Chapter 448 The 2nd Paper Flying Chicken Competition
After Ba Che died, its body also could not escape the fate of being salvaged and recycled.
Just like Osser, after the elemental power was absorbed by the Edgeless Sword, the elemental power content of its corpse was greatly reduced.
Fortunately, the medicinal value of these flesh and blood is not low. After removing the elemental power, it can be considered a great tonic and is still useful.
"By the way, little yellow hair, I have a question for you."
The next day after returning from the celebration banquet at Qun Yu Pavilion, Liu Bai couldn't help but say to Ying while having breakfast.
"what is the problem?"
Ying stopped slurping noodles and looked up at Liu Bai.
Paimeng, who was standing by, was drinking noodle soup from a bowl that was bigger than her head. After hearing Liu Bai's words, she raised her head curiously.
"Are you a boy?"
Liu Bai looked Ying up and down, and then couldn't help but ask her for confirmation.
"?"
Ying suddenly felt that the noodles in the bowl were not fragrant anymore.
She looked down at her chest, then spoke with some confidence.
"Of course I'm not a man!"
After saying that, Ying puffed out her chest somewhat proudly.
Although hers was not very big, it was a pity that she was the only one among the four people in the whole room.
"Then how do you prove it?"
Liu Bai was a little confused by Ying's sudden arrogant attitude, but he continued to ask.
"???"
"Why should I prove that I'm not a man?"
Ying was even more confused. It was the first time she saw someone doubt her gender.
Come on, don’t I look cute and pretty?
"But I always feel that you should be a man... I always feel that something is wrong when the couple I'm supporting suddenly becomes a lesbian..."
Liu Bai said something in distress that Ying couldn't understand.
After thinking for a long time, Liu Bai suddenly came up with a good idea.
"Little yellow-haired boy, how about I turn you into a boy?"
"Ah~ I don't want to, go find Paimon!"
Hearing Liu Bai's suggestion, Ying immediately shrank his neck and threw the question to Paimeng next to him.
"..."
"Ah? Paimon doesn't want that!"
Paimon gulped down the soup in the bowl, then quickly shook his head to refuse.
With Ying's refusal, the matter had to be left unresolved, but Liu Bai felt somewhat regretful.
Two days passed like this, and it was the day before the Sea Lantern Festival.
Considering that the first Paper Flying Chicken Contest last year was quite popular and that new sponsorship was obtained this year, Hu Tao decided to hold the second Paper Flying Chicken Contest.
Unfortunately, the defending champion of the Paper Flying Chicken Competition does not plan to participate this year. After all, it is a bit bullying for her, a demon god, to participate in such a competition.
And if she cheated secretly, she would have no problem making the paper plane fly around Teyvat.
Similarly, Ruoli, who tried to compete for the championship last year, was busy building her own palace this year and didn't even have to come back for the Lantern Festival, so she did not participate in this year's Paper Flying Chicken Competition.
However, there are still many familiar faces among the contestants this time, such as Krevi, who was eliminated last year because there was no Eye of God and she just came on the stage for a while.
There are also many new faces among the contestants, such as Ying, a traveler who just came to Liyue this year, and Shen He, a mysterious clerk who was brought in by the special sponsor of this competition.
This time Liu Bai was not invited to be a referee. After all, he had no interest in participating since Nashida did not participate.
However, he and Nashida were still dragged by Paimon to cheer for Ying.
The rules of this competition are slightly different from last year's. Instead, an elimination system is chosen to select the final two people to compete in three different finals.
In addition, changes have also been made to some details, such as the requirements for the shape of the paper airplane, which must be completed by folding paper and cannot be glued together or crumpled into a ball and thrown out.
In addition to the reward of one million Mora, the winner will also receive a free card to the "Hagentus Ice Cream Shop" specially provided by this year's sponsor. Every seven days, the winner can eat as much as he wants in the store for free. The food cannot be taken away, but the card is valid forever.
Although the store was originally opened to sell ice cream, the items sold in the store have been increasing in order to meet customer demands. Now there are snacks such as hamburgers, fried chicken, pizza, crayfish, etc., as well as drinks such as sparkling water, milk tea, and milkshakes.
It's already a very qualified fast food restaurant.
"Come on, travelers! Come on, travelers!"
Below the stadium, Paimeng grabbed the cheering stick that Liu Bai had used during Yunjin's performance a few days ago, and waved it while cheering for Ying on the field.
Ying had no memory of having played with paper airplanes before, but when she got the paper and started folding it, she suddenly felt a sense of familiarity, and she easily folded a paper airplane with relatively wide wings.
With the help of this special paper airplane, Ying successfully passed the audition and entered the knockout stage.
Shenhe also successfully entered the knockout stage.
"Hehe, it seems that the paper flying chicken we prepared for Shen He is really useful. Look, Shen He has entered the finals."
As the competition went on, Gui Zhong, who was among the audience, spoke to Master Liuyun Jiefeng with some pride.
"Humph, I had spent a year practicing to create the latest model of paper flying chicken. I was going to give it to Shen He, but I didn't expect you to grab it first. If you had used my paper flying chicken, the championship of this game would have been a foregone conclusion."
Master Liuyun Jiefeng said this with some dissatisfaction.
"Hehe, it's first come, first served. Besides, didn't you go to find Ganyu? Didn't she want your paper flying chicken?"
Gui Zhong stuck out his tongue embarrassedly, and then asked Master Liuyun Jiefeng.
"Alas, Ganyu is not willing to participate in this kind of competition... and I missed the opportunity to register myself because I was looking for her. I have no choice but to participate next year with a new model of paper flying chicken."
Master Liuyun Jiefeng sighed, and then continued to watch the game with Gui Zhong.
A paper flying chicken developed by a demon, and a paper flying chicken folded by a traveler according to instinct, both of them successfully entered the final thanks to their good control of power.
"Traveler, do you want this championship?"
Standing on the final stage, Shen He asked Ying the same question as before when he asked her if she wanted to become the champion of the competition organized by Ningguang.
"Of course I do."
"But I also want to have a fair fight with you."
Ying nodded affirmatively.
However, she was a little worried that Shen He would give up the championship to her, so she added another sentence.
"I see. Come on."
Shen He nodded and picked up the paper airplane in his hand. Ying was not to be outdone, and the atmosphere on the field became a little tense for a moment.
"Ahem, two contestants, although your competitive spirit is very touching, our competition is not a martial arts competition. Don't look like you are about to fight."
In the referee's seat, Kurumi couldn't help but cough lightly, which made the two people who were looking at each other with paper airplanes come back to their senses.
Afterwards, Walnut announced the opening of the finals of the 2nd Paper Flying Chicken Competition.
