Lord of Nine Stars

The next day, in the morning.

Gao Lingwei came to the door of Xia Fangran's room and knocked gently: "Has Tao Tao changed her clothes?"

"Here we come~" Rong Taotao said and hurriedly walked towards the door.

Opening the door, Rong Taotao couldn't help but his eyes lit up.

The gold and red national team uniforms have completely changed the style of Gao Lingwei, who always wears white clothes. She rarely wears such brightly colored clothes, but it has a unique flavor.

There is also a bright red flag on the left chest, and the large background picture on the chest looks like auspicious clouds.

Rong Taotao and Gao Lingwei are very satisfied with this piece of clothing.

During the national competition, as students of Songjiang Soul Warrior University, the two of them had exclusive privileges and could wear pure white clothes, symbolizing the Snow Realm Soul Warriors, while other Hoshino, Ocean, and Lava Soul Warriors were not allowed to wear white clothing.

But now, the uniforms of the Chinese national team are unified.

very good! The clothes are all the same, it’s time to compete for looks!

"Let's go and take the makeup photos." Gao Lingwei stretched out her palm and straightened Rong Taotao's slightly messy natural curls. A faint smile appeared on her face.

"Let's go." Rong Taotao said hello to Xia Fangran, followed Gao Lingwei out to the elevator, and asked casually, "Have you thought of a posture?"

Gao Lingwei was stunned for a moment and said, "Posture?"

"Yeah, why don't we be more powerful and scare all the young people?" The two walked into the elevator, Rong Taotao whispered, "This photo will be used all the time, for draws, actual battles, TV broadcasts, and the big screen in the stadium."

Hearing this, Gao Lingwei smiled and said, "Those photographers are all professionals, just listen to them."

Rong Taotao's heart moved and he said, "I have an idea."

"Um?"

"Do you want to be the devil?"

Gao Lingwei glanced at Rong Taotao and said, "I don't want to."

Rong Taotao looked happy: "Then I'll do it!"

Gao Lingwei: "."

Rong Taotao was minding his own arrangements: "You are beautiful and sassy. If you stand in front, you can act as a front. How about I stand behind you, back to back with you, and I don't turn around, but only show my side face?"

Listening to the scene described by Rong Taotao, Gao Lingwei's expression was a little strange. Although she didn't want to admit it, the scene Rong Taotao said was indeed interesting.

Gao Lingwei hesitated and said, "Will I stand in your way?"

Hearing these words, Rong Taotao's nose almost became angry. He held his head high and stood next to Gao Lingwei, saying: "We are already the same height. That standing posture is quite harmonious. I thought it was two years ago." ?Xia Fangran is a little shorter than me now!"

"Haha~" Gao Lingwei couldn't help but laugh out loud after listening to Rong Taotao's self-esteem-shattering excuse, "Okay, okay, I'll listen to you."

Rong Taotao curled his lips and said, "According to my brother Rong Yang's height, I can grow a little longer, and then we will be more harmonious."

Gao Lingwei kept nodding, looking like she was coaxing a child: "You're fine now, don't worry, I didn't team up with you because of your appearance."

Rong Taotao: "."

The words were kind words, which were recognition of Rong Taotao's strength. But...how does it sound awkward?

Right! Gao Lingwei! Just let me pierce your heart!

The elevator door opened, and Gao Lingwei stepped out, followed by a lost Rong Taotao, who seemed to be humming some tune:

"Every word you say is like a scar cutting into my heart."

Ahead, Gao Lingwei felt helpless, turned around and grabbed Rong Taotao's arm, and walked quickly towards the small auditorium.

This place has been turned into a temporary shooting location. The national team has a tight schedule today. They will take makeup photos and have a small meeting in the morning, and in the afternoon they will go to the airport to fly to Europe.

When the two arrived at the auditorium, there were already many contestants here, including scattered singles and a few pairs. Due to the large number of contestants in the trio, this was not the hotel where they stayed.

Rong Taotao and Gao Lingwei walked in and naturally attracted people's attention.

"Tao Shen, you're all right." A young man and woman stepped forward. Against the backdrop of their gold and red competition uniforms, they looked extraordinary and heroic.

Wan Qiwu and Wan Qiyan are brothers and sisters.

The leader of the Chinese Lava Soul Warriors and one of the officially designated players for the opening match of the national competition.

The seed player tied for first place with Rong Taotao and Gao Lingwei.

"Just call me Taotao." Rong Taotao looked at Wan Qiyan and said with a smile.

During the national competition, Wan Qiyan once said that he was a fan of Rong Taotao. Now it seems that this sentence is true.

Rong Taotao gave her a scarf yesterday, and Wan Qiyan responded with both emotion and support. Naturally, Rong Taotao had a very good attitude towards her.

As for the other person, it goes without saying.

Wan Qiwu, a man who fought with Rong Taotao until the last moment in the national competition finals!

