180 Handsome (2/2)

Just as he wondered, Dongmei explained and tugged on his sleeve, showing her card to him. \”Look! The Challenges Activity updated.\”

——————————

\”No wonder…\” Wuxing muttered, finding it reasonable. \”If someone loses, they are almost always badly hurt. Who would risk getting injured for one thousand points?\”

\”This is our chance. If you can win, we will quickly gain the lead,\” Dongmei pointed out happily. \”I believe you can do it.\”

He was flattered she believed in him but he wasn't confident he could win this time while only using his raw skills. If it was related to guns, he wouldn't even think twice before competing. He spent more time shooting than learning martial arts.

The only method he could use to win would be his ability but he hesitated, seeing how big the crowd was.

He didn't comment on that and decided for them, pulling her towards another arena, \”Let's check the other four first and leave this guy for last. Maybe the rest is easier to beat.\”

\”Sure,\” Dongmei nodded and followed him.

They walked around the crowd without pushing and saw the sword mark, signalling another challenge spot. There were less people gathered around it which allowed them to see the instructor right away.

Who knew it would be Katherine?

\”You are slow!\”

She shouted as she struck the participant in the chest with her wooden katana, pushing him off the ring made of grass. He stumbled and fell, massaging his bottom afterwards.

\”Three strikes. You are out,\” Katherine called out as she aimed her katana at the challenger. \”Who is next?\”

She scanned the crowd in the search for the next opponent and everyone seemed to look away as if scared. They were the only ones who didn't turn away and Katherine's gaze finally landed on them.

She smiled and aimed her sword at him, deciding on his stead, \”You. The handsome guy. You will be my next challenger.\”

Everyone seemed to sigh in relief that they weren't chosen and looked at Wuxing where Katherine was pointing.

\”Me?\” Xuefeng pointed at himself, pretending to be shocked.

\”Yes, you. Come here,\” Katherine nodded with a smile and commented while gazing at the rest, \”Do you see any other handsome guys around here? I don't.\”

Oof…

Katherine roasted everyone without mercy, making Wuxing suck in a deep breath. Even he felt bad for them.

\”Well, I was about to register anyway so it's okay,\” Wuxing replied and pulled Dongmei by the hand towards the arena. He didn't want to let her stay on her own with a bunch of killers surrounding her.

She watched him curiously as he joined the challenge via his card and wear the special electric gear passed by the ring assistant. He entered with a wooden katana in hand and faced her, swinging it a few times to check its weight.

\”So how do we do this?\”
