Chapter 71: King of the Village 070
The scene where the young contestants challenged the chickens immediately sparked lively discussions among the audience:
"I never thought collecting eggs would be so difficult, I'm dying of anxiety just watching."
"The roosters can be very strong in battle, sometimes even adults can't beat them."
"I don't think they're that tough, they're just chickens. I once slide-tackled and turned all the chickens in my hometown into braised chicken."
"Why are you in every comment section above?"
"I feel like only the eldest sister can handle the chickens."
"It looks like the eldest sister is ready to charge."
"Now's the time!"
While Lu Weizhuang drew away most of the chickens' attention, Yue Yipei, who had been waiting by the side, finally charged into the chicken coop and swiftly scooped a bunch of eggs from the nest.
The chickens behind her realized what happened and turned back to peck at Yue Yipei.
Even the strongest can't fight off iron beaks with bare hands!
Yue Yipei, clutching the eggs, broke into a run.
True to her reputation as a martial arts prodigy, she ran with ease and agility!
"No... don't be so tense!"
"It's over, the eldest sister's Inner Strength is too strong, she's shattered the eggs!"
"The eldest sister has made a mistake!"
Yue Yipei's hands were sticky and wet, and also a bit covered with chicken droppings.
But there was no sign of her whimpering!
Yue Yipei wasn't going to cry anymore.
She was no longer that fragile self who first competed at the age of 7.
Everyone who participates in "The Ultimate Moe Kids Show" has their own reason.
Some are there for fame and followers, others to show off their talents.
Yue Yipei keeps participating in "The Ultimate Moe Kids Show," not because the title of Moe King is that important to her.
After all, it wouldn't help her improve her ranking of 9134 in the national martial arts ladder.
What she wanted to do was just to give her younger self a sense of closure.
She had always just missed out on becoming the Moe King.
She had to withdraw in shame because she wet the bed in the first year.
She lost on the final stage in the second year.
Thus, the title "Moe King" had always lingered in Yue Yipei's heart like a shadow.
In the quiet of the night, when she finished her milk, brushed her teeth, washed her face, and went to bed, she would occasionally think of the championship she didn't win and fall into deep emo.
The next day, she would even sleep in until eight in the morning!
That's right.
Yue Yipei participated in "The Ultimate Moe Kids Show" not just to reclaim what she had lost.
But also to fight her own inner demons!
Yue Yipei firmly believed that only by overcoming her inner demons could she improve her stagnant karate training!
It wasn't time to give up yet.
Yue Yipei was waiting for the right moment.
The opportunity came soon.
Xin Luhan and Danny Lee had reached a consensus. Rubbing their hands in anticipation, they were eager to show off their prowess in front of the girl they admired.
"Mu Mu, watch, I'm going to scare off those chickens with my Thomas Flair and have these chicks bow before the god of street dance's youthful energy!"
"Mu Mu, did you know? Dutch is one of the languages with the most explosive consonants in the world. Next, I'm going to impress those chickens with the powerful Dutch language, and let them witness the spirit and fury of Danny Lee."
"Then... you guys do your best."
Su Mumu smiled and clapped for everyone while Yue Yipei also secretly calculated in her heart:
Good, you two keep up that spirit, just distract them for 10 seconds...
No, 8 seconds will be enough for me to safely get the eggs out!
Xin Luhan and Danny Lee walked up one after the other.
"Is it, is it your turn to do the Thomas Flair? Can't do it?"
"Why don't you intimidate them with Dutch, don't you want to?"
As the two kids hesitated, a few roosters noticed their actions, looked at each other, and began to slowly advance step by step.
"Cluck, cluck cluck cluck cluck cluck!"
"Ahhhh——"
Xin Luhan and Danny Lee scattered in all directions, creating a legend of a 3-second defeat!
Tsk... such losers!
Yue Yipei couldn't help but feel exasperated!
Meanwhile, Lu Weizhuang, who had a narrow escape from the ordeal, was sitting on the steps with a look of defeat, resembling someone cruelly bullied.
Because his beloved limited-edition star collaboration jeans had been pecked through, he was feeling very uncomfortable.
Sob sob...
These chickens are too fierce.
When I get back home, I'm going to eat bucket after bucket of fried chicken, eat them all!
