Chapter 39 Contest
"That's some real strength."
Zhao Long exclaimed in surprise as he watched Li Laoshi press down on his wrist.
Others watched from the sidelines, their eyes filled with longing and even envy.
By this time, Li Laoshi had already competed in strength with everyone in the hunting teams present.
The solution is arm wrestling.
But no one could beat him, not even Zhao Long, who was recognized as the strongest besides Chen Hao.
It should be noted that Li Laoshi is only about 1.7 meters tall, while Zhao Long is 1.9 meters tall; the two are not in the same league at all.
Zhao Long should have won easily, but even with all his strength, he couldn't suppress Li Laoshi in the slightest.
"Is this the effect of that enhancement card? It's indeed powerful."
I want to get one too.
"Who wouldn't want one? The problem is, it's a matter of luck."
"I don't know when I'll have such good luck."
"It's simple, just kill more wild beasts. The more you kill, the more likely you are to get the loot."
"You have a point."
After discussing it, everyone agreed that they should kill more wild beasts in the future, hoping to get a [Strengthening Card].
"Brother Chen, we've rested enough. When are we heading out hunting?"
Zhou Wu approached Chen Hao somewhat urgently and asked.
Chen Hao glanced at him and said calmly, "Wait a little longer."
"What are you waiting for...?"
Before he could finish speaking, he saw Chen Hao's cold gaze, felt a chill in his heart, swallowed hard, and quickly stopped talking, not daring to say anything more.
Seeing this, Zhou Wen quickly stepped forward and pulled Zhou Wu away, then apologized to Chen Hao, "I'm sorry, Brother Chen, that's just how my brother is, he's impatient, please don't take it to heart."
"It's okay," Chen Hao smiled, "but I don't want to see a next time."
"Understood, understood."
Zhou Wen nodded quickly.
A short while later, Chen Hao gathered the hunting team members again.
"Wait a minute, let's go to the river to get some water. There's not much water left in the waterwheel."
"Before I leave, there is something else I want to announce."
"I have a few blue equipment cards and a skill card here. Whoever performs well during this water transport will get these cards."
As he spoke, Chen Hao took out a card containing items such as "Refined Steel Longsword" and "Deadly Shot" and showed it to everyone.
This immediately made the already eager crowd even more excited.
"Li Laoshi".
"exist."
"I reckon only you can use this Green Python Bow. I'll lend it to you for now."
"You must prove with your actions that you deserve to possess this bow, do you understand what that means?"
Chen Hao held up the Green Python Bow and handed it to Li Laoshi.
Li Laoshi excitedly took the bow and immediately said loudly, "Understood, I will definitely use this bow to shoot down more wild beasts."
"Good that you understand."
Chen Hao nodded.
"Go and inform Sun Yulin, Shen Mo, and Jiang Meiya to come see me."
Chen Hao said to Qin Feng.
"Okay, Brother Chen."
Qin Feng left in a hurry, and soon the three of them arrived in front of Chen Hao.
Of the three, Sun Yulin and Jiang Meiya need no introduction, while Shen Mo was recruited by Chen Hao.
When Chen Hao saw that he had led the team out but only brought back two small snakes and a bag of wild fruit, he took the initiative to find him.
"You lead your team, follow behind ours, and help us transport the carcasses of wild animals. I'll give you one-tenth of the reward, how about it?"
"sounds good."
Shen Mo was somewhat intrigued. "Why are you looking for us?"
"I believe many teams would not refuse such conditions."
"It's simple, I just find you more pleasing to the eye."
"I'm not gay."
Chen Hao's face immediately darkened.
"Just kidding," Shen Mo quickly replied with a smile, "Okay, I agree."
Shen Mo took the initiative to extend his hand, and the two shook hands.
"Thank you, Brother Chen."
"It's a mutually beneficial thing, no need to thank me."
Chen Hao waved his hand, "I'll have someone notify you when I'm ready to leave."
And so, this scene unfolded.
