The Strongest Man in the Universe

Chapter 55

Leo asked for a timeout and began discussing how to stop David. David's team at the rest area.

“Well, all right, Dave, you've been lying to us all this time!”

"That's right, you've never been so serious when you've played with us. Wh why? Are you looking down on us?”

Patrick and his gang also make fun of David. They didn't expect David to be so strong. Although Patrick knows that David's identity is somewhat mysterious, he doesn't expect him to play basketball well.

"No, my friends, I just enlightened recently.” David said with a wry smile.

'How should I explain this? Should I tell them that I have a really cool system and I can add points to whatever I want to learn? Will they believe me?'

Amelia sat in the audience. He sees David at rest and gets ready to go down and gives David some water in his hand. However, before he could do that, he noticed some girls had already gone to deliver water to David. Hence, he could only puff up his cheeks and sit there furiously.

"David, you're so handsome! Come on, drink water.” A girl ran into the field and handed David mineral water in her hands.

"Drink mine!"

"Just mine!”

Before David could answer, another bottle was handed to him.

"David, I admire you so much! Can you write a song for me too? I've thought about it, you can write the title ‘Love’ "

David was quickly snatched away by several girls. Only a few men sat next to Leo. No one came to deliver water to them. Although Leo is rich and is really a child of a wealthy family, his reputation is not very good. He was a playboy who always threw away his weight.

Seeing David so popular, Leo's mood got worse. He quickly walked onto the pitch with two of his team-mates and gestured for the referee to start the game.

Game continues. Leo serves the ball from a three-point field. Gorilla Max doesn't stay under the basket anymore and instead goes straight out to pick up Leo's pass. Then, he bent his body, dribbled with his right hand, and prepared to shoot the ball straight into the net. With his height and weight, the shot was already in the net once he got under the basket. Patrick is gradually pushed down the basket by Max. He also has no good solution.

His body and strength were too bad, so he could only desperately fight back. But it's useless. And he was quickly pushed down the basket. Max jumps forcefully, grabs the ball with his right hand, and tries to insert it. He's gonna do a dunk with Patrick between him and the basket.

“Good shot!” shouted Leo.

This shot must have gone into the basket. Gorilla Max is second to none at South River University in terms of being the ruler under the basket. Just as Max was about to dip the basketball, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him and slapped the ball from his hand.

Plakk!

The ball flew out. The figure that suddenly appeared was David. He had been watching Max's actions on one side all along. This was because he was waiting on the block at the last moment.

Max ‘Gorilla’ Thompson, early member of the University of South River basketball team, blocked?

After this, the students who knew about basketball at the scene could not sit still anymore. People who come here to have fun know nothing about basketball and they have no idea what a blocked shot means against this Gorilla Max.

“Sial, Max's powerful dunk in block by David! Did you see anything?”

"He's so amazing! That's so unbelievable! It's Max's Gorilla! It was about 200cm tall but David who was 180cm tall managed to block his shot!”

The sound of discussion resounded within the gymnasium. They were not so surprised when David managed to make three consecutive three-point throws. He only managed to cause an uproar among the people who came to join in for fun. However, this blocked shot was shocking.

He dares to fight Max, and even blocks his shot. David is awesome! Now, louder cheers echoed throughout the gymnasium.

“Come, David!”

"David, I love you!”

All kinds of screams could be heard at the same time.

Leo's face looked terrible as if he had eaten shit. After Max landed, he was still standing there in a daze. He has not returned to his senses.

She blocked?

And this happened at South River University?

He had never been defeated like this even when he went to compete with other universities. This was an insult in his basketball career.

Max looked at David in front of him, who was roughly one head shorter than him. Then, he said the first sentence since coming to the match.

"David, you're playing nice!”

However, it was clear that he was saying this with endless anger. David shrugged and said,

“You yourself are not bad."

Then, he ran back to the three-pointer court to catch the ball, leaving Max standing there with a dark face that gradually turned pale. As the ball is slapped from Max's hand, it coincidentally lands near Finn. Then, David catches the ball that Finn passed.

Leo immediately pressured David to stop him from shooting again. David moved agilely from left to right, but Leo was still behind.

