Lin Weiwei showed off her swimming skills, attracting attention and jealousy from a group including Binge, Fain, Tiwei'er, and Kuna. Tiwei'er and Kuna, spurred by Fain's comments and their own rivalry with Lin Weiwei, decided to one-up her in the pool. Meanwhile, Bai Xiaosheng received an alert indicating Lai Mo and Buchi had begun their task. As Binge and Fain prepared to leave with Tiwei'er and Kuna, Bai Xiaosheng challenged them to a match, promising Lin Weiwei revenge.

Bai Xiaosheng openly issued a challenge, his voice loud and immediately attracting many gazes from those around him. Not only that, Bai Xiaosheng worried that others might not know whom he was challenging, so he even pointed at Binge, indicating the target to the people present.

Curious glances from all around turned into whispers.

"What’s this about, a duel?"

"A showdown in the swimming pool, interesting!"

"The Asian man’s female companion was provoked just now, is this some kind of retaliation?"

"Interesting!"

Men and women of various skin tones whispered quietly by the poolside, their eyes glimmering as they gathered around.

The love for a spectacle is a common trait among all humans.

The atmosphere suddenly intensified.

Binge originally wanted to quickly leave with Tiwei’er and Kuna to avoid any complications.

Among the two men on the opposing side, the burly Asian had once smashed a steel pipe, leaving a deep impression on him, causing him fear.

Initially, he thought it was just some silent conflict between women, and that the two men would not get involved due to pride. Binge didn’t expect that this young man opposite would point at him and actually issue a challenge.

Binge’s first reaction was that he didn’t want to accept the challenge.

However, more and more people around turned their gaze on him, expectantly. Some were pointing, some were whistling.

Among these people were many beauties, all scrutinizing him with their eyes.

If he avoided the fight in front of so many beauties, it would truly be embarrassing.

Binge, as a man’s pride, was evidently challenged by this.

"Isn’t it just a swimming race? Binge, accept the challenge!"

Beside him, Kuna swung her pink fists, excitedly urging him.

Just recently, she flawlessly defeated the Asian woman opposite, winning applause from the crowd, boosting her confidence.

She hadn’t yet had the chance to bask in more praise; how could they just leave?

"Swimming is no big deal for you, compete with them!"

Tiwei’er also enjoyed the feeling of being in the spotlight, and she absolutely had confidence in Binge.

Next to them, Fain said, "Compete, Binge, with our strength, what is there to worry about? It’s not like it’s a fight, it’s just swimming!"

With even Fain saying this, Binge hesitated for a moment, then walked to the poolside, facing Bai Xiaosheng from a distance, with a slight smile on his face, showing his aura, and loudly said, "Alright!"

He accepted the challenge.

Suddenly, the entire crowd’s eyes lit up.

Seeing the provocation succeed, Bai Xiaosheng naturally smiled contentedly.

He could stand up for Lin Weiwei for what had just happened and stall them, providing Lei Mo and Buchi an opportunity—it was brilliant.

This counted as achieving two goals with one action.

"Are we really going to compete?"

Lin Weiwei clung to the poolside, glanced back, and said softly with some uncertainty.

She had seen the level of those two women earlier; they were definitely top-tier, and her skills were definitely not on par.

Bai Xiaosheng and Lei Ying, the two men, might not necessarily be opponents.

In the pool, could they outshine two beauties?

Lin Weiwei was genuinely worried.

Bai Xiaosheng raised his arms, extending his two index fingers to point at the bar terraces on either side of the pool, loudly declaring, "Whoever loses, will treat everyone to a drink!"

After he said this, the crowd erupted in applause and whistles, and even those at other pools rushed over upon hearing the news.

In an instant, the area around the pool was packed.

Seeing Bai Xiaosheng steal his limelight once more, Binge gritted his teeth with hatred, secretly thinking: soon, I’ll make sure you lose face!

Tiwei’er and Kuna’s levels were clearly just witnessed, with the two women’s strengths similar.

But no one knew that Kuna had been trained by him, Binge.

He was the real expert!

To demonstrate his confidence and capability, Binge pointed at Bai Xiaosheng in front of everyone, loudly saying, "No problem! To be fair, if you catch up to me, I’ll concede it’s your win!"

After speaking, Binge took two steps to the poolside, raised his hand, and said, "Everyone, ready, time us!"

The spectators, seeing this, quickly took out their phones and watches, readying them.

After over a minute, Binge finished warming up and leapt into the pool.

An exceptionally standard diving posture, making one want to applaud.

The poolside people, seeing the competition begin, suddenly quieted down, staring with wide eyes.

Bai Xiaosheng and Lei Ying stood at the opposite side, watching Binge’s performance.

Huaxia has an old saying, "like a fish in water," regardless of its original meaning, it perfectly fits Binge’s performance now.

In the water, this guy moved with a fluidity not resembling a human, each time he surfaced to breathe was brief to the point where ordinary people would think he couldn’t get air, yet he’d already finished breathing, swimming far in one go, with such beautiful technique that people couldn’t help but applaud.

"I didn’t realize he swims even better than those two women," Bai Xiaosheng couldn’t help but praise.

Lei Ying’s gaze fixed intently on Binge in the water, he confidently stated, "That woman named Kuna must have learned from him. The technique is very similar."

Lin Weiwei was both startled and worried, "Even better than those two women?"

Soon, Binge reached Bai Xiaosheng and the others, kicked off the wall underwater, darting back like a fish.

This was a 50-meter pool, it seems he wasn’t just showing off, he competed with speed as well.

The spectators kept time, while some continuously shouted "great" and "go."

"Well, can you beat him?" Bai Xiaosheng asked Lei Ying beside him, turning his face.

Lei Ying kept his gaze fixed on Binge, a smile curling his lips, "Let’s give it a try!"
