Chapter 11 Incarceration Begins

The reporting date for Imperial Capital Star Warrior University was September 1st, and the official start of classes was September 5th.

Jiang Xiao, however, due to the "Martial Arts Shield Recruitment" incident, disrupted school order and was placed in confinement for 72 hours, only being released on the morning of September 4th.

That is to say, tomorrow is the official start of school...

Jiang Xiao never dreamed that his days of studying at Imperial Capital Star Warrior University would begin with imprisonment.

During the three days Jiang Xiao was away, his dormitory was bombarded in various ways. Many people came, hoping to curry favor with Jiang Xiao and join the 16th-grade championship team, but all failed.

Helpless, some people turned to Han Jiangxue and Xia Yan.

The two girls did not agree to anyone's request, especially Han Jiangxue, whose personality was already difficult to get along with, and she didn't give anyone a pleasant look.

In the past three days, due to the waves of self-recommendations, which annoyed Han Jiangxue and even began to disrupt her normal life, she became increasingly cold, and anyone could feel the aura that rejected people thousands of miles away.

But still, some people planned to try their luck, whether they really had the strength or were trying to latch onto a powerful figure, they were all rejected by Han Jiangxue.

Song Chunxi watched all of this and, after confirming that Han Jiangxue was not pretending, not using "playing hard to get," she mobilized her subordinates to create a good living environment for Han Jiangxue.

With Song Chunxi's help, Han Jiangxue's life finally became much quieter. Until now, Song Chunxi hadn't mentioned the World League at the end of the next semester to Han Jiangxue, but Han Jiangxue was well aware of her goodwill.

As a Star Warrior, being able to represent the country and participate in the World League was supreme glory. To be honest, Han Jiangxue was a little tempted, so she didn't reject Song Chunxi's kindness.

The two of them came to pick up Jiang Xiao from prison together.

Jiang Xiao could see some things from this, at least he could see Han Jiangxue's intentions.

Little Jiangxue really had lofty ambitions. She wanted to go to war with the world just as a freshman. It seemed that her unseen parents would be very proud.

But then again, Han Jiangxue's idea wasn't that difficult to achieve.

After all, she was a Galaxy Stage king. Most of the geniuses fighting the world were also in this Galaxy Stage. Even if Han Jiangxue's star power was a little less than her opponents, she wasn't bad in terms of the number of star slots and physical fitness.

Once Han Jiangxue passed the Galaxy Stage hurdle, she would be fully qualified to participate. Not only qualified, but even her output might be among the top!

Since she had such ambitions, Jiang Xiao would never hold her back.

Jiang Xiao thought to himself: Next semester, I'm going on a public-funded trip abroad...

...

The trio ignored Gu Shian, who was puffing out clouds of smoke.

At Minister Song's invitation, Jiang Xiao was taken directly back to Apartment Building 11 by the two women.

This was a luxurious two-person dormitory, and Han Jiangxue's bedroom had a separate bathroom.

And her daily necessities were relatively complete. There were bath liquids, shampoos, and everything else. Jiang Xiao took a comfortable shower here.

Washed clean, scented nicely.

Jiang Xiao hummed a little tune, opened a crack in the door, and secretly peeked out.

No one?

My abs are very good-looking, is no one really peeking?

Jiang Xiao opened the bathroom door wider again, poked his head out, and looked around, only to find a stool placed at the door with a set of new clothes on it.

Jiang Xiao changed into a set of clothes, still a loose short-sleeved shirt and loose capri pants, and walked out in flip-flops.

He hoped that Han Jiangxue hadn't frozen his two roommates when she went to his apartment building to get his clothes.

Han Jiangxue's bedroom was really clean and simple, not pink or flowery, and there were no plush toys. It was impossible to find any trace of a young girl.

On the bedside table was a lamp and "The Complete Book of the Meta-Universe."

Jiang Xiao raised his eyebrows, turned around and walked out.

There wasn't a single person in the living room?

Wow... what did these two girls go do?

You threw me into your female dormitory, is that appropriate?

Jiang Xiao took two steps before he felt someone moving in the distance. He looked to the left and saw Han Jiangxue and Song Chunxi sitting on either side of the exquisite glass table on the balcony. There was also a teapot, several white porcelain teacups, and two plates of dried fruit on the table.

Tsk tsk... they really know how to enjoy themselves.

Song Chunxi also noticed Jiang Xiao. She turned her head, pinched a hazelnut with two fingers, and smiled at Jiang Xiao.

