School Beauty's Invincible Martial Expert-Chapter 592 - 594: The Finals

"This..." Xiao Han paused, then said, "What if I can’t get it?"

"If you can’t get it, I won’t blame you," Chen Aiguo shook his head and said, "But you should at least aim for the top three, right?"

"Top three shouldn’t be a big problem, but the championship might be a bit of a pressure," Xiao Han chuckled.

"Yes," Chen Aiguo nodded and said, "Li Changjun is a dark horse in sprinting. Ever since he burst onto the scene the year before last, he has now become a hot figure in the sprinting realm."

Chen Aiguo thought to himself that if Xiao Han could defeat Li Changjun this time, then Xiao Han would definitely replace Li Changjun as the new dark horse of the sprinting world.

Chen Aiguo had an ambition in his heart, which was to let Xiao Han defeat Li Changjun. By doing so, Shuimu University could immediately crush Fudan University, take a proud breath and alleviate the suffering from being overshadowed over the years. That was the purpose of Chen Aiguo seeking out Xiao Han today.

If Xiao Han could defeat Li Changjun, how wonderful that would be.

At least, that was what Chen Aiguo thought in his heart.

Now, Chen Aiguo had placed all his urgent and eager dreams onto Xiao Han.

"So what?" Xiao Han disdainfully replied, "In my view, he’s nothing special. This time, I’ve already made a bet with him."

"Oh?" Chen Aiguo was taken aback and asked, "Bet what?"

"Bet a hundred thousand yuan and my number plate," Xiao Han said with a slight smile.

"Good lord!" Chen Aiguo was astounded, "He actually bet his number plate with you?"

"Why not?" Xiao Han chuckled.

"Crazy, just crazy," Chen Aiguo said with a look of surprise.

Indeed, no one would believe this was true. If these words hadn’t come from Xiao Han’s mouth, perhaps Chen Aiguo wouldn’t have dared to believe it. Who is Li Changjun? He is a high-potential sports student from Fudan University, destined to join the national sprinting team, and to become the successor of Shi Dongpeng. Shi Dongpeng is currently the fastest runner in the Chinese national sprinting team. And Li Changjun’s speed has been improving and, with the arrival of his golden age, his speed is undoubtedly set to enhance further.

Yet, how could such a person wager his number plate with a stranger? If he carelessly lost, that would be an immeasurable blow to himself. Furthermore, betting his number plate with Xiao Han is practically lowering his own stature and status. Li Changjun is the king of sprinting among university students – a supreme honor. How could someone so esteemed stoop to bet his number plate with a newcomer?

A cold smirk lifted the corners of Xiao Han’s mouth, and then he said, "Principal Chen, aren’t you belittling Shuimu University with those words?"

"That’s not what I meant!" Chen Aiguo shook his head.

"Then what do you mean?" Xiao Han asked, looking puzzled at Chen Aiguo.

Chen Aiguo chuckled and then said, "Well, I get your point now."

"Huh?" Xiao Han, seeing Chen Aiguo’s baffling smile, was obviously a bit at a loss and asked in confusion, "What... what do you mean by that?"

"It means nothing!" Chen Aiguo shook his head and said, "Anyway, I have high hopes for you."

"Really baffling!" Xiao Han was somewhat puzzled.

"Right, if you lose to Li Changjun this time, but manage to get the silver or bronze, the school will cover the hundred thousand yuan you lost," Chen Aiguo chuckled and said, "So, make sure you don’t feel any psychological pressure, understand?"

"Yeah," Xiao Han nodded, then smiled and said, "With these words from you, I can run without holding back."

"Hahaha..." Chen Aiguo burst into laughter.

Xiao Han’s declaration during the 100-meter race had become the topic of discussion among various schools and social circles. He actually claimed that he would take the 100-meter championship. This audacity alone was enough to show how bold he was.

In Linjiang City.

In the office of Principal Li Hengzhong at Linjiang No.1 Middle School.

Both Linjiang TV Station and the provincial city’s TV Station were broadcasting the National Collegiate Athletic Meet live. The moment Li Hengzhong saw Xiao Han raise his fist and shout his inner pledge in front of the TV camera, he revealed a smile.

"This kid!" Li Hengzhong chuckled.

Liu Jinmei hurried in and exclaimed, "Principal, did you see it?"

"I saw it!" Li Hengzhong nodded.

"Oh my, Xiao Han actually went to the National Collegiate Athletic Meet," Liu Jinmei couldn’t help shaking her head in surprise.

"What’s so strange about that," Li Hengzhong chuckled and said, "Have you forgotten how that sports teacher Chen wanted to snatch Xiao Han from you?"

"Right, right, right!" Liu Jinmei immediately nodded and said, "Of course, I remember. But Xiao Han chose the academic path in the end."

