Chapter 190 Betting
The whole venue was full of discussions, and all the students were discussing Chen Tianming's background.
Especially the nine champions on the stage, except for Li Yuqing, the others were full of disbelief.
They suspected that the school had made a mistake. They were the champions of each province this year, but the person who was included in the promotion quota for the entire freshman was an unknown person.
Only Li Yuqing stood on the stage, lowering her head, as if she was thinking about something.
Not only were they surprised, but even the audience was also in an uproar.
"Who is Chen Tianming? How come I have never heard of this name?"
"Nonsense, didn't you hear what Director Xia said! A freshman, just enrolled, isn't it normal that you haven't heard of him?"
Xue Shan, who was standing aside, looked at the others with a face full of shock, only to see the man next to him, wearing glasses, with a gentle face, drinking a bottle of drink in one gulp, as if everything that had just happened had nothing to do with him.
Xue Shan covered her mouth and lowered her voice: "Brother Tui, have you done anything earth-shattering during this period?"
Not only Xue Shan, but also Ye Fan and Gao Wei.
"Fuck, Brother Tui is awesome, he is the only one selected in the whole freshman?"
"What does this mean, even this year's national champion is not as good as him."
"Could it be a homonym?" When Carol heard the name, he was shocked. He looked around nervously, but unfortunately there were too many students here, and he did not find the figure that made him afraid.
"It must be a homonym. I am a member of the royal family of the British Empire. I have received the best education and enjoyed the best resources since I was a child. How could I lose to a freshman?" Carol comforted himself in his heart.
"Okay." Xia Jian interrupted the students' discussion and was about to proceed to the next link.
Suddenly, a figure stood up and said loudly: "Director Xia, I have a question."
Xia Jian nodded and said: "You ask."
"Excuse me, after these twenty people accept our challenge, if we win, should we continue to accept the challenge?"
"No." Xia Jian answered quickly, "Due to time constraints, if any of you can defeat these twenty contestants, you can directly advance, and then they will enter the lighthouse to participate in the audition."
After hearing Xia Jian's answer, all the students in the venue suddenly realized something, and some of them stood up immediately, but the figure spoke faster.
"In that case, I will challenge Chen Tianming here now."
"Fuck, who are you comparing? He's really smart."
"I know him. His name is Xiao Kun. He's from Qianlong College. His profession is Thunder Mage. He's very strong."
"I didn't expect that he would get there first."
"Why didn't I think of that just now? Damn, I was actually robbed of the limelight by that guy Xiao Kun."
Xiao Kun stood there with a crooked smile, praising his own wit in his heart. When he first heard the name, he was also shocked. Combined with the words of the freshman, a figure that he hated instantly appeared in his mind.
"Tsk, a freshman, how strong can he be?"
"Today, I, Xiao, will teach you a lesson. I want this spot."
Xia Jian seemed a little confused. He didn't expect that there would be someone who dared to challenge him. After all, the other students were either sophomores or juniors, and they were all famous. Everyone in the college knew how terrifying these people were.
But who would have thought that the last person was actually a freshman, which led to someone jumping out immediately.
As soon as he spoke, Xia Jian's face looked a little ugly. After all, today was the opening ceremony, and he didn't want to turn it into a competition for students to compete.
Xia Jian cast an inquiring look at the back.
It was a gray-haired old man, wearing a black Zhongshan suit, with his eyes slightly narrowed, and leaning on a cane with both hands, as if he was about to fall asleep.
However, he was obviously lowering his head, but when Xia Jian cast an inquiring look at him, he seemed to have a sense of his heart.
He raised his head slightly and looked at Chen Zhuo beside him, and Chen Zhuo immediately understood.
He stood up, walked to Xia Jian's side, took the microphone from him, and looked at Xiao Kun and said, "What is the name of this classmate?"
Xiao Kun stood up straight, saluted, and said proudly: "Qianlong College, junior student, Thunder Mage-Xiao Kun."
Chen Zhuo nodded, "Well, not bad."
Then he moved his eyes accurately to Chen Tianming.
As their eyes turned, most of the students on the field followed Dean Chen's gaze.
"Wow! That woman is so beautiful."
"Chen Tianming is a woman?"
"Bah! Idiot, this name sounds like a man's name. Isn't it normal for a man who can be included in the promotion quota to have a peerless beauty by his side?"
"Tsk, how strong can a freshman be? I just didn't react."
"I just hope that this guy named Chen Tianming can beat Xiao Kun and then lose to me."
"Chen Tianming, step out."
Chen Tianming was stunned. He didn't understand what the dean was going to do. After thinking about it, he finally stood up straight, saluted, and then slowly walked to the stage under the gaze of everyone.
But when he passed the third row, his figure paused slightly.
His pause immediately scared Carol.
Fortunately, the other party just stopped and continued to walk to the stage.
"Why does this guy look like a pretty boy? He even wears glasses. So pretentious."
"That's right, wearing glasses and pretending to be polite..."
Of course, it is not all criticism, there are also people who hold different views.
"I think he has a very elegant temperament, a bookish air, which gives people a very comfortable feeling."
"After all, he is one of twenty people. I think he has something."
"I wish he had more stuff. I want his spot."
Xia Jian's explanation made everyone in the venue eager to give it a try.
Even the representatives from the Lighthouse Country and the Sun Never Set Country showed expressions of watching the show.
"It's really boring." Lomons said disdainfully, "No matter how strong a freshman is, he can't beat a sophomore. How can a one-year gap be so easy to make up for?"
Hearing Romons's words, Carroll's heart moved and he mocked: "If you ask me, you just look down on people. Maybe they have any special skills?"
"Specialty?" Romons asked with a look of dissatisfaction: "What speciality can make up for the gap caused by time?"
Seeing Romons coming up, Carroll immediately said: "I have nothing to do anyway. Since you are so optimistic about this sophomore, let's make a bet to see which sophomore you think is stronger. The freshman named Chen Tianming is still better."
"how?"
Hearing that Carol wanted to bet with him, Lomons' interest immediately rose, and he immediately agreed, "What bet?"
Seeing that Lomons took the bait, Carroll said deliberately: "Bet smaller! I was also on a whim. Maybe you are right. Let's bet on three bottles of source water. What do you think?"
"Hahaha" Romones mocked, "Carol, I see you are really getting better and better as you live. When did you start to become so stingy?"
"You have the nerve to bet with me for three bottles of source water?"
"Humph! What do you mean?" Carol asked with a look of dissatisfaction.
"Ten bottles." Lomons said, "At least ten bottles, otherwise it will be boring."
Carroll thought for a long time, looked very embarrassed, and said: "Since I proposed this bet, it would be outrageous if I didn't make the bet!"
"Okay, it's up to you, ten bottles of source water."
The two of them looked at each other and smiled, looking at each other with evil eyes, and secretly scolding each other in their hearts, "Shabi."
At this time, Chen Tianming walked onto the stage, and Xiao Kun also walked up immediately. When Chen Zhuo saw that the two were ready and was about to start directly, Chen Tianming suddenly raised his hand to indicate that he had something to say.
"Dean, I have a question."
"you say."
"If I defeat Xiao Kun, if someone challenges me next, do I have to answer the challenge?"
"good."
"So that's it!" At this point, he frowned slightly, then turned to look at the venue and said word by word: "In that case, everyone who wants to challenge me, come together!"
Lomons in the audience was shocked and suddenly felt something was wrong. This was not something a freshman could say!
Is it possible that the other party is pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger?