*Crack.*

The hazelnut, which hadn't even been opened, was easily crushed by Song Chunxi. She lightly twisted her fingertips, and pieces of broken shell fell. She picked up the nut, threw it into her mouth, chewed, and then picked up the teacup, looking leisurely.

"Cooling off?" Jiang Xiao walked onto the balcony and looked into the distance, following Han Jiangxue's gaze.

The entire apartment building was surrounded by trees, with drooping branches, lush and green, making people feel refreshed.

A few beams of sunlight passed through the dense leaves and shone on the two of them, leaving patches of light and shadow on their bodies.

Jiang Xiao propped himself up on the stone railing of the balcony, leaned out, and looked to the left, saying, "These big trees are really great, saving us from having to use parasols. But you two should move around from time to time, don't let the sun give you spots on your fair legs..."

Song Chunxi: "Cough, cough..."

Minister Song, who was drinking tea, seemed to be choked.

Obviously, she wasn't used to Jiang Xiao's style yet.

And after hearing Jiang Xiao's words, Song Chunxi really moved her legs.

"Sit." Han Jiangxue glared at Jiang Xiao unhappily, pushed a small teacup to the other side of the glass table, and poured a cup of tea for Jiang Xiao.

Jiang Xiao sat on the stool, grabbed a few raisins, and said, "What did you bring me here for? What are your instructions?"

Han Jiangxue silently looked at Jiang Xiao and said, "I've decided, I'm going to participate in the competition."

Jiang Xiao ate the raisins and said, "Ah, that's a good thing, I support you."

Han Jiangxue continued, "Choosing to participate in the competition will take a lot of time to work with Song Chunxi's team and do tasks together. This will have an impact on our team."

Jiang Xiao was amused and said, "What impact? There are no university honor competitions for freshmen and sophomores. You only have a chance to participate when you're a junior or senior. By that time, you'll have already sent Senior Song away, so it won't delay anything."

Song Chunxi: ???

Although that was the truth, something felt wrong.

Jiang Xiao continued, "What's more, you'll learn from her for a year, and then come back to lead us in your sophomore year. Isn't that perfect?"

Song Chunxi was delighted. It seemed that this little guy supported his sister's choice. This put Song Chunxi at ease. Through contact, she could see that Jiang Xiao held a very important place in Han Jiangxue's heart.

Song Chunxi interjected, "You can continue your normal classes and team up to complete your academic tasks. I will coordinate the time and try not to delay your studies, but... Xiao Xue will have to work a little harder."

Han Jiangxue said, "It's okay, I want to participate in the competition, so I should bear all of this."

Jiang Xiao smiled and said, "If Han Jiangxue is really selected, I was thinking... can I go with her on a trip... to participate in the competition?"

Song Chunxi looked shocked: "You want to participate in the World Cup? Team or solo?"

Jiang Xiao waved his hands repeatedly: "No, no, I mean, can I accompany her to participate in the competition, do logistical support work, and broaden my horizons?"

Song Chunxi looked embarrassed: "This..."

Han Jiangxue interrupted, "We'll talk about it later, I'm not sure if I'll be selected."

Sensing that the atmosphere was a little awkward, Song Chunxi said, "By the way, tomorrow is September 5th, are you ready for the combat mission at the beginning of the school year?"

Jiang Xiao curled his lips and said, "Fake military training?"

Song Chunxi nodded and said, "I know you're very strong, but you still have to be extra careful, especially since your team only has 3-5 people, and they're all your classmates. This means that you will be completing the mission with 3-5 support members..."

Speaking of this, a trace of worry flashed in Song Chunxi's bright eyes: "You know the location of the 'fake military training', right?"

"Ah," Jiang Xiao said, "I know, Black Rock Mountain. The legendary suffering of Black Rock Mountain, the welcome ceremony from China's highest institution of higher learning to the chosen ones, this tradition is good, it's more interesting than real military training..."

Song Chunxi said, "There are all gold-level creatures there. Don't be reckless. Stay close to your mentor and don't leave his line of sight."

Jiang Xiao asked curiously, "Aren't there also bronze-level Little Fire Mud?"

Song Chunxi couldn't help but smile and rolled her eyes at Jiang Xiao, crushed a hazelnut shell, gently twisted it, and scattered pieces of the shell on the table. She casually flicked the nut into the air: "How could that kind of thing pose a threat to people? If you're really defeated by them, I advise you to drop out of school now."

Jiang Xiao didn't hear anything. He was just watching the hazelnut falling in a parabola, his heart struggling wildly.

This hazelnut was obviously aimed at him,

And Han Jiangxue was sitting next to him, looking at everything with a faint gaze,

So...

Catch it, or not?

Eat it, or not?

That is the question!
