The King's Avatar: The Sword Immortal Returns

Chapter 168 My seven-foot frame has already been pledged to the competition; now I can pledge it to you as well—

Mo Qian's mind was only occupied with two things: the competition and Su Mucheng. The fact that he specifically reserved a spot for Mucheng proved whether or not Mucheng truly cared for him.

However, now is the time to fight for our country; let's put aside personal feelings for later.
While Ye Xiu and Han Wenqing were still in the training room marveling at Mo Qian's condition, where was Mo Qian at that moment?

Of course, he was taking a walk with Su Mucheng. It was rare for Su Mucheng to have the same amount of free time as Mo Qian. At this moment, no competition could disturb them.
Besides, there are countless "professional paparazzi" hiding in the bushes.
In fact, Chu Yunxiu is the most arrogant, practically following Su Mucheng around like a shadow. And then there's Dai Yanqi from the Thunder team; both of them are extremely fond of gossip.
Behind them were the vast number of professional men, with Huang Shaotian and the others watching silently. They were still curious whether Mu Cheng would confess her feelings to Mo Qian tonight.

"Hey, do you guys really think that Lao Mo, this straight-laced guy, will say yes to Su Mucheng?"

"Why not? That's Su Mucheng!"

"No, no, no—you're all too superficial. Who told you that you would definitely accept Su Mucheng's confession? At least based on my understanding of Lao Mo, he most likely won't accept it."

Huang Shaotian followed along with the others with great seriousness, looking just like a dating guru.
Seeing Huang Shaotian's confident demeanor, the others nodded in agreement, agreeing that what he said made a lot of sense.

After all, they simply couldn't imagine what it would be like for a sword immortal to be in love, considering that sword immortals were like war gods on the battlefield.

"Mu Cheng—you—"

After a long while, Mo Qian still felt he needed to tell Mu Cheng that the current situation was far too special. It was during the first World Invitational Tournament, and if he claimed he wouldn't be distracted at all while dating, who would believe him?

"Yes, I know. I'll wait for you, no matter how long it takes—"

Mu Cheng interrupted Mo Qian before he could finish speaking. Mu Cheng knew Mo Qian well enough to know what he wanted to say.
Even so, Mu Cheng was still a little sad, but she could only comfort herself by saying, "I've waited for so many years, what's one or two more days?"

"Phew—I'm sorry, Mu Cheng." Mo Qian sighed, and in the end, all he could do was apologize to Mu Cheng.
Mu Cheng, on the contrary, pouted her little mouth, angrily took Mo Qian's hand to her mouth, and bit it hard!
"Ouch!"

Mo Qian cried out in pain. Mu Cheng had really bitten him hard this time. Of course, Mu Cheng didn't bite any part of Mo Qian related to the competition; she just bit him hard and then let go.
"Mu Cheng, are you trying to murder your husband?!"

Mo Qian said this subconsciously, it was entirely out of instinct.
Mu Cheng's face flushed red, and her ears turned bright red as she said:
"Who, who asked you to apologize so casually? And what's with all this talk about being a close husband? We haven't gotten to that point yet—I'll just, I'll allow you to call me that this once—"

Mu Cheng took the hand that had been bitten by Mu Cheng's. Actually, weren't these two a match made in heaven? What could possibly stop them?

"So sweet—Waaaaah, Brother Shaotian, I want to have a sweet romance too—"

Zheng Xuan tried to hug Huang Shaotian, but Huang Shaotian ruthlessly pushed him away.
"You think you can start a relationship? I haven't even started yet—"

Huang Shaotian was furious at Zheng Xuan, and seeing Mo Qian's happy expression made him extremely uncomfortable.
As the saying goes, sometimes you're afraid your brothers aren't doing well, but when you see them doing too well, you really feel like you want to leave them.

I'm not afraid of my brothers suffering, I'm afraid of my brothers driving Land Rovers.

"Waaaaah, it's so sweet—Sister Xiuxiu—" Unlike the two men on Huang Shaotian's side, Chu Yunxiu and Dai Yanqi were much more romantic. The two beauties hugged each other, both expressing their excitement.

This kind of relationship is actually more comfortable than that of a romantic relationship. Su Mucheng knows that Mo Qian likes her, and Mo Qian also knows that Mucheng deeply likes him.

After knowing about this, whether the two of them will have a formal status is only a matter of time.

The next day—

"Tactical Masters Squad! Assemble!"

Ye Xiu sounded the assembly call early in the morning. Their next opponent was the Greek team, and Ye Xiu needed to prepare well. Losing would be quite embarrassing.

After all, they played so well in the first match against Japan. If the gap between this performance and the first one is too big, they might get a lot of criticism.
As the team captain, Ye Xiu absolutely has to take responsibility.

"Holy crap! Old Ye, are you some kind of superhero? Starting training so early???"

Huang Shaotian woke up groggily and was utterly shocked to see that Ye Xiu had already started training.
Ye Xiu didn't really want to, but his physical condition required maintaining high-intensity training to keep his strength at a good level.
Mo Qian saw Ye Xiu's problem, but he was powerless to help. All he could do was to have more one-on-one matches with Ye Xiu during regular training.

If Ye Xiu knew that Mo Qian wanted to help him in this way, Ye Xiu would definitely say something to Mo Qian:
"I really am grateful to you—"

Mo Qian's training methods are effective, but they are also the most painful. How can you feel good when you see yourself being tortured all the time?

People with a bad mindset should avoid participating in Mo Qian's training, as their blood pressure might spike.

"Old Ye, wanna have a game?"

Mo Qian looked at Ye Xiu, who had been training for a while, and said that this was the first time Mo Qian wanted to fight Ye Xiu. Mo Qian wanted to personally experience just how much Ye Xiu's strength had declined.

Five minutes later, the match ended, and Mo Qian won.

"Things seem to be getting a bit serious. Old Ye's strength seems to be declining rather quickly."

Mo Qian has tested Ye Xiu, and his strength is now completely different from what it was at the beginning. It seems that Ye Xiu is indeed on the decline.

"Old Ye's strength will be noticeably different after just one more match. Why now of all times? — It looks like the World Championship after that is going to be a bit troublesome. I need to step up —"
