177: Chapter 177: You Really Seem Like a Joker 177: Chapter 177: You Really Seem Like a Joker “Peng Xiaotian, are you really going to surrender voluntarily?” The referee walked up to Peng Xiaotian and asked solemnly.
Peng Xiaotian nodded in frustration, saying, “Yes, referee, I don’t want to lose all four quarters with zero points, I give up.”
“Well, if that’s the case, it’s up to you.” The referee also knew that the Wind and Cloud Team was beyond recovery and had no chance of winning, so voluntarily surrendering wasn’t a bad choice.
Then, the referee faced the thousands of spectators in the stands and announced loudly, “Captain of the Wind and Cloud Team, Peng Xiaotian, has voluntarily surrendered.
The champion of this centennial celebration basketball tournament is the Flying Team.”
The stands erupted in cheers once again.
Then, the referee had the staff present the trophy and prize money to Lin Fei.
“Congratulations!” The referee extended his hand to Lin Fei, sincerely congratulating him.
“Thank you, sir.” Lin Fei shook hands with the referee.
“Lin Fei, I hope that in two months, you can participate in the Huadu City basketball tournament and again set new records for Huadu University,” the referee looked at Lin Fei and eagerly said.
Huadu City basketball tournament?
Lin Fei remembered Xu Wei mentioning that the Crown Team didn’t participate in this celebration basketball tournament because they weren’t interested in the tournament’s small prize money; they were preparing for the city tournament to win the five million prize.
Lin Fei then asked the referee, “Referee, I’ve heard that our school’s top-ranked Crown Team is also preparing to participate in the city basketball tournament?”
The referee nodded, “That’s correct, the Crown Team is indeed preparing to participate in the city basketball tournament.
The school will select the best players overall to form a new team for the city basketball tournament.”
So, they are selecting the best players to participate in the city basketball tournament.
Lin Fei said, “Teacher, if I am selected by the school, I will certainly do my best to achieve the best results for Huadu University.”
The reason he agreed and was willing to participate in the city basketball tournament was because this time, it wasn’t just him going, but a team composed of the strongest players from the entire school attending the tournament.
He couldn’t turtle himself.
Moreover, he hadn’t immediately agreed to the tennis referee to participate in the city tennis tournament because, firstly, he wanted to give Xiao Ling a chance to shine, and secondly, he was more interested in basketball than tennis, so he was more willing to participate in basketball.
“Okay, I’ll inform you when the time comes.” The referee said happily.
“Yes, sir.” Lin Fei replied.
Then, the referee left the gymnasium.
And Peng Xiaotian, feeling ashamed, also left with the dejected players of the Wind and Cloud Team.
The thousands of fans in the stands were all fervently chanting, “Lin Fei!
Lin Fei!”
“Flying Team!
Flying Team!”
“Victory!
Victory!”
Just as the cheers reached a peak, Xu Wei saw that the moment had come.
He immediately walked to a spacious area, raised his right hand, placed it on his forehead as a visor, stretched his head forward, and imitated the Monkey King, Sun Wukong.
First, in front, then turned around to the back, then to the left and right, doing the actions of Great Sage Sun searching for monsters and paths.
Then, all the fans who were loudly shouting Lin Fei’s name suddenly quieted down, with everyone looking at Xu Wei with curious eyes.
“Hey, look!”
“Isn’t that Xu Wei from the Flying Team?
What’s he doing?”
“Hehe, those actions, is he playing the role of Sun Wukong?”
All the spectators began to discuss and laugh.
On the court, Xu Wei still had his right hand on his forehead, continuing to mimic Sun Wukong’s actions.
While doing these actions, he felt a bit guilty towards Lin Fei: Sorry, Lin Fei, I stole your classic move!
However, just as he felt he was attracting everyone’s attention and becoming the focus, he suddenly found the scene a bit off.
Why was the audience bursting into laughter?
He couldn’t help but perk up his ears to listen closely, only to hear the audience laughing and saying, “This is killing me; this Xu Wei is such a goof!”
“Even if Lin Fei won, there’s no need to act like Sun Wukong, right?”
“Maybe since the Flying Team won against the Wind and Cloud Team, Xu Wei was too thrilled and did something so goofy.”
Hearing this, Xu Wei almost spat out blood; how did playing Sun Wukong become goofy?
Lin Fei had said this move was classic and nostalgic and would attract everyone’s attention, didn’t he?
He immediately looked at Lin Fei, and then almost spat out blood again; where was Lin Fei doing the Sun Wukong action?
Lin Fei was just standing there naturally, hands behind his back, calm and composed, yet exuding an air of authority.
All the spectators were praising Lin Fei: “Lin Fei is humble in victory, calm and composed; this is the true champion.”
“Single-handedly winning three quarters against the Wind and Cloud Team, how impressive!”
“Xu Wei is far inferior to Lin Fei; look how calm Lin Fei is after winning.”
Hearing this, Xu Wei again felt like vomiting blood.
He went to Lin Fei’s side and whispered, “Lin Fei, didn’t we agree to do the Sun Wukong move after the victory?”
“Ahem, an adult should act like an adult; how can I do such a childish action?” Lin Fei lightly coughed, seemingly having completely forgotten about telling Xu Wei to do the Sun Wukong move.
“…” Xu Wei immediately understood, “Lin Fei, you set me up!”
Lin Fei couldn’t help but laugh, “Xu Wei, you finally realized I tricked you!
But the action you just did, you really looked like a goofball, hahaha…”
Indeed, Lin Fei had earlier said they would do the classic Sun Wukong move as a way to fool Xu Wei.
Unexpectedly, Xu Wei really did the action in front of the entire audience.
“Lin Fei, you’re too much!” Xu Wei wished he could throw Lin Fei into the sky, but he knew he wasn’t a match for Lin Fei.
Moreover, Lin Fei had just won against the Wind and Cloud Team and was the hero of the Flying Team; how could he be rude to Lin Fei?
So Xu Wei cursed Lin Fei verbally but didn’t really blame him; after all, making the audience laugh was a win-win.
“Here!
I played a trick on you; the trophy and the prize money, consider them my apology to you, okay?” Lin Fei placed the trophy and the envelope containing the prize money in Xu Wei’s hands.
Xu Wei was taken aback and said, “But, Lin Fei, this is your prize money and trophy.”
Lin Fei was puzzled, “My prize money and trophy?”
Xu Wei nodded, “Exactly, Lin Fei, you single-handedly won three quarters against the Wind and Cloud Team, leaving them with no chance to fight back.
This prize money and trophy rightfully belong to you.”
Lin Fei shook his head, “No, it’s not mine; the entire Flying Team won the three quarters against the Wind and Cloud Team.
Although I attacked, you all defended our ground, so we won against the Wind and Cloud Team together; this prize money and trophy belong to all of us.”
Xu Wei and the other members of the Flying Team felt a warm current flowing through their hearts as they listened to Lin Fei’s words, knowing full well that this victory over the Wind and Cloud Team was all thanks to Lin Fei.
But Lin Fei attributed this success to everyone.
