If Jiang Xiu had merely stated that Xiaohai would lose, it would not be strange as there was a 50% chance of either losing or winning, but he had accurately predicted Xiaohai\'s defeat in 10 punches. It was precisely 10 punches, not one more or one less, so this was a little shocking.
"Jiang Xiu, you just guessed it." Ye Bing sneered.
Jiang Xiu said with a cold look, "If this Deity receives you, you can win."
"You…" Ye Bing purred her nose in anger. She endured turning her head back. You speak as if I\'m dying to chat. Who wants to speak to a puppy like you?! "What are you proud of? You were just lucky."
After Xiaohai lost, the second match began.
This time, the Martial Arts Division\'s Gu Xuan made an appearance, and his opponent was of the middle-weight class, a square-faced student.
"All the best! You can do it!"
"All the best, Gu Xuan!"
Ye Bing spared no effort to cheer for the student fighting in the arena.
"Down with First High!"
"Show them the might of our Second High."
An inharmonious voice came through, neither gently nor indifferently, floating into Big Beauty Ye\'s ears, "Gu Xuan will lose after 22 punches!"
Ye Bing had pacified her rage with great difficulty, and this guy had ignited it again.
"You\'re infuriating this Lady."
Heavens. Who has let this damn beast roam free?
The match began!
Ye Bing and Liu Xiaoyun and all the concerned female students nervously watched the match\'s situation. Both of them dashed against each other, using feints to exchange punches and kicks.
"1st punch, 2nd punch, 3rd punch…"
From behind, Jiang Xiu counted the number indifferently.
"4th punch…"
Ye Bing was furious this time. What\'s your intention by counting them? You\'re so eager for Gu Xuan to lose? If the school lost the competition, do you think you\'ll gain face?
Turning to take a look, she found that Jiang Xiu wasn\'t even looking at the match and had his eyes closed, seeming calm and carefree.
Ye Bing also discovered that Jiang Xiu was counting slowly. At the same time the opponent landed a punch, Jiang Xiu counted another. His counting was accurate to perfection.
"7th punch, 8th…"
How is he doing this?
I heard that some martial arts experts could find the position by hearing the sounds, but Jiang Xiu was merely an ordinary 12th Grade student. How can he possess such high martial arts attainments?
"17, 18…"
One of the martial madmen from First High screamed, "Use all your strength!"
Their movements became quicker, and their styles rammed into each other. Sounds of bangs resounded in the arena as the fight became intense. Even the cheers grew louder and clearer.
"20, 21."
"Defeat!"
As Jiang Xiu said the last word, Gu Xuan screamed as if to match with it as he soared back and fell, colliding against the cushions faraway.
Shocked, Ye Bing and Liu Xiaoyun were thoroughly alarmed!
"Impossible!" These two girls were already speechless. This was too mysterious. Ye Bing especially felt so because she had looked back to see him as he was counting quietly, and his eyes were closed.
Could it be that he\'s a martial arts expert?
Ye Bing decided to ask him, completely forgetting her previous thoughts about talking with a puppy like him. "Hey, how did you know it? It\'s impossible to predict something so accurately."
"Didn\'t you already say it?" Jiang Xiu spoke coldly, "This Deity guessed."
"Right, leave it if you don\'t want to tell me. Who wants to know anyway?" Although Ye Bing said these words, she was truly curious. There was no way that there could be such a coincidence occurring in this world.
The following matches had already confirmed that he was in no way just guessing.
"Chen Yang will lose, 5 punches!"
"Luo Wenbin will lose, 11 punches!"
"Zhang Zhen will lose, 9 punches!"
"…"
Stunned and stupefied, Ye Bing and Liu Xiaoyun had no words to describe the shock they felt in their hearts. Jiang Xiu seemed just like a freakish prophet, his words hitting the mark and accurate in detail.
By now, the girl had no doubt that Jiang Xiu undoubtedly possessed some kind of superhuman judgement skills.
"It\'s Wang Yinan. Captain Wang Yinan is going out to fight."
"We have to win this fight!"
They couldn\'t afford to lose again. Before this, Second High had already lost 6 times. Wang Yinan was the strongest in Second High. If they lost this fight, then that would just be devastating.
Ye Bing asked quietly, "This match?"
Jiang Xiu said with the same tone as before, "Wang Yinan will lose, 27 punches!"
"Impossible!"
Ye Bing and Liu Xiaoyun cried out and immediately covered their mouth. At this point, they believed in Jiang Xiu\'s judgement, and since he said that Wang Yinan would lose, there was no doubt in it.
They couldn\'t lose again, else they would lose all face.
"Fight calmly. Don\'t be influenced by the previous matches." Teacher Gu Xi\'s beautiful face was already ashen. Since the matches all ended in defeats, she was the one who lost the most face. She had trained failures even though she had such a grand reputation.
