Chapter 186

The people decided the order by drawing sticks.

Yu Xiao, who drew the shortest stick, stepped forward first.

He stood in front of a 330-pound boulder, spat on his hands and rubbed them together a few times.

Then he assumed a horse stance, squatted down and hugged the boulder.

As he exerted force, he let out grunts from his throat.

However, the tightest part of his body was actually his buttocks, round and plump, almost blinding everyone!

He struggled for a long time, but the boulder didn't budge at all.

The air suddenly became a bit awkward.

"Hmph!"

Yu Xiao let out a roar, scaring the onlookers, but the boulder remained still as ever!

His whole body turned red as he made one final attempt to move it.

After failing, he chose to give up.

He coughed a few times to cover up his embarrassment. "My specialty as a hunter is archery and trap making."

Having said that, Yu Xiao didn't care anymore. He found a 90-pound boulder and lifted it up.

The second person was Sheng Xi.

Although she was tall, her figure was on the thinner side overall. Everyone assumed she would choose a boulder under 70 pounds.

Unexpectedly, she directly lifted a 110-pound boulder!

Clap! Clap! Clap!

Qin Zhao applauded for her.

Sheng Xi steadily put down the boulder and smiled at Qin Zhao, saying: "This weight is just right for me.

When I was living with my parents, I was the one who carried all the rice bags and bottled water up the stairs at home."

As she spoke, she moved to stand next to Qin Zhao.

Qin Zhao thought to herself that Sheng Xi was fishing for compliments, so she said, "You're awesome!"

Sheng Xi: "..."

She doubted if Qin Zhao was using child-directed speech to coax her.

But she didn't have evidence.

An Hongyu felt irritated seeing them smile.

His unhappiness was written on his face.

Lin Rui read their expressions and realized An Hongyu didn't like Sheng Xi's performance.

So when the two women were chatting happily, he interjected, "Sheng Xi, men like gentle and delicate women.

Be careful or you won't get married if you keep this up!" Feeling that was inappropriate, he made a self-deprecating laugh and said, "Just joking, don't mind me."

Sheng Xi and Qin Zhao ignored him and continued talking, not paying Lin Rui any attention at all. Nor did they respond to his "joke".

Being completely ignored, Lin Rui was instantly both ashamed and gloomy!

Seeing that Lin Rui failed to provoke them, An Hongyu glared harshly at him, extremely disappointed.

With hostility from both sides, Lin Rui's mood plummeted to the valley.

He swore inwardly that he must find a chance to fix those arrogant women!

The third person was Zhang Youyuan. Showing decent self-awareness, he chose a 130-pound boulder and succeeded in lifting it.

He silently moved aside.

After that, Tang Jiamao and Xiao Mo lifted 70-pound and 150-pound boulders respectively.

It was An Hongyu's turn. He strode to the 330-pound boulder that Yu Xiao had failed to lift earlier.

Crouching halfway down, he hugged the boulder and slowly exerted force.

Though the lifting process seemed a bit laborious, he managed to accomplish it smoothly in the end.

Holding the boulder up past his shoulders, he shouted loudly: "One, two, three, four...ten!"

Only after counting to ten did he heavily put down the boulder!

The onlooking guests were sincerely convinced and automatically applauded for him.

Qin Zhao and Sheng Xi were clapping as well.

An Hongyu cockily tilted up his chin at Qin Zhao.

Qin Zhao generously said, "Teacher An, extraordinary ability, admirable indeed."

Her words left An Hongyu unsure of how to react.

He simply huffed, "You know it now!"

Afterwards, Qin Zhao walked to the 440-pound boulder amid dubious looks from everyone.

Li Ming reminded: "Miss Qin, please be self-aware. Ordinary people should avoid the 440-pound item, or there could be danger!

Qin Wugong the Invincible met his downfall from lifting a cauldron!"

An Hongyu mocked: "You don't have to desperately show off just to beat me. If you want first place so badly, I can let you have it.

As a man, giving way to women is..."

His words were cut off halfway.

Because Qin Zhao had already lifted the gigantic boulder!

While holding up the boulder, Qin Zhao said to the system 502: "Thanks a lot, little system."

was feeling wronged. Earlier when Qin Zhao's strength hadn't recovered fully, she couldn't participate in the competition.

So 502 suggested that she use 10,000 points to restore her strength.

But Qin Zhao was stingy. She haggled with 502.

In the end she only spent 100 points to purchase one hour of abundant stamina.

When she had lifted the boulder for the 11th second, her strength ran out. Qin Zhao threw the boulder forward.

The onlookers were dumbfounded.

The scene before their eyes was too bizarre!

What kind of shockingly powerful combo was this of a beauty and a gigantic boulder?

After a while, Tang Jiamao quietly asked: "Sister Qin, you're so strong, why do you still owe so much money? With your capabilities, even working as a laborer, you could have earned enough to repay your debt."

In her heart Qin Zhao cursed the original body for leaving her such a huge mess!

She smiled and said: "I really wanted to work as a laborer, but everything is automated now in Blue Planet. There are no jobs for me."

Tang Jiamao suddenly understood. "I see!"

Everyone else: Where did this silly cutie pie come from? Go back home and find your mommy!

"Impossible!!"

The scene was peaceful when a shrill male voice abruptly exploded like thunder out of the blue. It gave everyone a fright!

They heard An Hongyu continue yelling: "Qin Zhao must have taken drugs. How else could a woman lift something so heavy?!"

Qin Zhao walked up to An Hongyu and said: "The burden of proof lies with the one who makes the claim.

If you can't provide evidence, I'll throw you into the river.

At that time, you can experience personally whether my strength is enough or not!"

An Hongyu was forced back several steps by Qin Zhao's momentum.

His lips were as if glued together, unable to open.

Qin Zhao was satisfied with this reaction.

Li Ming announced haltingly: "Adding up the scores of both events, the guest with the highest total is Qin Zhao!"

Qin Zhao was too lazy to listen to his long-winded speech. She grabbed the prizes on the ground, then pulled Sheng Xi along toward the riverbank.

Seeing the wild boar meat in Qin Zhao's hands, Zhang Youyuan and Tang Jiamao swallowed their saliva.

The two men exchanged a glance and simultaneously sighed: "It's almost lunchtime. We should go dig up wild vegetables."

With the two competitions over, the viewer count on Qin Zhao's livestream channel approached 300,000!

The viewers were going crazy spamming the screen!

"I'll call you Sister Zhao, dare you accept?"

"From now on I'm Sister Zhao's strength fan!"

"Oh, while everyone else has wife fans, sister fans, mommy fans, only Qin Zhao's fans are tree-climbing fans and strength fans.

In the future, if she eats spicy food, are hot and sour fans going to suddenly appear too?!"

"I advise you guys not to go overboard!"

...

Among the items Qin Zhao brought back, there was a tent, so the two no longer needed to build a shelter.

They decided to use the time saved to have a feast of wild boar barbecue!

With preparations done, the two women sat by the DIY barbecue grill, roasting and eating meat.

The aroma was carried by the wind, accurately conveying to the guests that someone was having a barbecue.

Lin Rui and An Hongyu were annoyed they had to look away.

An Hongyu resented inwardly that although his older sister had the director help him, she didn't provide ready-made food for them!

He couldn't understand his sister's purpose in doing this, yet was helpless.

Craning his head skyward, he silently mouthed: "Sis, what exactly do you want?"

In the Starion Entertainment office, An Xin read An Hongyu's lip movements and replied: "I want you dead."

Guo Qi pushed the door open and said to An Xin: "Boss An, good news. We detected anomalous fluctuations under the ground of Planet Wasteland!"
