Hearing Pan Chengyun's words, Wang Hui nodded slightly and said,
"It's good to be confident."
He turned to Fang Tong as he said, "But it's not good to be too confident. You must guard against arrogance and impatience in tomorrow's match."
Fang Tong's hair stood up, wantonly and flamboyant. His face was angular and full of vigor. He was the type that even a naughty kid would not dare to make a fuss. He replied with a blank face,
"Yes, Grandmaster."
Seeing his attitude, Wang Hui sighed quietly. This grand-disciple of his was good at everything, but he was too impatient and too arrogant. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been unable to unify his martial arts. He could release but couldn't take it back. He was only one step away from the Dan stage, but he hadn't made any progress for more than three years. He had gone from being a slightly famous genius martial artist in Songcheng to being the joke of other martial arts clubs.
He only hoped that Cheng Yun's rapid improvement could put pressure on him and reduce his arrogance and impatience …
Looking around, Wang Hui said to Pan Chengyun, "Don't worry.
"You haven't participated in any official match for more than three months, and these three months are the period when your improvement is the fastest. Your opponent will definitely not know your details and will still regard you as an Amateur First Pin fighter. But you can't be careless because of this. After all, the usual practice with Guosheng and Fang Tong is different from fighting in the ring. You have to adapt and master your improved strength so that you won't be rusty."
Before Pan Chengyun could answer, he said with emotion,
"This is a good opportunity for our martial arts club. You have to do your best to make a name for yourself."
And fame equaled money!
The bigger the city, the more hidden and difficult it was for martial arts clubs to gain benefits through their inextricable connections with the underworld.
Due to the attention of the public, the focus of attention, and the close supervision of the government, Songcheng was much more regulated and lawless than other small cities. Many martial arts clubs did not dare to neglect their own main business. Instead, they maintained their profits and made a fortune by charging high fees from peripheral students and rich disciples.
If they were not famous enough, it would be difficult to recruit people. After a long time, it was foreseeable that they would close down or take risks out of desperation.
In addition, there was a very important point. Talented and excellent disciples were always in demand. If they were not famous, who would choose your martial arts club to learn martial arts?
In today's society, the source of martial artists was actually two major selections. The first one was when they graduated from primary school and began to develop. When they were able to practice martial arts, they passed the unified test and were promoted to special martial arts schools. The rest of them went to school normally. After all, a reasonable and well-functioning society undoubtedly needed talents in all aspects. Not only martial artists, but also some professions, such as scientists, were more important than martial artists..
After this round of selection, unless one's family was rich and was willing to pay the expensive cost of practicing martial arts, most people would give up on practicing martial arts. They would treat it as a hobby and focus on other aspects. Because of this, Lou Cheng, who had followed this normal path to study, had very few martial arts practitioners around him. Most of them were amateurs.
Most of the special martial arts schools were established by the government. Relying on the resources and organizational ability that were better than all the martial arts clubs, they constantly created a large number of martial artists who were not inclined to any force in this way to enrich the military, police, and other violent departments. In view of this, Shangqing Sect, Longhu Club, and other forces also set up their own martial arts schools to train a large number of reserve disciples. Jin Tao, the Invincible Punch, was a student of Jiuqu Branch of Haiyuan Martial Arts Academy.
However, even though there were many martial arts schools, compared to the number of suitable martial artists, they were still a drop in the bucket. Only the best could be admitted, and there were bound to be cases of missing talents. Some people were even "slow to show their talent". They could only slowly show their talent at the age of 14, 15, 17, or 18. This gave the martial arts club a chance to carry out a second round of selection.
Martial arts schools were backward when it came to nurturing a large number of martial artists. However, if there were only a few dozen elite disciples, it would be like a sect's master-disciple inheritance, which was better than a martial arts school. Therefore, it had produced many famous experts, which made many young people with dreams abandon the martial arts school without hesitation after they couldn't enter a sect's martial arts society or other big forces. They threw themselves into the arms of martial arts schools.
Therefore, the martial arts club, with the talented disciples as the core, even began to pay them a certain amount of salary after they had reached the level of Amateur First Pin to maintain their strength. Then, through advertising, preliminaries, local Challenge Tournaments, and other ways to make a name for themselves and attract amateur amateurs and rich disciples. This was not only a monetary gain, but also a chance to find talents who had been buried for various reasons. It was also a way to expand one's network and get other opportunities to make money.
