Xu Keke stopped the angry Gao Jiale and took two steps toward Luo Xi. "You want to play fairly and justly, but don't confuse that with your intentional injury. Don't make it sound so noble; the latter is a despicable act."

Rosie remained unmoved. "Stop talking nonsense. On the court, it's all about playing. It's about winning and losing. If you're useless, who can you blame?"

Xu Keke knew that she was being unreasonable. Reason is for reasonable people. For those who are unreasonable and act tough, there is no other way but to subdue them.

So-called hegemony is based on force, not on reason.

"Then let's have another match!"

After saying this, Xu Keke turned to look at her female classmates. Some of them had played, and some hadn't. Xu Keke calmly scanned each of their faces, "If we had another match, would any of you want to play?"

Xu Keke's voice wasn't loud, but it instantly silenced the playground. Everyone waited to see what the second-year high school girls would say. Unlike the earlier commotion, not a single girl in this class spoke. Those with a sense of shame looked away. A few others glared at Xu Keke, expressing their dissatisfaction with her dragging them into this mess through silence and their eyes.

The female students who had gone on stage with Rosie were the first to laugh.

Xu Keke's deskmate, the girl named Li Wenxiu, who was just as frail as Xu Keke, said softly, as if afraid that Xu Keke would lose face, "Meng Dong, we just finished a game and we're very tired. We should rest for a while and talk about it later."

Xu Keke laughed. She had been standing on the field for half a day, how could she be tired?

Xu Keke didn't say another word. She turned around, picked up the ball from the ground, walked to the net, and said, "Come on, I'll take on all six of you by myself. Let's play another game. This time, I promise I won't dodge."

Gao Jiale looked at Xu Keke, unsure whether he should intervene. He actually wished he were a girl, so he could help her gather a teammate; otherwise, how could they fight?

Xu Keke dribbled the ball to the service point and looked at the other side.

All the students were stunned, just as Gao Jiale had thought. One person against six, how could they possibly win? And this petite yet composed girl... she was just too amazing! The boys watching from the sidelines were excited, ignited by her indomitable spirit. Win or lose, this girl named Meng Dong had already achieved legendary status today.

“We’re coming, Mengdong, we’re on your team.”

Gao Lan walked over from the side with a few girls. "Rosie, didn't you say that the loser's turn would be us from the third year of junior high? The five of us plus Meng Dong, we'll fight you."

Rosie snorted coldly, "Fine, let's fight then."

She gathered everyone together and discussed the matter in private.

Gao Lan led his men up to Xu Keke. Xu Keke gave Gao Lan a grateful smile. She hadn't expected her 'little brother' to be so reliable at such a crucial moment.

Gao Lan reminded her, "They are some of the students on the school team, and they have won awards in the province."

Xu Keke guessed it: the students at this school weren't very good at studying, but its school team was very famous.

"Just pass the ball to me and don't worry about anything else."

Xu Keke gave them a brief instruction and then stood in front. After the opposing team finished arranging their formation, Rosie's position was actually opposite Xu Keke's.

The game started, and Rosie's shot was still aimed at Xu Keke. But this time, the tall girl next to Xu Keke intercepted the ball first. She saved it and then passed it to Xu Keke.

Xu Keke smiled slightly at Rosie across the table, jumped up, and then smashed the ball, which hit Rosie, who was defending in front of her, accurately and powerfully.

Rosie hadn't even finished her catch when she was knocked back half a step. From the expression on her face, everyone could tell that the blow must have been quite severe.

The junior high school girls understood Xu Keke's intention. They used the same technique for the next few balls.

They tried to catch the ball from various positions and then pass it to Xu Keke. Xu Keke didn't stand on ceremony and passed it to Luo Xi one by one, just like Luo Xi had done to her earlier.

Of course, Xu Keke didn't just aim for Luo Xi. After a few shots, she figured out the pattern and started to show off her skills appropriately. Some of the shots she spiked weren't very powerful, making Luo Xi think she could return them, but the ball was a little further away than she expected, and she ended up falling to the ground.

The school didn't have any sports facilities. The so-called volleyball court was just a volleyball net strung up on the playground, with the ground all dirt. When Rosie finally got up after her dive, she was a mess. She was covered in dust, and her hands were scraped and raw.

Even Xu Keke had to admit that this girl was quite determined; even so, she didn't call for a stop.

But Xu Keke wasn't one to mince words. Don't underestimate weak opponents; when they have the power to bully you, they become stronger than anyone else. On her last ball, Xu Keke forced Luo Xi to turn her back and receive the ball with her back to the basket.

The whole room burst into laughter. Rosie looked even more disheveled than Xu Keke had been earlier.

"Alright, timeout!" The PE teacher appeared on the sidelines, hands on his hips, seemingly out of nowhere. Regardless of who called the timeout, Xu Keke was exhausted. She walked over to a few girls and gave them each a high-five, without saying thank you. Having teamed up together, having united against other teams, their camaraderie didn't need any further formalities. From that moment on, they were all one of them.

The boys watching from outside were thrilled. Especially the boys in the second year of high school, a few of them whispered among themselves, "Our girls are such a disgrace, they're not even as good as the junior high girls."
