Chapter 142: Olympic Expedition

Chapter 142: Olympic Expedition
The banquet started in the early morning and lasted until midnight.

When the party was over and the guests left, the entire villa was left with only loneliness and debris on the ground.

The cleaners lowered their heads to clean up the stains and garbage. The Chu Yi family stayed for more than an hour before returning home under the reluctant gaze of the hostess.

Generally speaking, after taking out a treasure like the peaches, the roads on the first night are too easy to travel. Who knows if the guests at the banquet have really left? What if they are lying in ambush on the road, waiting for Chu Yi's family to be left alone?

So Xu Ping originally wanted to let them stay for one night, but the couple felt that it was not appropriate and finally refused after much deliberation.

As for what Xu Ping was worried about, it did not happen along the way. The family of three drove back home safely on the busy main road.

If we can be attacked here, it only means that the security personnel in the capital are a bunch of people who just want to do nothing.

After returning home, Chu Yi entered the dream as usual and fought monsters all night.

When I woke up the next day, I saw two more text messages on my phone.

They were all sent by the principal, asking him to come to school immediately after seeing the text message.

Maybe because he didn’t reply, I sent another message ten minutes ago.

Chu Yi replied with a message "Received" while quickly washing up.

After cleaning up, he didn't even have time to eat breakfast. He took two pieces of bread and a bottle of milk, then rode his bike to school.

In fact, if you ride the Little White Dragon, you can arrive in two or three minutes.

However, there is a pet flying restriction order in Beijing. Unless you hold a flying pet driver's license, you are not allowed to take off.

This certificate can only be obtained after the age of 18, so Chu Yi has to wait another two years.

As for land pets, they can be taken for walks on the sidewalk, but are not allowed to go on the road and walk shoulder to shoulder with cars, so the white dragon horse form of Xiaobailong is also useless.

Fortunately, Chu Yi pedaled his bike fast enough and arrived at school in about ten minutes.

Rushing into conference room 302, Chu Yi discovered that the principal and several people who did not look like school staff were sitting inside.

"Here I am." Hong Luan waved immediately after seeing Chu Yi. After Chu Yi approached, he spread his hands and said to a slightly fat middle-aged man beside him, "This is Liu Jianming, the deputy leader of the Chinese Youth Olympic Team."

"Hello, Team Leader Liu." Chu Yi nodded and greeted him.

"Just call me Captain Liu." Liu Jianming responded with a smile, "I'm here to tell you a good news. You've been selected for the National Youth Beast Taming Team!"

Chu Yi immediately pretended to smile excitedly: "That's great."

In fact, he was not surprised at all. With his invincible strength in the high school entrance examination, it would be strange if he was not selected.

"Now that you've become a national team player, you should stop being so careless in what you say and do. You should just put up with some things if you can," he said.

Hong Luan knew this kid's temper very well. Although he had spent a lot of time and effort on this matter before, he still reminded him tirelessly.

Chu Yi didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Don't worry, Principal, how can I not understand such a serious matter?"

Hong Luan said with a straight face: "It's good that you know."

Liu Jianming tried to smooth things over: "Don't be so serious. I've heard about Chu Yi's deeds a long time ago, and I also know his character. It can be said that he hates evil and is a kind person. No matter how you look at him, he is a good child. Even if he really made some minor mistakes, it can be forgiven."

When Hong Luan heard this, he quickly stopped her: "Don't praise this kid. If you don't praise him, he still knows his last name. If you praise him, his tail will be lifted up to the sky."

"How could I be so naughty?" Chu Yi felt very wronged.

Hong Luan coughed lightly and said, "It's really not that exaggerated. I'm just saying this to remind you not to get carried away."

After arguing for a long time, Liu Jianming took Chu Yi away from Hong Luan.

On the way to the training base, Liu Jianming introduced Chu Yi: "This time the Youth Olympic team has more than 400 people, and you are one of the few who can participate directly without audition.

With your ability, you are definitely capable of taking on this responsibility, but you should still follow the team leader's arrangements for the specific schedule. Don't make the mistake of individual heroism, understand?"

"Understood." Chu Yi nodded seriously.

Facing Captain Liu, whom he was not very familiar with, Chu Yi was not as cheeky as he was when facing Hong Luan.