In reality, David can only make shots because Leo is not a hindrance to him.

But, he felt it was not brilliant and shocking enough to win just like that.

‘Isn't it just dunk? I also know how to do it, right?’

David passed the ball to Patrick and then quickly turned around to pass Leo. At this point, Patrick passes the ball back to David. Without Leo blocking him in front, David quickly ran into the forbidden area while dribbling.

"Damn, what did David do? Isn't the three-point shot very accurate? He will win if he throws three more numbers. Why did he run to the area?”

“Who knows? Maybe he wants to do dunk.”

“It's a joke! Max is still there. Who would dare to do a dunk on it?”

“Newly, Max is blocked by David, so what else is impossible?”

'It was just an accident!”

Discussions among the audience did not affect David. A moment later, he dashed into the area and jumped like an eagle. After which, he pulled his right arm, which was holding the ball, to the back of his head.

"Damn it, he's gonna make Tomahawk Dunk!"

Everyone in the gymnasium was watching David closely. Max watched as David ran in and jumped. He wants to do a dunk over Max. How could Max let it go?

Just now, he was humiliated when he was blocked by David, and if Max allowed him to make a Tomahawk dunk on it now, he's, wouldn't he really be insulted as the number one center at South River University?

When David jumped and was about to dip the ball, Max jumped right away as well, and just like how David blocked it just now, he slapped the ball from David's hand.

Plaque!

The ball did not fly as far as before. Instead, the ball was now trapped in the air by two hands. Many people capture this scene with their cell phones.

It was an extreme confrontation. David looked at Max in front of him. In reality, he did not exert any strength at all. Even if there were ten Maxs in front of him, he would not be afraid. He exerted some force in his right hand that was holding the ball. Max can't hold back anymore. David's right hand pushed the ball, and the ball was forced past Max's right hand into the basket.

Srakk!

If he did not pull his hand back, his hand would probably break if David banged it against the basket. He didn't expect David to be so strong. At this moment, David's body touched his body. Max could only feel a strong force before he flew backwards uncontrollably. After he landed, he could not stand still and fell to the floor. And, David landed steadily. Everyone present was shocked.

Spectators surprised! David actually sent Max flying! Everyone doesn't believe. David was only 180cm tall and weighed a little over 60kg, but he managed to send Max, who was nearly 200cm tall and weighed 125 kilograms, flying?

It has uprooted everyone's imagination.

Max was also a little stunned as he lay on the floor.It was one thing that should be blocked, but he was even sent flying!

He had no face to wake up again. On one hand, Leo also widened his eyes, his face full of astonishment.

The audience exploded with deafening cheers. Once called the Piano Prince, David now has a new title. Basketball Prince. It is pretty clear who will score the next shot. After David caught the ball, he did a dashing back-to-the-basket punch. The ball enters the basket without touching the net.

Team David 10 VS Team Leo 8

Does David not need to look at the basket when shooting?

This is a little too much.

He scored a total of four three-pointers and one Tomahawk Dunk. They all come in too. The most incomprehensible thing was that he did not even look into the basket when he made the last three numbers. The game is over. David's name once again resonated at South River University.

In the evening, Leo buys the cheapest table dishes at the Golden Leaf Hotel. David and his friend didn't mind. They are fine with it as long as they have something to eat.

At noon the next day, Leo went into the broadcast room and shouted, "I AM TRASH!"

All the students on campus laughed out loud. Leo was really humiliated. Of course, he now hated David even more. He began to constantly think about how to take revenge against her.

The next few days passed peacefully. Two days passed in the blink of an eye. This weekend, David promised Tara that he would come to her house. Since he had promised her, she would not retract his words.

On Thursday, David was in class when he received a message from Amelia.

Amelia: David, are you free tomorrow? I want to buy you a meal.

David thought. And since he had no activity, he decided to leave. She felt ashamed to refuse the invitation of a campus Goddess. Therefore, he answered.

David: Okay, tell me the place and I'll be there tomorrow.

Amelia: You promised so you can't break your promise. I'll tell you the place tomorrow.

