80: Chapter 80 Marathon Running 80: Chapter 80 Marathon Running Su Yamo, the male officer, the bald teacher, Roy, Wang Xuesong, and countless other classmates all looked at Ma Jun.
Except for the male officer, everyone believed that if Ma Jun suddenly stood up at this moment, he was on the brink of death.
That was what they called a “final radiance before sunset.”
Su Yamo eagerly expected Wang Yan to make some mistake, so he could take Wang Yan back to the police station and settle both old and new scores.
Wang Xuesong even more hoped something would happen to Ma Jun because he couldn’t allow Roy, the one he admired, to look at Ma Jun with anticipation again.
The rest of the classmates also hoped for something to happen to Ma Jun, as this would prove to the two police officers that they hadn’t been lying.
Only Wang Yan stood there with a calm expression, a slight smile of relief already forming on his face.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Ma Jun jumped into the air, landed steadily on the ground with his feet, and stood firm.
Then Ma Jun opened his mouth and shouted to the sky, “Ah——”
The shout was so powerful that everyone’s eardrums felt a “buzz,” suddenly filling their heads with a blank noise.
Only Wang Yan’s smile deepened, spreading across his entire face into a joyous grin.
When the shouting stopped, Ma Jun stood firmly in place, his eyes bright and full of spirit.
Even though he still wore thick glasses, his eyes shone brightly, and his entire body exuded limitless vitality.
“Boss——” Ma Jun looked at Wang Yan and exclaimed excitedly.
Seeing Ma Jun so full of energy, without a trace of impending death, left the bald teacher and others stunned, exchanging glances.
They had clearly seen Ma Jun foaming at the mouth, pale, and on the verge of death just moments ago.
How did he suddenly “come back to life” in the blink of an eye?
The bald teacher and others didn’t understand why this happened, and Wang Xuesong was even more bewildered.
Only Roy’s eyes showed a different expression when looking at Ma Jun.
Roy loved sports and especially admired those with a never-give-up spirit, so his eyes were filled with admiration for Ma Jun.
Upon seeing Roy’s gaze, Wang Xuesong clenched his teeth in frustration, his eyes darkening as he looked at Ma Jun, and even more at Wang Yan.
At this point, how could he not understand that Ma Jun’s transformation was entirely orchestrated by Wang Yan?
As long as he defeated Wang Yan, Ma Jun would become nothing.
The same thought occurred to the five martial arts teachers.
Earlier, in front of all the classmates, they had been toyed with by Wang Yan, losing face entirely.
How could they establish authority among the classmates in the future?
By this time, Ma Jun had already rushed to Wang Yan and said excitedly, “Boss, I feel like I’ve been reborn, but…”
He didn’t say the rest, but both he and Wang Yan understood that Ma Jun hadn’t yet unleashed the Demon Pattern.
With a slight smile, Wang Yan said, “Success doesn’t come that easy.
Tomorrow we’ll continue, thirty thousand meters.”
Today Ma Jun ran fifteen thousand meters, and tomorrow thirty thousand meters would be double that, but Ma Jun showed no hesitation, nodding vigorously.
Seeing Ma Jun’s fearless spirit, admiration appeared on Roy’s face.
Wang Xuesong had been watching Roy carefully, and seeing Roy’s gaze towards Ma Jun growing softer, jealousy surged in his mind.
At this point, Wang Yan said to Ma Jun, “Today, there’s a second challenge.”
Hearing there was another challenge, Ma Jun showed a look of determination and quickly said, “Alright, boss, what’s the second challenge?”
Wang Yan smiled and said, “Express your feelings to the person you like.”
Hearing this, Ma Jun’s expression changed, his eagerness turning immediately to hesitation, standing there at a loss and looking helplessly at Wang Yan.
Wang Yan gave a slight smile and said, “This is a test of courage.
Ma Jun’s face turned red, hesitating repeatedly, and then he gritted his teeth, turned around, walked straight towards Roy, and said four words, “I like you!”
After saying this, Ma Jun’s face was as red as an apple, and he immediately turned and left as if fleeing.
When Ma Jun confessed to her, Roy was instantly a bit surprised, especially in front of so many people.
Her face, as white as jade, was immediately tinged with a faint red, and she shyly lowered her head.
However, this scene completely enraged Wang Xuesong.
Wang Xuesong suddenly jumped out and shouted at Ma Jun, “I challenge you!
