Kung Fu Baby with 17 Doting Brothers-Chapter 638: All Just a Routine

After Duan Xiayou stole the spotlight, a lot of people set their eyes on Li Zhou.

It’s not that they didn’t want to challenge Tantai Yi, but this white-haired, golden-eyed man could freeze people with just a wave of his hand, which was too terrifying and beyond their understanding.

Being targeted, Li Zhou waved them off, refusing these challenges.

He was self-aware; when he was injured and traveled to his master’s side, he spent most of his time healing rather than learning much Inner Strength or sword techniques. Moreover, as a Beastman, he possessed powerful spiritual power, strong physical attributes, great strength, and speed, which did not suit martial arts competition.

The more he refused, the more enthusiastic everyone became, even suspecting that he was a secret weapon with a chance of winning the championship.

Those who wanted to shine in the martial arts tournament especially targeted him.

Li Zhou had to speed walk around the venue.

"Even walking so fast, and you say you can’t fight?"

Everyone had the right to challenge and refuse, but if you were thick-skinned enough, you could keep pestering the other party despite refusal.

Thus, there was such a scene in the arena: a young man with tanned skin ran like the wind, followed by a group of people in various training clothes. These people were of all ages and genders, a scene that somewhat resembled a celebrity chase.

Even the curly-haired, black-eyed man whom Tuanzi earnestly challenged was intrigued and joined the chase.

Tuanzi: "..."

Tuanzi walked over to Tantai Yi with a downcast expression.

Her body softened, as if bent by life’s burdens, and she collapsed directly into Tantai Yi’s arms.

"Third Senior Brother, Miaomiao’s heart is so tired."

The white-haired, golden-eyed man caught her, offering words of comfort as before.

"It’s they who are blind."

After a pause, Tantai Yi suggested, "How about I challenge you?"

He assumed his junior sister wanted to attract everyone’s attention.

"No need."

Tuanzi rolled around in his arms, pouting and whining, "If no one challenges, then no one challenges. If they don’t accept Miaomiao’s challenge, then they don’t accept it. Miaomiao has decided, to make a stunning impression at the martial arts tournament!"

Tantai Yi wouldn’t oppose her decision.

"As long as you’re happy."

Tuanzi rolled around a few more times, "I learned this from Brother Wen Li."

She admitted openly, "He’s been writing a novel recently, and to create impactful moments, he always incorporates some face-slapping scenes."

Tantai Yi wasn’t as familiar with modern concepts as Ji Zhangzhuo, who occasionally shared some fresh buzzwords with him. It’s said that playing dumb and face-slapping are common tropes in online literature, despite being old, a skilled writer can still captivate the readers.

Due to Wen Li’s frequent visits to the Gu Mansion recently, he had also come to understand Wen Li.

"He doesn’t seem to like writing clichés."

"Yes, he prefers writing unexpected twists," Tuanzi accidentally revealed that she’d read Wen Li’s horror novels, "scaring the readers into screaming."

[Ancient Martial System: Were you the one screaming in fear, afraid to read his novels again?]

Tuanzi pretended not to hear, a skill she had long mastered.

"But Brother Wen Li said that writing like that is especially taxing on the brain and hair, so to protect his hair," Tuanzi spread her hands, shrugging helplessly, "he decided to write something lighthearted and mindless."

The audience listened attentively to the conversation between the senior brother and junior sister.

[Wen Li? Is he your cousin?]

[Is Cousin a writer? And does he write horror novels? Give us his pen name, I love reading that genre!]

[Is this considered advertising for her cousin?]

[But she didn’t reveal her cousin’s pseudonym, how can it be considered advertising?]

[It seems that outstanding people all know each other]

[So Miaomiao plans to emulate her cousin’s writing strategy, hiding her true strength initially and then face-slapping at the martial arts tournament?]

[That works, I’m looking forward to seeing the surprised and regretful expressions of those people]

[Even as a mascot, her skills are excellent]

[Look, the senior brother just finished a sparring match and was about to rest, but everyone lined up to challenge him, so he could only run away]

[It’s hilarious, what was supposed to be free challenge time turned into a hundred-person chase]

The event organizers were also stunned by this turn of events.

Several officials had to step in to stop this behavior.

"Since they aren’t willing, choose someone else."

Some people stuck to their original plans to challenge their target, while others remained fixated on Duan Xiayou and Li Zhou, leaving the two to hide within their teams to avoid calamity.

In contrast, Tuanzi was genuinely overlooked.

She held a huge thermos bottle, gulping ’ton-ton-ton’ water. After drinking, she wiped her mouth boldly, "Not mad, not mad, anyway, those who’ll regret in the end are them, not mad, not mad..."

The system dared not interject.

The more you emphasize it, the more problematic it seems.

But the host was so gloomy that she was unwilling to showcase her skills, causing the challenge session to fall into a deadlock.

That evening, to cheer up the host, the system told her some good news.

[Ancient Martial System: After Third Senior Brother’s demonstration, the reputation value soared, and by the time Senior Brother finished sparring, the reputation value had reached seven billion]

Tuanzi’s mouth dropped open.

"Se-Seven billion already? But before going abroad, wasn’t it just tens of millions away from seven billion?"

As expected, Tuanzi forgot about the challenge and shifted her focus back to the reputation value.

[Ancient Martial System: Don’t forget, those attending the exchange meeting are all well-versed in martial arts. Even though the history and specific style moves of martial arts in each country differ, the recognition of martial arts is similar]

In simple terms, validation from professionals can provide a substantial amount of reputation value.

[Ancient Martial System: And recently, many netizens have been sharing your videos on foreign websites, and Second Senior Brother had done a lot of preparatory work previously, leading many foreigners to have a basic understanding of our country’s traditional martial arts. Although the reputation value each person provides is less than that of professionals, when accumulated, it’s still a significant number]

Tuanzi couldn’t help but let out a ’wow’.

"There are a lot of people abroad too."

[Ancient Martial System: Furthermore, the platform with exclusive broadcast rights has been promoting this exchange meeting constantly, so many users open the application to see this event on the splash screen, and a click leads directly to the live stream. Some of them who were previously unaware have gained understanding now, which will naturally provide reputation value. Some were already aware, and your performances this time enhanced their recognition of domestic traditional culture, offering a substantial amount of reputation value as well]

Layer by layer, an international martial arts exchange meeting spurred a surge in reputation value.

[Ancient Martial System: Don’t forget, this is merely the first phase of the exchange meeting, focusing primarily on discussions, with personal challenges as a complement. When it comes to the martial arts tournament, with prior buildup and publicity, it will be the prime opportunity for a reputation value explosion. You need to be mentally prepared]

While Tuanzi was listening with a passionate heart, upon hearing the words ’mentally prepared,’ she was utterly confused.

"What mental preparation?" she asked, scratching her head in bewilderment. "Because the reputation value is increasing too fast, and I shouldn’t get too carried away with joy?"

[Ancient Martial System: No, this international exchange meeting is a very good opportunity, maybe you don’t even need a few senior brothers to help, it might help you accumulate ten billion reputation values in the shortest possible time, and you might see your parents before the new year]

Tuanzi’s hand froze in mid-scratch.
