Chapter Thirty-Five I've Been A Little Drifted Lately
"Charlie, you are so arrogant!" Eggsy was furious and his face turned red. Although he had always been at odds with Charlie, he actually felt very inferior when facing Charlie.
For Eggsy, Charlie is that kind of kid who is smarter than you, richer than you, handsomer than you, and works harder than you. This kind of 360-degree suppression by sea, land and air, almost without any blind spots.
Make him despair.
He finally mustered up the courage to challenge Charlie, like a dragon-slaying warrior, but what he got was Charlie's complete contempt.
"You can't beat me." He Xie said slowly and calmly, "You also know this in your heart, but you just don't want to admit it and you are lucky."
"But what is the probability of beating me by luck?" He Xie looked at Eggsy with a smile, his eyes widening slightly.
Full of courage lv1 activated!
Eggsy's heart suddenly shivered, and the anger on his face became much less intense.
He Xie looked at Roxie with the same expression and continued: "I can tell you that this may definitely be less than zero, and you will be desperate. So I will give you a chance, and you will come together. If you can beat me, each of you will win."
I scored one point, and I lost two games at the same time, so I can just pack up and go home. How about it? Think about it, there are really not many opportunities like this..."
Eggsy felt extremely humiliated, and he wanted to say directly to He Xie: Is it okay to do this?
But his reason told him that this was indeed the best opportunity!
He knew very well that he alone, unless a miracle happened, would not be able to defeat He Xie. In normal training, no one could defeat this guy who was more ruthless to himself than to others!
Teaming up with Roxy, there is a chance.
Although this is a humiliation, if you can have the last laugh, what is this humiliation?
Eggsy decided to endure the humiliation and looked at Roxy: "Hey Roxy, what do you think?"
Roxie looked at Eggsy with a strange look and said, "I refuse!"
Eggsy was stunned and said anxiously: "Why? Don't you want to defeat him?"
Roxie's eyes were even stranger: "I want to, but I refuse to accept this insult."
Eggsy was stunned for a moment, and then his mind exploded with a bang!
He suddenly understood what Roxie's strange look was.
It’s contempt and disdain!
Everyone here is proud, even the students who were eliminated before, even Digby and Hans who gave in before.
They can lose, be knocked down, or even eliminated, but they will never accept insults.
If it were the Middle Ages, based on what He Xie said just now, he would definitely receive a white glove thrown by his opponent.
This is the attitude and tone that a gentleman should have!
And what did he just do?
He actually wanted to use his opponent's insult to seek his own interests!
At this moment, Eggsy only felt his face burning!
If there is a crack in the ground, he will definitely crawl into it!
He felt like he had been stripped naked by He Xie and his ugly butt was exposed for everyone to see.
When faced with easy gains, his kind and perseverant side was completely blocked, while the cunning and greed of a gangster emerged uncontrollably.
He couldn't resist the temptation.
"Ah..." Eggsy collapsed. He roared and rushed towards He Xie.
In the monitoring room not far away, Harry closed his eyes in disappointment, unable to bear to see the next scene.
"After the assessment, let Charlie come to see me." Harry said in a low voice, turned and left.
He once told Arthur that the poor were no worse than the nobles, so he chose Eggsy against all odds.
However, Eggsy let him down. He lost. What he couldn't accept the most was that both the child named Charlie and Roxy's performance told him that nobles are more gentlemen and more noble than poor people.
reliable.
This made him vaguely doubtful of his previous thoughts and beliefs.
"He won't let you down." Arthur raised the corners of his mouth, folded his hands behind his back, and tapped the back of his hands briskly with two fingers.
Facing Eggsy who had lost his mind, He Xie didn't put in much effort. He just took a step forward and knocked him out with a knife.
Eggsy, who was lying under the ring, had his eyes closed tightly, but tears fell from the corners of his eyes.
Roxie then jumped onto the ring, moving her limbs while glaring at He Xie and said: "Psychological tactics? You did this on purpose, right?"
He Xie stood with his hands behind his hands and said with a smile: "I'm sorry that he couldn't stick to his pride."
"Do you know that if you do this, you will destroy him?" Roxy said angrily, "Even if it is competition, there is no need to be so cruel! What you do is so ungentlemanly!"
"No, no, no..." He Xie stretched out a finger and waved it gently, "Roxie, it is the most ungentlemanly thing to blame all your mistakes on others. Besides, the matter is not as serious as you think."
He Xie lowered his head, looked at Eggsy, and said: "Eggsy, I know you are awake, but don't make the same mistake again and again. At least you must have the courage to face reality instead of pretending to be dizzy and evading."
Eggsy's chest, which was lying on the ground, suddenly rose and fell violently. He suddenly jumped up and roared with grief and anger at He Xie: "What else do you want? Ah? What else do you want? Destroy me? Haha, then I'll tell you.
,you made it!"
"It seems you don't know what you got," He Xie shook his head regretfully, "Eggsy, a gentleman should face up to his shortcomings and mistakes. There is an old saying in the East, which is to know one's shame and then be brave. I believe this lesson will
Let you face it and correct it in the future."
He Xie paused and spread his hands: "You have made up for your biggest shortcomings. You are about to become a real gentleman, and you are about to usher in a more perfect you. And what you have paid for this is just one time."
It's just a failure in the assessment, I don't understand, why are you so sad?"
Eggsy suddenly felt as if he had been struck by lightning. He stood there blankly, unable to say a word.
He Xie turned his head with a smile, faced Roxie who was also sluggish, and said with a smile: "Look, many things are not as bad as you think. You can take action, but I have to tell you regretfully, you will lose."
Fail this assessment."
"I give up!" Roxie said suddenly, and then she held her head as if she was discouraged, and smiled bitterly at He Xie: "The courage I finally raised to face you has all disappeared after your words.
!Charlie, you are by no means a gentleman, you are a devil!”
"It's true sometimes." He Xie bowed to Roxie very gentlemanly and walked off the stage with a smile.
Merlin smiled and said: "Excellent psychological tactics, sharp yet gentle. Congratulations, Charlie, for winning first place in the combat assessment."
"This is my honor." He Xie said.
"I don't understand," Merlin said, "You can defeat them even if you are upright, why do you use this method?"
"I've been a little drifting lately..." He Xie suddenly became melancholy.
Merlin was stunned, whether you are beautiful or not, what does it have to do with what I asked you?
He Xie sighed and explained to Merlin: "I trained hard, and none of the students was my opponent. Even the fighting coach was defeated by me. This gave me the illusion of being invincible, and I inflated Merlin.
"
Merlin: "..."
Although your reflection makes sense, I still don't understand what the connection is between what you said and what I asked?
He Xie smiled and continued: "Fortunately, I woke up and told myself that you should never let your muscles determine your head. A true gentleman always controls his body with his thoughts. So I gave it a try to see if I could win without a fight.
A subjugated soldier."
"Ah, the power of wisdom is indeed infinite!" He Xie shook his head and clicked his tongue, then whistled happily and left.
Merlin looked at He Xie's back, then looked back at the depressed Roxie, and Eggsy, who seemed to be enlightened, and suddenly couldn't help but muttered: "You might as well get in together..."