"Brother Nan, do your best! We can\'t afford to lose this match too."
"You can do it!!"
The arena was inside Second High. If the news that they were defeated on their own home ground went out, it\'d be an utter embarrassment.
Gu Xi gave some final psychological advice, "There\'s no relation between their defeats and you. Don\'t get irritated and believe in your strength."
"Mhm!"
Wang Yinan nodded solemnly.
"I can\'t afford to lose this match!"
As the match began, to defend Second High\'s honour, all the students present stood up and shouted crazily.
"Brother Nan, you can do it. Take him down."
"All the best!"
Their yells had become hoarse from all the shouting.
At this moment, the wills of the entire Second High were united. Some girls were even crying as they waved their hands with all their strength as they cheered.
"Why aren\'t you cheering?!" A winter storm-like voice resounded. Jiang Xiu raised his head to look; it was Teacher Gu Xi. A cold layer of frost seemed to cover her face at this moment.
The gazes of those nearby were all drawn over.
Gu Xi had already taken note of Jiang Xiu for a long time. He was coolly resting with eyes closed and didn\'t even look at the matches. "Are you not a student of Second High? Do you even feel a sense of collective honour? You\'re really not suited to be a student of our school."
"If cheering were effective, they wouldn\'t have lost!" Jiang Xiu said.
"You…"
Teacher Gu Xi had almost fainted from the anger. So repulsive. Her beautiful eyes turned fierce. Reasons lead to a conviction. Beginning from this moment, Teacher Gu Xi had started hating Jiang Xiu intensely.
"Even so, it\'s better than you. The duration of the martial arts course is long so they will still be able to collect credits by participating in matches, and even if they didn\'t have any achievements, they\'d gather specialization credits required for the college entrance examination. But you?"
"There\'s nothing good about you!"
A commotion began to rise around them suddenly. Wang Yinan had been kicked by the opponent in the middle of the arena and couldn\'t even stand up after a while.
"Defeated?!"
The victor stood in the middle of the arena. He wore sportswear and had a crew cut. He possessed a height of 178 cms and was called Liu Yang. He proudly extended his fist, rolling in his fingers with his thumb outwards and put out an insulting movement, "Second High, take this!"
Silence. There was not even a single voice.
Those losers had hung their heads down like stray dogs.
Seven consecutive defeats, not a single victory.
What words were left to say?
"Hahaha…" Looking at the sorry appearance of people from Second High, the student from First High became even more proud as he laughed wantonly. "Second High, you couldn\'t even win once. Opening a Martial Arts Division? Just let it be."
"Pack up and prepare to leave."
Jiang Xiu said, "Alright. Now, I\'ll return to my dorm room to sleep." He was really quite tired and had only slept for around 3 hours, so he felt really unwell.
"You…" Teacher Gu Xi, who had already been injured after suffering such humiliation from First High, had taken another massive hit.
"You\'re too excessive. We\'ve lost so miserably, and you still have the nerve to be sarcastic."
"That\'s right!"
Ye Bing also indignantly gazed at Jiang Xiu, as if she couldn\'t exist in the same world as him.
Jiang Xiu left quite suddenly and even seemed to go towards the direction the people from First High were coming from. Seeing that Jiang Xiu was blocking their path, the rampant Liu Yang stretched his hand out to push him away.
"Get lost!"
Jiang Xiu\'s eyes became cold as he slapped with his palm in passing. BOOM! What kind of scene was Deity Xiu\'s attack portraying? That palm split the air with domineering might. It didn\'t even look as if it had hit him. Liu Yang flew back under everyone\'s astonished gazes.
"OMG!"
Deity Xiu kept walking, going past Liu Yang.
"Beat him up!"
When the people from First High saw that Liu Yang was sent back flying, they immediately went on the offensive, but the scene before their eyes changed in moments. Each of their faces had suffered a slap as all of them flew backwards.
When Situ Sheng saw that his fellow juniors were defeated instantly, he also attacked relentlessly, sending a flying kick towards Jiang Xiu. But Deity Xiu had already reached him first, his foot falling on Situ Sheng\'s body, making him fly back like an artillery shell, knocking against the wall behind, even causing the glass on the wall to break into pieces.
In this split second, Deity Xiu had revealed his fierce might for the first time. A group of more than 10 people were all defeated in the initial exchange, utterly defeated. None could match up to him and were all screaming in pain on the ground.
By the time the last person had dropped to the ground, Jiang Xiu had already left the Martial Arts Building.
"I wasn\'t dreaming, right? He defeated all the students from First High alone."
Ye Bing was so shocked that her jaw almost seemed to drop off.
Even Teacher Gu Xin was completed dazed looking at the scene.
