Chapter 58: Don’t Hesitate, Just Do It!
"What’s going on now?"
"It seems that the Evil Monk has made a deal with the monster and decided to have a peaceful and loving basketball game!"
"What an incredibly surreal scene!"
Long Aotian and Mugang Xian looked at each other, seeing disbelief and confusion in each other’s eyes.
"Disciples, come here, let me introduce you. These four are the alien little monsters I told you about before we left, and they are your battle targets today."
Bai Qige turned to the Bloodthirsty Dragon Camel and said, "These five are my disciples, the main players of the Xiangbei Basketball Club under Lanruo Temple, known in the world as the Canglan Five Beasts. Once they pick up a basketball, they can defeat anyone, making them masters in the art of basketball. They will team up with you four for a Rebellious Showdown, okay?"
The leader, a Bloodthirsty Dragon Camel, looked them over, and its pupils suddenly changed shape. A fierce light burst forth, covering both its pupils and the whites of its eyes, shining brightly as if a radiant sun had gathered within. Then, a mysterious and deep authority gradually emerged from the Bloodthirsty Dragon Camel, and its voice changed to a strange, layered tone, as if another presence had come upon it, speaking through its mouth.
"The rules are confirmed for the Rebellious Showdown. The current rules are simple. New rules are as follows: You must hold a basketball to play Kung Fu Basketball. If you let go of the ball, you lose. If you cannot move or say you give up, you also lose. The total time of the match is forty minutes. Hitting the face scores three points, hitting the chest scores two points, and hitting other parts scores one point. Hitting the basketball does not count as a score. If both sides can still move after the match ends, the winner will be decided by the score!"
Seeing this, Bai Qige shrugged it off, "Haha, the Eternal Dark Demon Emperor is truly known as the absolute fair tyrant. Even after ten thousand years, the will to seek absolute fairness remains unbroken. Well, these rules are quite complete, and I have no objections, and neither does my disciple! So let’s get started; I guess it won’t be long before someone stirs things up!"
After spotting Bai Qige’s weakness, the leader, Bloodthirsty Dragon Camel, no longer showed any unusual signs. Then Bai Qige took out four basketballs and tossed them to the Bloodthirsty Dragon Camels. They held the basketballs in their furry hands, eagerly trying to get used to the feel of the ball.
The five of Long Aotian felt very awkward. Now, all five of them held basketballs while facing four alien creatures that stood about three or four meters tall, resembling bears in size and stature, who also held basketballs. They prepared for a friendly Kung Fu Basketball match.
To be honest, they had no idea how things escalated to this point. Was there even any logic in this? There should be a limit to outrageous developments!
Though confused and feeling it was absurd, the authority of the Evil Monk was undeniable. In the end, the Canglan Five Beasts group stood obediently in front of the four Bloodthirsty Dragon Camels.
"You all study under this monster just to practice this ridiculous Kung Fu Basketball? Don’t you think that’s rather silly?"
The leader of the Bloodthirsty Dragon Camels looked at the Canglan Five Beasts with a hint of pity, making them feel an overwhelming sadness. They were actually being pitied by alien creatures, and worse, they found themselves speechless! Because they also thought it was quite foolish.
"Disciples, play well and show the basketball skills I have taught you! Don’t embarrass the people of Earth! By the way, if you lose, it’s alright. It just means your skills aren’t fully developed yet. I will transform back into Coach RIP to give you a new stage of training! Amitabha!"
Why am I here? Why am I holding a basketball? Why am I listening to Evil Monk and facing off against the alien monsters in Kung Fu Basketball? All these questions became unimportant when Bai Qige, with a hint of "compassion" in his smile, issued the final ultimatum.
The fighting spirit of Mugang Xian, Shan Jingshou, Mugong Yan, and Gongcheng Liang exploded in an instant! Their eyes sparkled with fiery passion to win.
As long as there is a small chance, they do not want to go back to the days of training basketball under Coach RIP, because they do not have the confidence to survive it again!
Carrying two basketballs, they charged straight into a drug deal between two gangs, facing a hail of bullets to smash the enemies with basketballs; this kind of basketball training is already a once-in-a-lifetime experience that is seriously excessive.
Long Aotian looked at his teammates whose expressions suddenly changed, and seeing the strong fighting spirit in their eyes, he felt he couldn’t lose either, and began to feel a surge of fighting spirit.
A small pebble was flicked high into the air from Bai Qige’s hand. When it landed, the four Bloodthirsty Dragon Camels and the Canglan Five Beasts shouted in anger, ready to smash each other on the head with basketballs, and in an instant, it turned into a fierce battle.
"Master, what is going on? Why do these monsters listen to you, and what is this Kung Fu Basketball match against Aotian about?"
Ye Hui and Tang Jiaorong, witnessing this scene, were also puzzled. Ye Hui couldn’t help but ask, while Bai Qige stroked his long beard and said, "Haha, the reason behind this, allow me to explain later. This match is significant; I have one thing to ask of you. Soon, the police and military will arrive, and I hope you can persuade them to wait for a while, to give us a fair chance to battle!"
Bai Qige specifically asked Long Aotian to call Ye Hui out for a purpose, and now it proved useful. Ye Hui’s expression changed several times, clearly hesitating.
"You can call your leader and explain the situation here. Be direct and say that you have discovered groups of highly intelligent alien creatures with various superpowers, along with advanced Earth weaponry, invading our planet. Thanks to your efforts, there have been no casualties for now. You can capture these creatures alive, but you need support from higher authorities!"
Ye Hui heard this and decisively began to make a call. After a brief conversation, she put down her phone, looked at Bai Qige, and said, "Master, you are a wise teacher and also a mentor to Long Aotian. I trust you completely. I have gained you the time you needed; please provide me a brief explanation shortly. Also, my leader is very interested in what you are doing! If possible, we may need to have a meeting later to discuss some matters."
Bai Qige knew that these words were said to show respect for Long Aotian and Principal Li. If it were someone else, they would likely have to honestly answer to the urgent demands.
But these issues were just small matters. The Meteorological Bureau’s influence and execution were remarkable. Since the nearby residents reported the situation, once the military and police arrived, they had likely already received notification from the Meteorological Bureau. Armed soldiers were just surrounding the area, keeping watch and dispersing the crowd while ignoring the five people and four monsters fighting with basketballs, effectively giving Long Aotian and others space and time.
