Seeing Lin Chen so confident, Zhang Yue looked puzzled.
Handing in the paper after just thirty minutes, he was practically resigning himself to defeat, and winning first place was nothing short of a daydream.
"Why don't you believe ? Let's make a private bet; if you lose, give a kiss," Lin Chen said with a smile.
"And if you lose?" Zhang Yue raised her eyebrows slightly.
"At your rcy," Lin Chen said confidently.
"Alright, it's a deal," Zhang Yue nodded.
She still couldn't believe that Lin Chen could co first by only spending thirty minutes on each subject.
Lin Chen looked smug, as the first place was his for the taking this ti, so he was sure to win the bet.
He checked the system, and the task of rescuing the teacher was already completed.
Lin Chen clicked to receive the task reward, and a crisp sound ca from within the system.
"Ding Dong, congratulations to the host 'Lin Chen' for completing the task and receiving 3 popularity points."
Lin Chen now had accumulated 4 popularity points, which made him sowhat gloomy when he thought of the original fifty thousand points.
If he ranked first in the monthly exam, three of the four school beauties had already been conquered, with just one left.
Lin Chen checked the information - the last school beauty was nad Feng Yan, a renowned music prodigy in the school and also the manager of the Go club.
"These bastards are so annoying, they even claid Go as their national essence."
"It's also our school's guys' fault for being useless, losing one after another, no wonder those bastards are so arrogant."
"Yeah, it's totally embarrassing, these guys strut around normally, but always fail at the crucial mont."
"What's going on here?" Lin Chen stopped a male student and asked.
The male student sighed and said: "Our school and Tongli High School from the Stick Country are sister schools, and this ti we had a Go exchange competition, where all our players were defeated. It's utterly humiliating. You didn't see how arrogant those Stick Country guys were."
"Really?" Lin Chen raised an eyebrow.
Lin Chen had no good impression of Stick Country, which often claid others' cultural aspects as its own, even recently claiming the Dragon Boat Festival was theirs, which was shaless to the extre.
The Go club, that seed to be Feng Yan's territory. With a thought, Lin Chen headed to the school's Go club.
The competition was still ongoing, and although Lin Chen didn't understand much, he could tell at a glance that the player from DY High School was bound to lose.
"This ga of Go is a test of wit, you Huaxia people might have strong limbs, but not here," a Stick Country player, pointing at his head, said arrogantly.
The harsh words of the Stick Country player incited anger among the spectators, yet they were powerless to retort.
Since the players from DY High School had all lost.
Just then, the last DY High School player also lost.
The player who lost was Gao Qi, the president of DY High School's Go club, a nationally recognized competitor; everyone's hope to regain so dignity, yet he lost horribly.
"Another loss," a sweet-looking girl clenched her fists tightly.
The Stick Country Go player looked smug: "The intelligence of Huaxia people is simply trash, competing with such rivals is a disgrace."
"How about this? Let all your players co at once, I'll take on ten," the player said arrogantly.
Ten against one, hearing the player's arrogant words, everyone was filled with rage.
"Ding Dong, new system task acquired: defeat the Stick Country Go player, earn recognition from Go club manager Feng Yan."
Another task arrived, Lin Chen was secretly pleased, but he was clueless about Go.
"Does the system have any items that can quickly enhance my Go skills?"
"Ding dong, host, you can now exchange 1 popularity point for 'Go Master.'"
"Go Master! Okay, exchange!" Lin Chen nodded. A series of Go ga records flashed through his mind, and at that mont, he had beco a Go expert.
At this point, that Go player from Stick Nation was still arrogant, "What, are ten people still not daring to co? Well, let's make it twenty people. You Huaxia people are really disappointing."
"Don't be too cocky, it's just a few wins. What's so great about that?" Suddenly, Feng Yan shouted angrily.
"Haha, not convinced? If you're not convinced why don't one of you defeat , or maybe you, beauty, co. I'll even let you move first," the Go player from Stick Nation arrogantly said.
"You!" Feng Yan's pretty face turned bright red with anger, but she could only fret helplessly.
Why, isn't there a single person in the school who can defeat this bastard?
"What, afraid, aren't you? You Huaxia people are just good at boasting," that Go player from Stick Nation laughed manically.
"As good as you are at boasting, none of you from Stick Nation are as good as those who often steal the quintessence of other nations. You even have the nerve to co here and be arrogant," a cold voice suddenly rang out.
Upon hearing this voice, the Go club quieted down. Today, several players from the Huaxia Go club had been defeated by the Stick Nation player, hence morale was very low, while the Stick Nation player maintained a high-and-mighty attitude.
Everyone's gaze turned toward the direction of the speaker.
"Who, who dares insult our Stick Nation?" the Stick Nation Go player glared angrily at Lin Chen who spoke.
By then, Lin Chen slowly walked to the front desk, "It was who said it, but let clarify, I did not insult your Stick Nation, I rely stated the truth."
Feng Yan was overjoyed to see soone speaking up against the Stick Nation Go player, but her expression soured upon seeing Lin Chen.
Now Lin Chen had beco a well-known figure in the school, having been last in his grades last term, and this term he audaciously claid he would rank first for the year.
Lin Chen even earned a nickna, King of Boasters.
If it were soone else, Feng Yan might still have so hope, but this guy was always at the bottom in exams; how could his intelligence possibly allow him to play Go?
"Kid, you dare to insult our Stick Nation, I want you kneeling and apologizing," the Stick Nation Go player said haughtily.
"Fine, but just now you also insulted our Huaxia. Let's make a bet; we play a ga of Go, and the loser kneels and apologizes to the opposite party," Lin Chen retorted coldly.
"You want to play Go with ?" The Stick Nation player looked at Lin Chen mockingly.
"Hold on!" At that mont, the president of the Go club, Gao Qi, suddenly intervened.
"You are not a mber of our Go club; who let you make reckless bets? Can you bear the consequences if you lose?" Gao Qi said icily.
"Pssh, if it weren't for your incompetence in losing to the Stick Nation player, would I, an old man, need to step in?" Lin Chen said disdainfully.
"It's Lin Chen again."
"How co he's everywhere? How could his intelligence possibly allow him to play Go?"
"Yeah, if we lose and kneel to Stick Nation, it would be Huaxia's honor that's lost."
A murmur of whispers emanated from the audience.
The Stick Nation Go player, having studied in Huaxia for many years and proficient in the Huaxia language, heard these discussions and his face revealed a sneer, "I thought so master was showing up, turns out it's just a boasting master."
Gao Qi also wore a stern face, "Anyway, I won't allow you to disgrace our Huaxia."
Lin Chen frowned slightly, "Huaxia's honor has already been lost by all of you, is there any honor left to lose?"
"What did you say?" After hearing Lin Chen's words, Gao Qi's expression slightly changed.
Lin Chen pointed at the Stick Nation Go player, "Today, brother, I will let you understand what the essence of Go is. I'll show you what quintessence ans."
Saying this, he pushed past Gao Qi and strode towards the Go board.
