Chapter 302: Shanbei and Sanjiang
Translator:TransnEditor:Transn
Lou Cheng was still weak since he had yet to completely recover from his severe illness, so Yan Zheke forced him to relax in his dorm.
He sniffed and opened the door, discovering thatOld Qiu and Qiu Zhigao were still in the dorm.
Havent you gone to study?Lou Cheng asked in surprise while putting down his jacket andthermos cup.
Pigs might fly ifOld Qiu abandoned his pet phrase plan your day as soon as you wake up in the morning.
While staring at the computer screen while constantly shifting the mouse, Qiu Zhigao replied without looking up,
Im waiting for the ticket!
For what? Lou Chenglaughed as he opened his wardrobe, folded his jacket, and tucked it into the corner.
The ticket for Mo Jingtings vocal concert! Theres going to be a scramble for it at half past nine!said Qiu Zhigao while staring fixedly at the webpage.
Old Qiu had started looking for a girlfriend as soon as he entered college. Unluckily, on the one hand, girls who wanted to pursue him all failed to meet his standards. On the other hand, the ones he was attracted to were not interested in him at all. So he had to remain single, devoting all his energy into his studies and idols.
Mo Jingting?Lou Cheng twisted his lips slightly and smiled before asking, Wheres thevocal concert?
Since he came back to Xing province from Moshang, his little niece Mo hadnt contacted him as frequently as before except sending a messageoccasionally as proof of her existence. For Lou Cheng it was indeed good news because he didnt have enough energy to deal with other girls.
In Songcheng, dont you know that? It was announced officially several days ago that in November she would hold a vocal concert inSongcheng! I cant miss it!Old Qiu replied excitedly, Time is up, time is up
Songcheng Lou Cheng frowned and soon beamed again.
It doesnt matter. It occurred to Lou Cheng that the Universities Martial Arts competition kicked off in November. With their previous record, most of the games would be away from home, and he wouldnt be in Songcheng for the weekend.
It would be perfect because he could avoid encountering Mo Jingting!
According to his master, Lin Que and he would take turns being the key player in the first half ofthe district contest in order to train thesubstitutes.
Of course, otherwise, why would I bother waiting to book the ticket? What a chance this is! Old Qiu said. Suddenly, he felt blue, Qin Mo intends to buy second-hand tickets at a higher price!
If you fail this time, will you also buy a second-hand ticket? Lou Cheng asked with a smile, and then climbed onto the bed and covered himself with the quilt.
Old Qiu was left gnashing his teeth in anger.
Of course! It just requires me to save money for several days!
Thats true love!Lou Cheng said to himself.
Old Qius family situation was average, just like Lou Chengs before he came into contact with martial arts. As a student, with no stable income, he still relied on his parents.
So he had no choice but to economize on food.
Lou Cheng stopped talking so he would not disturbOld Qiu. Taking out his cellphone, he found a photo sent by Yan Zheke, in which the girl was cleaning her dorm.
Smiling, Lou Cheng quickly typed praises to hisfairy.
While the girl was busy cleaning, Lou Cheng logged in Longhu Clubsforum to scan the news of the top professional tournaments and news about Mighty title-holders such asDragon King.
As afighter who had setphysical invulnerability as his goal, Lou Cheng focused on it not only as something he was interested in but also because it was closely related to him!
Lou Cheng still didnt have enough fans in his ownforum, so they seldom focus on other fighters, offering him very little news on this subject.
Could some experts tell me which house layout is better? The first post that came into Lou Chengs eyes reminded him of his mom.
One month had passed since she announced the decision to buy a new house, but obviously, she hadnt found the house yet and had even expanded the search to other areas beyond their old neighborhood.
What a bore Luckily I have transferred the 400 thousand to herComplaining about his mom silently, Lou Cheng began to take account of his savings.
On the one hand, his private instruction fee had increased to 3000 per hour. The crowds enthusiasm had died down and he only earned 40,000 yuan this time around. On the other hand, the part-time job brought him 20,000 yuan, so the balance in his account was now around 290,000 yuan after he deducted his expenditures. Lou Cheng didnt need to worry about money for the time being.
He browsed through the post, taking notes on all the useful information. He planned to call his mum tonight so that he could guide her.
As he exited the post, he saw a hot post fromUnparalleled Dragon King:
Favored fighter of the age, the battle is about to begin. Lou Cheng VSPeng Leyun!
Er They still had two months to go before the opening ceremony of the University Martial Arts Competition, and at least three months before their match withShanbei. So why was there someone paying attention to this right now? This topic had even become hot in such a popularforum likeLonghu Club! Lou Cheng took a deep breath.
At this moment,Old Qiu jumped out and shouted cheerfully,
I got the ticket! I got the ticket!
In the male dormitory area ofShanbei University.
Xu Wannian, the Martial Arts Clubmanager, was standing outside the dormitory building and browsing through the news of Heavenly Sones Competition, forwarded by someone on his phone.
Im really looking forward to it!He said to himself and then calledPeng Leyun.
Junior brother Peng, hurry down! The trainings going to start and were all waiting for you!
Okay! Peng Leyun answered concisely.
Before the sound of Peng Leyuns voice had died away,Xu Wannian saw a window in the fifth floor burst open as a figure jumped down through it.
There he goes again saidXu Wannian while sighing with his hands on his face. In the background, he could hear some freshmen screaming,
Someone jumped off a building!
Someone jumped off a building!
All of a sudden, the figure, while in midair. expanded as he stretched out both arms, like an eagle, and glided gracefully before he landed.
