My Extraordinary Achievements 210 It's In The Bag

He had just picked up the diamond ring when the owner came downstairs.

The wallet had an ID in it too...

Of course, even if nobody came down to retrieve it, Meng Fan still had to hand the wallet over to the police, ID or no ID.

He would really be lucky if he could trigger a task that wasn't ambiguous.

But that didn't exist!

Returning the diamond ring didn't trigger any tasks, and when he handed the wallet to the police officer, nothing happened either.

Meng Fan gave up on the idea. Based on the System's values, it was difficult to trigger such a positive task. He was uncertain what other tasks his actions would trigger instead.

Thinking of this, Meng Fan sighed again. He wasn't going to venture on the edge of danger just to test the System.

Obediently, he began to jog again.

Not long after arriving on the track, Wu Tong arrived as well.

"I thought you weren't running today." Wu Tong warmed up with Meng Fan as she asked,

"Are you nervous?"

She was obviously asking about the CGL provincial finals.

Meng Fan smiled confidently. "Nope. It's in the bag; I'm 9/10 sure."

Wu Tong looked at him seriously. "Don't be overconfident and underestimate your opponents. Even if you are 9/10th sure, you might not be steady. So you have to try your best!"

Meng Fan had no competitive experience, but he knew the story of the lion wasting its strength chasing the rabbit. He couldn't afford to lose the +1 championship honor point, and winning the provincials would get him into the national finals, which would provide +2 championship honor points.

He nodded. With a righteous look, he said, "I really am missing just a kiss." *

*Wu Tong said steady (wen), which in Chinese sounds like the word kiss.

Wu Tong knew this was coming after saying the sentence, so she was more than clear as to what Meng Fan was saying. She rolled her eyes at him and began to run.

Meng Fan was numb all over from her glance. Stupidly, he smirked as he followed her onto the track.

This was venturing on the edge of danger!

How exhilarating!

Sigh. If Wu Tong followed up with a smile and an "if you catch me you can have the kiss", how good would that be...

Unfortunately for him, Wu Tong didn't utter these words their entire run.

Even if she had said so, Meng Fan couldn't catch up to her anyway.

Unless she went easy on him!

After running, the two stretched and chatted as usual. They not only discussed his provincial competition but Su Qing Cen's concert tonight too. Wu Tong was busy in the evening, as she had to fly to Beijing after watching Meng Fan compete to enter a Chinese painting exchange event. Wu Tong ended up giving away her ticket to Qu Jing Jing, so she could go with Wei Zhi Xue and the others.

Aside from these events, the two would occasionally joke and even fight and bicker, Meng Fan being the one who bickered the most. Wu Tong, of course, was responsible for the fight.

It seemed like she made a habit out of shoving Meng Fan to the ground. Later, she took several chances while they were stretching to push him while he was unbalanced.

Today was no different.

Only the result was a bit different from the other days.

Wu Tong's sudden push didn't push Meng Fan to the ground. Instead, she herself became unstable due to the excitement of her sneak attack and began to fall over.

She didn't land on the ground but on Meng Fan.

Meng Fan's entire body was stiff!

Luck +1!

This was the kind of luck Meng Fan was dreaming about!

Was it just luck? No, it was happiness!

Although Wu Tong stood up very fast and they were only in contact for a short while and although there was no substantial physical contact… Meng Fan was overjoyed!

It was slightly past 9 When Meng Fan and his group entered the venue for the provincial finals.

There were a lot of people in his group, and it attracted a lot of attention.

Meng Fan was a man with a strong sense of presence and was the crowd favorite to win the provincial finals. As soon as he arrived at the entrance of the mall, a microphone and camera were hovering over him.

Wu Tong, Wei Zhi Xue, Wang Ya Nan, the other girls from the academy including the four girls in the maid army were all very good looking, and when standing next to each other, they were hard to not notice.

As for Zhang Zhou Wei and the others standing to the side... Nobody noticed them.

Meng Fan walking from the entrance of the mall to the arcade was like filming a movie.

"He's so high profile!"

When Meng Fan arrived at the arcade, he greeted Da Fei and the others who had already arrived and hurried to the rest area. Before leaving, he left his phone. He had to be lowkey, but this event had to be streamed.

The provincial finals began at 9:00 am.

There weren't many players participating in the provincial finals, even fewer than the city qualifiers. Like the singles tournaments, there was only 1 advancement spot for each of the 11 prefectures in the Zhejiang province. That was, only 11 players were able to enter the singles' provincial finals.

The routine for the provincial finals was different from the city qualifiers. It was simple. There were two rounds, with the top-six coming from the first round and the second round deciding the championship.

There was only one spot for the national finals reserved for the provincial champion.

Aside from the singles, there were also doubles and mixed doubles, plus an added category for teams. Because of this, the schedule for the tournament was relatively compact.

The first to begin was the mixed doubles category, where 11 groups attended.

Following right after was round one for teams. There were only six teams that had entered, so the first round would determine the top 3 teams.

Then, it was the doubles. The singles rounds would come last.

Without question, the singles category had always been the most anticipated match. Not to mention, Meng Fan, who was attending it, was also a world record holder.

They would score three times in the first round, and the combined score would be their final.

"Iron hero is invincible!"

As soon as Meng Fan appeared on the court, screams and cheering appeared in the audience. It wasn't just the maid army who had been cheering him on, Wu Tong and the other girls were shouting too. Zhang Zhou Wei, Da Fei, and the other guys were also screaming vigorously. In addition, there were other audience members joining in on the commotion too.

It was as if everyone had been waiting for this moment. They had stood up as soon as Meng Fan entered the court. They weren't rowdy enough to overturn the rough, but they did indeed cause some serious trauma to the other players.

As a contestant, they were all aware of Meng Fan. They all researched his competition videos and watched his practice yesterday as well.

They were aware of Meng Fan's nickname too and of his maid army. But the question was, how did they expand?

There were several superstar players in basketball, but there were none in arcade basketball.

This kind of treatment was no different from a superstar and his fans!

They had to defeat him!

The kings from these 10 cities formed an alliance without another word.

It was just that it was an individual competition, so they had no way to target him.

Maybe...

Suddenly, a scene appeared in their minds. 'Sorry, I was bullsh*tting you!'

After the first throw of round 1, the kings of the 10 cities heard the exclamation from the audience and all looked toward Meng Fan's machine. Seeing his score, they all went cold.

　　841!

This was a new world record, just 1 point higher than the last!

Were his hands on fire?!

He broke his own world record in the first round!

This was just mean to the other players!

And why did he only raise it by 1 point?

A coincidence? Or… Did he do it on purpose?

Could this f*cking be done on purpose?

Very soon, after the first round's second throw, they had the answer.

It could!
