The basketball finals was scheduled to be on Saturday at 9am, when YeLang reached XuXian's place at 8am, LingYang's door was still tightly closed.
XuXian gestured helplessly, "YangYang is still sleeping, he is the reincarnation of Morpheus, if there's no breakfast to bait him he can sleep till ten. You better call him up, if not we won't be able to leave today."
XuXian returned to his room for a phone call, YeLang knocked on LingYang's door, but after a few knocks there was still no reply. As they were all guys, YeLang did not think too much, he just pushed open the door.
XuXian suddenly thought of something, sticking his head out from his room, "Right, don't go into his room, YangYang has a..."
He had only spoken halfway, and then he saw YeLang quickly closing the door, an awkward look upon his face.
The corner of XuXian's mouth twitched, struggling to complete his sentence, "... habit of sleeping in the nude, he says that like this he can get closer to nature..."
YeLang's head tilted down, he did not express any opinions.
  
XuXian suddenly realised he had made a mistake, "I'll go wake him up instead."
Talking into the phone for a bit, he hung up and pushed LingYang's door open.
Seeing the image in front of him he closed his eyes, next time he had to teach YangYang, a blanket was for covering himself, not for rolling into a ball and hugging it to sleep.
Walking closer XuXian also saw the scar on LingYang's back that YeLang had mentioned the last time, it was a very long and irregular scar, although it had healed completely, but one could imagine that the situation then was very dangerous, no wonder LingYang would become dizzy near water.
  
LingYang was unwillingly roused from the bed by XuXian, walking out of his room sluggishly he saw YeLang. He immediately perked up, happily greeting him.
YeLang turned his head to the side awkwardly, as though he was thinking about something he should not be thinking about.
  
By the time the three of them reached the competition venue, the seats around the basketball court were already full, many people without seats were squeezing in the aisles and back row.
However BaiLong had somehow managed to reserve four seats in the first row with the best view, when XuXian and the rest sat down, they could feel numerous eyes on their backs.
  
The competition had yet to start, the atmosphere in the court was already very enthusiastic, an unknown group was taking bets, LingYang who loved joining in the fun also wanted to go up and place a bet.
"Are they betting on the winner and loser?" XuXian asked.
LingYang smiled evilly, "They're betting in which quarter would the fight start."
Both QianTang and LuoMing's playing styles were known to be very aggressive, each time they met nothing good would happen. Nearly every finals conflicts would happen, technical offences were considered light, the most serious time was when they even beat up the referee who came up to stop them, ending up with the referee having to go to the hospital. Both of them were disqualified then.
"What did you bet on?" BaiLong asked him.
"I bet that they would not fight, the odds on this are very slim, if it happens I'll win big," After that he turned and asked YeLang, "Brother Lang you want to follow my bet? It's highly profitable."
YeLang thought about it for a moment, passing his wallet to him, LingYang also unabashedly took a note out from it, "Don't worry, with Little White Dragon here, I won't let you lose any money."
BaiLong nodded, "This is a good idea."
  
As expected, once the game started both teams started displaying little underhand tricks, the bodily contact increased, as there were too many of them, the referee could only close one eye, if not the game would not be able to go on. XuXian watched from the audience, and felt that LingYang's money was about to go down the drain.
People from the military school were trained in beating people, as such, their actions were more skilful, attacking their opponents sneakily without a change in their expressions, using their elbows and hitting them in all their main points.
T.Rex's stomach was elbowed by one of the players from the military school, angry he pushed that guy, the referee immediately blew a whistle and called foul. QiFeng went up to hold back the furious T.Rex, whispering something into his ear, and only like this the situation was stabilised.
  
Seeing this some of the people from the military school exchanged looks, they confirmed who the breaking point would be, that later all the underhand tricks would fall onto T.Rex. As they leapt for the control of the ball again, two players from the military school used their bodies and slammed against T.Rex, pushing him out of the group.
QiFeng who was always calm lost his temper when seeing this, he immediately grabbed onto the collar of the offending player, the other party also immediately retaliated. Players from the military school had long expected this to happen, they crowded around the two of them, while players from the sports school were also reluctant to show any weakness, they stepped forward bravely, a fight ready to be triggered at any moment.
  
Catcalls rang out from the audience, especially from those who had bet that the fight would start in the first quarter. In a twinkling, a figure dressed in white jumped down from the three metres high stand, appearing in front of the two people that were gripping onto each other, he grabbed onto their wrists with both his hands.
The both of them were shocked by the sudden appearance of this outsider, the military school players were about to start a fight with him, but upon seeing who it was, their fists stopped in midair.
"Play a good game, why are you guys fighting?" BaiLong advised them earnestly.
"They started it first," The people from the military school, not resigned, they pointed at QiFeng.
BaiLong let go, he took a step back, tilting his head down slightly he used his index finger to rub the tip of his nose.
The people from the military school immediately quietened down.
Seeing this, QiFeng let go as well, turning around to show concern over T.Rex's injuries.
  
The referee who was originally ready to run away then blew his whistle, trembling in fear. "You you you, how can the audience run onto the court?"
BaiLong laughed, "I'm their biggest fan, just wanted an autograph, I'll go back now."
BaiLong ran back, jumping up, scrambling up the wall and returned to his seat.
Climbing walls was one of the basic trainings in the military school, the students from the military school did not pay any attention to it, but students from other schools were all impressed by that one move.
  
LingYang counting his money, did not lift up his head, as though he was already used to situations like this, "You see, this is the might of QianTang's number 1 tyrant."
XuXian's face was full of worship, while YeLang was somewhat surprised. Looking at him, BaiLong really only looked like a scholar.
"Too bad he's actually a bastard." LingYang continued, laughing slyly.
BaiLong tilted his head down slightly, his index finger rubbed his nose tip. LingYang immediately shut his mouth, holding back his smile he pretended as though he did not say anything and BaiLong did not hear anything.
