Hearing Lou Cheng's words, both Li Mao and Cai Zongming looked happy, as if they were hungry and thirsty. They had enough strength to obtain the certificate in April, but were delayed by the national competition. They have waited until now, and as a
The defending champion, Songda, is undoubtedly the seed in the division and will enter the group directly. It will not appear on the stage of the new university martial arts tournament until the end of November.
He Zi and Wang Dali were both excited and apprehensive. Sometimes they thought they had a good chance of getting the 9th Vocational Certificate if they gave it a try, but sometimes they felt that they were still not ready and it would be safer to wait another six months. There was no need to suffer abuse.
As for Jinlu and Mu Jinnian, they have an indifferent attitude. For them, there is little hope of breaking through, and it is more about seeing and accumulating practical experience.
"Senior Brother Lou, Coach Lou, we haven't played a game for a long time. I'm applying to practice in the team to prepare for the final competition!" Wang Dali, who looked like someone released from a labor camp, raised his hand and suggested.
"Okay." Lou Cheng nodded with a smile without hesitation.
With his current strength, he is more than enough to be their referee.
"I'll sign up first, I want to challenge He Zi!" Wang Dali was the first to come out, his eyes were bright and decisive, and he had been planning for a long time.
"Why?" Lou Cheng blurted out in surprise.
Why do you feel so angry and resentful?
Wang Dali replied with a look of sorrow and anger: "The last few times I played Werewolf, she always teased me to be the first to kill me for whatever reason. This crappy game is unplayable!"
As soon as he finished speaking, He Zi, whose hair reached her ears, burst into laughter with the other female team members.
Who makes someone look fierce?
"What a deep hatred..." Lou Cheng sighed with emotion.
"Coach Lou, Senior Brother Lou, we will have some fun this afternoon and then have a dinner party. Do you want to join us?" Hearing this, He Zi asked expectantly.
The eyes of the freshmen who had just joined the special training team, regardless of gender, immediately focused on Lou Cheng.
National Day holiday, special training in the morning, nothing to do in the afternoon!
Feeling the eyes full of expectation and invitation, Lou Cheng thought for a while and said:
"I won't participate in the game. I have something to do in the afternoon..."
In the morning, I have to work part-time as a coach, and I also have to spare time to video chat with Keke who is free in the evening. It is almost impossible to exercise, so I have to make up for it in the afternoon. This will be my domestic routine for the past one or two years, and there will be no sudden changes.
It won't change easily if something happens or something unexpected happens.
When everyone's expressions instantly turned to disappointment and frustration, he added with a smile:
"It's no problem to have a dinner together. You have made a reservation and give me the time and place."
"Okay, okay!" Deng Yang and others responded in unison, becoming excited again. In the subsequent actual combat training and daily practice, they were all full of motivation and enthusiasm.
It was approaching eleven o'clock, and after confirming that Yan Zheke had finished his homework and reports, Lou Cheng corrected everyone and asked them to practice in groups. Then they entered the locker room and, in a quiet environment, recorded every change in the martial arts club.
Shared with a former teammate named Yan.
When the chat came to an end, he walked out, planning to go to the cafeteria to fill his stomach while the girl was taking a shower and wiping her face, and then returned to the dormitory to continue the video.
At this time, a beautiful freshman wearing a white martial arts uniform with black borders trotted over from the women's locker room. His eyes were excited and his cheeks were red and he said: "Coach Lou, can you sign your name for me? No, two
.”
"Okay." Lou Cheng usually would not refuse such a request, and said with a smile, "Call me Senior Brother Lou, Coach Lou has been offline. Look, it's already past twelve o'clock."
The girl was amused and her nervousness eased a lot. She unfolded the white T-shirt she was holding in her left hand, handed the signature pen to Lou Cheng, and said crisply: "Brother Lou, sign this first."
Lou Cheng didn't say much, he picked up his pen and wrote his name on the front of his clothes.
Damn it, I haven’t signed an autograph for a long time, and I’m all unfamiliar. Although it’s not unfamiliar, it doesn’t look very good...
After putting away the T-shirt, the girl took out a talisman-like necklace from her pocket. Its pendant was golden, like some kind of mythical beast in legend.
"Brother Lou, can you engrave a name on the pendant?" The freshman girl nervously took out the stylus used for micro-carving.
What the hell... At this moment, Lou Cheng was almost dumbfounded. This was the first time he had seen such a request for signature.
The girl full of student spirit pursed her lips and hesitated: "My cousin asked me to ask for help. She is very superstitious and has bad luck. She is always unlucky. Brother Lou, don't you have the ability to rebound curses and bad luck?
? She just wants to ask for an amulet with your signature to eliminate disasters and protect herself."
Is there such an operation? Lou Cheng was dumbfounded and was speechless for a moment.
Classmates, superstitious thoughts are unacceptable!
Hey, why do these words sound so familiar...
"Senior Brother Lou, if you don't want to, then forget it." The girl glanced at the idol and said intermittently.
Lou Cheng came back to his senses, shook his head and said with a smile:
"It's okay, I won't do it next time."
He took the micro-engraved stylus, lowered his elbow and concentrated his wrist, exerted his strength, and carved the word "Loucheng" on the golden pendant, and then handed it to the freshman.
"Thank you, thank you, Senior Brother Lou." The girl thanked her happily and excitedly. On the way back, she turned around frequently and nodded slightly.