On the surface, it was martial arts, but on the inside, it was a business.
As a business, it would be strange if they were not interested in the preliminaries that were broadcasted by the local and surrounding TV stations.
Who didn't like the "advertisements" that didn't pay?
…
Humming a pop song, Lou Cheng returned to the dormitory. He felt a little tipsy and only felt that everything was wonderful. He couldn't wait to let everyone be as happy as he was.
He knocked on the door of the small dormitory next door and was not surprised to see that the rich second generation Qin Mo and Mou Yuanxing, who had brought his girlfriend, were not there. Only Tang Wen, who was addicted to games, was diligent. He almost forgot the date of last semester's exam because of this. If it weren't for the people around him who reminded him, he would have definitely failed with this ridiculous reason. Of course, without doubt, he still failed three subjects and was preparing for the make-up exam at the beginning of the school term.
"Where's Talker?" Lou Cheng asked.
Tang Wen, who was addicted to studying, was stunned. After thinking carefully, he said, "I think he went to the balcony to call his girlfriend."
"Oh." Lou Cheng calmed down and vaguely heard the sound of voices on the balcony.
He thanked him and closed the door so as not to disturb Tang Wen's hard work. When he was about to return to his own small dormitory, he saw the glass door of the balcony open and Cai Zongming walk in with a smile.
"Damn weather, it's so cold to make a call!" Little Ming exhaled a breath of white air when he closed the door.
Lou Cheng laughed and said, "Don't you know how to video chat in the dormitory?"
"There are people in the dormitory. Some private words are not convenient to say, you know." Cai Zongming deliberately raised his eyebrows.
"Dirty!" Lou Cheng scolded with a smile.
"Bah! You're dirty! I'm talking about mushy words of love. What the hell are you thinking? You've been in a relationship recently, so your blood is rushing down? "Cai Zongming went all out to ridicule Lou Cheng.
Lou Cheng clicked his tongue and said, "Are your words of love not dirty? You're an old hand! "
After that, he looked around and said in a low voice, "Casanova, tell me if there's a problem with what I'm doing …"
He briefly explained that Yan Zheke was not ready yet, that she accepted his confession after hesitating, that she needed some time to get used to it, and that he had tried to hold her hand successfully today. In the end, he said, "Is this not showing respect to her thoughts? Is this too reckless and impatient?"
Cai Zongming snorted and said, "Who asked you to confess randomly? If you follow my steps, there won't be any problems. But, you did a good job today. You can't follow the pace of a girl in this kind of thing. You must strike while the iron is hot! "
"Really?" Lou Cheng put on the attitude of a serious student.
Cai Zongming smiled with his hands in his pockets and said, "The current state of your goddess is like standing on a swamp, unable to resist the temptation of the world of love below. She has already accepted her fate and given up resistance. She is slowly sinking, but she hasn't adjusted her mentality yet. She wants to slow down and gradually get used to it. If you pull her too fast and let her sink too fast, out of fear, uncertainty, and lack of love, it will indeed cause a reverse mentality. It is very likely that she will start to hate you."
"But you can't do nothing and let her adjust her mentality by herself. First of all, who knows what she will think after she adjusts. Maybe it will be good or bad. Second of all, as time passes, the effect of feelings will weaken. It is very likely that she will calm down and re-examine herself. At that time, if you want to increase her favorability, it will take twice the effort for half the result. She may even say 'I don't think we are suitable for each other, let's break up'."
"So, you have to take advantage of the current situation and close the distance between you and her within the limit to increase her favorability. This is the meaning of 'strike while the iron is hot'. You can't really not get close to her just because she says no. Sometimes, even she herself doesn't know whether she wants it or not."
Lou Cheng felt that it was better than ten years of studying. He nodded sincerely. "You are indeed the Casanova …"
Cai Zongming chuckled and said, "Accepting the confession means establishing a relationship. Establishing a relationship means holding hands. She won't be too resistant to this and is mentally prepared for it. However, don't go any further than that for the time being, lest you give her too much pressure and cause the opposite effect. Maintain the current trend of getting closer and closer, step by step, and slowly pull her over. Sigh, you're making this foreign dog jealous!"
"It's a pity that you don't have time to go to the capital this semester." Lou Cheng looked at Little Ming sympathetically.
Cai Zongming clicked his tongue and said, "If I don't go, she can come! I've already succeeded in bewitching her. This time, I don't need to save money. I have a lot of red packets! "
"Awesome!" Lou Cheng gave him a thumbs up.
