Most of the people in the billiard hall gathered around to watch. Such a scene was a rare sight, especially the fat guy, who was a celebrity here. He was a customer who catered to rich people. Normally, if you wanted to play a game with him, he would just wave you off and say that he didn't know how to play.
"Fatty's made a move?"
"Yeah, this guy is something else, he won two games in a row."
"That's amazing?"
"That's playing with ordinary people. Is Fatty an ordinary person? He's the King of Billiards."
The crowd chattered on, occasionally mentioning Fatty's glorious achievements, calling him the "uncrowned king" and the "billiards emperor," titles that sounded quite impressive.
Lu Feng lost to Fatty in rock-paper-scissors, and the other player broke the game first. Many people in the audience sighed. Fatty had the upper hand, and the game was over.
"There's nothing much to see here. Next up is the clearing of the stage," Li Shao sneered.
"This fat guy is not someone that ordinary people can challenge. He has never lost since this billiard hall opened."
"That's right, this kid is going to make a fool of himself. Young Master Li and Young Master Hong can easily ruin him, not to mention those young masters are watching him too."
The expressions on everyone's faces were very relaxed, as if everything was already settled. The fat man picked up the pool cue, took a look, and slammed it into the hole, winning a round of cheers from the crowd.
Then he shoved in five balls in one go. The sixth ball was in a really bad position, and it was basically impossible to get in. The fat man thought for a moment and hit the ball to the side, setting up a trap.
"Your turn!"
The white ball is located on the very edge, while Lu Feng's balls are completely surrounded, making it extremely difficult for him to score.
"Stop looking, just play a random shot. You're still planning to go in?"
"Yeah, if you can go in, I'll walk upside down."
"Let me tell you, this is your only chance. If you don't get in, Fatty will take it all next time."
The crowd's words were laced with teasing. Even the fat man standing to the side was all smiles, not worried about himself. In this tricky situation, even if he went up, it would take him two shots and depend on luck.
Lu Feng frowned slightly. It was indeed quite difficult, but not a big problem. It just required some skill. He had used to do a lot of fancy tricks, mainly to attract the attention of the female and female students watching from the side. One of his moves was a downward strike from the sky.
"Hurry up, stop dawdling, it's almost dinner time."
"Hurry up!"
Lu Feng walked to the pool table, plopped down on it, raised the cue stick high, and aimed it at the cue ball.
"Dude, what are you doing? Are you going to punch a hole in the table?"
"Hahaha, let me tell you, you'll have to pay for it if you drill a hole in it, you know?"
"I've never seen this kind of play before, I don't know what he's trying to do."
Liu Yingying frowned slightly and said, "If it doesn't work out, then forget it. We're all here for fun."
"Entertainment?" Young Master Hong snorted coldly, his eyes filled with displeasure. Even if he let Lu Feng go today, Young Master Li wouldn't. They could sense that Liu Yingying seemed quite interested in Lu Feng.
Lu Feng exerted a sudden force, and the white ball was instantly bounced up by the cue stick, drawing a beautiful arc in the air before hitting his ball directly and slowly heading towards the center hole.
"this.........."
Everyone present felt as if their eyes were playing tricks on them, their minds still somewhat blank, as they watched helplessly as the ball fell into the middle hole.
"Holy crap!!"
"Fly...fly...fly?"
Everyone watching felt like their heads were about to explode. Lu Feng's move was challenging the limits of everyone's understanding. Could someone really do something like that?
The fat man stood there dumbfounded, the pole in his hand falling to the ground with a 'clang'.
At that moment, he understood that the outcome was already decided; the two were simply not in the same league, and what followed was just a one-man show for him.
Just as expected!
"Bang bang bang!"
One billiard ball after another seemed to understand Lu Feng's words, heading towards the holes with all sorts of strange curves. When the last ball went into the hole, the entire venue fell into a deathly silence, so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
Lu Feng looked at the dumbfounded fat man and said, "I won."
"Can you teach me how to play ball?" the fat man asked, his voice trembling slightly. "I want to learn from you."
"It's just a hobby, it can't be turned into a profession!" Lu Feng said, glancing at the clock on the wall. It was almost six o'clock in the evening.
What makes someone a master?
At this moment, the fat man finally understood. Some things have become part of other people's souls and are part of their lives. They don't bother to use them to make money. They just play a round occasionally. Putting aside the skill gap, just their mindset is worlds apart.
Lu Feng sighed inwardly as he watched time fly by. He had almost neglected his studies because of billiards, but he still enjoyed playing with it. However, he really couldn't play with these people anymore; he had to buy groceries and go home to cook.
"I have something to do, I'll be going now." Lu Feng waved his hand and prepared to leave.
"Wait!" Young Master Li stood up and shouted; "Who said you could leave? Who gave you permission to leave? Go eat now, and after dinner, it's Monopoly. I'll pay for everything tonight."
"Wow!!"
The audience erupted in cheers and thanked Young Master Li.
"Thank you very much, Young Master Li. Your generosity has instantly elevated my demeanor."
"Yes, yes, yes, now I think Miss Liu and Young Master Li are an exceptionally good match."
Everyone was overjoyed and showered him with compliments, making Young Master Li grin from ear to ear.
Lu Feng said, "I really have something to do."
"What do you want? Is your business more important than Young Master Li's? You're so insensible." Han Bo walked over and said a few words, then called out, "Young Master Li invited you to dinner, so you have to give him face."
