Running wasn’t a difficult thing for these teenagers that had been running since they were 5 or 6, but running a long distance was very challenging.

Su Hao estimated a single lap around the training grounds was about fifteen hundred meters. Running twenty laps would be running thirty kilometers. This wasn’t something ordinary people could complete.

As Su Hao ran the fifth lap, a portion of the students were expelled because they had slowed down too much.

As Su Hao ran the eighth lap, a portion of students became too tired and were expelled.

As Su Hao ran the tenth lap, some students began to surrender, cursing as they laid down on the ground, expelled.

As Su Hao ran the twelfth lap, 80 or so people had already been eliminated. Among them was Su Hao’s new roommate Hua Wanli.

Over time, the amount of people expelled continued to increase.

At this time, Su Hao observed that little fatty and He Qingqing were struggling.

During the fifteenth lap, the team had been stretched, every person was panting like a cow, almost reaching their limits. At this time, a hundred people had been expelled.

Jin Dayan took the lead and ran at the forefront.

His face was red, his breaths ragged like a cow, but despite his appearance, in reality, he still had a lot of energy. Based on his observations, other than a small portion of people he couldn’t see through their depths, the majority had reached their limits. That was to say, there was a 90% chance of him taking first place.

“Oh?” Jin Dayan suddenly saw a familiar figure. Wasn’t he the kid from the restaurant? How did he look so relaxed, not even breathing heavily! Was he faking?

Jin Dayan frowned and observed for a while, but couldn’t make out anything. He calculated the distance: “The other’s distance is more than half a lap behind. There are still five laps. In any case, he can’t catch up to me!”

Jin Dayan was determined and no longer bothered about other things and focused on running.

……

Starting from the fifteenth lap, Su Hao noticed something. After passing the fifteenth lap, those that reached their limits and were dead tired weren’t being eliminated. Instead, the ones being expelled were those that gave up before reaching their limits.

Making up his mind, Su Hao leaned over to He Qingqing: “Qingqing, as long as you still have even a bit of energy, you have to keep running. Trust me.”

Then he slowed down to littly fatty’s side and repeated what he told He Qingqing.

At this time, little fatty already was unable to respond to Su Hao. He could only move forward like a walking corpse. He didn’t know who he was, where he was, what he was doing. He only knew he had to keep running, otherwise he wouldn’t be able to raise his head for the rest of his life and would be a coward.

Seeing this, Su Hao relaxed a bit. He was most scared that little fatty would suddenly give up due to exhaustion, making it a waste of time.

He carefully observed the status of the crowd on the field and couldn’t help but secretly nod his head.

Worry of being warriors trained from youth, there were many strong people. Being eliminated only meant that you were too weak.

Right now, there were at least a hundred people running fairly steadily. Those towards the front were even more exaggerated, only slightly flushed red, panting heavily, not even sweating much.

On Su Hao’s eighteenth lap, 118 people were already eliminated, but Jin Datong didn’t call to stop.

Suddenly, little fatty’s feet stumbled and he fell forward. Before even hitting the ground, he was already unconscious.

Su Hao’s eyes were sharp, his hands fast. He reached and grabbed little fatty firmly, then he gently placed him on the ground. He didn’t delay at all and continued running onwards.

He actions attracted the attention of Jin Datong.

Jin Datong’s vision followed Su Hao’s movement. He frowned and thought to himself: “Where did this freak come from? There’s over 500 people here. Who isn’t panting like a cow, sweating like it’s raining. Only this kid, not even speaking of sweating, he’s not even breathing heavily. Is he fake running?”

Jin Datong thought a bit and he decided to test Su Hao. He spoke loudly: “Let’s play a game. To whoever places first, I will give him ten gold yuan!”

Jin Datong watched the Jin Dayan at the front, calculating the distance and thought to himself pleased: These ten gold yuan should be attractive enough, but the distance is only two laps to the finish. No matter who it is, there’s no way they can surpass my dumb younger brother Jin Dayan. Once my dumb younger brother takes first place, I can justify bilking on these ten gold yuan, hahaha!

Everyone heard these words.

The eight teachers behind Jin Datong looked at him in amazement. They had never heard of Jin Datong being so generous before. Previous years, the reward had been only a single gold yuan.

