Chapter 4097: Competition Level Up!
Flutter, flutter. A small mechanical bird hovered around the window, tapping knock-knock-knock against the pane.
Madam Qiao Qiao, who was currently sprawled by the window, teasing her precious little beast, lazily squinted her watery eyes and gave the thing a look.
These past few days, she'd been busy supervising the problematic Mu family members with their martial arts training, which had exhausted her.
Today, she finally had some rare free time and was napping by the window. Who knew a mechanical bird would show up?
At a glance, this mechanical bird had to be sent by that fellow Yun Piaomiao.
The thought of Yun Piaomiao immediately reminded Qiao Mu of his brother, Yun Cong, and she couldn't help but feel annoyed.
She let the mechanical bird relentlessly tap knock-knock-knock at the window. Only after a long while did she impatiently pull open the window, allowing the little fellow to fly in.
After hopping inside, the small mechanical bird opened its beak and spat out a scroll of paper. Its beak opened and closed as it chirped, "The final competition venue has been changed to Jiawei City's Saint Jiawei Arena! Please arrive at the Jiawei City Grand Arena competition site on time before chenshi (7-9 AM) three days from now! No waiting for latecomers!"
Qiao Mu suddenly sat upright, initially thinking she was hallucinating. She grabbed the mechanical bird and smacked its head.
The little mechanical bird tragically repeated what it had just said.
Madam Qiao Qiao smacked it again, expressionlessly.
The little mechanical bird repeated.
She smacked it again.
It repeated again...
As she smacked the bird's head for the fifth time, Crown Prince Mo stepped into the bedchamber.
He heard the mechanical bird let out a frustrated squawk, "Are you done yet? No matter how many times I repeat it, it's still the same message! Please arrive at Jiawei City's Saint Jiawei Grand Arena on time before chenshi three days from now!"
"No waiting for latecomers!!"
Flutter, flutter, flutter... The little mechanical bird vigorously flapped its wings, angrily hopped out the window, and soared high, whooshing into the clear blue sky.
Qiao Mu stared expressionlessly at the flying bird, then poked her precious beast, which had its backside facing her.
The little precious beast had probably been oppressed before; at this point, it didn't even want to budge its backside.
When she poked it, it merely twitched slightly and continued to play dead on the table.
Mo Lian couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.
Just how deranged was his little wife to make not a single one of the little beasts want to pay attention to her?
The only eccentric capable of enraging a mechanical bird was probably his own little wife.
Madam Qiao Qiao expressionlessly looked up at her husband, who had just entered through the door, and raised her small arm.
Mo Lian immediately strode over, smiling as he picked her up and sat with her on the couch by the window.
He rubbed his head against her little face and asked, "Wife, what's wrong? Was that mechanical bird from the academy, notifying us about the competition time?"
"Mm, it's broken," Qiao Mu said without expression.
Mo Lian wanted to laugh but quickly held it in. "How could it be broken?"
"It repeated five or six times that we have to go to some arena in Jiawei City for the competition. If that's not broken, what is?"
She'd never heard of the Royal Academy Heavenly Yuan List finals being held at some underground black market arena in Jiawei City.
What kind of nonsense is this?!
Mo Lian chuckled as he took the scroll of paper from the little girl's hand. He opened and scanned it, reading ten lines at a glance, then said with a smile, "Jiawei Academy, Shadow Academy, and six other academies all went to Fenglei City to find Dean Yun."
"They were originally just going to observe, but Instructor Kuofu of Jiawei Academy suggested upgrading the Heavenly Yuan List competition into a grand competition that all academies in the Three Continents could participate in."
