Chapter 211: Blowing the Roof Off
You know, Gold-ranked Spirit Beads were already extremely rare!
You couldn't buy them even if you had money!
And Jiang Nan was offering to let them pick whatever spirit technique they wanted?
How could he be so resourceful?
Xia Yao giggled. "Xiao Ala! You're amazing!"
Zhong Yingxue's big eyes curved into crescent moons. "Mmm~ We'll have to choose carefully, and then reward you properly!"
"What kind of reward does Xiao Nan want?"
Jiang Nan's expression turned serious. "Xuexue! I don't want any other reward! Having you by my side is the best reward there is!"
Zhong Yingxue froze, then blushed so hard she looked like she might steam, burying her face in her clothes like an ostrich.
"You... you bad!"
Xia Yao ground her teeth. No way, no way, Xiao Nan was way too smooth with his words!
She'd have to watch out!
Beside them, Wang Dong's head was practically sprouting horns from stress as he silently wept.
Just look at Jiang Nan!
Then look at himself—he'd taken out three girls and hadn't even sparked anything...
On the train!
Jiang Nan finally got his phone charged.
As soon as he opened Weibo, the sudden explosion to 500,000 followers really startled him!
The "Humanoid Gundam" had gone viral across the entire internet!
Someone had even clipped the video of him stealing milk!
And the comments below were even harder to look at!
What was worse was that the official account had directly changed Jiang Nan's verification to "Pacifier War God."
Jiang Nan: !!!
Could they have any shame?
He didn't want that title!
Fuming, Jiang Nan angrily posted a Weibo update!
From iPhone 11 Pro Max
Nan Shen: Accepting pacifier ads. Highest bidder gets me!

One was a group photo taken during skydiving!
The other was the final group shot of Jiang Nan and his three teammates plus the bear at Qiandao Lake Spirit World!
Comments exploded within a second, hitting 99+!
Instantly detonated!
"Pfft hahaha! Has Nan Shen given up on himself? Already starting to hustle for ad money?"
"Such a bright smile!"
"I'm using this as my desktop wallpaper! Bear One and Bear Two cracking me up!"
"Beautiful! I'm stealing Nan Shen!"
Little Tangtang: "Getting handsome again! Congrats on the win!"
Chu Qing: "Does the pacifier taste good?"
Little Fish: "Didn't even get full!"
Nan Shen: ???
How dare you say that after drinking dry so many cows?
Just then, a bloodcurdling scream came from the compartment next door!
"Let me go! Let me go! Open the window! I want to die!"
"I won't live anymore! I'm going to lie on the train tracks!"
It was Qin Shou's scream!
Jiang Nan and the others froze. What happened?
Then they saw a video shared in the class group chat!
Title: "I don't know if Qin Shou is human, but he's definitely a beast!"
They clicked it!
It was a meme video of Qin Shou!
He was shown being flung around on a cow's horns, and then 20-plus grown men hanging on a heifer to steal milk!
With the pumping "Laser Rain" BGM playing in the background!
It was pure brain poison!
Jiang Nan burst out laughing on the spot. He hadn't realized so much had happened while he was going wild with the Gatling!
Qin Shou was absolutely the second hottest topic right after Jiang Nan!
Just in the form of a meme video!
Now Qin Shou had become the undisputed king of meme material lists!
Not even "New Treasure Island" or "Bulgarian Demon King" could compete!
He was number one!
Jiang Nan didn't dare watch anymore—he was afraid he'd laugh his eight-pack abs right off!
He opened WeChat and approved a batch of friend requests. Shen Miao and Guo Guo were among them!
He replied to a bunch of congratulatory messages.
Just then, his phone buzzed!
It was a message from Mountain Cat!
Luo Tianhong: "Good work! Pat pat on the head!"
Jiang Nan grinned, feeling a warmth in his heart.
Nan Shen: "ღ(๑¯ω¯๑)ღ"
"Any Dark Night missions lately? I'm about to hit Silver! And I don't have any Spirit Beads yet!"
Luo Tianhong: "No need for you right now. You just got back. Take a good rest!"
"Hurry up and get to Silver! I'll figure out the Spirit Beads!"
Nan Shen: "Rub rub~ Don't work too hard. I'll give you candy next time we meet!"
Luo Tianhong: "(￢‸￢)"
Jiang Nan: ???
