Upon hearing this, Shen Qiang's lips curled into a bitter smile of helplessness. He also imdiately understood why Ji Liangchuan had ntioned there would be a ga at noon.
Because this was not an official ga at all, but rather a contest among basketball enthusiasts.
It was common and sowhat uninteresting.
Because during his high school years, people from other schools often ca to his school to play basketball. So it was neither novel nor official, and in Shen Qiang's eyes, there was nothing worth watching.
Moreover, about basketball.
Shen Qiang was not really keen on it.
When he had just started high school, Shen Qiang had played basketball for a while.
Later, because he was short, not very physically strong, had not undergone professional training, and because there were often fights on the basketball court with a bunch of little thugs squatting by the court smoking, Shen Qiang eventually stopped playing altogether. After entering university, he hardly ever looked at a basketball court and only occasionally, on a whim, would he shoot a couple of baskets when passing by.
But to say he joined others in a ga, he didn't even own a proper set of sneakers and a jersey.
However, after becoming a cultivator.
Shen Qiang's height, strength, and skills had greatly improved. Playing basketball against ordinary people was simply trampling them, and even professional players were no match for Shen Qiang, so his interest in basketball had dwindled even further, as there was no challenge whatsoever.
"Co and sit over here!" Ju Yang, the glamorous teacher, watched the players on the court with excited eyes and called Shen Qiang to sit with her by the side of the court.
Then, looking at Shen Qiang whose interest clearly seed lacking, she smiled and said, "Don't all you boys like basketball?"
Shen Qiang laughed, "You see, even on the TV shows and skits, they say, 'Gender: male, interest: female.' If all n were supposed to like basketball, then those artists should be saying, 'Gender: male, interest: ball.'
Ju Yang, the pretty teacher, laughed till her eyes squinted, "Alright then, since you don't like it, just treat it as watching the fun. Those wearing the red uniforms are from Engineering University. They've always been unsatisfied and often co here to challenge us, but most of the ti, Liangchuan wins."
Upon hearing this, Shen Qiang frowned.
In fact, as a cultivator, his agility, strength, speed, and jumping ability were beyond what normal people could compare.
Even without trying, now that Shen Qiang had entered the Golden Core Stage, getting to the second or third floor was just a re leap.
So he couldn't understand the point of a cultivator hanging out on the basketball court.
Just as he was thinking, he suddenly heard Zhang Jing's voice: "Shen Qiang!"
Shen Qiang turned his head and imdiately saw the surprised Zhang Jing and Miaoxia Xia, who looked slightly uneasy following her.
"Is it because you saw sitting with Ju Yang?"
Shen Qiang instinctively guessed, then laughed and said, "You two are here too? Co over and sit."
Miao Xiaoxia glanced hesitantly at Ju Yang, the glamorous teacher, appearing sowhat indecisive.
Zhang Jing, with a stern face, pulled Miao Xiaoxia over, not very politely pressing her into the chair on the right side of Shen Qiang, and then sitting down on the chair to the right of Miao Xiaoxia, she said with a slightly strange look, "Shen Qiang, the breakfast that Xiaoxia made for you was alright, I hope?"
Shen Qiang laughed, "It tasted nice." He then turned to the slightly nervous Miao Xiaoxia nearby and asked, "Have you had lunch? What brings you here too?"
"Had lunch." Miao Xiaoxia replied first, and then said, "It was the parkour team who told us. The people from Engineering University ca to dical University gym to play a ga, declaring they would crush dical University, so we ca to see. On one hand, we wanted to check out the level of the dical University basketball team, and on the other, after all, we are also students of dical University, and we wanted to cheer for our team."
Hearing this, Shen Qiang laughed, feeling sowhat speechless.
What's the deal?
Ji Liangchuan is a cultivator, the two from Engineering University are cultivators, and they want to compete by playing basketball.
They should be comparing their cultivation realms or magical treasures. If that's not enough, find a secluded place to duel, beat the opponent, and prove who's the boss. Wouldn't that be more direct and exhilarating? Playing basketball together seems like a joke.
And just when Shen Qiang laughed without saying anything, finding the situation sowhat amusing,
the beautiful teacher beside them leaned over, looking a bit excitedly at Miao Xiaoxia and Zhang Jing, asking, "Are you also here to cheer for Lianghuan?"
On hearing this, Miao Xiaoxia was stunned.
Seemingly guessing what she was thinking, the beautiful teacher smiled with her eyes bending, naturally extending her hand and saying, "Hello, I'm Ju Yang, a lecturer in the Biological Pharmacy Departnt. This sester, I'm responsible for Shen Qiang's master's thesis. At the sa ti, Assistant Shen will also help with my teaching duties."
Miao Xiaoxia imdiately beca nervous, "Hello, Teacher Ju, we've t before in the restaurant."
The beautiful teacher smiled, "Yes, Shen Qiang really likes you."
Upon hearing this, Miao Xiaoxia's face turned red all at once, and though she was visibly nervous, her eyes glead with excitent amidst her coyness.
So young!
A girl's thoughts are usually very sensitive.
Thus, when she saw Shen Qiang sitting with the beautiful teacher, her heart must have been sowhat uneasy.
Ju Yang clearly sensed this, and the statent "Shen Qiang really likes you" not only made Miao Xiaoxia blush but also relaxed her gaze significantly.
She nearly instantaneously shifted her view of Ju Yang from a romantic rival to a confiding elder sister.
Isn't that absurd?
Shen Qiang had never ntioned to Ju Yang that he liked Miao Xiaoxia. It was probably just sothing Ju Yang said casually.
But clearly, that statent single-handedly earned Ju Yang Miao Xiaoxia's friendship.
Hearing this, Zhang Jing, whose mood had also visibly improved, looked at Shen Qiang excitedly and said, "Shen Qiang, you must be amazing, being here, you're surely a key player of the basketball team, right? Looking at your height and build, I guess you must be playing as a small forward!"
Upon hearing this, the beautiful teacher, Ju Yang, was startled and looked at Shen Qiang in astonishnt, asking, "You're amazing?"
This made Shen Qiang a bit embarrassed. Admitting it would seem like he was boasting since he hadn't really put effort into this area and only knew so basic rules. Yet, not admitting it felt sowhat unfair to his conscience.
After all, if he really were on the court, Shen Qiang's strength wouldn't be sothing an ordinary person could hold back.
So Shen Qiang chose a middle path, "Not very amazing, just average."
Hearing this, a very earnest Miao Xiaoxia questioned, "How could that be possible? You're so strong; we've even asured your jumping ability. If you were to dunk with full force, you could reach the top edge of the backboard, sothing most professional players can't achieve."
The beautiful teacher, Ju Yang's eyes imdiately lit up, "Shen Qiang! You're actually that amazing! And here you say you're not interested, you really keep a low profile!"
