Stop pretending, I'm a security guard, a five-star general!

Even so, this year's preliminary rounds are still dozens of times more difficult than in previous years.

Thinking of this, everyone looked troubled and sighed.

The students from Jiangnan No.1 Middle School were no exception; their expressions were extremely solemn and tense.

"Qin Yu, what do you think?"

Lin Qingxue looked at Qin Yu beside her with a serious expression, wanting to hear his opinion.

But when she turned her head, she was immediately stunned.

Qin Yu was seen touching his chin with his right hand, looking melancholy, as if he were deep in thought.

Lin Qingxue assumed the other person was also intimidated by the difficulty of this preliminary round, so she patted his shoulder and softly comforted him:

"Qin Yu, don't put too much pressure on yourself. We'll work together, and we can definitely do it."

However, Qin Yu still shook his head, sighed deeply with a pained expression, and said:

"Little Xue'er, I'm lamenting why God is so unfair!"

"Qin Yu, what's wrong with you? Don't scare me!"

Seeing that Qin Yu was about to go crazy, Lin Qingxue asked with some concern.

"No! God, why are you so unfair! Why are you so kind to me? You're so good to me, how are the others supposed to live?"

Qin Yu spread his hands and sighed with emotion.

Lin Qingxue: ? ? ?

At this moment, Lin Qingxue's pair of bright, sparkling eyes were wide open, a clear look of bewilderment in them.

What is this guy talking about?

The others were also completely bewildered by Qin Yu's actions. Liu Damao couldn't help but step forward, pat him on the shoulder, and ask curiously:

"Old Qin, have you lost your mind?"

"Get lost! Are you out of your mind?"

Qin Yu waved his hand, then said in a low voice:

"Let me tell you, we're absolutely guaranteed to take first place in this preliminary round without any doubt."

The others were all taken aback upon hearing this.

"Holy crap! Did your grandpa really pull some strings for you?" Liu Damao exclaimed with surprise.

Upon hearing this, all the other team members around him immediately turned their gazes toward him, their faces filled with judgment.

If anyone dares to use connections, they will not tolerate it!

Qin Yu's lips twitched involuntarily, and he cursed Liu Damao inwardly as a complete idiot.

Fortunately, he reacted quickly and immediately shouted:

"Yes, my grandfather pulled some strings for me, which allowed me to become a security guard at Bigui Garden. I avoided taking forty years of detours compared to you!"

The others were stunned upon hearing this.

Good grief, they thought someone was using connections to get a spot in the competition, but it turns out they were using connections to become security guards?

The world is truly vast; there are all sorts of cerebral palsy cases.

Everyone shook their heads and then looked away.

Liu Damao realized his mistake and quickly leaned close to Qin Yu's ear, whispering:

"Old Qin, what did your grandfather say? Did he say we were the pre-selected champions?"

Qin Yu's face darkened, and he gave him a sharp rap on the forehead.

"Pre-arranged, my foot!"

"What I mean is, I've been to this secret realm before. The four beast kings there are all my brothers. When we go down into the secret realm this time, we'll be walking like crabs, sideways!"

Upon hearing this, the others couldn't help but twitch at the corners of their mouths and shook their heads speechlessly.

They didn't believe a single word Qin Yu said.

How could a human possibly be brothers with a monster? That's pure nonsense!

The opening ceremony lasted for nearly two hours before it ended, and the competition will officially begin the following day.

Therefore, after the opening ceremony, all the participating teams hurriedly returned to their hotels to research information about this secret realm, Huaguoyuan.

Qin Yu and his group returned to the hotel entrance.

However, just as they stepped into the hotel, they saw a tall and burly figure standing in the lobby like a guardian deity, arms crossed, his face full of menacing intent, his gloomy gaze fixed on everyone entering the hotel.
