Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane! - Chapter 115
Chapter 115: Fatty, Don’t Run!
Meng Chao was stunned. “Bro, you seem to have quite some prejudice against Mr. Gu. Isn’t he teaching the refresher course? Why are you still talking bad about him if that’s the case?”
“It’s precisely because he’s designated to teach us that I know his true character!” the fatty said in no uncertain terms. “Gu Jianbo is the typical person who decided to give up on hope after he couldn’t improve in his academic studies and decided to just earn money. The realms of the students who work in society aren’t high, but they have a lot of connections in society.
“Gu Jianbo thinks about how to take our money all the time. In fact, he has used the label of Agricultural University’s martial arts course to organize training classes outside in secret. When he earns money, he spends it lavishly and just has fun. Think, can a person who stinks of money and has no aspirations become your tutor?”
Meng Chao looked at him with puzzlement.
The fatty’s words did not fit the image of the “creator of the Ultimate Style and the pioneer who found the way alone in the dark” based on the memories of his previous life!
“You don’t believe in me?” The fatty blinked and whispered in a very mysterious manner, “Let me tell you something, and you’ll know just how rotten this person is. Do you know why these two groups of people fought today?”
“Yeah.” Meng Chao nodded. “Because the students working in society bet that the monster controller course would win, and they won a lot of monster coins. So they came over to eat good food, and this provoked the martial arts course students who lost.”
“That’s right. Now think, who gave us the guts to bet all our money that the monster controller course would win? You must know that it’s really difficult for the students working in society to earn monster coins. It’s at least ten times more difficult compared to all of you proper undergraduate students!”.
Meng Chao was stunned. “Could it be?”
“That’s right. It’s Gu Jianbo!” the fatty said. “He’s a martial arts course’s lecturer, so it’s not appropriate for him to publicly bet that his competitors would win, but he provoked us in the dark and even analyzed the strengths of both sides in great detail. He managed to predict that the monster controller course would win seven rounds. Just like that, the refresher course managed to earn a lot of money. Of course, we got into this trouble as well.
“Alright, I gambled as well, and I managed to earn some money. But that’s that, and this is this. We must be impartial when doing things. He’s really despicable, and I can’t bear watching you jump into the fire. You have to think carefully!”
Meng Chao scratched his head for a long time.
“But I heard that Mr. Gu has researched deeply the fighting with branch meridians, and I really admire his ideas, which is why I really want to explore the related fields with him. I’m serious!” he said.
“Rubbish,” the fatty said in disdain. “We’ve all heard of Gu Jianbo’s research before. It’s that stupid Project 1024. He lauds it to the high skies, but it has been abandoned a long time ago. He just mentions it for advertisement to the refresher course students to attract the ignorant ones working in society. He’s just trying to get money!”
“No way,” Meng Chao said firmly. “I think that your prejudice toward Mr. Gu is too great. The real Mr. Gu is definitely not someone you speak of. He’s someone who has been walking alone for years in the dark but was not defeated despite all the troubles. He’s a prideful pioneer who will not mind sacrificing his own life!”
This time, it was the fatty’s turn to be dumbfounded. He stared at Meng Chao for a long time as if he had just seen an idiot. He said, “How do you know that? Do you know each other?”
“He’s a friend in spirit. I just haven’t met him yet,” Meng Chao said. “I’ve been Mr. Gu’s spiritual friend for a long time, and I’m definitely going to become his student!”
“Kid, why do you insist on suffering like this?” Rhe fatty instinctively rubbed his bum. “Look, over the past two years, Gu Jianbo has only taught the refresher course and not picked a single undergraduate student. And you’ve just defeated Ma Hong, the most popular student in the refresher course. Do you think that you’ll have a good time beside Gu Jianbo?
“On the other hand, the undergraduate students hate the students from society the most. Because of it, they hate Gu Jianbo as well. If you insist on becoming Gu Jianbo’s student, you will naturally be hated by both sides. At that time, both sides will target you, and you will have a hard time living!”
“I’m not afraid!” Meng Chao said firmly. “He’s reforming the concept of fighting, not taking a walk in the park and talking to friends. I’m prepared to be targeted by countless people, and I will use truth and reasoning to convince them. As long as I’m sure that old Mr. Gu’s direction is correct, before long, he will turn the brand new fighting style written in his articles, with which one can win all fights, into reality!”
“Old…” The fat on the fatty’s cheeks trembled a little.
As they spoke, the students’ fights grew fiercer.
“We can’t just keep hiding like this. Look over there. Ma Hong has come over. He’s looking for you!” the fatty whispered. “We have to run, or else things will be bad for us. If we’re lucky, we’ll just be beaten up, but if we’re not, we’ll be captured by the deans. Let’s do this. We have to fight!”
Meng Chao was puzzled. “What?”
“This is a fight between students, not a life and death fight between monsters. We have some rules here. Look, everyone is fighting one against one. No one is ganging up on a person,” the fatty explained. “We can pretend to be fighting and secretly move to the window and jump. This may be the third floor, but since you can get twenty-five thousand worth of monster coins, this height should be nothing to you, right?”
Meng Chao thought about it. “Makes sense. Okay.”
“Come on, then,” the fatty said. He removed his suit and wrapped it around his head.
“What’s that for? Are you afraid of someone recognizing you?”
Meng Chao really wanted to say, ‘It’s useless even if you wrap your face. With your size, if you wore a skin suit, you could pretend to be a Demonic Halberd Pig. Everyone can recognize you!’
“I just did my hair, and it cost me 580!” the fatty said and kicked away the table. He shouted, “Come on!”
