Chapter 43 You Are Not the Tallest
Not the strongest
Teacher Zhang came to the martial arts school with an appreciative mood. Like other teachers, he wanted to come and witness the glorious moment of No. 15 Middle School.
However, after listening to what his principal said, he felt that he had no mood at all.
But no matter what his mood is.
This game was played very well.
No. 5 Middle School has done its best.
They used one warrior to fight off Chang Bin and Liu Xuan.
Although Chang Bin had defeated Lin Xingyu earlier, it was only a minor injury to Lin Xingyu. The coach of No. 27 Middle School was afraid of accidents, so he replaced Lin Xingyu. If the coach of No. 27 Middle School could do it again, he would definitely not do the same.
Well, the coach of No. 5 Middle School who watched the game between No. 15 Middle School and No. 27 Middle School did not do that.
This time, the warriors from No. 5 Middle School, regardless of gains and losses, even though they were hit by Chang Bin, they finally beat him down.
Liu Xuan below was more agile than Chang Bin and managed to maneuver on the stage for a while longer, but was eventually knocked down by the warrior.
Chang Bin and Liu Xuan also worked hard. Although they were penetrated by the same warrior, they still managed to defeat that warrior.
In the end, Yang Zheng was not allowed to face the three people.
There were only a few of them, and it didn't seem to make any difference to Yang Zheng.
There is a non-warrior and a warrior in No. 5 Middle School. Judging from the situation, they are more than enough to deal with Yang Zheng, but the fact is that Yang Zheng didn't have to spend too much effort on them.
The distance between warriors and non-warriors is still very large, but with Yang Zheng, he could knock them over with one hand and then grab their necks.
This is true for non-warriors and warriors alike.
The whole process took no more than ten minutes, eight of which were for breaks and the time it took for the contestants to go on stage.
When the commentator announced that No. 15 Middle School advanced as the first in the group, the entire No. 15 Middle School was stunned.
Have you ever thought about what is happening in front of you?
They thought about it, in fact they had been thinking about it all week, whether it was Class 1 or Class 7, whether it was Grade 1 or Grade 3, even whether it was teachers or ordinary staff.
"Maybe we can qualify first in the group this time."
"I think so."
"No matter what, No. 5 Middle School will never be as strong as No. 27 Middle School."
"I think so."
"There shouldn't be any accidents, right?"
"Nothing can happen!"
…
Similar conversations occurred in every corner of No. 15 Middle School. However, no matter how confident they were, they still felt insecure.
It's really... I've been weak for too long.
It’s true... Yang Zheng is a little too amazing.
Almost all the martial arts students were asked about Yang Zheng's early deeds, but Yang Zheng didn't do much except for his convulsions.
They are quite hardworking, but many people in the martial arts club work very hard.
His Kung Fu was not bad, but it seemed, as if... it was not as good as it is now.
But they themselves were a little bit unconvinced, let alone others, so they began to rack their brains to think of something. In the end, the students from Class 7 came up with the idea first: "She has long been determined to go to X University!"
"oh!"
"We didn't believe it then, but now it seems she can really go to X University!"
Everyone nodded.
Warriors have already distanced themselves from the lives of ordinary people, not to mention the fourth level. Now that Yang Zheng said he wanted to go to X University, the students in Class 7 not only stopped ridiculing him, but also felt proud of it.
Yang Zheng had already set his ambition, so he must have been prepared. As for why he didn't reveal it earlier... maybe he was waiting for this competition.
However, no matter how much they imagined it or encouraged themselves, they couldn't help feeling a little uneasy.
Until this point they actually won!
Bang!
The first person to clap was Yang Zheng who was standing on the stage. Then, as if a switch was turned on, the applause from No. 15 Middle School immediately became one. They clapped hard. Everyone's face was flushed, their palms were sore, and their arms were sore, but they kept clapping.
Later, someone recalled this scene - this was the most exciting moment in Lao Tzu's life, and he would never forget it until his death.
This time, no one from No. 15 Middle School was injured, and Coach Liu could no longer stop Principal Zhang, so it had to be a big celebration.
According to Principal Zhang, even if we didn't find a five-star hotel, we had to find a similar hotel. However, in the end, we still had the meal in the cafeteria of No. 15 Middle School.
The main reason was that Sun Zhen showed him the current school account.
Of course, as a formal public school with more than 2,000 students and dozens of faculty and staff, it is not impossible for it to be unable to pay even this little money.
But in Sun Zhen's words, we still have games to play!
Quarterfinals, semifinals, finals...
Principal Zhang realized that the group stage was just the beginning, not the end!
The children might need to use Jinyuan Paste or even Guyuan Paste for their lower body, so he can't eat them all here.
Since it was at school, everyone was there, so all the teachers and students of No. 15 Middle School had a big dinner. At the end of the meal, someone shouted "champion", and then everyone shouted
Everyone was shouting with their blood boiling, but one person's mouth barely moved.
Liu Kai.
He's not happy that he's qualified.
No, he was happy too.
He knew that his father was always concerned about the results of the martial arts club. When they were young, his father would often tell them about the results of the No. 15 Middle School martial arts club.