At this time, most of the special training team members had gathered and planned to go to the reserved cafe room to play Werewolf, where lunch would also be served.
Hey, it seems that in the eyes of others, I have gradually become less gregarious and do not like to participate in activities... Maybe they will think that I am getting more and more arrogant... Lou Cheng shook his head and smiled, half self-deprecating and half sighing.
I really don’t have time...
"Why are you laughing?" Classmate Xiao Ming's voice came from the door of the locker room behind.
Lou Cheng turned his head and saw Cai Zongming who had changed his clothes and said, "I'm laughing, why don't you go to participate?"
"Isn't this nonsense? Fangyuan won't leave until No. 7." Cai Zongming replied with a look of disdain, "I told you three times, but you can't remember it and you are entering old age early?"
"Did you really say it three times?" Lou Cheng racked his brains to recall, but couldn't find any corresponding memory, and he felt confused for a moment.
"No." Xiao Ming replied sincerely.
"Come here, I promise not to beat you to death!" Lou Cheng said through gritted teeth.
Cai Zongming laughed twice and then asked: "Chengzi, how much do you think I hope to get a certificate this time when I participate in the final product competition?"
"The luck is not bad to a certain extent. It's basically stable." Lou Cheng answered truthfully.
"That's good, don't you know, during the summer vacation, when I stayed with my former classmates, friends, and relatives, it took a lot of effort not to show off my strength? You can't just jump out and flex your muscles.
Kick the pillar, or just say that I am a master now? What a loss!" Cai Zongming said imaginatively, "When I get the certificate, slap it in front of them, and there is no need to say anything!"
"What's the difference between these two methods?" Lou Cheng asked funnyly.
"Don't you think the latter method is more subtle?" Cai Zongming made an inward gesture.
"I don't think so. It's just as stupid." Lou Cheng replied unceremoniously.
Talking and laughing, making mistakes, the two of them left the martial arts venue, went to the cafeteria, and then to the academy restaurant to meet up with Fangyuan.
The next few days went by as planned. Lou Cheng booked an early flight to the United States so that he could be back in time to supervise the final product competition.
…………
Smith hummed a silent melody and walked briskly into the office. During this period, he lived very leisurely. The tasks he was assigned were quite simple, so there was no need to worry.
"It's a wonderful life, thank God, Amen!" Just as he made some coffee and sat down, he suddenly received a call from the director, asking him to come over.
What's the mission this time? Smith knocked on his boss's door with curiosity and expectation.
"You should be familiar with monitoring him. You don't need to say more, right?" The director turned the computer screen, and a familiar face came into Smith's eyes, with yellow skin, black hair, clear outlines, and a smile at the corner of his mouth.
, with the word "danger" marked in red next to it, it seems to be Lou Cheng.
Smith's eyes widened, his mouth opened a little bit, and he blurted out:
"Why is he here again?"
It’s not over yet…
…………
In the following days, Lou Cheng did not embarrass the frightened Smith. He lived peacefully, practiced in a low-key manner, and did not do anything out of the ordinary.
In order to avoid the limelight, he planned to find an opportunity to challenge Yan Zheke as a fighter in the next semester.
During the back and forth, Cai Zongming and Li Mao successfully obtained the 9th vocational certificate. He Zi barely managed to gain it after a hard fight. Wang Dali was slightly weaker and had bad luck and failed in the group stage. Jin Lu and Mu Jinnian failed.
The difference is too big. It's purely based on experience. However, the addition of four ninth-level students (Deng Yang brought his own certificates) in one breath has made the martial arts club regain the limelight in Songda, and the number of students willing to take martial arts classes has once again increased.
As a last resort, the martial arts class was added to 246 and 135 for students who failed to participate.
At the end of November, the new National University Martial Arts Association divisional group stage kicked off. Songda’s first opponent was the weakened Tianyi Academy. Lou Cheng, who returned from the United States for the third time, did not include himself in the lineup.
list, and put newcomer Deng Yang on the bench. Still like this, Li Mao, who was in charge, barely moved his fists and kicks. Cai Zongming, who dominated the conversation time, and He Zi, a newborn calf, almost completed three kills.
On the first weekend of December, Songda welcomed its old rival, Shannan University Martial Arts Club.
In the visiting team's locker room, Lin Xiaozhi, who was wearing a high ponytail and had a refreshing temperament, sighed:
"Inhuman, how can we fight like this! Fortunately, what I said last year was to wait until the year after next, uh, it should be next year. By then, Peng Leyun has graduated, and Lou Cheng is said to have entered the professional game early. This is our opportunity!
"
Even before the game started, she was already thinking about the next time.
Mu Yu "Old Man Mu" glanced at her, scanning the consecrated Buddhist beads, exquisite crosses and other items, and settled on the new clavicle chain worn around Lin Xiaozhi's neck.
"Is this amulet of yours rare?" he asked doubtfully, asking the question that had been lingering in his mind for some time.
Lin Xiaozhi smiled proudly and said:
"Yes, it's rare. There should be only such a Loucheng amulet in the world, which is designed to ward off bad luck!"
"What?" Mu Yu, Jin Dali and others were all confused.
Building becomes a talisman?
"I found someone to make a pendant that shakes the sky. I asked my cousin who just entered Songda University to sign it and give it a 'blessing'. It will definitely ward off bad luck!"
"What theory is this?" Mu Yu blurted out.
"Metaphysical theory!" Lin Xiaozhi replied confidently, "I have converted to Lou Cheng now!"
