Chapter 17 Legally Protected Betting "It wasn't me who opened it." Wan Xiao waved his hands. The martial arts room had good soundproofing, but the door was open, and Li Yuan had sensitive ears, so he naturally heard the sounds. I couldn't help but turn my head to look. A young man with a well-proportioned body and a crew cut, wearing a black martial arts uniform, came to the door of the martial arts room 4011 in a few quick steps. The boy was half a head shorter than Wan Xiao, about the same height as Li Yuan, with a pretty handsome face. "Wan Xiao, how could you jump out of the window... Hey! How come this martial arts room is owned by someone else?" The young man was about to speak when he noticed the green sign on the door of the martial arts room. There are three signs at the door of these martial arts rooms, indicating different statuses: owner present, no one, and invaded. The green sign means it is opened normally by the owner. "There's someone in 4011... Who are you? How do you have the authority of 4011?" The young man then saw Li Yuan in the martial arts room and looked confused. The teenager is not stupid.
He originally thought that Wan Xiao opened the martial arts room window by jumping out of it. But from Wan Xiao's words and the green sign at the door, it was instantly determined that Li Yuan was the owner of the martial arts room. "Wan Xiao, why don't you introduce yourself?" Li Yuan said with a smile. He could see that the boy had no ill intentions, he just spoke bluntly and without any cunning. "Gu Qianghan from Class 1, Senior Grade 3." Wan Xiao introduced the boy with a smile: "His nickname is 'Not Strong'." Class 1 in each grade is an elite class. "Wan Xiao, I'll say it again, call me Gu Qiang. If you call me by my full name again next time, I'll really be angry." The young man looked displeased. Wan Xiao smiled and ignored him, then pointed at Li Yuan and said, "Gu Qiang, didn't you keep talking about Li Yuan after Teacher Xu's class a few days ago? Yes, he is Li Yuan." The boy, who originally looked unhappy, suddenly brightened up and stared at Li Yuan: "Are you the Li Yuan who has great marksmanship that Teacher Xu Bo mentioned?" "Um, good shooting skills?" Li Yuan said with a smile: "My shooting skills are not that good, but if Mr. Xu Bo is talking about Li Yuan from Class 3 (2), then it should be me." Li Yuan already knew who the boy was. When checking the final rankings of the second year of high school, he naturally paid attention to the top ten in the grade. Gu Qianghan was in his second year of high school, and he ranked third in his grade in martial arts in the final exam. However, his appearance was a little beyond Li Yuan's expectations, with a handsomeness that did not quite match his name. "Teacher Xu said you are good, so that must be true." Gu Qianghan's eyes lit up: "I checked, in the final exam last semester, your martial arts skills score was the highest in the whole grade." "Yeah." Li Yuan looked at the boy with interest. "I want to challenge you." Gu Qianghan stared at Li Yuan with an excited look on his face, eager to try. "Li Yuan, don't underestimate him." "This guy is very insidious. I was deceived by his appearance when I first arrived at the elite class." Wan Xiao on the side spoke quickly.
"What do you mean you were tricked by me? I didn't attack you by surprise. I came to fight you openly." Gu Qianghan looked disdainful, "You look like a bear, but you couldn't even take ten of my punches. You still have the nerve to say that." Wan Xiao was suffocated. Again speechless. When he first arrived at the elite class, he met Gu Qianghan who came to challenge him. He thought the other party was easy to bully because of his handsome face, but in the end... he lost miserably. "Ten punches?" Li Yuan nodded slightly, not surprised. Judging from the final results of the second year of high school, Gu Qianghan's raw score was higher than his own, so it was normal for him to defeat Wan Xiao. "How is it?" Gu Qianghan stared at Li Yuan: "Let's fight in full armor. I want to test your spear skills." Gu Qiang's eyes were shining with fighting spirit. Li Yuan smiled. From the conversation between the two just now, Li Yuan has guessed the reason why the other party wanted to challenge him. I'm afraid that Teacher Xu used his own shooting skills as an example in the elite class and said some unpleasant things. For example: "You still call it the elite class? I don't think any of them can catch up with Li Yuan from Class 3 (2) of Senior High School." "Li Yuan, who hasn't even awakened his martial arts spirituality, can knock all of you down with his spear skills." It is a common tactic used by many teachers to use students from other classes as examples to suppress students in the class they are teaching. Similarly, this invisibly attracted a lot of hatred for Li Yuan in the elite class. "Li Yuan, if you are a warrior, accept my challenge." Gu Qianghan looked at Li Yuan. Li Yuan looked at Wan Xiao strangely. It had been a long time since he heard such a childish word. Wan Xiao spread his hands, indicating that "he has always been so immature." "I don't accept it." Li Yuan shook his head. Gu Qianghan glared and said, "Li Yuan, do you have the spirit of a warrior?" "I'm not even a warrior, so naturally I don't have the spirit of a warrior." Li Yuan rolled his eyes at Gu Qianghan. "Okay, this is my martial arts room, I'm going to practice." In fact, Li Yuan was unwilling to fight not because he was afraid of the other side. But it is meaningless and risky. When practicing with Teacher Xu Bo, it was found that the teacher’s strength was much higher than that of the student. He was able to control the whole situation and ensure that no one would get hurt. But it is impossible for two students of similar strength to control themselves when fighting with cold weapons. Even if wearing full armor and using unsharpened cold weapons, it is easy to be seriously injured or even die. This kind of thing is not uncommon. Li Yuan is not willing to take risks for something that has no benefit.