Two warriors have been trained; one is a level two warrior; and a certain warrior has been specially recruited by Zhongzhou University.
At that time, the martial arts club's performance was not particularly good, but there was still something worth mentioning.
But gradually, due to various reasons, the performance of No. 15 Middle School became more and more mediocre, and the martial arts department could no longer recruit good talents, and then, the results became less and less.
"You guys, come to No. 15 Middle School."
That day, his father said this to him and his sister.
"Okay." The brother and sister nodded together.
There was no hesitation, in fact they had already had some kind of awareness.
After coming here, they have been working very hard, and he has lived up to his father's expectations, becoming a warrior at the beginning of the year.
For a sixteen-year-old warrior, it is considered good to be placed in schools like No. 27 and No. 13 Middle School, but it is still not enough.
If it weren't for Yang Zheng, they might not even be able to qualify this time... and there's a high possibility that they wouldn't even win a single game, let alone everyone shouting "champion" here.
As he was thinking, he felt someone touch him. He turned around and saw Yang Zheng.
He was startled, and Yang Zheng touched his head.
"What are you doing!" His eyes widened immediately.
"Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
"No!"
"Your injuries are all healed."
Liu Kai's body froze, and he didn't know how to answer for a moment. Yang Zheng was asking about his injury.
He was struggling with his thoughts when Yang Zheng reached out and tapped his chest. He almost jumped up.
“Isn’t this still not completely okay?”
“…It’s almost done.”
"Don't be careless."
He didn't say anything. Yang Zheng sighed, "In a few years, you'll be soaking goji berries in a thermos."
Liu Kai felt that this was not a good thing to say, but he couldn't figure out why it was bad.
Just as he was thinking about whether to ask, Yang Zheng suddenly said, "You are not the strongest."
"……so"
“Not the highest either.”
"Of course I..." Liu Kai was about to say that he was certainly not the tallest, but he was suddenly stunned halfway through. Then, an indescribable feeling spread and echoed in his heart.
He is not the strongest, nor the tallest, so he does not need to hold up the sky.
He should be angry, but why, he suddenly felt as if his whole body was light.
So, he has always regarded this as pressure?
He lowered his eyes and spoke slowly: "What about you?"
Yang Zheng did not answer, he asked again: "Are you the tallest one?"
"Of course, neither am I."
Liu Kai was stunned again. Yang Zhengyi raised his eyebrows: "But so what?"
Liu Kai looked at her. Yang Zheng smiled, then suddenly stood up and waved his arms: "Champion——"
The whole audience was silent, and then the shouts that had just stopped rang out again: "Champion——"
No. 15 Middle School qualified, and not only the students were happy, but their parents were also happy, especially the parents of the martial arts students. But the happiest ones among them were probably Yang Zheng's parents.
The first thirty years are about the father respecting the son, and the last thirty years are about the son respecting the father.
Although it is said that the father gave the son face in the early days, if the children are too bad, it would not look good for the parents.
Yang Zheng's parents are ordinary people.
The shoe factory where Yang Liang works now is in a half-dead state, but since he is still a small leader after all, he just keeps working.
However, Zhang Jinhui was laid off early and opened a barber shop on the street. It was not a hair salon, but a traditional barber shop, and her business was mainly with regular customers.
Now that I'm familiar with this, I can't help but talk about parents.
"Oh, you have a son and a daughter, what a blessing! My son is in No. 14 Middle School, a good school. Where's my daughter in No. 15 Middle School? No. 15 Middle School seemed pretty good in the past... but now there's still this school."
Faced with such doubts, Zhang Jinhui could only smile politely and awkwardly.
When the incident happened at No. 15 Middle School some time ago, Zhang Jinhui did not open the door, but later it stabilized and she continued to do business. This time, people asked Yang Zheng what place he had chosen, and Zhang Jinhui could only continue to smile.
But now it's different.
While washing someone's hair, Zhang Jinhui would say, "This kid is stupid. She's really no good at studying. Luckily, she's okay at martial arts. Last time, she beat a third-level warrior from among the twenty-seven. Yes, third-level, I don't know what level she is. I don't understand these things. She said she wants to go to X University, but I don't think that's possible. Well, you see, this kid is growing up, and you can't control her anymore!"
It's very helpless and a headache.
The situation is similar on Yang Liang's side.
But there were also some really troublesome things. For example, the director of the leather shoe factory found Yang Liang and wanted Yang Zheng to make an advertisement for them.
"Dad..." Yang Zheng blinked once, then blinked again, "Your factory is mainly producing high heels now, right?"
"Yes." Now their factory only sells high heels.
"Are you sure I can walk in high heels?"
…
The author has something to say:
Well, I don't know if there will be a next chapter. I'll try my best. I originally said I would give out red envelopes after ten chapters, but I forgot when I reached the fortieth chapter. Embarrassingly, there is a red envelope for 2 points below this chapter. The deadline is tomorrow at noon, o(* ̄︶ ̄*)o
Thank you very much for your support. I will continue to work hard!
