The City’s Strongest Son-in-law Chapter 1555 - 1554: The Competition Begins
Previously on The City’s Strongest Son-in-law...
Su Changfeng nodded and then walked directly inside.
Ji Hong understood that her status did not allow her to watch the match here, so she said to Ji Hong, "Auntie, thank you, I should head back now."
Ji Hong pulled Gao Yuan and said, "It’s fine. Since we’re already here, it would be a pity to leave without watching the competition. Let’s stay and watch, shall we?"
Gao Yuan naturally agreed, as she was also very curious about how powerful Su Changfeng really was.
However, Su Changfeng was speechless upon hearing this, because now Ji Hong seemed to want Gao Yuan to be with him. Even though Ji Hong hadn’t directly said it, Su Changfeng wasn’t a fool.
This situation left Su Changfeng very puzzled. Did Ji Hong think he couldn’t find a partner?
How old is he now, and Ji Hong is already starting to think about this?
Upon arriving inside, he saw that the place was already filled, with each family sitting in their designated area, talking about something.
When they saw Zhou Yunqi and Su Changfeng arriving together, almost everyone’s attention was focused on them.
"Zhou Yunqi is here!"
"The person next to Zhou Yunqi must be Su Changfeng, right?"
"Oh my, he looks so young! How could such a kid be participating in this competition? What is Zhou Yunqi thinking?!"
"What is the Zhou Family thinking, letting a child represent their family in the competition? It’s ridiculous!"
Most of these people were seeing Su Changfeng for the first time, so they did not hide their disdain for him when they spoke, but because they were afraid of upsetting Zhou Yunqi, they spoke very quietly.
Just because they spoke softly didn’t mean everyone was afraid of Zhou Yunqi. Wang Wenli, seeing Su Changfeng and Zhou Yunqi arrive, stepped forward with a mocking tone.
"Zhou Yunqi, you really brought this guy here, didn’t you? Such a joke!"
Initially, Zhou Yunqi mistook Ye Weijun for Su Changfeng, leading to an embarrassing moment in front of Wang Wenli. But things are different now; Su Changfeng is not that useless guy!
"Wang Wenli, I think what you say now is pointless. Just wait for the competition, and you’ll see who’s truly skilled. I wonder what your reaction will be then?" Zhou Yunqi remarked to Wang Wenli.
Wang Wenli burst out laughing and said, "Haha, Zhou Yunqi, I’m really curious to see how strong this little guy is, that your Zhou Family put all their hopes on him!"
Zhou Yunqi didn’t bother to engage with Wang Wenli, not wanting to waste words. He shot Wang Wenli a glance and led Su Changfeng and others to their family’s seating area.
Seeing Zhou Yunqi ignoring him, Wang Wenli wasn’t bothered. Instead, he continued, "By the way, this competition should be quite exciting; I just wonder how your family’s boy will perform!"
A knowing look appeared in Zhou Yunqi’s eyes; he was aware that Wang Wenli had altered the sequence of the matches a bit.
This time, Su Changfeng would probably face the person Wang Wenli arranged as soon as he stepped into the arena.
Actually, Zhou Yunqi and others were aware of these arrangements, but they said nothing, wanting to see the look of shock on Wang Wenli and co.’s faces later.
When Su Changfeng and others sat down, they were met with mocking and disdainful looks from the crowd.
Su Changfeng didn’t care and simply closed his eyes, as if these people didn’t exist.
Zhou Yunqi whispered to Su Changfeng, "Chang Feng, you are likely to be the sixth to go, and the opponent will be someone arranged by Wang Wenli."
Su Changfeng nodded and said, "If so, their skills shouldn’t be poor?"
Zhou Yunqi nodded and said, "Yes, three people came from Wang Wenli’s side, but your first opponent will be the weakest among them. Nevertheless, you must not underestimate them."
Su Changfeng smiled and nodded, finding Wang Wenli’s precautionary move rather decent, as they didn’t send their best right away.
"Hmm."
Su Changfeng maintained a serene attitude.
At this moment, the competition had already started, and everyone was intently watching the matches on stage, except for Su Changfeng, who still had his eyes closed, seemingly asleep.
This made everyone feel even more disdainful, though some were quite curious about exactly how formidable Su Changfeng was for the Zhou family to make such a decision.
Thus, everyone eagerly anticipated witnessing Su Changfeng’s match. As time passed, it was almost time for Su Changfeng’s turn!
Gao Yuan was incredibly nervous, even hearing her own heartbeat, knowing many were eager to see Su Changfeng humiliated.
But that only made Gao Yuan even more determined for Su Changfeng to defeat his opponent and show everyone his true strength.
When Su Changfeng’s opponent appeared on the stage, Gao Yuan’s heart sank completely.
This opponent was a tall, muscular figure, almost like an ape!
On seeing this person, everyone was shocked, and their disdain for Su Changfeng increased, thinking he couldn’t possibly be a match for this guy.
Given the physical disparity, how could a child possibly beat such an opponent?
Meanwhile, everyone was also curious; with the Zhou family betting on Su Changfeng, he must have something up his sleeve, right?
Therefore, everyone wondered if the Zhou family had lost their minds.
Gao Yuan’s breathing grew rapid, worrying about Su Changfeng facing this hulking figure—one big punch and he might be done for!
Gao Yuan, looking worriedly at Ji Hong, asked, "Auntie, will Su Changfeng be alright?"
Ji Hong had seen Su Changfeng’s skills before, even defeating Huo Tian, but even she was now concerned about Su Changfeng’s exact capabilities in light of this huge opponent.
Seeing such a formidable figure, Ji Hong’s heart began to worry as well.
