Chapter 476: Chapter 468: The Competition Is Almost Over

Josh yawned as he came downstairs, took a look around and didn’t see Yuze.

She patted Rob, who was having lunch: "Where’s the captain? Haven’t seen him all morning?"

Rob finished his noodles and shook his head: "The captain went to get revenge for you. Didn’t you know?"

"Revenge?" Josh didn’t understand: "What kind of revenge?"

Rob: "The captain volunteered to investigate the Augustine family’s abandoned baby case. He should be at the Augustine family now. You should have seen the murderous look on his face. I felt like he wasn’t going to investigate, but to execute someone."

Josh’s mouth twitched, let him go.

Rob looked at Josh again, sighed, and said, "You didn’t see the captain’s look, he was really about to lose it. When he saw those online comments about how the Augustine family abused you, his whole mood turned terrifyingly dark. I put a cup of water on the table, and it almost turned into ice water by him."

Josh gave him a wry smile: "It’s not that exaggerated."

Rob: "Not exaggerated at all. Yushi and Jiang Can went with him too."

Josh raised an eyebrow in curiosity: "Then why didn’t you go?"

Rob looked bitter: "The captain asked me to stay here and wait for you to wake up, so you wouldn’t wake up and not find us and start crying."

Josh: "..." Am I a three-year-old child?

Waking up to see no adults and starting to cry?

In the afternoon, Yuze and the others finally returned.

Josh had just finished her physical training and saw Yuze coming back, waved her hand: "Captain."

Yuze’s murderous aura immediately dissipated, returning to his previous lazy demeanor, and he waved back at her.

Josh obediently walked over.

Yuze took out a small cake from behind and placed it in her hand: "Brought it for you on the way."

A small strawberry-flavored cake.

Jiang Can said: "We saw a cake shop on the way back. Yushi wanted some, and there was only one piece left. The captain snatched it for you."

Josh grinned, glanced at Yushi’s resentful face behind her: "Then should I... share it with you?"

Yuze hooked her neck and pulled her back, walking into the house while saying: "No need, let the kid eat more as he’s growing. He’s on a diet, he won’t eat it."

Yushi said resentfully: "I’m not on a diet!"

Yuze didn’t turn back: "Not dieting, then what will you use to maintain your eight-pack abs? Without your abs, how will our team seduce that group of fans? Without anything to allure fans, how will our team’s popularity remain number one?" 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

Yushi: "..."

Yuze turned his head to him: "Are you going to use this piece of cake to ruin our team’s high popularity?"

Josh’s mouth twitched: "Yushi, he’s CPUing you."

Yushi: "... I won’t eat it."

Such poor acting skills, yet successfully CPUed?

Josh felt the world was magical.

She grabbed a little fork and a small plate from the meal bar, split the cake in two, and handed one piece to Yushi: "Go ahead, eat it."

Yushi wore a troubled face: "I have to diet."

Josh said seriously: "You don’t gain weight in one bite, eat today, don’t eat tomorrow."

Yushi’s eyes lit up and took the cake.

"Meeting time, meeting time!" Ma Qi’s shout came from upstairs.

Their faces fell.

"I don’t want to go to a meeting!"

Rob’s wails echoed throughout No. 1 Mansion.

They trudged upstairs with their heavy bodies.

Ma Qi and Joyce were already waiting in the meeting room.

Seeing the dispirited group, Ma Qi’s mouth twitched: "Cheer up a bit, the tournament is almost over, after that you won’t have meetings even if you want to."

Josh looked at him: "Is it almost over?"

Ma Qi nodded: "Nearly there."

Rob immediately sat up straight: "So soon?"

Ma Qi’s mouth twitched: "Each time only one person advances out of five or six, seven or eight teams. How long do you want it to last?"

Josh asked: "So how many rounds do we have left?"

Ma Qi said: "If all goes well, probably two more rounds. One team battle and one solo battle."

"This team battle will be your most intense one, there might not even be much of a dungeon storyline, it’s basically going to be a free-for-all."

"Take the Eden Garden Guild for example, all guild members who made it to the top hundred will fiercely protect the main team member to win the match. So you will face far more desperate opponents."

"After the team battle, approximately 50 contestants will remain. These 50 will enter the solo dungeon, and it will very likely be a free-for-all. You might encounter your teammates, and form temporary alliances, but eventually only one will emerge victorious. Which means, even if the final five are all the Golden Shit Stirrer team, you still have to find a winner among you."

Rob: "Then I choose to forfeit, I’ve had enough of the captain’s punches."

Yushi’s eyes twinkled: "I want to fight! Fight with the captain! Fun!"

Jiang Can shrugged: "I’d forfeit too."

Ma Qi: "I just said you might last till the end, but it’s even more likely you’ll get eliminated halfway. Because the nobles over there have been scheming just for these two rounds. They’ll do everything they can to win."

Josh nodded, a determined look flashing in her eyes.

Yuze looked at her, curling his lips into a smile: "So? Think you can beat me?"

Josh smiled back: "Why not give it a try? How will I know if I don’t try?"

She had already received the Original Stone from Sun Qimeng, had been meditating and absorbing it since last night, and was on the verge of breaking another seal.

If she really could break the seal, she would soon break through and become a god.

Then, she should have the power to challenge Yuze in the dungeon.

Moreover, her spiritual power level was also close to breaking through.

Ma Qi looked at Josh: "Josh, your fitness information needs updating, go see the doctor later. Your spiritual power level should have improved quite a bit, right?"

Josh nodded: "Basically broke through to S, but it’s not stable yet."

Might even reach double S soon.

She sensed it while meditating last night.

Frankly, she’d thought she didn’t care much about the Augustine family, but after getting her revenge yesterday, she realized her mindset had changed yet again.

It turns out she did care, it was just buried too deep.

After getting her revenge yesterday, she could clearly feel her cultivation speed increasing significantly.

Her ability to absorb gemstones also enhanced greatly.

After breaking through to the S level, it was unstable because her level was fluctuating between S and SR.

Mind you, there are two levels between S and SR, with significant gaps between each.

Josh’s unstable data was due to her cultivation, considering her late-stage Tribulation mastery, she could be an SR caliber on this side.

Given this data, it seemed the seal within her cultivation was about to be undone.
