On the central stage, the song and dance performance was in full swing, but the audience's response was quite cold, as if they were still immersed in the previous game.
It was only then that Lao Zheng and others finally came to their senses. They glanced at each other and noticed the residual shock in each other's expressions.
"Every time I thought I had determined Lou Cheng's limit, but every time I saw him break the limit I imagined." One of the companions said in a messy manner.
"Yes, there are surprises every time, and astonishment every time. It reminds me of the days when Wu Sheng and Dragon King debuted." Old Zheng rubbed his forehead.
The companions sighed and sighed, and finally gave Lao Zheng a thumbs up and praised him for his good vision. They had discovered Lou Cheng, a dark horse that couldn't be any darker, from the very beginning, and they had always maintained their confidence and never wavered.
"Haha, Lao Zheng, you made another bet before, how much did you win? Isn't it time to treat the brothers to a meal?" A certain companion joked.
Old Zheng's face changed slightly and he smiled bitterly:
"I bet that Ye Youting wins..."
"Ah?" His companions looked at Lao Zheng in amazement and amazement.
Lao Zheng sighed: "I'm not a fortune teller. Before the competition, who would have thought that Lou Cheng would actually win Ye Youting!"
He couldn't help but curse and vent his inner emotions.
…………
Lou Cheng had no way of knowing what the audience was like outside. He was lying on the bed in the emergency room with normal saline hanging on him, waiting for the doctor to see if the high fever had subsided.
He held the mobile phone in his right hand, turned on the camera function, took a picture of his left hand during the infusion, then logged into QQ and sent it to Yan Zheke, saying with a pitiful expression: "This is an experience I haven't had in five or six years!"
Lou Cheng has been relatively healthy since he was a child. Especially after he started growing, he only occasionally had a cold or a fever. He just took some medicine and was cured quickly. He didn't need any injections. He hadn't experienced the feeling of being pricked for several years.
Yan Zheke responded with a cold sweat expression: "I only passed the water last year, but it is much better than when I was a child. Before practicing martial arts, I had to go to the hospital two or three weeks ago. It took three years of training to be considered healthy.
"You haven't seen the photos of me in junior high school and primary school. I looked really sick. Now, I can barely catch up with the standards of a normal person."
"I really want to see your photos from junior high school and primary school. They must be very cute and cute." Lou Cheng's head was dizzy, which didn't stop him from flirting again.
"Tsk, you are still so exaggerated even though you are wet. How do you feel now?" Yan Zheke asked with concern.
Lou Cheng thought for a moment and pressed the on-screen keyboard with one hand: "The fever seems to have subsided a little. It's not so hot anymore. But my body is very weak and my head is also very dizzy."
Yan Zheke "covered her mouth" and smiled: "Hello, Lou Daiyu!"
After saying that, she said with a "bright-eyed" expression: "By the way, what happened when you competed with Ye Youting? How could you explode with that level of power?"
She seemed to have been holding back this question for a long time. After confirming that Lou Cheng was getting better, she finally asked.
Lou Cheng had long been thinking about how to explain this matter to Yan Zheke. At this time, he made a fist-shaking expression with tears streaming down his face: "I didn't want to either, it was all an accident! At that time, I just wanted to lose with dignity,
So I try my best to support myself and keep squeezing my body, and every minute I can hold on counts."
"You also know that my physical strength is at an abnormal level. I have never reached the limit. But this time I finally reached the limit, and then I felt like something exploded inside my body, erupting with terrible power, pushing me to have to
Attack and defeat Ye Youting."
"As soon as this power was released, my whole body felt hollowed out. I almost fainted on the spot. You can watch the video of the game. At the end, my face should be ugly or abnormally flushed."
Most of what he said was true, but he replaced the golden elixir with physical strength to cover it up.
Yan Zheke responded with an expression of knocking his head and scolding: "You say if you don't seek death, you won't die! People develop talents or abilities step by step, for fear of losing control, just like Wang Xiaoshuang, the disciple with supernatural powers from Daxing Temple.
Because the fire control ability went out of control and burned down several houses, he was sent to Daxing Temple to practice meditation in order to control it. What are you doing by squeezing your physical talent to the limit? Now you know the consequences!"
"I know, I know, what Coach Yan taught me is that after this experience, I won't dare to do it again!" Lou Cheng felt warm after being scolded, and he hurriedly agreed.
It is really a joyful and happy thing to feel the concern of the girl you love!
