Chapter 382: The Gynophobe Crown Prince 32

Hearing this, Tang Wan's eyes immediately lit up. “Really? I knew Tongtong was the best!”

Hearing Tang Wan's praise, the corners of Zhou Zitong's lips immediately lifted.

Then, pretending to be modest, he said, “This is only the beginning. There are still more than a dozen teams with roughly the same number of troops as us. It's too early to celebrate.”

“Right, right, we can't get arrogant! Pride makes people fall behind!” Lin Cong hurriedly nodded.

Seeing this, Tang Wan said with a beaming smile, “But I believe the final championship will definitely be ours!”

“That's right!” Lin Cong clenched his fist, his eyes filled with determined confidence that they would win.

When Tang Wan had approached him and asked him to team up with the Crown Prince, he had thought he was dreaming.

He had loved strategy games since he was young. But precisely because of that, his classmates had always said he was scheming and didn't like playing with him. On top of that, he was fat, so he had practically no friends.

It wasn't until he won the championship of a strategy game, defeating a military commander, that his talent was discovered and he was able to enter the Imperial Military Academy.

He had thought that, just like before, he would once again be unable to make friends and would be criticized for being manipulative.

But after coming here, he learned that the qualities others had once looked down upon in him were precisely the most valuable talents here.

And his talent had even earned the Crown Prince's recognition!

Therefore, no matter what, he would never let down this recognition!

……

Since people tended to feel sleepy during their periods, and Tang Wan had also watched an entire television drama, she couldn't help yawning at this moment.

Seeing this, Zhou Zitong immediately said, “Tired? Lie down and sleep for a while. I'll try to finish the competition before you wake up.”

With that, he took Tang Wan's hand and led her to the bed.

Seeing this, Lin Cong's eyes suddenly widened.

???

Why did he feel that something was… not quite right about Zhou Zitong and Tang Wan?

And the expression on Zhou Zitong's face… was way too gentle, wasn't it?

He had always been a block of ice before!

But before Lin Cong could figure out what was strange, Zhou Zitong had already come out and said, “Let's go. No more dragging this out. We'll finish it quickly.”

Hearing this, Lin Cong hurriedly said, “Oh,” and followed him.

……

Tang Wan was awakened by Zhou Zitong when she woke up again.

“Wanwan, wake up. We're about to win the championship,” Zhou Zitong said gently.

At the moment they won the championship, he absolutely had to make sure she saw it.

Tang Wan immediately woke up. “We won?”

“Mm. Come with me!”

With that, he pulled Tang Wan out of the room and stood with her at the balcony entrance.

A dozen or so seconds later, an enormous seven-colored firework bloomed in the pitch-black sky. Accompanied by the resounding chimes of a bell, a flag appeared on the tower atop the city wall and fluttered in the wind beneath the fireworks-lit night sky.

At the same time, a mechanical announcement sounded throughout the virtual world:

“Congratulations to Zhou Zitong, Lin Cong, and Tang Wan for achieving the final victory in this simulated battle competition!”

Hearing the announcement, Zhou Zitong immediately frowned in displeasure.

Hmph!

They had actually separated his and Wanwan's names and put Lin Cong in between them.

So when Lin Cong excitedly rushed over, wanting to celebrate with the two of them, all he received was a death glare from Zhou Zitong.

Lin Cong: ???

Why did he suddenly feel so cold behind him?

……

After the competition ended, the three of them exited their virtual pods.

As soon as they emerged, several instructors approached them with excited expressions and said, “You guys did an excellent job! At the end of this semester, the three of you don't even need to take the final exam. You're all getting full marks!”

The moment these words were spoken, the surrounding students immediately looked at the three of them with expressions of envy, jealousy, and hatred.

Damn!

They wanted benefits like that too!