"That doesn’t mean it can bury Xiao Han’s athletic talent," Li Hengzhong smiled slightly.

Liu Jinmei paused for a moment and said, "I wasn’t talking about that; I mean, Xiao Han is up to his big moves again."

"Hmm!" Li Hengzhong watched the TV with interest and said, "He has just stood out from the 100 meters semi-finals; he’s now heading into the finals."

"Can he beat Li Changjun?" Liu Jinmei frowned.

```

"It’s not so easy to say," Li Hengzhong shook his head and gave a wry smile. "After all, Li Changjun is the fastest runner among the university students. He’s also the Sprint King of Fudan University. Xiao Han is not bad, but defeating him seems impossible."

"Then wouldn’t that be incredibly embarrassing?" Liu Jinmei said uncomfortably, "The TV has been discussing Xiao Han’s identity and background. I guess people already know he’s a student from Linjiang No.1 Middle School in our Linjiang City. If Xiao Han lost the match, wouldn’t our Linjiang No.1 Middle School be thrust into the spotlight?"

"So what?" Li Hengzhong shook his head and smiled, "Some things are not smooth sailing. Letting Xiao Han experience setbacks could be good. Have you forgotten the two lines of large characters at the entrance of our school?"

"Today, the school takes pride in me; tomorrow, I bring honor to the school," asked Liu Jinmei.

"That’s right!" Li Hengzhong nodded and said, "Xiao Han has successfully made it to the finals and has already fought for honor for our school. If Xiao Han really wins the championship, then we can invite the TV station to do a special feature on it. We could reheat the old news, and then expose a bit of Xiao Han’s athletic talent. With this, the school’s reputation will increase."

"But what if Xiao Han loses?" Liu Jinmei countered.

"Even if Xiao Han fails, there will be no problem," Li Hengzhong said with a slight smile, then added, "because Xiao Han has made it to the finals."

"Ah, you’re right!" Liu Jinmei nodded.

Being able to make it to the finals of the national university athletics competition was already a commendable achievement. Moreover, Xiao Han was not a sports major, which made it even more impressive.

Liu Jinmei chuckled and said, "Xiao Han isn’t a sports major student. If the media found out, they would probably make a big deal out of it, wouldn’t they?"

"Of course!" Li Hengzhong nodded.

Liu Jinmei’s lips curled into a smile, filled with joy.

...

The next morning.

The athletics competition entered its second day, and the first event of the morning was the 100-meter finals. This 100-meter final was definitely the most attractive event. If it was any other event, the venue might not have attracted so many people. However, because today featured the 100-meter race, countless spectators turned up.

The stadium, with a capacity of ten thousand, was completely full.

"Today we’ll see what kind of results that cocky kid can run!"

"Yeah, I’m really looking forward to it."

"I’m not hoping for him; I’m wondering if Li Changjun can break his own record."

A bunch of people were fervently discussing in the stands.

The second day of the athletics competition.

Xiao Han was ready. He had rested well last night, just waiting for today’s competition. Li Changjun also appeared at the 100-meter starting line in a very calm state, ready to register.

In the front row, Father Liu, accompanied by Liu Yiyi, was still in that spot, the best in the stands. Liu Yiyi was fully equipped, wearing a 3M mask and a thin isolation gown that could largely block airborne bacteria. Without such precautions, Liu Yiyi could easily be overwhelmed by the bacteria in the air. She lacked sufficient immunity and was susceptible to infections.

Xiao Han’s lips curled into a smile when he saw Liu Yiyi, and he waved to her.

"Xiao Han!" Liu Yiyi shouted.

"Yiyi," Xiao Han responded.

They called out to each other across the space.

Many people in the venue saw this scene.

"Wow, that girl looks very pretty."

"She sure does."

"Even with a mask, judging from her eyes and figure, she’s absolutely a stunning beauty."

Many spectators murmured among themselves.

"Xiao Han, come on, for the championship!" Liu Yiyi yelled.

"I will definitely succeed." Xiao Han raised his right hand, which was both a salutation and a vow.

"I believe you definitely can!" Liu Yiyi shouted.

Xiao Han chuckled, the corners of his mouth lifting into a smile.

Li Changjun came over and said, "Your girlfriend’s pretty nice."

"Do I need you to tell me that?" Xiao Han retorted.

"Wow, so she really is your girlfriend?" Li Changjun was surprised as he looked at Xiao Han.

In fact, Li Changjun had taken a liking to Liu Yiyi at first glance. His deliberate inquiry was to probe Xiao Han, to see if Liu Yiyi had a boyfriend. But he didn’t expect that Liu Yiyi’s boyfriend would be Xiao Han, which left Li Changjun feeling somewhat disappointed.

"Of course!" Xiao Han nodded, "How about it, isn’t she beautiful?"