I want to race you in a marathon.”
When everyone heard that Wang Xuesong was going to race Ma Jun in a marathon, they exclaimed because they all knew Wang Xuesong was a professional marathon runner, who even won third place nationwide.
But at this moment, after confessing to Roy, Ma Jun’s heart was beating wildly, and he was completely dazed, not hearing a word Wang Xuesong said.
Roy quickly pulled Wang Xuesong and said, “He just finished running 10,000 meters, let it go.”
If Roy hadn’t explained for Ma Jun, it would have been fine, but upon hearing this explanation, Wang Xuesong immediately became ignited, shouting to Ma Jun and Wang Yan, “Either of you can accept the challenge.
If you lose, I will give Roy to you, if you lose, you will lick my shoes!”
Upon hearing Wang Xuesong’s rude words, Wang Yan said calmly, “You’re not qualified.”
Wang Xuesong laughed loudly upon hearing this and said, “I’m not qualified?
There aren’t many in Wanghai City who can say that.
Do you know who I am?”
Wang Yan shook his head indifferently and said, “Not interested.” Then he turned to Ma Jun and said, “It’s getting late, we should head to the Library Pavilion.”
Wang Xuesong immediately blocked Wang Yan’s path and said, “I have to tell you, I was the national marathon cross country race third place winner and the first place holder of the Wanghai City cross country race.
Now do you know if I’m qualified?”
Wang Xuesong said this proudly looking at Wang Yan.
Yet, Wang Yan remained calm, saying indifferently, “What does that have to do with me?”
Seeing himself being ignored , Wang Xuesong grew angry from embarrassment, but then he sneered, “You say you have no interest, so why don’t you leave?
What’s the meaning of standing here?”
Wang Yan replied with a hint of irritation, “I wish to leave, but my hand is being held, how could I go?”
Upon hearing this, everyone looked at Wang Yan’s hand.
Wang Yan’s right hand was still tightly held by Su Yamo, her fingers intertwined with his, palms pressed tightly together.
It turned out, Su Yamo was afraid Wang Yan would escape, so she hadn’t let go.
Ma Jun, however, didn’t understand the reason and eagerly raised his head, looking at Wang Yan, asking, “Boss, when did this happen?
Was it because of yesterday…
it wouldn’t be so quick, right?”
Seeing Ma Jun causing confusion, Wang Yan felt more helpless and turned to Su Yamo, saying, “Constable, can you let go now?”
Su Yamo, filled with righteous indignation earlier, naturally forgot about the inappropriateness of physical contact between men and women, and kept holding Wang Yan.
But now slightly calmed down, she realized it was improper to hold Wang Yan .
Moreover, the way they were holding hands seemed more like a couple than a police officer apprehending a criminal.
Under the gazing eyes of everyone, Su Yamo’s fair face turned red, then she released Wang Yan’s hand immediately. Tʜe source of this ᴄontent ɪs ɴovᴇl(F)ɪre.ɴet
Wang Yan smiled at Su Yamo, then was about to leave.
Upon seeing Wang Yan truly about to leave, Wang Xuesong shouted, “I think you’re just scared.
If you admit you’re a coward, I’ll let you go.”
Just then, Wang Yan was a few steps away when he heard Wang Xuesong’s words.
He immediately stopped, slowly turned around, his eyes cold as frost, staring at Wang Xuesong.
Seeing Wang Yan’s icy gaze, Wang Xuesong was a bit startled, but then he said dismissively, “What, are you brave enough to accept my challenge?”
Wang Yan snorted coldly, took a few steps back to Wang Xuesong, and said coldly, “How do we compete?”
Upon hearing Wang Yan accept the challenge, Wang Xuesong was thrilled.
He was a professional marathon runner, capable of running a full 42 kilometers, and without professional training, it’s impossible for anyone to run that far.
So, as long as Wang Yan dared to race him, he was sure to win.
By defeating Wang Yan, he could regain face in front of Roy.
Wang Xuesong said, “Let’s run a marathon here, 42 kilometers.”
Upon hearing Wang Xuesong’s words, everyone exclaimed, then looked at Wang Yan.
Almost everyone thought Wang Yan would not accept the challenge.
Under hundreds of watchful eyes, Wang Yan remained calm and said, “42 kilometers is too short.
We’ll run until one of us can’t run anymore, whoever stops first loses.”
