Hearing the referee's announcement, Lou Cheng calmed his emotions and bowed. He turned and walked towards the entrance of the changing room at the edge of the stadium. He seemed to hear the sighs from across the mountains and rivers.
Ke Ke, Yan Xiaoling and Brahman must be very disappointed, even more so than me …
Entering the aisle, Lou Cheng took his phone from Auman. Just as he turned on the light, he saw Yan Zheke's message.
The girl said, "The Clown is really giving it his all …"
"Yeah, I didn't expect this … He's treating the arena battle like a life and death battle …" Lou Cheng sighed.
He knew Gu Jianxi's fighting style very well, but he didn't expect him to be so aggressive after just a few rounds. He was ruthless to his opponent and even more ruthless to himself!
Martial artists who practiced the unique skills of the Death Sect did have the weakness of not being able to last long. But the problem was that they had only fought for a short while. The Clown was still far from his limit. He didn't have to risk his life like this!
This was more of a life and death battle than a life and death battle!
As for the safety of both parties, the referee wandering around the edge was only the host and witness. He wasn't in charge of such matters. It was all up to the judgment of the Physical Invulnerability Mighty Ones.
In popular words, as a Physical Invulnerability Mighty One, don't you know if you can block the opponent's attack and what kind of damage you will suffer?
As for accidents caused by not being able to hold back, it was very rare for a Physical Invulnerability Mighty Ones. Even if it did happen, there was a high probability that the opponent would only be seriously injured and not killed. If someone deliberately made a mistake, there would be video evidence. Once confirmed, they would be the enemy of the entire world.
Yan Zheke followed with a sighing emoji.
"The Clown's fans are resenting you …"
"Resenting me for what? I didn't deliberately burn him down there. He was the one who ran into me … "Lou Cheng replied, annoyed and amused at the same time.
Yan Zheke laughed until tears came out. "They resent you for not holding on long enough. If you had held on for a few more rounds, the Clown would definitely have exposed himself …"
Lou Cheng laughed and couldn't help but shake his head. His mood was inexplicably better. The depression from losing the match had dissipated.
If there were miracles every time, it wouldn't be a miracle!
Being able to enter the top 16 while surrounded by First Pin and titled Mighty Ones was enough!
Of course, this is only a temporary satisfaction. Wait until next year, I will take a step further!
As for the "King" competition in December and the "Super Class" competition in early January, I won't participate in them. I'll leave more time to learn all the physical invulnerability chapters and solve all the problems I found in the "Master Battle".
Reinvigorated, Lou Cheng sat on the sofa and watched the upcoming showdown between the strongest while chatting with Ke, who was on her way to the campus of Connecticut University. Halfway through, he switched to the group chat and tagged Peng Leyun and the others.
"It's time to consider what to eat!"
"You adjusted so quickly." Ann Chaoyang seemed to have been paying attention to this all along. Soon, he sighed with emotion.
"Against an opponent like the Clown, the chances of the weak defeating the strong is very slim. But if the gap between the two sides isn't too big, then it's possible to set up a trap for the Clown's desperate fighting style." Peng Leyun discussed the battle earlier with great interest.
"Yes, those who are good at swimming will drown, and those who are good at riding will fall. The strongest and most commonly used method is often the source of failure." Ren Li replied in a genteel manner. In the end, she added, "My master just used the Clown as a case study to educate me."
After discussing for a while, Lou Cheng saw the food pictures that Little Fairy had deliberately sent. He quickly emphasized in the group chat,
"Shouldn't the focus of our discussion be what to eat?"
"… I know a food blogger who lives in Jiuqu. Let me ask her." Peng Leyun seemed to have just remembered that there was a serious matter.
"You know a food blogger? Priest, which part of you looks like a foodie? Are you having an affair? "Lou Cheng asked in surprise.
Peng Leyun answered seriously, "Back then, when I was browsing Weibo, I suddenly thought of some problems. I wasn't paying attention, so my hand slipped and I followed her. I wanted to unfollow her immediately, but she sent me a private message excitedly, saying that she likes martial arts very much and has been following me all this time … I was too embarrassed to unfollow her. Later, we would chat for a bit and share our Weibo posts."
"You don't have to say anymore. An explanation is a cover up, and a cover up is the truth!" Lou Cheng teased Peng Leyun with an evil smile.
"I really don't. I don't know her that well." Peng Leyun quickly replied and seriously emphasized.
Tsk, Priest is still an innocent little boy … When it comes to this kind of topic, the veteran would either change the topic and not dwell on it, or joke with himself. Basically, he wouldn't explain seriously …
Amidst his teasing, Lou Cheng wisely stopped the topic and tagged Ann Chaoyang instead.
"Hipster, when is your flight?"
"Tomorrow morning." Ann Chaoyang posted a screenshot of his flight ticket.
"Then let's set it for tomorrow night." Lou Cheng made the final decision.
At this time, Peng Leyun received a suggestion and relayed it,
"She said that the high autumn crab is fat, and now is the time to eat crabs. The spicy crab in Jiuqu has a unique flavor that is different from other places. It's pretty good. She recommends Fresh Taste."
"Sure, I'm fine with it." While typing, Lou Cheng recalled the different spicy crab he had eaten. Saliva formed in his mouth.
"Me too." Ren Li didn't have much opinion on food.
"Oh yeah, there's something." Peng Leyun added a dazed expression. "When I was asking, I mentioned that we were having a meal together. She wants to join in the fun and broaden her horizons. She said that she's a loyal fan of Lou Cheng and wants to get an autograph and take a picture with her idol. If you guys aren't willing, I'll turn her down."
"I'm fine with it. You'll be responsible for the person you brought." Lou Cheng smiled rather complacently.
