The backdrop can also be propped up.

Chapter 157 shows what Lu Renkui just did.

Seeing Lu Renkui's skateboarding motion, Zhao Wuyin clapped his hands and then excitedly asked Sun Xi, "When did you learn to skateboard? Can you teach me?"

"Hmm, that's possible. But..." Lu Renkui took out his phone and glanced at it, saying, "It seems we're going to be late."

"Huh? What... Oh! Right!" Zhao Wuyin suddenly realized what was happening, grabbed "Sun Xi's" hand, and ran towards the school auditorium. "I almost forgot, let's hurry! The little cake!"

Lu Renkui stumbled as he was pulled, but he still remembered to hold on tightly to the skateboard.

The two ran all the way to the school auditorium.

I really don't know how Zhao Wuyin can run so fast while wearing high heels. He climbed such a high building in those heels before. Looking at Zhao Wuyin walking so fast ahead of him, Lu Renkui thought, "This is something that not an ordinary person can do."

Fortunately, they weren't late. Zhao Wuyin and Lu Renkui drew their number plates, panting.

When Lu Renkui went to draw a number, the student holding the number box looked at the girl with dark brown hair and wearing a winter school uniform with some strangeness. He seemed surprised that someone would not take the beauty pageant seriously despite the pressure of being hung on the school wall.

The two of them drew numbers that were in the middle of the line, very close together, with only a few people between them. Zhao Wuyin was in front and Lu Renkui was behind.

While waiting, Zhao Wuyin borrowed a makeup bag from a classmate he was close to and hurriedly began to apply makeup to "Sun Xi".

After a few moments of fiddling, Sun Xi's face was adorned with exquisite makeup.

"Are you sure you don't need someone to lend you your dress and accessories?" Zhao Wuyin asked. "I saw some of my friends coming down ahead; maybe I can borrow some from them."

"No need," Lu Renkui replied helplessly. "I just need to put on some makeup, and I'll be able to skateboard fast enough."

"Alright then. Ah! It's my turn to go on stage." Zhao Wuyin said, handing the makeup bag back to the classmate, lifting her skirt, taking a deep breath, and walking onto the stage.

Lu Renkui walked up to the stage and watched Zhao Wuyin walk with elegant cat-like steps all the way to the center of the stage.

After walking to the center of the stage, Zhao Wuyin stopped, smiled at the audience, and then took off her hat.

A parrot appeared under the hat.

The parrot spread its wings, its beautiful feathers shimmering under the stage lights.

The adorable parrot flew around the arena once, but compared to the performances of System 1143 and its host in Su Hanshuang's body, Zhao Wuyin's performance was too bland, only eliciting polite applause from the audience.

Several more people went up, and when it was Lu Renkui's turn, the male host on stage said, "Ah! All the students' performances were wonderful, but so far we haven't seen a performance that can surpass Miss Su's. I wonder how the next few contestants will perform? Alright, let's welcome the next contestant to the stage."

As the male host finished speaking, the student who was supposed to come on stage—Lu Renkui, who was inside Sun Xi's body—did not walk out from the audience.

The female host, sensing something was amiss, quickly said, "This student seems a little shy. Shall we call her out..."

Before the female host could finish speaking, a heavy thud was heard, followed by the sound of feet stomping on the floor.

The two hosts felt a gust of wind blow past them; the male host's carefully styled bangs were blown off, and the female host's dress was also blown up.

"Wow, it seems even the heavens are fond of our performance, they even blew in a gust of wind... Wait, something's not right! Why is there a waiting icon on the screen?! Could that gust of wind... be part of this student's performance?!" The male host exclaimed in surprise, turning to the large screen behind him and the female host while adjusting his bangs.

The large screen displayed: "Number 294 has been captured and is now ready to be displayed."

Then six small dots appeared on the screen, jumping in turn, with a large loading icon below them.

After rushing from one side of the stage to the other, Lu Renkui pushed off hard with his skateboard.

The skateboard flew up with her, then steadily jumped over the entire step and landed on the ground.

"Haha, I'm exhausted!" As soon as Lu Renkui got off the skateboard, she seemed to have all her energy drained away, and collapsed onto Zhao Wuyin, who had come to pick her up, as if all the bones in her body had disappeared.

This stage is 200 meters long! Wait, is this the only school in the whole country that uses this stage? Does it cover such a huge area? Ah! Lu Renkui thought while taking a deep breath.

"In order to avoid the camera capturing a blurry photo of him, Lu Renkui was practically kicking his feet—you could even say he was stomping on the floor."

Lu Renkui's current state is like that of his high school days, when he bet with the best athlete in his class that he could run the 50m in under eight seconds, only to end up running it in 7.99 seconds and being completely exhausted.

Oh, the original text said that each student who went to the center of the stage needed to perform a program. Lu Renkui prayed in his heart, hoping that making a peace sign with both hands could count as a program.