And after this experience of almost dying, I really don't dare to affect the golden elixir like this again. I must find a better and safer way to digest it.
Yan Zheke posted a cat hugging a dried fish: "As long as you understand, I'll look for a chance to see if I can get some information from my grandpa on how to gradually develop talents or abilities. If it doesn't work, you have to ask Coach Shi
Yes, he looks like he has a lot of background, and he must have something in his stomach."
"Coach Yan is so nice!" Lou Cheng replied with a "bad smile". He felt his eyelids were heavy and fatigue was emerging. He wanted to just fall asleep, so he added, "If I don't reply later, I must be too tired to sleep."
It’s fine, don’t worry.”
"Humph, I'm not worried, I'm just scared by you." Yan Zheke talked about his previous feelings with a dumbfounded expression, "When you were suppressed by Ye Youting at first, I thought it was quite normal.
While I was watching, I was thinking about how to tease you, but you suddenly exploded, as if you had completed the Super Saiyan transformation. I was so surprised that I didn’t blink for a long time. When I came back to my senses, I started to feel something was wrong.
, this is not a comic, how can we not pay a price for such an outburst? So I called you quickly."
Lou Cheng felt weak and tired, so his typing speed naturally slowed down. Just after reading this message, before he could type out a few words, Yan Zheke continued with a sigh: "Poor Miss Ye,
It must have been a huge blow, no one could have imagined that she would lose beforehand, you can’t even imagine it yourself!”
"Life lies in surprises~ It can be considered a small miracle. The fund for treating you to a feast has increased by 10,000 yuan!" Thinking of the wonderful results, Lou Cheng felt a little better.
"Then I will make you poor!" Yan Zheke said with a cute expression as if he was eating noodles from a big bowl.
I'll feed you for the rest of my life... Lou Cheng replied silently.
"By the way, Orange, have you grabbed your ticket?" Yan Zheke changed the subject and brought up an important matter related to Lou Cheng's return home.
Lou Cheng suddenly woke up: "Oh, I almost forgot about this."
"You look like you are now, how can you have the energy to wait and grab it? Give me your ID number and I will help you get it." Yan Zheke said with a "Come on, praise me" expression.
Lou Cheng was overjoyed and said hurriedly: "Classmate Yan Xiaoke is really beautiful and kind! Give me your Alipay account and I will transfer the ticket money to you first. If there is not enough, I will make up for it."
After chatting about this matter for a while, he fell asleep unknowingly. Various bizarre and bizarre scenes flashed through his dream, and they all passed by quickly without leaving any trace.
When Lou Cheng woke up, it was already close to five o'clock. His head was still a little dizzy, and his body was still weak. However, the high fever had almost subsided, and his forehead and cheeks were no longer hot.
"This is a bonus of 10,000 yuan for the top eight. The organizer sent it directly after knowing you were here." The doctor handed over a large stack of hundred-yuan banknotes.
Lou Cheng exhaled and scratched his head: "I forgot to sleep, I really bother you."
"No, no, your opponent in the quarterfinals is Bai Song. Fight well and create another miracle!" The doctor clenched his fist and waved his arms, making Lou Cheng stunned for a moment.
…………
After taking a taxi back to the hotel, Lou Cheng had no appetite at all. After taking medicine, he lay on the bed and chatted with Yan Zheke for a while, then fell into a deep sleep again. He slept until 7:30 the next morning, missing his morning exercise for the first time.
His head regained consciousness, as if he had finally recovered from a serious illness. He first tried to meditate, looked inside his body, and checked for any hidden problems. Then he logged on to QQ and saw Yan Zheke proudly pushing up his glasses.
His expression said: "I got a ticket for you. It's 11:40 noon, so you should be able to compete in time, right? But I think you probably won't be able to compete because you were so ill yesterday."
"Coach Yan is really straight-forward, I guess I have to give up." Lou Cheng replied with an aggrieved expression.
Yan Zheke said in a daze: "How is your health?"
"The fever is completely gone, and I feel hungry. My muscles all over my body are still very sore, and I don't have much strength. I can barely carry my luggage and walk, let alone compete in a competition." Lou Cheng felt as if a serious illness was giving way to a minor one. Currently,
Cold symptoms have appeared.
"It's okay, okay, you were expected to lose yesterday, but you managed to survive today very decently!" Yan Zheke said with relief.
After chatting for a while, Lou Cheng got up and washed up. He saw his face in the mirror looking haggard.
