Chapter 358 God's Blessing
Chapter 358 God's Blessing
Jiang Bai was internally ranting, but on the surface he had to maintain an expression and nodded faintly:
"Hmm, not bad, keep it up."
Just then, the old professor spoke:
"Next, number 251, Jiang Bai!"
boom--!
That shout immediately brought the emotions of the entire audience to a breaking point.
The students in the stands stood up.
The old man from the security office polished his reading glasses.
Zhang Cheng pressed his finger firmly on the shutter button.
Everyone stared at the handsome, tall boy who walked into the throwing circle.
Jiang Bai stepped into the throwing circle with a blank expression.
In that instant, he felt at least hundreds of cell phones pointed at him, the sound of shutters clicking incessantly, even more intense than the distant starting gun.
"Look! My brother-in-law has joined the industry!"
"His posture is so steady, and those eyes... oh my god, they look so much like the goddess Bai Zhi, but with an added layer of murderous intent!"
"Quick, quick! Aim the camera at his arm, I want to see how he throws his 'little sister' eighteen meters!"
Jiang Bai bent down to pick up the shot put. He stood inside the circle and didn't roar like Gu Dapeng.
He simply lowered his head quietly, the stray hairs on his forehead obscuring his sparkling eyes.
This very second.
He asked the system a question in his mind:
"Tongzi, if I hit Zhang Cheng's camera bag with this ball, do you think it's a 'minor good' or 'major bad' outcome?"
[Ding! That's a 'criminal case.' It is recommended that the host maintain the demeanor of a 'brother of saints' and use their power to deliver these mortals from their wrath.]
Fine.
Well then, I'll perform the ritual to help them pass on to the afterlife!
Jiang Bai's lips curled slightly.
His right hand slowly pressed against his collarbone.
That aura of pure masculinity, belonging to the large size, was enough to dominate the entire playground.
Slide, turn—
With the added advantage of [Shot Put Specialization Mastery], that set of movements was so fluid it was almost like a ballet performance full of violent aesthetics!
"rise!"
Jiang Bai let out a low groan.
Boom! ...
The moment the ball leaves your hand, the black iron ball no longer follows a parabola.
It almost hugged the edge of air resistance, forming a nearly straight diagonal line, carrying a fierce determination to die, and instantly ripped through half of the playground!
Everyone's eyes followed the black dot as it moved.
Five meters... ten meters... fifteen meters...
It shows no sign of stopping!
Finally, under the watchful eyes of the entire stadium, the shot put cleared the craters left by everyone and slammed into the front!
The referee, an elderly professor, was somewhat stunned when he took a look.
When he ran over with the measuring tape, his steps were all jumbled.
When he saw the mark clearly, he exclaimed in surprise.
"Ten...eighteen meters and sixty-five centimeters?!"
The old professor's voice trembled violently:
"This score must have broken the national record for college students!"
"Whoosh—!!!"
The playground erupted in chaos in that instant!
"18.65 meters?! Is my brother-in-law Superman?!"
"Oh my god, I just saw sparks coming out of that ball! Did you guys see it?"
"We're doomed! The rumors are true! With that kind of strength, he really can throw Goddess Bai Zhi eighteen meters away!! Goddess, help me!!"
"......"
After throwing it away.
Jiang Bai calmly walked out of the throwing circle, dusted off his hands, and his nonchalant demeanor was the epitome of acting.
Gu Dapeng stumbled over and grabbed Jiang Bai's shoulder.
His eyes were filled with awe, as if saying, "From now on, you are my father."
"Third brother! No, Master Jiang! I was wrong. I thought 14 meters was pretty awesome, but compared to your 18 meters, my shot was like a baby's shot!"
As Gu Dapeng spoke, he nervously glanced at Jiang Bai's arm:
"Your skill level... is even better than last time you practiced! Brother-in-law, if you throw it a hundred more times, you might break the world record!"
Jiang Bai chuckled and said in a low voice:
"Keep it low-key. My sister just wished me well. If I don't throw it far, I won't be able to explain it when I get back."
"Yes, yes, yes! Bai Zhi's blessing is amazing!"
Gu Dapeng straightened his chest, his gloom vanished, and he became smug instead.
"Since you're the freak in first place, then with my height of over fourteen meters, second place is practically guaranteed!"
Jiang Bai glanced at him sideways: "Da Peng, this is only the preliminary round."
"What happened in the preliminary round?"
Gu Dapeng looked proud, puffed out his chest, and pointed to the shell crater in front of him.
He exuded the poise and pride of a "Grand Eunuch".
"Look, more than halfway through, and I'm still in second place."
"Don't worry, the first gate is yours, and as for the second gate, I'll risk my life to protect it for the Jiang family!"
Jiang Bai couldn't help but twitch his lips as he looked at Gu Dapeng's smug expression, as if he were second only to one person and above ten thousand others.
"Dapeng, have you forgotten? This is only the preliminary round. There's still the final round to come."
"I haven't forgotten, I'll take second place!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a dark-skinned young man walked into the throwing circle.
Before going on stage, this guy first gazed longingly at the broadcast booth at the top of the stands.
He then bowed deeply to the life-size cardboard cutout of Jiang Baizhi behind him, muttering something under his breath:
"Goddess Baizhi, give me strength!"
"I want to fly far away like a swallow that has broken away from its flock!"
Jiang Bai:? ? ?
Dude, you're throwing a shot put, not crossing the Pacific Ocean! Don't misuse song lyrics!
"ha--!"
With a roar, the dark-skinned young man transformed into a whirlwind, unleashing a frenzied, almost sacrificial-like attack with his right hand!
"Bang!"
The shot put landed, tracing an extremely hardcore arc.
The elderly professor, the referee, adjusted his glasses and announced the score: "Number 252, Liu Meng, 14.39 meters!"
Holy crap!!!
"Thank God! It really is thanks to the Goddess! I broke my personal record!"
Liu Meng frantically pounded his chest at the edge of the sandpit and blew a kiss towards the broadcasting room.
What?
14.39?
Wouldn't that exceed his 14.18?
Gu Dapeng's straight spine, which had been upright just moments before, deflated with a snap, like a salted fish whose bones had been removed.
Jiang Bai turned his head and looked at the dejected Gu Dapeng, and couldn't help but chuckle:
"Dapeng, it seems you're not the only one receiving my sister's blessing."
"This brother Yanzi just kicked down your second door!"