When the students in the field heard this matter, their eyes lit up, and they swelled up with energy.

Those who had energy to spare accelerated. Those with nothing to spare could only despair.

The voice had just reached when He Qingqing fell forward and was supported by Su Hao and placed on the ground. He Qingqing was still conscious, but was gasping for breath and couldn’t say anything.

Ten gold yuan, according to Su Hao’s calculator, was close to 100,000 units of buying power. It was a large amount of money.

And he needed money!

So Su Hao started.

“The ten gold yuan is mine. Don’t think about fighting me for it!”

Su hao mobilized the strength in his body and exploded out. His speed increased faster and faster, going at his almost peak speed. He passed one student after another.

The students that were overtaken had wide eyes and open mouths. Many forgot to keep running and just stood there, stupidly watching as Su Hao got faster and faster.

“Who is that?”

That was the question everyone was asking.

Jin Dayan who was at the very front was also clenching his and accelerating. He also heard his family’s eldest brother’s Jin Datong’s words. Ten gold yuan to him also wasn’t a small amount. It was enough to change for better-looking armor.

He still had a lot of energy to spare. This first place belonged to him.

Just as he was filled with self-confidence, beside him there was a “whoosh” and a figured ran past, stunning him.

“What was that?”

Taking a second look, it turned out to be the figure of someone running, whose age was younger than his, and the speed was beyond his reach.

His heart received a severe impact. He couldn’t believe it: “How is that possible!”

His heart broken, face filled with unwillingness, his speed dropped and came to a stop to the side, his eyes watching as Su Hao went further away.

That was because running further no longer had any meaning.

Then a miraculous scene appeared on the training grounds. All of the students stopped in their spots and watched Su Hao run further away.

Once Su Hao ran the last lap, he discovered that no one else was running. And wherever he ran, the students made way, like a scene from a school sports run.

“What’s happening?” Su Hao was a bit confused, but he couldn’t be bothered too much. It was the last lap, he was guaranteed the ten gold yuan.

He wasn’t interested in money. In his last life, he had more money than he could spend.

But now he was very poor. He was no longer qualified to not be interested in money. Until he earned enough money, he would keep a high-earning attitude.

Su Hao maintained a high speed and quickly reached the finish line, completing the twenty laps.

Then, his face still not red or panting, he jumped onto the platform and walked to Jin Datong and reached out his hand: “Teacher Jin, I got first place. Ten gold yuan. Thanks.”

The corner of Jin Datong’s mouth twitched. He didn’t have that much money on him. He turned to the eight teachers behind him in a plea for help. The eight teachers turned their heads slightly, pretending not to see.

Jin Datong coughed awkwardly: “Well, very good. What’s your name?”

“I’m Wu Xiangwu.”

Jin Datong quickly adjusted his state and said with a serious tone: “Very good, Wu Xiangwu. I’ll remember you. You’ve done very well.”

Su Hao once again reached out his hand: “Teacher Jin, what about my ten gold yuan?”

Jin Datong almost couldn’t hold his expression back. The veins above his eyebrow twitched. This kid had the face to ask twice in a row. The kid’s face was thicker than his own.

He had added money on a whim and had thought it a good idea.

Based on the way he saw it, in the end, his younger brother Jin Dayan would definitely win first place, then he could take a cut of the money.

He hadn’t thought that this freak would pop out from the woodworks and make everyone look dumb. It seems he was destined to part from these ten gold yuan.

Jin Dayan really was a stupid younger brother!

Stabilizing his mood, Jin Datong said: “Wu Xiangwu, don’t worry. You’ll definitely get your ten gold yuan. This old man will still be here tomorrow. I will give you the ten gold yuan in front of everyone. Promise!”

Su Hao frowned. When it comes to money, delays could give birth to various uncertain factors and the probability of it drifting away was possible. If Jin Datong avoided him tomorrow, where would he find him?

So under the eyes of everyone, Su Hao took out a piece of paper and pen. He got on the ground and he began to write.

Jin Datong curiously asked: “Wu Xiangwu, what are you writing?”

“IOU!”

Jin Datong’s face turned green. He was the Jin family’s eldest young master. When had he been treated like this?

The eight teachers behind couldn’t hold back any longer and they burst into laughter.