He watched for a minute, then suddenly raised his right hand, rubbed his thumb and index finger, and created a small flame!
This was what he gained when he looked inside just now. He found that the remaining heat of the golden elixir flame seemed to be completely integrated into his body. Of course, the power was tiny and useless.
"What's this?" Lou Cheng smiled and said to himself in the mirror, "Congratulations, you have awakened the power 'Lighter'! The power can only light a cigarette!"
He blew out the flickering flame.
However, this can be used to give Yan Zheke a surprise by performing magic or something. Anyway, everyone is used to strange things like supernatural powers, and Yan Zheke has personally experienced yesterday's accident, so he has no idea about awakening supernatural powers.
You should be mentally prepared.
…………
After packing his luggage, Lou Cheng put on his backpack with some difficulty, checked out of the room at the front desk, and took a taxi to Yanling City Martial Arts Hall.
"Is your supervisor here?" he asked Ning Ling, the girl at the service desk.
Ning Ling asked in confusion: "What are you asking your supervisor for?"
There was more awe in her eyes, and she was no longer as lively and approachable as before. A warrior under twenty who could defeat Ye Youting always felt unattainable!
Lou Cheng thanked her for her previous support and said with a smile: "I used the secret method to activate my potential in the first battle yesterday, but it suffered backlash. I really can't hold on any longer, so I have to give up."
"Oh, oh, that's it..." Ning Ling's eyes were full of surprise, as if she had solved the biggest doubt in her heart, and then she led Lou Cheng to find the person in charge of the competition.
"Are you going to withdraw from the competition?" The person in charge of the competition seemed to have expected it, and his tone was quite calm.
Lou Cheng repeated his explanation just now, and finally said: "If I can fight, I will definitely give it a try."
The person in charge of the competition chuckled and said: "I guessed this result when I saw your appearance in the emergency room yesterday. Of course, according to the procedure, I still have to find someone to check you. You can't just say what you say.
Right?"
He called two alchemy masters, including Liu Zunyu's bodyguard leader Lao Sheng. They gave Lou Cheng a rough examination and confirmed his physical condition.
…………
Carrying his luggage, Lou Cheng walked to the gate of the martial arts venue. Just as he was about to step out, he suddenly felt an inexplicable feeling.
This door is the door for you to become a true warrior. The self that first stepped here and the self that is about to leave completely have completely changed.
He looked back at the stadium, and his mind flashed through the games he had experienced and his own shouts and cheers, as well as the glorious road he embarked on again and again.
Yanling, one of the most important stops in life!
The feeling of nostalgia lingered in his heart, and until he got into the taxi, Lou Cheng was still immersed in it and couldn't extricate himself for a long time.
"Classmate, are you leaving now? Aren't you going to watch the next game?" the taxi driver, a very talkative uncle, asked casually.
Lou Cheng was a very polite person. Although he didn't want to chat, he still replied: "I have to go home. If I don't go back, I will be scolded. I have been on vacation for several days."
He slid his thumb to unlock the phone, thinking about what he should do next - Yan Zheke had to practice martial arts in the morning and couldn't chat.
"It's a pity. The following games will definitely be more exciting each time." The driver's uncle said happily, "Let me tell you, there is a dark horse in this game. It's very powerful. It's called Lou Cheng. It beats the Yiye Martial Arts School.
Ye Youting has already won, maybe we can get another upset today and defeat Bai Song too!"
"Let me tell you, I spent a lot of my personal money on him, and I just relied on him to make a fortune!"
"..." Lou Cheng was stunned when he heard this, and silently loosened his fingers. He had already called up his address book just now, and was about to call Mr. Shi.
"Hey, classmate, what's wrong with you?" The driver's uncle glanced at him.
Lou Cheng smiled dryly and said: "I don't feel very comfortable..."
It’s better to call again when you get to the train station!
…………
In a fairly tidy bedroom, Yan Xiaoling woke up.
Yesterday, she was dragged away by her best friend to go shopping. When she came back, she was exhausted. She didn't make any reservations, but she was about to start now!
She searched and found that the name Lou Cheng was rare, and there was no personal post bar or forum yet, so she clicked to create a new forum in a place where many forums such as the Dragon Tiger Club were gathered, and chose the category - Warrior.
"Forum name: Lou Cheng."
"Nature: Personal"
…
A series of information appeared in Yan Xiaoling's eyes. She browsed through it, raised the corners of her mouth, and laughed softly:
