CHAPTER 274: CHAPTER 255: FANG ZHENGRONG TAKES THE STAGE

"Do we keep going?"

In the e-sports room of the Jin Fu Hotel, Song Tianyang looked proudly at Shen Yanhua, whose face was full of dejection and despair, and asked.

"Sigh, lost, lost, it’s hopeless."

Among the Jiang family’s relatives, everyone sat there with their heads hanging low, their faces full of defeat.

"This young master of the Song family is really ruthless, leaving no way out!"

"Let’s go, let’s not watch anymore."

Jiang Zhenguo suddenly shouted angrily:

"Stop!"

"Where are you going?"

Several members of the Jiang family who had just gotten up to leave looked dejected after hearing Jiang Zhenguo’s angry shout and said:

"If we don’t go now, are we staying to be laughed at?"

"The young master of the Song family never intended to give us a chance from the beginning, what’s the point in watching any further? To humiliate ourselves?"

...

Faced with the dissatisfaction of the Jiang family members, Jiang Zhenguo remained expressionless and said:

"Who said we definitely lost? Isn’t there one more match?"

Then, in a stern voice, he said:

"Everyone, sit down."

Jiang Zhenguo’s sharp gaze was fixed ahead as he said:

"Anyone who dares to step out of this door now should pack up and get out of the company tomorrow."

"We do not tolerate cowards in the Jiang family."

Upon hearing Jiang Zhenguo’s words, those about to leave couldn’t help but look at each other in astonishment.

Perhaps intimidated by Jiang Zhenguo’s threat, the few of them returned to their seats obediently.

However, looking at their expressions, it didn’t seem like they believed any miracles would happen.

Just like someone had said, staying only meant watching themselves suffer a third consecutive loss, only to humiliate themselves.

After stopping the Jiang family members from leaving, Jiang Zhenguo smiled at Shen Yanhua, who was looking over:

"I said as long as you do your best, it’s fine. It’s not your fault if you lose."

If Jiang Zhenguo had some dissatisfaction with Shen Yanhua initially, after experiencing this event, at least Shen Yanhua proved his sincerity towards his daughter through his actions.

And showed the responsibility that a man should have.

This simple sentence instantly revived the originally despair-filled heart of Shen Yanhua.

What Shen Yanhua thought was:

Yes, I just need to do my best.

If I’m truly no match for others, that’s not something I can change.

Shen Yanhua’s goal was to marry Jiang Jiaying, Jiang Zhenguo’s daughter. As long as Jiang Zhenguo did not blame him, that would be fine.

Isn’t it just one year?

He would just wait!

He firmly believed that no matter what happened in this year, she would definitely understand and wait for him.

And he would put in more effort this year, hoping that one day he could clear his name.

"Second match, Song Tianyang wins."

"Now, let’s invite..."

The host hadn’t even finished speaking when Song Tianyang interrupted, then he looked at Shen Yanhua:

"Do you think there’s any point in having a third match?"

"I think if you admit defeat now, it won’t be so embarrassing, and you won’t waste everyone’s time, don’t you think?"

Fang Zhengrong looked at Shen Yanhua, leaving the decision of whether to compete or not up to Shen Yanhua.

At this moment, Shen Yanhua happened to look at Fang Zhengrong, and the moment their eyes met, Shen Yanhua understood Fang Zhengrong’s thoughts.

Facing the arrogant Song Tianyang, Shen Yanhua didn’t back down and said:

"Although I can’t change the destined result, in this third match..."

"My friend will make you taste the bitterness of defeat as well."

Then Shen Yanhua walked towards Fang Zhengrong and smiled:

"I’ve made a big claim, I’ll leave the rest to you."

Fang Zhengrong could only respond:

"I’ll do my best."

This was Fang Zhengrong’s first one-on-one duel.

No matter what danger he faced in the past, Fang Zhengrong’s duty was to protect those behind him with his body.

And all the damage output was handled by Lin Yi and others, with nothing left for Fang Zhengrong to worry about.

Facing an opponent alone for the first time, Fang Zhengrong wouldn’t dare boast that he could definitely kill the opponent, not even if he was conceited.

Besides, being conceited wasn’t originally part of Fang Zhengrong’s character.

Although he didn’t receive a definitive answer from Fang Zhengrong, as the first Shield Warrior of the Creation Mercenary Corps, he at least wouldn’t lose, right?

Every member of the Creation Mercenary Corps, placed in the game, was a top player in their professional domain.

Unless the opponent managed to bring in a top player like Shengshi Drunkard, Shen Yanhua couldn’t think of anyone else in the game who could kill someone as stable as a mountain, the top Shield Warrior, in a one-on-one match.

Upon seeing Shen Yanhua’s confidence in this middle-aged man, Song Tianyang couldn’t help but laugh:

"You really won’t cry until you see the coffin."

Song Tianyang didn’t take Shen Yanhua’s actions to heart at all.

He turned to the only woman behind him and said:

"Miss Lu, please."

The crowd couldn’t help but create a clamor seeing Song Tianyang send out a woman.

A girl with a somewhat sweet appearance stepped forward, smiled sweetly, and said to Fang Zhengrong:

"Uncle, you better go easy on me later, hehe~"

She playfully blinked, looking quite cute.

While everyone was drawn to the girl, Fang Zhengrong only glanced at her before looking away.

As if the person in front of him was a rough guy and not a sweet and lovely girl, he indifferently replied with a ’Hmm,’ and said no more.

This response left the girl somewhat taken aback, and she pouted with anger:

"Are you always this cold to girls, Uncle?"

Fang Zhengrong said without expression:

"I have a wife and kids, so please behave yourself."

This statement instantly made Shen Yanhua and the Jiang family members laugh at Fang Zhengrong’s serious demeanor.

The girl stood there awkwardly:

"You’re an uncouth old man, huh!"

Fang Zhengrong couldn’t be bothered to pay attention to her and asked the host:

"Can we begin?"

The host standing on stage finally snapped out of his daze from the girl:

"Oh, right!"

"Let’s welcome the third pair of contestants..."

This time, before the host could finish talking, the girl introduced herself:

"I’m Shengshi Yiyi."

When the crowd heard the name, everyone looked as if they had expected it, and no one seemed surprised.

It wouldn’t be surprising if Song Tianyang had spent a lot of money to hire a squad from the Shengshi Dynasty.

At this moment, Fang Zhengrong also reported his name:

"Stable as a Mountain."

"Oh, Stable as a Mountain?"

Song Tianyang couldn’t help but taunt when he heard this name:

"It really suits your uncle-like temperament."

Originally, Song Tianyang thought his taunt would gain approval from those around him, but unexpectedly, it was unusually quiet.

Song Tianyang looked at everyone staring blankly at Fang Zhengrong walking toward the partition:

"What are you..."

As an outstanding young man, Song Tianyang wasn’t foolish.

He suddenly seemed to understand something from the eyes of these people and said in surprise:

"Is this person very famous?"

However, the reply to Song Tianyang came from the girl who was just laughing, now looking like she was about to cry:

"Why am I so unlucky, sob sob~~"

Song Tianyang, who was originally confident of victory, suddenly felt bewildered:

"What exactly is going on?"

"Is he very strong?"

At this moment, behind Song Tianyang, that Shengshi Blade spoke:

"Very strong!"

And on the Jiang Family side, those older uncles were blushing and saying:

"It’s him, it’s him, damn."

"Uncle, mind your image!"

"Screw you, can’t I be excited?"

"I never thought I would see him here in person. What’s this kid’s relation to him?"

"I thought that person looked familiar, didn’t expect it was really him."

"No way, no way, I have to get his autograph later. My grandson and granddaughter adore him!"

Jiang Zhenguo also seemed a bit surprised:

"Is this Stable as a Mountain person very powerful?"

At this moment, a man who looked at least forty or fifty said with the demeanor of a fan:

"Don’t you play as well? How could you not recognize the number one Shield Warrior of the Creation Mercenary Corps?"

"Stable as a Mountain from the Creation Mercenary Corps!"

At this moment in the restaurant, when people saw the figure in gilded armor on the screen, the place burst into excitement.

"He’s actually in our hotel, oh my god, am I dreaming?"

"It’s really him!"

Seeing Stable as a Mountain step by step towards the Teleportation Array, the girls in the restaurant excitedly jumped on the spot:

"So handsome, so handsome, sob sob~~"

Even some guys couldn’t help but sigh:

"Seeing the first tank’s glory duel here makes this meal worth it."

Someone suddenly suggested:

"Will anyone team up to get his autograph later?"

As soon as this person spoke, people in the restaurant quickly responded:

"I’m going!"

"Me."

"Count me in."

"And me"...

Someone speculated:

"I wonder if Feng Hua is here too. If Feng Hua is here, that would be great."

"I like the Rabbit Divine Shepherd, I wonder if she’s as beautiful in reality."

"I prefer Zhan Chen, he’s so handsome!"

...

With the appearance of Stable as a Mountain, the atmosphere in the restaurant instantly became lively.

At this moment, the figure in the fire-red magic robe on the screen, ’Shengshi Yiyi’, was unanimously ignored by everyone.

When the two of them stepped onto Hundred Flowers Slope, the people in the restaurant gradually quieted down:

"Everyone be quiet, it’s starting."

At this point, someone only then noticed Shengshi Yiyi’s identity:

"Isn’t she the main damage dealer of the Shengshi Vanguard Team?"

"This woman is tough too!"

With Shengshi Yiyi’s identity revealed, everyone couldn’t help but exclaim:

"This is truly a match between strong contenders!"

Now everyone wanted to see who was stronger, the powerful damage dealer or the strongest shield warrior.

On the picturesque Hundred Flowers Slope, Fang Zhengrong gestured to the opponent:

"I’m about to start."

But before he finished speaking, a flame came rushing toward him.

Seeing this, people were outraged:

"That woman is ambushing!"

But facing the sudden flame, Fang Zhengrong calmly placed his shield in front of him:

"-185"

After the flame passed, Fang Zhengrong saw the opponent chanting the next magic.

Fang Zhengrong held his heavy shield; even though he was facing a delicate woman, his eyes were still filled with a chilling coldness.

"I’m sorry, but the humiliation my brother suffered can only be washed away with a thorough and exhilarating victory."

Recalling his friend who had been humiliated and led by the nose by Song Tianyang.

Perhaps this was the only thing he could do for him now.

Amid exclamations:

Fang Zhengrong’s body bent slightly, his right toe kicked up a cloud of dust as he charged explosively toward his opponent:

"Powerful Strike!"

...

"Creak~ Slam."

Song Tianyang turned to look at the figure appearing at the door, frowning:

"Who?"

Guo Shaojie looked at Shen Yanhua, who also wore a puzzled expression, and smiled meaningfully:

"Looking for a friend."
