Chapter 528: Chapter 527: The First Unlucky One to Be Eliminated

Shao Zifeng couldn’t help but twitch his lips as he looked at the young man not far away.

A random mention of Bin City University equals acquaintance.

Really damn thrilling.

"Beibei!"

However, now was not the time to think about these things. As the young man began to doubt his identity, Beibei started to struggle with control over the illusion.

After all, creating this kind of illusion was a matter of applying abilities and skills, rather than using a more stable structure.

The priority now was to figure out a way to stabilize that guy. With this in mind, Shao Zifeng pointed to his own face with his right hand, "Take another look, I really am from Bin City University."

In the flickering firelight, the dark ’Deceiver’s Ring’ emitted a shimmering glow that kept warping and changing on the abstract jack-o’-lantern.

The tall young man’s gaze was quickly attracted by the Deceiver’s Ring. His scrutinizing look turned hazy, his face gradually softened, and his mouth opened and closed as if he wanted to say something.

"I, I get it now... you’re the new one, right?"

"Right."

Shao Zifeng snapped his fingers, feeling a sigh of relief inside.

Thank goodness for the ’Deceiver’s Ring’; otherwise, he would have given himself away.

The tall young man sat down by the campfire with an apologetic smile, "I’m really sorry about just now. Our captain had said something about kicking that loser Xiang Nan off the team, and I totally forgot."

"You!" Xiang Nan’s face instantly flashed with anger at the words, but before he could erupt, Shao Zifeng shook his head at him.

Shao Zifeng was also displeased but still agreed, "No problem, it’s good to be cautious in the wild."

"Um... that," the tall young man stared directly at the ’roasted meat’ in Shao Zifeng’s hand, swallowing his saliva with difficulty.

Shao Zifeng held up the ’roasted meat’ in his hand and offered it with a harmless smile, "Just finished roasting, want some?"

"Thanks, bro."

The tall young man grabbed the roast, the tempting aroma preventing him from thinking too much, as he took big bites of the golden roast seabird.

The Swift Wind Wolf lay beside him, looking up at its master with a whimpering tremble, saliva dripping continuously from its mouth.

"????"

At that moment, a series of question marks floated across the live stream.

Everyone watching the live feed was stunned at the scene because, in their eyes, the young man was chomping on wood, yet the satisfaction on his face was as if he was savoring delicacies.

"Although I don’t know what happened, I’m getting hungry..."

"Damn, turns out watching someone chew on wood can make you hungry, I can’t take it, I’m going to order takeout."

"I think the atmosphere is getting even weirder, just like in weird novels where scholars meet ghosts eating all sorts of bizarre things."

"Stop it; the man has already tucked his head into the quilt."

On the unnamed island, Xiang Nan and the others were also dumbfounded. Hu Shiwu stuttered, "C-captain, what is he doing...?"

"Shh."

Shao Zifeng made a silencing gesture at him, watching with glee at the young man nibbling on the wood. Technically, he wasn’t actually chewing on wood, he was just holding it and blissfully biting the air. The scene looked incredibly eerie no matter how one saw it.

So far, the plan had gone smoothly. He stretched out his hand to roast it over the fire, and the dark ring reflected the firelight, "Brother, you haven’t introduced yourself yet, I just joined the university team and still don’t know who you are?"

The tall young man paused. He didn’t really want to answer, but something about Shao Zifeng made him feel inclined to share, "I am Chu Qing from Liaodong Institute of Technology."

Shao Zifeng seized the moment, "Oh, brother Chu Qing, I think I’ve heard the captain mention you. By the way, where are your teammates? Why are you all alone?"

Chu Qing took another two bites of air, his face showing embarrassment, "Sigh, I’m not afraid of you laughing at me, but I got separated from my teammates when I jumped from the plane. I didn’t have a flying beast and went straight into the sea where I lost consciousness, and when I woke up, I was on this island."

Shao Zifeng nodded, extracting useful information from his words.

Up to this point, one thing he had guessed wrong was that as long as you had the courage to jump off the plane, even if you’re injured, you wouldn’t be eliminated.

Chu Qing must have been unconscious when he jumped from the plane and was rescued by someone who then treated his wounds before bringing him to this island. Otherwise, under normal circumstances, he couldn’t have appeared on the island unharmed while unconscious.

If that’s the case, then there are more people within this sea area than I thought.

"Have you encountered any other people during this time?" Following Shao Zifeng’s lead, Chu Qing spilled everything he knew, stopping just short of revealing the color of his underwear. It was a pity that the useful information was scarce.

Shao Zifeng stood up and looked at Chu Qing, a contemplative expression on his face.

"Captain..."

Seeing Shao Zifeng in silence, Xiang Nan couldn’t help but call out to him.

"Oh, I was just thinking about something." Shao Zifeng came back to his senses and pinched the bridge of his nose, feeling somewhat weary after using the ’Deceiver’s Ring’: "Actually, you guys can help me think it through."

Xiang Nan unhesitatingly said, "You just say the word, Captain."

Shao Zifeng pointed at Chu Qing, "What do you say, how can we eliminate him?"

After hearing Shao Zifeng’s words, they exchanged glances. According to the methods he had deduced earlier for passing the competition, ’elimination’ was one of them. However, these were still just speculations without any set standards.

Li Yiren thought for a while, raised her small hand tentatively, and said, "How about we beat him up?"

"That..." Shao Zifeng was somewhat tempted, but as his gaze passed over two red dots in the night sky, he hesitantly added, "We’re all classmates, that doesn’t seem too nice, does it?"

"I think it’s doable." Xiang Nan was still holding a grudge over Chu Qing calling him trash earlier.

Hu Shiwu, with excitement gleaming in his eyes, rubbed his hands together and said, "I think Yiren’s idea is good. Just right, I was just about to..."

"Cough!"

Li Yiren and the other two gave a loud cough to interrupt Hu Shiwu.

Hu Shiwu shrank his neck and cast a glance at Xiang Nan while murmuring softly, "Or how about we throw him back into the sea?"

Shao Zifeng thought it over and finally decided, "Forget it, after all, we are classmates. Let’s let him leave with some dignity."

"Beibei." Shao Zifeng winked at the Mirage Kitty.

"Bei?"

The Mirage Kitty looked puzzled and blinked back, its adorable expression enough to melt anyone’s heart.

"Cough, I mean, give him something stimulating!"

"Bei!"

The Mirage Kitty’s spirits lifted, and its light blue eyes suddenly radiated invisible ripples.

Chu Qing, who had been contentedly munching on air, tensed up as he looked at the stick in his hands, his expression turning wonderfully vivid.

"Toad... how could it be a toad!!"

"Bleugh!"

After a brief silence, Chu Qing suddenly threw away the stick like a madman and began vomiting on the ground.

But having been hungry all day, there was nothing in his stomach, and soon his body started convulsing as if he was about to faint from exhaustion.

Shao Zifeng watched with some confusion. Could he have guessed wrong?

Just as he was about to tell the Mirage Kitty to stop, a voice suddenly echoed from the distant night sky.

"Su City University successfully eliminates one person, scoring one point. Accumulate five points to qualify for advancement."

"Please cease all hostile actions now and wait for the rescue team to reach the eliminated individual."

...

In the monitoring hall at the imperial capital, the large screen clearly displayed the scene on the island.

Qin Zhenbei sat with his legs on the table in front of him, rubbing his rugged beard: "This kid is truly cunning. I thought the first unlucky one to be eliminated would take days..."