"We have heard about the Snow Realm and read many reports. We know that you have joined the Snow Army and seem to have gone to garrison in the Three Walls area." Wan Qiwu stretched out his palm and said, "Thank you for your hard work, brother. Welcome to join the Chinese Soul Martial Army."

Wan Qiwu and Wan Qiyan have a special status. Although they have not graduated from college, they have joined the Chinese local army early and belong to the Rongyao Army in the northwest frontier.

He is a true warrior, and he is a companion to Rong Taotao and Gao Lingwei.

This World Cup is likely to be the last moment of relaxation for the Wanqi brothers and sisters. From now on, they will have to fight for the rest of their lives.

Well, if nothing unexpected happens.

Rong Taotao joked: "It won't be fun if our two teams meet this time. Whoever wins and who loses will always be unhappy."

"Hahahaha." Wan Qiwu laughed heartily and said, "It's okay. Our Rong Yao Army is in the northwest, and your Xue Ran Army is in the northeast. We will never see you in this life, and we won't be able to work together."

"Haha~" Hearing this, Wan Qiyan smiled softly. With bright phoenix eyes and long hair shawl, she is really beautiful and confident, "So... let's meet in the finals?"

Rong Taotao raised his eyebrows slightly and was about to speak when he heard an "explosion" in his ears!

"Boom!"

Rong Taotao was startled, turned around and saw a cute and fiery little loli.

The explosion was obviously caused by Li Zi's mouth. At this time, she was tapping her toes and trying to reach Rong Taotao's ears, looking a little funny.

But her small hands, which were originally clasped together, moved to both sides, trying to match her words, and made an explosive gesture.

Rong Taotao: "."

"Hmph~" Li Zi snorted, "Be careful, don't let me meet you in the World Cup!"

Rong Taotao grinned: "Do you still hold grudges?"

When 14 advanced to 7 in the national competition, two popular lolita players, Li Mu and Li Zi, were eliminated by Rong Taotao and Gao Lingwei.

It's just that the two of them managed to reach the top spot in the loser's bracket. As the eighth-ranked players in the country, they caught up with the last train of the national team and made a comeback.

"I spent half a year cultivating my mind and character. This time, I won't be disturbed by your words anymore!" Li Zi put her hands on her hips, looking confident.

After half a year of cultivating the mind and character, this is the result?

You have to put your toes close to people's ears to scare them?

Rong Taotao shook Wan Qiwu's big hand, then let go, putting his elbow on Li Zi's shoulder.

Li Zi raised her eyebrows with a look of dissatisfaction on her face: "What are you doing? Are you looking for a beating?"

Rong Taotao: "Half a year of cultivating the mind and cultivating the character, is this the result?"

"Eh?" Li Zi blinked, hesitated for a moment, and nodded with approval, "Yes, yes, I'm not angry, so just hold on."

Rong Taotao stood up straight and moved his elbow: "Not bad, not bad. This mentality is good. I can go further in the World Cup."

"Tch~ Stop pretending to be a good guy here."

Rong Taotao said matter-of-factly: "Really, don't you think you have joined the national team now? It would be beneficial to suffer a loss early.

If you have a smooth journey and have never suffered any losses, but when you encounter a player who specializes in trash talking in the World Cup, the losses will be huge, and you will not have a chance to do it again. "

Li Zi turned her little head to the side, looking arrogant: "It's okay, I can't understand foreign languages."

Rong Taotao:? ? ?

As long as I don't understand what the other person is saying, they can't scold me?

The corners of Rong Taotao's mouth twitched in embarrassment: "Then there's no need for you to be proud."

Wan Qiyan: "Pfft hahahaha"

Li Zi: "."

On the side, Wan Qiwu said: "How can you not understand? How can someone who can pass the Dajiang Hunwu exam be so bad at Russian?"

This phenomenon is also very interesting. Although the world's common language is English, whether it is China's northeastern border or the northwest border, the language system in the external region is Russian.

Therefore, under the special geographical environment, Russian is a key course offered by Dajiang Hunwu and Songjiang Hunwu, which provide talents for local legions.

"Next group, next group! Hurry up!" A staff member's voice came from a distance.

Everyone turned to look, but they happened to see a pair of tall brothers walking out from behind the curtain. They had obviously just finished filming.

Rong Taotao was very familiar with these two people.

Jingchu Hunwu University, two brothers, Chen Zhaowu and Chen Muge.

Especially Chen Muge, his philosophy on life did have some influence on Rong Taotao.

Whether it is correct or not is not mentioned for the time being, but the sentence "Unlike other people, I open my arms and accept everything that life gives me, good or bad." It is indeed interesting.

The two brothers also wore diamond earrings on their ears, which were shining brightly.

The national team still wears earrings in their makeup photos, which is indeed more personal.

From a distance, Chen Muge also spotted Rong Taotao. Their eyes intertwined and the two brothers also walked over.