Mountain Cat used an emoji?!
This... this had to be fake, right?
Yeah! She must have pressed the wrong button!
It was way too adorable...
On the other side, Shen Miao also sent a WeChat!
"Nan Shen, want to grab a meal together sometime?"
Jiang Nan chuckled. "We're planning to go to a beachside amusement park. Want to come?"
"Yes yes yes yes! Guo Guo is coming too!"
Nan Shen: "Bring your swimsuit!"
(͡°͜ʖ͡°)✧
"Got it! Hehe!"
Back at school, just as the principal had said, a welcome party was held for Jiang Nan and the other competitors!
A stage had even been set up on the sports field, and a professional celebration band had been hired!
They really went all out!
Students rushed over after school, faces full of excitement!
As Jiang Nan and his group entered, waves of cheers grew louder and louder!
The students looked at Jiang Nan with admiration in their eyes!
They hadn't missed a single exciting moment from the All-Star match!
After a speech, the principal awarded Jiang Nan's team a full 3 million in scholarship!
Qin Shou and Wang Dong's teams also got 2 million and 1 million!
Jiang Nan was grinning from ear to ear!
On stage, the band was playing some ancient music from the last century!
The principal looked delighted, but Jiang Nan was cringing inside!
The students were also speechless. What was this stuff? It didn't fit the mood at all!
Jiang Nan covered his face. "Can't take it anymore! I can't listen to this! We just won a championship, and it feels like we're being sent off to a funeral!"
"Where did they find this band?"
Lu Ming, the "Iron Butt Little Prince" beside him, said, "The funeral shop two streets over..."
Jiang Nan: ???
Seriously? They really hired a funeral band?
Couldn't they be a little less cheap?
Lu Ming grinned. "If you think it's bad, why don't you get up there? You've got skills, right? Instruments should be no problem!"
Jiang Nan declared confidently, "How could I not?"
"I'm a professional at playing retreat drums! Just wait!"
With that, he walked toward the stage!
Lu Ming: ???
What the hell?
"Playing retreat drums"? That's literally "backing out"!
Wait!
He was actually going up there!
When Jiang Nan stepped on stage, everyone froze. What was he doing?
Xia Yao patted Zhong Yingxue's shoulder. "Look! Xiao Nan, Xiao Nan!"
Zhong Yingxue was stunned. "What's Xiao Nan going up there for?"
Jiang Nan walked over to the band members and said, "Can you play something more exciting?"
The band leader patted his chest. "Sure thing, bro! You want a graveyard rave, I can hook you up!"
Jiang Nan: ???
What the hell?
Was this guy that professional?
What kind of gigs did they usually do?!
Jiang Nan casually picked up a suona from the stand.
"Make some room?"
The leader was surprised. "Oh? Bro, you want to give it a try? That thing ain't easy to play!"
Jiang Nan rolled his eyes. "Just play and see!"
[Skill triggered! Suona Performance: LV0!]
[Adding skill points: 1100!]
[Skill upgraded! Suona Performance (Intermediate): LV0!]
In an instant, the music started!
It was the theme song of Slam Dunk!
"Until the End of the World"
Jiang Nan was surprised. The old bro had taste!
The rhythm-heavy music kicked in, instantly pulling the whole crowd in!
The students' eyes began to light up!
Jiang Nan wiped the suona, adjusted the reed.
Everyone stared blankly.
No way? Could that song actually be played on a suona?
And since when did Nan Shen know how to play the suona?
Just then, Jiang Nan took a deep breath!
The next moment, a piercing, soaring suona sound rang out!
It completely overwhelmed the accompaniment, stealing the spotlight like the final touch of a masterpiece!
The entire atmosphere exploded!
As the "hooligan of instruments," the suona had no rival in the music world!
"Holy crap! That's incredible! The suona starts, and I got goosebumps!"
"God-tier move! He can even play the suona?"
"And he's playing THIS song on a suona? It's too addictive!"
"Head rush! Massive head rush! Haha! Who cares, let's just party!"
"When the suona sounds, your parents might as well dig your grave!"
Zhong Yingxue and Xia Yao stared in shock at Jiang Nan on stage playing the suona!
No way...
Could Xiao Nan really pull this off?
Wu Liang: "There's nothing my Nan Ge can't do!"