"Oh, but I think I rowed too fast. I didn't notice how many fingers I held up. How many fingers did I hold up again?" Lu Renkui thought to herself as she lay on top of Zhao Wuyin, smelling his strawberry perfume.

"Hey, Little Cake, your photo is out." After carefully examining Sun Xi's face, Zhao Wuyin said happily, "Great! Your face is blurry! This photo is now useless, and you don't need to go up there again. So you won't be recorded in the beauty ranking."

But when Zhao Wuyin's gaze moved downwards, the joy in her tone vanished, replaced by doubt and worry: "Although the face wasn't visible, the hands were clearly visible."

"It's okay, I can just blur my face in the photo," Lu Renkui said weakly.

"Ah, how should I put it... little cake, take a look for yourself." Zhao Wuyin said as he turned his body so that Lu Renkui could see the photo on the big screen on the stage.

Feeling as if a thousand pounds were pulling down on her legs, Lu Renkui opened her eyes and glanced at the photo on the stage, then her eyes widened immediately.

The face was indeed blurred beyond recognition, like having Gaussian blur turned up to the maximum. But the hands were very clear, standing out sharply against the blurred face.

He only had two fingers raised on his hands.

Two middle fingers.

He was probably already a bit tired when he got to the center of the stage, and subconsciously, he gave the middle finger twice, expressing his incomprehension of this bizarre competition.

A huge middle finger.

Well, now that the photo was on the screen, it showed immense contempt to all the students sitting in the audience, including the two hosts.

It's still double.

"What a blatant disregard for future livelihoods, and a double output at that," System WQBYRZM muttered in the consciousness space.

"Stop being cheeky! I didn't bring forward the bullying point, did I?" Lu Renkui wasn't in the mood for laughter right now. The other students in the audience could just laugh it off, but if those professional bullies saw it, it would become an excuse for them to cause trouble.

"Hey, don't worry, those main characters and villains won't remember your face." The consciousness space was filled with the laughter of System WQBYRZM. "Otherwise, why do you think I'm laughing like that, haha ​​...

After hearing the system WQBYRZM's reply, Lu Renkui breathed a sigh of relief. However, the system WQBYRZM kept laughing in his mind, which was quite noisy.

Lu Renkui closed his eyes and stopped looking at the photos on the stage screen, preferring to ignore them.

Both those on and off stage were rendered speechless by this sudden and overwhelming double dose of contempt.

"Wow... this student really... delivered a wonderful, wonderful, wonderfully impressive performance. She's a student who dares to love and hate, but it's a pity we didn't get to see her face, so she can't be included in the beauty rankings." The female host stammered, trying to salvage the situation.

"Yes, yes, that's a real pity," the male host quickly chimed in. "Let's welcome the next student!"

"Little cake, how are you feeling now?" Zhao Wuyin asked, patting "Sun Xi" on the back as he saw that the matter was over.

"Ah, I'm all better," Lu Renkui said in a drawn-out voice, then got up from Zhao Wuyin and stood up.

As another student came down from the stage, Zhao Wuyin asked, "Little Cake, do you think if we go return the skateboard now and rush back, we'll still be able to see the last student go on stage?"

"Ah, I don't know either. We might not have enough time. After all, it took us quite a bit of time to get here. If we go back and forth twice, plus the time spent climbing stairs and taking the elevator, it will take even longer," Lu Renkui said.

"Who's the last student?" Lu Renkui asked—she and Zhao Wuyin were both in the middle of the line, and by the time they returned their skateboards, the game would probably be over, but waiting around would be boring. They decided to chat for a while.

"Ah, do you know about that gossip about An Yingxue at our school?" Zhao Wuyin asked.

"Ah, An Yingxue, I think I've seen a little bit of her, but not the whole thing." Lu Renkui pretended to be confused, "What happened to An Yingxue?"

"It's said that An Yingxue ran into the school heartthrob and the school bully on the first day of last semester." Zhao Wuyin whispered to "Sun Xi".

"At first, she and the two men were completely incompatible, but after a semester, An Yingxue's relationship with both men improved a lot."

"And she also has a good relationship with our school's super handsome student council president and our most handsome and youngest but super fierce and old-fashioned teacher, Mr. Fu."

At this point, Zhao Wuyin's tone was tinged with envy: "It's so nice to be surrounded by so many handsome people."

“Indeed, she can get along well with so many people and make friends.” Lu Renkui tried to guide Zhao Wuyin’s thinking in the direction of friendship.

"Ah, are they just friends?" Zhao Wuyin leaned closer and asked in a low voice, "Little Cake, do you have any inside information? A lot of people are speculating about who An Yingxue is dating."

“Maybe it’s just friendship,” Lu Renkui said. “Look, given their personalities, if An Yingxue really started dating them, none of the other three, except Teacher Fu, would necessarily be able to keep it a secret.”

"And how did you determine that Teacher Fu has feelings for An Yingxue?"
