Chapter 127: Qualified, Blossom Ranking Renewed! (1/2)
Time always went by faster when there was no need to attend classes. In the blink of an eye, three days of steadily accumulating points ended.
“This is our final match so pay attention. This time, our opponents aren't rookies anymore. Of course, we might not even need to fight at all.”
Bai Xiaofei reminded them before the match. Class 56 was against them this time and they were one of the classes with a Newcomer King. By now, apart from Lin Li, the other eight Newcomer Kings had already been revealed. Each of them had fought in the matches to some extent. However, they only revealed a tiny part of their strength.
This time, the Savage Class’s opponent was one of the eight classes with a Newcomer King. Tai Shan was the class monitor of this class and an Energy Stream defensive puppet master. Based on his recent performances, he was someone with frightening control over the earth. Similar to the Savage Class, class 56 had won all their previous matches. This was their final match as well.
Therefore, the chances of Tai Shan going easy on them was slim. Hence everyone was slightly stunned when they heard Bai Xiaofei mention that they might not have to fight. Before long, class 56 walked up as well. They were being led by Tai Shan, the Newcomer King with a sturdy build.
Now that both parties were present, they agreed to start the match around ten minutes earlier. After stepping into the ring, Bai Xiaofei and Tai Shan flashed a smile at each other.
“I am Tai Shan. I have admired you for a long time, brother. I never expected our first meeting to be like this.”
Tai Shan grinned, revealing a row of white teeth.
“Don’t say that. You are a Newcomer King. I should be the one admiring you.”
Bai Xiaofei laughed and flatteries started pouring out of his mouth as well.
“Brother, you have been fighting for an entire day, right? I heard from the judge that you guys have basically never left the ring.”
Tai Shan commented, the expression in his gaze shifted slightly.
“Still, we are not as ruthless as you, brother. I heard that nobody is even willing to get in your ring. Everyone pretty much gave up without a fight.”
What Bai Xiaofei meant was: You may have been investigating us, but we haven’t been idle either.
“Brother, why don’t we use a different method to determine the winner? Battling it out all the time will only hurt our friendship. This is our first meeting after all.”
The moment Tai Shan spoke, the members of both classes were stunned. Bai Xiaofei was the only exception. Rather than being shocked, he was overjoyed.
“Brother, I was about to suggest this as well. I truly dislike fighting. If possible, I would much prefer to settle things in a civilized manner as well.”
As Bai Xiaofei spoke, his classmates behind him all shot him a look of disdain.
You don’t like fighting? Every time we fight, your punches are the hardest!
“Haha, this is the case of heroes agreeing with each other, then! Brother, what do you propose?”
Tai Shan’s eyes lit up as he flashed a smile that was as bright as Bai Xiaofei’s.
“How about a game of rock–paper–scissors?”
After thinking about it for a while, Bai Xiaofei proposed something that was ridiculously risky. Tai Shan clapped his hands in joy and accepted the proposal.
What the hell? Is this really a decision made by the class monitors of two classes with Newcomer Kings?
“We might as well make it quick and decide the victor with a single round. Are you fine with this, brother?”
Bai Xiaofei clenched his fist and smiled.
If I’m going to gamble, I might as well raise the stakes!
“Of course I’m fine. This will only make things more exciting!”
Once again, Tai Shan agreed to Bai Xiaofei’s proposal. The students of both classes felt their brains short circuiting.
What sort of class monitor decides things this way?!
“Rock, paper, scissors!”
