Chapter 437: Gu Qingjiu, Actual Combat 2
As per normal universities, grades were the bane of students.
This caused Feng Yumeng to not only worry about herself but also Gu Qingjiu.
Gu Qingjiu pat Feng Yumeng on her shoulder. “Just do your best. It’s okay to lose. I won’t blame you.”
She knew that Feng Yumeng gave herself immense pressure, but she didn’t know her skills.
She needed to see her fight before she could tell if she still had hope.
Three minutes blinked by.
Long Xiaowen and Feng Yumeng approached the stage.
Gu Qingjiu looked on. Solely based on their expressions, Feng Yumeng already lost.
Long Xiaowen was imposing and her fighting pose seemed strong as well.
While Feng Yumeng seemed like she was shrinking.
Looking at this, she was definitely going to lose.
As expected, the moment the instructor said to start, Feng Yumeng started to panic.
The moves she learned were wiped cleanly from her brain in that instance.
Just like how you would suddenly recall song lyrics in the middle of an examination…
When Long Xiaowen came at her, she had no idea how to react.
She forcefully brought her arms up to block the punches, but Long Xiaowen’s feet still brought her down with one sweep.
Thud.
Although it was soft mat below, tears welled up in Feng Yumeng’s eyes as she fell.
Three seconds later, the instructor announced Long Xiaowen as the victor.
Seeing the tears in Feng Yumeng’s eyes, Long Xiaowen felt sorry. “I didn’t hurt you, did I?”
Feng Yumeng shook her head but with those tears, she appeared pitiful.
She moved out of the arena and looked at Gu Qingjiu.
Her expression reminded Gu Qingjiu of her neighbor’s pug when it did something wrong.
She couldn’t find it in herself to scold her.
Gu Qingjiu caressed Feng Yumeng’s head. “I’ve already said that it’s okay to lose but after this lesson, let’s stay a little longer.”
“Ah?”
It stunned Feng Yumeng.
But Gu Qingjiu didn’t explain further since her match was about to begin.
This was her first duel session ever since she entered military school.
Perhaps because of that and her nickname as a sharpshooter, many people had their attention on this match.
Long Xiaohe and Long Xiaowen discussed with each other softly while Gu Qingjiu prepared herself.
When she was almost done preparing, she moved to the center of the field.
Long Xiaohe stood on the opposite side of Gu Qingjiu, smiling lightly at her.
Gu Qingjiu returned it with a light smile.
The instructor looked at the two of them. When he was about to announce the start of the match, Long Xiaohe readied her stance while Gu Qingjiu remained unmoving.
The instructor was befuddled by her lack of reaction but continued, “Begin!”
The moment the word left his lips, Long Xiaohe leaped into action, jumping at her with a kick.
As expected, she was different from Long Xiaowen. Long Xiaowen’s fighting style was more restrained, especially when she was against Feng Yumeng.
Long Xiaohe’s fighting style was more aggressive.
If it was any other normal girl, Long Xiaohe’s kick would have probably caused her opponents to crumble.
People around gasped, but it didn’t fluster Gu Qingjiu.
She narrowed her eyes. In the instance the girl dashed over, she quickly dodged the blow.
Gu Qingjiu’s response speed was indeed fast.
Long Xiaohe’s reaction was not slow either. The moment she touched ground, she used the momentum to kick her other leg upwards.
Her target was Gu Qingjiu’s neck!
