Ying Qin Guan, gave a crooked smile.

But before he could finish laughing, Ying Qin Guan suddenly dodged, and before Jiu Yi could react, a bullet was already in front of him. However, Jiu Yi's reaction speed was far superior to Mu Nan Dong's. Even though the bullet was almost upon him, he still managed to dodge it.