David: Okay!

The next day, David receives a call from Amelia. He asked her to go to the restaurant next to the Fuller Golden Sands Entertainment Center. Since the Fuller Golden Sands Entertainment Center is the largest in River City, there are plenty of restaurants around. They can just go have fun after eating. Isn't that nice?

David drives his Bugatti to the Fuller Golden Sands Entertainment Center and parks it at the entrance. When he reached the restaurant, he realized that there were a lot of people there. There were three large tables with at least 20 people. Even Leo and the other playboys are here.

"David, I bought you a nice meal a few days earlier. Why are you here to eat for free again today?” Leo won't be disinclined if there's a chance to heat up David.

"Leo, are you not aware that you were defeated two days ago? Why don't we pick a time for the rematch?”

"David, we're not in college so who wants to play basketball with you again? Plus, today is Amelia's birthday and you didn't even bring a gift. What are you doing here if you are not trying to get free food?”

David did not expect that today was Amelia's birthday. If he had known earlier, he wouldn't have come because he didn't want to spend time with people like Leo. Besides, he didn't even know these people.

"All right, stop fighting. Today is my birthday, so you have to listen to me. Sit and eat.”

Amelia spoke and Leo stopped insulting David.

“Everyone, thank you for coming to my birthday party. Everyone here is my best friend. Thank you for taking care of me at South River Univeesity. I'll finish my drink first to show you respect.”

After Amelia said that, she lifted her cup and finished all her beer. Everyone at the scene also raised their cups to drink.

“Everything, eat. Once we are done here, there will be more entertainment waiting for you guys.”

However, Leo was angry the entire time of this meal. Since David is the latest superstar in the limelight of South River University, of course, there are plenty of girls around him. There were a lot of girls who came to toast him and of course, David did not want to refuse them, so he would drink for all of them.

But, something's weird. Before this, David's alcohol tolerance was very low and he would faint after two bottles of beer, let alone liquor. He's basically not going to touch things that are difficult. However, he drank so much alcohol today, yet nothing happened to him.

Is this one of the benefits after his body is upgraded by the system?

Is he immune to alcohol?

After dinner, Leo and Jacob, two of Amelia's pursuers, take everyone to a private room at the Fuller Golden Sands Entertainment Center. They have booked this place before.

David wants to leave, but Amelia pays special attention to him so he doesn't get a chance to do so. After he entered the private room, he saw a huge cake with 21 layers that was almost as tall as a human. Because today is Amelia's 21st birthday.

“Wow! A very big cake! It's the first time I've seen something like this."

“Very romantic!”

The girls exclaimed in admiration.

“‘How about that? Amelia, I bought this cake specifically for you.” Leo said.

“Thank you, Leo!” Amelia said with gratitude.

“I too. I spent a lot of time and effort to get this private room! Fuller Golden Sands is the best entertainment center in River City and you cannot book a private room of that size without a connection.” said one of the other pursuers, Jacob, praising his achievements.

"Thank you very much, Jacob!” Amelia quickly thanked him as well.

"Make a request now."

Amelia closed her eyes and began to make requests. Since they had just had dinner, they pushed the cake to one side after Amelia made her request. They will only eat after everyone is hungry again after they have fun. At this moment, Leo took out a box and placed it in front of Amelia.

She said, “Amelia, today is your birthday, so I prepared a simple gift for you. I hope you can take it.”

Amelia took the box.

"Amelia, open. Let's see what Leo gave you.”

"Yes, open! With Leo status, we want to know what he will give you.”

Amelia opened the box after several girls instigated it. Then, they saw the crystal necklace lying quietly inside the box.

“Amelia, I chose this necklace just for you. Do you like it?” ask Leo.

Amelia took out a crystal necklace and the receipt fell out of the box. Leo did this intentionally. He wanted everyone to see the value of this crystal necklace so that everyone would be envious.

“Wow, this crystal necklace is worth 280 thousand dollars? That's very expensive!”

“Let me see! Let me see! Wow, that's right! Leo, you are so generous!”

Everyone present was surprised that Leo could casually give a necklace for 280 thousand dollars.
