"Hmph, a bunch of country bumpkins!"

Wen Ai looked in the direction of the voice and saw that it came from a cub.

The other creature was very cute; its pointed little horns indicated that it was a lamb, but its disdainful expression was unpleasant.

Cooley, caught up in the fun, heard the other person call him a country bumpkin and immediately jumped down from the tree menacingly: "What did you say?!"

"I didn't say anything wrong, you country bumpkin!"

"you!"

Wen Ai stopped the two who were about to get into a fight, saying, "Little friend, we're having fun here and we're not bothering you. How can you say such things?"

The lamb held its head high, its face full of disdain: "Hmph, what's so special about this blue pine tree? You all think it's something rare and amazing, am I wrong?" Not far away, a nursery worker ran over and asked what was going on. The lamb's eyes darted around, and it actually started crying and complaining.

Orange ran over and growled and bared her teeth at the annoying guy, while the lamb trembled in its teacher's arms.

"How can you bully a cub like that? What's the big deal about saying a few words?" The caregiver was biased and wouldn't listen to Wen Ai at all. Even with his good temper, Xiao Liang couldn't hold back anymore. He stood aside with a dark look on his face, about to make trouble, when he heard Wen Ai say, "I'll report this cub. I wonder if he can still participate in the competition?"

The lamb was taken aback. Wen Ai continued, "The competition requires the children to be sunny and kind. I recorded everything you just said to my little one." He shook his personal terminal, and the lamb visibly panicked, but still stubbornly insisted, "I didn't say anything." He then tried to drag the bewildered teacher away.

Now that things had come to this, the other party understood perfectly well. He only had time to apologize to Wen Ai before chasing after the lamb.

Xiao Liang shook his head, rubbed the panting Kuli, and said, "It's okay, we'll beat him to a pulp in the match!"

"Okay!" Kuli waved his fist, and after being coaxed a few times by Wen Ai, he excitedly went back to playing.

Just because Kuli is guileless doesn't mean others aren't. Xiao Li flew over angrily and landed on Wen Ai's head: "That little lamb is so annoying." Luo Xiaomi nodded seriously, while Wen Ze looked at the lamb not far away, still acting willful, and curled his lips in disdain.

Seeing his funny antics, Leng Fan couldn't help but poke his little face with his tail, only to have his fur ruffled by Wen Ze instead.

The other kids had run far enough away to hear, and only found out about it when they gathered together for dinner. They all patted their chests and promised that if they encountered this guy in a competition, they would beat him to a pulp, which made Wen Ai and Xiao Liang laugh.

Blue Pine Star not only has endless blue pine forests, but also a large patch of blue muhly grass. When they grow together, they look like a dreamy blue and pink ocean, where many cubs like to roll around and play hide-and-seek.

Because it is a genetically modified plant, it doesn't matter if the cattail is crushed; it will recover its fluffy original shape on its own after a while.

Wen Ai also joined the "battle," but she kept picking up this and that, and could never find the "target" child.

"Haha! Got you two!" Xiao Liang was in high spirits and used his snake tail to hook Miao Yang and Wen Rui, killing two birds with one stone!

The two little ones kept twisting and turning, shouting for another round.

……

After letting the kids have a blast all day, Wen Ai couldn't let them have it so easy the next day. She went to the organizer to get the competition rules and explained the important points to the kids.

He held the fluffy little ones in his arms, or they lay at his feet or rested on his shoulder, and he exclaimed how happy he was. In the evening, he even took them to scout out a location in advance.

On the third day, Baiwen Orphanage set off with great momentum towards Lansongxing's competition venue!

To accommodate the nearly one hundred participating orphanages from an entire star system, the organizers chose to hold the competition at the foot of the northernmost landmark on Blue Pine Star—Northern Mountain. Construction began a month ago on the previously barren land, dividing and building different venues for the competition. Hearing the news, many businesses set up stalls around the area to promote their products.

