Evolutionary Superstar

Oreo’s expression darkened upon seeing everyone laughing at him like he had become a joke.

He felt like he was being humiliated and glared at Lin Haoren with a wronged expression. This caused everyone else to laugh even more.

They had never seen such rich, human-like expressions in a cat.

This tuxedo cat was certainly very special.

Fang Ning’s pearl-like laughter was the hardest; she was brought to tears by laughter.

At the same time, she understood why Wei Xinya adored Oreo so much. Such a smart and interesting tuxedo cat was simply too cute and lovable.

Just how was this cat trained to be like this?

Fang Ning couldn’t help but glance at Lin Haoren, the owner of the tuxedo cat.

’He must be quite a skilled trainer,’ she thought.

After everyone had a good laugh, Director Chen clapped his hands twice to draw everyone’s attention to him.

"Alright, now that everyone has become familiar with each other, gather around. I will brief everyone on today’s challenge," Director Chen stated.

"Qingshan Warehouse No.13 is home to a fierce stray kitten, titled Ironpaw Duchess. Previous rescue efforts have failed, and now, it is up to us to save the Ironpaw Duchess and give her a forever home."

"Your group will split into two teams to compete for the rescue. The winning team will be rewarded, and the losing team will have to accept a penalty task."

"You can choose who to lead the team among yourselves. However, each team can only have either Oreo or Xiao Ren."

"Question!" Wei Xinya immediately raised her hand.

Director Chen glanced at her and permitted with a nod. "Go ahead and ask."

"Do we get to pick our teams?" Wei Xinya asked.

"How is that possible?" Director Chen smiled and said, "To ensure fairness, you will do a random draw. No.1 will have Xiao Ren, and No. 2 will have Oreo."

"Oh..." Wei Xinya felt a little disappointed, but she quickly clenched her fist with a hopeful look. "I must be on Oreo’s team!"

"I also want to be on Oreo’s team," Xu Kaichen said, nodding.

Given Oreo’s displayed intelligence, he figured having Oreo would give the team a higher chance of beating the other team in animal rescue.

After all, no matter how skilled Lin Haoren was as a trainer, it would still take him time to tame the Ironpaw Duchess.

On the other hand, Oreo had the advantage of being a cat. He could communicate with the poor kitten and help them lower its guard.

Director Chen gestured to an assistant to bring forward a box with a hand-sized hole.

Guo Zhenyu grabbed a piece of paper with No. 1 written on it.

"Looks like I’m with Brother Lin," Guo Zhenyu smiled.

"Welcome to the team, Brother Guo," Lin Haoren acknowledged with a reciprocating smile.

Wei Xinya hurriedly grabbed the next piece of paper from the random draw box. It turned out to have No. 2 written on it.

"Yes! I’m with Oreo! Hurray~!" Wei Xinya cheered with euphoria.

He Yuxin took the opportunity to grab the next piece of paper with No. 1 on it.

Qin Mo also grabbed No. 1, Xu Kaichen grabbed No. 2, and Jiang Ruolan also grabbed another No.1.

A smile immediately hung on Jiang Ruolan’s face.

"Looks like I am also in Brother Lin’s team," Jiang Ruolan said with happy relief.

Evidently, she had a higher opinion of Lin Haoren’s ability than Oreo. After all, Oreo was ultimately a cat and not as intelligent as a human.

At the same time, with already 4 people in Team One, Lu Chengxi and Fang Ning were automatically assigned to Team Two to balance the numbers.

"Gather around your teammates and quickly decide on a team leader and a team name," Director Chen instructed.

Everyone followed the instructions without complaint.

Lin Haoren glanced at his teammates: Guo Zhenyu (29), Qin Mo (34), Jiang Ruolan (31), and He Yuxin (27).

Then he compared them to Oreo’s team: Lu Chengxi (26), Xu Kaichen (23), Fang Ning (24), and Wei Xinya (22).

Suddenly, Lin Haoren laughed and said, "Looks like we accidentally formed a senior division. We have the advantage in experience, maturity, and wisdom."

Guo Zhenyu, Qin Mo, Jiang Ruolan, and He Yuxin were taken aback. But after comparing their Team One with Team Two, they couldn’t help but laugh, too.

"Pftt~! How can it be so coincidental?" Giggling, Jiang Ruolan quickly turned to accuse Director Chen, "Did you rig the random draw box, Director Chen?"

Director Chen immediately raised his hands in defense.

"Ruolan, you can eat whatever you want, but you can’t say whatever you want. I definitely didn’t rig the random draw box. I am also surprised by this coincidence."

"Is that so?"

Everyone saw Director Chen’s earnest look and felt that he didn’t seem to be lying.

"Does anyone have ideas for our team name?" He Yuxin asked in Team One.

Lin Haoren smiled and suggested, "How about Retirement Home?"

"Hahahaha..."

Guo Zhenyu and Qin Mo couldn’t help but laugh, while Jiang Ruolan and He Yuxin both forced a smile.

"Any other ideas?" He Yuxin asked with a helpless look.

"I quite like Retirement Home. Let’s just go with it," Guo Zhenyu voiced his opinion.

"I second that," Qin Mo added with an approving nod.

He Yuxin and Jiang Ruolan both glanced at each other and saw the helplessness in each other’s eyes.

It seemed like they were stuck with Team Retirement Home.

Meanwhile, Team Two also settled on a team name. It was called Youth Squad, suggested by Xu Kaichen after overhearing Team One’s team name.

Lu Chengxi actually had another team name idea, but lost due to majority votes. Wei Xinya and Fang Ning had both voted for Team Youth Squad.

As a result, they have Team Retirement Home versus Team Youth Squad, a competition between the older group and the younger one.

"Alright, now that we have a team name, who should be our team leader?" Guo Zhenyu asked.

"I’m not interested. You guys can decide among yourselves," He Yuxin said politely.

Lin Haoren smiled and also said, "I’m the youngest and newest member around here. I think I will also pass."
