Chapter 14: The Unstoppable Fang Yu
Yang Xu was about 1.9 meters tall, half a head taller than Fang Yu. Moreover, his build looked not just one size larger than Fang Yu's.
With such a significant difference in physical fitness, there was no need to compare their basketball skills.
Just relying on his physique, Yang Xu could overpower Fang Yu.
"Just a one - on - one match is a bit boring. There should be a penalty," Yang Xu said with a faint smile, tossing the ball to Fang Yu.
"What kind of penalty?" Fang Yu asked.
"The loser has to do a hundred push - ups in front of everyone. Everyone here is responsible for supervision, and they can't leave until they're done. What do you think?" Yang Xu asked, a hidden malice in his smile.
"No problem," Fang Yu nodded.
A burst of mocking laughter rang out.
Wasn't Fang Yu just asking for it? Losing and then having to do a hundred push - ups. With his build, could he even finish?
Subsequently, the girls around formed a cheerleading squad and chanted in unison, "Yang Xu, come on! Yang Xu, come on..."
Almost everyone was rooting for Yang Xu, making Fang Yu seem rather lonely.
Yang Xu had long noticed Tang Xiaorou on the outer edge of the crowd, and a flash of pride crossed his eyes.
Today, I'll let you see the gap between your deskmate and me.
Tang Xiaorou bit her red lips lightly, looking at Fang Yu with a poker - faced expression, her heart filled with nervousness.
She knew Fang Yu had no chance of winning. She just hoped Fang Yu wouldn't confront Yang Xu head - on. Otherwise, with Yang Xu's personality, he would surely attack Fang Yu.
Fang Yu held the ball with both hands, looking at the basketball hoop not far away.
He wasn't lying. He really didn't know much about playing basketball.
However, he knew that as long as he threw the ball into the hoop, it counted as a score.
Wasn't this simple?
Fang Yu grabbed the ball with one hand and was about to throw it towards the hoop.
Yang Xu stood with his hands on his hips, showing no intention of defending.
"Hahaha... Look at Fang Yu's shooting posture. He really doesn't know how to play basketball,"
"Yeah, it's so ridiculous. Look, Young Master Yang doesn't even bother to defend,"
"This is so boring..."
The on - looking students let out a chorus of boos, showing their disdain for Fang Yu.
Fang Yu paid no heed and threw the ball.
"Swish!"
The ball went through the net.
Those who had been booing were stunned.
Damn, he could make it even by throwing randomly? What amazing luck!
Yang Xu raised his eyebrows and said, "Lucky shot."
"Then? Is it my turn to defend you now?" Fang Yu asked.
"That's right. But from now on, you won't have another chance to shoot," Yang Xu said with a cold smile, walking to the three - point line and changing positions with Fang Yu.
"Yang Xu, come on..."
Seeing Yang Xu with the ball, the cheering around started again.
Yang Xu looked at Fang Yu in front of him, his eyes filled with coldness.
He wanted to humiliate Fang Yu thoroughly!
And there were only two ways to humiliate an opponent on the basketball court. One was a dunk over the opponent, and the other was to shoot the ball in disregard of the defense.
Yang Xu knew he had a physical advantage, so he wanted to teach Fang Yu a lesson with his body.
"Pat, pat, pat..."
Yang Xu started dribbling, then suddenly accelerated and broke through to the left.
His shoulder was thrust forward. If Fang Yu dared to come up to defend, he would surely be knocked flying.
Fang Yu indeed stepped forward and stood in front of Yang Xu.
"Courting death," Yang Xu sneered, while gathering strength in his shoulder.
With his strength as a fifth - stage Xiantian Martial Artist, this shoulder charge would send Fang Yu to bed for at least a week.
But Fang Yu was asking for it.
However, when Yang Xu made this charged shoulder strike, he hit nothing but air.
At the same time, he felt his right hand, which was dribbling the ball, lighten.
The ball was stolen!
How could this be possible!?
Yang Xu turned his head and saw that Fang Yu had indeed grabbed the basketball.
A gasp of surprise rang out from the crowd.
No one expected that Fang Yu could steal the ball from Yang Xu when he was charging forward like a tiger.
"Damn it!" Yang Xu felt extremely humiliated, especially since Fang Yu was looking at him with a half - smile.
Fang Yu grabbed the basketball with one hand again and was about to shoot.
Yang Xu had said that he would never give Fang Yu a chance to shoot!
So, he immediately lunged at Fang Yu with all his might, jumping up very high.
If Fang Yu shot, the ball would undoubtedly be blocked.
But Fang Yu was in no hurry. Seeing Yang Xu jump up, he calmly took a step to the right and then threw the ball.
