Ordinary observers in fast time travel

Chapter 1140 Misunderstanding
The two's discussion attracted the attention of the other team members, and Liu Zhan finally couldn't help but ask, "Shi Jia, did you design the spirit whip for Cheng Zi yourself?"

"Hmm." Shi Jia didn't look up, quickly sketched another design on the paper, and handed it to Cheng Zi. "Do you think this is okay?"

Cheng Zi glanced at it and compared it to the previous version, it looked almost the same, but it was missing one feature. "Okay."

“If possible, I’ll start designing. Once the design is complete, it can’t be changed, except for the pattern on the whip’s surface,” Shi Jia said.

“Okay.” Chengzi nodded.

"Can I take a look?" Liu Zhan leaned his head over.

Cheng Zi looked at Shi Jia, who nodded.

"Thank you." Liu Zhan took the design drafts. These were just rough drafts, but they contained detailed descriptions of various data about the whip, allowing people to imagine the final product.

Liu Zhan, also a specialist in magical artifacts, knew even better how powerful the whip would be if all these data were realized! He was inwardly shocked, "Junior Brother Shi Jia? Are you sure you can make all of this?"

Shi Jia nodded, "Well, it's not a big problem. However, I still need to think about how to embed the formation, so I can't guarantee it 100%. Senior Liu Zhan, you're also a spirit weapon master, could you give me some advice?"

Liu Zhan froze upon hearing this, feeling as if his face had been stepped on. "Hehe, junior is joking. My skills are not yet proficient. Currently, I have only barely reached the Green Rank level."

In fact, he might not even manage to materialize a green-tier spirit weapon once out of ten attempts, which is incomparable to someone like Shi Jia who is about to reach the blue-tier. Even so, he is still one of the top ten spirit weapon masters in the third year.

Shi Jia felt a little embarrassed upon hearing this and only said, "Senior is too modest," before continuing to complete her design.

But Liu Zhan's curiosity was not satisfied, and he asked again, "Junior, if I asked you to customize an energy gun, could you design it?"

Shi Jia looked up in confusion, "Energy gun? Firearms?"

Liu Zhan nodded, "I prefer using a gun."

Shi Jia shook his head. "I haven't learned about the structure of firearms yet, so I can't design one for now." Hmm, if we ignore the internal structure of firearms and just use arrays to drive them and fire energy bullets... it doesn't seem to work either. We can't achieve long-range, accurate target shooting.

"Oh, that's a pity." Liu Zhan said with some regret. To be honest, when he saw the design of Cheng Zi's spirit whip, he knew that Shi Jia's overall strength was extraordinary! Whether it was creativity or the level of spirit weapon manifestation, he was definitely among the top students.

He was referring to all the students at Emerald Green.

"If you really want me to customize one, I'll tell you after I learn the basic principles of firearms. I can then give you a discount on the customization fee," Shi Jia said with a smile, showing his interest in 'firearms'.

He had barely finished speaking when he met a burning gaze. Shi Jia quickly turned to look and saw Cheng Zi staring intently at him. It seemed as if the other person was saying: "Discount? Why don't I get a discount?"

Shi Jia coughed lightly, "However, because it is a custom-made item, the price is a bit higher than that of a custom-made spirit sword."

Cheng Zi's gaze remained fixed on him, and Shi Jia forced a smile and said, "Ahem, 300 or more Qingjing. Of course, this is the price for a green-grade spiritual weapon. If the manifested spiritual weapon is of the blue grade, then it will cost 500 or more Qingjing."

Cheng Zi's gaze softened. But the next second, a gasp of cold air rose from beside her, followed by Liu Zhan's trembling voice, "300 Azure Crystals?"

Shi Jia looked at Liu Zhan, meeting the gazes of five pairs of eyes at the same time, especially one pair of eyes that clearly screamed "money-grubbing."

"Um, I've looked into the prices of custom-made spirit artifacts by spirit artifact masters. They're not much higher."

It is indeed a bit high, but Shi Jia believes he is skilled in both creativity and materialization! He can express his ideas 100%. Those spirit weapon masters who can't design can't do that.