The children were scattered across various venues. Xiao Li and Wen Ze were in Zone Z, competing in singing and knowledge-based events respectively. Leng Fan was in Zone Y, competing in supernatural abilities. Wen Rui and Xiao Mi were in Zone X, competing in rock climbing and speed-based events respectively. Kuli was in Zone A, choosing the most common cub competition.

Fortunately, the matches were at different times, otherwise Xiao Liang and Wen Ai would have been unable to attend in person.

The first morning's participants were Xiao Li, Wen Ze, and Ku Li, while the afternoon's participants were Leng Fan, Wen Rui, and Xiao Mi.

The organizers of the "All-Round Baby King" competition had designated rest areas for each orphanage. When they arrived, several parents were already there, and the babies ran over to their parents as soon as they saw them. The organizers held an opening ceremony, and to make it more lively, they used their special abilities to conjure water and fire. Crystal-clear water jets gushed from the ground, and flames danced in the air, sometimes resembling a fire dragon coiling, sometimes like a phoenix spreading its wings, water and fire coexisting harmoniously.

At this moment, the wind began to swirl in the venue, and the water columns and flames, guided by the wind, became more dynamic, sometimes converging into a huge water and fire lotus, and sometimes dispersing into countless tiny water droplets and sparks, like stars in the night sky, which drew applause and cheers.

The organizers warmed up the crowd, and the host went on stage to say some encouraging words. It was clear that he was well-versed in the psychology of cubs. The female orcs present were fine, but the cubs and male orcs listened with shining eyes and responded enthusiastically.

Wen Ai couldn't help but feel a surge of warmth in her chest. The children beside her were the future of the Federation. They carried everyone's hopes, and they could make the future even better!

The opening ceremony concluded successfully. Wen Ai led Wen Ze and Xiao Li to Zone Z, while Xiao Liang led Kuli to compete in Zone A, which was not far away. After the competition, they could hear Xiao Li singing.

Xiao Li snorted arrogantly. Wen Ai could tell that she still relied on Xiao Liang quite a bit. The other children could choose who to go to the game with or go for a stroll with their parents.

The matches in Zone Z are not mainstream and are considered very niche, so the audience seats are not even half full, the venue is pitifully small, and the set-up live broadcast room is like a stagnant pool, with everyone except the host lurking in the shadows.

This already shows the organizer's foresight. Even if the competition is not popular, it still has a place. Singing competitions are okay, but knowledge competitions are really unpopular. These nearly 100 orphanages could not even gather 50 participants.

When Wen Ze stepped onto the stage, the previously quiet live stream room began to ripple.

"Ze Zai!"

"Xiao Ze is so cute!"

Others didn't know about Baiwen Orphanage; they just saw a cute baby appear and it attracted a lot of attention in the chat, so they asked who it was. The chat room was filled with comments, and it gradually gained some popularity.

The host in charge of Zone Z breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this. Even though he was a parrot beastman, he couldn't withstand such a cold atmosphere. Fortunately, the audience spoke up.

The contestants come from all age groups, but the overall age is relatively high. Four-year-old Wenze is just a little kid among them, sitting obediently in his seat.

At this moment, the live stream chat exploded with comments again. A little boy with blue hair walked into the arena. He was very cute, with a mushroom haircut, ice-blue eyes, light blue ear fins slightly open, and light scale patterns on his face.

"Welcome, little Lanxi!!"

Lan Xi is a baby at the Fish Bubble Nursery on Blue Pine Star. This nursery only admits fish babies and is equipped with very complete facilities. Lan Xi is a star baby there.

This time, he not only signed up for the knowledge competition, but also for the singing competition.

Wen Ai noticed him too and glanced at him again.

Lan Xi sat down next to Wen Ze, quietly waiting for the competition to begin.

The preliminary round consisted of taking a test. Considering the young age of the children, they were equipped with a single-person voice system to help them understand the questions. There were twenty questions in total, and they had one hour to complete them.

This is too difficult for the cubs!

How can anyone sit still for an hour!