"Swish!"
Another goal.
The surroundings fell into silence.
Everyone was dumbfounded.
If the first shot was luck, what about the second one?
Both were clean shots through the net!
Moreover, Fang Yu had stolen the ball from Yang Xu and tricked him into jumping with a fake move.
Did Fang Yu really not know how to play basketball?
Although his shooting posture was strange, it was clear that he could play basketball! And he was a master!
At this moment, Yang Xu was furious, and his eyes turned fierce.
Not only had he been stolen from by Fang Yu, but he had also been toyed with!
With so many people watching, this was too embarrassing!
What Yang Xu cared most about was his face and dignity.
"This is the last shot," Fang Yu threw the ball back to Yang Xu.
Yang Xu caught the ball and started dribbling.
This time, he was determined to knock Fang Yu flying and score the goal at the same time.
Before Fang Yu could step forward to defend, Yang Xu started running and jumped near the free - throw line.
This time, he was going to dunk!
Fang Yu, who was shorter than him, couldn't stop him!
"Wow... Yang Xu is angry. He's going to dunk!" Some boys shouted excitedly.
The girls were looking at Yang Xu, who seemed to be flying in the air, with starry eyes.
But Fang Yu jumped vertically in the path of Yang Xu's flight.
He didn't seem to exert much effort, but he jumped to the same height as Yang Xu.
"You can't escape this time!" Yang Xu gritted his teeth, his whole body tense, with his strength reaching its peak.
His mind was filled with anger, and he didn't care about the consequences at all.
So what if he seriously injured or even killed Fang Yu?
With the Yang family backing him, Yang Xu didn't have to bear any consequences!
Fang Yu reached out his hand and directly pressed on the basketball in Yang Xu's right hand.
Yang Xu gritted his teeth and exerted all his strength, trying to force the basketball into the hoop.
But no matter how hard he tried, the ball couldn't move forward any further.
Instead, he himself felt all his strength drained after this confrontation, just like punching into cotton. It was extremely uncomfortable.
"Bang!"
Yang Xu lost his balance in the air and landed on his buttocks.
Fang Yu, on the other hand, easily grabbed the basketball, walked slowly out of the three - point line, and took another shot.
"Swish!"
The third goal was scored.
Three - nil. Yang Xu was completely defeated!
The basketball court was deathly quiet. Everyone stared with wide eyes at Fang Yu, who looked calm, and Yang Xu, whose face was twisted in anger.
They never dreamed that Yang Xu would lose, and in such a decisive way.
Yang Xu didn't score a single goal.
Even Tang Xiaorou was covering her mouth at this moment, staring blankly at Fang Yu.
Zhao Shuang'er, seeing Yang Xu sitting on the ground, a flash of pity crossed her eyes. When she looked at Fang Yu, there was a hint of resentment.
"Mr. Yang, do your hundred push - ups slowly," Fang Yu left these words and turned to leave the court.
The on - looking students automatically made way for Fang Yu.
Fang Yu's performance just now had completely stunned everyone present.
Some girls even secretly developed a sense of admiration, their eyes filled with hearts.
"I suddenly think this Fang Yu has become so handsome..."
Fatty Liu quickly caught up with Fang Yu, his chubby face red with excitement, and asked eagerly, "Fang Yu, you've been hiding it so well. Usually, I never see you play basketball. But when you do, you even trounce the eldest son of the Yang family."
"I really don't know much about playing basketball. I just can throw the ball into the hoop," Fang Yu said.
"Hehe, don't be modest. After today, you'll be famous throughout the school. You'll be a big star in the school. Didn't you see just now how many girls were giving you flirtatious looks? Tsk - tsk..." Fatty Liu chuckled lewdly.
Fang Yu sighed.
Just as Fatty Liu said, after today, it was really impossible for him to keep a low profile.
"Well, my master once said that everything should be left to nature. I don't need to deliberately keep a low profile, nor do I need to flaunt myself. Just let things take their natural course," Fang Yu thought to himself.
After the PE class, Fang Yu returned to the classroom. Inevitably, his classmates in the class looked at him with strange eyes.
Fang Yu didn't care about these looks.
But when Tang Xiaorou, who was sitting next to him, also leaned over and stared at him, he couldn't ignore it.
They were deskmates, already sitting close. Now, with Tang Xiaorou leaning forward, her face was less than ten centimeters away from Fang Yu's.
"Obviously, you're curious about me,"
"As far as I know, the initial stage of most love is curiosity. So, I suggest you nip your curiosity about me in the bud as soon as possible," Fang Yu turned his head and looked directly at Tang Xiaorou, saying.