Liu Jianming was also very satisfied with Chu Yi's attitude. He believed that one should be so serious when dealing with serious matters, which would be a good thing for everyone.

"The national team has always attached great importance to discipline, so after joining the team this time, we will have a week-long military training. All personnel will be assembled in three days. You came early, so you can take advantage of the three days without training tasks to familiarize yourself with the environment of the base."

The vehicle gradually slowed down and it seemed that it was almost there.

Liu Jianming's words also made Chu Yi's heart skip a beat.

If it is military training, there will definitely be an instructor.

In order to establish his own prestige, the instructor will definitely take action against the troublemakers in the team first. After giving them a severe beating, others will not dare to oppose him.

So who among the contestants this time is the most troublesome?

Chu Yi looked in the mirror and had a bad feeling in his heart.

After arriving at the training base, Chu Yi was arranged into a four-person dormitory.

The environment is not that good, but at least the toilet is quite clean, there is air conditioning and fan, and the bed is quite soft.

The most important point is that the network signal is five bars.

After making the bed, the first thing Chu Yi did was to call his mother:
"Hey mom... the principal has told you, that's good... I've already arrived at the training base, they said I'll be training for a week before going to France... I know, I definitely won't argue with the instructor... Don't worry, I will take good care of myself, I'm already sixteen years old... Okay, that's it, bye."

The principal told his mother about his participation in the competition in advance, which saved him a lot of effort.

Chu Yi opened Weibo when he had nothing to do.

The song "Canon" that I gave to Lin Siyao yesterday was posted on Weibo for a day, and the response was quite strong, which also helped improve my reputation a lot.

Unfortunately, if this is the case, then the gold-level achievement of [Condemned by Thousands of People] cannot be completed.

But Chu Yi is not a fool. He would not deliberately ruin his reputation for the sake of achievement.

The good news is that I’m on the trending search again today, which brings the achievement of [Millions of Fans] one step closer to the gold level.

As for the reason for becoming a hot topic, it was because of the direct qualification list for the Youth Olympic Games.

For those players who are obviously stronger than others, the national team will announce the list of players as soon as possible, which can be regarded as the backbone of this competition.

Star players like Chu Yi, Ji Chen and Li Ming are all on the list.

If it weren't for the birthday party yesterday, Chu Yi would have been ridiculed and mocked by netizens, saying that he has such bad morals, how could he have a direct pass to the national team?

But the timing was perfect. The list was released just as Chu Yi's reputation improved, saving him from a lot of online verbal battles...

The three days passed quickly. Chu Yi rarely went out of the base except for meal times.

He either trains in bed or checks his phone when he's tired. This is not much different from his state at home.

Of course, he wasn't just browsing his phone to look at useless entertainment content, he was more concerned about the news about the emperor-level pet eggs.

Pet eggs of this level will definitely cause a sensation once they appear in the world, and it will not be difficult for them to become a hot search worldwide.

Now that he has the peaches in his hand, if he wants, it is very likely that he can exchange them for an emperor-level pet egg.

After all, not every pet with emperor bloodline can evolve into an emperor-level pet, but as long as you eat the peaches, you will definitely be able to extend your lifespan by sixty years.

For young people, the value of peaches is definitely not that great, far less than an emperor's pet egg with unlimited potential.

But for those old Dengs who are about to die, ten eggs of the emperor's pet beasts are not as good as one peach.

As long as he reveals a little intention to trade, many people will probably come to him with the emperor's pet eggs and ask him to trade.

But the problem now is that he really doesn't know where to offer the reward.

You can't just hold a loud speaker and shout to the world: I want to trade peaches for the emperor's pet beast eggs, right?
Isn’t that the same as writing the words “Come and grab me” on your face?

On the other hand, he had not yet decided what attributes to cultivate for his third pet.

With Monkey King and Little White Dragon, we now have both melee and ranged damage output.

If we consider the situation of fighting together, he is currently lacking an auxiliary pet that can enhance the endurance of the two big mana consumers in front.

However, auxiliary pets have always been the rarest type, especially auxiliary pets with imperial bloodline, which are even rarer than phoenix feathers and unicorn horns.

