Chapter 524
Enjoying the cheers reserved just for him, Lou Cheng followed the lighted path, went on the stage at an appropriate pace and stood opposite of the "Prematurely-aged" Mu Huo .
When the referee was about to raise his hand and announced the start of the fifth round, he suddenly smiled, looked at his opponent and said,
"Congratulations . You have hopes to reach Dan stage soon . "
Mu Huo was shocked for several seconds and asked innocently,
"You can tell?"
He had roughly gotten the concept of "withdrawing" after fighting over ten ring matches . Perhaps it was because his "Misfortune" had been too attention grabbing and attracted the majority of the attention . No one actually discovered this point!
"My foresight has always been pretty good," answered Lou Cheng composedly .
Seeing that he didn't mind giving Mu Yu more recovery time, the referee who was weaker than Lou Cheng didn't care about it and wasn't in a hurry to start the battle .
When an inhuman stage expert fought with Dan stage martial artists at seven or eight pins, he should have enough control to not cause harm or damage to them .
When Mu Yu heard him, he answered emotionally and with relief,
"This is all thanks to you . "
"Why did you say so?" asked Lou Cheng curiously .
The "comedy" from last year had an instant awakening effect on him?
Mu Yu forced a smile and answered calmly,
"Over the last few years, the "Misfortune" ability was too attention grabbing . Not only had it blinded my enemies, but it also blinded me . Although I had been trying to use it only sparingly to prevent the side effects on my surrounding friends, I had always seen it as my greatest trump card in my mind . It is the very core of me and I have strong confidence in it . As a result, most of my energy had been placed on trying to reduce its side effects on the surroundings . "
"It was when I met you and my 'Misfortune' was countered that I understood what was being helpless . It finally woke me up and I have strengthened the training of my body since . Luckily, it isn't too late and I finally achieved something . However, whether I can achieve Dan Stage is still too early to say . Hehe . That's funny . My supernatural ability improved because of this and this was totally beyond my expectation…"
Mu Yu took in a deep breath and refocused his attention to the competition . He clasped his fist in a sign of respect and continued,
"Although I have no chance of winning, I would still like to seek your guidance . "
"Please!" Lou Cheng lowered his stance, extend his left hand forward and got into his starting posture . In his heart, he felt a little emotional .
In just a year, everyone was different now .
For the following match, Mu Yu didn't stupidly use "Misfortune" . Although his supernatural ability had benefited from the improvement in his body control and strength, the improvements of his opponent were far more exaggerated .

The difference between a Heavenly Son of the Era and a martial artist that was just enlightened was wider than several canals!
In the end, he benefited from Lou Cheng's cooperation and utilized all he had other than his supernatural ability . He was able to fully demonstrate what he had learnt as he felt as though he had matured and grown stronger under the fist of his opponent .
After a brilliant period, his performance started to drop . He stopped on his own behalf . Looking at Lou Cheng who wasn't affected at all by himself, he bowed with the utmost respect and said,
"Thank you for your guidance . "
"Thank you too . " Lou Cheng answered with a smile .
With regards to this, the crowd at the stadium was rather disappointed . They had long taken out their phones with the intention of recording a "comedy" . It's a shame that Mu Yu knew it himself and didn't grant them their wishes .
Lou Cheng left the ring with the claps of the crowd . On the way, he saw Shu Rui who stopped in front of him .
"Hi, it's been a long time since we met . " The female reporter who had only one dimple smiled faintly and waved at him .
"That's probably because you have changed your job . " Lou Cheng joked .

Shu Rui was more composed compared to two years ago . Her mouth arched upwards and said, "I have to thank you guys for it . "
Oh, today's is Thanksgiving day? Just now it was Mu Yu and now it is Shu Rui? Lou Cheng broke into a laugh and asked curiously,
"Why is it so?"
"Didn't I have an exclusive interview and program with you and the Martial Arts Club? With Lin Que and your name getting more well known, more and more people found these resources . As for me, my looks are fine and had some capabilities . After slowly accumulating some popularity, I was selected by the county satellite TV and was poached by them . In the future, I would probably have fewer and fewer chances of being a frontline reporter . If there's an invitation for some show, please do me a favour . " Shu Rui had not changed from boasting about her looks .
Capabilities? Is it the capabilities of creating cold jokes with big brother? Lou Cheng poked fun at her a little . He's in a good mood and answered,
"As long as I'm free . "
Shu Rui nodded her head satisfactorily and became a little gossipy . "I noticed that your girlfriend hasn't been around for the last two rounds?"
"Is this an official interview?" Lou Cheng glanced at the cameraman beside Shu Rui .
"Nope . I have not started filming . " Shu Rui looked at Lou Cheng with a face full of smiles while waiting for his answer .
"Ke has gone to America for her studies . " Lou Cheng answered it simply .
"America? Then she should be on winter vacation soon?" Shu Rui's eyes moved quickly and quickly made mental notes .
She had considered going for overseas studies and had gathered quite a bit of information . Therefore she knew about this matter .
"Yeah . Her break starts about one week before Christmas and will last four weeks . " Lou Cheng did not hide the ecstasy he was feeling .
However when Ke was back, she had to stay with her paternal grandparents for a few days and her maternal grandparents at Jiangnan for a few days after that, accompany her father and mother, and also keep in contact with her close friends . The time they could spend together alone wouldn't be much . He would be involved in the regional competition after all and she couldn't possibly keep staying in Songcheng . Yeah, that's fine . I can visit Xiushan on Monday and return to Songcheng on Friday . I might not be a competent coach but they were used to me not being around after all . Just like how Smith had gotten used to my appearance .
Just as his thoughts started to drift on this topic, Shu Rui suddenly heaved a sigh . She continued emotionally, "If it isn't because you are still around, I will also feel that the Songcheng University Martial Arts Club has become so foreign . As compared to this time last year, probably half of the people had left right? Coach Shi, Lin Que… Oh ya, how're Lin Que's injuries now? I couldn't find any information on it on the internet . "
"He had restorative exercises in August and recovered in November . He should have the standards of a strong sixth pin now . " Lou Cheng answered honestly . This was all the information he had gotten from Ke .

