Chapter 1331: Chapter 1331: Commander’s Seal

Gu Peiyuan felt a bit regretful, but under Ji You’s sinister smile and Guan Ning’s threatening hand gestures, Gu Peiyuan said nothing.

The atmosphere shifted from tense to harmonious.

Ji You lightly waved his hand, Guan Ning put his hand away, and Gu Peiyuan felt relieved.

Then.

Ji You said: "Untie him."

Gu Peiyuan was overjoyed!

Cheng Haoyue stepped forward, looking at him with a hint of sympathy, which made Gu Peiyuan a bit nervous.

Cheng Haoyue said: "You’ve worked hard."

Gu Peiyuan was confused: "???"

Cheng Haoyue, along with Guan Ning, moved forward to untie Gu Peiyuan. As Guan Ning reached out, Gu Peiyuan yelled: "Take your hand away, don’t touch my hair."

Guan Ning: "..."

Guan Ning sneered: "Your greasy hair, I have no interest in touching it."

Gu Peiyuan’s face stiffened slightly.

Cheng Haoyue untied the ropes for quite a while, realizing they were all dead knots. He turned to Ji You and said: "Can’t untie them, what now?"

Ji You leaned forward to take a look, slightly embarrassed, and said: "I forgot, they’re all dead knots, so we’ll just have to trouble you a bit longer."

Gu Peiyuan: "..."

Gu Peiyuan cursed: "You did it on purpose!"

Ji You chuckled: "That’s right, on purpose."

Gu Peiyuan: "..."

Ji You’s eyes darkened: "Don’t think I don’t know your tricks, digging a pit for me in the Commander camp? Trying to get me killed?"

Gu Peiyuan’s face instantly darkened.

Ji You said: "Hand over the Commander’s Seal."

Gu Peiyuan’s mouth stiffened as he gritted his teeth: "I don’t have that thing."

Ji You said: "Hand over the Commander’s Seal."

Gu Peiyuan muttered: "That old antique thing, I told you I don’t have it."

Ji You bared her teeth, "Hand over the Commander’s Seal, this is the last time I’ll say this to you."

"..." Gu Peiyuan’s face turned red, unable to resist cursing: "Damn!"

"I’ll give it to you!"

Ji You smiled: "Nice."

Then she reached out, presenting her competition bracelet to Gu Peiyuan.

Gu Peiyuan was shocked: "You actually knew?!!!"

Ji You rolled her eyes: "It’s not at the camp, not in your pocket, clothes, shoe soles... ruling those out naturally leaves the competition bracelet."

Gu Peiyuan was still shocked: "But how did you know about this thing? And decided it was with me?"

Ji You rolled her eyes again: "Duh, you’re the Commander, if it’s not with you, then where could it go? Besides, such an important thing, could you comfortably hide it elsewhere?"

Gu Peiyuan was constipated: "Couldn’t you just not take it?"

Ji You confirmed: "No way."

Without the Commander’s Seal, she wouldn’t really hold the commander position, although that wasn’t what Ji You valued. Even without the Commander’s Seal, she could still lead the troops.

But!

Only with the Commander’s Seal, when Camp 5 wins the final victory, can Ji You receive additional points for the Commander position!

points!

Where to find it?

And, this is a special reward exclusively for the Commander; with these 100 points in hand, Ji You can secure her advancement.

If Ji You doesn’t get the Commander’s Seal but leads the camp to victory, the competition system won’t acknowledge her commander position.

Cough cough...

Annoying competition system, if it weren’t so mysterious and opaque, how could she have hidden her strength, ending up entering as a mere soldier?

After all this effort, she finally claimed the commander position.

However, thinking about having to hand over the Commander’s Seal, Gu Peiyuan was still furious: "Can you just not take it? It’s just 100 extra points; can’t you give them to me?"

Ji You unkindly said: "You’re so lame, even if I give you 100 points, you can’t advance."

You’re so lame~

You’re so lame~

You’re so lame~

...

Gu Peiyuan was utterly shocked!

"I..."

"I..."

"Pfff—"

Gu Peiyuan spat out a mouthful of blood!

Ji You: "..." 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

Ji You side-eyed him: "Even if you’re going to die, hand over the Commander’s Seal before you do."

"Cough!"

"Cough cough..."

"Cough cough! Cough...!!" Gu Peiyuan coughed, his body trembling.

"I! I... I’m clearly so strong!" After coughing vigorously for a while, Gu Peiyuan finally regained his voice: "You... you vicious and cruel ugly woman!"

Ji You: "..."

Ji You bared her teeth at him: "You really don’t want to live?"

Gu Peiyuan shivered, gave a fierce jolt, and regained a bit of sanity.

Then.

He pursed his lips, said nothing, and instead transferred his Commander position away.

That’s right.

The Commander position can be transferred to someone else.

In camp battles, anyone might die, including the Commander, so once the Commander perishes, the Deputy Commander, or other strong individuals, can take over the Commander’s duties.

Moreover, if the Commander doesn’t die from other reasons, they can also transfer rights to someone else.

The competition arena has this rule too.

This rule is clearly written in the Commander’s duty requirements. Gu Peiyuan has been carefully keeping it a secret from others.

But Ji You is just too cunning! To know and force him to relinquish control.

"Ying~"

Gu Peiyuan cried.

He raised his hand, covering his face with the back of his hand, sobbing Yingyingying sadly.

Right now, he really wasn’t the Commander anymore. Furthermore, he couldn’t use this to punish Ji You for disobeying the Commander’s orders.

Watching Gu Peiyuan’s wretched state, Cheng Haoyue, recalling his own moment of being ousted, felt a pang of sympathy...

Thankfully, he was just a small class leader, losing control to Ji You didn’t have much impact.

Ji You glanced at her competition bracelet, which now showed her title was no longer the bottom-tier soldier, but the shining Commander! She couldn’t help but smile in satisfaction.

Next, Ji You ordered: "Untie him."

Cheng Haoyue and He Nu stepped forward, undoing all those dead knots in less than 10 seconds.

Gu Peiyuan: "..."

Off-screen:

"Can’t bear to watch."

"So miserable."

"This is truly the most pitiful Commander of this match."

"Ahem... speaking of misery, that Commander from Camp 6 isn’t much better off either."

"With Ji You around, Charles and Gu Peiyuan are both suffering."

...

On-screen.

Ji You watched Gu Peiyuan, who was gobbling down porridge, with a smile on her face, filled with a glow of affection.

Gu Peiyuan was completely unaware.

Cheng Haoyue and the others instinctively distanced themselves from Ji You.

Then.

After finishing the last sip of porridge, still not full, he heard Ji You inviting him with a smile: "Full yet? There’s more in the pot, all saved for you."

Gu Peiyuan gave a smile, thinking this damn Ji You hadn’t completely lost her humanity.

Then.

Gu Peiyuan served himself another bowl.

Sluuurp sluuurp~

Finished it in one go.

Then.

Another bowl.

...

Once Gu Peiyuan was totally satiated, he wiped his mouth and looked up, to see Ji You’s smiling face filled with joy, "Glad you’ve had enough, you can move on now."

Gu Peiyuan: "???"
