Just as the public was beginning to question Su Jing’s sanity, another explosive piece of news rocked the headlines.
A leaked document revealed the list of Chinese participants in the highly anticipated Tokyo Olympics, and to everyone’s astonishment, Su Jing’s name was prominently featured on it.
But what truly caught everyone off guard was the mind-boggling number of events he was set to participate in.
The list showcased his participation in over ten disciplines, ranging from the 100-Meter Race, 200-Meter Race, and 400-Meter Race, to the 110-Meter Hurdles, 400-Meter Hurdles, High Jump, Long Jump, Decathlon, Triathlon, and even unconventional sports like Boxing, Karate, Basketball, and Soccer.
It was as if he had gone completely insane.
Su Jing, despite being a master of Martial Arts and an extraordinary athlete in Extreme Sports was not a professional Athlete by any means.
While he possessed remarkable skills, it remained questionable whether he could compete with world-class athletes in each specific sport.
It was akin to envisioning Bruce Lee or an Extreme Sports Athlete participating in a Running Event— could they truly outshine professional athletes specialized in that discipline?
Even if Su Jing’s abilities were exceptional, it was likely that he would face significant challenges and be at a disadvantage when it came to competing in professional sports.
Moreover, with the widespread adoption of Lantian Silver Thread Rice and Vigorous Demonic Bull Fist, the physical fitness of Athletes across the globe had been rapidly improving, leading to the continuous shattering of records and further diminishing Su Jing’s comparative advantage.
Yet, not only had Su Jing secured a place in the Tokyo Olympics, but he had also managed to qualify for an astonishing number of events, raising eyebrows and causing speculation to run wild.
“Oh my god, Su Jing has truly gone mad.”
“It’s one thing to dabble in different fields, but to participate in the Sydney Olympics and in more than ten events? What does he think the Olympics are?”
“The scariest part is that this list means he will officially compete, which implies he passed the qualifiers in every single event.”
“Good heavens, even if it’s just the qualifiers, passing so many and excelling in the decathlon, he’s already reaching the heavens.”
“I wonder if he can win any medals, and how many.”
“I think boxing and karate have a good chance. Despite the limitations of the rules in these two sports, Su Jing is just too good. He should be able to win medals, even gold. As for the other events, it’s doubtful.”
The fact that he had passed the qualifiers in every single discipline on his extensive list was a testament to his extraordinary prowess and skill. The general consensus among the public was a mixture of awe and disbelief at his accomplishments.
Some exclaimed in amazement, “Good heavens, even qualifying for so many events and excelling in the decathlon alone is an extraordinary feat, reaching the realm of the otherworldly beings.”
Faced with Su Jing’s audacious move, his friends and relatives couldn’t help but reach out to him to inquire about his motivations and the situation at hand. They felt that he had crossed some invisible boundary and seemed to be propelled by a sudden inspiration or drive.
Among them, Wang Zhuo had already called Su Jing twice in a single day, his concern evident in his voice. “A’Jing, what has gotten into you? I found it odd when you sought the limelight through Zheng Nan and the others earlier, but now you’re participating in the Olympics and multiple events at that. What is your intention behind all this?”
“Brother Zhuo, nothing extraordinary has happened. I simply realized that while I am young, I should embrace life to the fullest and strive to leave a lasting impact on this world,” Su Jing chuckled as he answered.
He didn’t tell the truth because it would only worry Wang Zhuo without serving any purpose. Faced with that undead creature, Wang Zhuo, and even the entire Wang Family, couldn’t help in the slightest.
“I understand, but what you’re leaving behind is far from ordinary; it’s nothing short of reshaping the entire world. However, with your participation in running, jumping, and more than ten other unrelated events, can you truly handle it all?” Wang Zhuo inquired, his concern still evident.
“You’ll see when the time comes,” Su Jing responded with a confident smile.
“Fair enough, I won’t press further. Let’s wait and witness your achievements. Since you’re in the spotlight now, why not seize this opportunity to promote our group?” Wang Zhuo suggested, recognizing the potential benefits of Su Jing’s action to their business.
“Hehe, discuss it with Zheng Nan and promote it however you want. Don’t be afraid of rapid development,” Su Jing said.
After ending the call, Su Jing returned to his routine at the Super Universe Garbage Station, diligently sorting through the heaps of trash.
Despite his recent forays into various fields and his continuous absorption of substantial spiritual force, he hadn’t forgotten to scour the pile of garbage from the “World of Immortals” Universe.
However, he had yet to find the specific method he sought to deal with the Undead menace he had let escape.
As he continued his search, Su Jing’s attention was abruptly drawn to an incoming call from an unfamiliar number. Without hesitation, he decided to ignore it.
However, within moments, he received a text message from the same unknown sender: “Mr. Su, hello, I’m A’Diao. Due to some misunderstandings in the past, I unknowingly offended Wei Xiaoxuan. Later on, my boss, who failed to grasp the situation, accepted money from Song Junhao to send people to capture you. I realize my audacity and the gravity of my unforgivable crime. If it weren’t for something significant, I wouldn’t dare to disturb you. I have obtained crucial information that I think should be brought to your attention.”
Su Jing’s mind raced as he tried to make sense of the situation. Memories of the bald man who had confronted him before resurfaced in his thoughts. Although Su Jing didn’t know the man’s name, he remembered their encounter vividly.
This man was determined to confront Wei Xiaoxuan and had approached Su Jing, only to be met with a character infused with Sword Intent, terrifying him enough to make a swift retreat.
However, the man’s gang, driven by greed, had later accepted payment from Song Junhao and attempted to harm Su Jing once again. Su Jing had shown them no mercy, teaching them a lesson they wouldn’t soon forget.
Su Jing had assumed that the man and his associates wouldn’t dare to cross his path again but here he is again. Curiosity piqued, he decided to answer the call and got straight to the point. “What information do you have?” he asked.
