As everyone looked at Situ Qiong who was dressed in white from head to toe, they felt that he was ridiculously handsome .
“Wow . It’s Situ Qiong . ”
“We haven’t seen him dressed like this for so many years . ”
“In the past, whenever he had a match, the venue would be filled to the brim with people . I never thought that we would be able to watch him compete today . ”
“He hasn’t changed at all . He’s still as handsome as ever . ”
With everyone’s cheers, the atmosphere instantly heated up even more .
But then, in similarly dressed fencing attire, Gu Jingze walked out .
He held a mask in one hand and an épée in the other .
With one person on the left and one person on the right, he and Situ Qiong stood facing each other .
Everyone present went into a frenzy .
“Good Lord, it’s Gu Jingze . It’s Gu Jingze in the flesh . He’s so handsome . ”
“How can Gu Jingze be so handsome?”
“Good gracious . It’s the first time I’ve seen him dressed like this . He looks- looks exactly like a prince . ”
The knickers wrapped tightly around his legs looked like knightly attire . Gu Jingze’s figure was already tall and upright . The knickers made him look even more slender and clearly accentuated his high waist .
Gu Jingze’s bodily proportions were simply great . His legs were particularly long .
Yu Minmin covered her ears to block out the explosive noise . She said to Lin Che, “Good Lord . These young’uns are too good at shouting . ”
Lin Che could not be bothered with such exclamations . She merely looked at the two people down below in slight worry .
They were really going to have a match .
“Seriously… what exactly are they up to? They’re having a match just because they said they would . Really… they’re too immature . ”
“Why? Haven’t you heard this saying?”
“What saying?”
“If you have money, you can do whatever you want . It describes them perfectly . ”
Alright then .
Gu Jingze put on the electric foil jacket and looked at Situ Qiong across him .
Situ Qiong returned the gaze .
“You’ve already attracted so many people here . You’re really not afraid of losing, are you?” Situ Qiong said .
Gu Jingze did not know why there were so many people here either . Nevertheless, he did not really care .
At this moment, he could see nothing but Situ Qiong and the only thing on his mind was the competition between them .
“If you’re afraid, I can have a private match with you,” he said .
Situ Qiong smiled . “Everyone says that I’m egotistical . I didn’t expect you to be even more arrogant than me . ”
Gu Jingze said, “No, I’ve never been arrogant . I’ve always preferred to take action directly as opposed to merely using words . ”
“Fine . Without further ado, let’s begin . ”
“Let’s begin . ”
The two of them finally stepped onto the piste that was smack in the middle of the gymnasium .
The people above seemed like they were about to rush towards the center . The girls were not at all reserved and continued shouting and cheering .
The scene was truly more frenzied than that at any concert Lin Che had ever seen .
Lin Che did not know why she involuntarily felt anxious as she looked at the two people standing there .
Did Gu Jingze know how to fence?
She never knew that he could fence .
However, a prodigal genius like Gu Jingze was good at so many things, some of which she was indeed not aware of .
But when Lin Che looked at the two of them right now, she really did not know what to do . She kept wondering how good of a fencer Gu Jingze was and whether he was a brilliant one .
Even though she did not know who was the better fencer, she knew that Situ Qiong was a professional . Thus, he had to be a formidable fencer .
In that case, would Gu Jingze lose?
She did not want Gu Jingze to lose . She did not at all want him to lose . Her heart would ache if anything remotely bad happened to Gu Jingze .
However, if Situ Qiong lost, would he lose all hope again?
Lin Che did not want that to happen either .
Caught in a dilemma, she clasped her hands together as she sat there . She wondered irritably to herself why they had to insist on having a match . Furthermore, when these men got stubborn, they didn’t listen to a single word of advice . It made her feel even more frustrated .
The noise on the piste jolted Lin Che out of her nonsensical thoughts .
Whether she wanted it or not, the match had already begun .
Gu Jingze’s épée darted forwards .
Although she was no professional, Lin Che recalled what Situ Qiong had once said: The best defense was an attack .
Gu Jingze was probably putting these words into action right now .
Lin Che had never seen Gu Jingze fence before . However, Lin Che could tell from his very first move that his movements were precise and his figure ramrod straight . He was definitely comparable to a professional . When Lin Che saw this, she immediately understood .
Gu Jingze knew how to fence .
There was no doubt that he was Gu Jingze . He was immensely good at everything .
His perfectionistic attitude molded him into such an attractive Gu Jingze .
Meanwhile, Situ Qiong did not lack in comparison at all .
Their movements were equally swift . Although laypersons could not tell who exactly was the better fencer, they would not forget this scene for the rest of their lives .
Naturally, everyone could easily watch a professional fencing match . However, it was certainly not easy to catch such an exciting match between Gu Jingze and Situ Qiong .
The spectators continued to cheer and shout as they looked at the two people on the piste . It was difficult to tell who would win because their scores were so close .
Instantly, Lin Che became even more troubled .
She looked at the score and felt that she would be very upset and very worried no matter who lost .
She was at a loss as to what to do .
However, the spectators had already split themselves into two sides of their own accord .
One side was shouting: Gu Jingze, you’re so handsome and all the best!
The other side was shouting: Young Master Qiong, you’re doing great! You must win!
Yu Minmin’s eyes were fixed on the match . She merely came to watch the fun and did not care who would win and who would lose . Right now, as she was watching the match, she could not help but say, “I didn’t know that Gu Jingze was so good at fencing . ”
She raised her head to look at Lin Che . “But he’s too vicious . Look at him being so aggressive all the time . I think he’s definitely treating the sword in his hand as a chopper . He’s wishing that he could hack Situ Qiong to death one hit at a time . ”
Lin Che glared fiercely at Yu Minmin .
Just then, on the piste, Gu Jingze launched another attack . Situ Qiong turned his body and avoided the hit . Then, he turned his arm and made a sudden thrust . Gu Jingze dodged swiftly and easily blocked his épée .
Gu Jingze made another speedy attack . Situ Qiong retreated and was nearly forced all the way to the back . Just when everyone thought that he was about to lose, he suddenly dodged and quickly attacked again . With this, he immediately turned the tables .
The people who had been shouting were so nervous that they did not even dare to let out a breath .
It was because the score was about to hit 45 points . The match would end when someone obtained 45 points .
The last few attacks were truly crucial .
Gu Jingze extended his épée yet again .
Situ Qiong dodged it at lightning speed .
The crowd drew in a breath .
People who knew the sport were discussing the match .
“This is certainly comparable to a professional match . I didn’t expect Gu Jingze to be so brilliant . ”
They had initially come here with the intention to watch the excitement . However, they did not expect the match to be so exciting .
“These wealthy men probably learn everything . After all, they have the money to learn whatever they want to learn . ”
“What do you know? It’s certainly not easy to learn it so well as he did . Gu Jingze either trained really hard or has a natural flair for it . ”
At this moment, the score turned even again .
It was time for the last match .
The person who got the last point would be the winner .