The moment he stepped onto the ground, there seemed to be a small earthquake.
Lets go.taking advantage of the rebound, Peng Leyun flitted to Xu Wannians side and greeted him with a smile.
Taking a glance at where he landed,Xu Wannian didnt find any obvious traces left, which shocked him and left him singing the praises of this junior brother.
He was getting more and more powerful!
There was dead silence. All the freshmen around looked as if they had seen a monster.
Just then, the dorm supervisor rushed out and yelled,
Peng Leyun! Why didnt you take the stairs again!
What if you scared someone?
Instead of acting like an elegant but indifferent master, Peng Leyun shrugged and put on an embarrassed smile and said, I was thinking about a problem, a very difficult one, and out of habit I took the shortcut.
A shortcut? All the freshmen around widely opened their mouth in astonishment.
Xu Wannian could barely keep a smile off of his face as he apologized to the supervisor of the dorm.
Ill keep an eye on him!
After saying this, he hurriedly left the crime scene withPeng Leyun.
What do you think about the post? he asked, handing over a cellphone without mentioning what had just happened since he was already quite used to it.
Peng Leyun looked through it and then laughed and said,
Quite interesting. Everything will be okay as long as you dont encounter Lou Cheng.
Yeah, the idea of mysupernatural ability being subdued by him worries me. Luckily, Fang also has Big Dan now,replied Xu Wannian.
As his Corvine Mouth supernatural ability had been enhanced gradually, he had a good chance to defeat an eighth-pin or even seventh-pin warrior to some extent. However, once hissupernatural ability was subdued, his professional-ninth-pin body condition was absolutely unable to resist the attack from adan-stage fighter.
At this point, he couldnt help gossiping, Junior brother Peng, when are you going to get to the inhuman level? I heard thatRen Li will soon reach Sixth Pin, and Lou Cheng is catching up fast.
The championship of the upcoming Martial Arts Competition will be fierce. But everything would be easier if his junior brother could just step up a higher level.
As for whetherRen Li andLou Cheng would also reach the inhuman level in the next session, it was not his concern since he would soon graduate from the university!
His face was clean, his eyes clear.Peng Leyun looked up at the skies and murmured to himself,
When
The light in his eyes gradually emptied, and his movements became diffused, as if moving forward by instinct, but he was able to dodge obstacles like trees, stones, and frolicking students.
Ah, junior brother Peng has gone into a trance again, even when he was walkingsaid Xu Wannian while sighing. He turned his thoughts from the Martial Arts Competition to the red-light district ofPingjiang, as well as the girls there.
Pulling down his collarband, Xu Wangnian felt his body heating up.
In the only campus of Sanjaing.
Qu Hui, who wore a white shirt today, was floating 30cm off the ground in his Martial Arts Club Office.
Looking at the group in front of him, he put on a faint smile and said, Well, what do you think of this discussion?
All theleading players andsubstitutes of theMartial Arts Club remained silent with their heads dropped down, as if theyhad done something wrong and dared not say anything.
Luo Haizhe, you speak first.Qu Hui had the authority to look down on others since he was also theMartial Arts Clubs coach.
Luo Haizhe was tall and simple, the childishness of his face had faded. He touched his half-bald head and replied,
Those beasts ofSongcheng University are growing too fast. Last year it was a walkover, this year they have two dan-stage warriors, and Lou Cheng is close to Seventh Pin.
It was just like a nightmare!
Of course, there were talented fighters and Mighty Ones in the university martial arts circle. However, Dan-stage warriors were still scarcely seen in most schools. All in all, Dan stage was the realentry-level of martial arts. Though Sanjiang was a famous university with several professional-ninth-pin warriors in the previous sessions, no graduate had ever become a Big Dan and let Qi arise from within their body!
So, how difficult was it to reach Dan stage?
Given the fact that two students of Songcheng UniversityMartial Arts Club had reachedDan stage within one year, wasnt that the same as cheating?
It was because of their talent, and we cant do anything about it no matter how envious we are.Qu Hui crossed his arms and said insincerely. Then, all of a sudden, his facial expression changed and he said, Haizhe, you are actually talented. Even if you arentPeng Leyun,Ren Li,Lou Cheng or Lin Ques match, and cant reach the inhuman level. You are sure to get to the Dan stage. But look at yourself now, youre such a playboy! Youd better stay away from your evil associates!
Okay, Lou Haizhe replied and lowered his head.
This was his greatest shortcoming. He couldnt deny it.
After scolding Luo Haizhe,Qu Hui turned his gaze to another team member and frowned before saying,
Be careful. You are also likely to reach the Dan stage. Dont you want to take a step further before graduation? Then youll have a good life in the future.
Yin Xiangxi put on a wry smile and said, Weve known each other for more than three years and you know my character.
He was famous for his radical fighting style, being at ease, never using any defensive play unless it was absolutely necessary.
Because of this shortcoming, he had been injured several times in the recent years even though the referees had stopped him in time. His talent was also wasted since he was unable to keep practicing martial arts.
They were all troublemakersQu Hui stared at the cellphone on the table without saying more to them.
In the discussion of thisdivision, they only mentionedShanbei andSongcheng University. The fighters they mentioned werePeng Leyun,Fang Zhirong, Lou Cheng,andLin Que, which meant they had totally ignoredSanjiang College! They had totally ignoredQu Hui!
Sorry, Ive also reached theDan stage and improved mysupernatural ability!
Shanbei,Songcheng University, just wait for my surprise!