"As expected, you are here." Chen Muge said.

Rong Taotao nodded and said, "Come on, it's only this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so you have to make good use of it."

Chen Muge extended his palm in a friendly manner: "I hope to meet you again."

Rong Taotao smiled and said, "What, are you ready for revenge?"

Chen Muge shrugged his shoulders coolly: "With the strength of our team, I'm afraid it will be difficult to win the championship. If we have to find a team to send us away, I naturally hope it is you."

Rong Taotao: "Ah?"

This guy is quite free and easy. I don't know whether to say that he has an accurate positioning or that he is underestimating himself.

The teams of Chen Zhaowu and Chen Muge are also at the top of the Chinese national team.

In competitions and battles, accidents are easy to happen, and luck also plays a certain role. If the two brothers play well, they should go a long way.

Chen Muge changed the topic and said, "Now, can you use the lotus petals more properly?"

Only then did Rong Taotao realize that this kid was not seeking defeat, but for "feeling"?

Hey~

Do you have masochistic tendencies?

How can anyone chase me and beg me to bloom?

Rong Taotao shook his head decisively: "It's not appropriate to let you down."

Rong Taotao can bloom, whether it's the sin lotus or the hell lotus, he can use big moves.

But the price of using the ultimate move was something Rong Taotao couldn't bear.

According to the situation of using lotus petals several times before, the energy in Rong Taotao's body will be quickly drained, and he will have to lie in bed for at least three days.

The competition format of the World Cup is three days and one game. It is impossible for Rong Taotao to play in this game, abstain from the next game, and lie on the bed soundly asleep.

Even if Rong Taotao can wake up earlier, his condition is a big problem. It's not like you can open your eyes and be 100% ready for the next battle. Rong Taotao needs time to recuperate and recover. .

Therefore, these flowers cannot bloom during the game. The only time they can appear is on the finals court.

Of course, there is no need to use artillery to kill mosquitoes.

If you don't open it, it will be over. The sin lotus "swishes" like a small blade. It will hit the opponent from time to time. Who can withstand it?

Hearing Rong Taotao's response, Chen Muge looked disappointed, said goodbye to everyone, and left with his brother.

Rong Taotao looked at the two brothers' backs and muttered in a low voice: "What a weirdo."

"Let's go and line up." Gao Lingwei said softly.

"Oooo."

Ten minutes later, Rong Taotao and Gao Lingwei entered the temporarily enclosed photography room. Before Rong Taotao could speak, the teacher Tony who was taking the photo had already started to get excited.

"Rong Taotao, Gao Lingwei! Finally, people come to the snowland! Finally, it's not Hoshino Haiyang!" Teacher Tony, who has the same name as thousands of barbers, has his head full of imagination. It can be said that Rong Taotao and Gao Lingwei use their imagination. I learned some snow soul skills and took a lot of photos.

Rong Taotao was already stupid!

Because when Teacher Tony knew that he had the Snow Ghost Hand soul skill, he even asked Rong Taotao to create frost and snow on the spot, summon the Snow Ghost Hand, and then sit on it!

what is this? Throne?

Gao Lingwei frowned slightly, and she, who had always been very cooperative, finally said, "Is this appropriate? After all, this is the final makeup photo of the national team."

"It's appropriate, of course it's appropriate!" Teacher Tony nodded repeatedly, "This is the effect we want! You are here to fight, not to make friends. You have to overwhelm your opponent with your momentum!

And you two are definitely worthy of your reputation and strength! Come on, come on, sit on Snow Ghost's hand and let me see the effect! "

Tony looked left and right: "Gao Lingwei, you raise Erlang's legs and give me the feeling of looking down on all living beings!"

Gao Lingwei frowned and said, "I refuse."

On weekdays, she does cross her legs a lot, but that is in ordinary life, it doesn't matter if she is casual or unrestrained. After all, the photo taken at this time is a makeup photo, and she hopes that her image can be more formal.

"Ah," Tony said with a distressed look on his face, "Then you sit more imposingly. Why do you say that word is Da Ma Jin Dao! Yes, it is Da Ma Jin Dao!"

Gao Lingwei: "."

In the end, Gao Lingwei sat on the beautiful Snow Ghost's hand, her eyes were sharp and majestic, and she was holding the thumb of Snow Ghost's hand with one hand, which seemed to be holding the armrest of the throne.

Behind her, Rong Taotao stood with his back to her, standing on the snow ghost's hand.

There was an exquisite snow-made Daxia dragon bird slung across his waist. He was holding the handle of the knife in his backhand, turning his head without turning, slightly revealing his profile.

"Crack!"

Tony looked down at the camera in his hand and murmured to himself: "Perfect, simply perfect, this is the real figure."

Thanks for the rewards from I Am Your Beat, Wangyue Tianya, Absurdity, and others! Thanks for the support!