"Junior Shi Jia, we're on the same team, can't you give me a discount?" Liu Zhan felt his wallet bleeding, even though he hadn't spent a single penny yet.

But he was a poor student, unlike his cousin Liu Yuan who was well-off.

"Hmph!" Dai Yuxuan sneered, "Liu Zhan, don't expect someone who's greedy for money and would even betray his teammates for money to have any conscience!"

The atmosphere in the car froze instantly upon hearing this. "Dai Yuxuan, shut up!" Lu Tianxue glared at him.

"Junior Shi Jia, don't mind him, he's just talking nonsense," Liu Zhan quickly reassured Shi Jia.

Shi Jia shook her head and calmly looked at Dai Yuxuan, "I don't think I've offended you!"

Dai Yuxuan sneered, "You haven't offended me, but I just can't stand traitors like you!"

Shi Jia's face turned cold. "Me, a traitor? Betraying my teammates? Tell me? What did I do to make you, all of you, misunderstand me like this?"

"You don't even know what you've done?" Dai Yuxuan looked at Shi Jia with disgust.

Shi Jia was furious, as if the team she had favored had lost. "Senior Liu Zhan, tell me what's going on. If things aren't clarified today, it will be hard for me to stay on this team any longer."

Lu Tianxue's expression changed, and she nodded to Liu Zhan.

Liu Zhan's expression was complicated. "Junior Shi Jia, did you agree to hunt with the Greenery Team?"

"No!" Shi Jia was baffled. "Where did you hear this rumor? And why didn't you ask me about such an absurd thing? Is your Qinglan team so generous that you're willing to let your team's spirit cleanser help other teams?"

Shi Jia looked at the members of the Qinglan team with an expression that said, "You're an idiot."

Lu Tianxue's expression was somewhat unpleasant. "Liu Yuan called last night, saying that she had received the spiritual artifact you manifested, which would be perfect for going out for trials. She asked if we wanted to come along. She also said..." She took a deep breath, "...that you agreed, and if we were willing, we would go for the trials together."

"Nothing else?" Shi Jia raised an eyebrow.

"No!" Actually, there are many, but they are all kinds of data about magical artifacts.

“First of all, yesterday Senior Liu Yuan did indeed request to come to the Black Zone trial with us. It was us, the Blue and Green Team, not me! Secondly, I didn’t agree. I only said that if they wanted to come together, I would ask you.” Shi Jia looked at Lu Tianxue speechlessly.

“Senior Lu, I don’t know how you misunderstood.” Shi Jia thought of Liu Yuan’s character, his art of speaking, and the similar personalities of Lu Tianxue and Lu Tiancun, and fell silent.

Shi Jia subconsciously gave him a look of pity for someone with intellectual disabilities, "Fine, I'll forgive you this time."

"What do you mean! What do you mean you forgive the captain! Now it's a question of whether we forgive you or not!" Dai Yuxuan roared.

"Dai Yuxuan!" Lu Tianxue roared as well. "Shut up!" She now realized that she had misunderstood.

It's all Dai Yuxuan's fault for stirring things up for no reason yesterday, which made her think in the wrong direction and misunderstand junior Shi Jia.

"Sister Xue!" Dai Yuxuan was also angry. Although she was used to being scolded by the captain, she was surprised that she was being scolded by her when they should be united against outsiders.

"Apologize to junior Shi Jia!" Lu Tianxue commanded.

"Why!"

"Just because you repeatedly verbally belittled him, misunderstood him, and violated the team rules of friendship and unity, you should apologize," Lu Tianxue said.

"Impossible! I did nothing wrong!" Dai Yuxuan stared at Shi Jia with red eyes, as if she had suffered a great injustice, like a wolf cub who had lost its mother.

Shi Jia felt a chill run down her spine.

"Dai Yuxuan, if you don't obey, then my Qinglan team won't tolerate you! After this trip, you'll be leaving the team!"

"What?" Dai Yuxuan looked at Lu Tianxue in disbelief, and before anyone could react, he opened the trunk and jumped out.

"Dai Yuxuan!"