Meng Chao hesitated for a moment before he started fighting against the fatty.
He thought that the fatty was just a student working in society and was not a Red Dragon Army scout like Ma Hong, so he might really be a chef from some hotel who had awakened accidentally while working with food, so Meng Chao did not dare to fight seriously. He only made a few casual moves.
“Are you putting up a play now?” the fatty reminded him softly. “Do you think that the others are stupid and can’t tell? Hurry up, use more strength and make it more real!”
“I’m worried that you won’t be able to stand it,” Meng Chao said. “I’m really fierce.”
“Rubbish. I’m a member of society. How would I not have that bit of resistance to hits?” As the fatty spoke, he threw a punch over.
He might have been plump, but he had a lot of power. His punch nearly knocked the wind out of Meng Chao’s lungs.
Meng Chao gritted his teeth and launched his counterattack. He used his hand as a saber and activated his Ultimate Level future One Hundred Saber Technique. His attacks came like endless waves, and each wave was greater than the last.
“Oh ho, not bad. As expected of the top scorer in the admission test!” The fatty’s eyes lit up, and like a Demonic Halberd Pig wearing skates, he started dancing around in the shadows of Meng Chao’s punches.
Since Meng Chao was at Ultimate Level, he could naturally use his attacks at ease. He was very confident that he could control every inch of his and the fatty’s muscles. He could make sure that the situation looked shocking, but he would not harm the fatty in the slightest.
But against his expectations, the fatty’s spins seemed to contain some sort of mysterious power. Unexpectedly, it caused Meng Chao to lose his center of gravity and his composure, and he had to keep increasing his speed and strength.
A short ten seconds later, Meng Chao had to use every cell in his body and grit his teeth as he fought at full strength.
But the fatty still looked as if it was nothing. He just kept egging Meng Chao on. “Hurry up! Hurry up! You have to put up a convincing act! Your attacks can’t be so weak!
“That slash just now was pretty convincing, but too slow. It makes your act seem exaggerated, and it all boils down to one word—fake!
“Aim at the heart! I gave you such a huge opening, but you didn’t aim at my heart! Are you blind and giving me a massage?”
During that short minute, Meng Chao was toyed around by the fatty, and he became even more tired than during the admission test. Even if that test had lasted for half an hour!
He really wanted to throw his head back and shout, “I’m already using all my strength! Why are you so nimble even though you’re so fat?! That doesn’t make sense!”
But before he could say anything, he sensed an intense gaze stab into him.
‘It’s Ma Hong!’
Meng Chao’s heart shuddered.
He really did not want to fight against the elite Red Dragon Army scout out of the blue.
But against his expectations, when Ma Hong noticed him fighting against the fatty, a really strange look appeared on his face. Without another word, he turned around and searched for another opponent.
The other students working in society also saw Meng Chao “dancing” around with the fatty, and they were stunned. They did not come to bother them.
“Do they really obey the rules so much?” Meng Chao was a little dumbfounded.
“Of course. Everyone is in the martial arts course, and fighting is daily entertainment. It’s not as bad as you think it is. It’s only natural that they will obey the rules.”
The fatty easily avoided the ruthless upward swing Meng Chao had learned from the experience in his previous life. Instead, like a venomous snake, he bit down on Meng Chao’s wrist. “One, two, three! Jump!”
Meng Chao was absolutely baffled. He found himself dragged out of the window, which was on the third floor, by the fatty.
Fortunately, there was a parterre below, and they landed on the dirt.
Meng Chao left two footprints that were half an inch deep, but the fatty was like a balloon. He landed gently and did not leave behind a single mark.
“You…”
Meng Chao stared at the fatty in puzzlement. He felt that this person had unfathomable strength and was an even better fighter than Ma Hong.
“It was shocking, but we’re out of danger. At least we broke free.” The fatty sighed in relief and said with a grin, “Bye, kid. Here’s a last warning for you. If you look for Gu Jianbo as your tutor, you will definitely run into a deadend. It’s better if you look for someone else.
“I think you’ll have a bright future if you look for Griffin Li Yingzi. She’s elegant, as beautiful as a flower, kind, serious, responsible, and her beast soul fusion is peerless. She’s definitely a shining beacon of light in your cultivation path. Don’t thank me and just go on ahead!”
As he spoke, he covered his head and tried to sneak away.
“Wait, bro,” Meng Chao quickly said. “We clicked pretty well, didn’t we? We also had a good time fighting just now. What’s your name? How can I find you? If we have the chance, let’s spar again!”
“There are plenty of cultivation maniacs in the martial arts course. There’s also the monster controller course, the military school at the edge of the town, the University of Technology, University of Science, and Medical University. All of them have their unique fighting courses and genii who love fighting so much that they might as well marry martial arts. Since you’re the top scorer in the admission test, they will definitely look for you soon. You’ll have plenty of people who will spar with you later.”
The fatty swung his arms, and like a Demonic Halberd Pig that had just survived a disaster, he jogged off and vanished behind a corner.
Meng Chao wanted to say something, but he did not in the end.
He felt that there was something strange, but he could not put it to words.
Before he could figure it out, the fatty ran back at twice the speed. In a panic, he ran past Meng Chao.
“Gu Jianbo, stay where you are!”
Griffin Li Yingzi came after him from behind the corner and hissed through gritted teeth.
Meng Chao looked as if he had been struck by lightning. His jaw fell open.
“Kid, move aside!” The fatty swung his arms.
“O-oh, okay.” Meng Chao quickly moved to the side, but he extended a leg before the fatty’s feet.
