Chapter 406: Chapter 181: Shura and Snow
“Okay.” A single word stopped Bing Su’s crying immediately.
“You, you agreed?”
“Mhm.” If the head of external affairs in her own club was being bullied, it was natural for her to step in.
Bing Su, thrilled, rushed forward to hug Lu Qingxue, but a cold, icy sword scabbard lightly resting on her shoulder stopped her midway.
…
The waiter at the Virtual Cabin Training Hall quickly noticed the recently returned Bing Su, now accompanied by a frosty woman dressed in clothes as white as snow.
She actually brought Lu Qingxue!
Were they here to reclaim their dignity? The surprised waiters exchanged glances as they watched the two head straight for the advanced training room.
Bing Su looked worriedly at the approaching training room.
She was particularly worried that the opponent called Shura would go offline.
That would mean Lu Qingxue had made a wasted trip.
Moreover, only Lu Qingxue knew about this matter, considering no one else knew her internal network ID.
After much thought, Bing Su could only seek help from the Swordsmanship Club president, the undefeated Valkyrie.
The two simultaneously entered the advanced training room, and the door closed behind them.
Conversation unfolded inside the room.
“Senior Sister Qingxue, which mecha body are you using?” Bing Su asked, full of anticipation.
Lu Qingxue, gazing at the now-opened Virtual Cabin with her head still down, replied, “Mulan.”
After a pause, she added, “It’s the only mecha I’ve used.”
This puzzled the otherwise confident Bing Su. Hadn’t her senior sister been invited to the Mecha Club before?
How could it be that she had only ever used the fourth Generation Mulan mecha body?
What Bing Su didn’t realize was that this was only an invite by Renault for a swordmanship trial, merely an experiment to see how sword dao could be integrated into mecha combat.
Lu Qingxue had just perfectly replicated the moves using the Coordination Device; her understanding of mecha might not even match Bing Su, who had been immersed in the Battle Net for years.
But now the Virtual Cabin had closed.
Seeing her senior sister’s straightforward manner boosted Bing Su’s confidence. In her heart, every legend about the Valkyrie had only one description — invincible.
Just as a similarly unranked new character “Ice” appeared, Mu Fan had just returned from the bathroom, unable to wait for the next match due to overeating the day before.
Touching his forehead cooled by the water, he rubbed his relieved stomach and re-entered the network for combat.
Learning from his previous two experiences, he was determined not to lose this time.
Player “Shura” reappeared.
As Mu Fan prepared to enter the auto-matching scene, a notification sound came from nowhere and a holographic window popped up in front of him.
Player “Ice” wants to add you as a friend, accept?
Add as a friend? Does this system even have this function?
“Friendship is a system auxiliary function and can be set through the system elf,” the dry system voice explained, evidently routine advice for a new feature.
Without thinking, Mu Fan replied, “No.”
“Friend request from the stranger ‘Ice’ declined.”
Probably added the wrong person, he thought. He had just registered this account; how could anyone know him, and Mu Fan had no intention of sharing his ID, which was intended solely for private training.
Thus, Mu Fan concentrated and prepared to fight again, his spirit ignited.
You have to stand up from where you fall!
Player “Ice” wants to add you as a friend, accept?
Another prompt sounded, and Mu Fan frowned and chose “No” again.
A newly applied Virtual Cabin had Bing Su in the PO Battle Network, nervously watching the new, expressionless beginner beside her.
Lu Qingxue, hoping not to be recognized, had not only avoided using her previous account from the first mecha training room but had also randomized a new character that drastically differed in appearance from her actual face, even slightly shortening her stature and changing her aloof goddess demeanor to that of a bland girl.
As she saw “Shura” repeatedly reject her, Lu Qingxue merely frowned slightly before continuing with the requests.
Once, twice, three times…
As Bing Su watched Lu Qingxue maintain that pose with almost no movement, her heart leaped to her throat. What was going on?
Finally, at the fifth attempt, Mu Fan could hardly stand the incessant friend requests anymore.
Accepted!
Player “Ice” has become your friend.
Hearing this system prompt, Mu Fan felt a sense of relief inside. At least he wouldn’t have to deal with this annoying harassment anymore.
“Your friend [Qingxue] has requested a match. Do you want to start?”
A ding sound echoed, another system alert. Mu Fan couldn’t take it anymore and let out a loud yell, “Ah!!”
Decline!
“Your friend [Qingxue] has requested a match. Do you want to start?”
The persistent reminder seemed to become addicted to challenging Mu Fan.
On the other side, Lu Qingxue, not tired at all, kept clicking the request button over and over again.
She had a clear purpose for coming in: to compete and then crush the opponent.
Until this purpose was achieved, all actions were a form of training.
It had to be said that this player named [Qingxue]’s persistent attitude finally influenced Mu Fan.
Unable to find the button to block his friend, he did see the option to delete a friend and decided to ask before deleting this friend.
[Shura: Have you got the wrong person?]
[Qingxue: No, it’s you.]
[Shura: What do you mean it’s me?]
[Qingxue: To battle and then crush you.]
Mu Fan’s finger hovered over the screen, a vein throbbing on his forehead.
He couldn’t believe it–0 wins, 1 draw, 1 loss, and now someone was literally knocking at his door for a battle!
And the meaning in the opponent’s words was very clear–it wasn’t just to defeat, but to crush!
To talk about crushing him right from the start?
To completely demolish him?
A stranger directly saying they wanted to step on his face made even the good-natured Mu Fan unable to bear it.
[Shura: Heh.]
This time the opponent didn’t reply but sent another battle request.
Mu Fan directly chose yes.
The battle between [Shura] and [Qingxue] was about to begin. Do you want to make the room public?
No!
Over there, Bing Su, excited to watch the battle, saw Lu Qingxue sign that the battle was ready to start.
But when Lu Qingxue flatly replied, “He refused to open it,” it instantly drove Bing Su crazy. This move by the opponent was simply too ruthless.
Bing Su could only say, with intense emotion, that she wanted to smash the opponent thoroughly.
The countdown began: 9, 8, 7…
The “No Rank” girl, Lu Qingxue, nodded and transformed into a streak of white light, disappearing; she didn’t need to prepare, the Fifth Generation Mecha Mulan was a basic model.
Mu Fan, however, wasn’t as decisive as his opponent.
Because that terribly annoying system again gave that super annoying option.
Player [Shura] please choose one of the following three mecha bodies for combat:
Fourth Generation Machine [Bone Fossil]
Fourth Generation Machine [Prototype Iron Ball]
Fourth Generation Machine [Wild Boar]
Now thinking back to those two bizarre encounters before, he felt powerless.
One was an ostrich with degraded wings, and the other was an iron ball without legs. If it hadn’t been for his previous opponent getting thrown off rhythm by his sudden charge, and stupidly engaging in close combat, he probably wouldn’t have even had a chance to tie.
But at least the iron ball had two arms…
Mu Fan, conflicted, touched his chin. The countdown was almost over; he had to make a choice. If he ended up with Bone Fossil, he’d cry to death.

Mu Fan’s finger hesitated just before touching it. After all, his goal was to train!
Let’s see what this [Wild Boar] is all about?
If it really is a pig, he’d resign himself to it and from now on choose mecha based solely on the name.
Player [Shura] chose the Fourth Generation Mecha [Wild Boar].
Everything around him turned dark as Mu Fan entered the battle map.
