#29 - Strength contest? Zhao Zheng: I know this!

Chapter 29: Strength Competition? Zhao Zheng: I'm familiar with this!

"Peter, go! You're about to win!"

"Jason, you bastard, hold on! All my silver coins are on you."

"Jason, if you lose, your wife Maggie is mine..."

Beside the huge arena.

Hundreds of town residents were gathered around, watching the excitement.

Many gamblers were cheering for the contestants they had bet on, shouting loudly, some with excited expressions, but more with ferocious faces.

And on the arena.

Two burly men, their right hands clasped tightly together, were wrestling each other!

They were arm wrestling!

This was the local annual "Strongman" competition!

The ultimate winner was determined through the "arm wrestling" competition.

Once the ultimate winner, they would not only have the title of "Strongman" for a year, but also receive a sum of silver coins as a reward.

When Zhao Zheng and Song Haitang arrived, the two on the arena had already reached a fever pitch.

However, the fatty on the left still had a calm expression, even with a smug smile on his face.

And the lean and strong man on the right... judging from his struggling and flushed face, it was clear that he had reached his limit.

The difference between the two was obvious!

At this moment.

The fatty contestant on the left seemed to be tired of playing, and suddenly exerted his strength...

"Bang!"

He not only instantly knocked down his opponent, but also slammed the opponent's back of the hand heavily on the thick wooden table, making a dull sound.

"Ah!!"

The lean and strong man screamed and quickly covered his right hand.

His right hand was bleeding profusely, and it should have been fractured by the impact...

From this, it could be seen that the fatty had simply been playing with his opponent.

As for the lean and strong man's crushing defeat, the gamblers didn't care whether he had a fracture or not, they only cared about their bets.

Now that the bets were lost, many gamblers angrily cursed, sending regards to Jason's entire family.

Some emotionally agitated guys even threw rotten vegetables onto the stage to vent their dissatisfaction.

The person in charge of hosting the "Strongman" competition quickly went on stage.

"The winner is... Peter!!"

As the host raised Peter's hand, it immediately caused a burst of cheers from the audience.

"Want the prize money? You can go up and challenge Peter the fatty, as long as you can win."

"Forget it! My right hand is still needed to caress the skin of beauties, I don't want to ruin it here..."

...

Among the crowd, many residents were discussing.

Zhao Zheng's heart stirred as he listened to these discussions.

He grabbed Song Haitang and whispered, "Haitang, if we can win against the fatty on the arena, we can get a generous prize money. With money, we'll have a place to stay tonight!"

Currently, everyone is not clear about what the anomalies are.

Therefore, finding a place to stay is the primary task.

Having a house can at least resist the attacks of the anomalies, so as not to be ambushed and besieged instantly.

Hearing Zhao Zheng's words, a look of embarrassment appeared on Song Haitang's pretty face.

"Zhao Zheng, my training last month was mainly focused on mental aspects, and the increase was basically in mental attributes. As for strength attributes, it only increased a little... I can't win against that fatty in a strength competition."

These words.

Left Zhao Zheng stunned.

He immediately understood that the girl had misunderstood.

It was estimated that Song Haitang still thought that Zhao Zheng wanted her to take the stage and arm wrestle with the fatty...

It can't be blamed on Song Haitang for thinking this way.

After all, Zhao Zheng was a famous "self-abandoner" in the school last month, and he had not participated in training.

Tell me, who would expect a "waste" who abandoned himself?

"I don't want you to go up..."

Zhao Zheng was about to reveal his plan when a voice suddenly sounded beside him.

"Song Haitang, what a coincidence! We meet again."

Four young men came together.

These four young men were none other than Song Haitang's classmates from Class A.

Seeing the four people coming in front of her, Song Haitang's pretty face returned to its indifferent state.

"What's the matter?"

The leading young man was a little unhappy with Song Haitang's appearance, but considering his own interests, he still opened his mouth to invite her:

"Song Haitang, everyone is a classmate. Since we are destined to be transferred together, I think we should form an alliance."

"Isn't your team already full?" Song Haitang said.

"It's not a team..." The young man explained: "It's just a temporary alliance to jointly resist the upcoming anomalies."

Hearing this, Song Haitang wanted to object without even thinking about it.

She was not a fool. She and Zhao Zheng were only two people, while the other side had four people, the number was more than doubled, and the comprehensive strength of the two sides was not equal.

With such a temporary alliance, she would definitely suffer.

Maybe when encountering danger, she would be thrown out by the other party as a pawn.

Classmates?

In the face of life and death, this kind of relationship is not reliable at all.

The young man on the opposite side seemed to have anticipated that Song Haitang would object. Without waiting for Song Haitang to speak, he took the lead and said:

"Don't rush to object. If you agree to form an alliance with us, I can provide you with accommodation."

Song Haitang frowned slightly: "What kind of accommodation can you provide?"

"Tavern or inn."

"Do you have money?"

"Not yet..." The young man showed a confident smile: "But it will be soon."

Just at this time.

The host on the arena shouted loudly: "Our 'Strongman' competition is about to end in the last fifteen minutes. The current winner is still 'Big Head' Peter. May I ask, is there anyone who wants to challenge Peter? As long as you can successfully challenge, you are the champion!"

As soon as this was said.

Countless people under the stage were eager to try.

However, when they saw the fierce eyes of Peter the fatty on the stage, everyone was frightened and retreated, daring not to go on stage at all.

The young man standing in front of Song Haitang immediately said to an extremely strong teammate: "Chen Kai, it's your turn to play!"

The strong young man named Chen Kai didn't say anything and walked directly towards the arena.

"Song Haitang, as a classmate, you should remember Chen Kai, right?"

The leading young man, while looking at Chen Kai who was going on stage, said to Song Haitang: "Teacher Shen said that Chen Kai's talent can rank in the top five in the class!"

"His talent is the X-Men 'Colossus' bloodline. Although he can only turn his fists into metal at present, his strength is very amazing."

"In last month's training, Chen Kai's strength attribute increased by a full 29 points. Adding his original initial attribute, his strength attribute has now exceeded 40 points."

"Song Haitang, do you think Chen Kai can knock down that fatty and win the prize money?"

Speaking of the latter, this guy showed a smug smile.