Not to mention catching one, he hasn't even found any relevant information yet.

Therefore, this transaction intention can only be put on hold for the time being.

"Oh, I'm really worried."

Chu Yi closed his phone, feeling miserable but unable to express himself.

Where can I find a suitable auxiliary pet?
After several days of selection and competition, all 523 athletes participating in the Youth Olympics have been selected.

According to netizens' analysis, the most optimistic scenario this time is that they can bring back about 40 gold medals.

However, in the most prestigious individual and team competitions, it is already very good to be able to enter the top three.

Anyway, in the previous few sessions, the best result of this kind of undifferentiated event was just a silver medal, and the gap from the world's first place can be said to be quite obvious. I wonder if we can achieve a breakthrough this time.

Of course, these are not things the players need to worry about for the time being.

When everyone gathered at the training base, military training became their first goal.

On the first day of military training, the assembly whistle sounded at 6:30

Chief Instructor Lei Zheng gave a message in the national team group last night, asking everyone to dress neatly and gather on the playground within five minutes after hearing the assembly whistle. There will be punishment for being late.

Although Instructor Lei didn't say what the punishment would be, you could tell it would be severe from the malicious expression he made afterwards.

Chu Yi had no intention of trying this new thing anyway, so he didn't stay up late at night and went to bed early.

Ever since he contracted the Old Days Syndrome, he couldn't hear any sounds from the outside world when he was dreaming.

It’s okay at school and at home, as his parents and classmates can help wake him up from his dreams.

Now that we're at the base, only Monkey Brother and the others can help with this.

So when he went to bed at night, Chu Yi did not pull Monkey King and Little White Dragon into his dreams.

As soon as Chu Yi woke up at the morning assembly whistle, Xiao Bailong released electric shock and shocked him so much that he jumped up from the bed.

"Damn it, do you have to be so cruel?!"

Chu Yi looked at the little white dragon below, not knowing whether to say "MMP" or not.

Little White Dragon let out an innocent cry: "Didn't you say you would shock me hard when you heard the whistle?"

Chu Yi opened his mouth, but finally realized that he really couldn't blame Xiao Bailong, so he could only swallow this loss in silence.

After quickly washing up, Chu Yi grabbed the training suit that he had just received last night and rushed into the playground.

Twelve instructors, including Chief Instructor Lei, were already standing on the playground in their tight uniforms.

It was still dark, and their eyes were like glowing wolves in the darkness, looking forward to the latecomers.

For them who often go to various universities for military training, this kind of time of setting rules is their favorite. I wonder how many troublemakers will fall into their hands this time.

"five four three two one!"

The five-minute assembly time passed in a flash. When Instructor Lei's countdown ended, there were still three boys left on the playground, slowly heading towards the main group.

"Very good. Only three students violated the rules on the first day. This is worthy of praise."

Instructor Lei had a smile on his face, but everyone had already started mourning for the three unlucky guys.

"Those three boys, don't go back to the team yet. Start running ten laps around the playground immediately. The one who finishes first will go back to the team, and the second and third will run ten laps next!" Instructor Lei held the microphone and gave orders loudly.

The playground of the training base is very large, with one lap being at least two kilometers long.

Ten laps equals twenty kilometers.

Although for the contestants, who are all low-level beastmasters, running twenty kilometers is nothing.

But if it is a competitive full-speed run, it is a different story.

Even if they run at full speed, they will be exhausted to death in less than ten kilometers.

And the most frustrating thing is that if you run slowly you have to add ten more laps.

The three boys no longer had any of the leisure they had before and immediately started running as fast as they could.

"Everyone, stand still and take a good look at those three boys. This is what happens when you don't follow the rules!"

Instructor Lei still had a smile on his face, and Chu Yi, who was sitting in the back row, could see his character, a complete smiling tiger!

"We have plenty of time. I have a whole week to train you. If you are dissatisfied, you can speak up now and give me your opinions. I will accept them all with an open mind."

Instructor Lei said this with a kind look in his eyes, but not a single one of the 500 people in front of him farted.

"Why are the boys so bloodless? Last time, I said the same thing, but more than a dozen boys stood up."

Instructor Lei looked at the team that was as obedient as chicks and shook his head in disappointment.