He didn't expect that a random person he met would be his fan. This feels pretty good!
"Then I'd like to see what kind of girl worships Lou Cheng." Ann Chaoyang replied, amused.
"You make it sound as if worshipping me is weird …" Lou Cheng complained.
Ren Li emphasized, "She has to promise that she won't talk nonsense in the future!"
After some discussion, the matter was settled. The next day, Lou Cheng woke up early to train and video chat with Yan Zheke. After his afternoon nap, he planned to train for another three hours.
He turned over and sat up. He wasn't in a hurry to get off the bed because the tent was set up very badly.
As a vigorous Mighty One with physical invulnerability who hadn't had his wife by his side for more than a month, such reactions and occasional thoughts were normal.
Taking a deep breath, he calmed his mind and controlled his body. Very quickly, Lou Cheng returned to normal. He changed his clothes and headed to the training room attached to the hotel.
At 6: 30 pm, he asked Auman to book a car. He arrived at Yipin Fresh and found a private room.
Pushing the door open, he immediately saw a fresh beauty with medium long straight hair wearing a thin white sweater and Peng Leyun, who was staring blankly at the girl beside him.
Obviously, there's no adultery … Lou Cheng was slightly disappointed.
The beauty with light makeup, clear eyes, and pink lips stood up. She extended her hand with a smile. "I'm Peng Xi, your loyal fan. I like the miracles you've been creating. I like your struggle and perseverance."
Her breasts were very impressive. When she stood up, she even trembled a little.
Lou Cheng didn't look sideways. He extended his right hand and lightly bumped it with Peng Xi. He smiled and said,
"My pleasure."
At this moment, Ren Li and Ann Chaoyang came in from outside. Peng Xi introduced herself again. At the end, she said self-deprecatingly,
"I didn't expect you guys to be so close in private. When I heard about it, I was very curious. Plus, my idol is here, so I shamelessly came to get a free meal. I hope you guys don't mind. I won't tell anyone about what we talked about today."
Girls who liked to make fun of themselves were never annoying. Ann Chaoyang nodded in agreement. Ren Li glanced at Peng Xi's breasts, then retracted her gaze. She looked a little lost.
Then, she sat in the seat furthest away from Peng Xi.
After ordering spicy crabs, steamed hairy crabs, and many other signature dishes, Peng Xi took the initiative to start a conversation.
She smiled and said, "I was browsing Weibo and saw a reporter suggesting to hold a Heavenly Son Competition for you guys, Wisdom King, and Living Buddha to choose the strongest Heavenly Son. I feel that this is a provocation. What do you guys think?"
"Not interesting." Ren Li shook her head.
"I feel that our opponents aren't limited to such a small area. There's no point in talking about a Heavenly Son Competition when you're a Physical Invulnerability expert. If you're capable, you should get the title."
My opponents aren't just Wisdom King, Living Buddha, and Priest. There's also The Clown, Spear King, Dong Baxian, Taoist Sword, Warrior Sage, Dragon King, and many other Mighty Ones!
"That's right." Peng Leyun came back to his senses and nodded in agreement.
Ann Chaoyang smiled bitterly. "I feel like I don't have the right to speak …"
As they chatted, the dishes were laid out. The steamer basket with the hairy crabs was also served. Peng Xi picked one up, dissected it skillfully, and divided it into different parts. She passed it to Peng Leyun.
"Try it. Although it's not a local specialty, it's not bad."
"Thank you," Peng Leyun replied politely.
Then, Peng Xi dissected another one and passed it to Ann Chaoyang.
"Thank you. The taste is quite authentic." Ann Chaoyang, who was in Huahai, smiled.
After that, Peng Xi picked up another hairy crab and dissected it skillfully. Then, she placed it on Lou Cheng's plate.
"My idol, try it." She smiled like a flower.
Lou Cheng glanced at the crab on the plate and smiled subconsciously.
"Thank you. You peeled it really well!"
After saying that, he suddenly froze. He felt that this sentence and this scene were very familiar.
In an instant, bits and pieces came back to him. He remembered the scene from back then. Back then, Ke Ke was peeling the crab for him and teaching him the Yan Shi routine.
"Not bad. It's quite delicious!"
"Wrong answer. Zero points!"
"You should say, 'You peeled it really well!' That's the correct answer! "
…
The past was vivid in his mind. Every word entered his ears. For a moment, Lou Cheng was in a daze like Peng Leyun.
Hearing his answer, Peng Xi was stunned for a moment. Then, she smiled and said,
"You're a little different from what I thought …"
One look and you can tell that he's the type that knows how to please girls.
Lou Cheng collected his thoughts, smiled and shook his head. He focused on eating the crab. Peng Xi peeled one for Ren Li. Ren Li politely picked up the intact hairy crab in the steamer basket and threw it into the air.
When the crab fell, Ren Li raised her finger and wrapped it with a breeze.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
The crab shell fell piece by piece. The white crab meat and attractive crab roe flew out and fell on Peng Xi's plate, piled up neatly.
"I'm not very good at peeling crabs. That's all I can do." Ren Li picked up the napkin and wiped her fingers. "Well, courtesy demands reciprocity."
Peng Xi was a little dumbfounded. After a long time, she smiled and said,
"I want to shout, 'Coach, I want to learn martial arts …'"
After filling their stomachs, it was late at night. Peng Xi started the car and proposed to send Lou Cheng and the others back to the hotel one by one.
"My assistant is already here." Lou Cheng said perfunctorily. Peng Leyun and the others also politely refused.
After everyone left, he put his hands in his pockets and wore glasses. He strolled on the road full of fallen leaves. After walking for a while, he remembered to take a taxi back.
