"It's that freakishly strong woman?"
Lou Cheng didn't feel anything and even wanted to laugh. His opponent was destined to be one of the best fighters of Professional Ninth Pin or even one of the masters of Danqi State. It was just a matter of probability to draw Ye Youting, which couldn't affect his mood at all.
"I've drawn that freakishly strong woman I mentioned before." He sent a message to Yan Zheke with a snicker emoji, leisurely and relaxed.
After the battle with Zhou Yuanning, he had a clear understanding of his current level. His strength was only of Amateur Second or Third Pin, but his strength involved Danqi and martial arts. He had many advantages and abnormal physical strength. If he fully exerted his strength without being restrained, he had a stable fighting ability of Amateur First Pin. When he had the upper hand in all aspects such as mentality, state and willpower, he had the hope to challenge Zhou Yuanning, who was obviously a problem with a Professional Ninth Pin. But this was his current limit and there was no hope for him to fight a stronger opponent.
On the road of martial arts, self-confidence was very important, but so was self-knowledge!
Lou Cheng had a good mentality and knew that he had only practiced martial arts for four months. Although he had made great progress, his shortcomings were also obvious, which couldn't be made up for in a few days of actual combat.
Yan Zheke quickly replied to a clapping monkey emoji, "Not bad. You stole from her and won the second round. Tomorrow it's payback. Ah Mi Tofu, everything is predetermined. This girl, Ye something, is good at tiger and leopard forms. She's fast, agile and has freakishly strong. I'm afraid, I'm afraid she'll be difficult to deal with …"
"Don't be so tactful. You mean I'm afraid I'll lose cleanly … and I want to leave the Warrior Sage Challenge Tournament with dignity." Lou Cheng deliberately used a wronged emoji.
Yan Zheke sent a smoking emoji of a singing god, "That's what you said. I didn't say that. Anyway, enjoy the battle and enjoy the martial arts."
She used the old joke again.
"Haha, let's not think about this match. Anyway, it's tomorrow afternoon. I'll relax and have a good rest tonight." Lou Cheng sent a happy declaration. He didn't want to spend the night watching videos and analyzing the battle.
There were four matches in the morning and four in the afternoon for the top 16. The key matches would be broadcasted by Yanling TV. Although there would not be many viewers, it was still considered more formal.
It would be very difficult for a martial arts battle to fill three hours with four matches. In between, there would definitely be performances such as singing and dancing, boxing, as well as interactive activities with the audience. The reason why the tickets for the first year of the "Phoenix Cup Warrior Sage Candidate Challenge Tournament" were all free was to attract attention and attract the audience, as well as to accumulate experience in crowd control.
…
"Lou Cheng?" Ye Youting looked at the table and was stunned for a while. After a long time, she gnashed her teeth and said, "Give me back my pocket money!"
Jiang Lan, who was beside her, laughed and said, "I didn't expect you to meet each other. Then I can bet on you winning tomorrow."
"I must make him understand the consequences of 'cheating' my money!" Ye Youting deliberately made herself laugh evilly.
Next, the top 16 contestants gathered in the small conference room where they had signed the integrity contract last time to receive the 5,000 yuan bonus.
When Lou Cheng stepped in, he was glanced at by many people. Some were curious, some were sizing him up, and some were admiring him. Compared to the silence in the corner last time, he seemed to have become the focus of the crowd.
This was inevitable. No matter where he went, the fact that he defeated a fighter of Professional Ninth Pin as a rank-less fighter was worthy of attention!
Li Xiaoyuan waved his hand and signaled Lou Cheng to sit over there. Lou Cheng, of course, was willing to sit with someone he knew, so he walked a small circle to the corner. When he passed by Ye Youting, he was glared at by her.
"Why are you staring at me? I didn't do anything to her, did I? " Lou Cheng was confused, but he did not bother to think about it. Anyway, after tomorrow, they would be at opposite ends of the world. There would be no chance for them to meet again.
"You owe Ye Youting money?" Li Xiaoyuan joked.
Lou Cheng shook his head blankly. "I don't even know her."
"Maybe she has a crush on me and suspects that we have an improper relationship." Li Xiaoyuan chuckled and put on a serious face.
Lou Cheng's mouth twitched twice and glanced at him. "Boy … Watch your image. Don't make such a heavy joke. Be a good artistic youth!"
This guy's appearance of a banished immortal was too deceptive!
"Hey, isn't it good to be happy in life? Besides, Ye Youting and I are not on good terms. When she sees that we look like friends, of course she hates you. "Li Xiaoyuan spread his hands.
Being from Yanling, as one of the most outstanding fighters among the young generation, he and Ye Youting had crossed paths before.
Lou Cheng's curiosity was aroused. He asked with interest, "How did you offend her? Or did she do something to you? "
Li Xiaoyuan lowered his voice and said, "It's mainly because I think she looks very strange. Someone spread the news to her."
Lou Cheng subconsciously looked at Ye Youting. Her eyebrows were thick, her nose was straight, and her eyes were not too big, but they were full of spirit. She looked quite pretty. Although she was not as beautiful as Yan Zheke, she was far from being strange.
"You really think she looks strange?" Lou Cheng also lowered his voice and asked.
Li Xiaoyuan nodded seriously. "Yes!"
Lou Cheng thought for a while and patted Li Xiaoyuan's shoulder. "Boy, you need to get a pair of glasses. It's my honest advice."
Then he added, "Why do I feel like you're still joking?"