"By the way, are you ready for tomorrow's competition?" As a member of the special training, Cai Zongming asked with concern.
Lou Cheng nodded and smiled. "Almost. I'll think about it again later."
"Then I'll help you find some audience." Cai Zongming laughed and suddenly went to Lou Cheng's dormitory. He opened the door and said to Zhao Qiang, Qiu Zhigao, and Zhang Jingye who were relaxing at home on the weekend, "Good news! Good news! Cheng is going to represent Songcheng University in the competition tomorrow. Let's go cheer together. "
"Represent Songcheng University? Cheng? "Zhao Qiang looked back in surprise and pushed his black-rimmed glasses.
"Martial arts competition?" Qiu Zhigao turned his head in surprise.
Only Zhang Jingye looked confused and didn't seem to understand.
Cai Zongming laughed. "Yes, martial arts competition. Didn't Coach Shi organize a team to participate in the preliminaries? Cheng is the main force. Tomorrow we will fight against Hongluo Martial Arts School in Songcheng. "
Because of his own arrangement, Qiu Zhigao didn't attend the first three martial arts classes, so he knew nothing about it. He stood up abruptly and looked at Lou Cheng behind Cai Zongming in surprise. "You're the main force?"
Isn't this a bit unscientific? No, it's not a bit, it's too unscientific!
Without Lou Cheng's explanation, Cai Zongming chuckled and said, "Cheng has been recognized as a martial arts genius. Now he has the strength of a Professional Ninth Pin. That day he fought with Lin Que and lost only because of one move."
"Professional Ninth Pin …" Qiu Zhigao gasped.
As an amateur, he had a deep understanding of the difficulty of rank promotion.
It took a newcomer with no rank to reach Professional Ninth Pin in half a year!
"A martial arts genius?" Zhao Qiang looked Lou Cheng up and down, as if he wanted to see something. "You didn't know who you were before?"
"Well, I didn't know much about martial arts before, and Coach Shi is a man with a lot of talent." Lou Cheng said casually.
Zhao Qiang sighed. "Of course, we have to rely on ourselves, but we also have to consider the course of history …"
"The competition is at three o 'clock tomorrow afternoon. Are you going to cheer?" Cai Zongming asked again.
"Of course! Why not? We are the masters in our dormitory. How awesome it is! "Qiu Zhigao calmed down and said excitedly.
Zhang Jingye hesitated and said hesitantly, "Can I bring someone else?"
"Who?" Zhao Qiang asked blankly.
Cai Zongming chuckled. "Model Worker, I didn't expect you to have a girlfriend without anyone knowing about it."
"Hey, hey, I'm almost there." Zhang Jingye smiled honestly.
"Damn …" Zhao Qiang blurted out and pointed at Zhang Jingye. "I understand now. Dogs that don't bark bite. When did you find a girlfriend?"
Lou Cheng also admired him. He spent so much effort and effort to get Yan Zheke. How did Zhang Jingye get a girlfriend all of a sudden?
"Haha, last semester, when I came back from self-study, I saw a group of students in the Academy of Arts shooting a Weibo video. I was curious and was invited to be an extra. I met one of the girls, and then we became friends …" Zhang Jingye described briefly.
After everyone sighed, Zhao Qiang said seriously, "Model worker, even if you have a girlfriend, you should study hard. You can't indulge in beauty. By the way, when will they shoot a Weibo video?"
Poof! Everyone burst into laughter and the atmosphere was quite warm.
…
After washing up, Yan Zheke climbed into her small bed and leaned against the Minion. She covered herself with the quilt and unlocked her phone.
She smiled unconsciously and was about to reply to Lou Cheng's message on QQ when she suddenly remembered something. She opened the browser and entered the search page.
"Meimei Bread …" She entered the name of the bakery and wanted to see if the fresh cream cake was as good as Lou Cheng said.
In the blink of an eye, the search result came out. Yan Zheke was a little surprised.
Because there was no search result of Meimei Bread, only related adjectives.
"Search on the Internet …" Yan Zheke seemed to understand something. She lifted the quilt and climbed down. She opened the fresh cream cake on the desk and tasted it.
"It's not too sweet, but it's just right …" Yan Zheke sat there in a daze, twirling her hair with her left hand and shaking the spoon with her right hand. Her dimples were vaguely visible as she gazed at the cake with tenderness.