As an ex-teammate who had fought side by side and a relative in truth, he indeed had called big brother to show concern . However the whole process was very awkward . On his side, he was squeezing his brain to think of topics while on the other side, the answer was just "Mm", "Yes", "Right" and other simple terms . This caused Lou Cheng to become less confident in maintaining the conversation and could only hang up quickly .
With regard to this, Yan Zheke managed to soothe his damages in just a sentence,
"If my brother is willing to entertain you for a minute and listen to you talk without saying goodbye directly, he already sees you as a friend!"
After hearing what Lou Cheng had described, Shu Rui smiled, "That's great . Everyone is getting better and I'm happy about that . "
Reporter Shu, this doesn't sound like you . You were a little mainstream… However, this had nothing to do with me… Lou Cheng pointed to where his teammates were and said, "Let's start the official interview . They are all waiting . "
"Alright . " Shu Rui changed the topic to the new batch of students that joined the Martial Arts club . "The difference in strength is too distinct . Others could only look up to you and the other few inhumans . However it isn't that there isn't any uncertainty . For example in the regional top four round-robin match, you guys would definitely face Shanbei . Are you prepared to fight Peng Leyun before the Nationals?"
"Uh, it depends . " Lou Cheng didn't make it definite .
His improvements had been slow after achieving a breakthrough in Ice Mirror which had brought a great leap forward in his martial arts . When compared with his pace of reaching sixth pin and inhuman stage, his current pace was tortoise like . He almost couldn't get used to it . At that time, his pace was like a high-speed train .
Over the last two months, he only had minor improvements . Based on the data available, other than the insane living buddha and warrior sage, most of the inhuman faced similar problems . Therefore the earlier one reached the higher Dan, the more time they had to try to achieve physical invulnerability and the greater their chances for doing so .
Hmm . . . It felt like I had not consolidated enough . . .
. . .
While Shu Rui was having an exclusive interview with Lou Cheng, members of Shannan University had completed a brief after-match interview and had returned to the changing room .
Lin Xiao carefully stepped into the bathing cubicle and removed her clothes . Taking down all her protection items, she left only the necklace on her neck .
Turning on the tap, hot water was released . While waiting for the temperature to increase, she felt The Sky Shaking Roar's pendant that had "Lou Cheng" engraved on it with one hand while holding his other hand forward . She was also mumbling some words .
When the ceremony ended, the water temperature was just appropriate . She walked below where the water was scattering and feel her body relaxing .

After worrying for some time, Lin Xiao finished cleaning up without meeting any disaster . Just as she was about to put on her clothes and walk out, she suddenly heard someone slipping from the other side followed by Jin Dali's scream .
"What happened?" Lin Xiao raised her voice and asked .
"Nothing . I just did a split . . . " answered an annoyed Jin Dali .
"So pitiful…" Lin Xiao nodded her head bitterly . She covered her mouth and pretended she knew the pain . However after several seconds, she could no longer hold it and laughed out .
Believe in Lou Cheng, avoid all bad luck!
Whoever used it would know it!
… . . .
After which, Songcheng University had a smooth journey as they continued winning . Under the witness of Yan Zheke, they entered the top four round-robin match . Their very first opponent was the Shanbei University Martial Arts Club .
On the afternoon of Christmas, Lou Cheng, who was pretending to be a couple with Yan Zheke when they were in fact husband and wife, suddenly felt his phone vibrating . Picking it up and taking a look, it was Priest .
"Peng Leyun…" Lou Cheng whispered to Ke, who was beside him, before picking up the phone . "Hey, Priest! So free to look for me?"
Peng Leyun smiled and replied, "I just wanted to tell you that for the next match, I'll probably not be participating . Let's fight again in April . "
"To do consolidation?" asked Lou Cheng as he thought about it .
"Aren't you the same?" Peng Leyun answered carefreely .
After saying, both of them laughed at the same time . It was as though they had some form of chemistry between them .
Since the end of the four nation competition till now, Peng Leyun had not fought openly . As for Cheng, after the conclusion of two unknown practical battles in America, he had only participated in two guidance matches .
When he put down the phone and was about to tell Yan Zheke about what happened, he suddenly received another message . It was the contact person, Rapid March, from the military .
"We have some clues on the 'Wholeness' Formula . "