"You..." Gu Qianghan was about to speak. "Gu Qianghan, who gave you the courage to find someone to fight privately?" A low shout suddenly came from outside the door. Gu Qianghan's face froze. He was not angry because the other party called his full name. Instead, a hint of fear flashed across his eyes. "Sister..." Gu Qianghan suddenly turned around and put his hand on Li Yuan's shoulder, his face full of smiles: "Li Yuan and I are joking? Don't you think so, Li Yuan?" Li Yuan was stunned for a moment, caught off guard. Wan Xiao shrugged, indicating that he was used to it. Gu Qianghan tried hard to shake Li Yuan's shoulders and winked at Li Yuan frantically. But Li Yuan stood where he was, as unshakable as a rock, his eyes fixed on the figure at the door. The girl, about seventeen or eighteen years old, was wearing a tight-fitting training suit of red. She had a delicate yet powerful face, bright eyes and white teeth, and her eyes and eyebrows revealed a sharp and resolute temperament. Her jet-black hair was piled high behind her head, making her look particularly capable. However, the most eye-catching thing was the fiery red sword hanging at her waist. "Hello, Li Yuan. I'm Lin Lanyue from Class 1, Senior 3." The girl also looked at Li Yuan and took the initiative to say, "I apologize to you on behalf of my brother. He is used to being crazy. I hope you don't mind it." "I'm fine." Li Yuan waved his hand and smiled. The girl nodded, her eyes became sharp and fell on Gu Qianghan again, making Gu Qianghan's scalp tingle. "Sister!" Gu Qianghan involuntarily took his hand off Li Yuan's shoulder. "If I find out that you are looking for someone to fight privately again, it will be useless even if I ask you to call me mom." The girl said coldly. Gu Qianghan touched his head awkwardly and didn't dare to speak. Since childhood, Gu Qianghan has had a natural fear of this cousin who is only half a year older than him. "It's all little things." "Don't blame him, we are all fine." Li Yuan said with a smile. Li Yuan recognized the person in front of him at a glance. Speak at school assemblies more than once. Since entering the school, I have been on the honor roll. Lin Lanyue, the top martial arts student in the senior year of high school and the martial arts genius who is recognized as having the greatest hope of being admitted to Star University. "I hope you don't blame me." The girl nodded, her eyes still fixed on Li Yuan: "Li Yuan, my brother was wrong to challenge you to a private fight, but Teacher Xu said that your martial arts skills are better than everyone in our class, and my brother is not the only one who is dissatisfied." “Actually, I’m not convinced either.” Li Yuan was stunned.
Wan Xiao was also stunned. Gu Qianghan's eyes lit up and he looked excited. He knew his cousin's character too well. He seems kind on the surface, but he is actually tough at heart. "I also want to ask you how powerful the person with the gun skills that Teacher Xu mentioned is, but not in actual combat." The girl stared at Li Yuan: "How is the competition on the Starry Sky Fighting Network?" Starry Sky Fighting Network is a virtual battle, no one will get hurt. "What's in it for me?" Li Yuan shrugged and smiled, "I never do anything that has no benefit." "Benefits?" Lin Lanyue frowned. "How about this, let's make a bet." Li Yuan said with a smile: "If you win, I will publicly acknowledge that you are the best in martial arts in the whole grade." "If I win, you have to give me two thousand Blue Star Coins, how about that?" Li Yuan smiled. "What's your bet?" Gu Qianghan glared at him, "It's a sure win, you're just dreaming." "As you wish." Li Yuan smiled and said, "If you don't agree, please leave and don't delay my practice." "Okay, I promise you." Lin Lanyue looked at Li Yuan. "Sister!" Gu Qianghan was stunned. "Shut up." Lin Lanyue frowned. "Then let's do it at 2pm on Sunday, how about that?" Li Yuan said with a smile, "Add a V first, and I'll send you the account name." "Row." Soon, the two became virtual network friends. "Gu Qiang, let's go." Lin Lanyue turned and left, and Gu Qianghan had no choice but to follow her. Only Li Yuan and Wan Xiao were left. "Li Yuan, you've lost a lot." Wan Xiao couldn't help but say, "You don't know, Lin Lanyue's family is very rich. If you had bet five thousand or even ten thousand Blue Star coins, I think she would have agreed." Li Yuan shook his head: "Stupid." "Xia country law stipulates that minors cannot bet more than 2,000 Blue Star coins on Star Fighting Online." "More than two thousand Blue Star coins are not protected by law." (End of this chapter)
