As he walked, Jiang Nan suddenly remembered the old yellow cow that had bought thirty diamond-grade spirit beads’ worth of his little ginsengs.
His face filled with indignation.
After returning to the country, he had tried calling the number that cow had given him, but it was already disconnected.
And Jones, who had provided the contact details, had long been sucked dry by Jiang Ning’s Great Suction.
The more Jiang Nan thought about it, the angrier he got. He felt he had been thoroughly ripped off.
You better hope I don’t catch you.
At this moment, in the senior student area. Fifty arenas were blazing with fierce battles, the fighting at its peak.
Many senior brothers and sisters were cheering loudly from the stands.
The supervising Guan Hu looked warily at Jiang Nan.
“What are you here for? Go away, go away. Off you go.”
Jiang Nan’s little face darkened. Why does everyone act like they despise me?
“I’m just strolling around, observing a bit.”
Guan Hu said sternly, “You’re not allowed to disturb their matches, understood?”
Jiang Nan patted his chest and promised, “Don’t worry.”
Then, with his stall cloth slung over his back, he slipped into the competition zone.
He immediately spotted a burly man beast-transformed into a rhinoceros battling a cheetah beast-transformed girl with animal ears on one arena.
One focused on defence, the other on agility.
Both were in half-beast form, evenly matched. It looked like the winner wouldn’t be decided anytime soon.
Jiang Nan’s eyes lit up. With a teleport, he was there.
Just outside the arena edge, he constructed a spatial barrier in mid-air, spread out his stall cloth, and sat on it.
He watched the match with a serious expression.
On the arena, Rhino Bro and Cheetah Sis naturally noticed Jiang Nan sitting on his stall cloth.
They were speechless. Have you finished your own matches already?
You’re here to watch?
If you’re watching, go to the stands. Don’t set up a stall right beside the arena.
We’re easily distracted like this.
Jiang Nan said, “Why don’t you two fully beast-transform? If you fully transform, you could easily overpower the other.”
Cheetah Sis’s cheeks flushed. She glared hard at Jiang Nan. “Mind your own business?”
Fully transform? Wouldn’t everyone see everything? No way.
Jiang Nan looked incredulous. “No way? What era are we in? You two haven’t bought my Hulk-brand shorts yet?”
Then, with a pained expression, “It’s my failure. There are still beast-transformers at Pioneer Academy who haven’t worn the shorts I sell.”
With a wave of his little hand.
On the stall cloth, all kinds of Hulk-brand shorts were neatly arranged.
He picked up one pair with his two middle fingers.
“Little Dimple.”
“Yes, Master~”
Little Dimple opened her mouth, grabbed the other end of the shorts, stretched them back five or six metres, then snapped them back to original shape.
“Extreme elasticity, top quality.”
“Fully transform and go wild.”
“Only wear Hulk-brand shorts.”
“Wear them and victory comes naturally.”
“Senior brothers and sisters. Want a pair? Special discount for you.”
At this moment, Rhino Bro and Cheetah Sis were going mad.
We’re in the middle of a match. Why are you trying to sell us shorts on the side.
Do those advertising lines just roll off your tongue?
[Resentment value from Lin Xi +666!]
[Resentment value from Zhou Jing +1000!]
Supervisor Guan Hu’s face darkened. Didn’t you promise not to disturb the matches?
And you go set up beside the arena selling shorts?
[Resentment value from Guan Hu +1000!]
The two on the arena had no time to deal with Jiang Nan. Cheetah Sis exploded furiously, beating Rhino Bro until he spat blood.
Jiang Nan got anxious. “Brother. What are you waiting for? You’re just one pair of shorts away from victory.”
Lin Xi’s eyes were bloodshot. If he fully transformed, he definitely had a chance to turn things around.
If he didn’t change now, he’d really lose.
“Here. Give me one.”
Jiang Nan said excitedly, “Coming right up. What style do you want? We’ve got Angry Birds, Pikachu, Little Dragon…”
“Boxers or briefs? We…”
Lin Xi: !!!
“Boxers. Anything.”
Bloody Pikachu.
Jiang Nan: “Won’t you try briefs? Actually, briefs might wrap better than boxers…”
Lin Xi: Pwah Σ(ŎεŎ|||)
Another mouthful of blood sprayed out.
[Resentment value from Lin Xi +1000!]
“Just give me the damn shorts.”
I’m in a match. Where do I have time to choose styles?
Jiang Nan casually picked a pair and smiled brightly. “100,000 each. Cash or transfer?”
Lin Xi exploded. “Hurry up and give them to me. I’ll transfer after the match.”
Jiang Nan shook his head. “No can do. What if you don’t pay? Shorts aren’t like other things. If you wear them and return them, how can I sell them to someone else?”
[Resentment value from Lin Xi +1000!]
I’m about to get KO’d. Where do I have time to transfer?
You’re really not giving me any chance?
“If I don’t transfer after the match, you can bloody grind beads with my rhino horn.”
Jiang Nan hesitated for ages, then gritted his teeth and agreed.
Beads ground from rhino horn should be pretty valuable, right?
A spatial wormhole shoved the Hulk-brand shorts into Lin Xi’s arms.
This brother didn’t care anymore. He held the shorts open, jumped high, threaded both legs through the holes, and pulled them up.
“Snap~”
Like Superman, he wore the shorts on the outside.
A great roar: “Full beast transformation.”
