The students of Class Eight spent the next two days in nervous examinations. With the exception of Jiang Xun and a few others, exhaustion was written all over their faces

In the past few days, Class Eight’s attitude towards Mo Zhu had changed. They were impressed by how she had dared to go against the old witch Yang Rong. Although Mo Zhu looked like she was not easy to get along with, she was still very friendly to others and it could be seen from her interactions with Meng Ran.

“Why don’t we form a team and PK?” The person who spoke was Zhang Qi, who sat in front of Meng Ran. He could play the game very well, and many girls in the class would ask him to play games together.

Everyone’s interest was piqued when they heard this. Magic Essence was a very popular competitive game. Basically everyone, no matter men, women, old, or young would be involved in a little of it. And “Essence Soul” was the professional eSports player of Magic Essence. The fans’ cheers were the loudest for him, and many Internet-addicted youths saw him as a god.

Everyone took out their phones to discuss the team groupings. The class became extremely lively. There were already five people in Zhang Qi’s team, three men and two women. There were only four people in the other team. They started asking around to see who else wanted to join and all the girls shook their heads.

They did not play the game well and did not want to be a burden.

“Sister Meng, do you want to play?” Zhang Qi turned his head and looked at Meng Ran and Mo Zhu. Meng Ran played this game too, and Essence Soul was her idol.

“Alright.” Meng Ran thought about it and agreed.

“Sister Mo, do you want to play?” Meng Ran looked at Mo Zhu. She remembered that Mo Zhu played games usually, but she was not sure if she was playing this game.

Mo Zhu shook her head, she flipped open her ancient book and continued reading.

The few of them quickly entered into an intense battle. Meng Ran and the others were not a match for Zhang Qi’s team and suffered a crushing defeat.

Meng Ran played a few rounds against Zhang Qi and the rest. They lost more than they won.

“Sister Meng, looks like you can’t perform.”

“Isn’t it just because your equipment is better? Why are you so arrogant?” Meng Ran’s baby face was scrunched up, but her game equipment was really not as good as Zhang Qi’s.

When Mo Zhu saw Meng Ran like this, she took Meng Ran’s phone from her hand.

“Sister Mo, do you want to play?” Meng Ran was stunned for a moment. She quickly passed the phone to Mo Zhu. Coincidentally, she was not in the mood to play anymore, and she went to the toilet.

Meng Ran was considered quite good in her team. And when they saw Meng Ran pass her phone to Mo Zhu, they became even more dejected. They were definitely going to lose this round again.

Just as they were thinking, they heard Zhang Qi cry out in surprise. He saw Meng Ran’s hero steal the tower on Zhang Qi’s side with just a little of life left. She even went back in time to replenish her health.

The few of them were stunned when they saw how she played. If it was not for Mo Zhu, they would have thought that Meng Ran was cheating while hiding in the toilet.

Was this speed real? It was only then when everyone looked at Mo Zhu’s hand. The girl’s hand was slender and beautiful like a model.

However, what they were concerned about now was not the girl’s hand, but the speed her hands were moving at. It was so fast it left only afterimages on the screen.

Was this hand speed even real?

“D*mn, Sister Mo is amazing.”

“Sister Mo has hidden her abilities well!”

“Sister Mo, carry me!”

Zhang Qi and the other boys said.

“Maybe it’s because Meng Ran had good equipment. What’s there to be proud about winning a round by luck?” Yu Jia, who was standing by the side, had a face full of disdain.

Because of Mo Zhu’s incident, Li Lu had been transferred to another class. Only Yu Jia remained in the class and she was also punished for that incident.

Now that Li Lu was no longer around, her days in Class Eight were no longer as comfortable. Previously, due to Li Lu’s existence, she had a high position in the class.

As Li Lu was no longer around, the other students have started to neglect her. She became increasingly resentful, feeling that this was all because of Mo Zhu.

Now that she saw how friendly Zhang Qi and the rest were to Mo Zhu, she felt extremely indignant.

“If you think she has the ability, ask her to use her own account to play against you.” Yu Jia’s eyes were filled with an evil glint.

Jiang Xun looked at Yu Jia with a hint of mockery in his eyes. There were always the kind of people who didn’t know their place.

Although Zhang Qi and the rest heard her, they ignored her.

“Oh right, Sister Mo, let’s add each other as gaming friends. We can play games together in the future!” Zhang Qi said excitedly.

“Sure.” Mo Zhu opened her game interface and handed her phone over.

Zhang Qi took her phone. He had originally wanted to scan the QR code but he had accidentally seen the game configuration on her phone and he was stunned for a long time.

Seeing that he didn’t react for a long time, Li Shen looked over curiously and he was speechless too.

“Can someone tell me how many stars there are here?” He had played this game for seven years, but he only had ten stars, okay? And this person had thirty stars! Zhang Qi suspected that Mo Zhu had started playing this game when it was first created.
