<h4>Chapter 471: So Unlucky</h4>


    Only until the footsteps weren’t heard anymore, did Gu Qingjiu crawl out from under the desk.


    She was holding that silver lighter with a dazed expression on her face.


    She had seen the Chief Instructor fidgeting with this lighter before.


    But she had never seen the Chief Instructor smoke.


    For the Chief Instructor to suddenly be tossing this lighter to her, what did it mean?


    She carefully looked at it. It was only a small, silver lighter.


    There weren’t any patterns, and it was square. However, engraved on the silver coating was the alphabet H.


    She couldn’t quite understand why, but she carefully ced that lighter into her pocket before heading to thebatpetition venue.


    There was still some time until she was due topete. Since thetter part was mostly the guyspeting, Gu Qingjiu didn’t harbor much hope due to the disparity in physical strength between the two genders.


    Coincidentally, she and Qi Xiaoranpeted at roughly the same time, so she didn’t have the chance to watch Qi Xiaoranpete.


    Surprisingly, Gu Qingjiu won two consecutive rounds in thebatpetition.


    She didn’t have much difficulty winning those rounds.


    It could only be said that she got lucky, to be assigned to opponents who weren’t that strong.


    After Gu Qingjiu had emerged as victorious, Gu Qian and Chu Lian came up to surround her. “Aiyoyoh Qingjiu, you’re really capable. You even made it to the second round inbat. Don’t tell me you’re going to create history?”


    Seeing them look so excited, Gu Qingjiu shook her head andughed. “Stop talking about me, what about you guys? I remember you two made it past the selection rounds inbat.”


    Although Gu Qian and Chu Lian didn’t have much talent in shooting, both did pretty well inbat and qualified topete in this segment.


    However, the instant she asked this question, the atmosphere grew a little awkward.


    Gu Qian opened her mouth and said, “... We were defeated in the first round.”


    She looked as though she couldn’t bear to recall the matter.


    Gu Qingjiu couldn’t help but rap Gu Qian’s head and jokingly said, “Useless!”


    Then she asked, “How are Qi Xiaoran’s results?”


    With a hint of mystery, Chu Lian answered, “I think she’s really capable. She defeated her opponent in more or less ten seconds, and she was forceful and ferocious in her tactics. She’s upied one of the three spots inbat.”


    “It’s likely for our dormitory to have the champion in shooting andbat. Incredible.”


    Gu Qian then came up with a rare retort, “Only the two of us are dragging the dormitory down.”


    Chu Lian instantly rolled her eyes at Gu Qian. “I’m better than you, okay? At least I was defeated in the second round, whereas you lost in the first round.”


    “You just got a bit luckier!”


    Gu Qian was unwilling to admit defeat, and seeing as the two of them were about to get into a quarrel again, Gu Qingjiu hurriedly stopped them. “Alright, alright, let’s stop talking about this. Let’s go back to the dormitory first.”


    “No, no. Let’s go for dinner first. I’m famished.”


    The school canteen extended dining by an hour so that students who had just finishedpeting would have something to eat.


    “Alright, lets’ go.”


    Gu Qingjiu nodded. She was just about to go with Gu Qian and Chu Lian to the canteen when she saw Feng Yumeng running over.


    She looked a little thrilled. “Qingjiu, I saw that you made it to the next round. Congrats.”


    Seeing Feng Yumeng, Gu Qingjiu nodded with a smile. “Thank you, I will try my best.


    “Go for it. Only you and two other people from our specialization made it to the next round.”


    Gu Qian was astonished to hear this. “Why is theputer science specialization so unlucky?”
