When picking persimmons, you should always choose the softest one. This is called avoiding the strong and attacking the weak.
“But…it seems they’ve noticed us.” Chen Xiaocao pointed to Zhang Kui and Bai Wei, who were getting closer and closer, her tone tinged with worry.
Those two people don't seem "suitable" at all.
Su Tang nodded, her face still expressionless.
"Yes, it's here."
She took Chen Xiaocao's hand, and this time, she didn't pull away.
Instead, she deliberately moved towards a relatively open area to the side, but where the mud was noticeably deeper and stickier. The mud there had reached above her calves, taking on an unsettling dark brown hue, and faintly emanated a foul, rotten smell of grass roots.
"Don't be afraid, follow me. Remember what I told you: be agile, keep your center of gravity low, and don't let them touch you easily. Use the footwork we just practiced." Su Tang's voice clearly reached Chen Xiaocao's ears.
"If they launch an attack, don't try to take the strips of cloth, and don't try to fight them."
"Huh?" Chen Xiaocao was stunned. "Then... what do we do?"
"Just splash mud all over them, get them as dirty as possible."
"Huh? Get mud on them?" Chen Xiaocao was puzzled. Aren't fights all about grabbing strips of cloth? What's the point of getting others dirty?
“Yes.” Su Tang nodded. “Sometimes, the most effective weapon is not your fists, but what the other party least wants to be involved with.”
Her words left Chen Xiaocao even more confused, but she still nodded vigorously, firmly remembering every word Su Tang said.

Finally, Bai Wei and Zhang Kui broke through the last obstacle and trapped Su Tang and Chen Xiaocao in that deep muddy area.
"Hehe, run! Why did you stop running?"
Zhang Kui's rugged face was covered in mud, making him look even more ferocious. He grinned, revealing a set of teeth stained black with mud, his eyes looking at two lambs waiting to be slaughtered.
"What did I tell you? These two little brats are all looks and no substance, they won't get very far! Now that they're in Brother Zhang Kui's hands, today I'll teach you who's in charge in the army!"
As he spoke, he deliberately cracked his thick wrists, the joints making a terrifying "crackling" sound, as he approached step by step. Each step kicked up a large cloud of sticky mud, creating a powerful sense of pressure.
Bai Wei stood behind Zhang Kui, arms crossed, her face showing undisguised smugness.
She finally cornered that bitch Su An.
Looking at the mud splattered on Su An's body, just like Chen Xiaocao's, and at her face, which appeared ordinary due to the disguise, she felt a morbid pleasure welling up inside her.
What kind of bullshit marksman, what kind of bullshit genius, once you're in this quagmire, aren't you just a mud monkey at everyone's mercy? The humiliation I suffered during the obstacle course has now turned into flames of revenge.
"Su An, aren't you very capable? Aren't you very good at dodging? Now, go ahead and dodge!" Bai Wei's voice was sharp and sarcastic, filled with the pleasure of getting revenge.