"The three of you, I'm about to set off. Are you ready?"
The three of them nodded quickly.
Sun Yulin's team, including himself, consisted of ten people, all of whom were young and strong men.
They looked at Chen Hao and his men, who were fully armed, with envy in their eyes.
Because out of the ten of them, only three had proper weapons.
The three individuals are Sun Yulin, Sun Yutang, and Wang Xin.
Sun Yutang is Sun Yulin's cousin. He is tall and strong, only a few centimeters shorter than Zhao Long.
Wang Xin was a slender young man who carried a long spear. He exuded a heroic aura and was clearly no ordinary person.
"This person is quite something, isn't he?"
Chen Hao pointed at Wang Xin and asked.
"Did Mr. Chen notice?"
Sun Yulin looked at Chen Hao with some surprise.
Chen Hao nodded: "Intuition."
"That's right. This guy practiced level eight spear techniques since he was a child, but after he grew up, he realized that martial arts were useless, so he came out to find a job."
Sun Yulin explained.
"I see. No wonder he seemed so sharp and energetic, with more spirit than the others."
Chen Hao nodded in realization.
When Chen Hao looked at Wang Xin, the other person also looked at Chen Hao.
With just one glance, his pupils contracted slightly.
"So strong."
His intuition told him that he wouldn't last three moves against his opponent.
"No wonder Mr. Sun asked this man to escort us."
Sun Yutang, who was standing next to him, seemed more interested in Zhang Long.
When the two teams met up, Sun Yutang approached Zhang Long and asked, "My name is Sun Yutang, what's your name, brother?"
"Zhao Long".
Zhao Long became interested in the burly man who was about the same height as him.
The two shook hands and competed in strength.
In the end, Sun Yutang came out on top.
"Haha, sorry for the inconvenience."
"It's nothing," Zhao Long said, taking it in stride, but others might not feel the same way.
"Brother Zhao Long is only ranked third in our team. You'll only be considered truly impressive if you can beat Li Laoshi."
Liu Yun provoked her.
"Oh, who is Li Laoshi?"
Sun Yutang became interested.
Then, Li Laoshi was pulled over by Liu Yun.
"Is it him?"
Looking at Li Laoshi, who was a head shorter than him, Sun Yutang showed disdain.
"Hmph, you'll see how powerful I am once I beat you."
Liu Yun said with great confidence.
Others couldn't help but gather around to watch the spectacle.
Chen Hao's group all looked on with amusement, showing no concern whatsoever.
Sun Yulin's men, like Sun Yutang, underestimated their opponent.
Soon, two hands, one big and one small, one white and one black, clasped together.
At first, Sun Yutang was thinking of holding back some strength, afraid that the other party might hurt him.
Unexpectedly, a tremendous force came from that dark, thin hand, causing Sun Yutang's expression to change instantly.
He dared not hold back any longer, and in the end he used almost every ounce of his strength.
But in the end, he still lost, clutching his right hand and looking at Li Laoshi in disbelief.
How come you're so strong?
Upon hearing this, Chen Hao's men burst into laughter.
But no one told the truth.
After this incident, the atmosphere between the two sides actually became much more harmonious.
"Please excuse my poor performance, Mr. Chen."
Chen Hao and Sun Yulin stood side by side, watching this scene.
"It's nothing, just some playful banter."
Chen Hao didn't pay any attention.
Then, the two teams set off together, surrounding the waterwheel in the middle.
It's worth mentioning that the fish in the waterwheel have already been scooped out and grilled.
They all ended up in Chen Hao and the others' stomachs, which they considered lunch.
"Where are your water buckets?"
Chen Hao noticed that Sun Yulin and his group hadn't brought any buckets or other containers, and couldn't help but ask them curiously.
Sun Yulin pulled out a blue card, looking slightly embarrassed.
Chen Hao took it and looked at it. Good heavens, it was also a waterwheel card.
"I see."
Chen Hao suddenly realized.
