536: You can't control it, let dad come, the old man comes on stage
Hong Wu clearly conveyed his meaning.
He knew he couldn't win the first match, but he still had to fight to push himself to his limit.
By the second match, it would be time to regain face!
Listening to this, Hong Fu was silent for a long time: "Son, you really can't handle this Black Gorilla, let Father do it."
After the Old Man's words came out, Hong Wu didn't immediately understand what he meant.
"Dad, what did you say?"
"I said, let me take that martial arts match," Hong Fu said seriously.
"Dad, stop joking, you're almost ninety years old, I'm still counting on helping you host your birthday banquet in half a year." Hong Wu didn't know what to say.
He understood that his Father was worried about his safety.
Facing such a terrifying opponent, even young adults could be killed by a single punch, let alone an Old Man.
If it were a normal warm-up match like this, he could still let the Old Master stretch his body and Gu.
After all, Hong Wu knew that even though the Old Master was nearing ninety, his body was still quite robust.
"I'm not joking, listen to me, let your Dad take this match!"
Hong Fu's voice carried a hint of authority: "You young punk, representing the Hong Family, don't you know who founded the Hong Family?!"
"Dad! This isn't child's play." The son also didn't know what to say.
He accepted this match because he had a spiritual energy seed within him.
It was with this guarantee that he accepted this match.
And what about the Old Master?
Unless he truly went for Immortal Cultivation, otherwise fighting that Black Gorilla was completely seeking death!
"You kid, your wings have hardened, huh?" Hong Fu was also so angry his beard bristled.
Who's joking with you, that's academic points!
If you stop him, you're preventing him from earning academic points, and that's a huge grudge!
Understanding he couldn't persuade his son, Hong Fu directly put the hoe in his hand aside, hung up the phone, and walked towards the Principal's office.
He needed to ask for leave.
Ask for leave to fight a match.
If you, Hong Wu, are representing the Hong Family, then go ahead and represent the Hong Family. He, Hong Fu, will represent himself and just fight the Black Gorilla before you, wouldn't that work?
Coincidentally, because the Hong Family's reputation was very high, matches against the Black Gorilla were usually arranged for last.
Before that were some challengers who were essentially minor figures.
Hong Fu's plan was to mix in with these minor challengers.
I've lived for almost ninety years, can you control me?!
Asking for leave, naturally, went smoothly.
Yang Shou directly approved a week of leave for the other party.
After all, the other party was inheriting the will for his million-dollar prize money.
If they got this wave of prize money, the entire class fund could last for a long time.
Watching Hong Fu leave, Yang Shou turned to look at the System.
There were still over twenty days until the end of military training, and after over twenty days, the System would have another wave of rewards.
Looking at that humanoid teacher template, he was quite looking forward to it.
...
The following days gradually became ordinary.
This was even more so at Yang Family Village Cultivation University.
One by one, the Students were sweating under the scorching sun, burning the medicinal power of the Body Tempering Pill.
Just six days passed, and the bodies of the fifty-six Students, which were originally thin and frail, now showed more or less muscle and vigorous vitality!
And among them, Tang Weida's physical changes were the most obvious.
"Bang bang bang ~"
Under heavy footsteps, Tang Weida, with muscles coiled all over his body, carried two large buckets of spring water and ran towards the cultivated fertile fields on the mountaintop!
With every step he took, a footprint of moderate depth was left on the ground.
Tang Weida was barefoot.
As his strength grew greater and his physique stronger, the shoes on his feet had been worn out several pairs in the past few days.
Simply put, Tang Weida stopped wearing shoes.
It was better to accumulate academic points and exchange them with the Principal for a good pair of shoes worn by Immortal Cultivators.
While the Cultivation University was as busy as ever, in a City on the other side.
A huge cage arena had been completely constructed by the staff!
Around the cage arena was a large area of arranged seating for the audience.
Tonight, it was the Black Gorilla's third match.
Due to the surge in prize money, there were a total of 23 people who came to challenge the Black Gorilla!
Most of them were clearly holding onto a lucky mindset.
While waiting, time passed and it became night.
On the newly completed arena, the moment it opened, all the seats were occupied by the densely packed crowd pouring in!
In the match backstage, the Black Gorilla looked at the list of contestants challenging him and couldn't help but shake his head and laugh: "This is really overestimating themselves, people who are 57 years old and weigh 65 kilograms dare to challenge."
As he flipped through the list, the Black Gorilla suddenly paused.
He pulled out a sheet from the list of challengers.
"Hong Fu, 89 years old?" Seeing this challenger, the Black Gorilla opened his mouth and couldn't help but burst into laughter: "Hahaha... What is this about? This is an arena match, I'm not playing games with Old Men."
Saying this, the Black Gorilla directly threw the list aside and looked at the Assistant: "How could you agree to such a challenger? Is there any benefit to me winning against him?"
The Assistant picked up the list from the ground and shook off the dust: "This challenger is the founder of the Hong Family. In terms of identity and status, he is higher than today's main challenger, Hong Wu. He is equivalent to a grandmaster-level figure in Xia Country's martial arts world."
"Generally, these Old Men never get involved in matches like ours. If they lose, their reputation in their later years would be ruined."
"Although I don't understand why the other party is doing this, this is our chance, a chance to become completely popular!"
Saying this, the Assistant put the list back into the Black Gorilla's hand.
Looking at the Old man on it, the Black Gorilla picked up the wine next to him and drank it in one gulp: "So, this is today's big fish, and an easy one to handle?"
"I'm starting to get interested, let's arrange for him to be the first one to enter the arena."
Slowly exerting force with his palm, cracks appeared on the wine glass in the Black Gorilla's hand.
...
In the arena.
The noise of the crowd came in waves, one after another.
And in the front row of the arena, there were dozens of seats where the people in them were very silent.
"It's okay, for this match, just fight with your last ounce of strength."
Below the stage, Xiao Yuanliang patted Hong Wu on the shoulder.
It turned out.
In this quiet section of seats, the people from the Wei Shi Alliance were surprisingly seated.
None of them had stepped into the stage of activating their talent yet, and they came at this time to observe Hong Wu's method, hoping to find some enlightenment from it.
"I understand, actually you don't need to comfort me, my mindset is very good."
Hong Wu smiled with a relaxed expression.
"Let's welcome, from the Great Ying Empire, the royal boxer who defeated countless masters in Hua Du Mountain City, the Black Gorilla!"
In the arena, after the Referee's voice appeared, it immediately ignited the atmosphere.
Waves of cheers, like a tangible tide, swept and rolled around the arena!
"It's good that your mindset can be relaxed." Amidst the cheers of the crowd, Xiao Yuanliang nodded in approval.
"Now, let's welcome the Black Gorilla's opponent, the founder of Hong City's Hong Family, a grandmaster of Xia Country's martial arts world, Hong Fu!"
The voice that appeared below the Referee made the arena slightly quiet.
"Hong Fu? That Hong Fu who founded the Hong Family?!"
As these words fell, on the other side of the arena, a White-Haired Old Man wearing a white martial arts gown slowly walked out.
And when he saw this Old Man appear, Hong Wu, who originally had a relaxed smile on his face, instantly widened his eyes!
On his face, there wasn't even a trace of color!
Xiao Yuanliang, who was next to him, saw this scene and sighed inwardly.
"He said he wasn't nervous, but the Black Gorilla just entered the arena and he was scared like this. As expected, there's still pressure."
"In the future, I need to cultivate this member's mindset more."
