Starforce Warriors

Chapter 82: Small Tricks

The sky was cloudy on September 15th, and the first hint of autumn had appeared in the air. The bus from Red Flag High School slowly arrived at the gate of Longteng High School.

The bus had a capacity of fifty people. Besides the staff and the members of the school team, thirty outstanding students had also been selected to serve as the cheering squad. They were brought along to support the school team in their away game. However, the gatekeeper at Longteng High School did not open the gate immediately.

Beep beep beep.

Grandpa Qin, the driver, couldn't help but honk the horn. Four tall security guards in armor emerged from the security office.

"No honking at the school gate," the head guard said coldly. "Do it again, and we won't be polite."

"We're here for the league match," Grandpa Qin shouted out of the window.

The head guard pretended to check his light core. "It’s not time yet."

"That's nonsense," Grandpa Qin fumed. "My driving skills are top-notch, my fuel efficiency is good, and I never break the rules. We're right on time."

The head guard said indifferently, "Maybe your light core time is wrong."

"Are you picking a fight on purpose?" Grandpa Qin's temper was rising.

However, the head guard ignored him and led his men back to the security office. Grandpa Qin was about to lose it and drive the bus through the gate.

Principal Chen quickly stopped him, "Old Qin, it's not worth it..."

After all, repairing a damaged bus would cost money.

Yan Chiyu also spoke up, "This is a despicable trick to anger us and mess with our team's mindset. Grandpa Qin, don't be so rash and spread bad emotions to the team."

Surprisingly, Grandpa Qin listened to Yan Chiyu. He calmed down immediately. So the group had no choice but to sit in the bus and wait. Who knew they would end up waiting for a whole hour? Finally, a vice principal from Longteng High School appeared, smiling.

"Oh dear, i”m so sorry, the security office got the time wrong and delayed your preparation." The vice principal repeatedly apologized and ordered the gate to be opened.

The bus, spewing black exhaust, slowly drove into the campus. Everyone on the bus held their breath, stifling their anger. The campus of Longteng High School was incredibly luxurious and grand. It was much larger than Red Flag High School. It boasted elegantly designed dedicated buildings for teaching, cultivation, networking, dormitories, and dining. The athletic facilities were comprehensive.

In comparison, Red Flag High School's campus looked like a rural vegetable garden. However, the students on the bus had no interest in admiring the modern and upscale campus. The members of the school team also wore grim expressions. The bus finally reached its parking spot.

"Oh, Old Chen, long time no see." The vice principal greeted Chen Fei with a smile as he got off the bus.

He immediately grasped Chen Fei's hand with a look of deep apology, saying, "Our reception was poorly handled this time. I'm here to apologize."

By this time, Chen Fei had regained his composure. He glared and said, "Cut the crap and take us to the locker room."

Talking was pointless now. Preparing for the match was the priority.

The vice principal slapped his forehead and said awkwardly, "Oh, what bad luck. The door to the visitor's locker room is broken and hasn't been fixed yet."

Chen Fei’s peach blossom eyes narrowed as he asked, "What do you mean?"

The vice principal smiled apologetically. "Please wait on the bus for a bit longer. As soon as the door is fixed, I'll let you know right away."

"You..." Chen Fei was truly furious. "I will complain to the Education Department and the league committee about you."

"Don't be so angry, it's bad for your health." The vice principal said with a smile. "Besides, Old Chen, this isn't your first time participating in the league. You know that complaints don't work, right? Your bottom-ranked team complaining about us, a top-ten team? Isn't that just asking for humiliation?"

Chen Fei looked at the smiling face of the vice principal. He really wanted to punch him. But when he thought about the students, he held back.

Yan Chiyu limped off the bus and said calmly, "Principal, waiting a bit longer is fine."

She turned to the vice principal of Longteng High School. "A so-called strong team ranked ninth last season, using such despicable tactics against us, how shameful."

The vice principal chuckled and replied, "Being weak is a sin. Whatever you say is meaningless."

Yan Chiyu suddenly laughed and said, "In today's match, your pride, along with your despicable behavior, will be thoroughly crushed."

She turned to her teammates.

"Adjust your state of mind, don't let these clownish tricks ruin your focus," Yan Chiyu said as her gaze swept across Fang Buyi and the others. "What does it tell you when a top ten high school from last season starts using such despicable tricks against us?"

Her voice suddenly rose, "It tells you they are afraid. Our performance in the first round was so good that they felt threatened... For us, this is an honor. So, bury your anger in your hearts, unleash it in the battle, and crush them. That's the best revenge."

"Yes, Captain."

"Captain, I'm fired up."

"Longteng High School, nothing special."

"I-I-I... We w-w-will... win."

The team members roared loudly. All the negative emotions in their hearts transformed into intense fighting spirit. Yan Chiyu said no more.

The vice principal of Longteng High School still had a sneer on his face.

No wonder she was once the genius sought after by all the high schools in Liuhe Base City. She’s become the soul of the Red Flag High School team. She calmed the restless students in just a few words. What a pity. Such a genius, yet she chose Red Flag High School and wasted over two years of her time. She missed the best period to enhance her strength, and her future achievements would be limited.

"I'll go and get them to fix the door quickly." The vice principal said with a laugh, turning to leave.

Thus, the group from Red Flag High School was left waiting outside the event venue. There was no reception. Not even a place to sit, let alone any refreshments.

Two more hours passed like this. The vice principal reappeared, still with a faint smile on his face. "Everyone, thank you for waiting. The match is about to start, but the locker room door is still not fixed. We can't keep you waiting any longer. Please follow me to the arena."

At that point, Chen Fei was no longer as angry.

"Let's go." He said, waving his hand and leading the students into Longteng High School's event venue.

They walked down a long corridor into the arena. The moment they stepped out of the corridor, they were met with overwhelming boos. The enormous arena, capable of holding ten thousand people, was brightly lit. The stands were filled with Longteng High School students and some of their parents. The deafening boos pierced the eardrums of Li Xiaofei and his teammates.

"Look, the trash from Red Flag High School is here."

"A bunch of cowards. Letting them step into this sacred Longteng arena is a desecration."

"Go back to sucking milk."

"Haha..."

Various insults and provocations rained down from the stands like a torrential flood. The away crowd was full of hostility towards Red Flag High School. This was the devil's home ground of Longteng High School. The Longteng Stadium.