Li Xiaoyuan looked relaxed. "My aesthetic sense has been criticized since I was a child. You're not the only one."
After two contacts, Lou Cheng found that Li Xiaoyuan was really easy to get along with. Lou Cheng was about to say something else when the person in charge of the competition had already walked up. Behind him were bodyguards carrying a black box. When the box was opened, there were bright red hundred-dollar bills inside. The other bodyguards were also carrying money detectors and other items.
"I wanted to give everyone a card with a password ending with a number. But five thousand is not necessary. Let's just give it in cash." The person in charge of the competition picked up a stack of bills and counted them with the money detector. It was exactly five thousand. Obviously, he had already prepared it.
After checking each stack, the bodyguards distributed the bills according to the order of the seats. Lou Cheng felt a heavy sense of satisfaction as soon as he held the thick bills in his hand.
Money was still very magical!
Without them, he would have to sleep on the streets tonight. If he didn't use his own money or change the ticket refund money, he would have to starve tomorrow!
Without them, he wouldn't be able to enjoy the delicious food tonight. He would still have to eat simple meals!
Without them, he would have to make ends meet with Yan Zheke at the beginning of the school year!
And this was the first money he had earned in his life, the first pot of gold he had earned with his own ability. He was no longer a child who simply relied on his parents!
…
On the bus, Lou Cheng carried his luggage and changed into his daily clothes. He looked at the navigation map leisurely. There were only two more stops before he reached the Yanling Zhang's White Noodles and Mutton Soup Restaurant that Yan Zheke had mentioned.
He had found a bank nearby and deposited most of his prize money into his card. He only had one thousand and five hundred yuan left on him for hotel accommodation and daily expenses. He felt that his budget was quite sufficient.
"I feel like I've become a millionaire." Lou Cheng sent a message to Yan Zheke.
Yan Zheke laughed with her hand over her mouth. "Yeah, Cheng is really awesome. Other people can't earn this much even if they work part-time for a month!"
"You … You're exaggerating …" Lou Cheng sent a dumbfounded emoji.
Yan Zheke replied to Leisurely Monkey pounding his chest. "I learned it from you!"
While chatting and laughing, Lou Cheng got off the bus and followed the map into a small alley. Near a residential area with at least twenty years of history, he found the Yanling Zhang's White Noodle Mutton Soup Restaurant. It was not even 5: 30 yet, but there were already people lining up in the cubicle. The restaurant was full, which showed how good the business was.
After waiting for half an hour, Lou Cheng finally got his turn. He was led to the smallest table — a table for four.
"I feel weird sitting at a table for four by myself …" Lou Cheng sent a dumbfounded emoji to Yan Zheke.
Yan Zheke sent an emoji of an onion pushing up her glasses. "Now you know the sorrow of being single? That's why I never eat a big meal alone. "
"Do you want me to put my phone across and pretend that you're here?" Lou Cheng laughed evilly.
Yan Zheke sent a scolding emoji. "You want me to see but not eat? Are you trying to break off our friendship?"
Time flew while they were chatting. Lou Cheng's order was soon delivered. A bowl of milky white fish and mutton soup, a bowl of sliced mutton, and a bowl of white bread recommended by the restaurant owner.
Lou Cheng drank a mouthful of soup first and felt his mouth was full of freshness. He couldn't help but drink a few more mouthfuls. He wanted to give a hundred and twenty-eight likes.
It was said that the fish and mutton soup in this restaurant was first boiled with crucian carps and then stir-fried mutton in the middle. It was cooked with secret seasonings until the soup turned white. The taste was rich but not greasy.
The white flatbread was eaten in imitation of the Northwest's style of eating steamed buns. It was broken into several pieces and placed into the soup to absorb the delicious juices. With one bite, the freshness of the soup and the wheat fragrance of the flatbread blended together, making one want to swallow their tongue.
Compared to this, the sliced mutton was quite ordinary, even if it was not bad.
Lou Cheng chatted while eating. He took a picture and sent it to Yan Zheke. He was severely despised. When he came back to his senses, he had finished everything. The portions of the food in this restaurant were not small, one serving was equivalent to three or four servings of Jiangnan Province.
Touching his bulging belly, Lou Cheng felt warm all over. In the cold wind, he didn't need to wear a down jacket, not to mention a sweater that he hadn't worn since winter. After practicing martial arts, he was full of qi and blood. The tight long johns inside and the down jacket outside were enough for him.
…
The new hotel had a new front desk. Although the room was not as good as the one in Lou Cheng's preview photo, it was not bad. The space was large, the furnishings were warm, the facilities were new, the carpet was thick, and more importantly, the broadband was fast!
Lou Cheng lay on the bed and felt the beauty of relaxation. He felt that every cell in his body was screaming and singing.
While chatting with Yan Zheke on his phone, he browsed the forum. As soon as he entered the live post, he saw Brahman, a junior high school girl, Unparalleled Dragon King, Invincible Punch, Pig-Riding Knight, A Plumber Eating Mushroom, and others.
"You uncles came out and bullied me because I was young. How dare you lie to me! You said my new idol was only of Amateur Second or Third Pin and couldn't beat Uncle Arena. You said my new idol was still far away from Professional Ninth Pin. You made me doubt him and didn't support him to win! Grandpa can bear it, but grandma can't. You have to give me an explanation! "
Accompanying her questioning tone was an emoji of laughing with arms akimbo. Obviously, she was showing off and showing off for her new idol, Lou Cheng!