Lu Weizhuang sat with his head buried, wiping away tears, when kindhearted Xia Nuo came over to comfort him:
"Uncle, what's wrong with you?"
"Are you missing your mom?"
"No!"
The little brat is so annoying!
Lu Weizhuang snorted and said, "I don't miss my mom at all, and I'm not your uncle! Stop mistaking me for someone else!"
"Okay, Uncle, don't cry. I'll go get the eggs back for you!"
Hmph, even with so many boys, we couldn't beat that big rooster. How could you possibly deal with it?
Lu Weizhuang mocked, "Just don't end up getting pecked and crying for your mommy, and then we'll have to comfort you..."
"I won't!"
Xia Nuo said with a smile, shaking her head, then turned to her best friend Fang You, "You You, let's go get the eggs together!"
"Let's go."
Fang You felt hungry and decided to put an end to this farce.
[No way, Emperor Youyou maybe, but Nuo Nuo has such courage?]
[I've seen her ride the big goose in the village before, maybe it really isn't a problem.]
[Can't the crew pay attention for a bit? I really don't want to see Nuo Bao get hurt.]
But as Xia Nuo and Fang You approached the chicken nest, those once mighty and arrogant roosters had now all bowed their heads and frantically flapped their wings, escaping in terror.
It was as if they had encountered a weasel!
This sudden change left everyone present dumbfounded.
Hey, where did that arrogance go? It's as if they had seen a ghost!
[I've figured it out, Nuo Nuo and You You, these two kids have an aura of a king.]
[I didn't expect chickens could act like this, suggest making it a part of Dragon Films teaching material.]
[No wonder they're the kids who can suppress the village tyrant, the chickens are really scared.]
[Kings of the village!]
Just like that, Xia Nuo and Fang You easily got the eggs!
It was only to be expected.
After all, Fang You possessed the divine Talent "Friend of Livestock"; all animals he met in the countryside had to bow down to the Great Emperor... no wait, be good friends!
Of course, the chickens were also his good friends!
Good friends should be okay with lending an egg, right?
After Xia Nuo got the eggs, she carefully brought them and presented them to a shocked Lu Weizhuang, hugging them in her arms.
"Look, Uncle, don't cry. I got the eggs for you, here."
...
Looking into the child's pure and innocent eyes, the softest part deep inside Lu Weizhuang's heart felt as if it had been touched.
She... she specifically risked being attacked by the big rooster to get the eggs to comfort me!
"Wuu... thank you, Nuo Nuo."
The boy of seven feet hung his head in shame:

"I shouldn't have yelled at you like that; I'm sorry..."
"It's okay, we're teammates! Teammates are supposed to help each other out."
"Teammates should help each other out..."
Lu Weizhuang was reminded of his favorite retired basketball star who also inspired his teammates in the same way, prompting a decision.
He patted his cheeks to reinvigorate himself and, taking the eggs offered by Xia Nuo, he proactively suggested to the staff:
"Since Nuo Nuo got the eggs, she should receive the survival points for this task!"
After all, everyone got the eggs with the help of Fang You and Xia Nuo, and nobody objected!
Thus, Xia Nuo earned double survival points for this round!
[Nuo Nuo: I've gained a 1.7-meter-tall fanboy!]
[Wow! Lu Weizhuang is so enlightened, I suddenly find myself a fan.]
[I didn't expect Uncle to accidentally be a good guy.]
Although Yue Yipei also managed to get eggs, in today's food collection challenge, it was Fang You and Xia Nuo's team that achieved higher completion, and all members received extra survival points as a reward.
Meanwhile, Qu Mo was still in the field, trying to use the power of his ten-stage jazz drum to pull up carrots.
He was dripping with sweat!
This makes no sense!
If a little baby can pull out the carrots, why can't this boy do it!
No, even if I'm weak, I can't possibly have less strength than a 5-year-old kid!
Hey ya hey ya oh ya ya ya ya ya ya ya!
This time, student Qu Mo did not come to terms with his feeble self either!
Accidentally, Qu Mo ripped off the carrot tops and fell onto his backside with a thud!
The throbbing pain from his coccyx made him sweat like rain.
For the sake of preserving his strategic backside strength, the prudent Qu Mo decided to temporarily pause the challenge and seek a better opportunity.
The contest had only just begun, there was still a chance!
