America: A Prodigy of Stereotypes

At the bus stop, the bus that Peter was taking home today arrived first, and Li Qun waved goodbye to Peter and Gwen.

The preliminary rounds of the street fighting tournament were held in different locations throughout Queens.

Li Qun felt that after following the entire season of street fighting matches, he would be completely familiar with the bus route map of Queens.

"Hey kid."

Three Mexican men flanked Liqun from both sides of the bus stop.

Li Qun looked at the unfamiliar Mexican man who greeted him and realized that he was one of the three guys who had tried to rob him in the alley last time.

"Surprised? Oh my god!"

"We've found you."

"How did you find me?" Li Qun asked calmly.

"We're here to watch the game too," the other side replied.

"Should we make a move?" Li Qun looked around; the only way he could run was across the road.

"What do you say?"

The gang leader reached into his pocket, a small knife flicking out of his hand, and said to Li Qun, "Hand over the money obediently; you owe us medical bills."

Li Qun kicked out, sending the knife from the thug leader's hand flying into the road.

"And now?" Li Qun asked calmly.

"We plan to send you the medical bills. Could you tell us where you live?"

Chapter 18 Gwen's Sheriff Dad

"Don't think we'll let this go. We'll teach you a lesson next time."

The three Mexican-American street thugs stood together again, and the gang leader threw out a threatening remark at Li Qun from the roadside.

"Are you going to pull out a gun and threaten me next time we meet?"

"I was right."

"As long as you know."

The gang leader felt he had regained his dignity.

"This is New York, and New York has its own rules, you know?"

"So, will you include some of my friends as well?" Li Qun continued to ask.

"Correct."

"I saw it all."

“A bookworm, a female bookworm, and an old man,” the gang leader replied.

"I advise you to give up the idea of ​​causing trouble for us, or you'll end up in jail."

"The bookish girl you mentioned, her father is a sheriff in the New York Police Department. And the old man you mentioned, he's actually a retired official from some government department, with extensive connections."

"You're quite lucky today; you only came to me after my friends left."

"Are you lying to us?" The three thugs stared intently at Li Qun.

“I can beat you all down first and then call the police, and have my classmate’s dad personally drive to pick you up and take you to the police station.”

Li Qun suddenly raised his hand and made a classic kung fu gesture towards the three thugs, startling them.

"Let's assume you're telling the truth."

"Don't let us see you again!!"

The three Mexican-American street thugs ran away.

Stereotype +5...

Li Qun glanced around the bus stop area and saw several passersby watching from a distance.

I just made two movements. First, I kicked the switchblade out of the thug leader's hand, and second, I made an attacking stance.

After waiting for almost ten more minutes, the bus heading towards Chinatown finally arrived.

After boarding the bus, Li Qun sat down in the last row and focused his attention on his attribute panel.

Willpower: 31 (Limit Break) 40

Athletic ability: 31 (breakthrough) 40

Assignable attribute points (5)

To gain available attribute points, Li Qun needs to do something impressive in front of others, and in a unique way.

However, showing off contradicts Li Qun's survival strategy; he doesn't want to actively collect attribute points.

Living on American soil, sensible people will choose to live a low-key life.

Li Qun adds the 5 points evenly; his point-adding strategy is an average strategy.

Willpower: 31 (Limit Break) 43

Athletic ability: 31 (breakthrough) 42

Assignable attribute points (0)

Even after closing the attribute panel, Liqun was still frustrated with it.

The six individual values ​​have a limit of 31, and the attribute points added after the limit is broken are calculated separately. The meaning of this is still unclear to Liqun.

However, he did figure out one thing.

Reaching the limit in all six individual stats does not mean that his physical abilities have reached their limit. He still needs to work hard to tap into his potential and convert that potential into strength.

Individual values ​​represent a character's potential.

He maxed out all his individual stats, which simply meant that the potential development of his six abilities could reach the maximum limit of human capabilities.

Li Qun speculates that there may be hidden racial stat panels for different races.

The racial stat panel reflects the areas where a race excels.

Similar to the Black race, their athleticism may be particularly outstanding on the racial stat panel. Once their potential is fully developed to its limit, their athleticism stats will be higher and stronger than those of other races.

Liqun complained once again that its attribute panel did not provide a user manual.

It's also possible that the attribute panel is showing itself on the operating table while providing a beginner's tutorial.

I accidentally clicked skip.

An attribute panel that doesn't feel satisfying.

Who designed it?

"I got home a little late today."

"Dad, the competition venue is a bit far, and the bus was stuck in traffic on the way back."

"How was today's match? Can you recount what happened?"

Li Qun nodded, recalling the moves of Muay Thai and kickboxing fighters while demonstrating them to his father. After watching Li Qun's movements, his father closely reenacted them with him.

My dad's going to teach me some moves!

The old man raised his elbow and gently elbowed Li Qun in the side ribs, making Li Qun think about how to defend himself and fight back.

"It's too close, I can't get away!"

"Then you're finished."

The old man elbowed Liqun hard, and Liqun's breath caught in his throat for a moment.

"You elbow me."

Li Qun was also afraid of hurting his father with his elbow, so he raised his arm and elbowed him.

"Can you feel it?"

The old man raised his knee and aimed it at Li Qun's groin.

"At this distance, if you and your opponent are standing at the same time, he can strike your ribs very quickly and in a very short time, but you can also directly incapacitate him to fight."

Liqun thought his father was too cunning. Using his knee to strike the opponent like that not only rendered them incapable of fighting again, but also rendered them unable to stand up.

"But these are also Muay Thai moves, and there's a very high chance they'll be used together," the old man reminded him.

"There is another way."

"Bend backwards and support yourself with your hands on the ground behind you."

"At this point, you can kick his shin with your foot, and if your legs are long enough, you can also kick his knee and thigh."

The old man demonstrated to Liqun, his movements were very agile.

After reviewing the games we watched today with Liqun, Dad continued to have Liqun practice his basic skills.

Li Qun now really enjoys the process of unlocking his physical potential, and he feels a sense of accomplishment every day after exercising.

"Dad, don't you want to go to the game live?" Li Qun asked curiously.

"I'll only watch the final of the streetball tournament in three weeks," Dad replied casually.

"concentrate."

When his father slapped two ping-pong balls at him, Liqun shut his mouth and used both hands to hit the balls back.
