Chapter 1010: Gu Pei Applies to Join Team Blue Whale

Editor: Henyee Translations

Team Blue Whale had returned after five years. Doubts and challenges were inevitable, and this time, the stakes were even higher. Not only did they need to defend their honor, but they also had to forge new glory.

People loved to create idols, but they loved tearing them down even more.

That night, when Gu Pei returned home, he seemed to float as if walking on clouds.

Spotting Gu Yang coming down the stairs, he rushed over, excitement bubbling in his voice. “Sis, you were right! Team Blue Whale is really back, and the club is hiring!”

Seeing his beaming smile, Gu Yang couldn’t help but smile back. “Are you going to seize the opportunity?”

“Absolutely!” Gu Pei’s eyes sparkled with excitement as he clenched his fists. “If I can join Team Blue Whale, I might get to play alongside the Whale God and the others. We could even create glory together in the arena!”

Gu Yang, still on the stairs, reached out to tousle his messy hair. “You can do it, Brother.”

Gu Pei nodded determinedly and headed upstairs.

Feng Jue, who had been standing quietly beside Gu Yang, spoke softly, his tone filled with envy. “Sister, you’re so good to him.”

Gu Yang knew her boyfriend was seeking some comfort again. She hugged him, looking up with a smile in her bright eyes. “Do I treat you badly?”

Feng Jue leaned in and placed a gentle kiss on her forehead.

Of course, his sister treated him very well.

He was just too greedy.

That night, Gu Pei and Qin Xian signed up to join Team Blue Whale.

Soon after, the workload for Team Blue Whale arrived.

There was plenty of work to be done, and new members had to handle much of it themselves. Gu Jin, Feng Jue, and Cao Cuo were all swamped during this period.

As for Gu Yang, she knew her gaming skills were embarrassingly poor. She was better suited to quietly being a mascot and helping the team as a butler, rather than participating in the review of new members.

Given Team Blue Whale’s fame and large fanbase, there were many applicants, so the review process had to be thorough and multi-stepped.

For the initial review, Feng Jue wrote a program to automate the process.

Even for Gu Pei and Qin Xian, Feng Jue didn’t cut any slack.

After all, if they couldn’t pass the preliminary review, they’d be limited to doing odd jobs if they joined Team Blue Whale.

In September, new students arrived at various universities.

Gu Yang and Gu Jin volunteered to help welcome the newcomers at their academy, mainly to earn some work hours.

Although Gu Pei studied finance and wasn’t in the same major as them, they were fortunate to be on the same campus.

Gu Zhaoming and Ruan Xueling personally escorted him to his dormitory.

By the time military training ended, Gu Pei’s complexion had darkened noticeably, especially when he stood beside Gu Yang and the others. It was as if they belonged to different species.

At a Chinese restaurant just outside Hua University’s east gate, Gu Yang treated Gu Pei to a meal.

The newly opened restaurant had received glowing reviews from Hua University students.

While the food at Hua University was decent, offering dishes from China’s eight major cuisines, the lack of variety made it monotonous after a while.

Wearing his military training uniform, Gu Pei devoured the food. Ever since training began, his appetite had surged.

“Slow down,” Gu Yang said, a bit exasperated.

Gu Pei took a sip of soup and sighed. “The only thing worse than military training is being hungry during military training.”

Just then, a sweet and charming voice called out.

“Brother Gu Pei, you’re here too?”

Gu Pei looked up and grinned. “Lingling, Brother Xian. What a coincidence! You’re here for lunch too?”