In an instant, a twenty-five-metre giant rhinoceros appeared on the arena.
It charged wildly at Cheetah Sis, goring her with its horn until she spat blood repeatedly.
The situation instantly reversed. Cheetah Sis was in dire straits.
[Resentment value from Zhou Jing +1000!]
[From…]
Aaaah. I was about to win.
Why did you sell him shorts? Under these circumstances, she had no choice but to fully transform and go head-to-head with Lin Xi.
“Sell me one too. Quick. I’m running out of time.”
Jiang Nan smiled brightly. “300,000. Cash or transfer?”
Cheetah Sis fumed. “Wasn’t it 100,000? Why the price hike? You black-hearted merchant.”
Jiang Nan looked innocent. “You’re wronging me. For girls, it’s sold as a set. There’s a little crop top too.”
“All personally sewn by me from shorts fabric. 300,000 isn’t expensive. If you only want one piece, I don’t mind.”
Cheetah Sis: (งᵒ̌皿ᵒ̌)ง
“300,000 it is. Hurry.”
Jiang Nan smiled. “What style do you want? For girls…”
Cheetah Sis said urgently, “500,000. Stop talking. I’ll transfer after the match. Otherwise, a thousand li to Jiangling.”
Jiang Nan was confused. “What the hell is a thousand li to Jiangling?”
Guan Hu said with a dark face, “A thousand li to Jiangling in one day.”
Jiang Nan: (*ﾟﾛﾟ)!!
This… this is deep.
There’s even this saying?
Learned something new.
Then, with a serious expression: “Ten thousand li to Jiangling.”
[Resentment value from Zhou Jing +1000!]
Bloody ten thousand li to Jiangling.
Wouldn’t ten thousand li take ten days?
“Whatever. Hurry.”
Jiang Nan immediately pulled out a Hulk-brand set and tossed it over.
Cheetah Sis couldn’t care less now. She put on the leopard-print set right over her clothes.
A leopard roar, full beast transformation. She clawed Lin Xi’s face bloody. The situation reversed again.
Cheetah Sis took the upper hand.
Lin Xi said urgently, “South God. Got any Vigour? Give me a bottle. 100,000. Quick.”
Jiang Nan’s eyes lit up. “Young man knows his stuff. Here you go.”
Cheetah Sis said urgently, “200,000. Don’t sell to him.”
Jiang Nan sat back down.
Lin Xi said urgently, “300,000. Top me up.”
Jiang Nan said excitedly, “Open wide. Brother’s topping you with Vigour.”
Cheetah Sis fumed, “500,000. No topping.”
Jiang Nan: (ˊo̴̶̷̤ᴗo̴̶̷̤ˋ) Okay~
“600,000.”
“I’ll give 700,000. Don’t sell to him.”
At this moment, both on the arena were desperate, frantically bidding.
Lin Xi was about to drink Vigour. Cheetah Sis wouldn’t let him.
In no time, they bid up to a million.
Guan Hu was stunned. You two are fighting a match. How did it turn into an auction?
You’re outbidding each other.
How did things develop like this?
No matter who wins, Jiang Nan profits in the end.
This kid probably just wanted to make money off this opportunity.
War profiteering. That’s you.
Jiang Nan: “Brother. Don’t back down. You’re so close to beating her. One sip of Vigour. You’re a miracle. Really not raising the bid?”
Lin Xi, eyes red: “One million one hundred thousand.”
Cheetah Sis back-kicked, directly hitting Lin Xi’s chin, KO’ing him instantly.
“You bid nothing.”
Jiang Nan looked regretful but quickly went over, holding out his little hand to Cheetah Sis.
“1.5 million. As agreed.”
Cheetah Sis reverted to human form, her wheat-coloured skin gleaming in the sun.
She had won the match and was quite happy. She slung an arm around Jiang Nan’s shoulders. “Hey~ little junior. What if big sis doesn’t want to pay? Really not considering ten thousand li to Jiangling?”
Jiang Nan glared. “What? No money? Then I’ll…”
Zhou Jing rolled her eyes. “Fine, fine. Little money-grubber. Hmph~”
So unromantic. Won’t even acknowledge the ten thousand li to Jiangling I wanted.
She took her phone from the item storage nearby and transferred 1.5 million to Jiang Nan.
Jiang Nan was delighted. In such a short time, selling two sets of shorts earned him this much?
I’m just too brilliant.
His gaze involuntarily fell on the fainted Lin Xi nearby.
Zhou Jing stared at the transfer record and froze.
This isn’t right.
I was about to win anyway.
How did winning this match cost me an extra 1.5 million?
No. Why?
How did…
[Resentment value from Zhou Jing +666!]
[From Zhou Jing…]
Jiang Nan squatted down and patted Lin Xi. “Hey, hey, hey. Brother, get up. Time to pay. You still owe me for the shorts.”
But Lin Xi showed no reaction, deeply unconscious.
Jiang Nan rolled his eyes. “Little Dimple. Bring me my Blood-Drinking Great Halberd. There’s a horn here waiting to be chopped.”
Lin Xi sat bolt upright like a corpse reviving. “QR code.”
He transferred to Jiang Nan while crying.
Spent an extra 100,000. And still lost.
Why am I so unlucky.
After collecting the money, Jiang Nan contentedly packed up his stall cloth.
“Little Dimple. Let’s go, next one. We’ve got to hurry to the next venue.”
Little Dimple: (◍ōᴗō◍) Okay, Master~
