The competitive eater blurted out, unable to hold himself back:
“There really are experts here?”
“Honey, we may have finally met our match!”
The competitive eater’s wife carefully sized up Lin Yu and Chi Qingchi.
She muttered under her breath:
“Looking at their build…”
“They don’t look like they can eat much.”
“Could they have the kind of constitution that never gains weight?”
Though she was only murmuring quietly, and they were some distance away, it still didn’t escape Lin Yu’s ears.
Putting a little pressure on the competition before the start wasn’t a bad thing.
A moment later, after the owner finished explaining all the rules, a large projector above the counter displayed a countdown.
“Everyone, get ready…”
“The contest officially begins now!”
With the owner’s shout, the venue instantly became a sea of people devouring skewers.
Chi Qingchi reacted incredibly quickly as well.
Holding a large red-willow skewer in each hand, she began wolfing them down.
The advantage of tearing the meat off the skewers beforehand was now becoming apparent.
Although the meat was still warm inside, it was within what her mouth could tolerate, rather than being so hot that she couldn’t swallow it at all.
When normal people eat, they generally chew on their dominant side.
Only after eating for a while do they switch to the other side.
Chi Qingchi was different.
She could chew large amounts of food on both sides of her mouth at the same time.
The speed of her chewing left Lin Yu dumbfounded!
She was practically a real-life squirrel that had taken a seat at Lin Yu’s table.
Amazing!
Absolutely amazing!
Who would have thought Little Chi had this kind of talent?
Back when everyone had eaten together, she had been far too restrained.
If she had shown this level of skill back then, the food on the table probably wouldn’t have been enough for her alone.
In truth, Chi Qingchi didn’t usually eat like this.
What normal person would feel comfortable eating that way?
She was only doing it because she wanted to seize as much time as possible and eat a few more skewers.
Little Lin had chosen “challenge the strongest.”
In her eyes, that was actually a sign of his trust in her.
No matter what, she couldn’t let Little Lin’s trust down so easily!
…
Keeping an eye on powerful opponents was a mindset shared by every true expert.
Chi Qingchi worked both hands at once, enduring the lingering heat as she neared the end of her sixth skewer.
She couldn’t help glancing toward the table where the competitive-eating couple sat.
It wasn’t as though she had deliberately looked for them—they happened to be diagonally ahead of her.
They were easy to spot.
Just one glance was enough to create a powerful sense of disparity in her heart.
Chi Qingchi: “!!!”
The competitive-eating couple were doing exactly what she was doing.
They were both eating continuously, working both sides at once.
The red-willow skewers in front of them had not been piled together, making it easy to count them.
The wife had eaten eight!
The husband had eaten eight!
No…
In the time it took her to look, the competitive eater had already finished two more skewers and placed them on the table.
She had been working so hard for so long.
Suddenly witnessing such a scene made it difficult not to feel discouraged.
The gap was simply too great.
She hadn’t even reached the competitive eater’s wife’s level.
Compared to the competitive eater himself, the difference was even more enormous.
It seemed the championship…
wasn’t theirs to begin with.
It was a little discouraging.
But it was also within Chi Qingchi’s expectations.
From the moment she had seen the competitive-eating couple here, she had more or less known what to expect.
That meant her next goal was simply to complete the challenge of thirty skewers!
The first few skewers had gone down quickly because she had been on an empty stomach and was still in peak condition.
Little Chi glanced at the timer.
It took about five minutes.
But it would be hard to keep up that pace from here on.
How’s Little Lin doing? How many skewers have they eaten?

for mindless slaughter, this isn't for you.] My name is Ye Shu, and I'm a transmigrator. It seems I'm supposed to be the protagonist, but that feels pretty unlikely. This world has been invaded by a system. The antagonists on the other side have suddenly become pure, flawless saints.

So, tell me guys... what are my chances of making it to the end?
